The truly music Black! Filho from Brazil!
I’ve seen him in concert several times and he never disappoints.👍🏽
Although I loved Prince in the 80's and 90's, I loved Terence Trent D'Arby more, and this song is one of my all-time favourites. What a journey of emotion.
Nooo, there’s no similarity to Michael Jackson or prince. Darby is on a much higher plane vocally. But they do represent kind of a holy trinity of music: Terence for vocals and pure soulfulness, Michael for dancing and showmanship, and prince for songwriting and musicianship.
Agree. He’s like Otis Redding and Sam Cooke. I saw Otis- boy do I see similarities.
Lembrando muito a voz do Rod Stuart.
You guys haven't done your homework. He didn't just disappear for no reason. He was understanding a federal protection program because of some mafia business. His life was in serious danger. Too much talent there to just walk away from it my friends. There had to be more and much more@
One of the most talented vocalists of all time. Up there with the greats - Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Prince, Michael Jackson etc. Was shunned by the industry. Listen to the full concert in London, amazing.
Hi there. Loved both your reactions. Haha, I'm the Guitarist in red whose solo you interrupted. Thanks dad for pointing out proper etiquette to the younger generation. I had the Sincere Honor of recording & touring with TTD from '92 to '02. He was a Wonderful Friend & even a Better Boss. He writes his own songs, plays dozens of instruments, has the agility of a cat and a threat to many so called "Artists" because of his Amazing Talents. MJ was nowhere near all the Vocal, Writing & Musicianship skills that TTD has shared with the World. I'd say that even if we hadn't been such great friends. No "Yes Men" needed, just "Raw Talent". BTW, That venue in London is where The Dixie Chicks got "Blacklisted" criticizing Pres. Bush. I hope you might have enjoyed some of the other artists I recorded for like the 4 Non Blondes CD & hit "What's Up" with 1.1 Billion views on YT (I'm not in the video, just audio). Macy Gray "I Try", Belinda Carlisle, Hilary Duff, Darlene Love, New Edition, Taylor Dane, Bobby Brown and many more. Thank you for reviewing this Spellbinding show. We did 2 nights there. I, along with the audience, would cry at some of our shows because they were just that emotional. Music Is Medicine. Take Good Care Guys - Louis Metoyer
Wow.. Thank you for sharing all of that with us! You are a very gifted guitarist. When you started playing, I went damn... who´s that?? You set the right tone for what was gonna come. Much respect for you and your artistry 🙌 Stay blessed and keep on playing
@@gabrielamatteo665 Thank You for your Kind Words. Music is Medicine 🎶🙏❤

@Michael Gant Thank You Brother for feeling the music I performed on :-) We had a Great time working together pushing the musical boundaries of melodies against chords. 2 songs of mine you may enjoy are on youtube also under my name, at The Whiskey A GoGo. Thank You for asking Michael. Take Good Care 🙂

Hi, Louis. I am just curious. Have you written your life story?
Mr.Sananda Maitreya was so underrated and under appreciated. He did that. GENIOUS! PERIOD!!!
Yup
Ex boxer and soldier.He is a real artist and a Genius. Now known as Sananda Maitreya. in his albums plays all instruments and all songs are written, produced, arranged, performed and conceived by him. He has 12 albums and 8 are produced by his own label, Treehouse publishing. Pls check one of this old songs. Let her down easy, Delicate, Who's loving you (cover), Sign your name,Dance little sister, A change is gonna come (cover), Vibrator, Undeniably, If you go before me, do you love me like you say,to know someone deeply, it's been said.😊❤️. Thanks. Kisses. A true fan here.
He's my cousin. When we were younger I showed him one of his signature dance moves. He kept asking me to keep doing it. At the time he was a boxer in Florida. Who knew that he was going to use that for his musical career. Wishing Well is good, but my his whole debut album is fire. My favorite song by my cuz is Seven more days. If you haven't heard it you should check it out.
We will be checking song out soon. Tell your cousin we said , hey!
Your cousin is a musical KING! Genius! Artist SUPREME!
Yeah course he is
We are in 2023, I'm listening to his music, he is the whole package. America has nissed out big time ... best voice ever.
