Now this is "REAL MUSIC"! Why can't the R & B Artists of today make music like this? I may be a white person, but I know good music when I hear it and Phillis Hyman was great! I played her dance songs in clubs where the crowd was majority white, and they dance to this song! Phillis may be gone, but her music lives on! This is REAL GOOD STUFF, only the best!
I LOVE YOU PHILLIS!! YOU ARE THE BEST THAT EVER DID IT!! YOU DID NOT GET THE RECOGNITION YOU DESERVED!! YOU ARE THE BEST IN MY BOOK!! LOVE AND MISS YOU!! YOUR MUSIC LIVES ON FOEVER!! R. I. P.
omg! this is my first time EVER seeing phyllis hyman. ive had her music all this time on my ipod but never once thought she'd look this beautiful. wow! she didnt turn out the way i expected her to look.....by going by her voice alone, i thought she'd be much older and (dont know why) heavy set. ;)
Why did this music ever have to go away.This was what music was all about.There's no singing about what's going in the hood or a bro blowing another bro away. I couldn't agree with you more KMYA4ME,the trash today is put on a pedestal.I really really miss this music,
because it was what music was all about. Phyllis Hyman had a beautiful and it's sad that we
Beauty, vocals and a tortured soul. Phyllis, you were one of the best. It's too bad the famous don't rub elbows with the little people. Someone who was in tune to her could have helped. R.I.P.
@CharlesBarry Look up Lisa Steinfield. She's a white woman who did this song over in the mid 90's. It is pretty good but nothing like Miss Phyllis Hyman.
@mdjoint301 Hi, I do know of Lisa Stansfield I even have alot of her early work, I did'nt know Lisa sang this one, I even looked the song by her very nice, Thanks for the info !
i love this song so much,this was the first song i first heard from phyllis hyman,now,i have her greatest hits,and i love them all,i miss you so much phyllis,you will forever be in my heart,r.i.p.
She was a bad sister for sure. I just loved her voice. Who would think she was suffering in the inside. People we should alway tell the person we love we love them, because we never know if we will see them tomorrow.
Play this song over & over, miss her but she is singing in Heaven with the Angel's Choir :) She is so pretty...wish she wasn't so very sad in her personal life.
@IsaAmonRa more importantly songs today arent really "songs" theyre not structured etc, theyre really ring tones more than songs as I tell my younger friends who only know the stuff they hear on radio today.
THANX FOR THIS. MY FAMILY KNEW HER PERSONALLY. SHE WAS FIGHTING ALOT OF DEMONS BUT ALL N ALL A REALLY GOOD PERSON AND AN AMAZING TALENT.. SHE IS TRULY MISSED
Unfortunately times change & this is no longer the norm BUT the good thing is this stuff (GREAT MUSIC) is locked in time so it doesnt actually go anywhere, we can pull it up anywhere, anytime we feel the urge to flashback into the greatest times in our lives & on that i truly thank the old school artist both living & past away for giving us such great music & memories & THANK GOD for letting them touch our lives both us the old school & a lot of the new school, job well done ; )
This is the time when you could hang out late at night with your boys listening to your boombox and no jokers would walk by you with there pants hanging down!!!miss those days....
I just couldn't believe that she ended her own life. There is always a better tomorrow and she was loved so much by her fans. Sorry it wasn't enough to get her through.
Back in the day I really connected to this song. I had it on vinyl and I played it over and over. I was going through some things, and this was my "feel-good-song".
Me and my friends used to hustle our asses off on this jam! LOL
I wonder what pushed her over the edge... she killed herself in her hotel room right before she was to go on stage. I wonder if someone called and said someting to her, or she just got to thinking about all the men who did her wrong...either way it is so sad
Saw Jazz with Mary J Blige in Va. Beach last year ....she is suptin else...wonderful talent....could replicate phyliss sound...so real...so pure...tears flowin!!!
@divatildaend Wow! Great minds think alike. I agree with you 100%. As soon as I saw Jazmine Sullivan, and heard her voice, I said the same thing. I would love to see that happen.
as much that i want to jam to this bbq track..A lot of me usually just walk and converse with the sky...I can still hear my HI-Fi playing this u know b4 we came in for supper.. 1 Love to any that knows whwere I'am comin from..
Emotional pain is the hardest thing to deal with,because its something that u can't take anything for the pain,physically pain is something else at least u know and can see where the pain is coming from and how to deal with it. MISS YOU RIP MISS HYMAN
