This song helped me to get through a difficult time during my youth, as a 16 year old who had just recently lost a parent to leukemia in 1985. Thank you, Howard Jones. ❤

Howard's vocal register at this age very impressive. This song is timeless. Thank for all these years, and all to come.

This rendition is pure perfection, and is exactly what we all need right now. I wish everyone on here happiness and good health!

Fantastic rendition of this masterpiece! Howard Jones is one of the greatest, and sadly quite underrated songwriters in modern time. He deserves a lot more recognition than he gets.

A Howard Jones fan since forever. Love his songs. Born in 69 and my high school years in the early 80s wouldnt have been the greatest without these songs. Such good memories. Keep going Howard. Oliver from Cape Town.

I saw Howard Jones about 5 yrs ago. Dude opened for Thompson Twins, but completely STOLE THE SHOW!! WOW! Every single song. He came out wearing an orange suit and playing an orange Keytar! Howard Jones is a living legend.

Wow STILL has an AMAZING voice and HUGE MASSIVE talent!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽♥️🥰

Thank you Howard Jones for this beautiful GEM that has been on replay for my family and that has helped me and many others get through life. We are FOREVER grateful 💙💙💙

That's my favourite line, too.

Such a beautiful rendition of the song. When a song translates so well to solo piano you know it's a keeper

Still love your voice you'll always be the greatest 💕 from Misty from tennessee I was born in 80s and I grew up still Loving your music and your voice today

This version touched my heart very deeply...lovely version Mr Jones...you are being a blessing in my life...that's why the 80s will never gonna died...wishing U all the best and many blessings!!

My favorite lines of any song ever : And do you feel scared , I do but I won’t stop and faultier. Makes so happy knowing you Mr. Howard Jones like those lines too.

Beautiful version of an awesome song, a Hope candle for these hard times. Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷❤️

I love Howard Jones and have done ever since I first heard him in the early 80s. Gentleness and strength, wisdom and youth, creativity and sincerity, with always that something eternal, life-giving in him and his music. This performance of a lovely song is gorgeous. I miss the great red hair but hey, things can only get better. :-) (And I have subscribed. Thank you, Mr Howard Jones.)

Thank you Dad for giving me your copy of Human's Lib. Changed my life!

I am your most loyal fan, Mr. Jones ! 🙏🎤🎹 From 🇷🇺 with love

Sir theres a reason you're still around. That was well done!!!!

You’ve been my hero since I was 16 years old all these decades later I am happy you’re still around, HoJo :)

Howard Jones still sounds great! Music of the 80's everyone tries to claim this generation as their own I'm glad I grew up hearing these songs on the radio! Howard Jones is underrated and timeless!!

Utterly beautiful. Very scared but you have been with me since I was 12. Was at Wembley, love you Howard xxx

Thanks, Mr. Jones for Your music and sharing it with us. Music critics said that the Eighty's was made up of electronics and no good musicians. That's non the case of Howard Jones. Great singer, excellent pianist and a very talented arranger. Have a good life, Mr. Jones and God bless You.

Howard Jones lives in my heart and soul! This dude probably does not know the extend of the influence his music had on us back then! Shedding a tear or two reminiscing his awesomeness!

Jumped up, clapped my hands, and stopped my feet! This song has always lead me when I was taking a big leap. I was contemplating a move to SF as a small town kid from Rhode Island. This played on my Pandora on my Jet Blue flight. I knew this was the right move... and it was. Thank you. Howard Jones!

Great composer, great performer, person of great quality and yet humble .. His music accompanied my best moments and pushed me, after so many years, to learn to play the piano, to be able to perform what I had only been able to hear .. A heartfelt thanks, Howard

THAT line, is my favourite line from this song too. Brilliant song. Brilliant performance, Mr Jones. Thank you. 🙏🏽

Best sounds of the 80s always loved to hear Howard jones

I really love these stripped down versions of Howard's catalogue

The original version inspires me to push through. This version made me tear up, because, at his age he pushed through the fears and did it. And is still so fantastic. Which I find more than inspiring. It makes me HOPEFUL. Thank you for posting. Such incredibly beautiful music

Killer performance, Howard. You still sound incredible, and what a cool salsa interlude surprise for the listener! Keep up the great job! Best wishes from a long-time fan from sunny So. California.

