I'm standing here next to my dad who just passes away about an hour ago. This song came to my mind because as the sun rose the rays came thru the window so bright the nurse came and said she'd never seen it so bright in any of the rooms. She looked at me and said im sorry your dad has passed. I know now why it was so bright in here. God had opened the pathway for him to cross over into Heaven today 8/9/2022 1 day after his 83rd Bday. Love you always dad.. Sidney Beckom R.I.P.
My condolences to you and your family
R.I.P my birthday Twin. I pray I live a long life such as you did. My condolence!
My condolence

May God bless you all the days of your life! May He shine on you!🙏🏼

Sorry for your lost my brother. Hope everything is all well with you and your family man I know how hard death is .
My deepest condolences Prayers for you and your family God Bless you
Sorry for your loss
Listen closely..."It's gonna be a lovely way to spend the evening..." This song is not about death and transitioning. It is a love song, speaking of a man and a woman finding the ultimate pleasure and heavenly bliss in one another. IT IS ABSOLUTELY THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BALLAD EVER CREATED!
AMEN Sister, that was very well said by you and may GOD always be by your side!!!!!
God's morning 🙏🏽Always loved this song 😊😉
I was in the army when this was released. It is my all time favorite song bar none.
And your right, that’s what it’s about love, something so hard to find, ❤
It's about sex and too many people don't get that
I honestly don't think music today will ever touch the feel and composition of the music from yesterday. Just a pure perfection!!!
Eddie Levert could sing from the very bottom of his emotions to the very top, and his voice expressed that. One of the finest and most enduring artists ever to grace the music industry. GREAT music !
I love this song so much. I listened to it all the time. It helps me go the pain I'm dealing with. I've had MS for 16 years and I'm still going. That is because God is here with me 😇
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Im with u too!! All prayers
God bless you. I pray for a complete healing of every cell and bone, every muscle and nerve in your body in the powerful name of Jesus! So mote it be. Amen
I've had MS since I was in my late twenties ,signs were showing up when I was a young child. Music gets me through it. My big brother got me started with music It's my go to when things get rough it does'nt take my problems away but it helps me even if just for a little while, I love this song.
@@danawhite6458 we are still going cause God is with us 🤓
When my Dad past away above his head was this bright light leading on to the other side only my daughter and I could see this the tears! I miss you Mom and Dad!!
🙏🏿🙏🏿💯💯❤❤
Sorry for your loss may God comfort you 🙏
BEAUTIFUL....cherish this memory!!!!!!
Amen,That part 2021
What A Blessed Moment .
Shalom
My twin brother passed away 15 years ago, and the morning on my way to the funeral home for the funeral, this song came on the radio. As I listened to the words many tears came from my eyes, and I thought, my brother is walking up the stairs to heaven. I'll never forget that morning!
those are the correct words to remember a Brother.
so glad you found something to comfort you - I cannot even begin to imagine how hard it must be for you - you are in my thoughts, especially when I listen to this gorgeous track
This is a song about sex ahahaha 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I 😂
I lost two sons and I can see one waiting for the other to make that trip to heaven together love you
My mom died,and didn't attend her funeral.i was lock up .I know the good Lord led her up theStairway to Heaven,She Loved this Song ..Love you Mon!!
Wow…I randomly came across this song & it reminded me of my dad. I lost him the day after Father’s Day this year. He got me into all the great oldies such as this one. Miss you pop!🖤
My condolences to you and your family
Im sorry, i know its hard im currently going through it too. We WILL get through this bro, all love my way💯
I feel your pain lost my dad 12yrs ago this was his song
It's a hard song to listen to but I have too
i loss my daddy 12 days before Father’s Day and 21 days before my 20th birthday in 2020. Daddy love ole school music. ❤️🖤
My son was recently shot and killed in cold blood the day he passed away I was in the children's unit of the hospital and this song kept playing in my head. Ik that my son was taken for now reason but ik God was calling my baby home 😭😭😭😭😭 rih my prince Derrick Jr 04-20-2023
Tf that thug nigga do
I am so sorry. I will pray for your family.
Sorry for your loss
So very very for loss , how are you doing these days?
Praying for peace and comfort for you and your family!! One day you will see him again and what a glorious day that will be!!
My 10 y.o grandson asked for this as his song choice. It speaks volumes.
He's had a good loving environment; but his mother treats him poorly for no reason. He has to witness his younger brother get preferential treatment and still he's his protector.
You couldn't ask für a better big brother despite the incredible lack of concern from his mom.
That's where his aunt, great grandparents and myself give him the attention, love and care he needs.
I was flooded with tears when I his aunt told me he requested this song. The same day, his mother spitefully removed him and his brother from our home where he knew he was secure and safe.
Pray for him, them and US!! My next step is get him back. My daughter, his mother has no stable home other than the one she chose to leave.
It touched me too deeply. That's the fire I need to put all my energies into getting them to a safe haven again.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Praying for you and your family... God heals All when the time is right not just right now..
God will make a way out of no way hand on your blessing is coming
My prayers are with you! I know how you feel! I face the same thing! And I haven’t been able to see my grandsons for a while now! But I know God has his hands of protection over all their lives! Much love and prayers to you!
Any update 😢I hope you got your young kings back
Their will never be group like the O'Jays ever again. I Miss music like this. Love the O'Jays
You are so right. No one compares to the O'Jays

