@twiztidlestat that sure was amazing. i think that the best songs are songs that are sung from personal experience and personal struggles.that song fits him in so many ways, and the emotions that he brings to that song singing it, its amazing.
i am glad to see an old school artist being appreciated,,,now i jus want ma man to come back,,,nothing more,,,thumbs up El,,,you guys of that golden era are just the TRUTH!
@christiandebonair Not absurd...I am a big fan of both. Have all of Jill's albums and her last one was her worst. She had maybe 2-3 songs that sounded good. The rest was disjointed and directionless at best. El's Second Chance ALBUM is the best COMPLETE album I've heard in years with virtually no need to skip over any song. It's that good and he deserved to be nominated in this category.
@500205 , I'll go outside if YOU GO TO HELL!! If you WERE outside, then you WOULDN'T have notice my comments!!! YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE, SO YOU WON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT MINE or my comments!!!
@500205 , By the way, you need to stop STALKING me because HOW ELSE would you have known that my most of my comments were top comments???? Touch your BIG ASS NOSE and stop being so nosey, LOL, LOL
I'm so happy that El got another Grammy nod for Second Chance!!! This time it's for Best R&B album. I hope he wins because he is a true talent and it's been long overdue. I love this man and listen to his music just about everyday. You go boy, with your bad self!
I am so damn proud of you El You are an amazing person with so much still ahead. Keep going we love you and the memories that you have given us. And you look good doing it !!!!!
I have this entire song downloaded onto my phone and I just love it! The whole Second Chance album should be recognized as Best Album of the year. El has been in the game too long, to not be able to get any recognition. This man is a pure, talented, God-given, gifted genius!! He's still sexy too :) GO EL!! We love you!!
@XxBabyGurlLovexX Thanks , you have a beautiful heart of love for El with saying he should be recognized for his musical genius and he was and your series and books on El - I enjoy reading them and listening to the songs. Many blessings and peace. 12-01-11.
@rivotte1822 No problem and thank you dear :) El is so wonderful and I do have a lot of love for him. The rest of my stories on my page and you can read them all if you like and have the time. Glad you enjoy them. Many blessings an d peace to you too. :) 12-01-11
i love this song hes kinda old but hes still looking good lol
i think he means it when he askes for a second chance he mad alot of mistakes and he regrets them. thats more than enough for me to give him a secind chance. he knows what he did is wrong and wont do it again. and i love his voice.
I'll be so glad when there's an awards show where they would GIVE A SPECIAL AWARD AND A TRIBUTE to El DeBarge!! He's been in the game for so long and it is time that he is RECOGNIZE for his talents!!
This is so beautiful.. God is good.. people can come out of the darkness.. El is living proof... love love love love it.... you deserve another chance.. no one is perfect....keep it coming El.. I have been a fan forever..
It is a true shame that he's recently suffered a relapse, if Wiki is to be believed. I think that the man needs to bow out gracefully after this, get the rest and help that he needs, and not think that he must fully depend on any higher powers to fix him. He must want to fully get well, with his own inner strength.
That said, his singles for this album sounded unbelievably sweet to my ears. His voice is timeless.
omg,Thank you so much for correcting/healing my heart and soul! I sorta thought that that was a dramatic/drastic change. What pain when I saw them. They have completely locked themselves out of this world, shut themselves down like they have done something bad to society. On the contrary they havent! They dont realize that they have all just really turned on each other. Cant they see how many of us truly CARE! God Bless!
MY DAUGHTER GABRIELLE AND I SAW THIS VIDEO BEING FILMED HERE ON SKID ROW WHERE I LIVE AND YES!! IT IS A HARD PLACE TO LIVE BEING HOMELESS,HUNGRY,UNHAPPY,SUFFERING FROM MENTAL ILLNESS,AND ON DRUGS BUT SOME HERE HAVE NEVER HAD THOSE PROBLEMS,SOME JUST WANTED TO GET AWAY FROM THE PACE OFM LIFE,IV BEEN CLEAN AND SOBER,LIVING IN MY OWN LOFT,AND HELPING THOSE ON SKID ROW.I DO STILL HAVE MOMENTS OF DEPRESSION,HOWEVER THE PLACE HERE ON SKID ROW CALLED"LAMP" HELPS ME WHEN IM IN NEED! NICE SONG,THANKS!
After seeing Dr. Drew show my heart was broken. I have been searching all websites for some sort of answer, but when it comes down its all up to you.You said that you are "not living"!Then we must be all wrong.We all have our faults and El you are no exception!El if you read this you are a God given talent for all to see and hear.Your voice is "angelic"! Please dont burn it away.God blessed you with an "angelic" voice and the devil/demons are trying to "burn" it away from you.Pls dont go down!

@Pnkantique I agree with you! They are truly a music treasure to this world. I was heartbroken when I saw the family on there. They looked like they were doing better when they did the show "UNSUNG" a few years back now they did a rapid decline of themselves. I wish there was something I could do but all we can do is pray for them and hope they see the beauty in themselves that we see and they turn it around for the best!
@memdiva When people get as far as they did its because they believed in themselves. When you have a treasure chest you keep opening it up to look at everything you have, everything you did and saved and maybe even trying things on again! Just like you said "a music Treasure"! I wish they didnt look at themselves as a failure because that is way out of line. THEY'RE MUSIC ICONS AND WHEN THEY ALL GET TOGETHER AGAIN THEIR SONG IS GONNA BE NAMED "THE RHYTHM OF OUR LIVES! HOPE & PEACE!!!!!!

