I grew up listening to some of his music. I'm 49. I will always love his music. I'm a black man who will tell u this, he wasa musical genius!! Plenty of rap songs have his music as samples!! I cry sometimes when I hear his music. Makes me think about my parents.
He made it look so effortless, so graceful and natural yet so carefully mastered and perfectly crafted. He was a true artist and creative genius. His legacy and the gifts he left with us will never be forgotten🕯❤️🩹🕊🐐 Rest in Peace Bobby 🫶🏿
My 6 year old wears a dress shirt and a tie and a brim and puts Bobby the man Caldwell on repeat and mirrors his every move. I have a whole new appreciation for this man and his music. This version is Too Cold. RIP, dear brother. Your music lives on, even in the children.
Well that's your opinion. I love Bobby don't get me wrong but there are some artists out there male who can match him in town like Al Jarrow making rest in peace along. With Mr. Caldwell who just recently passed away they're amazing artists out there who can sing their asses off trust me and that's your opinion but. You're biased? But like I said Bobby caught well we'll always hold a place in my heart. I am so sad and hurt to find out that he died. Today and I'm also sad that he died the way he did because it was needless it. Did not have to happen the drugs that he was taking to help him were the drugs that killed him and it was a slow painful death
Bobby Caldwell, is undoubtedly one of the smoothest singer's and musicians to have ever graced the stage. What an amazing and gifted musician. Every song, that he ever wrote, was pleasing to the ear. Rest in beautiful peace, your Royal Smoothness.
I worked in radio for over 40 years and many times it's Program Directors that miss songs like this, really a shame how so many great tunes don't get the spins due to a few opinions that are coerced by "perks".
If you're acknowledging Mr. Caldwell's lack of accolades let that be a sign of the depth of competition in his Era. He was a real troubadour! Thank You, Sir.🫡
I am a melaninated/carbon rich male but I've got to give the OG europoid brother his flowers and propers! He had hella soul & swag! I am a seventies baby and I grew up listening and influenced by his music which my late father Joe Scott was an unsung Jazz Rythym & Blues Musician Songwriter Producer himself major salute/shout outs!
Bobby Caldwell got those easygoing smooth jams that just have ya cruising down the highway zoning to the vibes. My Flame is one of my fav before bed songs! Just relaxing and smooth! ✊🏾🖤
My all time fav Caldwell gem….I wrote this song on the guitar 🎸 he says as plays a perfect piano 🎹 rendition…rip…another musical iconic legend passes away at a relatively young age 😢
how come only Soul music does this? I don't see anyone saying anything about the other music genre's "oh yeah he's one of the best afro classical musicians" or " i love me some blue eyed rap"
@@Red4350 Because R&B was known as “race music” back in the day, basically black popular music; so when white people sing black music, it’s “blue eyed.”
SO UPSET HE WAS AFFECTED BY THAT ANTIBIOTIC AND IT CAUSED HIM SUCH PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL HEARTACHE. GOOD FOR HIM TO HAVE KEPT O.N GOING. HE SHOULD BE RECOGNIZED AS AN OUTSTANDING ARTIST AND RECEIVE THAT RECOGNITION. RIP BOBBY . THANKS FOR THE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC, LYRICS, AND VOICE. ❤
What a great singer he is! Sings with ease and that is not an easy feat after a lifetime of singing. He is 60 at the time this was aired and still has all the high notes. He really knows his craft! Awesome!
Beautiful album takes me to a place in my mind dark yet colorful place on the road driving a 2 seater with my true love in the car watching the moon R.i.p Bobby
As an overlooked singer + pianist I truly cried listening to this extremely talented white man that God blessed himself. He don't care what color you are...#AMEN
The way he comes in right after he is off key and then crushes the entire performance with so much feeling. Incredible.
it's a disgrace Mr. Caldwell never won a Grammy Award.. they should give him a lifetime achievement recognition or something
Yes, they should!
god bless you for this one..
so agree
Grammy award full crap they never really like soul song
Man, Grammy Award do not deserve his song. We all know that.
I'm glad that people like him don't get Grammy Award. They are out of this world, and their level can't be measured by silly award like Grammy
Bobby Caldwell is easily one of the 10 most underrated artists ever period, badd to the bone
agree!
❤️🙏🏾
"I wrote this one on guitar".. but I'll just kill it here in piano! WOW dude is a musical genius!
Daniel Victor lmfao facts
True story.
@@FrankietheLawDog lmfao
Lol he is alot of people dnt know how many modern artist sampled his classic masterpeices.
That's what I'm sayin!!!
Just finished smoking a cigarette outside listening to this and crying my heart out. RIP Mister AOR
What you said is totally me! When i read it i was looking up to the person who posted it cause it could have been me on a drunk night! RIP BOBBY!
thats a mood right there
Rest in Peace Bobby Caldwell ~1951-2023🌹
One of the most underatted singers in history
I grew up listening to some of his music. I'm 49. I will always love his music. I'm a black man who will tell u this, he wasa musical genius!! Plenty of rap songs have his music as samples!! I cry sometimes when I hear his music. Makes me think about my parents.
It’s difficult for me to listen to the entire studio version of this song without crying.
@@lmitchell3604 the original is bananas.
Biggie sampled this very song!
I’d never heard this before his Unsung episode. The SAMPLE 😮
Beautiful song
I'm Asian and for me his music truly embodies what beautiful music can do to transcend any boundaries or shackles we have on this earth
There was no one like this man. He was unique. Rest in peace, brother.
He made it look so effortless, so graceful and natural yet so carefully mastered and perfectly crafted. He was a true artist and creative genius. His legacy and the gifts he left with us will never be forgotten🕯❤️🩹🕊🐐 Rest in Peace Bobby 🫶🏿
Seems he was mostly big in Japan. Maybe he lived over there
Very well-stated "luv."
Rest Easy Bobby 🙏🏾 your beautiful music will live on in our hearts.