Absolute and Unique...The incomparable Ojays
I lost my dad 11/27/23 and this song has been in my head every day since it makes you smile and cry at the same time RIP pop
🙏
Give it all too JESUS your dad is resting in the arms of the Lord ...God Bless you
Just lost mine as well. Song stuck in my head forever
Sorry for your lost homie. Stay strong. God bless
This song is not about death. It’s about passion, ecstasy. He loves her so much that she takes him to paradise. But I can see where it can be interpreted in a different way. Because it doesn’t matter what song Eddie sings. He will take you to church y’all….
So I guess that it is open for interpretation, and discussion. This is what makes it a great song. And this is what makes The O’Jays The Mighty O’Jays.
Let’s give them their flowers now y’all.🙏🏾
Yes u are totally right
Just saw them last night in New Orleans and wish they'd sung this song ❤
I know I lost my dad and husband all in the same year 2023 I'm trying my best to be strong for my children but it's hard prayers to all of you
I lost the love of my life last year as well, he would have been 72, but God has you and yours as He has me, we’ll make it through. Keep going❤️
🙏🏽🕊️🙏🏽
This song is about making love being an analogy for heaven. BUT we certainly feel a spiritual connection to the song because the OJays deliver it in such a masterful way. Plus it's one of those songs that helps define the Black American experience. I love the nostalgia AND I love the use of heaven as a metaphor for making love. THE MIGHTY OJAYS🔥🔥🔥
They had some good musicians. Too bad most people that love the O'Jays don't know the band members.
Amen amen amen father God
Peace
Yesss
Bravo 💪
Try listening at this song very closely fans, this beautiful song isn't about death or crossing over, it's about an Intimate and a Spiritual Bond between a man and a woman!!!!!
It's so gross 😂🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮 people are disgusting
Heaven is right here on earth sealed the deal for me that it is a song about sex. 😬
I always suspected that....but it's just nice to see someone else confirm it too👍
Thank you
Music is poetry - and poetry is multidimensional in interpretation. In this case the literal interpretation is romance. But the spiritual interpretation is dropping a single life and finding that person with whom you join as one to travel to Heaven (a place of safety, purity, love) as one…and to together forever. Hence the lyrics say it’s going to be like “Heaven”
Just lost my mom and as devastated as I am...her love of music that she passed on to me will be what gets me through. I love you mom, forever and always.❤😪😥
Condolences and prayers
Just lost my, Mom heard this on the radio. I know she's in Heaven.

