Every black woman of a certain age knows all the lyrics to this song, as well as Norman Connors doing "You Are My Starship", Smokey Robinson's "Cruisin' ", Lionel Ritchie and The Commodores "Zoom", and Bobby Womack's "If You Think You're Lonely Now". If you've been to a black BBQ you've heard all of these tracks.
I'm an old white guy who grew up in that era loving all the R & B releases . Michael Henderson absolutely kills it on You Are My Starship which is in my top 5 of all time favorite R & B songs. And of course the music is great with that awesome bass line.. I think Kenny Lattimore did the song good justice too.
I happen to be a brown skinned woman if a certain age….nobody beats LTD🔥 and been in the backseat of my mother’s 70 Impala with Cruisin’ on many times. Much love ❤️
That album picture was the r&b group called the Stylistics and not LTD. The song playing is LTD with Jeffrey Osborne on lead. This song was very popular at parties where everybody got up and slow-danced.
Thank you, Wayne and Keith for the request! *Classic* R&B slow jam and what a Master Class vocal performance by Jeffrey Osborne. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 And, yup, Angela those strings!! 😂 @ “grown folks music” 💯
Great reaction and good ear, Angela. That is indeed Jeffrey Osborne, who sang lead for LTD before going solo. LTD(Love,Togetherness, Devotion)...r&b soul at it's best. Thanks for the memories. ❤
Great ear Angela! That was indeed Jeffrey Osborne singing lead. And yes, this is grown folks music😅 Definitely slow danced to this one. The orchestral arrangement is really beautiful on this. A couple more of their songs you'll like are Holding On, and Back in Love Again. Loved the reaction!
yes , that is Jefferey Osborn. He left after 2 or 3 albums. L.T.D. was a really a full band with horns and stuff. Don't understood why it looks like a vocal group in the photo. They had some good hits , but weren't the same after Osborn left .
Thanks Angela...love love this. Oh life was so much better back then...i feel so sorry what the youngsters are going through...in this now terrible world. Yall gotta vote right!
Love this song, and YES it's Jeffrey Osborne, who was the lead singer of the group before he went solo. There is a great cover done by George Benson, and he does it with a faster beat. Both are classics. Someone mentioned it, and I also noticed that the album cover is not LTD, it's the Stylistics.
L.T.D One of the first records I bought as a kid with my lil money I liked the cover art then, and the music was phenomenal. KC sunshine band, Bootsy Collins I was 9
Great song from a great band! Love Togetherness & Devotion is the bands name spelled out! As mentioned by another sub, Jeffrey Osborne was their lead singer! George Benson also performs a more fast paced version of this song that is equally amazing and groovy! Check it out if you want! Hasta luego you all!
The phenomenal Jeffery Osbourne. Great tone and range. I loved this song when it came out. I was a 20 something then and we were bombarded with great music from all genres. Thank you for bringing up these great old songs.
From the Frat DJ check out if you have not already Chicago "Colour My World " Jim Croce "Time in a Bottle" Minnie Riperton "Come Inside My Love" and Atlantic Starr "Send for Me"
That was Jeffrey Osborne singing, but the group in the picture is the Stylistics, not LTD, which had 10-11 members in the group. Anywho, thanks for all you do, keeping this great music alive!
This was written by the same song writer who wrote Loves Holiday, you called the song Would you mind, by Earth Wind and Fire. Earth Wind and Fire turned it down.
That is Jeffrey Osborn singing lead, before his solo career. LTD had some other great aongs as well "Shine On"..."Holding On"..."Stranger"... "Where Did We Go Wrong". They have a great catalog.
The group shown in the video are the Stylistics, not the band LTD. I don't know why they couldn't find footage of them, it shouldn't have been that hard.
Bingo! The one and only Jeffery Osborne! He, along with his brother, were members of the group Love Togetherness Devotion (LTD) with Jeffery being the lead singer!
Yes - J.Osborne. Re-watch 🎶WeAreTheWorld🎶: Jeff's in 1st 7 artists (skipped over by Zillenials [not u]) who don’t know Osborne is an icon in 2 music genres. 🔥
Hey Angelo great reaction! I know I'm going to age myself But they don't make songs like this anymore! Such smooth Passionate lyrics!! Makes you wanna grab your lady Sway and groove with them!
You need to listen to Bo Bice, inside your heaven. You will cry hard!!! He was on American idol came on second but I think he should of won! Btw you are so Rad!!
Yes That was Jeffrey Osborne singing lead before He went solo!! Thank You Thank You THANK YOU for liking my choice!! It made my day!!
Nice
I knew I recognized that voice but couldn’t place it!
From Providence, Rhode Island, my man, Jeffrey Osborne, underrated
Thank you for requesting . I haven't heard this one in years. Jeffery has such a wonderful powerful voice.
Yes it was him with LTD, before he went solo in the 1980's
That is indeed Jeffrey Osborne . He started his career with LTD.
The lead singer Jeffrey Osborne has a very unique voice he left the group and became a big star
Clarence ..I forgot that was him. Wow, he went way back. Gosh I saw him a few times at Christmas shows in the 2000s.
@@michaelasay8587 I literally JUST got home from a Jeffery Osborne concert! A amazing performance

