Music Video Spotlight: Some Guys

What’s black, white and red all over? Most of the music video for “Some Guys Have All The Luck”. This one filmed to accompany the 1984 Top 10 single off Camouflage is a work of art, literally. Between Rod Stewart dancing in a striped and polka dot world, we catch glimpses of art, color and, always essential, saxophones. Caution: We can’t guarantee you’ll get the “woos” out of your head.

Sing along with the lyrics and watch below!

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain

Alone in a crowd on a bus after working, I’m dreaming
The guy next to me has a girl in his arms, my arms are empty
How does it feel when the girl next to you says she loves you?
Seems so unfair when there’s love everywhere but there’s none for me

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain
Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo

Someone to take on a walk by the lake Lord, let it be me
Someone who’s shy, someone who’d cry at sad movies
I know I would die if I ever found out she was foolin’ me
You’re just a dream, and as real as it seems, I ain’t that lucky

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain

All of my friends have a ring on their finger, they have someone
Someone to care for them, it ain’t fair, I got no one
The car overheated, I called up and pleaded, there’s help on the way
I called you collect, you didn’t accept, you had nothing to say

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain

But if you were here with me
I’d feel so happy, I could cry
You are so dear to me
I just can’t let you say goodbye
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo, Woo woo woo

Music Video Spotlight: Baby Jane

Welcome to our first Music Video Spotlight where we’ll take a look at the music videos Rod Stewart has made throughout his career. First up, 80s favorite “Baby Jane”

“Baby Jane” debuted on 27 May, 1983 and has been doing anything but leaving us hanging since. This was the first single off his June ’83 release Body Wishes. “Jane” was the #1 song on six different charts around the world.

The video features Rod’s at-the-time band between shots of oh-so-eighties filters, camera angles, color-blocking, spandex and shoulder padded heartache. Case and point:

LYRICS

Baby Jane, don’t leave me hangin’ on the line
I knew you when you had no one to talk to
Now you’re moving in high society
Don’t forget, I know secrets about you
I used to think you were on my side
But now I’m no longer sure,
I wish I knew what I know now before

When I give my heart again, I know,
It’s gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when, I know,
It’s gonna last forever

Baby Jane, don’t it make you feel sad
Just when I thought that we were winning
You and I were so close in every way
Don’t time fly when you’re loving and laughing
I’ve said goodbye so many times
the situation ain’t all that new
Optimism’s my best defense
I’ll get through without you

When I give my heart again, I know,
It’s gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when, I know,
It’s gonna last forever
I won’t be that dumb again, I know,
It’s gotta last forever
When I fall in love again, I know,
It’s gonna last forever

Baby Jane, I’ve said all I want to say
Go your own way, don’t think twice about me
Cos I’ve got ideas and plans of my own
So long darling, I’ll miss you, believe me
The lesson learned was so hard to swallow
but I know that I’ll survive
I’m gonna take a good look at myself and cry

When I give my heart again, I know,
It’s gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when, I know,
It’s gonna last forever
When I fall in love again, I know,
It’s gotta last forever
I won’t be that dumb again, I know,
It’s gonna last forever
