The fact that real singers get Down played for the Beyonce s and the auto tunes out here is embarrassing. Anita Baker is one of those singers when you see her live back in the day and even now she makes it look ridiculously easy
If this single got released for the first time tomorrow, 2012, by the artist herself, I believe it would still be a contender. A classic is a classic.

I was gonna comment on how she sings amazingly well,..and how the tune is so sweet,....but,why write so much when I can say it all in one word? PERFECT.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HER HAD THE PLEASURE TO SEE HER LIVE AT TRUMP IN NJ IT WAS AWESOME,,,SOUNDS JUST LIKE HER ALBUMS DIDNT DISAPPOINT MY GOSH,,,I LOVE THIS LADY,,,,FOREVER ANITA
yes, this takes me back to a moment in time.Somewhere around sept of 87 when we met and things were good . things are good again now,but damm it was a long road.
Estimated friend, if you want to listen again this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - looks for his direction URL in Google ( search Musica para Mimos in Google)-. best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is great, is very good ...!!!
This woman is pure class. She doesn't have to get half-naked and slutty to sell the music like so many others (who shall rename nameless). She's been one of my favorites for a long time.
everything about this absolutely kills! Her emotion and movements, her class and style, and of course her unparalelled voice. The band is bringin it (Gerald Albright on Bass!). An all time favorite. Love her.
Girl can sing!!!!!!!! This is pure erection section music man how I wish I was in my 20s in the 80s instead of being a kid. Man just imagine the end of the night in a club grooving to this. Love ya Anita

@fixitjamie: search amazon-com or Target-com for "Anita Baker Rapture Live". Be warned the quality is EXACTLY what you see here on YouTube. I actually love the sepia tone effect, don't know if this was done on purpose are not.
What an incredible talent Anita Baker is .I own all of her albums and her music never goes out of style.This is a great live video with the multi talented Gerald Albright on bass ,whom many may not know he plays just as great as well as his sax..
yah i've been loving this song since like i was 13 or 14 and im 35 now.. Me and my friends used to talk about her when we were young and we're guys. She sounds awesome
Its a damn shame that this beautiful woman is so underrated and under-appreciated. Anita's the only singer who reminds me of Sade; powerful voices, passionate to the bone, positive, uplifting, and classy. There were also live instruments used in all her songs. Anita's a legend!!!
She killed this song like her others I wonder who hates her for Michael Jackson. If you are a hater who hates her, you need to pay attention to the 1980s great singers!! Nobody needs to know about some dead man songs. Think about the person who is alive which is Anita Baker!!! And If you don't like it, you can join Michael Jackson you oversize A. Baker haters!!
THIS IS A REAL PERFORMER WHEN YOU CAN JUST SING WITH A BAND AND A MIKE..SHE DIDNT HAVE TO HAVE NO SPECIAL EFFECTS OR DANCERS HER ARTISTRY IS THE SPECIAL EFFECTS...YYYYYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS
