My Father, Best Friend and the only Man I ever looked up to died 16 years ago today (5/2/1996) And I still miss him so much everyday. value your Father if you still have him, because it is only when he is gone that you realize just what you have lost. Your Best Friend, the one you can talk to and cry with, the one that will be there for you when everyone else is gone. So Love your Dad and tell him so everyday. I dedicate this song to All Fathers Living and Passed With Love...Geraldine...xxxxx
I've never seen my real father but a man who stands as my father gives me the love and care i need and i thank god for giving such a person that would love me unconditionally I pray to god to give him enough life to see walking in the aisle marrying a man who's like him. I am now 14 years old.
this is a great fatherhood video Luther left us with a veery deep song didn't know my dad til late in his life still we had some quality time my mom passed when I was 4
I can't stop listening to this song I lost my dad 7 months ago very sudden this song reminds me of when i was little and also i wish i could dance with my father again x
im lucky to still have my dad around im 10 and luv him dearly hes been there ever since i was young we have our ups and downs but we will always love each other LUV YOU DAD!!xoxoxox
This song takes me back to a man that I love dearly...not my father (yes, I love him), but the man that I was close to...who I considered more of a father was my grandpa...He passed in 1999 and I would give anything to have my friend, father, confidant back....wow....miss him so much...rest in peace papa.
TIME IS PRECIOUS..LIVE EACH DAY LIKE IT WAS YOUR LAST..I lost my Father last March and I cant bear the pain..it hurts so much..I MISS HIM SO MUCH..I'VE BEEN LONGING TO DREAM OF HIM THAT WE'LL BE TALKING..LOVE YOUR FATHER SHOW HIM HOW HAPPY YOU ARE TO HAVE HIM..
Wish I knew what my dad was like or where he is...Happy Father's Day to all the caring dads out there, and sending healing to all of you who miss, or never knew yours the way you hoped to.
what idiot gave this amazing song and video a thumbs down? I didn't know the devil had a youtube account!!! Great work Richard Marx on writing!!! Thumbs UP!!!! God bless!
"R.I.P. Luther" us true fans still listen to your heavenly voice and we know that only you could sing to us through GOD's voice and we know that your spirit was a miracle itself here on earth, we know you are resting peacefully with our heavenly father and we will love you Always and Forever, your music speaks for itself and your vocals prove that you were not one in a billion or trillion, but one of all!!!!!
@polokidd13 So Sad,im soory for your loss, my Dad is 80 this year but i lost my mum back in 1982 when i was 16, the pain never goes,but i think this is one of the best songs ever written as we can all relate to it in our own way..

I love this song, as a matter of fact the very first time i heard it it brought tears to my eyes cuz it has a special meaning to me so i can't understand why ANYONE would dislike this song, so to this person whom ever they may be i only have 1 thing to say, KISS MY ASS YOU INSENSITIVE BASTARD.
i lost my father a few years ago, we didnt always see eye to eye, i miss him and i have never been allowed to clear the air with him. i know its to late know but ive learnt that life is to short for hate and bitterness. one thing you should always do is tell your parents you love them they will be gone sooner than you think. rip dad always thinking of you.
@uko987 OMG, sweety..I know what you mean. I am the 'black sheep' in my very well-behaved family. I am so glad I 'woke up' and got clean after a 11 week relapse. I am so glad I am in my right mind to tell him the things that need to be said to him. Even though he may not remember it, and it will be heartwrenching, I will play this song for him on my next visit to him in Hospice Care.
lost my step father brother and sister on september 12, 2010
most people dont care for people who r not biological family or blood related to them well i dd that day hit me in the heart. they died comin to pik me and my other sibling up the car fell off a bridge they said my sister waz crushed between the seat and my dad and brother flew out the window. at the funeral they had plastic things on them they were almost completely made of wax. i miss my dad bra and sis im cryin while im writin this
@luvdafamus I'm So VERY sorry for your loss. I can't imagine your pain. Hang in there, hon. My journey with terminal father and mother with Alzheimers is a long, scary road...,,Lisa
great video i lost my dad when i was 9 years old im 29 now and still think about him every day now i have my own daughter of 6 months i just hope im here to see her grow up
one person that disliked this video doesnt know the lovee ifelt for my grandfather,&&always will feel.;R.I.P.PawPaw.;missed,but never forgotten.;iloveeyouu<3
I encourage everyone whos father is still alive: Do not take his presence for granted. Yeah he may embarass you, you might hate him from time to time, but never go to bed angry with him. You never know if that's the last time you'll see him.
