I always loved this song and at the time my girlfriend was seeing another guy behind my back and it hurt me but if she hadn't I wouldn't have met my wife who has been my rock for twenty two years and had two awesome kids!! Thank you Chris love your music!!
When the CD single of this song came out, I would blast in replay over and over. Finally, my downstairs neighbor came to complain. I told him sorry about the noise. He said he didn't mind the noise, but maybe give Chris Isaak a rest!!
Just to show u what a cool guy he is. Caught hit in a concert years ago. He was on stage singing and all the young girls were close dancing. So l told my wife to go up and get crazy, she was shy and refused. So at this point Chris comes off stage singing on the audience. On be knowest to my wife l point over my wife's head without her knowing so Chris acts like he doesn't see me, but the next he sneaks i behind the wife and starts singing to her guitar in hand. Talk about a deer in the headlights. Total class and dude did not miss a beat. Also for those who like Chris's check out the showtime Chris's Isaac show
This song takes me all the way back to my childhood...So many wonderful memories I had of the 1990's. Life was well relaxed back then compared to what it is now.
Yeah. I just remember this being on the T.V. and the radio all the time. It's catchy and short. You can hum it in the shower. That is the recipe for a good song.
Вы не представляете как я сейчас плачу, реву просто. Лет 25 назад эту песню я слушала на кассете, которую записывали с прямого радиоэфира, названия не было, кассета затерялась и всё. Бол6я эту песню нигде и никогда не слышала! Где только и как только я её не искала... Думала уже что я её выдумала, и не было её никогда. Сейчас подсказали что в ютубе можно напеть в поиске... Этот ролик был первым! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Full disclosure. I went through a very difficult separation (and ultimately a divorce) around the time this song was popular. My wife had cheated on me, and for obvious reasons I listened to this song over and over during that time. This song still resonates with me to this day. My ex-wife and I have both moved on and had wonderful lives, but this song (as beautiful as it is) is still a haunting reminder of that sad period in my life. And as painful as that time was, I still love this song. And I think I always will.
Saw Chris and Silvertone last night in Glenside PA. Chris’s voice is still awe inspiring and the band is one of the best I’ve ever heard live. Go see him if you can.
Der meist unterschätze Künstler und Interpret ever. Super Songwriter und Sänger ein echter Rock n‘ Roller der alten Schule🎙🎸🎙👍🏻well done Chris einer deiner besten Songs meiner Meinung Grüße aus good old Germany 😉und mach noch lange weiter🙏👍🏻
Saw chris live this evening at mt duneed estate. Bloody brilliant performance 👏 wicked game baby did a bad bad thing and this classic was on show with pretty woman another awesome cover!
I love that part at 1:40-1:58. It really stood out to me the way he sang "If you don't cry at night the way I do." That's what I thought even back in 1995 when I was thirteen and I used to watch this video. Reminds me how I had taste that set me apart from other kids even at that age.
Chris Isaak authored “Somebody’s Crying” (1995) after splitting from a girlfriend. He missed her desperately but felt that he had to keep his heartbreak silent. The American singer-songwriter recalled : “If you were looking at my life at the time, it looked like everything was okay. That I was having a good time. But in actuality, I was missing her more than ever. I like the first lines of the song : ‘I know somebody and they cry for you / They lie awake at night and dream of you / I bet you never even know they do, but / Somebody’s crying.’ Not only are you saying that this is happening, but it’s kind of in a secret way. IT’S LIKE A LITTLE KID’S WAY OF SAYING THINGS. MOST OF US ARE AS TERRIFIED OF LOVE AS LITTLE KIDS ARE TERRIFIED OF THE WORLD. Little kids come up to you and say, ‘I know someone who loves you’ or ‘I know someone who likes you.’ They say it like, I’m not going to really come out and say it. And for adults, it’s probably the same way. They never really get beyond that fear.” Isaak revealed that he composed this piece while LOCKED AWAY IN A CLOSET : “I had just broken up with someone and hadn’t been out of the house much. A friend of mine was having a party and as soon as I arrived, I realized I didn’t want to be there. The house had this big walk-in closet in the hallway, so I went in, shut the door, and sat down underneath the coats. There was a guitar leaning against the wall in the back. I started tuning it up and wrote ‘Somebody’s Crying.’” 💔🎶💔
Fun fact- the woman in this video is Jennifer Rubin. She was the original model for Calvin Klein Obsession and played Taryn on Nightmare on elm street 3.
Summer of '95. Had me a fiancee who thought we needed a break. She actually left to do a peace corp type gig. I was devoted, she treated me like crap, so I backed out with class and dated other people as she wished. She decided that she wanted to get married after all and I agreed, but she had created distrust and a girl I'd been dating told me I could do better, I left the toxic fiancée and married my friend. Still with my friend 24 years later and 2 beautiful daughters. This song was released during that period in my life. It's sad story made me stronger.
such a talented dude, his cool act comes across really unforced it just seems like it's him, and this is one of the greatest songs ever I think, bonus for an awesome little film to go with it. I wonder who did it for him. I hope you live for a thousand years Chris! keep rockin!
I know somebody and they cry for you They lie awake at night and dream of you I bet you never even know they do but somebody's crying I know somebody and they called your name A million times and still you never came They go on loving you just the same I know that somebody's trying So please return the love you took from me Or please let me know if it can't be me I know when Somebody's lying, I know when somebody's lying I know that somebody's lying, I know that somebody's lying Give me a sign and let me know we're through If you don't love me like I love you But if you cry at night the way I do I'll know that somebody's lying So please, return the love you took from me Or please, let me know if it can't be me I know when somebody's lying, I know when somebody's lying Oh I Oh I
@@docsavage8640 actually yes. I'm hard of hearing and I always look for the lyrics so don't be one of those people who like to piss on other people's comments
Bomdia Chris Isaak esse clipe ficou muito lindooooo parabéns suas músicas são muito lindas um clássico parabéns Deus abençoe nossas vidas e família hoje e sempre beijos no seu coração 😘❤️🥰❤️❤️.👏🏼🐑🙏🏼🙌🏼😘🥰🥰❤️🌹😋🎁
Another classic by Chris Isaak. An artist who is loved by many but has not received the acclaim he is due, IMHO.
true
Not true, Chris is highly regarded around the world..
I always loved this song and at the time my girlfriend was seeing another guy behind my back and it hurt me but if she hadn't I wouldn't have met my wife who has been my rock for twenty two years and had two awesome kids!! Thank you Chris love your music!!

