[cedzworld]

I miss this song! I'm honored to say Roger Troutman would put on an incredible show. He's the only legend I've seen in concert who is no longer with us. (Summer Jam '96, Dallas TX) RIP

[92bravo]

@cedzworld Roger Troutman is the only celebrity that I have ever met in person. He was so down to earth. (Fall homecoming concert '84) Been to many of his concerts. The helium took its toll over time. RIP. Love this song.

[swizzlestick90]

@92bravo what do you mean the helium took its toll over time?

BIENAVENTURADOS LOS POBRES EN ESPIRITU, PUES DE ELLOS ES EL REINO DE LOS CIELOS

[253KINGS]

How can yu smile when yur worlds Tumbling down??

[GodsMusic4ALL]

@253KINGS VERY HARD

[RecordStr8]

The guy in the suit, is where T-Pain got his style from. R.I.P. Roger Troutman.

[invisistar123]

@RecordStr8 True. I was just thinking about that, idk how many people know that T- Pain gets his style from Roger Troutman.

[southnyourmind]

@RecordStr8 Actually, what t pain does, its COMPLETELY different from what roger does. Roger use's talk box, while tpain use's autotune. Huge difference.

[RecordStr8]

@southnyourmind Note that I said he got his style from Roger Troutman, I never said they were the same instruments. It's no secret, he readily admits it. He knows Roger Troutman made the digitally processed sound well known in the 1980s, but he also realizes that no one would be synthesizing their vocals and speech as often if it wasn’t for him reviving the electronic device. All unfair to Stevie Wonder who is on record as the first musician who performed the talkbox on the synthesizer.

[southnyourmind]

@RecordStr8 I know all about Stevie Wonder, but its more because Mr. wonder didnt stick with it, being that he didnt really need it, thats why i dont think he gets credit for talk box. Either way, its a great song.

[missmonae3000]

Wow this brings back good memories. Can't nobody dislike this song!!!

[darronj517]

beautiful song

[darronj517]

This song will bring you thru.

[bigroy145]

(change is hard as hell) positive outlook is even harder hard to find in such a dim lit world. but this song kinda helps

[osap2010]

change has come can't you feel it in the air

[aldoniastar]

i love sounds of blackness even though im just a teeneager i can really relateto this song. my mom sings this to me whenever im going through. so im really grateful for sounds of blackness because they really helped me through alot of stuff

[MyOwnWoman]

I used to jam to this album with my mom as a kid. Love Sounds of Blackness! Real music.

[Midgette100]

roger got killed by his brother who turned around and then killed hisself

[skindy1]

who was the orginal artists who made this song? does anybody know?

[osap2010]

@skindy1 al green but they changed it up a little

[seafoamwinter]

Oh snap that voice box go hard

[catolog96]

Rest in Peace Roger. When they said change is coming, that is not what I had in mind. ;_(

[booker25252525]

THIS SONG BLESSES ME



[bobmoore20]

losing my headphones im jammin so hard. i love this song

[buddy19502]

but is this the original version? it sounds like thed right one im looking for but with more bounce it seem like that was roger in fact i know it was the original is not with him?? is it??

[delahmusik8]

wow i want to be in that video looks fun lol love this song

[MegaCookiesrock]

is that shaggy?

[Jhaxias]

@MegaCookiesrock ; it's roger troutman from the old school band, Zapp, the group that did doo wah ditty. this has the same bass line a chord progression as that song. Roger died in a hit and run (I think) not long after this song was made.

[TrinaNasty]

My Future Graduation Song 2012-2013

[SexxyChynaD]

man i love the part when the choir sings lala! my grandma used to do that when ever she felt something was going to happen she said that was the way of letting the devil know he couldnt invade or interupt our happiness

[Mrsladyred2010]

this song may be old but its still my JAM!!!!!

[blesses012]

This is my song. I was listening to it on Pandora and at first I didn't even reconize it but this is my jam. They can sing and they are giving praise to God. I just want to cry everytime I hear it but I have to be strong and keep holding on.

[RayPartridge]

Let's be clear - Hold on to the unchanging hand of Jesus Christ, the Living Word, God Himself. Believe and act on His Word, and everything will be alright!!

[delicious123ize]

This song is a great song for when I am in a bad place.

[1asiarenee]

love this

[JGHUHVKLTJHGKLRFJV]

Wow . This song has been out for so long and this is my first time hearing it. Today I woke up thinking about music. So I haven't been to church in awhile so I just decided since today is Sunday, so a little gospel won't hurt. So I'm listening to all these gospel songs. And Then I heard this one; and I loved it and i started singing the chorus and the next thing I knew I'm sitting here on you tube listening to this song over and over again. This Song truly put me in the spirit. Thanks You! ;)

[allsuzen]

my all time favorite.. sing it when you're down.. sing it when you're up... just HOLD ON