🔷This song is completely powerful🔷
THE HEARTBROKEN AND SADNESS IS REAL. THIS SONG MAGNIFICENT
The song is about making love
No words but this song often speaks to me as a person who has loss so many people in my life including my dad. Not to mention being a former foster child, life just hurts at times and seems so unfair. #GriefHurts 🥀😢💔
Missing Tom, Dad and so many of my friends that was Taken ways by Cancer
As a Elder, woman of God I can relate. I tell you the Most High God is real and will give you the desires of your heart by faith. Be blessed dear heart.
I totally agree, me being a foster child
❤️
You are not alone my Brother, be encouraged.
The O'Jays is by far one of my favorite groups very powerful lyrics Here We Go climbing the stairway to heaven here we go walking the road to ecstasy taking the load of this old world off our shoulders the doors wide open for you the door is open for me wow..
Yup!!! Sharing love away from the cares of this world!!!
One of the best groups ever!!!!
Still performing just do their original all we need .
Definitely!
Jesus saves ❤. Reminds me of good times with my family.
Jesus is a false god sista.
Funny how this song is about two lovers and pleasure, has nothing to do with loss. "A moment of pleasure" what a beautiful song. Love it.
Who's here March 2024❤
Agreed. It is clearly about making love, not dying and going to heaven. The title is just a metaphor. He even says "It's gonna be JUST LIKE going home", "walking the road of ecstasy", "stealing a moment of pleasure" and "taking the load of this world off our shoulders.". These lines would make no sense if the song were about death, loss and bereavement.
March 2024 here
Me
April 2024. IG comment section brought me here. Someone said they hear this song at funerals but they don't know why because this song is not about loss 😂
Sometimes a song can mean EXACTLY what helps a person get through their rough, happy, or experience they are facing at that time.( It's not going to change the meaning from the person who wrote the song) Sometimes we just have to let people have their moment of getting through.I have really had an experience reading the difference meaning of you all and it was amazing. Have a peaceful day to all of you.
Man.. This Song!!! This Album!!! And this cover is by far one of the most beautiful pieces of cover art work, Ever!
Masterpiece
Remember when album covers were works of Art
@@beatricewoods8377 that was when the albums were works of art.. with heart and soul.
this is a cover song?
@@jordynsimmons1107 No, i was referring to the album cover.
This is the first time I have ever heard this song and I LOVE IT!!!!!!
Me too, first time... But then again, I love The O'Jays 🎶❤️🎶❤️
@@TheCaulfield1 I’ve been hearing it since 2009
what's the name of the rock you've been living under😂
LOL!
@@dmohine6159 no rock, just young😍 from a seasoned woman, love that you 🥰 love it
I didn't realize a "Couple Forevers" sampled the background music. I can certainly hear it. Beautiful song and arrangement. No wonder we're drawn to certain music 🎶
This is for all the Covid19 folks that had to leave us alone with no Family by their side!!!😔😞😢
Praise God for his blessings
Amen...Amen🙇🏾♂️Yes..
God Bless Them..🙇🏾♂️yes.
Jesus says "i will NEVER leave or for sake you" it is written!!
@Sallys TightField "ampersand " ! Sex is a good thing whenever it's consensual ; "let's get together boo!" Normally, i think when people die, those left behind have a tendency to engage in "dat" activity ! "Hit me up" . . .
they played this at my grandma funeral and mannn this gets me every time
Same rip grandma
🙏🏾🙏🏾
They played a song about sex at her funeral? I question your church's morals
@@Iknowyoumadnow 😂😂😂
😢😢
One of my favorite R&B memories from college days. The O'Jays will always have something that will never be duplicated. The current crop of singers just haven't lived what we lived and they are mere artifacts of their parents who catered to their every want and need. Long live the 70's!!!
I hear you! Ojay's for days at CSULB dorms. Yes, the 70's, nothong like them. Thanking God for those precious, precious memories and days.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💝💝💝🌈✨️🎶🎶
Its incredibly lucky, that we were here on this earth when this timeless music came out. Thank God for the TSOP . Nowadays the new generation has nothing to fall back into.
So sad, for them. !!!
This my mama favorite song she kno every word from start to finish she has made me grow to love this song it’s truly beautiful
Jesus..... I'm going to heaven. Step by step. Haven, sweet.heaven❤️❤️❤️

