  • I love his voice so much. He has the best part.

  • Exxelent!

  • I had no idea that avant did the remake to this song.... that version was for my first love, But this version stills takes me back to everything I felt for my first love :) this song is soooo great!

  • You are my first love Nicolette................

  • that fro looks so clean

  • To WF..you will always be my first love...

  • My..GOD!!! I CANNOT ever get tired of hearing this song!!! CLASSIC Black R & B!!!

  • DIBIA$E

  • End of A Year sent me here.

  • I heard this song about SIX years ago in my car and i went in2 a frenzy. I knew off the bat this had 2 be the ORIGINAL. There's nothing like the real thing!! These young artists cant touch these OLDTIMERS that's what they do not just for a living.

  • Fucking Classic... about to sample it and bring it back to life.... Word! Emcee Suspense...

  • he liked crack better...

  • @Super11251 Renee started smoking Crack started fighting her @Ronald (Mr.Big) Isley beat his ASS back stage for fighting her Ron then married her and had a kid,cheated on her she moved back 2 STL. and now write songs now.

  • Damn , Both Them and Keke Wyatt & Avant, KILLED This Song ! I Mean I Had My Little One Of Off The Most Recent One , But Hell , I Love This One !

  • Comment removed

  • I agree she was under rated love her voice

  • I conceived off this song...lol..

  • nice album cover. i have to admit i hate this song, the only part i like is the music at the beginning but angela by herself that's another story. i'm glad she left rene she only got better!

  • Does anyone have the clip from BET when Avant was singing his version alone and Angela Winbush walked out and they performed impromptu? This was early 2000s.

  • @neepl8

    When did that happen??? I don't remember that! Yeah someone needs to post that ASAP!

  • Yep. He'll always be my first love. I deeply love this song from the lovely intro to the very end. Thank you so much for posting. Fantastic memories floating through my mind.

  • I liked avant better than renee sarry

  • I remember on Angela Winbush's Unsung episode she actually wrote this song for Janet Jackson's first album. But Janet turned it down. I'm a huge Janet fan and thank God she did turn it down. She wouldn't have been able to sing it the way Rene and Angela did.

  • @JadenJewel18 iknow what you saying

  • @JadenJewel18

    FUNNY POST, but you're right!

  • tamia & avant not angela

  • @chonychuckbass It Was Keke Wyatt Who Sung With Avant Not Tamia

  • Angela and Avant need to remake this.....their duet would sound much better. I still love both verisons.

  • Now this is music!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • wow just imagine two people who hated each other could make beautiful music like this and today lovers give us crap in a duet

  • When music was music..nuff said

  • This may have come out in 1983 however I remember this so clearly from my childhood. My mother would play this song all the time as I was young and so would Mr. Tony Brown on WDAS-FM... I just LOVE this song! Gives me chills all the time! Music is SO gone today I don't care what you say... no one can compare to the old school!

  • @MannarinoJoey I was in Philly at the time WDAS was the best radio station!!

  • @Nanadsyl

    I love that station, now there is a 107.9 WRNB which is okay too, but surely not GREAT like the WRNB with Miss Patty Jackson, the greatest in the land... KISS FM in NY is also great... but WRNB just has that "thing"

  • Beautiful people, beautiful music

  • Ms. Winbush really was one of the most underrated female singers from her generation. wow. In many ways her voice was stronger than Ms. Houstons'. Her voice is on the same level of Toni Braxton's. Maybe she was ahead of her time. Just amazing!

  • Avant sounds just like him, no wonder he covered the song

  • This is my jam

  • Angela is great! But we can't ignore Rene's excellent vocal performance on this song either. So give him some props YALL! You know he's good too. And it's OK to say it!

  • This brought tears to my eyes and I aint even have a drink lol . I remember when my moms use to say to me. Yall young people dont no nothing about this . Now I say the same thing to my kids . The sad part about it is there going to say the same thing to there kids . i wonder if that means the music is in a decline ?

  • This song makes me want to slow dance with my first love.Took us 30 years to admit it but now we've got one another. I love the opening of this song, could be in a scene from a movie.

  • Angela has a voice that was SOOOOOOO not respected. Her voice is up there with the rest of them and her music was soulful and memorable! Will last forever! This cut here is WOW! A lot of people don/t know but she wrote I've Learned to Respect the Power of Love that Stephanie performed then she came back and re-did and NAILED IT!

  • love making music

  • Beanie Sigel....classic

  • this is the original, can't be touched

    

  • avant and angela should of did a remake to this song

  • LORD ...THIS WOMAN CAN SING!!!!

  • THIS IS THE CUUUUT!!!!

  • One fool just had to dislike to be different. What is not to like?

  • @VIGirlfromVA - just pure bad mind, don't watch that!

