they may be capable, but the industry is so controlled by powers that want artists to sign up and write, sing, look and perform a certain way. Those that don't sign up are just as good or better, but they don't get in
For real you have to listen to the words of this wonderful classic. I always enjoyed his music 🎶🎵💕. I think about someone that I miss very dear to my heart.
You cannot beat 80's music.... so relaxing and inspiring... where are those days. Please bring back the real singers and musicians. Get rid of the electronic crap & one hit wonders.
Oh wow The quiet Storm I remember I used to go to bed listening to The quiet Storm there was nothing but hit after hit after hit nowadays it's just garbage after garbage after garbage........ DAMN
@@chrisbond6056 good for you what other suggestions are you looking for bc there is a ton of great r&B music of the '70s and '80s this is and always will be an all-time classic
Believe or not in 1985 this was voted the best soul funk track on Robbie Vincents show by listeners at that time nuff said brilliant underated smooth soul funk classic
Just saw him and Cherelle in Chicago this weekend. Great concert both performers sounded good and were so down to earth and personable with the fans in the audience.
Alex, absolutely owned it for a few minutes during his reign, untouchable. I personally am partial to THE MORNING AFTER.....sweet memories of my time in the Navy.
The song makes the video even better. That goes to show you that great music makes everything better. Alexander knew what he was doing when he made this... Long live soul music!

Such a fantastic late night song. Reminds. Me of the lonely nights in the late 80's when I wanted the girl I loved to be near me but she was unhappy and with another.
Very underrated singer.Grew up listening to Al.He played college football at Alcorn State in the early 80's.Me and Al are from the state of MS.Got That Southern Swag.....
Man this brings back such wonderful memories. In a time when things seemed simpler. Take a evening cruise during the fall and feel that cool air through your car. So soothing and relaxing. Thete will never be a time like the 80's.,..
am 19, i grew listening to music like this, i feel sorry for the kids now that don't know about real back in da day music. When i have my first am goin rise them around music like this. to understand the real truth about throw back R&B music
Bought a cassette from morrisons horsforth Leeds, drove to holy island , ended up in Scotland Happy days . Still with the same lovely woman , we both still love this record and treasure the memories - Vaughan Leeds
Si yes yes yes. I forgot to mention that in my comment. White candles lit, with blue, and purple lights flashing. A very seductive classic song. It doesn't even have to be love making music, it can be slow dancing to it with your special someone that you love, or just rolling in a Cadillac ( if you have one ), at night time, listening to this jam in your car.
I was a child when this song came out. I remember the movie "Serendipity. " I was married at the time. My wife and I both were moved by the genuine love the two people displayed for each other. Great video, wonderful song. It reminds me of a love affair I once had. Wonderful memories.
I had a son who was ill after being born, he was in the special care baby unit, I had a sony walkman and a tape called 'The Boy's' on it and this was one of the tracks, I played it over and over waiting for him to be okay, he turned out okay I hope, His mother turned him against me with lies so I dont know where he is now but hearing this always reminds me how close we once were. Thanks Alex you always will be special to me.
Same boat. My son was born with jaundice. He stayed in the hospital for about 2 weeks. My son was also born on my birthday which happens to be Valentine's Day. Just like you his mom turned him against me. I pray one day he sees what she's doing. I'll be here when he's ready. Love you Tristan Carlon Cedillo-Rome.
Alexander O'Neal you were the great smooth operator man you got the pipes to make a woman just melt you made a lot of people melt I saw those women throwing panties up on the stage white women white hahaha thank you baby I had a crush on you when I see you all the time on the video of innocent girl innocent I tell you I just want to thank you for all of the swooning music and love making music the joy that you made us feel that happiness sound man I love you thank you Alexander O'Neal!!!!
Gday luv Back in the day he was spitting out those hits Luther Teddy Alexander So underrated..a classic crooner voice so butttery This is my jam..and my favorite crooner Listen everyday Mr Alexander the Great O Neal always starched and pressed Battled those demons still sanging across the pond A legendary and iconic
Remember seeing Alex with my girlfriend in the early 90s at Alexandra Palace in London woooooow what a night still remember like it was yesterday. I married her had two boys and now they listen to all my old school music. Beautiful
Just the perfect tune for wantin to give all the love you possibly can to someone so so very special! witch doesn't pass by often" sometimes the person you lone for is rite next to you without realising OMG xxx

I feel like he was very underrated.
He wasn't underrated, one of the best soul singers of our time 😊
I totally agree with you. I absolutely love this song.
Drug addiction stopped his success
@@patriciatoney240 sad
He was MASSIVE in his time - not underrated at all.
As already stated, sadly, it was his drug addiction that ruined things for him.
sometimes you just need to need to hear a good old song
