Paul Davis - Do Right

[DaveWollenberg]

3 folks aren't right with God.

[AquaCarb]

@DaveWollenberg Could you explain?

[DaveWollenberg]

@AquaCarb Well, if they dislike the song, they must have somethin' against God.

[DaveWollenberg]

AquaCarb, Do ya know if Paul ever got to see this, 'fore he died. He DEFINITELY would've been impressed with it!

[DaveWollenberg]

Paul hit #23 in Billboard, 5-17-80. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! Have a blessed week!

[simmycon1]

Great slide show and tribute to the man!!

[jimblackmon]

praise god

[DaveWollenberg]

@jimblackmon Amen, brother Jim! God bless ya, and have a blessed week!

[DaveWollenberg]

Do right, and, He'll be your guidin' light! RIP, brother Paul! See you in Heaven!

[ciarapaugh7478]

im 11 and i fell in love with this sing so that shows how great it is

[krimpee06]

Imagine what the world would be like if everyone lived by the words of this song...

[collinsjamesl]

Great video montage...and song! Thanks so much for posting! Did you find this song on CD? I'm not having any luck in purchasing it anwyhere. I wanted to add it to my music library.

[AquaCarb]

@collinsjamesl You can find it at grooveshark dot come

[sunnyalways68]

She died in 1981.:(

[sunnyalways68]

I want to Thank Paul Davis's family for getting his music on here the way it is now. I'VE TRIED FOR MONTHS TO WATCH SOME OF HIS STUFF AND COULDN'T. I LOVE HIM TOO YALL KNOW.THANK Y'ALL. I HOPE TO MEET HIM UN HEAVEN SOME DAY. HIS SONG COOL NIGHT WAS PLAYING ON THE RADIO NOVEMBER 29TH WHEN I WOKE UP AND FOUND MY 36 YR. OLD MOM DEAD FROM SUICIDE. AT 5:47 AM.:(

[collinsjamesl]

@sunnyalways68 So sorry to hear about your mother. I'm thrilled Paul's music is on youtube too. Unfortunately, "Do Right" isn't on iTunes though. I went searching for the song after hearing it on Jango internet radio. I actually completely forgot about "Do Right", so when it popped up out of the blue, on Jango, all these memories came flooding back. Does anybody where I can find this song. I'm a songwriter myself, so I wanted to support the song. Oddly, I can't find it anywhere

[Doobie1975]

@collinsjamesl Actually "Do Right" is on iTunes and it's available on the Paul Davis's "Greatest Hits" album, it is a great song that needs to be heard on the radio more often.

[collinsjamesl]

@Doobie1975 You're in the USA though. For whatever reason, Paul Davis' Greatest Hits album is not listed in iTunes Canadian store. It's a bit of a pisser, actually. Many of Paul's songs were just as successful in Canada too.

[Doobie1975]

@collinsjamesl That really sucks that his Greatest Hits album is not available on iTunes in Canada, I'm really sorry that has to be the case, I think Paul Davis is a very underrated artist and I thought all of the songs I've heard are really good.

[AquaCarb]

@Doobie1975 If you have a song list of the CD, I'd download the songs and make a CD. Sometimes one has to improvise.



[go234ko96ts5]

RIP Paul Davis. What a great talent and voice. His music will live on forever. My favorite song by Paul is{ I Go Crazy}

[skipper8257]

Such a great loss. This guy had one of the sweetest voices ever. I don't think he could make a bad song. R.I.P. Paul, we miss you.

[meandcoco]

I love the video so witty and fun... The words are truly a positive and uplifting message with a great beat! Thank you for sharing!!!

[MrsAShoe]

EXCELLENT VIDEO....PUT TOGETHER VERY WELL...NOT FAMILIAR WITH THIS SONG...BUT DO LIKE SOME OF HIS OTHER'S!!!...R.I.P. PAUL DAVIS!!!

[7466309change]

awsome song has meaning.

