Best singer ever listen to it every day. Too bad this kind of music isn't made Best si❤️🎶❤️nger ever listen to it every day. Too bad this kind of music isn't made anymore
I'm Kevin Smith from Winston Salem NC and I'm just a little rough boy. Don't matter what you think I am. All that in mind, music pushed by love will change the world 🌎
I'm an older white man that has loved soul music as long as I can remember. Percy, Otis, Wilson Pickett, Sam Cooke, Aaron Nevels etc. Brings back a basket full of memories.
I'm 71 years of age and appreciated the glorious music of the greatest of all times soul music. What a God given talent. Long live the memory of Percy Sledge.
Me to I’m an older white woman. My husband and me loved to listen to Percy on dates.I had them play between these arms at his funeral.It brought back a flood of memories.
Percy Sledge: I've been studying the life and times of this great man. Done hardly anything else on the web for months. Now, I'm into comparing some other 'artists' who have done some of the same songs as Percy. I can clearly see WHY he was named "The Golden Voice of Soul." Some of the best, all time great artists DON'T HOLD A CANDLE TO PERCY SLEDGE. His voice is strong, unique, and it is able to cuddle up inside your heart at the first sound. I am SO hooked/stuck on him, all these years later, it's unreal. Have fun, take a DIVE into his life, his awards, his friends, his peers, and ... how DEEPLY everyone who knew him, truly and deeply LOVED him. He was, and IS a very special spirit. No one that I can think of can come close, or BEGIN to compare. And, that's the truth.
Say ... I love the story about him singing "hold on / I've gotta get a message to you" before the BeeGees got it (and wasted it). His rendition is hard to find ... but it's on vinyl on 'Percy Sledge - Live in South Africa 1968'
Percy Sledge is certainly among the greats but I wouldn't put him right at the top. Little Richard is an amazing soul singer along with Otis Redding of course, Sam Cooke and the father of soul himself...Solonon Burke.
firstly I know who is Percy, ...when I was back home together with my friend from graduate school...1985. I hear the song ...my special prayer....until know when I was grandpa....I like the song and other by Percy......God Bless You......
THERE IS A NEED FOR ANOTHER SON TO BE BORN TO TAKE THE SOUL MIKE FROM YOUR HANDS. YOU WERE AND REMAIN THE SOUL KING!! YOU ALSO HAS THE BEST SOUNDING BAND - All the way from Namibia.....Much Love Mr. Sledge- always.
My brother's stereo was up against the wall his room shared with mine. I slept to his Greatest Hits album every night for years (and this was in the mid-to-late 80s). I'm not sure who turned him onto Percy Sledge.
Sadly this is very true, AND I guess it has to do with my being blessed with these past 63 years... They definitely don't make music like this anymore But thankfully we have the music and the memories we associate with them...
I have loved Percy since I was in third grade (1973) my friends mom took me to elementary school in Wilson, NC..eight track, no doubt! I loved this voice and my friends mom voice( betty) she would say stop singing mama!!as I WS thinking, sing on and turn it up in the Buick Electra!! most fond memories of my life!! Marie from Wilson, nc
I saw him in concert in 1972. Wondering if it was that same concert. Awesome! There is no music like the 60's and 70's music. Wish they were still with us today and performing. Miss them so....
@@sherriwallace7414 Percy Sledge was one of the greatest singers I have ever heard he had a voice that was outstanding-he was loved by his Fan's very much till the end..& sill today even more.
Persey Sledge takes me back to when we would build bond fires and dance the night away. They say a song can take you Back, well Mr Sledge velvet voice takes me back with the First note out if his mouth...
@@jamesmoore758 Hello Mr. Moore. They are the irreplaceable ones in soul. They are famous and have won 💓 the world over. I still found records in my parents' belongings😥. I love them💓
only a fool as a music listener could not recognize that this man was the king of soul music and a singer with extraordinary talent just take the time to listen
You are 💯 right this man is for sure one of the best! In my book!!! And if any one doesn’t agree then they don’t know what great music. Just me thinking 🤔 come on who is with me on this.

My first time 2018 to listen to him- I discovered him in Smule when I was searching for Eddie Peregrina’s “ What Am I Living For”! He’s so good! He’s now on my playlist ‘tributes’!
In 1967,me a young german soldier hat my first contact with black american soldiers in and my Turkey,sinc that time I like them music and my children also
The very first album i've ever bought (40 years ago!)...the best of Percy Sledge. I paid with nickles and dimes...still got it and every now and then i listen to it! Great!!!
Me and my husband use to dance to these songs back in the 80"s . But we don't do that anymore he passed away in 2004 and when I listen to them it brings back good times
The first time I heard Percy was around 68. I was in the Navy stationed in Pensacola, Fl and he was playing a club across the bay and his music and songs just flowed across the Bay, was just a great summer evening with the cool breeze blowing off the water. Great setting even if I wasn't at the club. RIP Percy!
Because he sings our feelings and the places we have been or still there! I agree with your statement!! He is One of my All I time favorite's. !! He sings my heart!!!

Why feel the need to say you are white? :/
He is one of the best singer of our times I started listening to his music since I was in primary school and up to now.
One Of The Greatest Singers Of All Times ,R.I.P.
Greatest soul singer ever 💖💖💖💖 Love you forever and will listen to your songs til I die 🌹🌹🌹💐
He does have an amazing voice but even more, it's an unmatched charisma he's got.
OMG! I remember my parents ...their music-so sweet to watch them dance! RIP MR Sledge !
Soothes my heart.
Percy was one of the best soul singers with a unique and clear voice that brings out his words. I just loved him - he was booom!
Percy was a gift to me...his voice was heaven sent...good days
Hi,i hope your fine?
Percy Sledge epitomised everything that is soul. There will never be another and we are poorer for the great mans passing.
Can’t wait to hear him in heaven with our Lord I pray. His songs have been favorites all my very long life
