This song is called Endless Love originally by Lionel Ritchie and Dianna Ross. It is being sung in the Luther Vandross slash Mariah Carrey version.
Well, I dont have a sexy black man voice being Asian and all, but I did try my best roflmao.

Lyrics:
My love,
There's only you in my life
The only thing that's right
My first love, (yeah)
You're every breath that I take
You're every step I make
And I
(And I-I-I)
I want to share
All my love with you
No one else will do...
(uuuuuh uuuh)
And your eyes
Your eyes, your eyes
They tell me how much you care
Ooh yes, you will always be
My endless love
Two hearts,
Two hearts that beat as one
Our lives have just begun
And Forever
(Forever)
I'll hold you close in my arms
I can't resist your charms
(no no no no noooo)
And love
and, love
I'll be a fool
For you,
(noney) I'm sure
You know I don't mind
Oh, you know I don't mind
'Cause baby you,
(baby baby baby baby)
You mean the world to me
Oh
I know
I've found in you
My endless love
yeee ee eeeee
Oooh-woow
do do do do do
do do do do do
do do doo doo
Oooh, and love
Oh, love
I'll be that fool
For you,
I'm sure
That You know I don't mind
Oh you know-
I don't mind
And, YES
You'll be the only one
'Cause no one no one can deny
This love I have inside
And I'll give it all to you
My love
My love, my love
My endless love
Oh yeah, could you also go over your approach to the lines "you know I don't mind" on how to get that low and high mixed effect of a lower octave loud resonance while getting that higher falsetto/head combo? Thanks.

Well, this song is pretty hard and I cant pull it off on a regular basis. This song uses all parts of the male voice, and all parts need to be warmed up and developed. This is defiantly not a song I can sing "on demand" unless ive had a good warmup.

Hey, could you comment on how you sang the part going into the chorus part? I always start in chest voice but when I move to mixed, I lose the notes or something weird happens. Could you highlight your approach? Thanks.

The most important thing about this song is that 90% of it is going to be in the "mixed voice". Transitioning into falsetto here is just going to be used as a tool for overall impact, but the only parts I sing in full falsetto here are the parts where im trying to blend in with Shelbys voice.

Which specific part are you talking about?
In regards to you other comment, ill try and explain it the best I can.
"Noooo ooOOO I dont mind and"
"Noooooo" is mixed
"ooo OO oooOO" is chest
"I" is transitioning
"dont" is mixed
"mind and" is full falsetto
I do full falsetto at the end to taper it off.
The best advice I can give you is practice the thing in ALL FALSETTO. Doing this is going to make the transition easier. Dont worry if the chest notes come out bad at first when doing this.