[GreatGuyTN]

VERY clever . . . and well done, and an especially good subject -- WHAT A SONG! AquaCarb, help me understand just one part though . . . @ :59, 2:23, and 3:44 (plus one other spot but didn't capture the time) right when Paul sings "and he"ll" you have this book called "The Chic Entrepreneur" so . . . WAIT, was just typing this and I think I've got it now! The high HEEL for He'll . . . OK OK GOOD JOB!

[AquaCarb]

@GreatGuyTN Some of them are a stretch...

[wheelloaders]

I agree with all mate!! Awesome song!!

[ivanrich]

zzzzzz

[AquaCarb]

@ivanrich ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

[ivanrich]

@AquaCarb [picture of the word "This"] + [picture of the word "is"] + [picture of the word "boring]

[mendosm]

The first time I watched the video I didn't realize the song lyrics were appearing. How cool is that!!!

[AquaCarb]

@mendosm Its very cool.

[GiaJ1]

If you want something done prefectly, do it your self!

[DaveWollenberg]

Should've realized that this was a song 'bout God, when it came out. Paul hit #23 in Billboard, 5-17-80. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! RIP, brother Paul. See ya in Heaven!

[saiya79]

good job.....congratz.

[Doobie1975]

This song has helped me go through a difficult time of this one girl who I really liked who sadly didn't want anything to do with me anymore and yet she had more than enough time for her other friends and I've felt hurt and betrayed by it but I've somehow managed to retain all of the respect I've had for her and to wish her well knowing that me and her will be reunited in Heaven and I am more than willing to forgive her for wronging me cause God would forgive us for our sins.

[gdhgeorge]

GREAT EDITING!!! Congrats! Will you try doing the same with Rapper's Delight? haha... just kidding!! Good job.

[AquaCarb]

@gdhgeorge Look for an August 2011 release of the Long version of Rappers Delight. (I'm hoping sooner!)

[gdhgeorge]

@AquaCarb Wow!! that will be fantastic... and a looot of work... Look forward to seeing and enjoying it. Big congrats in advance!!

[AquaCarb]

@gdhgeorge When I printed the words out it was 8 pages long! I'm on page 6 now....

[AquaCarb]

@gdhgeorge Winding down. Hope to be finished in the next day or two.

[gdhgeorge]

@AquaCarb Now I feel guilty for putting you thru all of this LOL...!!

[AquaCarb]

@gdhgeorge The words I have are done. There is the last 20 seconds or so that I need to listen. Im at 14:12 and the song goes to 14:40. Ive used over 1,000 pictures in this video.

[discomax74]

Just Awesome!!!!

[Awesomeduud]

Living in this generation, alot of people are criticizing us religious people. I will ALWAYS have faith on the one and TRUE God.

[Doobie1975]

Great song, very inspiring song and message and it's very important to have Jesus Christ in our lives cause He is the Light!

[Tiggerlett]

I am so glad The Lord is his Lord. Such a talanted man, not to mention so good looking, love the loooong hair. Nice to know he is with the Lord

[PJJammie]

Very clever video! :)

[yampear]

The world has lost another prolific songwriter in Paul Davis. I did not realize that Paul also wrote this masterpiece of wonderful pop music. This song should be performed

in church so more people can be inspired as much as I was when I first heard it years ago.

[evporretta]

He was speaking of the Lord.

[TheZeke1974]

Ive never heard a song he did that i disliked!!

[SIGNALSTAT]

paul you were so right we just cant keep on living like we are living.those words are very true.what a shame you are gone now but thank god we have your music. rest in peace.

[Notinkeys0]

WOW! I loved your concept! EXCELLENT!!!

[MegaPurpleviolet]

Life is a little stressed at the moment. Thanks for the comfort tonight!

[erniekeebler]

It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto Thy name, O Most High:

Psalm 92:1

Wanna do your good turn for the day?

No matter who you are or what you've done, stop right now, and tell Him thank-you!

The Lord is GOOD!

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,

Psalm 107:2

[archiewawa]

hey u did good thanks for posting and god bless

[canway66]

This is one of those that stuck with me over the years...its haunting in a way. It envokes emotion in me I forget that I have.