@MizzVP1987 i am only 13 but i agree with u. in january of 08 my father wouldnt let me go to my freinds becuase he wanted me to go eat with him and my brothers and sisters so i got mad but when we left the place we were eatin he died in the car, but we got him to the hospital fast enough that they brought him back alive. ever since then i have never gone to sleep mad at my father no matter what
@denny5545 my dad was 48 when he died. from some kind of hyper tension. i never got to say good-bye. i dont even remember the last time i talked to him. i regret that soooo much now. its been 7 years(August 22, 2003) and it doesn't get any easier.I feel you. may he rest in peace.
Lost my dad nearly 9 years ago...feel as if it was yesterday.....love this song but also makes me cry....feel so close to my dad when I listen to this.....beautiful song which touches my soul....miss you dad...love you x always x x
Dance with my Father is a powerful song by Luther Vandross. It means so many things to me, the father I had or the father I hope to be. I think of a man struggling for his life at this moment in an Indiana hospital. His familiy is near him in this difficult time. He's a wonderful man is all I can say. I pray for a miracle.
love this so much . make me upset and make me think of my dad so much.
i lost my dad when i was 11 and now i'm 24 , not a day has gone past where i dont think of him , not a morning or a night. Still over 13 years later and have lived more then half my life without him and not once has the pain ever eased or got any easier. i have always felt soo lost in my life as soon as i lost my father. to the greatest dad in the world . always in memory. love you . x
God I am so glad you blessed me with a great dad whos still with me....and that I may be half the man he is to my 2 own,very great kids...the best,best in the world.
I Miss being young & being with my Father. I would always ask him if he was home to stay when he would get home from work each night. I'm ashamed I haven't seen him in (4) months. I need to see him, he's in poor health right now! Lord, please take care of him for me I pray! I Love You Soooooooooooooooo Much DAD!
the first time i heard this song i cried. my daddy was shot and killed also. i never knew him and sometime i wished i could go back in time and change thing i was a baby. But god knows whats best he took by daddy away for a reason that i may never know
This is a one of the best songs ever sang...I cry everytime i hear it..I wish my Dad was here but unfortantly he was shot and killed in front of my mom.I was 2 months old when a selfish man deciced to take him away from my mom.It would be nice to have a Daddy growing-up.So to all all the women and liltte girls you are so lucky.Cherish every moment with him as you can.You never know what tomorrow my bring..I Love You Daddy.. oxoxoxoxoxox
@JerseyBabe401 dude best comment ever you need to copy and paste this comment to EVERY SINGLE VIDEO YOUTUBE thats sad sorry 4 ur loss my mom also died FEEL THE EXACT WAY
my dad hasnt died as yet but i keep crying for some reason when i listen to this song because i never want him to die..never!..i just love him sooo much...and for you guys that have lost dads...im soooo sooo sorry...i know how it would feel if im feeling this way and my dad hasnt died
i lost my father at the tender age of 3 and i cant help but think how this video would be perfect to remember him by. i really miss not being able to grow up with him in my life. my mother passed away 8 years later and she grieved for him till the day she died..i love you both and im doing ok
my grandmother die before i was born leaving 9 sibling. one of these sibling is my mother. i dont even know what she look like. love you grandma. people out there, appreciate yours.
My Father, Best Friend and the only Man I ever looked up to died 16 years ago today (5/2/1996) And I still miss him so much everyday. value your Father if you still have him, because it is only when he is gone that you realize just what you have lost.