  • @Iliketosee08 true...true.... i havent heard the avant one...dont think i want to ....can't beat this original

  • @vwgtiman1 The Avant one is pretty nice but dont hold a candle to this one.

  • its amazing how it all flows together

  • @Iliketosee08 im to young to remeber that one

  • What a beautiful relaxing love song. Thanks nyseamex! this is just what the doctor ordered.

  • @kennyedwards69 you are very welcome...happy holidays :)

  • SHOW ME

    

  • Soft and Warm the Majic 108 Quiet Storm, oh my bad, I was just thinking back to being on the phone and trying to sang this to a girl or, just having the real Quiet Storm as my soundtrack in the background to romance her on the phone! Miss the days of real music, real romance music and everythang that came along with it! Peace to all those that know and all those just finding out, come on, everyone who's ever thought back, knows this jam!

  • @LGKids you're right!

  • I think thee right one's remade this song

  • FUCKIN AMAZING MUSIC!!!!!!!

  • all time classic...whoever said thumbs down to this song need to check in their oldies but goodies card...

  • Avant and KeKe remixed this song....and I'm quite sure the youngens thought it was original.....Mostly all the new artist from the early 90's remix all the originals...If music fans all across the world research music from the 70's they will see..artist like Biggie...rest his soul.... remixed... ELDebarge's song....especially Mary J she is the remix queen...I hope the oringals get paid!!

  • This sister is soooo bad................she massages you with her voice. I miss this kind of music!

  • Angela is one of the greatest female singers of our time that many people do not even know about. She is and always will be my favorite.

  • goose bubs...even now, after all these years...

  • It's a crying shame these two broke up. The ones who really suffer are the fans...

  • @FireitupBedford He was beating her up onstage from what I heard. Last I heard she was married to ron Isley.

  • @khmg123 I think the marriage to Ron Isley has dissolved as well.

  • Angela Winbush is the most underrated female singer of her generation. Similar to Glenn Jones amongst men.Todays most underrated singer is Joe and Faith Evans.

  • @MrElMatic1 yes......THANK You!!!!!

  • @MrElMatic1 Very good comment. I cannot argue with you.

  • @MrElMatic1 I don't think Joe and Faith are underrated at all. Both have had their share of hits, maybe not #1s, but they have charted very well.

  • @MrElMatic1 I totally agree with you-- both Angela and Glenn are superstars!

  • They da bomb .

  • This is simply wonderul, thank you for posting it :)))

  • great song! I watched her unsung special and I am glad that she pulled through all of those obstacles that life handed to her wow!

  • OHHHHHH MY GOSH. I always thought Avant and KeKe song was original. Lol well I was only 11 years old when it came out around 2000 so I wouldn't have known. I just knew that I LOVED Avant's song.

  • this is beautifully composed. the strings, the vocals, the lyrics. everything.

  • I will never forget this

  • Rene adds absolutely nothing to thus song or their music. People remember Angela, not because she's beautiful, but because she can SING, WRITE AND PRODUCE.

  • Don't know why Angela Winbush was not up there with Whitney, Diana, Patti, Aretha. This beautiful woman's voice sends chills up and down my spine. Love that UNSUNG special about her..glad she is doing fine.

  • It's very hard for someone to remake a classic but avant and keykey pulled it off, I believe the music stayed exactly the same, do you know if that's true?

  • @stevieplez2

    No they didn't.

  • @chakafan2 yes they did.

  • @chakafan2 @stevieplez2- yeah, theirs was "alright". It only made me want to hear the original all the time.

  • @stevieplez2 Avant and KeKe did a great job paying homage to this beautiful song!

  • @stevieplez2 you spelled my girl name wrong but I under dig

  • i just love this song..this will be my wedding song

  • Last night on Angela's Unsung special was my first time hearing the original. I love the remake but that this lady had so much swagger back then to create this song really impresses me. The remake's music stands out more. It has more base in it and Avant has a better voice than Rene but both ladies are great. Angela has a beautiful voice and is uber talented.

  • I can't believe that when Angela was producing Janet Jackson's first album Anglea gave this song to Janet and she turned My First Love down. I'm actually glad that Janet didn't sing this song because Janet being 16 years old at the time didn't have the soul to sing this song like Angela does and still has.

  • @JadenJewel1 I totally agree.I 'am soooo happy Janet didn't do this song!!!!

  • @ginakay79 I swear it wouldnt sound right and it probably wouldnt be as famous

  • Damn Rene can sing!!!

  • The string arrangement at the top of this song is off the chain.

    @NJNupe1911 I couldn't agree with you more, but I would put the late great Charles Stepney up there as well.

  • They sang about real love back in the day. Night these booty call mess their putting out.

  • Honestly, I think both versions are great to listen to. However the original is ALWAYS better when it comes to music. I still give Avant's version credit because it was actually a great remake of this song.

