Wow – in a class by himself – what a talent, what a gentleman

Just look at Smokey's face at 5:53 on this video and his look says it all, the look of a very proud "father" watching one of his babies bloom. Luther did so much justice to this song that it was as good to listen to as the original, I'm gonna miss hearing new recordings from this brother, but I have all the Luther classics so he'll sing on these days.....sing on brother, sing on

Thanks for posting this. I smile and felt warm just hearing Luther sing so beautifully. I know he is in heaven singing up something. May he be received into the kingdom.

@dyonne0216 He was a yo-yo dieter and over time the elastic in your skin doesn't bounce back. He had lost and gained over 100 pounds up to 6 times and was older. No matter skinny or not the voice was still FIRE!

this was beyond beautiful but i never expect anything less from Mr. Vandross.
that note at 5:21 was just surreal
thanks 4 the post
I still don't feel Luther Vandross got the respect he deserved this man was one of a kind. One of the best male vocalists of all time!!!!

Luther was one of the best vocalsist/performers that ever lived, whose unique vocal style still remains unparalleled. Smokey's one of the all-time great songwriters of popular music. so, it was a real treat to see Luther singing the songs of one of his heroes. and, the masterful rendition he did of Smokey's signature song "Ooh, Baby, Baby" was magnificent... bringing to it a grace and style equal to, if not better than the original.
man, i truly miss that brother. God bless you, Luther!!!
