Love this song and the movie. Thanks to my father who introduce this song and the film to me.

who else thought that small picture of the man shooting in the bottom left corner was a dick spewing nut.

[acemanfran]

This song is a classic. Very beautiful song. Also sampled by Dwele.(from 4.11 onwards) Song called If you want to on the sketches of man album...

[cuzzo3099]

best damn song al ever had!!

[ebony38ish]

I loved the movie and love this song. Thanks for the upload.

[jensmusicfaves]

Incredible!! Had no idea this song existed until today. I think AJ was doing lots of soundtrack commissions around that time - see "Rompin' and Stompin'" from the Dick Tracey soundtrack.

[jeneparlepa]

I watched today "Do The Right Thing" on French TV. It's an amazing movie, Spike did the right thing. And Al Jarreau's song is very nice.

[AniasAndDemari]

Wow....Al killed it again and totally out of the blue from 4:11 to end..... speechless!!!!

[zezepuppet]

We should all Do The Right Thing. What a great movie.

[Terri2799]

Always LOVE this song!!!

[delledean2020]

"From the heart of Bed-Stuy... W-V-L-O-V-E!!! I love that! 

[jarbon5]

This is such a nice song, and I can see this song playing as the credits roll at the end of the movie. Still, this is a wonderful song:)

[laksmist]

wonderfull

[funkkidmusic301]

this is what music is all about!!!!

[kim123792]

THANK YOU MR. AL YOUR THE BEST I LOVE YOU I SEEN YOU PERFORM LIVE ONCE YOU ARE THE BEST AS ALWAYS LOVE YOU.

[heluvagal]

REALLY love this song –so much in fact that in 1990 we chose it as the song for our 1st dance at our wedding reception. It’s just as beautiful now as it was when we first heard it in 1989 at the movie theatre. Thanks for posting!

[kLiDaN]

Great atmosphere with the string instruments, so relaxing. :)

[VIRGOLEGACY]

can you post "why dont we try" ?

[KeemSong1]

this song is played on the credits its beautiful song made me look it up myself!

[uegmusic]

I wrote and produced this piece for Spike with Mr Jarreau. It was the culmination of a teenage dream to work with Mr. Jarreau. I am so thankful that the work has been received and appreciated

[mr01FABIO]

Nice times !

[MrWhatevaman]

such a classic!!

[dolphingigglez]

My favorite Movie of all time!

[mecheware]

You know i had to say something about this song, this is one of the songs that is the sound track of my life. I know you feel life to my brother!

[sputnik9453]

A haunting, yet beautiful melody with those strings. I still get teary eyed whenever

I hear this.

[delledean2020]

4:11-5:54 the strings are tearing it up!!! the best part is 4:40-5:28

[MrAirbrushblacc]

Man, I Do airbrush at my shop...... while listening to this inspirational song!!!!

[mkl62]

One of the songs from Do the Right Thing, which was Nicholas Turturro's debut.

[nvjharmonica]

Someone please post the song by Al called: Let's pretend- it's from the CD entitled High Crime Thanx a bunch.

[EyzeOpen]

Thank you for posting this. Beautiful song!

[BrotherBlaccspider]

Classic Al Jarreau right here.............

[universalmessenger]

5:13 on is so beautiful it makes me cry.

[Winnn77]

So touching

[DMCdawg]

Not a huge Jarreau fan, but this song is perfect during Do the Right Thing's closing credits. Great, great song.

[ronnjonnlovely]

LoveLoveLove this song!!!! this song really takes me back, and really love the ending....!

[sfj07]

Al Jarreau's best song!!!

[shjakes]

@sfj07 YUP!

[hawk007t]

Very frustrated that this song can't be downloaded from Itunes....

[Chaka70]

@hawk007t

I thought it was just me. ITUNES gets on my nerves sometimes; the songs you think they WOULD have often are the very songs they do NOT have. LOVE THIS SONG!!!

The strings at the end are awesome.

[iredescent]

@hawk007t

No kidding!!! After I found this song on here, I went to iTunes to purchase it and those suckers didn't have it. Thank goodness for YouTube!

[sputnik9453]

@hawk007t TRY GOING TO IMEEM.COM  ANOTHER OPTION WOULD BE A USED COPY FROM AMAZON.COM THIS SOUND TRACK IS NO LONGER BEING MADE.

GOOD LUCK.

[Teardehawkee]

@hawk007t Go to Limewire.

[ectowle]

This song has a Jaco Pastorious hook that ALSO comes alive;A song noted in it's own right.