  • I swear they do not make music like this anymore. This is real singing. Awesome song!

  • Dedicated to my wife!2010

  • omg!!!!! "LONG AS I LIVE". CLASSIC

  • I HAVE RESPECT FOR CLASSICS. THIS IS GOOD BUT THE REMAKE IS BETTER TO ME. (AVANT AND KEKE WYATT)

  • Avant and Keke Wyatt version is good, but there is nothing like this original version. The young lady that claims they blew this out of the water knows nothing about good old original old school! Wake up girl! Rene and Angela were a timeless very talented duo, no one else like them anywhere, in a class of their own!

  • avant and keke wyatt version blew this out of the water im sorry

  • @brooklyngurl09 Yes they did do an incredible job. I still favor the original as the soul sound of that era cannot be remade.

  • @brooklyngurl09 omg....r u serious..lol..dont get me wrong...that version is fantastic but nothin is better than the original...but i do respect ya opinion..just wanted to make sure u were listenin to angela's voice verses ke ke's..lol

  • One of the greatest female vocalists, musicians and producers who has not gotten her due. Started out as a background vocalist for Stevie Wonder who discovered her on the campus of Howard U.

  • Talk about rediscovering. Wow I'm really rediscovering Rene' actually. Angela Winbush was not really mentioned when we talked about great singers from back in the day, but she was really amazing. But I really enjoy the character of Rene's voice too. Especially on Come my way. I just did a marathon session on that song. lol.

  • another cut that makes today's music sound like SH*^!!!

  • so much good music i cant it no more!

  • man this song is so soothing it has a great groove and puts you in the mood for the brothers need to listen to this song and the sistas need to retrack demand respect from the brothas whaen songs like this were out you do not here the word bitch in this at all sing that song

  • Love Love Love this song!

  • This my ish, I hate Avant f*cked it up

  • MUSIC AT ITS BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • OHHH!! THE MEMORIES...GOOSE BUMPS!! lOVE RENE AND ANGELA

  • My First Love... WOW!!!

    "Long As I Live... You will BE My first Love"

    I was fortunate enough to marry My First Love. Even though we have been divorced for many years, that is an experience that I can say that I am glad to say that I had... to marry My First Love...

  • @MsNJLove people change but you can not forget the memories when you feel like this you feel like you on top of the world.  this song proves that

  • he looks sexy

  • Hurt You So Good--- rick ross

  • This used in rap song

    Hurt You So Good - Masspike Miles feat. Rick Ross

  • From a time when it took TALENT to make it........wow.

  • @terpsfan1982 Yeah it's hard to remember, but there really was a time when people had to actually be able to sing to be considered entertainers.

  • Angela. Baaaaddddddd. In many ways. Quadruple threat.

  • Thats when music  was real down to your soul.

  • Song makes u want to fall in love all over again.

  • long as i live will always be dedicated to a very special person in my life

  • As long as I live ,that will be one of my favorite songs!

  • everyone remembers there first love. mine was labree she is pregnant by another man now but i still think of her

  • I got with my sons mama with this song.

  • Yet another soul classic

  • OMG.........THOSE STRINGS!!!!!

  • @palmares77 i fully agree. the strings in the intro just do it for me

  • @capoeirapuma

    YES! THE STRINGS ARE JUST OUT OF THIS WORLD....!

  • @NJNupe1911 That's Paul Riser of motown fame doing the string arrangements. He also has done string arrangements for Stevie Wonder on "Rocket Love" and many other songs. He is one of the unsung geniuses of modern R&B music.

  • Its sad that Angela is overlooked when people think back but Rene's not too bad himself.

  • @freelancepimp I GOT ANGELA THRU OUT MY PLAYLIST FOR OLE SKOOL SLOW JAMZ....POWEFUL VOICE..YET SMOOTH

  • @benutiger Yes her voice is beautiful and crystal clear. I love the must they made together and when she stepped out on her own.

  • @freelancepimp FYI... ANGELA WROTE THIS FOR JANET JACKSON BUT SHE TURNED IT DOWNED......

  • im a bit partial to angela cause she's from Missouri

  • @awsullyful ummm i dont know what song made my spine tingle more? girl beat it

  • original is better simply because angela is the coldest.....

  • Awesome; I hope this one doesn't get deleted!

  • The original is the best...but i love the avant and kiki remix...Damn!!!

  • I like the Avant & Keke Wyatt remake a bit more but still this is a great song.

  • @SykSkillz25 You must a teenage girl that like Avant version better. Let me guess Avant so cute LOL. They can never touch this song never never. Get a life.

  • @DaCoolBro

    I have to agree with you Bro...nowadays young kids base how much they like a song based on how the artist looks...