Howard, your voice is astonishingly well preserved; I'm a 60s child and original fan from Australia - youve still hot it!

When this song came out, I was in my sophomore year in highschool, and was in my last days of being in an ICU ward. I was in a horrific car accident, was cut out of the car I was in. Both lungs punctured, crushed chest, a car part imbedded in my skull, fractured vertebraes in my spine, and crushed internal organs. A nurse in the ICU brought a little Walkman cassette tape player with a Howard Jones tape inside it, played the songs as I laid in a medically induced coma. This song was the song I remembered that got me through that dark moment in my life. Howard, your music helped me heal. Much love man.

Thank your for sharing James. No doubt that God Himself was with you through it. He has sent Jesus that if you repent and believe in Him you shall be saved. You see, He is the One who gave us life and although we have all sinned against Him, He still sent us His Son Jesus. Jesus took your sin upon Himself and laid His life down for you. If you repent and believe in Him then you shall be saved.

Voice still sounds awesome

Just LOVE this rendition. So very beautiful. Thank you Howard 🩵

I have listened to this song for years . Lately i listen to this song daily. Please keep putting out the hote Howard Jones. Love the song as well . xxx

A true musical genius, enjoyed his music back then and now

Still absolutely amazing.I love this version. Thank you so much for this wonderful song.

love it , this takes me right back to my 1980s in my bedroom with my pal julie playing our records xxx

This is one of my favorites from Howard... and this live take is truely well played. Thanks Howard!

Never fear age’d voice … talent has no end … you brought me back in time again ❤❤❤

Been a fan since "Human's Lib", his first album, 1984! What talent! Howard you are fantastic!

I have to agree with the person in the comments below me born in 69 yes I'm owed but I'm from the 80s and I loved every single minute of it and this is one of my favorite songs that came on the radio when I was a teenager back in those days I still listen to the song I will still Rock to the song and I will play this summer to the day I die let me get onto one more thing my prayers go out to everyone in the world due to this nasty virus that's out there lots of people dying we have to hold our heads up I Stand Tall be proud and continue to be safe someday we'll get back to our normal but right now I'll just say things will get better and just put on some music to listen to be spirits take care of everyone God bless be safe

Age is only a number I suppose, but I just had to bring up the fact that this man is 65 years old in this video. He is truly an awe-inspiring human being to look up to. "What Is Love" is my favorite of all the hit songs from him.

Thanks for this gift! Me too of the 69 …. Me too love him in the green years of my life!

Great vocals after all these years. Such a great version but man the original was one of the great songs from the 80s. Howie you are still superb 👌

Discovered him just a couple of months ago (through the video of performance with Nik Kershaw who's one of my 80s favorites), but I've already fell in love with his songs. This version of the song is very beautiful and gentle. Has a very different mood than the original.

I saw Howard years ago live he was fantastic he was and is one of the top artists from the 80s without a doubt …

We need this hope for today for sure with all that is going on in the world 🌎 here we need hope and prayers

i was a teen through most of the 80s and to hear this song performed moments both good in bad in my life in the 80s play in my head in slow motion like retroflection it was unexpected

Jesus wept. We are simply not worthy. Thanks Howard.

..I still remember it was around February or March 1985, it was a rainy day in North London. I ran home from primary school because my uncle had bought the single, couldn't wait to watch the record spin round as "things can only get better" filled the house. This rendition is timeless...44 years' old and I'm as mesmerised now as I was back in 1985. There is something timeless and very special about the music of HJ...

This version is fantastic!
