Luther Vandross - Hello

[ayannace]

Where is the LOVE button, like isn't sufficient! I absolutely LOVE this performance! R.I.P. Luther V.

[AngelaParkerMusic]

I was in the front row when he sang this....nah, I'm just dreaming. x

[Mocredible]

Thumbs up, if you believe that this shouldve been at 100 million views already.

[MrJeremysbad]

Mr. Richie your good bro but don't have nothing on Luther doing this song he beats you by far

[peter21509]

both are mavelous is not good to speculate about who is better or not ,they wouldn't worked together to be speculated by us lets not be disgrace to them couse they respeceted each other.

[shadowphurba]

man, both are amazing, both are awesome, just because ppl disagree on who sings better, just know they both are who they are. lionel had his own version to it, and luther had his, so what im saying is both are great, at singibg this, so remember you will say hello to luther in heaven :)

[noysantos]

The greatest interpretation of the song ever....better than lionel richie's version...full of passion and sincerity...the voice convey the essence of the lyrics...luv it......and luv it more as i listen it a thousand times...and more...

[andykei34]

he could make this his song, he has such originality

[reziboy100]

beautiful!!. but I disagree with everyone here. I think Lionel's version was better :D

[TesDB]

@reziboy100 yeah me too i think Lionel version was better cause i heard it first but even then i like it more

[shallwe08]

Thinkin about a sweet and talented guy in NYC....."NEVER EVER GIVE UP"!!!!! YOU ARE CERTAINLY ON YOUR WAY!!!!!!!!!!!! ;) x

[deutschegabbana]

This is way better than Lionel´s version, imho.

[Nusii55]

Beautiful<3

[Discernaoftruth]

what two fools disliked this song? BTW: Lionel is an awesome writer like Luther, but when it comes to SINGING.....LUTHER ALL DAY. Luther OWNED this song (no disrespect to Lionel)

[UTCWIRED]

@Discernaoftruth

...must be some jerkfaces !

[McKlmB]

Luther covered this song so beautifully. He absolutely owned this song.

[MrNtaba]

that is luther not lionel, who's song is it?

[JonP1961]

@MrNtaba

ours :)

[groovynes]

WOW, I have always loved him, but this song, just made me cry, I have been in a long distance relationship forever you know, and she is finally here with me, and I can say good morning and night, and hold her when she is afraid, and I could not help but just break down in tears thanking god for the amazing gift he has given me, by bringing our to souls together you know RIP Luther, we all miss you, and thank you once again for opening my eyes to Lifes greatest gift, LOVE

[rysim1984]

wow, i never appreciated Luther til he was gone. but now i am sooooooo sad. i mean he has chops the best in the business for a male and might i add one of few that can give ms Pattie a run for her money. Luther i miss you and you are in my heart. xx

[prisville]

the guy just killed the song ouhhhhhhhhhhhhh blow me away

[DAGNoRestrictions]

Just feel the VIBE it's greater then Lionel's, and yes i'm a fan of lionel, but Luther Is the one.

[delocon36]

Ya can't beat an original, I'd never say Lionel ever sang one of luthers songs better than the big man did. Respect to Luther, beautiful version of an all time beautiful song

[daisyld2]

I absolutely love him so much this is almost making me cry! His voice is so so full of emotion it makes you wonder why the song wasn't written for him.

[fjm3306]

come on guys luther is amazing but nothing beats an original

[Sidicd1]

Wow .... no words left..

[AnimeLover1215]

Wait he died!? How!? So much better than Lionel's.

[nellie2581]

[tamboro5130]

[SuperNero999]

I'll never forgive god for Luther's death!!!

[meastrobas]

[1Systerkatt]

I just can think of one thing watching Luther: WHY???

[09Squadboy]

Why couldn't this be Luther's song! Lionell was a good singer but this song just sound like it was made for Luther

[naturalblkluv]

[Ado0o0o1st]

[EcdsKO1323O]

[koffeeblack]

Now that was amazing!

[437mel]

So did mine Linda. I still cry to this day everytime I hear that sweet sweet voice.

[Linda954]

No one has even come close to the bar that Luther set and I doubt anyone ever will. Luther was in a class all his own. My heart broke in a million pieces when he died but being able to listen to his incredible voice eases the pain a little bit. RIP Luther. You will always and forever be loved and missed.

