@jorgemarcellos : i agree..i saw his concert with George Benson few years back. Al Jarreau will always be one of the very best vocalist ever lived. This song is one of my favorites ever.
Realmente este é um fabuloso artista,cantor de uma qualidade extraordinária,não precisa falar muito dele a própria voz fala por si,de uma suavidade contagiante.Cada música que ouço dele é motivo para mim apreciar mais ainda seu talento!!
Random fun fact: This song was co-written by Keith Stegall, who these days is a well known country music producer- working with Randy Travis, Alan Jackson and George Jones, among others.
This was when guys didn't have to have tattoos or big muscles to be appealing to the ladies. This is when men could wear white and pink and not be called a fag. This was a great time for men.
@girl1789 you mean it has ZERO " dislikes"...you said "likes." YOU KNOW WHY? BECAUSE THIS IS "REAL MUSIC..." THE STUFF THEY HAVE OUT TODAY IS BY NO MEANS "MUSIC." EVERYONE KNOWS THAT HERE...THESE ARE REAL MUSIC CONNISEURS...( DID I SPELL THAT RIGHT?"
We In This Luv 2gether.. "One GOD 1 Luv" :) Watch, "In The Church" - Diamond D.O.G (Disciple Of GOD) "Rated One Of The Best Gospel Hip - Hop Remakes Ever"
Some of the best music ever....love the feeling it gives you This kind of music is not even written anymore and im not sure anyone would appreciate it today. Al J is one of the greatest talents of our era..that' s for sure.
DON'T WORRY....IT WILL NEVER COME BACK....THIS IS REAL MUSIC....THESE ARE REAL SINGERS...AL CAN ACTUALLY "SING" A TUNE....NOTICE ALL THE BLACK DUDES TODAY....JUST RAP AND HOLLER CUSS WORDS IN A MIKE....AND THEY CALL THAT MUSIC/SINGING? I BET 95 % OF ALL RAP DUDES CANNOT SING IN "TUNE" TO SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS "JINGLE BELLS." THAT PROVES THEY HAVE NO "REAL" TALENT TODAY....
@justcruzzinn I'm in the exact situation, grade 11 this year. Honestly I can't believe that it was so long ago that I first heard Al, I'm so thankful that I have jazz musician parents, that introduced me.
WOW....11TH GRADE....I GOT OLD....BUT AT LEAST I LIVED MY BEST YEARS LATE TEENS IN THE EARLY 80'S AND 90'S...MUSIC, FUN, WAS THE BEST.....GIVE ME A THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE THAT MY 80'S WERE THE BEST! YEAH!!!
See the amazing Al Jarreau for his Greatest Hits Tour in London 2011 on the 3rd of July at The Royal Festival Hall, 24th of July Birmingham Symphony Hall and on the 25th of July at the Manchester Bridgewater Hall! It's also his first time back to Manchester and Birmingham in 15 years.
I heard he was an English teacher before he started singing professionally. And, yes, I agree, the Felix the Cat pin is just the cherry on top! Love ya, Al!
I was at a wedding two weeks ago and the dj (me) played Roof Top Garden, and the people really enjoyed hearing that jam! Everyone was feeling that. Good music will always have a place in society and all the garbage that is coming out, just leave it at the store or on the internet.
@agfagaevart You are not old.I remember people who were 35 looked like 50 ,and i knew people who were 62 and still behave as a 30 year old.So remember your age is just a number nothing more
This song brought me back to the Caribbean when we would forget about the struggles of everyday life when it was simple.The Nostalgic feel I get from this tune, will always make me appreciate Musical Geniuses such as a Al Jarreau:The Crown Prince of Jazz.
So where in the World does this Nostalgic feel ot this song takes you?
I find this arrangement uplifting and a surefire pickmeup.................Al looked a happy soul back in '81..............hope he's over his recent spell of illness................he deserves good health bringing so much joy to the masses.
love it!
