Video Description
This is a video I edited of my favorite artist Johnny Gill. It's his video for the song Half Crazy which was released back in 1985 on his album titled Chemistry. I do not own the rights to this video or the audio that has been used to give listeners a chance to truly hear how good this guy sound at such an early age. Enjoy
Thanks for watching!

Health Update:
On Thursday August 11th, I had surgery to give me the ability to breathe through my nose like everyone else. I was born primarily breathing out of my mouth. The surgery was successful, but because of it I can not move much. And will not be able to take care of my family for some months to come.
Fast forward to February 12th 2024. I was t-boned at an intersection by a truck that ran the red light. My suv was totalled and I am being told I have a TBI...Among other things like this ringing that won't go away. Whiplash, concussion, bluging discs, etc
If you find it in your heart to bless me and my family with anything at all. I would greatly appreciate it. If not, that's ok too
Thank you and be blessedđ

Who still listening to this in 2024 besides me!!!
I am still listening to this song
I still listen to this one and him and stacey
Great song
Me I love this song
Been listening to this for weeks now lol. I thought I was the only one
I'm still listening to this beautiful song by Johnnie Gill
In 2024.đ¶đ¶đ”đ”đ”đ”đ”đ¶â€
Same
I don't care what no one say he sang his ass off he is in the top ten R&B Singer bringing back memories of me leaving My Girl back home in Jamaica
People are half crazy if they don't like this song
đđ
Here, I am a 70 year old woman, with tears streaming down my face listening to this heartbreaking song!đą
Me too...đą
He was only 18 singing like a man who been around for a long time dealing with heartbreak. That's why Johnny Gill is one of my all time favorite singers.
It was also one of the reasons that Cotillion, the label he was signed to when he recorded this album didn't know how to market him. He had such a mature singing voice for one so young.
I think when he originally sung this he may have been younger đą. I'm going through a divorce dammm
Amazing voice.
My reply is very late, but if person is capable of feeling real thing to an opposite sex it is exactly those years, about 16-20 years. Later it's becoming harder due to hart being hardening.
I love myself some Johnny Gill. I absolutely love this song.
back in the days when life is simple and falling in love is true.
In my humble opinion, this is Johnny Gill 's best solo song ..... His vocals on this song are absolutely phenomenal !!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree. With "Maybe" being a close 2nd, for me.
I totally agree
I totally agree đđœ
My favorite song from Johnny
@@cislynjames869 indeed
One of the most slept on. Artists
âđđ
Miss Wills .. just tragic pure raw talent..keep winning JG
Facts! I was 12 living in Jamaica when I 1st heard this great song...
He's underrated. To me.... he deserves a Grammy.
Exactly!!!!
People donât sing like this any more! This is when music tugged at your heart and soul! Them artists would have you mad at someone you didnât even know, just because they were heartbroken, lol! This is the kind of record you put on and lay across your bed and think about your crush while you stare at the posters on your wall.
He had the voice of a 40 year old man even as a teenager.
Too grown đâ€â€â€
I was a teenager when this song came out and it is still one of my favorite songs of all time. This is the best of J G songs. This song makes me nostalgicâŠbeautiful nostalgia.
in 80's Shari headley was just the most beautiful girl of the world đđđđ
I love this song am playing it all the time I love johnny
Johnny is the greatest vocalist of the last 40 years in R&B hands down.
I wish I could like this 100 times
Johnny Gill! Is A Living Legendđ, & He Took New Edition From" Boys To Men"!
Still one of the greatest love songs of all time. That grown ass voice on a 19 year old. Never gets old.
Cali Livin actually he was 15;
naw 19
this came out in 1985 from the Chemistry album and he was born in 1966
@@dr.heathcliffhuxtable9843 he was 19 he ain't 15
@@markwilkins9708 LOL yup I was 17. Had my first job that year.
15 !!!! Dont u remember Perfect Combination ? With Stacy Lattisaw
Dude had this voice in high school
Written by the late Linda Creed teamed up with Thom Bell back when she was close to dying of Breast Cancer. Linda Creed was a White girl from Philly who was a major piece to the establishment of beautiful and meaningful R&B music. Mrs Creed wrote the Greatest Love of All first sung by George Benson for the Muhammad Ali movie called the Greatest and then resung by the awesome late Whitney Houston as well as You make me feel Brand New, Betcha by Golly Wow sung by the Stylistics and Old Friend sung by Phyllis Hyman and how can we forget Rubber Band Man sung by the Spinners and so many more bangin songs.
Linda Creed is an amazing songwriter and legend. May she continue to rest in Peace
Listen!! White Women can write a MF Love song!! BERRY WHITE love ballads are beautiful.
Oh wow đ
Im from Philly and i know all about Linda Creed she was AMAZING, and without her the Sound Of Philadelphia would be different
Thank u for this knowledge
He sung the Hell out of this damn song. One of the saddest songs I've ever heard. You know a song is good when it makes you mourn a broken heart that you don't have.
AlabamaPowell Yes, I am crying right now! One of my favorites from my teen years....
Amen. His voice is amazing. But how do you market it? Thank goodness for New Edition. Otherwise no new music from Mr. Gill.
AlabamaPowell
Saddest song ever
Half crazy
I did a rare laugh out loud just now..
Songs like this make you wonder, was JG ever young! He came out the box sounding grown and that never changed! Peace!
+LGKids : lol So true
He was sixteen in this video sounding like Teddy P lol
@@RTDavis0503 He was 19.
Lol
hell sounding i thought you were going to say looking grown! He looks the same when young and now older