@@jaykoval5957 EXACTLY!
Funny enough this song came out when my boyfriend and I were breaking up.
Lies again? Cry Like Baby SC
The voice is unmistakable. One of the best ever.
I always thought it was Roy orbinson
@@Rudeboi0417A blend of Roy and Elvis. Buddy, my young lady friend left me so I'm living the song lyrics.
This song just came into my head after not hearing it or even thinking about it for decades - love how music can do that
Same here. I've been listening to it everyday for the past 3 weeks
Same. And I wasn't even an adult when this came out. Early teens maybe.
Same here, idk why
Awsome
Chris has One of the most beautiful voice I've ever heard, love him!
Excellent performer. That voice is amazing.
And he puts on a great show!
My only complaint about this song is that it is too short and I have to keep hitting replay.
When the CD single of this song came out, I would blast in replay over and over. Finally, my downstairs neighbor came to complain. I told him sorry about the noise. He said he didn't mind the noise, but maybe give Chris Isaak a rest!!
lol
I feel ur pain. Why doesn’t CZcams have an auto repeat function.
Glad I'm not the only one who kept hitting replay. I still do.❤🎵🎶
Glad I’m not the only one. I rediscovered this today and hit replay at least 50 times while cleaning house.
Just to show u what a cool guy he is. Caught hit in a concert years ago. He was on stage singing and all the young girls were close dancing. So l told my wife to go up and get crazy, she was shy and refused. So at this point Chris comes off stage singing on the audience.

I saw him in concert once and he is so funny with his audience interactions, glad you and your wife had fun!
That is so awesome
Well damn this still sounds as fresh and amazing and resonant as it did back in 1995. Heck ya.
Yes, perfect! As the whole "Forever Blue" album 👌🏻
This song takes me all the way back to my childhood...So many wonderful memories I had of the 1990's. Life was well relaxed back then compared to what it is now.
Yeah. I just remember this being on the T.V. and the radio all the time. It's catchy and short. You can hum it in the shower. That is the recipe for a good song.
Boy you ain't kidding.
Man, I miss the 90's.
best part is that this comment was written before covid and the ukraine war lol
I know when somebody lying
He really don't get the credit he deserves this song is nothing short of a masterpiece.

I grew up in the 1960's, and this song reminds me so much the "feel" of the music then. Beautiful.
Rockabilly
Real music by a real musician/songwriter/artist. No auto tune just immaculate performance. Thank you Mr Isaak

