I am so glad you finally got to James Ingrahm. I have always loved the rasp in his voice. You should check out "Baby Come to Me" and a song from the animated movie An American Tail, called "Somewhere Out There" with Linda Ronstadt. Both are excellent.
Bro... I've been trying to tell you about this artist... I'm so happy right now. His brother played with the group Switch. Another group I hope you play.
Outside of Adele and a very few others, today’s (popular/mainstream) music is just so lacking compared to the music of past decades. Keep ‘em coming Jayvee!
Check out George Benson- another amazing R&B singer! Especially his songs This Masquerade, Give Me the Night’ and Nothing’s Going to Change My Love for You.
Finally you get to experience the beauty of James Ingram vocals🥳 his other solo hits include, "One Hundred Ways" a must hear. Quincy Jones called on him A Lot for his collaborative productions. Prepare to be blown away - Quincy's "Secret Garden" (James, Tevin Campbell, Barry White...) He and Michael McDonald combine talents in, "Ya Mo Be There" and his duet with Patti Austin, "How Do You Keep The Music Playing" will melt you. 😉 love your sensitivity to lyrics and sound 💕
'Secret Garden' was sung by Barry White, James Ingram. El Debarge, and Al B. Sure. Which all men are great singer and should be checked out. They'll blow your mind!!
Here is some of his hits : I don’t have d heart, Yah mo B there ft Micheal McDonald, Somewhere out there ft Linda Ronstadt , Baby come to me ft Patti Austin, what about me ft Kenny Rogers & Kim Carnes, How do you keep d music playing ft Patti Austin.
His voice was a wonder. This is the kind of song you can go for years without hearing and still know every word. RIP James Ingram. Count me in for "Somewhere Out There." Imagine this gorgeous voice with Linda Ronstadt.
He has a gorgeous voice. Unbelievable how underrated he is (probably living in the era of Luther). But thankfully there are reaction channels to remind us how special he is. Next react to "One Hundred Ways."
His brother, Philip Ingram, was in a band with two DeBarge brothers - Tommy and bobby- and the band was called Switch; Switch has a couple songs you can react to - I Call Your name and There'll Never be; Also James Ingram - baby come to me is a good song and its a duet. He also co-wrote PYT for MJ on his thriller album; RIP James Ingram d.2019
I love the way watching you react to these songs I have heard for decades makes me hear them again for the first time. I got choked up all over again listening to this with fresh ears.
Finally someone reacting to James Ingram, thank you! James had such a beautiful voice! You should react to James and Linda Ronstadt singing “Somewhere Out There”
Great song great singer...definitely miss James Ingram.Suggestion for you take a listen to James Ingram,Michael McDonald and David Pack from Ambrosia collaborations
Love his voice so much. RIP James Ingram - gone too soon. Here some of my favorite James Ingram songs. Somewhere Out There with Linda Ronstadt is probably my all time favorite of his. Also Yah Mo B There with Michael McDonald and Baby Come to Me with Patti Austin.
A lot of the likeability of a song comes from how old you were, and where you were in life when a song was released. I was 16 when this song came out in 1981, and this is the last cheesy thing you'd want to rock out with your friends to when you were 16. A lot of songs like this were marketed for adult radio stations, so lots of us kids weren't having this. :)
R.I.P. James Ingram Alot of younger people don't know this but this song is tied to the soundtrack of a really good movie from the early '80s called The Last American Virgin it's the outro song to the film this song fits the ending so perfectly.
@@heri623 heri623 that's the scene that was the first movie I have ever seen that didn't have a happy ending even the Actress that played the girl that got pregnant she said she hated the ending but I guest the producers wanted to keep it true to real life sometimes the good guy doesn't get the girl.
Thanks for this, J! I love hearing songs that I've completely forgotten about-and then remember how much I loved it!! This is one of those songs that comes on the car-radio, or work radio and everyone hushes...just to listen and sing along.
Omg you need to react to James Ingram - I dont have the heart preferably live. This dude is crazy mad talented but never got the credits he deserved to get. The music industry is really not good at recognizing talented male pop singers.
R.I.P Mr James Ingram, another R&B master vocalist, you need to see his live versions of his impressive back catalog, they just don't make them like they used to...
Our hometown boy from Akron,Ohio...My friend John who was also a musician went to hight school with James,they were very good friends,great pick,love this song..R.I.P. James e John,both gone way to soon ❤
James is always one of the forgotten great voices, and one who no one can name on "We are the World," but he was included and given a verse for a reason.....amazing voice, a part of some of my favorite songs and gone too soon. I believe his brother was a part of Switch?
Jayvee is like; What?, like 49 seconds in. I'm like; Just wait, It gets WAY better! Lol. I have loved this song since it came out. Beautifully sung by Mr. Ingram.
This version is quite close to the original hit version, but for some reason they decided to alter the violin background in this re-recorded version. The violins in the original hit version had a steady and inexorable climb to an ultra high note that sent shivers down the spine. I hope you get a chance someday to hear the original recording. As beautiful as this is, that tops this one for sure.