I was listening to your cousin's music back then and I still do today, he is so talented, the best vocalist of all times and his songs, moves and presence are unmatched until today, I seriously think celebrities were jealous of him!! I follow him on Facebook, please tell your cousin that he is an outstanding artist who has a kind and pure soul and that he remains one of the best of all times for us and vocally he is simply the best of all ❤️🙏
He doesn’t sound like Michael Jackson’s, Prince, he sounds like himself no one can sing like him, yes he’s a true artist, who didn’t get the breaks he needed
He wasn't a one hit wonder. Sign Your Name and Dance Little Sister were also top 40 hits for him. If You Let Me Stay only reached #68, but I remember seeing it played a lot on MTV and hearing it on the radio a lot. I'm hazy as to why he later on became hated here in the States. I remember he was portrayed as arrogant and he may have called out America as being racist, but back then we only got our sources through print and network media. So it was very confusing as to what happened to him, with the narrative only coming from one side.
I remember hearing that he felt his album was better than the Beatles and that rubbed some radio people the wrong way… that’s when I found out talking trash about the Beatles was a big no no even though I never heard their songs in radio rotation 🤷🏽♂️
This is my favorite love song of all time. Whew, those lyrics are amazing. Great songwriting.
Mine also, a lyrical masterpiece 👌🏾
So glad to see you react to Terrence Trent D'Arby aka Sananda Meitraya. I listen to him on a daily basis, and "Holding on to you" is by far my favorite. Thanks for making this aunties day. Epic performance 🎭
I watch/listen to this each evening, sort of a soulful psalm..
He is the son of a preacher man ..that's wat his dad taught him..
He had a melt down an that's his come back ..new hair style too..Google him hes amazing...ex golden gloves boxer...same platoon as elvis..different time obviously..hes pure talent.
Michael had nothing on Terrence! He is still the genuine article! And it's James Brown whom you see in TTD. Not Michael.
James Brown, I mean, how can you hear Dance Little Sister & Not think of J.B.. Also Al Green & Jackie Wilson. Stevie Wonder is a fan of Sanandas' music, & Let Her Down Easy hints at that influence, as well
This song is perfect blend of poetry and music, It's the song that is closest to my heart, it resonates in my life, Sananda is a special individual, they are not born often, a true muse.
Yup
I loved your reaction. I think his comparison to Michael and Prince is partially due to them all being deeply influenced by James Brown! Terence Trent D”Arby (aka Sananda Francesco Maitreya) is one of the most underrated artists of our time! He voice is like no other and his songwriting is like art! The imagery is so strong and thought provoking! It’s really deep, too deep for most! He is one amazingly soulful musician! I loved how she caught how much his dad meant to him! He speaks about his dad in his songs Never Turn My Back On You and As Yet Untitled both from his debut album, Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent D’Arby! He was labeled difficult because he believed is the purity of his music and fought for that! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
He also had chart topping hits in the US with Sign Your Name and Dance Little Sister and a song called Delicate which was a duet with Desiree!! He had other songs that did not crack the top ten like, If you Let Me Stay, so he was far from a one hit wonder! ❤️❤️
His artistry is up there with Michael and Prince. I posted this in the middle of the video, and you backed me up near the end.
Yes. He is top tier. I think the industry had an agenda against him.
@@TheAdventuresofTNT Yup, the very moment Sony (Michael Jackson's label at the time) swallowed up Columbia (TTD/Sananda's label back then), it was O-V-E-R for that brotha. No way was he gonna get the same breaks or even respect that both his new labelmate and "His Royal Badness" ended up getting prior. And as you said, he finally had enough of the BS and left America behind for the much more welcoming arms of Europe soon as his "poison pill" contract with Sony was up in the mid-'90s. Been there ever since, still cranking out high-quality music at a prolific level too! Best career move he ever made, looking back. Had he stayed here still trying to break through, probably would've ended up dead just like his two main influences. I'm just glad I managed to get all of his official studio releases on CD when he was still known by his original name before they finally went OOP because my collection would've been quite empty without 'em (lol)! Truly the last great solo artist America has produced during the last century, what a damn shame...
>:-)
Man, am I glad I didn't skip this video. I passed it up a couple of times today but since I liked Wishing Well so much I figured I'd give it a listen. I haven't heard a "new" old song that I like so much in years. Thanks to you and your viewer that recommended it. That'll teach me to never skip a TNT reaction again! Great job, you two! BTW, I got more Prince vibes from him than MJ.
Yes, I was feeln the Prince vibes.
Listen to the whole Vibrator Album of his, it is amazing I promise you’ll love almost EVERY SONG on it.
Go find his song "Seven more days" that's my favorite by him. He's my older cousin.
Amyfrench, I love your comment.
This whole concert is bad ass. The piano sit down, holy shit.
Have seen it, more than once. Love the acoustic version of Sign Your Name
Holy shit yes
Very talented man Terrence Trent Darby.
