What a disgrace that we had such quality in expressing ourselves and now we are reduced to vile rantings that only produce shameful behavior rather than memories and feelings. We have lost so much of what makes us awesome.
This a BEAUTIFUL love song with so much meaning of what love really means to TRUE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE that the NEGRO RACE gradually losing at a high rate of speed without brakes. PLEASE SINGERS COME BACK HOME. LETS DO THIS AS GREAT PEOPLE AND LEADERS IN THE WORLD. BROTHERS AND SISTERS. SAVANNAH, GA. RONALD LEGREE
just started college, i left my home, my town, my family, and my beautiful girlfriend, its my first time living alone, and being alone, this songs really plays on my subconscious. i get really lonely and i miss my woman so much, i'm listening to this song and writing this message with teary eyes, i know its SOOO wrong to love a stranger! i would never hurt my woman that way, because she's the only one to every care about me!, the one somebody who ever cared about me!! damn!! i miss her!!
I LOVE THIS SONG..WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT I REALLY LIKE A YOUNG MAN NAMED RICKY AND WE.....WELL YOU KNOW AND MY FAMILY MOVED AND WE DID'NT SEE EACH OTHER UNTIL 30YRS LATER...WOW...HE REMEMBERED EVERY DETAILED AND SAID HE THOUGHT OF ME OFTEN AND EVEN TRIED TO FIND ME...WE FOUND EACH OTHER VIA F.B. AND NOW WE ARE REALLY CLOSE FRIENDS..
This is so relevant even today. Love love love this ish ....
"The one somebodyyyyyyyy"
OMG I am trippin at every lyric ... Screaming owwwww to the top of my lungs .. over & over .... The ONE somebody, Love is back it is no stranger, so much better than a fanstasy. So much better than them fantasies
@Boricua186 I remember that concert, I was in Buffalo NY at the time. My mom rewarded me for doing well in school by taking me to that one. The first and only time I saw MJ live!!!
@johnex3303 a fan of the art of music should never down another form of music. all music has it's place just because you don't like a certain type of music you should not put it down.
I also heard this song this morning on Steve Harvey Morning Show and was taken back a few years. Love it...voice, words, and the orchestra/band. For real? Love it.
I heard this song for the first time (that I can remember) this morning on the Steve Harvey Morning Show and spazzed. Fell in love with it right there. Problem was, I had no idea what the song was called though I'm fairly certain it's been sampled, so I went crazy on Google for a while trying to find it. Thank God I'm here.
man o man i remember the first time i heard this song, i just want to cry, my friend had the "voice" and he song this song. God bless his soul i miss him so much he could sing this song not like jeffrey. man they dont make music like this no more. love it the old school. please stop making over the good stuff.l make your own damn music.
I was at my mothers house and she is 67 and she was playing this song and it immediatly put a smile on my face even tho it is a sad song....the only thing that i said to my mother was damm what a beautifull song is this and i am going to look for it on the net.....thnx for posting this song....they really do not make music like this anymore! <3
I really think that we've lost the art of music like this... with few exceptions, nobody is making stuff like this anymore. Another lost art of our ancestors.
The Torch is still lit and burning bright and is being carried by BoyzllMen. They are, as far as I'm concerned the only ones right now that KNOWS what REAL MUSIC is. Hell they were trained to know and understand it.
i was in the shuttle, jus leavin class when the song came on n all the students in hte shuttle started to sing it... since then i have been playin this song
Classic to the bone. Whatever happened to true R& B music, lyrics, harmony? I guess when rap came in all that went out. So very few musicians with that kind of talent. Thanks for posting.
I saw Jeffrey in concert (january 2011) in Alexandria, VA. He was awesome and most importantly, at almost 63 years of age, he was "fit," and his voice was still exceptional. I agree with some of the other comments, I think he is still the "best" male performer/talent out there. Hopefully, some of the younger folks will discover this amazing talent via YouTube, Facebook, and other social media.
@jaimejen1 Wow, almost 63, fit, still a truly beautiful voice and still doing concerts. I don't think he gets the recognition he so richly deserves. He is the soundtrack of my youth. Love Ballad is still one of the best love songs ever. He must be doing something right. Keep it going strong
I saw Jeffrey Osborne live here in Nassau Bahamas last Saturday, (January 29, 2011). Even at 62 he is still an amazing talent. He started the show with this tune and I was weak!
I love Jeffrey! He is my favorite male vocalist. He does not get the proper recognition. This is one of my favorite songs. The lyrics are so beautiful.
I said it before, and i'll say it "wun-mo-gin" can't nothin' mess wit dat good ol skool stuff. this is the stuff that makes the world spin on it's axis, the stuff that makes you wanna grab that sweet & special someone, get cozy and warm, the stuff that makes you squeeze so tight, MOAN, SCREAM, and HOLLA in extasy!
As I listen to this, I am challenged to name any comtemporary with a voice able to compete with JO. What a clear, moving, yet soothing tone with such control and tonality.....unforgettable!
The only two people who I believe that have the voice to sing anything by JO are Johnny Gill and Christopher Williams. I heard Williams sing "Love Ballad" and he was absolutely awesome.
WELL, T.W.J. WE HAD OUR RUN AND IT WAS GOOD WHILE IT LAST....... I WILL ALWAYYYYYYYYY LOVE U AND MISS U SO MUCH( IT HURTS SO BAD).......... THIS SONG WILL DIE IN MY HEART WITH U................ THANK YOU LTD/JEFFREY FOR SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG.............
this song bring back such good memories , I meet my stranger, and boy did I get lucky, wonderful man , my stranger wasn't a stranger anymore...best man I ever had...
Rap and Hip Hop can never touch the likes of this song. This is singing talent all the way. Hip Hop and Rap with all of the aids and auto tune still can't touch this. I wonder if singing will ever come back and I don't know why it left.
This song takes me back to my childhood, when music was so good and was not overly sexual or just pure nasty. Jeffrey Osbourne could sing his behind off.
Ain't that the truth! I am so glad that I was born in 1970 which enabled me to grow up and hear what REAL MUSIC is and MUST sound like. With voices like that of Jeffrey Osburne, Ronald Isley, Barry White, Patti LaBelle, and Gladys Knight, these young cats just don't know what hell they are missing. Most of today's music is just pure crap, bs, and junk!
GOD...I miss the 80's...so pure...what would life be without memories...songs like this can stop wars,hate,pain,sadness...flash a smile and pass it on...X
You got THAT right, old schooler... HEAVEN help us all, especially the young schoolers. Take us all from this pre-fab-world-and-sick-society-of-internalized hatred with its world-wide cartel of death fought out in our home, streets and hearts....PEACE!! from an old schooler.
Ooooohhhh. I haven't thought about this song since forever. What a nice memory. So it was LTD "featuring" Jeffrey Osborn at this time. I remember LTD and all their hits from the late 70's, early 80's.
This song reminds me of old friendships that were formed when i was just a little boy growing up in the 70s. A lot of people have since passed away and this song brings their faces vividly into my mind and the fun we use have racing each other down the block and all those block parties back then. I feel so bad for the youth of today because they don't have that freedom and purity without gun fights and drug wars all around them. This music takes me back to a peaceful time when life was simple.
There's no such thing as "Black" or "white" music. Music is music, it doesn't have a race, and its meant to be enjoyed by any/everyone. Its sad that only in this racist country we call america that people even make music a race issue.
If Jeffrey re-released this song today...it would be an instant hit!
This is one of those songs that you remember where you were and what you were doing the first time that you heard it...and zoned out because it is so haunting!
LOL, this song and "share my love" was the slow cuts back in '79! OLDSCHOOL LTD! they just got rid of 8 track tape players cause I had this on 8 track!!
I always got upset because Jeffrey never got the credit he deserved. Like a Walter Jackson. I'd look his name up and get Ozzy Osbourne...WTF!!! Sing on Sir Jeffrey
Great song. I kind of wish one of these current artists would make it over. I think it could have a powerful video. All these exotic, beautiful women that he lays with on all these random nights and at the end his beautiful strong, respectable looking sista comes to save him from all the foolishness and fills the void. Who should do it? Usher? Trey Songz? Tyrese? lol. I'm taking suggestions. lol
I had this song along with me when I was an exchange student in paris & london. i was so lonely & would listen to this song at nite before i went to bed, just to feel like i was home. brings back good memories. i am going back to europe this year to see some of the old places. i will bring this song again & listen to it just like i did before.
Funny you would say that; this song reminds me of my sister too. She was 28 years old when she left me in this world and that was in 1995. Thanks for sharing
You said it best!! Jeffrey Osborne is in a class ALL BY HIMSELF!!!!! These young so-called singers need to sit their young asses down somewhere with a note pad and take notes!
this song makes me think of my sister she use to play it over and over. she has been gone now for 16 yrs. after she would break up with one of her b/f.. it is a pretty song..

