George Benson - Love X Love (1980).wmv

[kemiseba2011]

memories!

[MrBillie1234]

Ahhh, my favorite George Benson song! The BEST part is @ the end, w/ the backup singers, especially @ 3:22 when, if you listen real carefully, you'll hear the male backups singing SOMEthing in a low base. THAT S*** IS SO HOT! ...lol

[Hellfire5500]

cool song !!

[leemarriott19651970]

[WillFeuermann]

[jvcalling]

Sleek and Sultry !!!

[utopiansoul61]

George is one of the greatest guitarists... deep jazz, and can play any minor 7th, 9th with the greatest heart...here he's just doing early 80's soul and it is so g-damned beautiful to hear the joy in both guitar and voice... George, oh lord...long ago nostalgia and the people you remind me of... here's to you and thank you! (See:"Affirmation")

[ponydownboy]

Takes my SOUL to another place in time....Since im here DETROIT STAND UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[iluvrachellef]

I'm a grown man that is very emotional listening to this.I don't think i've heard this in at least 23 years.Certain songs pop up in your head and if it weren't for YOUTUBE,many of these songs would be forgotten.YOUTUBE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PIER APRESENTA: "O SUCESSO DA CIDADE". ISSO ERA CLÁSSICO EM 1980 E 1981!!!

[brentwoodII123]

This song is still beautiful just like a woman I use to know back in the day. Always loved you Elaine Collins.

[gschilli]

this song comes from his (by far) best album......it was the first album released on the (then) new Quincy Jones' Qwest label......MARVELOUS!!!!!!

[mall440]

grandioso



[aGwEENapple]

This reminds me of my grandpa. I miss him.

Wish he never went.

[aGwEENapple]

OMG, such a good song! I love soul/R&B music!

I have to put this on my ipod!

[bjornark1000]

@aGwEENapple

Its a killer album! Also recommend Benson´s version of "The world is a ghetto" on his "In Flight Album". Classic :))

[jbt1961]

Excelent !!! How many memories!!! I love you George.

[pinofilm]

Ti Adoro!! Pino

[pacificpitbull]

10/10!!!



[solemandd67]

This is my FAV GB Track. He's at his Best! I've seen him live once and of every performer I've seen, and there have been many famous names, he is without the BEST!

[ExquisiteKinkyCoils]

love it!!!HE IS A LEGEND!!!

[Cejoelee3]

I love me some George Benson. His music is so awesome.

[MrFaluco]

Good George you hold me tight

[Hellfire5500]

great song !!

[SheLovesSmoothJazz]

Have always loved this song! It makes great exercise music for me. Helps me complete 100 sit ups and other routines in no time!

[jmillzz2]

Rod Temperton wrote half this album

[cleandiaper]

@jmillzz2 You have to give credit to Mr.Temperton no doubt, but without the "Q" it would never have happened. Whenever those two colllaborate it usually turns into platinum.

[jmillzz2]

@cleandiaper Absolutely. Incredible duo those two

[333KAW]

An another great one from a great artist.

[MissKaren1958]

feelin good listening to this, bringing back such good memories of a special man that was in my life at that time.

[ohrwurm]

So I sez to my friend, George Benson kind of rules.

[rickribz1]

i love x loves this track!!!!!!!!!!!

[PAUL53ify]

QUE MÚSICA BOA EU TINHA ESSE DISCO...

[houseelmejor]

Cuando la música era eso..Música. Vaya época!!

[FiremanBahb]

This was me and my girls song back in the day...we were definitely in love...or so I thought....perhaps it wasn't true love on her part because she left me for this rich dude that was married!!! ;0) ha!! anyway....even though the relationship is a recurring nightmare....nothing can tarnish the greatness of this tune...I've seen George twice in concert and it was a real treat...;0) ha!! too many hits!!!

[russkovitch]

@FiremanBahb Mate, ya better off without her!!!!!! And yeah, he is great live!!!! Keep on keepin on guvnor!!!!

[Hellfire5500]

good song of the 80's !!

[master82565]

[VictorSenna53]

[hanknell]

That backup singer was Patty Austin. Haunting voice huh?

[EduardoIsecson]

@glrep, eres lo máximo Goerge, que tal interpretación digna de los mejores (MJ)

[venusianrealm]

@thly21 i WAS 15 when this came out ...you have great taste in music

[chessman60619]

One of the things help make this song great are the background vocals of Patti Austin!!!!

[kareemtiheed]

Travelin with a cassette and life was easy....ahh the good ole' dayz

[thly21]

I'm 15 years old and I love this song, too bad I wasn't born at that time =/

[EduardoIsecson]

[romilfra]

LEMBRANÇAS ,SAUDADES ADORO ESTA CANÇÃO!!!!!!

[amd77j]

I used to play this jam incessantly. Just perfect vocals and music. George Benson is the best!!!

[mikeat48]

This brings back memories of Oldchurch Hospital and its social club,Romford; a place not to be sick in but as a young male student nurse,the best place to be on planet earth in 1979!!

[us4hot]

I use to be in love with this man when I was a teenager.

[us4hot]

I use tobe in love with this man when I was a teenager.

"two high hearts that beat as one" Sweet, sweet memories from this album. me and Babe use to wear this out

[OldShad87]

How many versions are there of this song? The horn section and bass line make this song sound amazing. Great Production. Love this track.

[jamica326]

smooth joint!