Wait a minute.... a song with beautiful lyrics, excellent production and a world class voice. What a concept. Could someone explain to me why beautiful music like this is not produced today. Try " One Hundred Ways".
This song was in the movie Last American Virgin! Had me crying along with the main character. But yes he is what R&B was all about! So sad it does not even exist anymore.
I love James Ingram’s voice! He had so many hits in the eighties! Check out some of his hits, One Hundred Ways, Some Where Out There (a duet with Linda Ronstadt, and Yah Mo B There (duet with Michael McDonald) among others! His brother Phillip Ingram was is the R&B group, Switch, who had a number of hits in the late seventies/early eighties! RIP James Ingram! ❤️❤️
Just one beautiful, poignant ballad. Featured in the teen film, "The Last American Virgin", this is one of Ingram's biggest hit songs. Thanks for the reaction!
This song alone would be impossible to find today in the charts. Or a song as good as this one. The music from those years was so much better... Can´t belive now we just have computers singing in most of the songs. People who is not even a singer with their voices totally altered to sound "perfect" but they end up sounding robotic and souless. It´s really sad but I like to see that some people discovers the real music and your channel is helping for that purpose.
When I first started dating my husband, he played two songs for me First he played this song “Just Once” and told me it represented his past and then played me Foreigner’s “ Been waiting on a girl like you”! After that, I was hooked and fell in love!
JV ..... The duet between him and Michael McDonald called "Ya Mo Be There" is a must, please ! Track produced by Quincy Jones ..... It's just a brilliant track and both their vocals are amazing, it's a stunning combination .... Well worth a review ! 😉👍
My cousin, you hit the jackpot this Monday morning. I always think of James Ingram as the male equivalent to Céline Dion - a superb voice, perfect pitch, and expressed in intense layers of emotion. Thank you.,
If you think Celine is good, please check out Lara Fabian. Start with Adagio from her 1999 concert, From Lara with Love. She's the greatest singer you probably haven't heard of. And she's drop dead gorgeous.
I am so glad you finally got to James Ingrahm. I have always loved the rasp in his voice. You should check out "Baby Come to Me" and a song from the animated movie An American Tail, called "Somewhere Out There" with Linda Ronstadt. Both are excellent.
I second the song Somewhere Out There.
I grew up with him James was a great singer
I was going to post the "Somewhere Out There" suggestion too so I'll just co-sign :)
It's worth checking out anything Linda Ronstadt did.
"Baby Come to Me" is excellent!
The Power of great music 🎶🎵
Bro... I've been trying to tell you about this artist... I'm so happy right now. His brother played with the group Switch. Another group I hope you play.
Outside of Adele and a very few others, today’s (popular/mainstream) music is just so lacking compared to the music of past decades. Keep ‘em coming Jayvee!
Facts. R&B is a shell of what it once was.
He may be one of the most underrated pop/rock/soul vocalists in history!
I love this song ❤️
All his songs are 😭😭😭😭😭. “I don’t have the heart”. Listen to that one. 😿😿😿
Just an FYI this is the "newer version" check out the "old version" too, you won't be disappointed...
I'm sad I've only just discovered him, which is funny since I'm in my 40s and loved "somewhere out there". Amazing voice. 👏
This song was featured in Last American Virgin..A Teen Flick..
Check out George Benson- another amazing R&B singer! Especially his songs This Masquerade, Give Me the Night’ and Nothing’s Going to Change My Love for You.
Great Artist! Gone Too Soon
What a voice ❤️❤️❤️ " one hundred ways " is another brilliant track RIP James Ingram gone way too soon 💔
One Hundred Ways is so good! 💯 agree!
@@lilyraiyne9225 Baby come to me is awesome too
@@pistachiosandpopcorn7146 yes I love that song
This one and One hundred ways are my favorite songs of his, but his voice is just legend
@@TheKeystoneChannel it is he is sadly missed
Have always loved James Ingram. LOVE his duet with Linda Ronstadt, "Somewhere Out There", please check it out
Yes please listen to this song. It is beautiful!
Absolutely! Fantastic song!
I had forgotten he did a beautiful duet with Dolly Parton too for the Beethoven movie.
100 ways is A beautiful song.
They don't make R&B slow jams like that anymore... 80s 90s are the untouchable
I love his vocals!! He is soo good, you should check out One Hundred Ways, someone mentioned below and others by him!!! Love him!!!💗🕊
J, he had another huge hit, "Baby, Come to Me" (with Patti Austin). A beautiful duet!
That's my shit!
Yes, that's a really good one.
yes the soap opera General Hopsital helped it go to number on the charts back in the early 80s
YES!!!!
I love his other duet with Patti Austin more, How Do You Keep the Music Playing, but Baby Come to Me works.
Give "Ya Mo Be There" a try. He and Michael McDonald team up on it. So inspiring and relavant to today.
I can’t hear that song anymore without thinking of Paul Rudd 😂
One of my favorites. Song gets me dancing in my car seat!
Finally you get to experience the beauty of James Ingram vocals🥳 his other solo hits include, "One Hundred Ways" a must hear.

