  • The old me would like to beat Angela's a** for letting some Jheri Curled wearing punk man with a girl's name beat her!

    I'm not interested in understanding that kind of love.

  • @RavenlucJanie she was married to ron isley he did the beating

  • The song "You don't have to cry " is one of my favorite songs and well written. It sends a powerful message about emotional support and love!

  • Classic...good music...when u actually had to have a talent and not based on how u look

  • This song got me threw some tough times....one of my favorite and a classic!

  • The music matters don't let today slip into analysis...the music was and is powerful!

    We all have not been right to someone and forfeited our blessing. Yet this song made us know what we should have had in the hard times. Lets grow without the negativity in the wake of such a powerful love song.

  • Smile by Angela Winbush is my fav. song by her.

  • she looks good

  • HE LOOKED GAY!

  • @raven8877 Everyone did in the 80s - it was so much fun!

  • @raven8877 so much!

  • BE TRUE TO YOURSELF AND LOVE WILL FIND YOU. DON'T GIVE UP!!!!!!!!

  • ITS SOOOO CUTE WHEN HE HELPED HER UP AND BRUSHED THE SAND OFF HER KNEES :)

  • When I listen to Angela's voice and see her beauty, I could tell that she was singing this song with conviction and tremendous passion. When I look at Rene all I see and hear is a damn fool and it leaves me SMDH..

  • @DaddySweet100 after learning about how disgusting Rene was to Angela he can remain just a footnote in R&B history. Angela was the bigger talent in this duo an he knew it an couldn't handle it. She went on to bigger things an has proven herself. I will say though she should be a much bigger star because that voice of hers is outstanding.

  • @howardsturrup I agree with you. It's unfortunate that sometimes relationships that maybe romantic, personal or business don't survive because someone is insecure, immature, self centered or narrow minded. Relationships are a shared responsiblity and sometimes only 1 person can be featured or out front in the relationship. We've all heard of many talented groups/bands that implode when success, fame and money begins to roll in. It's sad & sometimes tragic when that happens. I'm an Angela fan.

  • @DaddySweet100 hahahahahaha!!! the Rene comment is what I was thinking!

  • think i had this on a 45 (record for those who only know about cd's) paid like 1.50 or something like that. those were the days. i would sing so loud on this song the neighbors were like who is that? lol im still waiting on my Boaz and know that God is bringing him soon. If you had a bad relationship then that was not your assignment.

  • DAMN ANGELA WINBUSH WAS FINE

  • @SWIFSTASHPRESENTS I tapped that ass back in the day at Howard U

  • @npgfunk so what does that make you a big guy and further more it must not have been good to her becuz you are not in the picture now and you werent in the picture then im a 30year old women so you must be in your 50s and shoild be ashamed of youself being a old ass man and broadcasting your business and hers like that you suck

  • @mslenay38 suck my dick, bitch. how about that?

  • They say everything is a refelection of the creator/s. Watching and listening to these two sparks of magnificent greatness makes one me, Freak the creator/s is truly beyond magnificent.

  • @ILLSLAPAHO

    Says the person with the user name illslapaho who the fuck do you think u r oh wait you must be a "internet gangster" huh you don't know him personally to be talking shit

    Like really how childish could you get its really sad and pathetic you need the attention

    But it's all good you just a low life who feels like they need to put people down and if you reply to this post your really sad

  • @Derickg73

    He is my cousin he did not committe suicide he is still alive

    I don't know who told you that but its false information

  • @Aaronc7775 If he is your cousin, then he is a sucker..he should commit suicide for being a jealous bitch and putting his hands on my Angie.. That sap sucker motherfucker...You tell him I said, FUCK HIM...Jealous bitch!!!!!!

  • I was -5 when this song came out lol...this is my JAM.

  • MY VERY FAVOR SONG OF ALLTIME

  • One of my fav r&b cuts!

  • What ever happened to Rene? I loved their songs.

  • @256saxman Rumor has it, he passed away. Heard he committed suicide.

  • off topic: does Vevo even use demographics software to figure out what commercial to play? I'm sitting up here watching rene & angela and i see a justin bieber commercial before the video plays...i scrolled down and read the comments til the vid came up 2 avoid seeing it. why not play at least a current r&b commercial for a video like this and play commercials like J bieber on newer similar pop videos.

