  • @isue411 All I saw was a fantastic performance by a fantastic performer. David had his personal problems but when he got on stage it was magic. I really didn't notice anything......actually I thought it was for emotional effect. He always seemed to connect deeply with his songs. Anyway this year marks 20 years since his passing. Let us alway remember the great musical legacy he left behind and forgive his human frailty. Peace.

    You may be ten years old buddy, but your way ahead of many young folks listening and appreciating artist like Dave Ruffin and the many others of his league back in the day.

  • "Aint nobody comin to see you otis"! LMAO.

  • One of the Greatest Performers of all time, and when you talk about Soul Singing - David Ruffin is the Man!!!!

  • wow i love this version. this dude can sing. i found another guy that can sing it also with soul!

    hi name is rocky standridge, check it out. you gotta ove you tube without this we would never know a lot of the great singers.

  • We humans don't expect anything to work when it's broken but a man.....a broken leg, a broken chair; etc. We expect 100% out of broken human beings. David had problems but I don't judge him. He had an abusive father, lost a sister at a young age and grew up in Mississippi in the 40's. Had to be hard on a brother. Show business is a hard place to make it without God. It eats up approximately 80% of it's victims. You only need to look at Michael, Marvin, Elvis, etc to see.

  • @MickensJohn awww man. the guy who played david did a good job.. remember when he said "aint no body coming to see you otis" ..lol

  • They shouldve gotten Rickey Smiley to play him in the movie Thats who he looks Like

  • One of my favorite all time voices. Unmatched and effordless in his performances!!!