[iredescent]

This song totally fits the conclusion to the movie. I mean with the excerpts from the Great Martin Luther King, Jr and Malcolm X speeches having digested that, then hearing this song is the icing on the cake! Love it!

[MrStereo]

Sound's like "Human Nature" !

[oholm08]

@MrStereo IT NOT SOUND HUMAN NATURE

[darkram13]

Anyone else pop in their DVD from time to time just to skip to these credits? Such a great movie..... :-)

[universalmessenger]

Al Jarreau's voice and his music always "DO the RIGHT THING FOR ME!"

[flute4]

Agreed. DTRT soundtrack was a fabulous soundtrack! I was involved in the soundtrack and Al and Spike, were wonderful to work with...

[RFSA88]

@flute4  In what capacity were you involved?

[puppyeyes1996]

@RFSA88 I would say she was very involved, for, she wrote the song!

[Knyte77]

@flute4: so modest, CB. So, so modest!

[devonteMdavis]

I'm only 17 and I understand REAL MUSIC. If only others can understand such a beautiful song.. *Sniff-Sniff*..

[HoustonRocket101]

The best film I have ever seen and I have seen thousands of films- its a shame spike never made a film this good again.

[mkhomero]

Agreed! I have Do the Right Thing and The Shawshank Redemption as my top 2 films of all-time. This is a powerful, heartelt film that enriched me like no other film has. This film should be back in theaters every year.

[kenmarv71]

@mkhomero Couldn't agree with you more about Do The Right Thing. An awesome film. I'll always remember the feeling of being, "punched in the gut" at the end of the film. It had that much impact on me, that I sat until the credits ended(which I don't usually do)

[deltasigmatheta4life]

I miss this the 80's!!! Time was just great!!!! Wish I could go back!!

[2blakandbold]

Too under rated.I enjoy this song so much!!!!

[mjstvnsn]

Do the Right Thing, was one of the best soundtracks I purchased. I need to get that one again if I can find it.

[3bbrown]

anyone knows where I can buy this song, Never explain Love by Al Jarreau?

[Tone2005]

Man this track really gives you that real smooth vibe from the movie itself. Very mellow and jazzy

[C00LGur1]

Great Song

[darkram13]

I've been trying to find this song without messing up my computer OR buying either CD (not a fan).

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[syr1811]

I'm not even an Al Jarreau fan, but I LOVE this song.

Everything about this is Amazingly Perfect.

Love Spike & Loved the movie, too.

[peaksideprince]

its about time someone put this up here lol

[hipshimmy]

This song was the primary reason I bought the soundtrack.

[MrWhatevaman]

Awesomeness!!!!!!!

[Lennyfran]

This song is amazing!

[bacardilvr]

BEAUTIFUL SONG!

[Y2JboyKc]

I'm so pleased to hear that you guys appreciate Al Jarreau, My boyz don't understand a classic mack

[HoustonRocket101]

A truly great and very underated song wonderfuly melancholic but at the same time very upliting 10/10

Todays artists need to pay attention this is how it should be done.

[deitchy87]

its sad that you dont hear songs like this in mainstream music all you hear now is bull shit that you forget a soon as its over. i wish real artists got high acclaim for the songs that they put out

[tortellino23]

You're so right. But it's not gonna change, music is shit right now and all we got is past , memories.

[miavierra]

THIS TAKE'S ME BACK!

[deitchy87]

hearing music like this makes me wish i was born earlier

[DrOctagon20]

Been waiting for someone to post this since August 2008 (when I discovered this track at the end credits). Sampled by Dwele for "I Still Love You"

[MusicLova84]

Finally watched this movie on tv last night, heard this song and loved it!!! Glad i watched the end credits :-)

[D1Skip1]

Prettiest composition I have ever heard. Great song/music writing by Cathy Block. Coupled with beautiful lyrics by Raymond Jones and the sweet smooth voice of Mr. Al Jarreau

[freddyg319]

Yea thi$ $ong i$ dope. N idk why but everytime I hear thi$ $ong, I think of Radio Raheem being taken away by 5-0 after they choked him 2 death. Man I $till can't beleive they did that to my man, and thi$ i$ a movie that came ou t20 yr$ ago!!

[Blueyedpirate]

My neighbors HATED me behind

[Poliotas]

Who wrote this song ? Sounds little like Bill Champlin ?.. What year it was this film ? Great song !

[tbonemagnum]

[SuperAV21]