Mr. Gill had an "old soul". His performance when he was a teen was relevant then and still relevant today. Half Crazy . . .if you only knew.đč
Hello Sir, I'm just now reading your comment. if it was directed towards me, you're not invading my privacy; but yes, I must be discreet because the voice is who he is . . . . but no, I don't consider myself a "fan" . . . .I offer an "olive branch" to Mr. Gill as a "friend". To me there's a difference . . .a big difference. Merry Christmas to you Sir. GOD BLESS.đđčâ@gregnormal0
@gregnormal0 Best Thing!
@gregnormal0 Thank you for holding conversation with me about a very special and highly favored celebrity. Truth be told, I wish he didn't hold that status, then maybe he would be more accessible than he is. However, I am happy for his success, and truly hope he can find someone to share his success with - if he hasn't already. Because as the late , great Luther sang, a house is not a home unless you have someone to share it with. With that being said, respectfully I will not reveal where I'm from. But thank you for asking. Again, Merry Christmas đ.
That's that girl who played in Coming to America............
She was married to Play from Kid N Play †3
YEP --- and for the life of me --- I do NOT know WHY or HOW she got both jobs!
Ain't no way she was even close to being one of more beautiful black women back then!
Oh well, I guess luck plays a big part!
#sheahard4
Johnny Gill is one of the GOATS!!!!
Anointed voice!đđđđ
I still love this song!!!! Johnny a teenager but sounding like he's an adult in this video........powerful voice!
Itâs 2023 & I was listening to Rickey Smiley morning show. And he mentioned it as one of his favs! I had completely forgotten about this song. And remembered how đ„đ„it is! Iâve listed about 5xs already!! â€ïžâ€ïž
The best song and vocals ever sung.
We all have been half crazy at one time or another.
My God why dont we get songs like this anymore...
My favorite song from Johnny đAlways on repeat!!
Crista League beautiful â€â€đ„đ„
Johhny gill sung the mess outta this song.
I Agree lol
Still listening to this song in 2022 I miss these good ol days with music that had meaning
Remember when love songs like this just made you cry. This was a time when people embrace love and wanted to be in love.
True
After searching the internet looking for a decent quality video for the song and not being able to find one. I decided to take the best video I could find and sync it with audio from my CD collection. Glad you all are enjoying the finished product. A voice like his deserves to be showcased properly. :)
+thomas jameson jr : no problem
Thank you this brings back so many memories.
GREAT JOB!!! Thank you :)
Stephanie parker no problem :-)

Man, I fell in love with Johnny since hearing this song in 1985....
Whew! Johnny, Johnny, Johnny! Boy, nothing compares to your voice. Just AMAZING!!!!
This song here.....shed so many tears to this
Johnny Gill is the best solo artist. This is my favorite song by him.â€â€đ„đ„đ„
This song brings tears to my eyes đđ!!!
Iâve Always Loved This Song Since It Came OutđŻđ
Easily one of the baddest singers ever...JG.....big respect
Any you must be a Jamaican?
I love me some Johnny Gill
Me too!
This song fits exactly how I'm feeling right now. Dated a lady for 8 months and she decided to go in another direction. I don't know, I mean you treat women like queens, they try to run over you. You dog them out they chase you. Go figure. At the age of 40 you'd think that you would out grow some things.
sorry to hear... đđđ
+D. Hughes i want a guy to treat me like a queen. but i attract men who dog me out but i dont chase them
+renee randall
Not to say you deserve to be treated that way, because you don't but there are signs. Unfortunately you keep choosing these guys. Remember the woman does the choosing. If you got the man of your dreams, would you know how to treat him? Just saying. .......
+D. Hughes I know how you feel. I went through a four year relationship with young lady. I did all the right things...but still she moved away. I'm neither a dog nor a player...just a hopeless romantic who doesn't wanna be alone the rest of his life.
+Robt. Carter Deep
This is my favorite Johnny Gill song , so much emotion he makes you really fill what the song was about . Great .
amen
Gil Saunders đđŸ
And he was only teenager when a recorded this song.
linked2you exactly! He was so young it's no surprise he would continue to make such amazing meaningful music.
No one can compare to Johnny Gill.