[tubingbass]

REAL MUSIC HERE

[fellovergen]

My sister passed in October and her partner chose this as her send off, My dad intro'd us to George so it was a double whammy. Promised myself I wasn't going to cry........ pah! that went out the window before the vocals started. Thanks for the music Mr Benson and my thoughts will always be with my Father and Sister whenever I hear this track

[nomoreliblabcon]

Love this, Pure class. Reminds me of Friday nights during the 80's in Macy's Bar, Bigg Market, Newcastle, UK. The Bar is still there, but sadly the music played is crap.

[UncleDarmish]

@nomoreliblabcon yeah I was the dj who played and more class tunes

[nomoreliblabcon]

@UncleDarmish Had you been old enough to be more than a twinkle in your mum's eyes at the time, I may have believed you.

@cleandiaper YEAH WRITTEN AND ARRANGED

[micljnes]

Lyrics, lead vocals, and harmonies to live for, it's greatness is in that people don't do it anymore as I think that would kill much of the magic in the music of this era. Supa post. Peace

[TheCastledavid]

[BenDoubleM]

[campbelpe]

Remember when a dime bag of weed was so big, so green, and so, so good! Those were the good ole days.  And no matter how much money you made, you always had enough money to have a good time. I can remember having a house party listening to this great song and having the munchies and eatting everything in the house including bologna, cheese, and hoagie sandwiches, and partying till the early morning dawn. Thank goodness for the good ole days. I am still holding on to those days.

[Sal1675]

@campbelpe How fat are you now then? Munchies were good lol 

[TheShalaine13]

[Kevierae]

1980, Hearing this on KBLX Berkeley, 102.9, the Quiet Storm. Driving (gliding) across the Bay Bridge back to the East Bay after a night of dancing in the City (San Francisco) Sigh!

[LBJTV]

@Kevierae sigh indeed!

I'm only 15..so you can imagine how much i envy that experience..

[anw510]

@Kevierae Those were the good old days! That's when KBLX used to play good music like this :)

[BF6ct]

Good post.

[TheWatha13]

One of my favorite songs!

[theinelma]

RECORDAÇÕES DA MINHA ADOLESCÊNCIA, ESSA MÚSICA É SHOW DE BOLA!!!

[92colibri]

FEELING GOOD!!!!!!LOVE++++++

[smakel190]

Was this produced by Quincy Jones? It has that Q flavor

[harrise007]

@smakel190 Yes this was "THE DUDE" Great job of producing on this one! Great job Quincy!!!

[Timario007]

@smakel190 yup

[Sal1675]

@smakel190 Q did this album as Benson wanted what Q did for MJ. The tune is Rod Temperton one as was rock with you. Same groove

[MrKodeman]

I dont think George was ever recognized as to how talented and good he is, especially a lot of his backup jobs he did.

[Thaclassy]

The rod temperton song!!!

[D9PSG]

pyah !

[callmeGSP]

meann drinkupp song!!!!

[austonosfus]

childhood memories....has anyone developed a hottub time machine yet?

[doyouwannarollwithme]

I've always liked this song. 

[letmein1541]

@2009Denisem I hear you girl

[tagalja]

GOOD MEMORIES ON IBIZA, THANKSS

[DrApocalypse]

Back when songs had a soul-- and songwriters knew how to write hooks-- and this song has a fantastic bridge that comes out of nowhere at 2:45-- those days are gone, my friends.

[wurltee31]

@DrApocalypse Preach on brotha!

[zeenan123]

Remember the album was produced by Quincy Jones...John JR Robinson on drums and Brazilian born percussionist Paulihno da Costa adds romantic flavor. Beautiful alto Patti Austin makes this great composition by Rod Temperton come alive!

[LenMan619]

@zeenan123 It's always nice to come across people on YouTube that REALLY know what they're talking about, cheers to you! Just about every name you've quoted here also had direct hands in Michael Jackson's record-breaking solo career, too.

[BabyChoun971]

Je suis nul en anglais mais fut un temps ou je connaissait les paroles par coeur de cette chanson. Bon je ne faisais que répéter et lisais bêtement les paroles sur la pochette du cd, j'étais enfant. Je ressentais un truc et maintenant que je la réécoute c'est la même. Je faisais la même avec Moody's Mood en me prenant pour la fille. I LOVE IT.

[utopiansoul61]

Big love from a BIg Soul!!

[bboohhmmaann]

I love the background singers too you can hear patti austin but I wish luther vandross would've been in the background cause has a similar style.

[dholmes974]

I bought this big Pioneer boom box and this tap with my paycheck when I left basic training! I'd have this blasting when I was buffing those floors at tech school...

[remiem6070]

@TheAteeyah George is STILL mad sexy.....

[letmein1541]

@remiem6070 Amen

[darradjir]

For a spiritual being with a good ear for music , it was like a call from heaven. The gods new that humans needed that break , a good holiday for a sound , steady, funky , danceable , but yet peaceful.- (D.J. Swa-ga Lee)!!

[MarkyCool67]

This song has been writen by the great Rod Temperton who also wrote Give Me the Night from the same album. He also wrote a lot of Michael Jacksons songs: Rock with You, Off the Wall, Burn This Disco Out, Baby Be Mine, The Lady In My Life, Thriller, Someone In The Dark, Hot Street, and the list goes on.

[MrDefJay]

AAAaaaahhh fantastic how this song calms you down

[GRAHAM5020]

@2009Denisem This is smashing track this.......and your right i do love this. Wonderful post.

[lana1350]

I'm the biggest George Benson fan, I loved him, I love him as a child and I love his music till this day. He has the most soothing voice ever and one of the best guitarist and musician ever. He has some many songs that I love that I cant pick just one. This happens to be one of my favorite along with "Give me the Night" and " Inside Love" and many others.
