Now that Whitney has passed we need to get our real musicians and singers back to us...the money hungry mongrels taking over in the industry has totally dumbed down our music it's pathetic. Can you imagine how this song would sound on an actual album or cassette tape (of which I've worn out playing over and over again. Cd's don't give you that extra sound in music which makes it terrible to the ears. The inner ear is where you get the feeling of the music.
@sguccibags yes your right And once we realize we have brought more gifts to this planet beyond music only then can we realize our potential as a race. One can only imagine!!
This song is so beautiful. It brings tears to my eyes when I hear it. THIS SONG IS ABOUT THE LIFE OF THE TRUE CHOOSEN AND REMNANT OF THE SONS OF JACOB LIVING IN AND STRUGGLING IN CAPTIVITY. BY THE WAY, HER NAME IS CORAN AS IN ( THE HOLY KORAN ) WHEELER.
This Girl can sing, her groove is sooothing, I have always LOVED this song until I wore out the CD. She's amazing....I just love the memoriess this song brings to me
Thank~GOD For U-Tube so we can find our favorite artist' again
I had issues with this bey-ouch, I remember in 1992 in a Video Soul interview with Donnie Simpson how she was talking some non-sense and had a STANK attitude. What-eva! She thought she was all that after Soul II Soul and went solo and it flopped! Too bad because she was talented....

get out of here!!! I ALWAYS thought your uncle was so gorgeous!!! i used to have this video on vhs and I still love love love the video and song!!! tell your uncle hello- what his name may be. I am sure your whole family must be BEAUTIFUL!!!
Living in the Light is a real winner for Caron. If she doesn't make another song that speaks volumes about us as a people, she has done well. Your Go, Caron!
@antiann52 Your right!! Beyond the hot beat and her off the chain voice are some powerful lyrics. It's too bad that a majority us (from the center of the world) don't live up the lyrics she's kicking. We are some awesome people I just wish we'd realize it.
I have been looking for this song for years! I used to blast this in my Sony tape player in the late 80's early 90's. I never knew who song it. this is so me at 16 in New York going to School of American Ballet in New York City!
picked up a promo copy of this cut from wedr in miami(they had 3, hope they don't miss it), had like 8 or 9 mixes on it, this one was number 3,also had 3 real tight mixes of "i adore you"..extra tight work...
If rap wouldn't have happened the world would have appreciated Caron Wheeler's artistry so much more.. Caron Wheeler is the most under-rated artist of the past few generations... It's 'Black Power Music' and it's oh-so beautiful!!!... Thank you Caron Wheeler!!!...
what does rap have to do with how successful her career was/is? I cant stand when people hate on rap like its the cause of people/the worlds problems!!! Rap has good parts and bad parts just like R&B!!!
What is soul? I think it's a combination of insight, passion, inquisitiveness and empathy. So many people in life get by through numbing their hearts and shutting down their brains. The times when I feel the most alive are when i am engaged with the worlsdand not functioning on autopilot.
Music like this IS still being made...with no major label (joke), & radio (bigger joke) support. Please seek it out and support it. Lots of soulful house grooves are out there.
The problem, as I see it, is not so much seeking it out. Besides Soul Sessions on BET Jazz, where else can u find it? I am SO starved for this kind of music.
You can find it right here! I love the fact that you can find so much great music on You Tube! You like this? Check out soulfull sistas like Amil Larrieux, Monique Bingham, Sandra St. Victor and on and on! Peace Diva!
I've found out that you can find it here;but what I truly meant 2 say is that what other venues give an outlet to "underground artists"? But it's all good, you get it one way r another and that's wonderful
I've already beat you to the punch on the soulful sistas except Monique Bingham(smile). Thanks for the insight and info, though!
I love this song thank u for post it. caron is the original singer for soul to soul back in the day for those who didnt know look at back to life video.
YouTubers you will not believe how long I have been looking for this video. I saw it originally on BET. I fell in love with Caron's voice and this particular song. It speaks to my soul. Thank you You Tube.
I love this song..the whole album was amazingly socially conscious, her vocals are off the chain too. This song brings back memories, when soul/r&b was so much more than bling, money, b*tches, etc... Where's Caron these days??
One of the best vocals/voices in popular music ever!! I wish musicians of today would be at least half inspired as the likes of Caron where back then...
Caron Wheeler is one of my favorite singers. I bought two of her solo albums, and both were outstanding! I loved this song and "BLUE IS THE COLOR OF PAIN" from her 1990 released album, and "IN OUR LOVE" and "NEED A MAN" from her next album in 1993,(BEACH OF THE WAR GODDESS). Her music combines great music with very deep messages. I hope she releases another album/CD soon!
