Oh, if only i could go right back in time, it would be this era, I loved every piece of music that came out around this time, and when I got older, I went out and got them all, so many great artist with great "individual" voices...ds
This song is just ooozing with greatness,the vocals,instruments,the arrangement,when i listen to stuff like this it makes me all the more upset with the music industry today,like I just wish there was such a thing as a time clock that whenever we want to turn back in time we can do so by the push of a button,well i guess thats what you tube is for,thanks youtube for just bringing us back in time man.In my personal opinion i think a singer like Marsha Ambrosis will definitly pull this song off.
Holly, sorry forgot to add this to complilation IV , this would of been directly after marvin gaye - aint that peculiar. Enjoy HK. HH lives on via youtube.
@Inkerman1980 try millie ripperton - inside my love then treat yourself and listen to terri wells and then really treat yourself and see if you can find a better tune than dexter wansel - the sweetest pain and if you really want a master cut to top the pile, secret garden live on soul train by quincy jones. now that is music
@WhereIsRealHipHop hello, i don't know if the device has an actual name or what the technique is called, but it sounds like when trumpet (and i think trombone players do it too) players take like a toilet plunger head and hold it in front of the opening of the horn. they cover and uncover it in varying amounts to change the tone. kind of like a wah pedal used with a guitar. if you look through some old big band videos you might see it done.
So she's the woman who sang this. I've always liked this song, but never had a name and face to the voice. I've always liked the melody. I immediately started nodding my head when it came on. definitely adding this to my favorites
I remember this song, OMG... I was in the 2nd grade (Mrs. Arthur's class)... and now im 39yrs old. GOOD MUSIC - NOT like this bullshyt they play on radio now adays.
What do Jean Carne,Phyllis Hyman and Phil Perry all have in Common?-THEY ARE ALL ARTIST WHO SET THE STANDARDS OF VOCAL EXCELLENCE SO HIGH, THAT THE MOGULS OF THE RECORDING INDUSTRY COULD NOT PROMOTE MUCH OF THE MEDIOCRE TRASH WE HEAR TODAY.
@zantakissi Thank u..I know this song since the 80s;it was a real succes in france at this time,but i would liked to know that fabulous singer in the 70s but i was too young.
The most under rated female sole singer in the WORLD! Just listen to everything, every word, every note this woman has ever sung. Please know she is what all female singes should aspire to be! It pains me that this woman is not world famous. Love, Tony from Phila
For those in London anyone who likes this music and much more from that era when music was music should come down to the Soul Shack in Liverpool Street to hear much more of this. On tomorrow but usually every 3rd Saturday of the month. Real quality music and a good crowd.
Always loved this track, I rate Jean in the Premier League of Soul singers, alomg with Teena Marie, Shirley Jones and others. This is a very smooth piece of music, good mesage in there too, never let the person that you love know just how much you love them!! Keep them guessing, it always keeps them interested.
To top my musical post I have to add someone that sang about the way I feel . The Angel of philadelphia Sound, Jean Carne. What a wonderful lady... New Artist, "Don't Let It Go To Your Head." Take it from me and Jean Carne. No matter what it applies to. "Humble is the way." Bruce Hawes of "The Sound Of Philadelphia Family."
I was 17 when I first heard this great woman. Blew me away. Her voice quality, tones, clarity, articulation and meaning this is singing. Soulful. I still love her. 30 yrs later.
If you have the time, please pull up "This is your life", "Invitation", "Handle me gently", and "I am your melody" all by super producer Norman Connors with some guest artists that can sang!
WOW..you remember Melvin Lindsey? I remember he used to always be at the old club The Buck stops here in DC...I miss him..Quiet Storm was never quite the same.
Melvin Lindsey - WHUR quiet storm...Crampton Auditorium concerts on Howard University's Campus... the Black Crystal...Ben's Chili Bowl...then on to the crib...with my honey...damn...haven't been back to DC since 1983 when I graduated. My God do I remember those days!
Somebody please send this song to my man cause I am about to kick his fucking ass. HE IS FUCKIN UP BIG TIME AND I AM ABOUT TO ANNIHILATE HIS ASS! Look that word up! Trust its a serious one. Use it in your vocabulary
@wininparis This is one yr later and i hope things are better..but they are known to mess up big time..and we love them nonetheless..I wonder what that says about us? hhhmmm...
I love this one and will always associate this as Jean Carn signature tune. Was Jean Carn in the Jones Girls or used to sing with them? I can kind of hear her sound on some of their tracks
Jean Carn is one of the all-time great vocalists. I've loved this song for a very long time. She is highly under-rated (I think) but is ,nevertheless, greatly appreciated. Thank you for the posting, secman37!!!
I just love it......now that i'm 53 1/2 I can relate back then....