My parents loved this song RIH I miss y'all so much. Thanks for raising me with positive values to pass along to my children. 🙏🙏

Just found out my friend is dying and this magically from God started playing on my playlist?? Absolutely chills and tears started!!
GOD IS SOOOOO GOOOD AND HE LOVES HIS CHILDREN HE ALWAYS LET YOU KNOW HE IS THERE FOR US AND THAT HE SEES WHAT WE ARE GOING THROUGH YOU WILL BE OK GOD'S GOT YOUR BACK
No coincidences
Lost my uncle and my cousin the way they loved this song makes my eyes drop tears everytime but i know god works in his own way they in a better place even tho the tears wont stop cause they were pillars in my life i thank god ❤for the time he gave me with them
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Almost a year this month, my mama left us. This song was on repeat. I LOVE her and miss her much.😥🙏🙏💋🌹
This song is a masterpiece
Word up.
I love this song makes me feel even closer to the man above every time I hear this song it's so meaningful!!😇💯
Bbb:v:
@Sallys TightField Hello to each its own, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and to their thoughts. You are entitled to your own thoughts just like I am! If thats what you get from the song then that's what YOU get. I DONT GET THAT FROM THIS SONG AT ALL!!!!
@Sallys TightField Exactly fine because I,ME, I said I literally said cant NOONE tell me the meaning of anything. I take what I want to take from anything and make my own decisions and choices about things. And I don't get or take anything sexual from the song. With that being said you have a blessed, safe, great day love!!!
You know it’s about sex tho right?
@@labriaardoin8765 You know we all have our own brains though right?
God please look after the ones who lost someone who touch there hearts I pray you give them the strength they need to heal from their loss 🙏🙏🙏🙏💪🏾. 2024!
Still the little girl with the Raggedy Ann doll after all these years. Love has no color. Your music brought me up.Thank you from my heart.
In the Name of Yahushua, Blessings and Comfort in this time of your need. Love is The Eternal One Yahweh Elohim ✔️🗡️⚔️💯🙏
Whatever works for you, but this song is about love, passion, ecstasy, sho nuff feeling good. NOT ABOUT DEATH AND DYING!
It's definitely about getting high
Just straight up iconic to listen very, very often. The O'jays does it best!!!!
You really have to be "ole" school to know the symbolism of this song. But whatever interpretation, it is timeless.❤
They captured the times of our life.
The arrangement is otherworldly bliss!! Love it
@@maddcapper4548 talking about the arrangement of the instruments not the meaning of the song.
Word.
Y’all, this song is about SEX!!! But I guess you can make it mean what you want it too!! As a child, I thought it was spiritual referring to the gates of Heaven but as I got older I realized it’s about climaxing!! 😮
Those arrangers and producers at TSOP, knew exactly what they were doing. !!!
@@nrod5336 no ma'am, The writer is referring to Wedded bliss....
An excellent delivery by the O’Jays, a romantic ballad second to none, pure, sweet, promising a better future together. Dropping two lives to form one, bound in love and living like one is in Heaven.
At least you get it's not about death and the lord the average brain dead listener who only hears a nice beat and heaven.
Lord help me 🙏🏽 this was my grandmother favorite song. Listening to this song, I can still hear my grandma singing this. I miss her so much 💔🕊
This song hits hard in 2020❤
It’s now 2022 and it’s still lit
And in 2022 now, this year has been a brutal one for me

