    This song is SO TIMELY for my family and I! My 13 year old sister has cancer, and Sunday I had gotten a call from my parents asking to gather all of my siblings to come and say our goodbyes… We prayed, we asked for a miracle, and here we are 5 days later and my sister has made a MIRACULOUS recovery and doctors are in AWE!🙏🙏

    If this isn't best thing musically that GOD ever created I don't know what is. The three elements of the universe. This song is 33 yrs old and it is just as relevant today as it was in 1981. This just set my soul free to hear these GIANTS of music do something that will NEVER be duplicated. EWF then, now and forever.

    I was born in the '70s, but I'm envious of those who were teens and adults during that time because there was so many outstanding musicians and performers. They say the golden era of hip hop was during the '90s (which was my coming of age), but I think the '70s was the golden era for RnB.

    LOVE THIS MESSAGE AND SONG!!! Maurice White was truly a genius and Buddha of his time. If you've ever listened to the lyrics of this song, "That's The Way Of The World", and you agree with them, then you're a card carrying liberal/progressive and you need not be made to feel ashamed that you possess a heart of gold. This song says, "...a child is born, with a heart of gold. Way of the world makes his heart grow cold." If that's not a belief in the inherent goodness of man vs the belief that man is inherently evil or bad, nothing will convince you. Man is good...it's the conditions he has to navigate that effects his choices that often plays into his choices that we never see. Yet we still judge. Be blessed...all of you!

      @@markginsel4238. Verdine undoubtedly knows the EWF tunes really well at this point. So, I candidly don't know if there's a recorded bass track playing at concerts (or if the keyboardists help him on synth bass).
      The way this whole thing apparently developed is that there are a few recorded situations where Verdine made appearances with other top bassists (of our era) at jam sessions & master classes. In multiple instances, other well known bassists were quite skillfully showing off their mastery & artistry on the bass, while Verdine was fumbling & essentially sounded like a HS level bassist. I get the impression that it prompted folks in the "bass world" to start looking at Verdine a little funny.
      Here's one such appearance...

    In my opinion, what happened to the Black music scene is about where it came out of back then and where it comes from now. The difference is the Motown era talent came mostly out of the Black churches. Much of the new talent in the Black entertainment community comes out of the hood. There's a big difference in personal experience there and not for the good. Instead of expecting excellence as Barry Gordy did, the new talent agents accepted mediocrity and that's how we got where we are today.

    @3:35 true SHREDDING begins. Musicianship was phenomenal. You always got MORE than your monies worth at a EW&F concert. A celebration!