Someone out there please help him...Please dont let him become another statistic. We've had enough talent wasted by situations like this. I believe that El thought that all his good looks that women were obsessed with were gone. He is a better person today than ever. Even getting out of jail he was such a debonair. Answering questions with a smile, never with a puss or saying "get out of my way". What a gentleman! I know he has to do his part but, PLEASE SOMEONE OUT THERE HELP HIM, PLEASE!
I wish El Debarge and his family would see the beauty in themselves that I see in them, not just outer beauty but also from the inside. God has blessed them with beautiful voices as well. They have to let go of the past all the shame they feel in order to move on.
I will keep the DeBarge family in my prayers through their struggles with drug addiction, I saw the on Dr. Drew yesterday and I stillsee their beauty, gifts and all that God so richly blessed them with beneath their current conditions. Everyone continue to pray for them because Satan is a liar and he will flee from the DeBarge family. 09-21-11.
My heart goes out to the DeBarge family! As long as you have breath in your body there is a good chance God will hear the sinners prayer. Through prayer & fasting take authority & tell Satan You can do all things thru Christ Jesus who strengthens you. Those Drug demons will leave only by fasting & prayer.
When you get a minute check out my Video channel called
"Kato's Music Room" @
vodpod dot com/katosmusicroom
There are a LOT of inspirational messages from Bishop T.D Jakes, Bishop Noel Jones, Dr. Jamal Bryant, as well as complete episodes of my favorite TV shows like "TV One's Unsung", "I hate Chris" etc....You'll also find videos of my favorite music artist's like Marvin Gaye, Enchantment, Al Green & Gospel Music !
Extremely suprise to discover that el debarge is of a black and white decendant... always thought he looked more latino, puetorican to be precise.... he look fine as hell either way!
@XxBabyGurlLovexX Are you commenting on another vid? I'm hearing a man with the voice of a child; high-pitched, shallow, no volume, no resonance, no timbre. How is this good?
@FVB4R You must have been born in the 90's or after to not be able to appreciate good music. This song is beautiful and the type of music that comes from real singers. Not that autotuned stuff that is so famous on the radio today, which is not music but animation.
@TrueGospelMusicLover Indeed the latest fab in music, the autotuned rubbish, is a testament to the sliding scale music has been on since the 80s. LaBarge creates his vocals in/near his nose, which to me makes it contrived. I think many people sing like that (e.g. JoJo of Jodeci, Keith Sweat, etc.) because they are unable to create an interesting resonance with their chest voice. Of course someone can still like that way of singing, that's taste. My preference goes out to "OC Smith - Together" :)
Those high notes...you still have it, El! I am glad that you faced your demons and realized what's better in life. El, you are one of my favorite singers and I'm glad that that you've made your way back into the spotlight.
HeLLo EvEryONE I don’t try to be a spammer; I’m just a person who is fighting for her dream I’m going to introduce myself. My name is Angie Medina and I’m 17 years old I’m in a small town, but I have big dreams I play guitar, flute and I would like to learn play piano and violin My dream is to be a singer And I would like that my dream can come true with the help of you guys. So please stop by my channel and check out my cover. Please help me get my dream. Thank you so much.
In that song I felt his pain and it made me want to cry. The DeBarge family are really in to GOD more than R&B and that is really good it show where their heart is. I wish El and his family will have all the success that life can offer in the name of GOD.

My heart goes out to the DeBarge family! As long as you have breath in your body there is a good chance God will hear the sinners prayer. Through prayer & fasting take authority & tell Satan You can do all things thru Christ Jesus who strengthens you. Those Drug demons will leave only by fasting & prayer.

@XxBabyGurlLovexX Are you commenting on another vid? I'm hearing a man with the voice of a child; high-pitched, shallow, no volume, no resonance, no timbre. How is this good?
FVB4R 3 months ago
@FVB4R You must have been born in the 90's or after to not be able to appreciate good music. This song is beautiful and the type of music that comes from real singers. Not that autotuned stuff that is so famous on the radio today, which is not music but animation.
TrueGospelMusicLover 3 months ago
@TrueGospelMusicLover Indeed the latest fab in music, the autotuned rubbish, is a testament to the sliding scale music has been on since the 80s. LaBarge creates his vocals in/near his nose, which to me makes it contrived. I think many people sing like that (e.g. JoJo of Jodeci, Keith Sweat, etc.) because they are unable to create an interesting resonance with their chest voice. Of course someone can still like that way of singing, that's taste. My preference goes out to "OC Smith - Together" :)

@FVB4R Stop hating please. If that's what you hear, then I suggest you try another video with another artist Thank you.

Those high notes...you still have it, El! I am glad that you faced your demons and realized what's better in life. El, you are one of my favorite singers and I'm glad that that you've made your way back into the spotlight.
God Bless You! :)

In that song I felt his pain and it made me want to cry. The DeBarge family are really in to GOD more than R&B and that is really good it show where their heart is. I wish El and his family will have all the success that life can offer in the name of GOD.
