    I think his voice is the best I’ve heard. There’s plenty of amazing voices so I mean 🤷‍♂️ the smoothest voice I’d say for sure. So smooth just can’t be beat

    A super nice reaction 👏🏾! Al Green's outfit 🤦🏾‍♂. I see 👁👁 you have reacted to Al Green before: Let's Stay Together- Audio, Let's Stay Together- Live and How Can You Mend A Broken Heart. Tired Of Being Alone was released as the lead single from Al Green's 1971 album: Al Green Gets Next To You. It was written by Al Green. It was produced by Willie Mitchell. The song reached #7 on the Soul Singles Chart and #11 on the Hot 100. It sold one million copies and was certified Gold. The song is playing when Chris Tucker's character in the 1995 film: Dead Presidents, is sitting in his chair watching Al Green on Soul Train (this very same performance) after he overdoses and the police raid his apartment.
    According to Rolling Stone Magazine's 500 Greatest Singles, this song came to Al Green when he woke up before dawn the day after a show in Detroit at a motel in rural Michigan with a song forming in his mind. Half an hour later, he had it written, but his producer Willie Mitchell wasn't much interested in Al Green performing his own material. Said Al Green: "I was toting my song around in my pocket for days on end, saying: 'Hey, I got a song'. Finally, at the end of the session, I said: 'Well, I still got a song'". It became Al Green's first music chart hit.
    The song has been featured in some TV shows including 📺: Sex Education (2019), American Soul (2019), EastEnders (1992) and more.
    The song has been featured in some films including 📽: Rocket Gibraltar (1998), Dead Presidents (1995), When The Cat's Away (1996), Heart (1999), Love Don't Cost A Thing (2003), American Reunion (2012), Chef (2014), Traumfrauen (2015), The Best Of Enemies (2019), Cheaper By The Dozen (2022) and more.
    The song has been covered by some other artists including 📻: Al Jarreau, The Lost Generation, High Inergy, Tom Jones, Michael Bolton, Pee Wee Ellis, Graham Bonnet, Sybil, Madeleine Lang, Texas, Shane Richie and more.
    Legacy 🛡:
    In 2004, the song was ranked #293 on Rolling Stone's list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time".
    Lyrics 🗒:
    I'm so tired of being alone,
    I'm so tired of on my own,
    Won't you help me, girl,
    Just as soon as you can.
    People say that I've found a way,
    To make you say,
    That you love me.
    But baby,
    You didn't go for that,
    Ha, it's a natural fact,
    That I want to come back,
    Show me where it's at, baby.
    I'm so tired of being alone,
    I'm so tired of on my own,
    Won't you help me, girl,
    Soon as you can.
    I guess you know that I, uh,
    I love you so,
    Even though,
    You don't want me no more,
    Hey, hey, hey, hey I'm cryin' tears,
    Through the years,
    I tell you like it is,
    Honey, love me if you can.
    Ya baby,
    Tired of being alone here by myself, now
    I tell ya, I'm tired baby,
    I'm tired of being all wrapped up late at night,
    In my dreams, nobody but you, baby.
    Sometimes I wonder,
    If you love me like you say you do,
    You see baby, I, I, I, I've been thinking about you,
    I've been wanting to get next to you, baby,
    Sometimes I hold my arms and I say,
    Oh baby, yeah, needing you has proven to me,
    To be my greatest dream, yeah
    I'm so tired of being alone (Tired, baby)
    So tired of being alone (Yeah, you don't know what I'm talkin' about)
    So tired of being alone
    Sometimes late at night I get to wonderin' about you baby
    I'm so tired of being alone (Oh baby, baby)
    So tired of being alone
    So tired of being alone
    I'm so tired of being alone (Oh baby)
    So tired of being alone (You're my heart's desire)
    So tired of being alone
    Al Green Info 📰:
    Al Greene aka Al Green was born on April 13, 1946 in Forrest City, Arkansas. Al Green began performing with his sister in a group called The Greene Brothers at around the age of ten. The Greene family relocated to Grand Rapids, Michigan, in the late 1950s. Al Green was kicked out of the family home while in his teens, after his devoutly religious father caught him listening to Jackie Wilson. He then lived with a prostitute, began hustling and indulged in recreational drug use.
    In high school, Al Green formed a vocal group called Al Greene & The Creations. Two of the group's members, Curtis Rodgers and Palmer James, formed an independent record label called Hot Line Music Journal. In 1968, having changed their name to Al Greene & The Soul Mates, they recorded the song: "Back Up Train", releasing it on Hot Line Music Journal. The song was a hit on the R&B charts and peaked at No. 46 in the Cashbox Top 100. However, the group's subsequent follow-ups failed to chart, as did their debut album: Back Up Train. While performing with The Soul Mates, Al Green came into contact with Memphis record producer Willie Mitchell, who hired him in 1969 to be a vocalist for a Texas show with Willie Mitchell's band. Following the performance, Willie Mitchell asked Al Green to sign with his Hi Records record label.
    Having noted that Al Green had been trying to sing like Jackie Wilson, Sam Cooke, Wilson Pickett, and James Brown, Willie Mitchell became his vocal mentor, coaching him into finding his own voice. Before releasing his first album with Hi records, Al Green removed the final "e" from his name. Subsequently, he released the album: Green Is Blues (1969), which was a moderate success. His follow-up album: Al Green Gets Next To You (1971), featured the hit R&B cover of the Temptations' song: "I Can't Get Next To You", recorded in a slow Blues-oriented version. The album also featured his first significant hit: "Tired Of Being Alone", which sold a million copies and was certified Gold, becoming the first of eight gold singles Al Green would release between 1971 and 1974.
    Al Green's next album: Let's Stay Together (January 1972), solidified his place in Soul music. The title track was his biggest hit to date, reaching No. one on both the Billboard Hot 100 and R&B charts. The album became his first to be certified Gold. His follow-up album: I'm Still In Love With You (October 1972), went Platinum with the help of the singles: "Look What You Done For Me" and the album's title track, both of which went to the top 10 on the Hot 100. His next album: Call Me (April 1973), produced three top-10 singles: "You Ought To Be With Me", "Call Me (Come Back Home)", and "Here I Am (Come And Take Me)". In addition to these hit singles, Al Green also had radio hits with songs such as: "Love And Happiness", his cover of the Bee Gees' "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart", "Simply Beautiful", "What A Wonderful Thing Love Is" and "Take Me To The River", later covered successfully by new wave band Talking Heads and Blues artist Syl Johnson.
    Al Green's next album: Livin' For You (December 1973), was certified Gold. He continued to record successful R&B hits in the next several years including the singles: "Livin' For You", "Sha-La-La (Makes Me Happy)" from his 1974 album: Al Green Explores Your Mind, "Let's Get Married", "L-O-V-E (Love)" and "Full Of Fire".
    In 1976, Al Green established his Full Gospel Tabernacle church in Memphis, Tennessee.
    By the time Al Green released his 1977 the album: The Belle Album, his record sales had plummeted, partially due to Al Green's own personal issues during this time and his desire to become a minister. His last Hi Records album: Truth n' Time, was released in 1978 and failed to make an impact on the music charts.
    Continuing to record R&B music, Al Green saw his sales start to slip and drew mixed reviews from critics. In 1979, he injured himself falling off the stage while performing in Cincinnati and took this as a message from God. He then concentrated his energies towards pastoring his church and Gospel music.
