I've been looking for this song for over 20 years, lol. Great memories of my college days & my 1st adult relationship, thx for posting! I know her personally, my mother & her family went to chuch together back in the day. I still remember meeting her in her dressing room & the cast of The Wiz! Still have the pictures to prove it, lml! 😄
I was 14 in 1988 singing this song like I knew what they were talking about. Now at 48 I definitely know what they’re singing about and I love this song even more
I love this song ! Robert and Stephanie sounded so Awesome together! This was the ( JAM). SONG. Stephanie Mill and Robert Brookins Should had done a few more song together. Sounded so Awesome together. Would like to know more about Robert’s music 🎤 RIH so sad Robert Brookins RIP😔
Who is still listening to this in 2024?? I know I am( true r&b).. they'll never be this kind again.. So let us hold on to it and remember all things that were good
@mariaclaudiasantos290 Yes. There's another version on the soundtrack to the movie "Dead Presidents" by Jesse and Trina. It sounds good too, just a faster tempo. Oh, and don't forget about Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway. They all sound great.
Stephanie and Robert tore this song up 🎤! And they hit those notes like it was nothing🎶...........Effortless talents with a capital T😉.....Perfection👌!
That's what this generation is missing out on. Those slow jams that promote love, dealt with real issues, and definitely put you in the mood. It's still needed.
Everytime Steph throw up her hands and 'THAT'S ALL I CAN DO' gets me everytime. some serious song stylin sangin, chemistry and soul all on this track and in this video.
Stephanie is a true vocalist in every since of the word. I love the remake of this song, her and Robert really did a good job they sound so very good together.
There's definitely something when white singers will work hard to sound like a black singer but as a black man or woman you simply sound like who you are. It's powerful.
something told me he was no longer with us, and here I find it to be true after looking for this video.. this song is even more bittersweet for me now..
God I just love this darn song ever since I was young. I remember watching the video on Midnight Love on BET and singing it like I was going thru a similar relationship at 11 years old lol. Stephanie Mills is one of my musical idols!
Still WOW after all these years...the rendition that rivals the original with its sass and swag...RIP RB...Stephanie, you will always be my sweet sensation..
I still luv this song after all these years!! I swear they don't make slow jams like this anymore!! I'm 48 & I luv listening to my 70's, 80's & 90's slow jams
Hi Jerome 👋 I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….
I was in college going through the same issues in this song and it hit the nail on the head. I really loved the vocals of Robert and Stephanie. I am sorry to hear that he passed. He was an underated singer
this is my friend we where so close I found out you were no more that break my heart to hear that news . I remember all the late nights in the studio waiting to work out afterward and we end up going to eat at one of his favorite spot HOT Wings on Melrose you will forever be missed i was thinking of you and so pull this song up my dear Friend Robert Brookins
I have this cd and I play it like if it just came out , so soothing to listen to . . They dont make music like this anymore . . I b so saddened due to I want to hear more and more
Woke up and song in my spirit. Humanity has lost and forgot about true love. I know this song is about two lovers, yet the love between the creator and human is far greater than anything 😌

I remember watching this on Video Soul back in the day. Great video and vocals. Stephanie did some great duets. Nice tribute to Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack.
Great song great duet Stephanie and Robert RIP Mr. Brookins saw him in concert 1986 with the Stanley Clarke Band he sang great voice played keys and also bass
Yeah. Stephanie and Robert look and sound like they've let us in on their relationship, while Roberta sounded too flowery (to me) for the subject matter.
In no way am I taking anything away from the original artists. I just prefer this version a lot better. Shout out to Roberta Flack & Donny Hathaway(BTW Donny is my fav singer of all time). Stephanie & Robert killed this Jawn. Love it!!
Stephanie has a history of having good chemistry with the male vocalists she collaborate with but no they didn't date but almost every guy she sings with, she makes it look like its something more
@@djv-anthoni5891 I have never seen a more true perspective. I dont know what's her better gift. Singing or the amazing chemistry she has with every duet
First orginial '70s duo the late Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack, '80s duo Stephanie Mills and the late Robert and the '90s duo Jesse Powell and Trina different taste of soul but all sound good .
A multi talented brother from Sacramento CA!!!! Area Worked with so many great artists, EWF and others will be missed
There's something about a Black man's strong and powerful voice. Rest easy Robert. Rest in perfect peace.
He passed? What caused it?
@@carameldiva5131 He had a heart attack in 2009
I had no idea he passed.... But maybe I forgot.... Rest In Paradise Mr Brookins.... Singing In The "Heavenly Choir"🙏🏾🙏🏾❤🎤🎼
He passed? No Idea... Rip
This is Mervins brother. ✊👍💯

