In my 26 years of life I’ve never experienced a feeling like the one 80s music gives me !! It is a cure for the souls !!! Bring the real music back !!!!!!!!!!
When artists of 80's went in to create music, it was a passionate affair. This was music you can feel! These days, you can tell the difference. Low vibrational, and full of garbage. Most! Not all.
Nard is a very important person in hip hop. He’s waaay more than this song. At 16 he was a jazz monster and played on hits. Then he played with Miles Davis at 19. Then decided to make some money song he wrote produced, arranged, and sang on out of his own pocket and came out with a number one song which is this album. Unfortunately he died at 50 this year. It het me really hard because I watched it all happen in real time. We were all part of the NY music scene. It’s weird to say but he was one of my peers and everyone knew he was different immediately.
RIP Mr. Wright 😞 This song instantly transmits me back to mid '80s summer. My childhood aches right now, but I'm so thankful for your contributions to the arts and our culture infinitely. 🙏❤❤
Bernard Wright when this jam came out, man this was really the shit! I still listen to it today and still jam off of it. So many good memories from back in the day. The 80's was the shit as far as I am concerned when it came to music. The best era ever. Very care free and everyone had such a good time and really enjoyed themselves, unlike in today's time if you try to go out now to a club and have a good time, you doing more ducking from bullets than you are dancing or enjoying yourself. I am glad I was born during the time and era I was cause I have no regrets at al when it came to our music and entertainment.
"For You, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling" (Psalm 116:8). Stay humble, & be grateful to the Lord!
Sad this voice is now silenced forever but I sure didn't know he was Roberta Flack's godson. May he rest in peace and I love how LL Cool J sampled this song for Lounging.
@Yemi source? Or are you basing everything on your experience? There's a whole world outside so called culture on tv or people in the ghetto. For the bad ones should men take responsibility, or is it all on women? Men saying they want a project bitch are any better?
@Yemi apart of intelligent conversation is having evidence to back your claims. You are just generalizing. Proof is when you say plenty of women lack context. Do you generalize whenever someone doesnt agree with you? Or is it because you are the one lacking what is needed for an intelligent conversation? You said women stopped romance when they said they wanted rough necks. Where is your evidence to say that's what women want? I'm sure the vast majority dont want that. Should I say that men stopped romance when they said they wanted project bitches? Of course not because that is a generlization. There are numerous factors that go into a cultural change. The fact that you want to blame women for this shows you lack either knowledge on the subject or maturity. Site some sources if you wish to prove me wrong. Of course you will tap out because you clearly have no basis.
Hearing this song back in the day when I was in my early teens, I felt this was how it was when you fell in love, It carries so much emotion in the voices, it has never lost its warmth even years on!
I remember when I was like 8 I heard this song on the radio in the car with my dad. I got home and started playing the melody from memory on my keyboard. Tried to find the song for years and then I heard the LL and Total version. It sounded like it but something was different. Finally I’ve found the original song I heard on the radio that day and I feel like my life has come full circle. 🙏🏽
Please, let me make a true confession I had never been in love before But since you came in my direction I've had a change, a change of heart My girl said come a dime a dozen I fed them things they love to hear I never was wanting for a lover But I never knew that true love was indeed Who do you love? Girl I'm in love with you Are you for sure? Sure as the sky is blue Who do you love? Just let me prove to you Are you for sure? Yes, girl my love is true I used to be the great pretender For the very first time I'm for real You've got me listening to my heart now You gotta believe how real I am ready to be become the giver Now that I realized that it is give and take Oh, love has broken my defenses This time I'm not just only me I gotta tell you babe...

Love this BROTHER! He came to Dallas in the late 80's and stayed here for several years. He wrote and produced a couple of songs for our group( The Buster Brown Band) and played with us on numerous occasions. He also produced music for other groups such as THE MAC BAND. He's an awesome talent and extremely GIFTED!
Being from New York, I can vividly remember all the Breakers and Pop-lockers bum rush the dance floor as soon as they heard the intro to this jam begin. It was time to GO TO WORK!!!
I remember playing this song almost the day it came out on my College radio station in Albany New York, it was on GRP records which really surprised me because that's not really a black music label, this song flew high from the first day I played it, the phone rang off the hook with people wanting to know who it was, still sounds as good today as it did way back then!
@@kartelqueez9312 hey neighbor nice to meet you, yes this was one of many fantastic song from back in the day that I still listen to all the time, back when music really was great!
I just found out a few months ago that LL Cool J sampled this. Even though I grew listening to Lounging Remix with LL. I am glad to hear the original and I'm glad LL did this song justice because a lot of new artists are ruining classics

Damn him and jermaine Stewart are gone. Fuc time is slippn
In my 26 years of life I’ve never experienced a feeling like the one 80s music gives me !! It is a cure for the souls !!! Bring the real music back !!!!!!!!!!
tell em, real talk!
The 80s was by far the greatest most creative decade of music. When looking overall. Pop, Rock, Hip Hop, Soul.
When artists of 80's went in to create music, it was a passionate affair. This was music you can feel! These days, you can tell the difference. Low vibrational, and full of garbage. Most! Not all.
Welcome to our teenage years
Nard is a very important person in hip hop. He’s waaay more than this song. At 16 he was a jazz monster and played on hits. Then he played with Miles Davis at 19. Then decided to make some money song he wrote produced, arranged, and sang on out of his own pocket and came out with a number one song which is this album. Unfortunately he died at 50 this year. It het me really hard because I watched it all happen in real time. We were all part of the NY music scene. It’s weird to say but he was one of my peers and everyone knew he was different immediately.
This song brings back school memories at social nights in the boarding house. It's 2024, who's listening with me?
Rest in peace Bernard. Thank you for a classic we still play it today in 2022.
Amen.A Classic to the Heart.TYVM

They don't make music like this anymore!😭
I feel bad for the kids today 😔
paak, d'angelo, bruno mars
This is on every comment with old music lol... But true things are less diverse today... So many duplicators and imitators, not many innovators...
Indirectly, they still do this music but with hint of modernity, listen to "Good Friend (Night Tempo Showa Groove Mix)"
I agree!
RIP Mr. Wright 😞 This song instantly transmits me back to mid '80s summer. My childhood aches right now, but I'm so thankful for your contributions to the arts and our culture infinitely. 🙏❤❤

Very care free and everyone had such a good time and really enjoyed themselves, unlike in today's time if you try to go out now to a club and have a good time, you doing more ducking from bullets than you are dancing or enjoying yourself. I am glad I was born during the time and era I was cause I have no regrets at al when it came to our music and entertainment.
better then the 90s? hmmm i'm not so sure.
So true

Absolutely! He’s Roberta Flack’s son.
Bernard Wright! True Legend! RIP!
Found this dope song today,nothing like the 80s music
One of my Favorites! Rip to a Phenomenal Artist! Just like his Mother the Beautiful Ms Roberta Flack..💖🙏🏽❤
Her godson
Never knew he's the Son Of Mrs Flack...
Roberta Flack was Bernard’s Godmother instead of mother.
Brilliant tune. RIP Bernard Wright.
Rest In Peace Mr. Wright this song will forever be in my heart.
This song is timeless!!

This song brings back memories of my teenage years in the 1980s🌹👏🖤🤎✊
