Rick Springfield - What Kind Of Fool Am I Lyrics

i just heard this song for the first time. Am i the only one who notices the similarities to Whitney Houston's Greatest Love of All?

Really well-written song. Classic Rick.

Rick SUPREMO

God bless the 80's and MTV 😊😀😀😇😅

Just saw his live acoustic show with Richard Marx this week and it was fantastic! Rick has a fabulous voice and he’s so friendly!

Fabulous music and he's astonishing his going to leave his mark in the music industry a legacy for all time ♥️💖💘

This video I don't even remember! The song? Yes....but not the video.

28.1.19♥♥♥

After David Cassidy opted out of a fifth season of the Partridge Family, Rick Springfield was penciled in to replace him. That woulda been kind of cool.
But it got cancelled :(

i love rick springfield love all his i love the 80 90

❤️ HAPPY BIRTHDAY RICK! I LOVE YOU! ❤️💋

Rick, i feel so fortunate to have met you on the 80's cruise, you definitely exceeded all my expectations, you are the best, thank you for being so down to earth and sweet as ever😄💓

the first time i hear this song i was 13 yrs old and now im 43 and still loving it...

I'm all year as will too!!!!!!!!

"Did we go too wrong to ever make it right." Great line.

I was Jessie's Girl. This song hits home. I let him walk out of my life! And I have regretted it! I never have stopped loving him.Wish sometimes we were still together. What kind of fool was I!!

I will never stop loving Rick! These songs still give me chills! Classic!

I would love to know how the effects in this video were created...and I love this video.

Founded Her!!!! I don't know how? But I found Her! 😉

He always had perfect hair & the right sexy moves with that guitar😍 good singing voice too

I love this song!

Loving this song in 2018 💕🙂

He is so Gorgeous.

who is singing in the background with that very high pitched mans voice? It reminds me of the dude in Sweet lol...

God I don’t know but your sweet to me

I've always like this song--even though it's total ripoff of Gordon Lightfoot's If You Could Read My Mind.

fender rhodes

He's such a beautiful man. Perfect.

Reverse it to I AM.

My boyfriend and I broke up and I had a date with another guy and he sent me this and now we're back together and the kicker is he doesnt even like Rick Springfield just knows I love him so he went with it. 😂 I never made it to my date and things are better then they ever were.

tears ======I SAWS RICK IRVINE 1985 ---amphitheater ---if your on drugs his music wont work -----if sober i cry like now --stay way from substance --sugar too jeff

I see him in concert every year and he still sounds fantastic!

WHAT KIND OF FOOLS DIDN'T LIKE THIS SONG??? WHAT KIND OF FOOLS ARE THEY??? THE BIGGEST FOOL!!!😂😂👻😅

being high in the 80's listening to Rick are amazing memories.

haha this is like John Travolta singing Sandy. Just noticed this after all these years.

IT WAS 7 TH GRADE N MY NAME WAS RICK .MY FIRST GIRLFRIEND SHE HAD THIS CASSETTE TAPE PLAYING LEARNING HOW TO KISS HER.

new music..GLITTER DOGS///
70's style melodic rock.
album: COLORS THAT FADE
on YouTube and Spotify

So beautiful. One of my absolute favorite videosbof Rick Springfield's. And yes, that is Rick's beautiful wife Barbara playing his love interest.

Karey-Anne Foster No, it's not his wife. She was only in one video, "Don't Walk Away." It's was also the only video in which he actually kissed the girl. The rest, we're hugs, or a dance.

She was the girl in uniform at the airport gate.

LOVE ALL HIS SONGS..... THE 80"S WERE SO FUN!!!!!

Is that the same girl from the "Don't Talk To Strangers" vid?

it was and remains one of the sexiest man....that song it was my beloved

I seen Rick Springfield, loverboy,and romantics. loving the 80's. AMAZING TIME :)

too add to my songs of favorites shh I lol love this one tooooop!

that's what we call music.

True love or fool?!!! FOOL! I missed out on the most beautiful sweetheart of my teenage years. Always loved you Holly.

I so miss the good music we used to have in the USA.

WHAT IS IT about tall skinny rock boys that is just So. Damn. Sexy. Oh yea... they're playing guitar and singing music that touches our hearts, our minds, our souls.....

that's me! :)

Yes, all of the above. And...those damn sexy EYES.

AMC Gremlin in the front row. That is a rare site.

Victor Cantrell my first car was a AMC Gremlin.

what kind of fool am I !!!!!!!!!!!! I the song so dus my mom

God, I forgot how he moved in this video. Sexy beast.

he is always sexy😜

Have always loved the way he moves when he plays.... THUD.

He so awesome!!

I was a fool so many damn times I can't count! LOL! Live and learn I guess.

Right there with ya

Another song that hits home....Jessie's Girl, lived that, GOT "Jessie's" girl and then stupidly let her go..."What Kind of Fool Am I???" What's the old saying, life imitating art? When does the pain go away.......

I stupidly listened to everyone around me, instead of listening to my heart. By the time I realized how idiotic I was, it was too late. She moved away and, until recently, I lost track of her.

+Blue Box then you need to tell her how you feel . Even if it's too late .. It may give you some piece of mind . The things that haunt us most in life is the words we never say .

Very true words. I have been debating that for a long time. I just don't think I have the right to potentially disrupt her life for my feelings. Even now, I want her to be happy. When I think of contacting her, I think of Christina Perri's song, Jar of Hearts. Sheila, thank you for conversing with me on this.

