Eddie Kendricks~ Happy

[fingling8]

Wow, what a great beautiful tune!  Sirius satellite just beep-beeped me (I'd been on a french-canadian station) that this song has come on, on another channel. I must have heard him before, and saved his name or the tune's name. What a song! This is an ear-worm of the highest distinction! I'd heard the name Eddie Kendricks all my life, but thought he was some part of a writing team...I didn't know he was Mr. Funk Falsetto!

[MsTexas73]

@fingling8 And also one-fifth of the ORIGINAL line up of the Temptations.

[fingling8]

@MsTexas73 Ah, right...I did kind of have that little soupcon that I knew something along those lines. Thanks.

[TheWolfvpl]

Love the voice; love the look.

[buchananjosalyn]

"Ms. Texas73" I tend to be like you afraid of anything out of my control, but God said, Everything we do should show the "joy " of loving HIM, or Life itself. I'm just Happy Peace. Just Because !! Peace and Love !!!!!

[MsTexas73]

@buchananjosalyn That should say "Anymore vids" YT and WMG and etc are REALLY cracking down and SHUTTING down. I've worked TOO HARD on my other vids to have my page shut down.

[buchananjosalyn]

@MsTexas73 Now I'm on computer so I can see well. I had no intention of being on your page. I collect old song for fun. I really do not want to share with anyone, so I'm going to start this OVER and keep any music I like from getting to others. I see I made a response to a "comment. I will not do that anymore either, I do not understand Who, is cracking down on what, but my little play list will be MY Own. Thank you

[MsTexas73]

@buchananjosalyn The best way 2 do this is 2 make Ur page private& invite who U want to view Ur vids. I thought about this but realized a lot of people wouldn't get to see the vids I've already got up. So I just chose to not upload anymore vids that are music related. Feel free to view the vids I DO have posted though.What I was saying about WMG and Universal...they are the reason so many other pages are no longer on YT. They were shut down for "copyright violation". Many GOOD pages too.

[MsTexas73]

So have I. I would upload it but I'm a bit leery of putting anyone vids up.

[Brotherrhaan]

I,ve been searching for the cut, "One Tear."

[Brotherrhaan]

My favorite tune by Eddie was "all of em!"

[espejosteven]

[Nanadsyl]

[vinyl4me2]

When i see you cry my eyes won't stay dry....Love this!!!!

[lawrence9333]

This song use to comfort me as a young boy, cause I was being abused

by my stepfather.So now it makes me cry when I listen to it!!

[poeticcups]

Eddie makes you wish for yesterday when people did not mind sacrificing in order to make their loved one happy. We have gotten to be such a selfish people who seem to be intersted in only oneself. Eddie said there was nothing he would not do to make her happy. Man, I wish for the old days!

[discofever37]

Eddie was the man!!!

[mamabutts1015]

thank you

[LadyDBrooklyn]

Eddie was my fantasy from the age of 14 (1965) until he died in 1991. He was truly an amazIng entertainer and a man of integrity. The entertainment world of today knows nothing about the true talent of yesterday. We miss you Eddie!

RIP

[MsTexas73]

@MsTexas73 ☻

[sharonda772]

I remember this song as a little girl. My mom played it a lot.

[endeavor84]

The Brother was from Birmingham, Alabama, which makes me proud to be from there too. Musical Genius

[dburley]

@endeavor84 Hey! They were all from the B'ham - T'loosa corridor. Ruffin? Meridian, MS just across the state line. A freakin' crucible of singing talent that W. Central Alabama region.

[Gayle454]

What's wrong with being happy?

[totaly52]

your statement isn't realistic - but we should all be thankful. We can't always be happy with all the shit that happens in life.

[Mistymurp]

Totaly52- the statement is very realistic, life is life, it has never changed, it is the people in it that has changed. Life is how you the indiviual veiws it. Your right shit does happen, but thats what tolet tissue is for, whip it off and keep in moving. Remember we make life, life shouldn't make us!! Peace.

[totaly52]

I must admit the toliet paper line was funny. However, you gotta learn how to use your sad emotion as well. Go get yourself a good cry.

[tempts2000]

Yes we can be happy all the time just stop looking at your situations they always pass!!!!!!!!

[Mistymurp]

That statement was simply beautiful, thank you Dryrone!!

[battbrosspeedshop]

.. i think the sample track is Max Sedgley "Happy"... cant touch this original thou!!

[Spudatron]

any idea who this song was sampled by? it was something more funky... i do like this song though

[furiousstyles08]

@Spudatron Chubb Rock. Can't remember the song...

[thegr8tj]

@furiousstyles08 it's a freestyle on the third album 'book of rhymes' last song on the 1st side.... i think

[MsTexas73]

Thanks for posting!

[DISSALINED1]

it's been a minute since I heard this one. Really love it. amazing how much or little success they were able to conjour up after leaving the Temptations. Really sad to see such a powerful group go by the wayside like that. The new temps were ok, but the old school is what made it big like it is today!!! The name anyway.

[MsTexas73]

NOTE: If you cannot post something RESPECTFUL on my page...you WILL BE DELETED.

[totally52]

you have no ideal how happy you make me. i love you

[MsTexas73]

Hey...you're welcome. :^)

[totally52]

Ms Texas - I was referring to Eddie when I said, " You have no ideal how happy you makes me, and I love you." However, I thank you for posting.

[MsTexas73]

I agree.

[dresskeep]

me too i sit here and sing and act like the keyboard is a piano

[kingofdaundaworld]

that style is soo funky, in a like down home country way they got a break like on Forever Came Today by the jacksons' too Mike broke that....

[MsTexas73]

Hmmm...never thought about it that way...but yeah!

[kingofdaundaworld]

the break at 3:15 is magic.....

[dresskeep]

I play it every morning to start my day a merry heart does good like a medicine.

[MsTexas73]

Thank you!

BTW I haven't forgotten about you Eddie fans...will try to get something else up soon.

[berlynn2]

EDDIE WAS SUCH A CUTIE PIE.

[africanzionflo]

@berlynn2 -I agree with you!

[dwc432006]

This is the happy jam of all time.

[njkaz9]

i love the piano at 0:57 tight!

[kagsy81]

HAPPY came for me.

I'm here and I'm happy baby. Eddie fills up my heart with joy, his spirit is alive and well in his music.

Love ya' Eddie :)

[MsTexas73]

That's the ratings of the VIEWERS...YOU ALL have to make it five stars.

[illzlogik]

DAMN!!! They love Eddie for real on here. I really enjoy Eddie's music too. Singers like him don't exist any more and it's a damn shame.

[DENISE1CALDWELL]

remember this cut to.

[MsTexas73]

Since you all have come in and continued to comment then I shall post another FINE EDDIE tune for y'all.

[mayena]

Was there a edit or dance instrumental version of the single mainly for dj promotion?.

[MsTexas73]

I'm not sure.

[tinaloveseddie]

He is my fantasy now!!

[tinaloveseddie]

He's my fantasy now!

[MsTexas73]

[bigbankX]