Great reaction and good ear, Angela. That is indeed Jeffrey Osborne, who sang lead for LTD before going solo. LTD(Love,Togetherness, Devotion)...r&b soul at it's best. Thanks for the memories. ❤
Quintessential 70s soul love ballad - awesome and how could it not be with jeffrey Osborne singing?
Jeffrey Osborne was the lead singer of LTD, same as Teddy Pendergrass was the lead of Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes.
Great ear Angela! That was indeed Jeffrey Osborne singing lead. And yes, this is grown folks music😅 Definitely slow danced to this one. The orchestral arrangement is really beautiful on this. A couple more of their songs you'll like are Holding On, and Back in Love Again. Loved the reaction!

Yes that’s Jeffery Osborne. This is what we call Soul Music and it was in heavy rotation on the Black radio.
Beautiful song Thank you
The Album Cover is not LTD. The cover is the group The Stylistics. Jeffery Osborn is singing lead. He was a member before going alone as a soloist.
One of the greatest love songs of all time. JOs voice was tailor made for this song. A prefect mix.
The photo you had up was of another super 70's group called The Stylistics!
One of those last dance @the party jamz. Memories of romantic nights @Weequahic park with this playing on the 8-track😉
If you want a completely different LTD vibe try either " Stranger " or " Back in love again "
Or even Holding On!!!
Lol that photo is not L.T.D. It's the Stylistics😊
yes thats Jeff Osborne. Girl keep listenin to his music... You will be blessed hahaha.
Angela...you and yr hair is beautiful!!

You were right DayOne. The Stylistics are the gentlemen on the red cover,,, not L.T.D.
The picture displayed is of The Stylistics not L.T.D. Yes that is Jeffrey Osborne he started out as a drummer and lead vocalist with L.T.D
Nice Choice Angela. I hope we can hear the George Benson version of this wonderful song.!! Love the original!!!

Very nice song!! I really enjoyed this!!

Been hoping you would do this song.
Bingo! The one and only Jeffery Osborne! He, along with his brother, were members of the group Love Togetherness Devotion (LTD) with Jeffery being the lead singer!
Good Ear,with The Jeffery Osborne notice,I saw it in your face,I was like"yep,she knows "🙂👍

That Was Jeffrey Osborne, the picture you had up was the Stylistics not LTD. LTD was a band not a singing group. LTD had so many great songs.

What Album cover are you putting on your blog? I don't think that's LTD.
I don't remember this,maybe after I hear it.
Your next LTD song needs to be CONCENTRATE ON YOU. The lead singer is Jeffrey Osbourne.
Yes, that's Jeffrey Osborne long before he became a solo artist.

Luther, Anita, Freddie Jackson, Atlantic Starr, Mint Condition, Babyface, Jodeci, Boyz II Men, Mary, Faith, Toni, Maxwell...