He goes by Sinanda Matraiya now
Whoa! You've made my day with this reaction; another reactor to whom I'm subbed did this at my request recently (mr video). I just want to tell you what a wonderfully insightful reaction this is, love the back & forth between you two. This is not the same song as on the album, he's riffing here for the live performance, and what a performance it is. Todays' "singers" care not one whit about audience satisfaction, whereas Sananda embraced a more European approach that says give it all you've got, leave it on the stage, & bow to the audience in appreciation for their patronage.
Did I say I love this song 🤔....I listen to it every night, like a soulful lullaby. That's this song: Rock & Soul. Thank you ✌
*subbed upon listening
I must disagree with your comment only because, it seems you may be conflating the music industry with real musicians and those anointed with a calling to sh as re their musical gifts. This man had God given talent but developed his style in the Black American church reminiscent of James Brown, who Michael Jackson, and Price who were greatly influenced by in their styles. These artists laying their souls bare on the stage is from our West African approach to art the European picks apart and most cannot understand is to be felt and aspirational. It is meant to be an expression of our higher selves, but has been bastardized through greed and capitalism. Europe once ruled by Africans long ago, and at one time truly admired the and studied the culture to implement in theirs. There is still some of that admiration for the great African oratory tradition and expression in our arts. As Britain is still holding Benin’s art hostage.
This song is one of my favorite songs ever. His voice is unmatched IMO. Vibrator is a FANTASTIC ALBUM!
The whole concert is great but you also need to listen to "Let her down Easy. He also does an awesome version of Smokey Robinsons of "Who's Loving You."
Let her down easy is soooooooo beautiful
Beautiful ballad. Love it too.
He wrote and produced his own music, could play 20 different instruments but he was judged because he was around the same time as MJ and Prince, that's why he gave up for a while and changed his name to Sanada Maitreya.
I hate his career didn't go further popularity wise, but he seemed to do things on his terms and kept making wonderful music so that's good too
I just love TTD, was lucky enough to see him in the 90s, outstanding live.
I saw him on this tour in a small club in Portland and it was the best thing I’ve ever seen in my life.
@TheColdrush22....🤔 Where've I seen you before? Oh yeah, on Teez channel. What song was that you requested? 😂 Kidding aside, I really like the reaction from these two.
He was mad underrated. Never got the shine he should have
I saw Terrence live in concert in 1987 and i can truly say it was ABSOLUTLY AMAZING, such a powerful voice !! This song is GREAT... Have you thought of doing a reaction to Robbie Williams singing the song - Feel - Live at Knebworth it will blow your minds...
Great reaction guys
There is nothing close to Micheal Jackson in this mans music. For years he has stood on his own. Jackson, Prince, and Terence all had their own style of singing, music. Terence left the US because he wanted to be himself and control of his own music and life.
Absolutely. Everybody wants to impress their favorite artist on someone that they don’t know. It drives me crazy.
Genius. Terrence is a genius. Unparalled talent.
As a full on metal head this is one of my all time fave songs. This whole record (vibrator) is one of those rare 10/10 albums. Songwriting performance and production. So happy to see real music like this get a shout out. What a voice!!!
Very emotional performer, feels every word... luv!
Michael Jackson?? 😳 you lost me there immediately… he’s on the side of Prince, a little Marvin… so much better than Michael Jackson! And yes, sir, pausing in the middle of a solo is a NO NO
He was the man… dumbfounded how he never became a megastar
he originally wrote it for Rod Stewart but finally took it
I saw him on this tour, and I shall never forget it.
I've ALWAYS been and am his biggest fan EVER and know every song of his word for word. I bloody miss him
PLEASE WHATCH HIM SING " IF I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU" On this one he is of age- giving a one man show with just his piano... and that song, the way he sang was AWESOME!!! I literally could not stop listening to it!!!!!
Terence Trent Darby is a bad man !!! One of the most underrated Artist in the 80's & 90's. Vocally he always reminded me of the Late Great Sam Cooke. Since then hes legally changed his name to (Sananda Maitreya), resides in Milan, Italy & still making music til this day !!!!
Thank you so much for doing the suggestion. One of my favorite performances ever. But if you change the spelling to “Terence” and “D’Arby” you will probably get more hits. Thanks again, man. I appreciate it.
He now goes by the name Sananda Maitreya and lives in Milan, Italy.