+Blue Box please stop listening to the war going on between your heart and your head . And If you don't know what to do ...then think about it this way .. Your heart doesn't lie... no matter how much you want it to . Tell her

Thank you. You are correct, no matter how much I try to rationalize my position, the feeling NEVER goes away. I've had no one to talk to about this for years. My sincere thanks, I really appreciate you talking to me.

great song after all these years

Rick still hot hot 😆😆😆😆

Two days straight I've awakened to this song in my head... It's July 25, 2016! LOL

Its now Feb 2017, and its still Awesome!

I still think this is probably one of Rick's best work, musically, lyrically, and cinematically (great song, video, MTV memories).

weird cause this morn i did so has well,, a haunting song in a great way.

It is now 13 February 2019 and I had this song in my head for two days too! Out of nowhere.

Still a tearjerker after all these years ...

I Am blind I know, you look soo Different, How long can I be wrong ?

Amazing song....

Beautiful catchy (and overlooked) 80s hit. Rick was such a good looking guy, I can totally see why girls thought he was so hot back then!

still hot!

+Izusa Gaho He is most DEFINITELY STILL HOT! 😍😊

@Angela Wilson oh yeah he looks amazing for his age (almost 67).

Dude made some great 80's pop music.

best rick music video ever

Wow, you're pretty... : )

That was terrible... What I meant to say was, "You are really smart and nice!"

+DAVID SHORT She's Smart and you're Short...perfect match

Styx album

I WAS A FOOL  WISH I COULD TAKE IT BACK .....

+Crystal Hurd I hear ya Crystal.

The first 4 albums...the guy owned the first half of the 80's! Rock on, Rick.

Probably my most favourite songs full stop.

Oh! This makes me miss you terribly!!! Really hope today's generation would know you.. How incredibly awesome singer..even actor you are!!!! LOVE you even more!!!!

+MIKECNW strongly agree! I am a huge fan too! I plan to buy the color red electric guitar from his official website and learn to play all of his songs! Take care everyone! God bless you!

@MIKECNW Great that earlier brilliant singers/celebrities are today's classic & epic in entertainment world! 

.. 

@Dynamite Kid Thanks for sharing your plan on buying it! & if ever you do.. We / I look forward in seeing it as I hope you'll share it too! Rick Springfield deserved to be talked about on his music legendary! Have a great day! 

+Mel Jervoso you're most welcome, I will share that with you guys. Since I don't have the guitar at the moment I plan to play the drum part of Jessie's Girl. I just need to have it tuned first. Take care and God bless you my new pal! 

Looking forward too w/that! Have an awesome day.. as always as possible!

I can feel the pain of this song when you lose a girl that you had once loved.

Song for NM!

I wonder who she's seeing tonight
Is she really going out with him
He's not her type
And doing all the things she used to do to me
Well, I'd say something to her
But I get so jealous
When I think of her loving somebody else
That I can't think why we ever let go
I must have been crazy

Tell me What Kind Of Fool Am I
To just let go,
To just let go like that
What Kind Of Fool Am I
To lose you

She was cold sometimes
But she made me feel alive
She was such a spoiled baby
But baby, she could love
And she loved me like nobody ever will again
I thought we'd be together
When the world ran down
When the curtain fell and the lights came up
But the Gods or whatever make the world go round
Shuffled when they should have cut

Tell me What Kind Of Fool Am I
To just let go,
To just let go like that
What Kind Of Fool Am I
To lose you

Did it come too easy to the two of us
Did we go too wrong to ever make it right
Were we too busy checking out the left hand
That we didn't see the right

Tell me What Kind Of Fool Am I
To just let go,
To just let go like that
What Kind Of Fool Am I

Oh baby, please, oh baby, please come back
I meant to say in time
Baby we could work it out
But I never meant to say goodbye

Tell me What Kind Of Fool Am I
What Kind Of Fool Am I
What Kind Of Fool Am I
To lose you

Oh the 80's memories!! Sob sob sob ... I remember 31 years ago by this song.. I miss those youth times of mine.

beautiful guy like Rick shouldn't be getting old. please stay young and beautiful forever. time is so cruel to beautiful one,isn't it? but his great songs are timeless. thank god he's not a gay. by the way his wife is wonderful! and i'm so glad that Rick and his wife still don't divorce. i bet they're great parents!

Right On! Tonight in KC....

his songs are timeless

+Caitlin Mendoza She looks a little like his wife, Barbara

There is a reason this album earned Two Grammy nominations... Great Music here.

rick springfield like Elvis good looks,actor,singer still luv him he looks great but did not need any plastic s.

hard to part w/things mom i know still have my kids things

I was hoping for the Bricusse/Newley song, not this garbage. yuk

Don't feel bad, I'm 30! His stuff is great.

I love him :)

This song describes my life so much right now.... /3

Six straight weeks at #21. Back in 1982, it was not uncommon for songs to hold on to the same chart position for so many weeks ("Hold Me" by Fleetwood Mac spent seven weeks at #4; "Waiting For a Girl Like You" was at #2 for a record ten weeks.)

Can you please upload "TIger By The Tail" ? Thank you.

Can I PLEASE watch anything on youtube nowadays without some bullshit popups or advertisements?

Rick Had Swagg Unreal

I am me of course.

So what the hell are YOU doing here heckling people for what they like? Jerk.
