OMG! I LOVE this SONG! SO BEAUTIFUL, SO SAD, so GREAT, a song that withstands the test of time, & DONNY'S version is NO EXCEPTION! LOVE him, Leon, Elton, no one, & nothing can ruin this song! RIP DONNY! GOD BLESS!
This is some REAL man stuff right here! It takes a REAL man to express this DEPTH of love to his lady....I feel the same way about mine, so I sing this to her all of the time!
nobody can take away what Donnie sings in this song it is truly spectacular! Others may do an incredible job but.....Donnie is first. If you like instrumentals listen to Kirk Whalum"s version from His Everything is Everything album>
I love you in a place where there's no space or time....dear God...Leon Russell's words and the utter soulful singing of Donny...so incredible, unmatched...entirely different take than the incredible Ray Charles version...this one just seems more heartbreaking...
We were alone....and I was singing this song to you...
Thank you Donny...for letting us feel this beauty...and sorrow...
I was about 15 when I turned on the radio one New Years Day morning and learned that he had jumped to his death. At that time, the only song of his that I was familiar with was "The Closer I Get To You".....I felt such a loss...I got the feeling that it really wasn't supposed to be his "time".
Donny Hathaway created a classic with his vocal styling. Like too many great artists, he left us so young.
