  • Billy Boy from HampshireWhat a super song and what a woman...every mans dream of what a woman can stir a mans attention
  • André from CanadaI can't stand Céline Dion's version. To my ears, emotionally and musically, Laura Branigan'n version is just...perfect. Her voice is breaking at times and it gives the whole song an incredible depth.
  • Mike Garner from Manchester EnglandOne of the best songs ever, it's up there with the greats.
  • W.ohlson from N.z.A beautiful song with power and real meaning of aroha.
  • Louis from MaltaThis is an incredible singer singing an incredible song.
  • Robert Harris from WalesThis was the last gold disc for selling a million copies in the UK
  • Kawish Abbasi from Ca., Usa.I agree with an earlier comment by Allan, and protest why name of Jennifer Rush was not taken when the song was arranged for Celine Dion , in America. I , personally, like by Jennifer more than by Celine Dion, cause that gives out more passion.
  • Alan from Sault Ste. Marie, OnI find it amazing how the same song can reach #1 in England and not even crack the top 40 in the US. Yet Celine Dion's cover goes to #1 in ' 94 and it doesn't hold a candle to the original that reached can you believe # 57. Go figure.
  • Dave from Cardiff, WalesJennifer Rush's music career may have fizzled out because of her stage-name - use the same name as one of the biggest rock bands of the era (in this case the Canadian rock band Rush) and your asking for trouble... For the record, she also collaborated with Michael Bolton as well as Elton John, but still couldn't match the success of that one uber-hit...
