    Lyrics:
    I look in your eyes and there I see
    What happiness really means
    The love that we share makes life so sweet
    Together we'll always be
    This pledge of love feels so right
    And, ooh, I need you
    Here and now
    I promise to love faithfully (Faithfully)
    You're all I need
    Here and now
    I vow to be one with thee (You and me), hey
    Your love is all (I need) I need
    #LutherVandross #HereAndNow #RoyalAlbertHall
    Luther Vandross was a musical master whose style has influenced an entire generation of today's vocalists. His distinctive brand of satin smooth vocal magic moved international audiences and continues to touch people to this day. For almost 25 years, from 1981 to 2005, Luther Vandross dominated the American R&B music charts like no other artist before or since. In that span he released eight #1 R&B albums, seven #1 R&B singles and another five Top 20 R&B singles. He achieved crossover status with eight Billboard Top 10 albums, including reaching #1 with 2003's Dance With My Father; and another five Top 10 Billboard Hot 100 singles.

I hate how songs nowadays is all about hedonism. We claims to fight sexualism and yet praising unnormal sexual culture .

LORD is ALWAYS 🙏 THERE. I'M TALKING ABOUT HUMAN COMPASSION AND LOVE 💕. Watch the video the Earth 🌎 song. Not the live version the video. If you are interested.

      Search Gary Barlow…, he’s been so popular in the UK since the 80’s /90’s. He was with the group Take That (still is when they reunite). He wrote their music and writes his music today. He writes with Andrew Lloyd Weber too. His love ballads and words are special and different. None of his followers cannot understand why he never made it here. His following is tremendous. If you’re interested respond to this message and I’ll give you more names.

      Every time he holds that mic 🎤 I would instantly connect with him, for any song he sings. No other artist has done that to me. Not even a single song he would sing and not connect with me. What a huge loss to the RNB music. We lost a legend. May he forever rest in Peace. God bless his soul.

    Luther Vandross had finally gained industry recognition as this song gave him his first Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance in 1991, the track released in 1989 from his Best Of album was more evident of his now superstar status as one of the top 5 male solo Soul artists ever, with Luther lasting the pace throughout the 80s until his untimely death in 2005 with some stunning ballads

    • @junior2404
      @junior2404 8 лет назад +18

      +J Eshun Good point, however a nomination is enough to say that you have gained industry "recognition".... and boy was he recognized! Every album he had received nominations... My only problem is that he was boxed in the R&B category, where as I think he transcended the genre. So whilst he was recognized, he never got the recognition he deserved.

      my grown grand children sing Luther and TeddyP, they grew up on what I feel is the best music of all times...The Temps, Luther, TeddyP, Lionel Richie, Barry White as well as Stevie Ray and many of the Blues greats & soft jazz, music that means something, everyone can sing to, it was a time when music was REAL not the garbage they pump out now from a computer lab. It is just feel good and to know that some of the great talents have gone on leaving us a legacy of wonderful music for generations to come.

    Having used to listen to him as a young boy, I think he taught me a great deal about love and how to express it as a man. And learning to love the depth of the human soul..through how soulful and pure his music was. Especially his voice...also those back up singers are killer. Rest in peace, Luther.

    My Boo just send about six of Luther classic Love Songs. I took her to see Luther some 35 years ago. We just reconnect after 50 years. She lives on the East coast I'm in the South. She was my childhood sweetheart.🌹My sister best friend, I was her first Love.❤️ We just came off a 4 days cruise sailing throughout Caribbeans and end the weekend in Miami dinner and brunch with a close friend and his wife Sunday. Pray for our Reunion, like Luther said, "Make it last forever!" 🙏🏿
