Put the weight on my shoulder - Gino Vannelli

Gino Vannelli is one of my favorite singers ever. This talented Canadian is truly unique. I love this song- it is so beautiful and Gino puts so much emotion and passion in his performance.
Here the lyrics so you can all sing along.

Put the weight on my shoulders
Take the load off of your mind
Cause the headwinds that blow
Will fade away in time

Rest yourself on my waters
Take the lifeline from me
Rise above what has passed
And let yourself be free
I only know what love must bear
Through laiden times I will be there
And when your down I'll break the fall
Loose the weight on my shoulders
It aint no weight at all

I only know what love must do
When fortune cries I'll follow you
And when your down I'll break your fall
Put the weight on my shoulders
It aint no weight at all

Put the weight on my shoulders
See you star how it shines
Cause they're so many dreams
Left to find

Put the weight on my shoulders .....

This is the type of music that will never ever be written, composed, and performed by one person again. Gino Vannelli is an artisan. His lyrics can only be delivered by his voice.

I agree completely. Gino is one of a kind. genius pure.

Excelente tema !! Gracias por compartirlo, te mando un gran saludo desde Argentina - Buenos Aires !!!

Que gusto me da saludarte. en la bella y lejana Argentina! Si deseas checar las demas canciones de Gino que subi a mi canal....bienvenido/a.

One of the few voices in pop rock music that can carry an entire string section along with his delivery. All the karaoke poseurs on American Idol should study the man's approach.

[greeneyesmexico]

That is very well said.

A most powerful song. Perhaps should be a part of the Christian reportoire. Listen to the lyrics. It's purely Christ-like. Gino is certainly NOT Christ, but I would be surprised if this is not a Christ-inspired tune. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR GINO'S RESPONSE TO THIS ASSERTION.

I loved Gino especially this song. It carried me through some very difficult times and reminded me where I needed to place my loads and my faith. I just played it again after about 10 years. Thanks Gino

I agree with you all!!! Gino Vanelli is a talent I don't think will ever come again. His voice and his passion doesn't even need background music. I've loved his music for almost 30 years now, but I'm just now really beginning to appreciate this man's rare talent as there is so much crappy music out there nowadays. He's truly the top of the list of Canadian talent. I hope he reads the comments posted to his songs. He has to know how much we love and appreciate his music.

This is a great love song when someone comes into your life and let you know that they are there for you. Bravo Gino bravo

[EPhantomify]

Excellent choice of words!!! I agree MRFREAKYFRUIT!!! Gino is One of A Kind. So, glad he is here in my life time. Another great track. Thanks for posting.

@MRFREAKYFRUIT And also a wondeful thing is that he worked with his brother Joe arrenger and composer too,so what a great family to have!!!

[tkljung]

now days i hear people talking more about stealing enegys, this song makes my feel positive, when did you hear one say: put the weight on my shoulder. This song makes me strong.

[Flap999]

God, hard to find musicians with the kind of vocal/musical power and impact this man has. A true phenomenon. He truly is a global talent.