His voice has healing powers
Make a video on how you ended up with that name.
Or it breaks you apart
Damn!! Now this song is what music is all about!! The feelings and emotions this song stirs up. And his voice is perfection. Lovin this in 2022!!!
Saw Chris and Silvertone last night in Glenside PA. Chris’s voice is still awe inspiring and the band is one of the best I’ve ever heard live. Go see him if you can.
Chris Isaak hypnotizes me. There is a certain lilt in his voice that is so attractive.
I love that this is distinctly Chris Isaak yet also distinctly 90s. What a great song off a superb album.
I think this is an awesome track
Well I know this is an awesome track.😜
The second coming of Roy Orbison...I love Chris' music. I loved him with Wilsey (RIP) even more.
It hits you as an adult when you went through what Chris is singing about. 😭
im an adultchild so don’t know
@@gracie99999 We're all adult children. I mean if someone ended their romance.
My favorite artist nobody's heard of. Wonderful Lyrics and Voice
Matt Mahoney whaddya mean nobody heard of Chris Isaak?
You CAN'T be serious! I've been singing his songs at karaoke for years.
You know that "Wicked Games" was a massive hit on MTV when it came out, right?
Wow
Since b&b
Of the best artists who know very little.
For Chris Isaak, he is one of the best artists in the world
Der meist unterschätze Künstler und Interpret ever. Super Songwriter und Sänger ein echter Rock n‘ Roller der alten Schule🎙🎸🎙👍🏻well done Chris einer deiner besten Songs meiner Meinung Grüße aus good old Germany 😉und mach noch lange weiter🙏👍🏻
The Undisputed Truth somebody's lying
YES YES THIS is going on every day now!
Whole song is really moving and beautiful and musical
Love the high notes at the end, just kills it
Was listening to Chris' tracks and I haven't heard this 1. Dude's so talented.
I’d like to spend a day as Chris Isaak circa 1994 👍
One of my favorite songs by one of my favorite artists, especially live!
Saw chris live this evening at mt duneed estate. Bloody brilliant performance 👏 wicked game baby did a bad bad thing and this classic was on show with pretty woman another awesome cover!
Wow I used to LOVE this song. I don't know why it just popped in my head but I'm very glad.

needs more regonition in country/rock genre of music. Love his voice too, so calm!

Listening to this track in the 90s helped me overcome the loss of a long-term relationship. Cheers Chris
I'll never tire of hearing this song.🎶🎵🎶❤❤❤❤
Forever Blue!
A voice like melted honey !!!!
Cross between Presley and Orbison.

Dec. 2021 just saw this video for the first time!! Always loved him and all his music, but just never saw this video. I'm 58!
Timeless classic by a legend back ed up by a brilliant band.
I discovered this song when I was 10. It was on a compilation album my cousin had and i fell love with it.
One of my favorite song and my idol chris isaak
such an amazing, angelic, perfect voice
I love Chris isaacs vocal ,he is a beautiful singer
Bring back lots of memories of 1995/96
Wish somebody could share Chris Izaak's tracks to the world his songs is so ❤️👌🏻
He always makes me feel good. I don't know what it is, but I feel like he knows me.
Still a killer of a song that's right up there with the best of Roy Orbison.
A beautiful song.
Listen to this whole album. He was hurt bad.
yep, he was.
His harmonies are as smooth as Macallan 25.
All the interviews I see him in he seems like a genuinely nice dude.
Beautiful music and perfection!!
I used to hear this song all the time on family car trips. I always get chills when I hear it today
Words are so damn powerful...no one else can sing this a story about raw feelings and emotions......
such a talented dude, his cool act comes across really unforced it just seems like it's him, and this is one of the greatest songs ever I think, bonus for an awesome little film to go with it. I wonder who did it for him. I hope you live for a thousand years Chris! keep rockin!
Just another great song from Chris Isaak!
One of the best live performers I have seen. A true showman.
Wonderful voice ,wonderful song.
Always had a crush on Jennifer Rubin starting from her role in The Crush
You should have seen her in nightmare on elm street 3
God, almost gets me back into unrequited love feels.
Absolutely love this
I just got transported to the magical, amazing, fun, HOT ☀️ Summer of 1995
0:54 Chris Penn - RIP
Rip to Chris Penn who's in the video at 54 seconds carrying the surfboard
Could listen to this incredible song forever.
Beautiful song.
I know somebody and they cry for you
They lie awake at night and dream of you
I bet you never even know they do but somebody's crying
I know somebody and they called your name
A million times and still you never came
They go on loving you just the same I know that somebody's trying
So please return the love you took from me
Or please let me know if it can't be me I know when
Somebody's lying, I know when somebody's lying
I know that somebody's lying, I know that somebody's lying
Give me a sign and let me know we're through
If you don't love me like I love you
But if you cry at night the way I do I'll know that somebody's lying
So please, return the love you took from me
Or please, let me know if it can't be me
I know when somebody's lying, I know when somebody's lying
Oh I
Oh I
Is this for the benefit of all the deaf viewers?

One complaint about this song- its too short!
Jennifer Rubin amazing actress ❤
Roy is that you ?
Holy Smokes Chris ! Sounding like you are recording with Roy Oberson !! I hear him in the room with ya !!
Uded to have this on cassette in the 90s.
I adore this song..... 20 years ago I was the driver.... 2 brothers their girlfriends..... and friends.... this song was on tape
The summer this came out- I remember Mtv and CMT playing it. Just one of those songs that crossed genres.
Please tour ASAP Chris and Band!!!!!🥰🥰😘😘
Phenomenal song and great "short promotional film" too!
Beautiful!
Been looking for this video for 1000 years!!
Absolutely a beautiful song so many years later!
I always thought his musical style reminds me of Roy Orbison's! 💯 Awesome singer!