Really enjoyed your commentary. I love this song and this performance of it! Even though Terence Trent D’Arby is originally American, he was always marketed as a British ( International crossover ) artist ever since his debut album in the 80s, which included Wishing Well. He never disappeared. He’s been making music consistently since then. At one point he started recording under the name Sanada Maitraya, songs like What Shall I Do. You can hear more of his music on streaming platforms under both names.
He is a vocal beast
This is and amazing song by TTD , I've been listening to it for ten years now , and I've been following his career sense he moved to Italy . He left shortly after he lost the new artist to Jody Whaley . He was ripped off
Hi. I enjoyed your reaction to Terrence Trent D'arby. He has changed his name to Sananda Maitreya, he does it all. He not only sings & dances, he's a musician who plays many instruments. Look at his full concert which is this same concert he sings the song that you reacted to. You'll see him playing & singing. I think you're going to love the full concert. Also check out Children of the Revolution with Terrence Trent D'arby & Andrew Roachford. That video is before he changed his name & this artist does not play that lip synching & auto tune crap. He gives great performances. Better than these artists today. ☺ To get that full concert type Terrence Trent D'arby live in London. Also he has a fun music video you should check out. You have to type Sananda Maitreya that's his new name. The song is called Bella Faccina, I think he's singing in Italian in this video as well as in English.
I am so pleased to see that you selected this video. I only discovered it a few days ago, in January 2023, and even though it is generally not the genre of music I prefer to listen to, I was absolutely so blown away by this performance that it made me a brand-new fan -- of Sananda Maitreya, and not just of Terence Trent D'Arby. And I have to say that when I see him perform this song, I think about Prince and other great rockers. I don't think about Michael.
It’s 2022 I’m a 70 yr old and this voice is phenomenal!!! I’m mesmerized!! Awesome!!!
How is she looking so nonchalant? This song brings emotions! Don't worry bro I checked it, she has alexithymia
I really feel she was just thinking “he’s a Michael Jackson rip-off” the whole time. I could be wrong. But if I’m right, she’s wrong. She just seemed skeptical the whole time, but amen. I get it. Much love to both of them man and love that they did this. Michael Jackson got that “ha” from James Brown too. They were both influenced by James Brown. And I actually absolutely love her (“I was going to pause it but I don’t have control over anything” made me laugh. Good point.).
Thank-you for reacting!
Your channel is awesome and much appreciated
This is a lyrical masterpiece, 💯💯
One of the most talented but changed his name...and don't know where he went. Started hearing him from the 80's.
Check out, from TTD: O Divina, Let Her Down Easy, If You Let Me Stay, Wonderful World (wonderful cover of Sam Cookes' song), As Yet Untitled (live concert for Nelson Mandela, sung a cappella)
*Check out his website to discover a disarming intellect with a sense of humor. Example: "I didn't say that your mother is fat. I said that her girdle doubles as a car cover for the family SUV" 😁
Peace ✌
I love to see you on every reaction of this performance. Keep on.
It's funny, because it's not the usual modus operandi for me to view something over & over. Guess we all have that one thing that touches us in the space marked: No trespassing. Sananda breached the barrier. And I welcome it.
After his successful debut he released an experimental, sort of psychedelic soul album (Neither Fish Nor Flesh) that alienated many of his fans (although I really liked it). He continued putting out great music throughout the 90s. His Symphony or Damn and Vibrator (which contains this song) albums are both excellent.
He lives in Italy now and has changed his name to Sananda Metreya and continues to record and perform.
Neither Fish Nor Flesh - A Soundtrack of Love, Faith, Hope & Destruction is one of the best albums ever. I love it so much. I’m with you dude.
This is a reminder of what R&B singers are supposed to sound like. Todays R&B singers are garbage.
Thanks for your reaction from one of America's stellar vocalist. S o maybe you don't know. Back in 1987 he came out with the The Hardline According to Terence Trent D'arby in the UK. then it hit in America. That album featured the hit single Wishing Well plus others. The media tried to compared him and Michael and Prince. Terence comes from the Church his Moms was a Gospel singer. It's important to understand that he did have the machine behind him. His second album was considered a flop. But, this album is his 4th album where this song you reacted too was on it. He changed his name and now lives in Italy. So as an American you can live somewhere else in the world. One of the best vocalist in the world. He was inspired by Sam Cooke and Otis Redding. That's the feel you hear.
Enjoyed this conversation. Yeah Terrence now AKA Sanaida ? Swallowed a GOB of sandpaper LOL which resulted in him becomming my favorite Male Voice in the World specifically on this song. 👍🏻
His influence is not Micheal his influence with Stevie Wonder and James Brown. That’s why you hear him making those sounds that’s what James Brown used to do. Michael Jackson got that from James Brown.
