Скачать или смотреть Smokie - Livin’ next door to Alice.

“Living Next Door to Alice” is one of the most iconic songs by the British rock band Smokie, originally released in 1976 as a single and later included on the album Midnight Café (1976). Written by Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman, the song tells the bittersweet story of unspoken love and lost chances, centered around a man who has lived next door to Alice for 24 years without ever telling her how he feels.

The song became a massive international hit, reaching No. 1 in several European countries and turning into one of Smokie’s signature tracks. Its simple storytelling, memorable chorus, and emotional delivery helped make it a staple on radio stations and dance floors for decades.
The song has been covered many times, most famously by Gompie in 1995 with the crowd-chant version “Alice (Who the F*** Is Alice?)”, which brought the song back into the charts.

Released in 1976.