[bernadette358]

BNJ! Yes it is you!

[mowwam]

how can this man not be here on earth anymore??? effortless...peace x

[Ijan909]

That VOICE.....heavenly.......

[jefflevin18]

Luther Van Dross - the velvet voice, the soulful

delivery, the joy he brings - is unique!!

No matter what Luther sings he tugs at our heart

strings and brings joy, lots of it to all who listen and view him. Sadly, Luther passed away. But thankfully, we still hae his videos, his great music. He is still bringing the world joy today! God bless you Luther. We all miss you.

Sing with the Angels! They will also appreciate you!!

[texanhoustonguy]

He sings this WAY better than Lionel.

[jadedmoon13]

lionel is ok,but luther is amazing with this song....he got so much soul,and his songs r sung with feelings,u cant help but to admire him.he is gone,but his music will live on forever.not like u losers who will give a thumbs down to luther and all the good things people say about him.u will be soon forgotten.lol,live on luther.u were the best

[nattyred1977]

Luther is the greatest, he'll forever be missed...

[choguita]

[dediamantes]

[Victoria19860616]

IMÁDOM!!!

[koreanstevie]

when ever luther covers someone else's song, he is still able to put soo much passion into it, even if its not one of his own. He is truly great

[ZachyZach69]

This man really found his talent and made the very best use of it,he's a "powerpiece" he made Lionel Richie's version looks small

[cherDJ]

This man's voice is just angelic - I swear ! I liked this song by Lionel Richie - but Luther's version blows Lionel's away ! Beautiful, beautiful song - love it ! This man has true passion in his voice.

[UkraineTV]

Tribute to a True Fallen Legend.

[Julie8L]

oh meister

[alphaboy200]

Awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Lionel Riechie performance at least words have meaning.....

great singer

[Linda954]

Luther made this song his own, so much so that I forgot about Lionel Ritchie.  He was magnificant as usual. I will always regret that he is no longer with us but his music will live forever. Rest in peace Luther. You will be forever loved.

[ha3uxzp]

this is beautiful

[phoenixye]

nobady compares to him

[RikkiRikkiRikki]

Dahm guys, I voted about 10 times about the comments made under this beautiful clip.

Respect.

[louisealix]

I saw Luther somewhere around 1985 in Birmingham (UK) - what an honour. Never got to see him again - thank goodness for YouTube! The biggest tear-jerker/romantic/comedian I've ever seen on stage!!

[crumpettt]

luther can sing anything and it always sounds even better than whoever sang it originally! I'm 25 and never got to see him live but i so wish i could of! hes my fave and always will be.....Love you Luther x

[greenlllllllllllllll]

you took the text right out of my keyboards.

[CausalObserver74]

I second that emotion.

[johnmcgrath6827a]

wow 3:00

[unicogerald]

God just needed another super great singer in heaven. wow he was the best.

[young0607]

Good comment

[RikkiRikkiRikki]

+1

Trully amazing............

[GoldenAgeSunshine]

One should be a true outstandingly gifted magician to be able to give such a moving, perfectly projected and controled rendition of this song. What a perfect voice, superb phrasing and color, what an Artist, what a Gentleman! We miss you so much, Luther: sing to the angels, they'll rejoice and it will make us believe in a better world, if possible. You've made this come true. R.I.P.

[BrownReggie]

that high note at 1:38 was immaculate...

[electricwave]

Two of my favorite singers passed away in a year or so; first, Luther, and then, Gerald Levert.

[PeterBluth]

What a great song and a great singer. Miss ya, big guy.

[Laceydog]

Luther,

Thank you for providing the world with your magnificent voice. We miss you terribly. God bless you always. Heaven's chorus is so much better these days.

[rhaivaen]

very good, but i prefer the lionel ritchie version more by tone..

[tutledupp]

I only got one word: AMAZING.

[carolspc]

The Voice. The Words. And those eyes!!OMG! RIP Luther!

[andershenr]

GREAT SONG! enough said! GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT! =) Wish he was here to make some more like theese.. ='(

[billyboy11]

ONeSsSEo THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS MASTERPIECE OF A COVER my all time great and inspirational singer, What soul and feeling the guy had, will be missed for an eternity.

[504Diva]

like i always say, once luter has done a song, it's been DONE!

[lirico2008]

Time after time luther has proven his self to be the best at what he does sing he's ass off.