A lot of people have since passed away and this song brings their faces vividly into my mind and the fun we use have racing each other down the block and all those block parties back then. I feel so bad for the youth of today because they don't have that freedom and purity without gun fights and drug wars all around them. This music takes me back to a peaceful time when life was simple.

I always thought I was the only one liking this song! I always felt being a stranger liking black music as a white woman.

There's no such thing as "Black" or "white" music. Music is music, it doesn't have a race, and its meant to be enjoyed by any/everyone. Its sad that only in this racist country we call america that people even make music a race issue.

unfortunately, that's the reality. Like it or not. But I do sympathize with your beliefs.

Sometimes I feel like a black woman living like music as a white woman when I like people like James Taylor or Carly Simon...LOL!

If Jeffrey re-released this song today...it would be an instant hit!
This is one of those songs that you remember where you were and what you were doing the first time that you heard it...and zoned out because it is so haunting!
And yes, the video would be amazing!

I always got upset because Jeffrey never got the credit he deserved. Like a Walter Jackson. I'd look his name up and get Ozzy Osbourne...WTF!!! Sing on Sir Jeffrey

Great song. I kind of wish one of these current artists would make it over. I think it could have a powerful video. All these exotic, beautiful women that he lays with on all these random nights and at the end his beautiful strong, respectable looking sista comes to save him from all the foolishness and fills the void. Who should do it? Usher? Trey Songz? Tyrese? lol. I'm taking suggestions. lol

I had this song along with me when I was an exchange student in paris & london. i was so lonely & would listen to this song at nite before i went to bed, just to feel like i was home. brings back good memories. i am going back to europe this year to see some of the old places. i will bring this song again & listen to it just like i did before.

Funny you would say that; this song reminds me of my sister too. She was 28 years old when she left me in this world and that was in 1995. Thanks for sharing