[3nails3days1way]

Thanks for posting this great song--always did like it!

[hambon4lif]

It took my whole life to finally get this message, and I'll take it to my grave.

GOD bless!

[coysawyer]

@hambon4lif Aweseome revelation hambon! Praise God!

[ProfessorrussEditing]

Very clever .... not bad editing, but take it to the next level .... :-)

[AquaCarb]

I use what I have. Would like to make more videos with motion, what do you know that I don't?

[ProfessorrussEditing]

Not sure I know more ... probability is that I don't. :-) But a background for you vertical book covers and a little perspective may have some surprising results. Just a couple of thoughts.

Have Fun ...that's the most important thing.

[1970MarkC]

I remember hearing this song as a kid, but not since then. I didn't know he was talking about Jesus. That makes me enjoy it even more. What a great artist and nice job on the vid. Love it!

[vivalv17]

How creative!! So Original!!!

[studdog01]

Fantastic job AquaCarb. Great song and great message.

[DaveWollenberg]

Paul was a Christian. See you in Heaven, my brother. Peace

[classychic111]

This song always makes me cry. It reminds me when I was in my '30's, young, beautiful, and a hope of a happy future. But that was not meant to be. It's sad how your life completely changes.

[seilling]

god bless you paul davis R.I.P

[funkysoulguy]

so CLEVER!!! did it take long to make this vid???

[AquaCarb]

about 25 hours

[ritlagaboma]

And, you've taken your time for a positive cause !!!

Good!

RIP Paul Davis.

[mariabe21]

not understand why the love has to be so sad and express it of so

sentimental way,

thanks for song, i loved

[josetoucan]

AMEN! Paul Davis! Thank you for the gift of music and message!  It lives on.

[pauldavisfan]

I love the video - extremely clever! Beautiful song.

[Icenall]

Lida música(Wonderfull music) a qual irêi cantar e dançar com os meus filhos.THANK VERY MUTCH.

[bomberchevy]

Hey you nice!

[psychodelicide]

I've always loved the lyrics to this song, they're very spiritual.

[psychodelicide]

Paul Davis is gone too? Dang, that's ashame. :-(

[erniekeebler]

uncommonly good!

[caliger617]

Great songwriter! Wow, we lose QUALITY contributors to the music industry like Paul Davis, Dan Seals, Kelly Groucutt(E.L.O) and George Harrison.............but yet the world nearly stops for Michael Jackson. Go figure!!

[Goombah777]

Tremendous song and presentation...

[jimgiblin]

awesome job on the slide show!!!! that is alot of self help books :D

[hec1086]

fuuuuuck ! excuse my french! i haven't heard this song for a very very long time!and i love it.

[bartb13]

Cute slide show. I do have to say as long as I have *heard* this song, I just recently *LISTENED* to the words and see its religious context. I think it should be an anthem for Obama. God Help us. Especially the part at at 2:50. Seems to speak to to the times right now. Perhaps in a few years it will mean something to different to me but for now I think some of our elected officials need to really *listen* to this.

[mkrais]

Very, Very Well done. I really enjoyed this

[Phreestylgurl]

i remember this song..my parents use to listen to this..i was like 5

[yodavalentine]

great lyrics/what do you think?

[CyndeDawn]

FABULOUS job Keith, thanks for making me smile with your perfectly choreographed version of one of my favorite songs. Thanks for sharing with us :)

[yesman1062]

Great Video, great song! Brings back the Good O'l Days memories. RIP Paul.

[myp410up]

Excellent vid. This ROCKS! Thanks for posting!

[davesharon5747]

U did a great job with the video. Very clever!

[SarahLynnTea]

Another great video && almost equally wonderful song. Paul Davis had some amazing songs!

[ronsandberg]

You did an awesome job with this video. Very clever idea! I love Paul Davis' songs. He was such a nice person and he will be missed very much. I'm sure he is with God now, singing with the angels!

[ikakeyanotenbinbou]

Very good idea!  Amusing!