  • i hear this and i wanna cry i just lost my lil brother 3months ago 26 years old set up by his best friend 4 years gramma school high school when they get grown an accomplish things he take his life cuz he no everything fuck friends keep your family close while there around rip puff that shit hurt

  • Classic!! This is what I consider music!!

  • the 5 who dislike this song must still be crying.

  • Good song!

  • The funny part is they couldn't stand eachother by the time this video was made

  • "There's someone here now who cares about your needs, we'll make it some how cause i'll share your dream. I'm jus here to fill u with some good love in bad times. I'm yours when u need me, keep me close, i'll keep you warm all the time..."

  • THIS SONG IS SOO BAD!!!

  • Wasn't that Jessica from "THe JEffersons", and "Wake, Rattle and ROll"? I wonder what she's doing now.

  • Is it just me or was Rene a cornball?

  • Wow.... @susejsullivan

  • 1:22 Lil Wayne with a jerry curl... HA!

  • I freakin love this song....still in 2011....How I wish I could have been a teenager in the 80s, talk about true love songs!!! 

  • Comment removed

  • Love the back to future effect in this video lol!!!!

  • I loved this Song!!!

  • dont cry

  • i like this song

  • he says i don't have to cry

    

  • I dedicate this song to the love of my life. Mr. Aaron James. I love you so much sweetheart.

  • I saw her and howard hewett perform a couple of years ago and they were wonderful....where did the great artists goo?? dang

  • the lil girl was Jennie and Lionel's daughter on the Jeffersons. I can't belive I remember her.

  • I still remember them at the Pittsburgh Regatta in either 1986 or 87!!!

  • THIS WAS ON A MANY OF MY MIXED SLOW JAMS TAPES

  • @0408084LIFE lol

  • @0408084LIFE

    lol

  • love this song.. even tho i was 8 years old when it came out 1986

  • DAM I AM A GOOD WOMEN AND I WISH GOD WILL BLESS ME WITH THE RIGHT MAN TO TREAT AND RESPECT ME .I WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU,BUT I EXPECT THE SAME FROM YOU.

  • @SADGIRL431 Where are you? I'm sure there are a few good men out there that could fit this description. Good women that don't beg, borrow, bum with a Million Man March kids, that believe the system show take of them are highly sort after. Stay strong in prayer, be prepared and who know's what God may have waiting for you. This song has always been inspirational to me. That's the kinda woman that a man would fall in love with. "A TRUE HELP MATE" not concerned about her hair or finger nail.

  • @SADGIRL431 .... Have faith, because what will be will be... I love this song, it takes me back to a time for me was better, but through things beyond my control , all good things come to an end . and just to have "that love" again for one day even would be amazing , until that day, .....we will keep searching.. =]

  • @SADGIRL431 HOLD OUT THERE IS A GOOD MAN ON PLANET EARTH

  • @SADGIRL431

    YOU'D BE SURPRISED AT THE NUMBER OF GOOD MEN WHO FEEL THE SAME WAY! GOD WILL BLESS YOU, YOUR MAN MAY BE CLOSER THAN YOU THINK!!

  • @SADGIRL431 I feel you there are alot of weak men out there expecting us to take care of them with next to nothing in return its ridiculous

  • @myblackistru damn i have been runing up all weak women were you at.

  • This song barely edges out "Your Smile" as my favorite song by Rene and Angela. I will never forget their "Street Named Desire" album - there were so many hits peeled from that album from '84 to '86: "Save Your Love (for #1), " I'll Be Good," "Your Smile," "You Don't Have To Cry," and "No How, No Way."

  • IT TAKE 2 STRONG PEOPLE 2 UNDERSTAND THA UPS AND DOWNS WHEN LOVE IS ON THA LINE GO FOR IT STAY IN YOUR LANE CAUSE ITS ALWAYS LIGHT AT THA END OF YOUR TUNNEL AND HOW I NO THIS CAUSE I WOKE UP THIS MORNIN WITH THA FEELIN SOMEBODY OUT THERE LOVE SOMEBODY BELIEVE DAAT OR BELIEVE A LIE

  • I luv dis music.. of course 4 ppl dislike they really dnt kno tru music

  • Sublime song - & Chante Moore & Kenny Lattimore's version is equally lovely.

  • great song this one brings back a lot of memories.

  • I love this song, it's so beautiful. That's the kind of love everybody wants.