RIH so sad Robert Brookins RIP😔
i don't remember i want to say in the late 80's early nineties!
Stephanie had the HAIRSTYLES back in the day. What ever happened to Robert?
autobot diva He passed away in 2009 from a heart attack.
No one can compare to Donny Hathaway's and Roberta's version and I love Stephanie Mills all day!
Who is still listening to this in 2024??
I know I am( true r&b).. they'll never be this kind again.. So let us hold on to it and remember all things that were good
I have the 45 of this song.
This version is addictive. Sometimes it brings me to tears
Me too 🇧🇷
Me three! ❤
@@ednasilva6332❤
Omg! Is it a version?
@mariaclaudiasantos290 Yes. There's another version on the soundtrack to the movie "Dead Presidents" by Jesse and Trina. It sounds good too, just a faster tempo. Oh, and don't forget about Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway. They all sound great.
Stephanie and Robert tore this song up 🎤! And they hit those notes like it was nothing🎶...........Effortless talents with a capital T😉.....Perfection👌!
Agreed!
I’m surprised she didn’t have ex singing wit er on this song. His name is Michael Jackson ✌🏿
❤❤❤❤
Man one of those Quiet Storm classics. Man I miss the quiet storm days.
That's what this generation is missing out on. Those slow jams that promote love, dealt with real issues, and definitely put you in the mood.
It's still needed.
Stephanie has always been so fly!
Always
Midnight Love on BET
They would play this video every night.
Miss the 80s...

Teddy Pendergrass, Robert Brookins, she could make good duets.
something told me he was no longer with us, and here I find it to be true after looking for this video.. this song is even more bittersweet for me now..

CLASSIC - No dis to Donnie and Roberta, but I always thought this was the best version. Plus they really looked like they were gettin it in.
Great chemistry
Yeah. Stephanie and Robert look and sound like they've let us in on their relationship, while Roberta sounded too flowery (to me) for the subject matter.
THIS IS THE SONG THAT MADE ME LOVE MY 💘 MAN... THIS SONG TAKES ME BACK TO OUR MEETING EACH OTHER AND WE ARE STILL GOING STRONG 💪💗💓❤💖💛
RIP MY MAN,REST IN PEACE
@TheBiznesslady He passed away sometime ago, may he rest in peace
When you have two SANGERS who can BLOW like this, you can't miss. They MURDERED this song !!! One of the best R&B remakes of all time.
In no way am I taking anything away from the original artists. I just prefer this version a
lot better. Shout out to Roberta Flack & Donny Hathaway(BTW Donny is my fav singer of all time). Stephanie & Robert killed this Jawn. Love it!!
Ikr, this is my preferred version….
They are so good together with wonderful voices
This song right here Wow!!!!! I didn't realize how much I'd identify with it when it first came out LOL!! Beautiful 🥰🥰
He said, “I really wanna give it to you”. And he looked straight in her face. I believe you Robert. 😆 Rest in love and music!
Were they ever a couple? Good chemistry. Fine Man. Stephanie kills it as usual. 8- )
Stephanie has a history of having good chemistry with the male vocalists she collaborate with but no they didn't date but almost every guy she sings with, she makes it look like its something more
Stephanie Mills dated Jeffery Daniel of shalamar for a while
@@djv-anthoni5891 I have never seen a more true perspective. I dont know what's her better gift. Singing or the amazing chemistry she has with every duet
@@thepromiseman7745, not only did Stephanie Mills date Jeffrey Daniels, Stephanie Mills was once married to Jeffrey Daniels...... March 16, 2020.
the promise man They were married for a minute. That’s exactly how long it lasted, a minute
He said its right here! Yasss.. stephanie had the best hair. With her beautiful self
Stephanie is gorgeous and Robert is handsome! This video overflows with "Fabulosity" !
Beautiful remake!!!
Robert sounds a bit like Christopher Williams.... Beautiful duet
Flip that. Christopher Williams.... sounds like Robert.
One of my old tyme favs
They made a great duet. I wished they made more songs
The new year 2020 is right around the corner.. anyone still loving this in 2019?
Love Stephanie's swagger from 3:00 to 3:05.
Great post I brought this song when it came out finally someone has caught up to it's greatness!
this remake right here; they truly made it their OWN. knocks the original out the ballpark
Is the vamping that makes it
His husky voice is a mix of Teddy Pendergrass & David Ruffin..... sing sir