Epic album, Q's juke joint!
R.I.P. to James Ingram. Since you're also a Michael McDonald fan try James Ingram and Michael McDonald's Yah MO B There. You'll love it.
“I don’t have the heart” is another must listen by James Ingram
One of my favorites
I love that song
That song is so emotional. Love it
Such insane talent. We lost James Ingram & Luther Vandross way too soon!
Yes, James Ingram at last!
Check out his ballad/duet with Patti Austin "Baby Come to Me", you won't be disappointed.
Here is some of his hits : I don’t have d heart, Yah mo B there ft Micheal McDonald, Somewhere out there ft Linda Ronstadt , Baby come to me ft Patti Austin, what about me ft Kenny Rogers & Kim Carnes, How do you keep d music playing ft Patti Austin.
One of Best Male Artist ever. He should be Celebrated as much as possible. R.I.P. Mr. Ingrams ❤

You like Michael McDonald and now James Ingram you absolutely MUST listen to Ya Mo be there.
Thank you! Thank you! James was one of the best singers out there. One Hundred Ways is another good one.
Another underappreciated heavy hitter. Freddie Jackson, many songs but start with "You are my lady"
Do the session version of Yah Mo B There with him and Michael McDonald!
He was so underrated...such a beautiful soulful voice. So glad you finally found him!
Your right, this song was too touchy for me as a kid...and now 40 years later i finally realize how beautiful and powerful it is, touching my soul.
He also sang beautifully on We Are The World. R.I.P. James Ingram.
Peabo Bryson “Can You Stop The Rain “ and “Let It Flow”
Absolutely love James Ingram! You can't go wrong with any of his songs. Please check out "I Don't Have the Heart", one of my favs!
Love James Ingram my he rest In Peace died of brain cancer this is my favorite song he made, he has such a beautiful voice died to soon😢🙏🏽

James won a Grammy award for this performance
his voice is everything RIP
A beautiful classic! ❤️
This is a classic in my country. It’s still being played everyday in the Philippines.
Old school soul, man! I still get chills, he is so good.
Same here, wish he was still here!
Thank you. Finally someone plays James Ingram. Love his voice.
Love his voice so much. RIP James Ingram - gone too soon. Here some of my favorite James Ingram songs. Somewhere Out There with Linda Ronstadt is probably my all time favorite of his. Also Yah Mo B There with Michael McDonald and Baby Come to Me with Patti Austin.

Now you need to get into some Dramatics and you will have it made.....Me and Mrs. Jones(The Billy Paul classic)

His VOICE is legendary 🙌 as good as his soul. Kind man. Check out his duet with Anita Baker, and Michael Mcdonald.

Loves James:))) Thank you for reacting to such a classy classic vocalist...song is so romantic
One of smoothest soulful voices ever! Love James Ingram 🔥

One Hundred Ways-gta listen to that
I Don't Have a Heart is a heartbreaking amazing song. I love his voice.
Title is actually "I Don't Have THE Heart"-just FYI.
You should play, Stevie Ray Vaughan, live version of life without you, it's absolutely amazing
My cousin, you hit the jackpot this Monday morning. I always think of James Ingram as the male equivalent to Céline Dion - a superb voice, perfect pitch, and expressed in intense layers of emotion. Thank you.,