It's sad that a woman which such talent and hope,took her own life.NOBODY SHOULD COMMIT SUICIDE,NO MATTER HOW HARD TIMES OR THEIR LIFE IS.I've been in the military and lived out of the back of my truck for a whole year before. Some people don't understand that you can always be in a worse or better situation than you are.I don't care what you are going through,it's not worth taking your own life. RIP Phyllis Hyman,we all miss you!! PJ from LA
I had a mad crush on her. It was almost embarrassing. I thought she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. A timeless beauty and she could put it down, too! Rest our sweet Nefertiti We luv and miss u. In that day we will all be together again
THIS SONG GIVES ME THE CHILLS EVERYTIME!!!!...NOT B/C OF HER DEATH BUT JUST THE SHEER BRILLIANCE OF HER VOICE & THE RHYTHM...IT'S HARD TO EXPLAIN..JUST GLAD I KNOW REAL MUSIC....PEACE FROM DA ATL
7 people have zero soul, 7 people have zero rhythm, 7 people are losers & they don't even know it, yet still we must show love for the 7 who just don't understand a dam fine song!
@ricemilk All the more reasons why we should be thankful, grateful, and excited about life...we're the winners in life who got soul, and rhythm...Too bad some just don't got it...
ah cascading twilight into night out into the scenic views of pleasure and accumulation. Hearing this song is sweet ,uplifting and touch the medians like a rippling beach. sung so real and impacted essence. I like the feel and touch of this song. She is very good singer.
I agree with the comments that have been posted. The world is crazy when exceptional talent goes unrecognized or unappreciated. I think it's proof that mass popularity and good taste do not necessarily go hand in hand. To put Phyllis Hyman and Justin Bieber in the same sentence when discussing singers, to me, is absolutely ludicrous!!
I just set my iHome to wake up to this every morning. I don't have a man but this song makes me wake up dancing and I don't care if I am dancing alone.
The lady in the cubicle next to me just IM'd me and said, "get it girl." This song just makes you want to move every part of your body. It's so nice to know she wasn't always sad. She had to have been happy when she made/sang this song. Like she said, "there's no denying, sweet as the morning light." The mood of this song is just that!
Go with the flow: You cant't help urself they don't make music like this anymore. If you don't know how to love you will when this song is finished. Phyllis RIP
If there was Internet back during the 70's and 80's songs like this would have as much fanfare and views as the likes of justin beever lol and lady gaggs so people's don't get your panties n a bunch because the views of the likes of these kinds of jams don't get much recognition on here believe me peeps know these are the real jams and it's mostly young cats that frequent these sites because most older cats work and have families without much time to sit for hours listening youtube
@leefbucks1 You sound like a Bro. I respected (bass player) from LA, moved to Virginia a year ago. Sad, I never forgot this Phenomenal, Beautiful Woman that God created. Only He truly knows what she was going through in her life. I have mentioned her name before and many people don't know of this RARE talent. She was as sweet as she was a gorgeous Black Woman. And let me say this kind of talent we don't see or hear of anymore!! Phyllis Hyman, tall, statuesque, earthy, mystique, classic act! WOW!
I truly hope Phylis has found the peace and love she so desparetely sought in her young life. Searching for love and never finding it will kill you, it kills your spirit and hinders your soul. She was a victim of that and couldn't handle the pressure of relationships that didn't flourish so she took her own life rip.
Amazing woman and artist, this song one of her very best and she had many beautiful songs, sadly she is not here but left us so much in her songs, we wil never forget her....
Now this is "REAL MUSIC"! Why can't the R & B Artists of today make music like this? I may be a white person, but I know good music when I hear it and Phillis Hyman was great!

she was extremely underrated in her time, and if it wasn't for her fans like Arsenio Hall, we wouldn't have even seen her in the nineties.

Phyllis Hyman is an orignal master piece. True singer hands down.

@eric2181965 James Mtume was a genius! I especially loved his work with Phyllis and Stephanie. I really miss his legendary sound :)

back in the day this was my happy song. A song no matter how mad or sad I was it would make me happy and make me want to wake up another day.

I just remember this being a great time musically. I spent every dime I had on albums. EW&F, Chic, etc. I miss that time. Kool and the gang

I play this song in my car weekly, usually when the weather is nice and with the sunroof wide open! It always puts me in a great mood.