@@janettestewart853 def buy pplppl as ppl nj ppl as
No you are not OJAYS my favorite group
No i love it
What a great band the Might Ojays, all my childhood memories wrapped up in every song!
Word.
I wish i could turn back the hands of time i would never want too go forward !
I hear you!! I feel the same!
To everyone struggling with the “lost” of a loved one, smile and remember all the good memories you’ve had with them. Please don’t be sad yet REJOICE in the transition of life! 🌅
The circle of life is VERY real. Ever experienced something that made you think of someone? Ever smell something that made you think of your grandmother? Light flicker in your house? Or even more, ever meet someone that reminded you of someone you just couldn’t put your finger on it? Children with old soul? THE CIRCLE OF LIFE love.
They are with us! Cry but enjoy their presence in your life everyday. Then, now, forever more 💜
One of the most glorious songs ever⭐⭐⭐
Ever since I was a little girl I love this song and now I’ve grown into a woman I still 😍
Takes me back to times when I was a little girl living in Soweto (South Africa) with no responsibilities, when families got together, and happily shared meals together, so much has changed now
😒
Try listening to Supreme Jubilees - It’ll all be over to get yourself through these trying times. 2020 and COVID-19 will be over soon just remember we’re in the darkness of the tunnel right now
Wow!!! South Africa is hip to the ojays. Who knew!!! WTF
Sad truth, if only we could turn back the hands of time.
Stairway To Heaven . . How I wish I could see my brother again, I would climb those stairs! The pain is so immense .... But God! Rest easy Linwood "Romeo" Richardson #neverforgotten #tears
A song is about what you or someone else interprets it to be that's what art is from artists
My dad really showed me good music as a kid now it sticks to me like my skin. I’m 27 now
I just want to cry 😭😭😭
Wish music like this could come back and take me to the good ole days.
Right! Today's music sucks
That's wassup

Just put your hand in mind...
Today i learned that this was one of my big brother's favorite songs, I didn't really know my brother because we didn't grow up together but he was a good man and today was his funeral. Blessings to all of you and if you have family you don't really know, try to get to know them.
Beautiful. ...only just beautiful...🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏❤

This song is so powerful I'm positive my mom is okay and rest of my elder relatives
Honestly I think this may be the best song ever written…
As a writer myself, I agree....
All these stories makes me grateful for my Ma and Pop more and more by the day. Death is just another part of life. Love you all, stay strong. We got this!
I’m 23 my dad died from cancer when I was 19 I still cry every time I hear it we buried him to this very song because it was his favorite

Dang, sorry for your losses, that’s umm quite a few, anybody left
This song just hits the soul just right
This Song Had Me Crying
The greatest O'Jays love song ever. Walter's smooth tenor and Eddie's powerful baritone is what makes this song great. No one else can sing it like them.
This is a song about getting it on and people think it’s a funeral song! Hahaha
Lord have mercy,for love is in heaven for you and me
My granmom passed on the 1 of this month i wish i can see her one more time this song is my favorite and it reminds me of her im still suffering with tears.
I lost my cousin yesterday and this song came to my mind. Rest In peace 🙏 🕊 cousin I love you.
I grew up on oldies love it aye
I have followed the Okays when they started in Cleveland at Leo's Casino and had to wait until the contact expired and went to TSOP and dominated R&B until they went independent . All of the original members stood out, they functioned united. Eddie put his all into being front man but let all have the spotlight. They have always been my inspiration.
THANK YOU. I keep telling people that this song is not to be played at funerals.
This song just reminds me of two people in Love
The Lord is my rock, my fortress my deliverer...my God in whom i trust my strength my buckler and the horn of my salvation my hightower...Psalm 18 2
I bawl my fuckin eyes out every time this gets played on the radio, thinking of those dear to us we’ve lost. It’s so sweet, happy and painful all at the same time, can’t explain it.
This song makes me cry. It was my Dad & my momz anthem together. They've both past on and all of my siblings. It's now just me and my precious memories
A masterpiece of all ages and many more generations to come.
