AGAIN u had to be alive and listening to this man when showed up at the apollo as a amateur. HE Truly is unsung and shouldve been bigger. His voice hit on all levels . RIP 2012
My favorite song by David Peaston. Before auto-tune...when people could really sing and the words moved you. I miss music like this. Nothing like the 70's, 80's and 90's music!!!🎵🎤🎤🎼🎹🎶
David Peaston had that "send chills through your entire body" type of voice. One of the greatest vocal talents that ever graced the Earth. The fact that his career failed to launch into the stratosphere is baffling. Im grateful for having been watching Live at the Apollo in the late 80's to see his "God Bless the child" performance that brought the crowd to their feet and rendered me utterly speechless.
there have to be people like David Peaston and Luther Vandross out there today that can sing like that please make yourselves known we need you desperately
I remember religiously watching the Apollo and David Peaston is definitely one of a kind, the special range that he so artfully and soulfully mastered in his God-given voice. Rest David rest.
His range and delivery just brought tears to my eyes, I remember him, such a magnificent talent. I believe he was a school teacher. Bless your memory Brother David, we remember you, you are still singing to us from paradise. Ase'.
Sometimes music is so beautiful it makes you cry. I cried when I learned this giant with an Angel's voice made his transition. May be forever rest in paradise with Omar Chandler, Rick Aviles and other Apollo Legends. THANK YOU David
This is by far one of the best male vocalists I've ever had the pleasure of hearing. This song is dear to my heart. I perform it EVERY TIME it is possible and I'll always hold on to it. Thank you, DP for such a legacy.
yes great times like this. are a thing of the past, tv shows and the music industry have truly spiraled down. i no longer listen to today's music. i choose to view and hear these repeats.
Good has one AWESOME CHOIR❗❗❗ R.I.P. David Peaston. Angles make room in the front of the Heavenly Chorus for this anointed one. We were Blessed to have him if only for a short time. Amen.
Wow! Loved this cut by Eddie Kendricks back-in-the-day. His cover is wonderful. And they say he's made his transition. Another voice for the heavenly chorus.
Some people should not have stopped singing, I'm referring to Mr. David Peaston, This young man has such a beautiful voice, and such intensity in his vocals. Love it love it.
I loved this song when he first did it and I still do. I never understood why he didn't "make it," either. I think that he must have had some health complications--the ones that eventually took him from us--that may have held him back. Every time I hear him sing he reaches to my core.
Quite naturally the 11 thumbs down can't even sing in the shower🤣 let along understand supreme Vocals. Smh. Sing!! King👑2G/The 2nd Generation of Funk 2k18 We're still listening.
This song belongs to Eddie Kendricks but David did it better I love the rangement oh my God he really put his heart into the song did a fantastic job and I never get tired to here in this arrangement fantastic job David
AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME!
FANTASTIC

I'm one of them so I've been told! I'm working on getting the right producer! I was influenced heavily by these kinds of singers!!
Lawd knows. 'Cause the music industry as a whole, is a hot smelly mess right about now.🤦
One of the best voices to come out of Apollo ever!!! Absolute legend.
HE KILLED THAT SONG.
Greatest vocalist ever in my opinion. His vocal range and control are phenomenal!

R.I.P. David Peaston.
Angles make room in the front of the Heavenly Chorus for this anointed one. We were Blessed to have him if only for a short time. Amen.
Beautiful performance. A sort of homecoming back in front of the crowd who gave him his start at "showtime".
Wow - fantastic talent, and gone without receiving the recognition he deserved. Rest Well.

Remembering R&B and gospel singer David Peaston
(March 13, 1957 - February 1, 2012) [03/13/2016]
I didn't know he passed away. Gone too soon. Love his music, voice and style. R. I.P.
I didn't know he has passed on. I was just thinking of him singing this song and went to youtube. Wow! He is one of the greatest voices ever. ❤
I agree with all the positive comments on here. God given talent.
Great voice, Great Talent. Wish we still had singers like this, no matter how you try to explain it, we just don't
Just straight up perfection. Wow. RIP
Wow! Loved this cut by Eddie Kendricks back-in-the-day. His cover is wonderful. And they say he's made his transition. Another voice for the heavenly chorus.
Sounds good to me,yeah, its all good. Wondeful. ❤❤❤❤❤
Bravo Bravo 👏 🙌 👍
What A Beautiful Song!!
I hear a touch of gospel groove! Love his music!
Everything ain’t gotta relate to religion
another voice just as good as luthor vandross
YES BECAUSE HE CAN REACH OCTAVES WITHOUT ANY STRUGGLE OR STRAIN! AT ALL
Still love this tune 2019!!! R.I.P. Mr. Peaston
JUST ANOTHER ANGELIC VOICE OF 60’S AND 70’S!!
Was lucky enough to see him in Hammersmith odeon, with Keith Washington, 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great singer...Rest in peace. my Dear ,dear Brother.
Some people should not have stopped singing, I'm referring to Mr. David Peaston, This young man has such a beautiful voice, and such intensity in his vocals. Love it love it.
D.P became very ill and passed away. I don't think he had a choice of stop singing
.
May he and his sister Fontella Bass always rest in peace!
St. Louis own and the late brother of Fontella Bass(Rescue me)
I loved this song when he first did it and I still do. I never understood why he didn't "make it," either. I think that he must have had some health complications--the ones that eventually took him from us--that may have held him back. Every time I hear him sing he reaches to my core.
Come on Live b4 FB Live real sanging with the shoop boop...Rest Easy Mr. Peaston Class with Pizazz🎼
Quite naturally the 11 thumbs down can't even sing in the shower🤣 let along understand supreme Vocals. Smh. Sing!! King👑2G/The 2nd Generation of Funk 2k18 We're still listening.
They are ignorant and don't know what they are doing.
Loved him
Rest on ...one of the best
Today just arriving to work. I would love to hear Patty sing this song or niki Howell. Why not give a sister a chance to try.
A voice like velvet!
To me he was the R n B comparable to late gospel artist Darryl Coley
melodic voices in sync the very best .
Wow, I remember him.
This song belongs to Eddie Kendricks but David did it better I love the rangement oh my God he really put his heart into the song did a fantastic job and I never get tired to here in this arrangement fantastic job David