  • @pinkpostergirl. That's why ignorant people need to stay off sites like this-no CDs back then, only pure talent, but you can't relate, lol. @Tanelo, don't comment to sites like this cuz you obviously don't get it either. I could say that Patti could outblow anyone who sings YOUR favorite song, but what's the point? Even if someone else remakes this song, would it change the memories of the original? No. Point made. Sweet memories and NO ONE can change that. Go Rene and Angela!

  • Tinya and Latocha Scott from Xscape sampled a verse from this song and added it to their song You dont have to cry. I didn't know that until now.

  • I'm 20 years old and why today's urban music can't be like during the golden years :(...wished I was during the good times. To the ones who have experienced during those years, be thankful and blessed you have survived the great period of acceptable music.

  • I LOVE YOU PONCHO RIP

  • They wrote the hell out of that song and sung the hell out of that song!!! They are powerful performers but Angela Winbush is truly one of the greatest vocalists of all time. She has true talent that can not be faked. Either you have it or you don't...

  • these guys responsible for some of the nicest soulful music ever..quality

  • There are 4 Rene fans

  • WHATS UP WITH INTERNET COMMERCIALS!!!!!!

  • 4 people need to get kicked in the mouth until they cry

  • Was in 3rd grade back in 1986 when i first heard this hearing this song then i always though of a cute girl who i was friends with in grade school she was a grade under me i had a big time schoolyard crush on her did i forget to mention she was white(i love my beautiful black sistas) but i had a thing for her i don't think she knew i had a crush on her or she might of known......

  • the jam !

  • Love this song..

    

  • This is wat u call baby making music when its raining outside!

  • This is what you call real music....people forgot what real music sounded like..........Sweet Fee

  • Real music, real lyrics, bless!

  • 4 idiots

  • Just freakin beautiful, this bring back all the good memories

  • Used to Love this song!! i didn tknow there was a video to this

  • Rene seems like a douche

  • I'd ask.." What ever happened to music like this", but we all know. the answer. It changes into what the "new" generation wants/likes. That's why we have these great dvd's and cd's. Can I get an AMEN! But what ever happened to these people? I can't find squat on the internet about the likes of them or Jeffrey Osborne, etc.

  • @MrTopgearguy1 Angela Winbush was featured on a recent episode of Unsung on TVOne. Rene declined to be part of the show.

  • Im so blessed to have been born in the mid 70's and to have witness this kind of soulful music. This song takes me back to Queens Village, NY growin up in the 80's. *tears*

  • love this song

    

  • pimpin 

  • pimpin

  • this song came out when i was just finding out who my identity was.....and learning how to grow up....and now as i take the time to look back on the good days it's just all so clear to me now and how proud of myself i was.....AS I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THE GOOD OLD TIMES.....word

  • fxck the 4 ppl that disliked!

  • @lilavery369 :They have absolutely NO taste in real music.

  • the very beginning of the song sound like Super Nintendo Donkey Country 1, during the under water levels

  • @pinkpostergirl David Wise <3

  • @pinkpostergirl Nice catch!!

  • This is a great song. I'm happy their group split though. He was very jealous and abusive towards her and they weren't even together. I just finished watching her on UNSUNG that comes on TVONE. Although they made some great songs they didn't belong together as a group with abuse going on.

  • @darkchild1983 I saw that same show. He was very jealous. It's something how her writing talents were challenged when they split and people really believed that he did most of the writing. She really showed everyone when she started doing her own thing.

  • Real R&B and not that new garbage

  • what 4 people dislike this song. they must dont know real music

  • Angela and Rene need to do some more hits together! They were FABULOUS!!!!!!

  • I love this style,I dont work,and all day smoke weed and listen this kind of music and live with my memories already many years..

  • Man on man!  Good music!

  • This song is sooooo hot! Music like this is TRULY missed nowadays!

  • Ey yall imma bring dis song back wit a R&B Southern type swag. Same chords and all even the change up towards the end wit some electric guitar. Trust me people if you wanna listen to my music you can google me im on soundclick and think to yourself how I would flip this song.

  • Angela gained so much weight.

  • @MrThisworldismines Angela HAS SURVIVED CANCER!!! SHE CAN GAIN AS MUCH WEIGHT AS SHE WANTS... SHE IS ALIVE!!! YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF FOR SUCH A RIDICULOUS, UNRELATED COMMENT... WHAT A JERK!

