Is this real? You mean to tell me there was a time when a lady and her musicians and a record label etc..would actually produce real music. I can breath again....
Breath taking. Who is remotely sounding like this now? Music just doesnt have that same it factor anymore. I am sick of hearing mainstream. I need to hear what the heart has to say. Not what is in the pants or in the bank account or all that other crap!!! This is pure music!
Never before heard this version. It's pure 🔥! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Anita Baker 👑🎤🎶 is one of THE BEST female singers to ever do it. 'Caught Up In The Rapture'! Brava!
It's 102 degrees outside, and it's a really cool temperature here listening to one of the best that ever did it...sing to touch the heart and soul of a MAN...
This is definitely from a time when music meant more than how much money you can make. It is about the craft itself, how it makes you feel and knowing that your message is getting across. Thank you for such a bueautiful song.
Oh goodness do I love this song! Very soulful! Anita Baker so blew it out of the water with this one. Plus, the part where she goes "I-I-I-I'm caught up in the rapture..." and the sort of scat in the intro makes me smile. The song's two years older than me, but still, I find it magic. It kind of makes me wish whomever I end up with would like songs like these too so I can sing it to him and he'd get it. Hahaha!
kids screwing around..this is one of the best songs I've ever heard....believe me if they don't like it now give them ten years, a few broken hearts and they'll love it..Anita Baker is a genius and she's GORGEOUS !!!!
As another comment says ... love the last 2 minutes... the way the band just start ... well just strumming... only thing missing... wish Anita would add some sexy 💖 none words vocals ... just harmonise with the instrumental strumming... utter perfection 💖
I did the same thing! As soon as I heard her I went the next day to buy the album! I also disagreed with the critics (again...) and knew she was special! Feels good to be right, doesn't it? LOL
Anita Baker is in a smooth, sassy & Jazzy vibe... she can't be compared to a Whitney or a Mariah.... Me, I love them ALL, they move me each in a very different way... right now, it's Anita.. fond memories of her Brilliant cd from the '80's... every song was a masterpiece... this one at the top of the list. As I listen further, it seems this is a different track than the original, great just the same, TY!! Mx
This extended version just enhances this tune. Was great before but this ending was wicked. Only heard it once before on my old media player but yep wicked version.
Oh !!!!! Ms Baker 😍you are singing this classic TOO me ,NOT at me ... cannot stop , after the first clicking on , have to play this heart felt track at least 5 times in a row 💖
Thanks so much!! This was on RUclips a while ago, but taken down. I hope it's not taken down again. The remix version of "Caught Up in the Rapture" is so amazing!!
OH MY GOSH!!!! That was me!!! I'm Tasha!!! Wow, I was hoping i'd hear from you again. You were ALWAYS on my mind until i met this cute guy about 15 minutes after you left town.
One of my all time black woman singer. It never stops amazes me tho on how good she hits the notes everytime I listen to her great hits. Kudos Anita, kudos!
I RAN to buy her first album. I stumbled on the reviews from critics, which were terrible. I laughed! I knew (coming from music myself) that this woman, Anita, was so, so,SO special! No one has tried to mimic her, they can't -- they're not that long-winded! Her vocal arrangements and stamina just blew me away!
It was a different time back then. Anita like so many sisters had to bust her proverbial ass to make it. 40 years later, she's finally getting her due😊
Thanks so much for this upload. It's like listening to the original vinyl record - especially with the image of Anita Baker on-screen being the same image from the 122 record. I keenly remember listening to this at the tail-end of 1986 and early 1987, as a school kid, and being enthralled. It hasn't lost any of it's lustre 👏🏾🎼🎹❤👌🏾
I really miss that "Voice" and wow what a beautiful woman. Is she still performing? I was listening to her when the only way to record her was on Maxell II cassetts. Still in listening condition.
this song takes me back to when music was just that! music was meant sooth & calm the mind not make you want to act out! i am truely greatful to have been born when i was. now i can truely say i know what music is..............LaDeja Knight
Excellent.... and thanks so much for this extended version... Anita Baker, there are no words to describe her talent... I must get this to add to my collection, just sensational... she is an amazing song stylist!! Thanks, Marcie ***** & faved.
This is more like the version that was played on the radio. I remember 25 years ago or so, I was slightly disappointed when I bought the album and found the arrangement was different and didn't have the same feel as this version. This upload is obviously off a vinyl record and is running slightly fast.
Looked everywhere for this extended version.
Sublime remix d'une sublime chanson. Merci RUclips.
DO YOU KNOW HOW MAD I WAS THAT I COULD NOT FIND THIS VERSION????
Is this real? You mean to tell me there was a time when a lady and her musicians and a record label etc..would actually produce real music. I can breath again....
Yep long ago! No more though
Or even breathe...
I think i love this version more than the original. It sounds more complete. Beautiful song!!
Those last two minutes are GOLDEN 💛💛💛
Breath taking. Who is remotely sounding like this now? Music just doesnt have that same it factor anymore. I am sick of hearing mainstream. I need to hear what the heart has to say. Not what is in the pants or in the bank account or all that other crap!!! This is pure music!

Masterpiece..love the extended version...makes my my mind and heart flys away 💖
Im in Heaven right now!!!!
I'm addicted to this version! love the jam session at the end with the instruments!
The 1986 Rapture album brought me here.
Who else is up jamming to this at 5am❤ making my coffee ❤
NOW ❤
Anita Baker and her songs are for me the stamp of the millennium change.
The Last 2 Minutes Is Just Unbelievable! Class, And Style
That's The Way You End A Song
Instrumental
Beautifully Done!
I'm been listening to this jam when I was on my way to work and come home from work
It's 102 degrees outside, and it's a really cool temperature here listening to one of the best that ever did it...sing to touch the heart and soul of a MAN...
Awesomely beautiful...
This is definitely from a time when music meant more than how much money you can make. It is about the craft itself, how it makes you feel and knowing that your message is getting across. Thank you for such a bueautiful song.
Anita's vocals and musicians...simply wonderful.
thank god we alive to hear this beautiful voice.shout out to the up loader....
Glad I'm not the only one that feels this way.

Oh goodness do I love this song! Very soulful! Anita Baker so blew it out of the water with this one.

.

Such a gorgeous song. This is the best version of it I've ever heard.

''WITHOUT COMPARISON''..''ANITA WAS THE ONE OF THE BEST'' and... ''STILL IS''
This version is funky. Anita is a legend.
Funky, just like all the other versions
THIS IS IT!!, I hate when new artist TRY to cover a legend in any way shape or form, its annoying, you can't replicate THIS sound...ever
I agree with you totally
NeoYah I love it even her voice
No one can redo this classic it was made for her!
Rule ONE: Do NOT cover a great jam...find something that needs work..
JoJo messed up the song
one is really caught up in the rapture. What more can one ask for? This is what heaven is about.
Thanks so much!! This was on RUclips a while ago, but taken down. I hope it's not taken down again. The remix version of "Caught Up in the Rapture" is so amazing!!
oh my, this is rich and sultry.
She is sooo beutiful in her voice and oh so sad 2!
I have always loved this song, and hearing this extended version has made me love it even more!!!

I truly Agree Anita Is Sassy And Jazzy And Very Smooth! Go Girl.