Bro this guy has many hits and still blowing up
What an emotional rollercoaster
So glad to see people reacting to this video. Been watching it for years. Amazing is all I can say👍
Yep. Same here..
Thank you so much for covering this song! It’s one of my favs and so underrated, and watching your reaction made me so happy! Hopefully you’ll check out some more Terrance and people will check him out because of you and this video. Thanks again and please keep doing what you’re doing x
Legend !
Love Sananda.
An amazing musician, who couldn't stand the shadiness in the music industry.
💗🙏🏾
guys he was right there with the first album it was huge around the world he had 3 hits sign your name whishing well ,he was big but refused to make another like the first album it cost him,its like prince refused to do another purple rain
He doesn't take after MJ, James Brown was doing the "Hah!" 50-60 years ago! And MJ didn't invent that falsetto either. Prince does it and he definitely didn't get it from MJ. I didn't get any MJ vibes from Terrence in the 80s and still don't.
I'm a TTD expert. Ask me anything. lol
my fav singer after Prince his voice is majestic
Your reaction faces are like ying and yang lol. I started watching for the great music, but stayed for the genuine dialogue. So many couples go over the top with the cringy intros. This is refreshing, I like this.
Short gray hair and still looking good and young???? Sheesh that man's got some amazing genes.
It's not grey, he cropped his hair short & bleached it, left Terence behind, and became Sananda
@@trismaccarran9950 thanks for the comment. I'm going to have to look into this and see what I've been missing
@@SomeRandomOldFatGuy he now goes by the Sananda Maitreya.
One of my most beloved artists since many years. Love this song so much.
Sweet to watch the reaction of the guy listening to it.
He refused to sell his soul. That's why he disappeared. .
Respect for this man ..
I'm glad he went back to reflect and come back a new man before the music industry Monguls chewed and spit him up, that's probably why he his still alive, l mean his fellow artists Michael & Prince, where are they now, it's a wild wild West industry.
What a live performance....AMAZING..x
Beautiful...
Good to know he's still doing music, I remember him from back in the day... he had a cool sound.
TTD/Now Sananda Maitreya is A Bad Man! Love all of his Music! You don't hear True Music like this anymore...God Bless him!
Not a single singer today can do this today. Note live, no ear buds……genus
James Brown not MJ their all around the same age Prince is a James Brown fan too.
I love this song. One of the best and in my opinion, Terence should have been better appreciated, it's magnificent.
man. I have seen this video literally about a 100 times, and everytime I cry, This cat is pure magic~ Love your reactions :)
nice soulful performance
Terence Trent Darby is a much better singer than Michael Jackson. Name one love ballad written by Michael Jackson
💫🎶💫🎶💫🎶💫 I've always loved his passion & soulful voice💃🏽 also he is very handsome😘💋
He was not enfluenced by michael.....Terence and Michael and prince were all enfluenced by James brown that's why there styles are somewhat similar even there dancing and the fact that they were all most popular during the 80s
WHY DOES BIEBER,DRAKE,LIL NAS, 6IX9INE ....ETC, HAVE MORE FAME AND MONEY THAN THIS GENIUS TTD? JUST DONT GET IT
Grew up on TTD as my dad used to play him all the time (Vibrator Album) criminally underrated, talent is flowing out his pores.
Supreme Master Terence. Cape Town South Africa 🌍♥️
He was and still is an international recording star. I asked, for one of his songs on Spotify, "Sign your Name" and it corrected his old name, with his new one. I am getting familiar with some of his latest music as well. He still sounds so soulful and has that same power in his voice. Age hasn't changed the awesome music this man has made and will continue. Just getting use to saying Sananda Matreiya instead of Terence Trent Darby . Either way I am still a fan.
You both are credible speakers but, you need to know a little more about his background, Terence is a genius
Amazing voice amazing lyrics totally original sound rock versus soul
Funny how Terence is known so well all over the world but not in the US, your radio stations are letting you down.
Brings me from my past straight into Church ❤
Amazing vocal from ttd people are sleeping on this banger
What an incredible voice.great singer.he is so talented
I came across this song whilst scouring through songs and fell in love with it. Terrence has a beautiful voice, beautiful soul, just beautiful.
Parabéns, video divertido !!! Esse Rapaz canta muitoooooooooooooooooooooooo !
I am yet to see someone reacting so purely to music as this man. Your smile while watching the performance is everything.
Genius 🔊
