His generation was the personification of cool. A time when black men were accountable , responsible , and faithful. And then came the vietnam conflict and the civil rights movement. .
@tbursee sam cooke cooke got killed after being in a mix-up with a prostitute. I love Sam Cooke and he was an extraordinary genius but he was most definitely not faithful to his wife lol. doesn't matter to me either way
@eschulz1987 He was murdered by the mob. When men deal with prostitutes , mistresses, whores , etc, they usually take special precaution because they have a lot to loose. There is no way a Brian McKnight or Denzel would be caught up like that. There was no blood on the ground, every bone in his body was broken ( by a 60 year old lady?), and his Ferrari was still running with the top down. Thats not a crime scene , its a cover up.
God give's Sam a gift that let us remember that all nice things in life com's from the Lord.Music,poem's,love an so many more,but still,thanks to the Lord to give us Sam.
NO SE QUE PASO EN SU VIDA ..PARA QUE TERMINARA DE ESA MANERA.......LA CARA OCULTA DE CADA CUAL NADIE LA SABE.........PERO CANTABA COMO DIOSSSSSSSSS........DIVINO........SE ME ROMPE EL ALMA........
Just listen to the the way he sings "So Long" at the beginning of this song. My, my, my. This is where soul music comes from- the "soul". Which is why artists like Sam can't be duplicated. You can't copy someone's "soul".;-)
...I'm a dude and I get goosebumps listening to sam Cooke sing! He is by far the Greatest singer ever! To those who have never heard of him>Please collect his music....
@Mtatsfi9 im 58 years old sam use to sing this song to me when iwas 12 years old talking about goosebumps i know just what you mean i still have them when i hear his music ther is only 1 sam cooke voice in the world my freind please ckeck out louis williams of the ovations having a party you will love him he is the close as you going to get to sams voice hit me back if you like it diane of palmsprings ca.
Thank you for all your videos. I've been searching for the not so well known songs and it seems like you've got them all. Sam's my favorite of all time. Then, now & forever... Mr. Sam Cooke. I hope they make a movie about his life & music like "Ray" Oh, boy I'd be there in a heartbeat!
@dukejah88 -- Yeah...you know, his life was one that was very short lived and his music career was even shorter. But he left us a plurality of classics to be enjoyed always. To some extent, his legacy (that is...his music) allows for him to continue in perpetuity as one of the, if not (the), best crooner to ever harmonized with a microphone.
@Democrat64 ABKCO, Allen Klein's company which owns Sam's punlishing, is currently making a film on Sam's life...just be careful, the info within the movie just might be skewed a bit...
@kevynewman Good ?...Sam's gospel roots are pre 1950..with the QC's and The singing Children ( Agnos I miss U, LC, see you soon). He was def. pre Marvin, Solomon and Otis........Cooke
Hey right .... i need to discover ...or get somebody to release an non obvious sam cooke compilation of the stuff that never comes out..... like this one... like the great pretender....like the only girl in the world ...... please mobilise and help, or best of all a total sam cooke discography box set once and for all..........
his voice, the swagger in his voice, the smooth delivery (even if you can't see him) has the ability to pull you in and take you to a place in your mind that's sooooooo sweet and refreshing..........c'mon youtubers, men and women alike....i couldn't be the only sam fan that feels this way when sam sings!
i find it absolutely amazing that a "dead man" still got it!!! lol
@L8GR848 - Your welcome, its my pleasure to share such a talented beautiful soul such as Sam Cooke. I grew up as a child in the 60s and my Father was a devout Sam Cooke fan. My father played his music all the time, so i guess it became a part of the family legacy to share this beautiful music. My sons, now listen to Sams' beautiful music as well.
Your page exhibits your love for Soul Music and we are enjoying it. We appreciate Sam Cooke and his legacy and the pathway he's paved for the singers we know today. Yes, let's enjoy that "party" that he so much wants us to do "together". He said it all at the Coppa. "Keep Havin' that party." I appreciate your message on Vel Omarr's video and it was a wonderful example. Sanedra
Sam's beautiful and God given voice is so wonderfully pleasant with each new song I have the opportunity I am blessed to hear. Sam said at "The Copa" he didn't want to go, and to keep "having that party". Let's celebrate his voice always and the classic soul he represents and not strangle those who sound simliar or those who pay tribute. Sam was a giver & taught many well-known singers with his blueprint. Let's celebrate Sam as Elvis' fans have their party for Elvis. God bless all Fans! Sanedra
This is the time for all of us to enjoy and appreciate talented singers of the past. And Sam Cooke was true to his art and sharing his love of beautiful songs, its the only testament we have of greatness. I love RnB singers, Rock, some Pop, some Country, but i love Soul singers.
Maannn... neva heard this one before. So strongly reminiscent of "You Send Me". Sam Cooke's vocals are unmatched and are so beautiful that the Heavens rejoice as if it were Lucifer playin Heaven's very essence with his pipes.
I can Imagine Sam up in the heavenly realm singing his beautiful songs and sharing his love of the soul. I miss Sam Cooke and wish he were here with us.
The force of love is so pure through this brother and his beautiful voice.
Just amazing!!!