  • @MsNJLove go find your daddy you ghetto black bastard

  • @MrThisworldismines Apparently, YO MOMMA Is the Ghetto Black Bastard and that is why she had no other choice but to have your ignorant azzzzz.... You need some education and CLASS in your life.... Ooops, sorry you wont understand what "CLASS" means because you were born with HATRED in YOUR Heart! Ya BUM... You are such a NON MFing Factor in Life and if you respond... Point proven....

    Get some HELP...

  • Does anyone know who are that little girl and boy? I wonder what they represent in this video?? It is really cute to see the boy dry the tears of the girl. If anyone knows, please let me know what you think! Angela Winbush is some kind of singer!

  • @MrORIGINS1 the little girl is ebonie smith she played lionel & jennie daughter on the jefferson's (jessica jefferson) unsure of the lil boy...

  • I love this song this is my mother and I song that we sing around the house

    I miss them I know they are nolonger a team I wish they would do a reunion of

    some sort just to remind us how good they both really was.

  • This Song and Group was the Highlight of Many Lives: From Angel by Angela Winbush to You dont Have To Cry. This is God's Gift of Encouragement for Ladies that have been Hurt and Men Who have been hurt, by parents, circumstances and the more: It brought Sunshine and I dont think I run into anyone who is of the Affluence who does not know it. Shalom! Where Ever You Are Thank You for This Contribution.

  • Tell those abusers in a loud firm voice..."Quit your pimpin!!!"

    That'll straighten them out!

  • Y do good things come to an end? Man i miss this music so dearly! (:

  • oldie but goodie

  • It was the eighties and they both were using drugs

  • The Era of pure Black music&videos.

  • im 38 yrs old and i miss this music there wont ever be anything like it this takes me back to a time when things were simpler and music meant something all this shit now is so lousy soul and r&b rap just all of it im so sad for what music has now become

  • @DaniLyn36 You are so right; I totally agree with you! We will NEVER have great music like this again in the artists of today! I wish some of the artists that are out now would pack up and go an unknown island, because I don't care to hear them, and bring back the "true artists" like Rene and Angela and other great ones!!

  • ok this goes to my girl Yavis

  • @1175badboy Thanks babe. I like it alot. Your the best honey!

  • here we go girl 

  • yo Yavis feel this 

  • I love this song,bring back so many GOOD memories!

  • I want to dedicate this to that one lucky woman one day!! Because I will never do her wrong or make her cry, put my life on it!!

  • @jrjones0327 ....where have u been all my life?????

  • Im P.O cause they won't let the video play on my dam phone, why have it on here if it ca

  • classic

  • Rene Moore & Angela Winbush, one of the legendary and most successful romantically linked writing duos in black music of our time. You don't have to Cry is one of the swan songs of 2 great artists ending their journey together. This is one of the masterpieces from Street Called Desire, which, to this day, still holds as the ONLY project with the most singles on one album EVER. Rene & Angela dated briefly but abuse regarding writing (among other things) always played a part in the shadows.

  • Comment removed

  • That's when the music was real

  • He he he git'em ILLSLAPAHO...I'm a fool for Angela's voice by the way and even though he's a hela jerk they did sound together. Obviously she didn't need him though-smile.

  • Love this song. Always bring a tear to my eye. I miss the 1980s....

  • Leaned over and kissed me, which made me smile and shake my head, and dump the clutch and leave that 5.0L Mustang in the rearview lmao, as we proceeded to our destination haha!, with this song and songs like this playin' on the Alpine!, let me stop lmao...

  • This is real music right here!, what I was listening to when I was a kid back in the 80's, and when I used to hear this song, and songs like this, and watch the video on BET, I used to fantasize about growing up, being a young man, couldn't wait to start dating, and romance the girls to music like this, but really listening to the message in the song, 16 years old in the T-top IROC Z-28 Camaro with ya girl in the front seat, really committed to each other, she looked me in my eyes...

  • one of my favorite classics

  • Here's this VEVO CRAP AGAIN!!!!!

  • My good friend just sent this song to me and I will cherish this song forever because I love him in a very special way!!!!!!!! I think he knows that to!!!!!!!!!! I know we cant be together but Im crazy about you!!!!!!!!!RG ATOU!!

  • I never knew Claire Huxtable could actually sing!

  • @MrPyroguru That's funny! Now when I see Angela, I'll think of The Cosby Show!
