Yeah, it is. I read recently that after recording the album "Heart Shaped World" with this song on it along with several other great songs, record execs flew in to preview the album with him and just sat there with no show of enthusiasm. His career had gone nowhere to that point. But it takes some really lame idiots to be oblivious to Chris Isaak's songs at that point. They didn't belong in the record business when they were that stupid. It was a couple of years later before this song broke into national popularity when released as a single.

You never ever get tired of this song by him.

One of the most "heart-wrenching gorgeous songs written."

The absolutely sexiest song EVER! What a voice, he makes you believe what he's singing.

He’s great. George Michael on his own was unbelievable also. And I’m a rock/ metal guy. Lol

I am honestly glad the crowd is quiet in this one! This is a beautiful song 🙂

Ohmy gosh… I am in love with this song. The guitar with his voice gives me chills. I am an old lady but I guess I can still get chills. Where has he been hiding lately? Have not seen/heard him lately.😊😊

The King. My favourite song ever. Never gets old.

I love Chris Isaak and I sing this song live but I've noticed there are often subtle effects added to his voice during the high notes of this song, in this one there's a delay that's faded in. So don't beat yourself up if your voice doesn't sound as harmonically rich :)

Just great live...reminds you of a summer fling or crush. Then when you lpook at the video it really captures that feeling.

Amazing display of a magical song. Being a prog head it takes a WHOLE lot to like a love ballad, but this is so much like Roy Orbison it gives me chills and in my autumn years I have a new found fondness for this music... Oh, Well back to some Vishnu- Birds of fire...Billy C. will take away the pain... : )

His guitar player is great!

Cherie Sumner A lot of people thought and still think that it's "Woman's" but the song is not gender-based in any way, as Chris Isaak meant it to be. In other words, a broken-hearted man or woman can sing to this song. BTW, my avatar is a pic of Steve Perry back in the early 80's. My real face will always be unknown... Thanks for ringing in Cherie. You have a nice day/evening.