I was going through a very bad breakup with my ex last year and I played this song and had it on repeat and I was crying and drinking a tall bottle of alcohol. I was going crazy and I just wanted to give up on love. but now a year later. I'm happy again. thank you God for keeping me here.
Justan Adams God is good
wow thats soo amazing that u didnt giveup and god was there for u lord knows i wish he was here for me right now with all my heartache and pain im going through right now dear lord please take this pain and sadness and loniess out of my life. i just want to be happy and be in love with that one special woman that will love me and neva hurt me help me dear god .
Reading this just made me a little stronger. Listening to this song. I just sent my husband some divorce papers.đą
dee lee that's heart breaking, I know you are brave enough to get through all the pain
Thank god you didn't give up time heals all wounds.
My favorite Johnny Gill song to this date.
Written by the late great Linda Creed
This Song Had Made Me Cry. Seriously, And I'm Not The Type To Cry At All, But When I Heard This Song, I Was Crying. Classic Johnny Gill,
wow
such a beautiful song. Johnny's definitely one of my favorite singers, he's so underrated. he deserves a lot more recognition, I love him nevertheless though â€ïž
Very underrated
Yes
I love this song...Johnny Gill has a dynamite voice
and here i am still listening in 2018
Iâm so mad at myself, how did i let let this gem slip through
This is one of those Lays songs...you can never hear it just once. I have to repeat at least 3 x's. I never noticed the actress from Coming To America also I didn't notice that she was a spirit in the video. Makes you feel the song even more.
On repeat on repeat on repeat on repeat
Actually...I think she appears as a "memory" in which she decided to leave him. Note that Shari (Headley) is wearing an outfit intended for when you're traveling and/or in this scenario...going away.
Johnny been putting out hit after hit for years! Beautiful Songđ
I got my hug from him at his show in Biloxi Mississippi Heâs So Sweet đ€đ€đ€đ€
Sounds just as good as it did 30 yes ago..Superb!!
Yes*

Yes! You're right! I just changed the first letter in her first name.
Oh I still LOVE Johnny's 1st hit from 1984! Still a good love jam all these decades later.

When u had to know how to sing.... miss these trained voices
#ima70sbaby
There will never be love songs ever written with such depth and passion as these songs were. In these days love meant so much. It certainly does not feel like this sort of love exist anymore â€
:) I had the pleasure of recording Johnny Gill's Vocals on "Half Crazy" at Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia, PA, with Producers - Linda Creed, Bill Neale, & Dennis Matkosky. Great Sessions! - Gene Leone Mix
How did it feel listening to him in that setting?
@@djogoku1 Johnny delivered a great Vocal performance in a very few takes. We were all very happy with his performance on "Half Crazy" in Sigma Sound that evening.
I am a big fan of Linda Creed, any photos of her at that session.
i was a teenager during that time...real old time sake...Johnny and the rest of the guys from New Edition gave me so many lovely moments with the Ladys ;-)
He's one of the gifted voices of all time! This is a beautiful song!
I LOVE this song and MR.Johnny is one of my all time favorites I LOVE HIM
I was 22 when I used to watch this on BET. It was my first introduction to Johnny Gill. Powerful ballad, incredible voice, the man has old school SOUL.
One of my all-time favorites!!
The R&b Money podcast with Johnny Gill brought me here!!
I had this cassette when I was 13 and was in love with JG since then! This song and "Don't take away my pride" OMG! Some of his best work!
Talk about pouring out ones emotion in a heartbreaking song. You can just feel the pain in JG's voice. Wonderful rendition.
One of my favorites from Johnny.
MAN! JOHNNY TORE THIS SONG UP. STILL ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS. WHY (WASN'T) THIS SONG A HIT SINGLE. WHAT MORE COULD HE HAVE DONE? MAYBE A BETTER VIDEO. MORE COLORFUL WITH MORE ACTION DOING THE SINGING. THIS IS NOW 2024. HERE I AM. LOVING IT STILL. THANK U JOHNNY. ONE OF THE GREATEST VOICE'S OF OUR TIME. THANKS FOR THIS PIST AS WELL.
Who is here in 2017 man this song is so wonderful love it oh so much đđđđ
Yea man I felt that way at one time crying for days