Thank you youtube!
I can't believe he didn't get the recognition he deserved.
Such a fantastic version… the talent is otherworldly. RIP Bobby, thank you for the music
Tears always drop when I listen to this
Sameee omg so heartfelt
I feel the same way!!
Me too.
Tears flowing 😢 beautiful song
Same
He is grossly underrated. I love his work.
I'm sitting here crying my God what talent that voice RIP . Thank You. Sincerely.
Even alone, without acoustics or back up subnets, he killed it. His voice is everything.
That voice...! Most singers would kill to keep their voices as fine through time as Bobby here. A beatiful man.
RIP Mr. Caldwell and thanks for the wonderful timeless songs.
So underrated... he is amazing....
He is living legend, my favorite artist from south korea
Since today it hits a different way... Rest in Peace, Mr. Caldwell. Thank you so much for truly unforgettable and soulful music.
No one, I mean no one holds a candle to this man Bobby Caldwell. What style and grace. he is an amazing performer and an amazing man!

R.I.P Bobby. Your beautiful lyrics touched hundreds of millions, and many generations.
This is my absolute favorite. Listening to this all night a hundred times ❤️🔥
Bobby Caldwell touches my heart ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗 💘 😊
Wow I’m on a binge of Bobby since he passed and his live performances are incredible!! 🙏🏽
One of my favorite Bobby Caldwell songs
One of the sexiest tunes ever. So beautifully played. A rare find
Awesome live performance. R.I.P. Bobby Caldwell 😢 🙏

I swear with that voice this guy could still get it even today! Silky smooth and soulful, what a talent!
2020 I’m still here 🖤 Bobby’s a genius
2021 💙💙💙
2022 here!
R.I.P legend 😪
ALWAYS MY FAVORITE BY HIM SO UNDERRATED BUT BEAUTIFUL SONG!
Ikr! This song was so underrated 😭
100% agree!!!
This song just sounds so good even in Piano 🤌 it’s spectacular
RIP to the one and only
Oh how I love this song
He was so humble. A charming, gifted, warm and delightful man.
I came back to rewatch this masterpiece and will always come back. I’ve heard you passed Bobby, it’s my favourite song of yours. Thank you. I love you
Rest in power king .. forever a legend 👑🙏🏻
If you're acknowledging Mr. Caldwell's lack of accolades let that be a sign of the depth of competition in his Era. He was a real troubadour! Thank You, Sir.🫡
In 1979, Billboard Magazine nominated Caldwell for best new black R&B artist of the year
Jesus christ his voice is incredible
I love Bobby Caldwell. You will be greatly missed 😭
I seriously never get why he didn't go down as another Sinatra
I honestly like Bobby more. He's my favorite "crooner", if you will.
Because he's in a class all his own...
If there's a new Ratpack he's the leader
Head and shoulders above Sinatra. Not even in the same class. Bobby is a cool cat. Dope music.
EzaVinylAddict wtf did you just say?
I am a melaninated/carbon rich male but I've got to give the OG europoid brother his flowers and propers! He had hella soul & swag! I am a seventies baby and I grew up listening and influenced by his music which my late father Joe Scott was an unsung Jazz Rythym & Blues Musician Songwriter Producer himself
major salute/shout outs!
How does this man STAY under the radar tho!!!!??? I will never understand it 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
those in the know know. that's what's important.
I just wish he coulda smelled the roses and garnered the appreciation when he was still with us smh
@@regalsimpson998 absolutely. he deserves a posthumous lifetime achievement grammy.
It’s prolly gonna happen 100 percent
@@regalsimpson998 If the recording academy has any sense left...big if!
Bobby Caldwell got those easygoing smooth jams that just have ya cruising down the highway zoning to the vibes. My Flame is one of my fav before bed songs! Just relaxing and smooth! ✊🏾🖤
I know right! Last year i discovered this song, and that was one of my highlights of last summer
Bobby is a serious cat 🐈 🎩👌🏿.He deserves every musical accolade. 💫🏆💯🚀
Incredible composer, musician, and performer. Rest well Bobby
rest easy bobby 😓🙏🕊️🔥
You can almost hear his soul. Can't explain it but you can.
I know what you mean. It’s because he’s lived what he writes.
It’s because he was also playing the guitar parts, pure soul down to the bone, R.I.P. BC 😢
Bobby Caldwell, the brotha's musick is timeless.
Always so moved and I've only watched it about 500 times
He still sounds sooo good!
My all time fav Caldwell gem….I wrote this song on the guitar 🎸 he says as plays a perfect piano 🎹 rendition…rip…another musical iconic legend passes away at a relatively young age 😢
Blue eyed soul baby; the first time I went to See him live, His performance was flawless! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Damn he still got it at that age 😍
R.I.P Bobby..... I miss you, I love you forever!!

Legend does not describe the brilliance of Mr. Caldwell.
Rip bobby my favourite singer ❤

2022 and this is still bumping through speakers. Bobby the great!
Masterpiece
Underrated… thank u for this masterpiece
I get chills anytime I hear his music.
What a gem! I’m actually pissed that he passed due to a stupid antibiotic. I don’t do antibiotics. No way. He should still be here on earth.
