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 🫶🏿
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
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
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, 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".
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.”
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 😢
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
Watching live performances, I always enjoy seeing the artist put unique nuances on the song, giving you a new version to listen to. Leave alone the piano, which has such a different (but still awesome) sound, the way he says "Some things will neeever chaaAAaange." at 0:55 is a good example.
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
"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.
Bobby Caldwell is easily one of the 10 most underrated artists ever period, badd to the bone
agree!
There was no one like this man. He was unique. Rest in peace, brother.
Rest in Peace Bobby Caldwell ~1951-2023🌹
One of the most underatted singers in history
Tears always drop when I listen to this
Sameee omg so heartfelt
I feel the same way!!
Me too.
Tears flowing 😢 beautiful song
Same
Just finished smoking a cigarette outside listening to this and crying my heart out. RIP Mister AOR
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
Rest Easy Bobby 🙏🏾 your beautiful music will live on in our hearts.
He is grossly underrated. I love his work.
This brother is so talented!!
Agreed, he says at the start that he wrote this on his guitar and he goes and plays this on the piano. Rare talent, Bobby Caldwell.
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."
I'm sitting here crying my God what talent that voice RIP . Thank You. Sincerely.
Such a fantastic version… the talent is otherworldly. RIP Bobby, thank you for the music
So underrated... he is amazing....
He is living legend, my favorite artist from south korea
Even alone, without acoustics or back up subnets, he killed it. His voice is everything.
RIP to the one and only
The way he comes in right after he is off key and then crushes the entire performance with so much feeling. Incredible.
rest easy bobby 😓🙏🕊️🔥
2020 I’m still here 🖤 Bobby’s a genius
2021 💙💙💙
2022 here!
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!
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.

Since today it hits a different way... Rest in Peace, Mr. Caldwell. Thank you so much for truly unforgettable and soulful music.
RIP Mr. Caldwell and thanks for the wonderful timeless songs.
R.I.P legend 😪
Rest in power king .. forever a legend 👑🙏🏻
One of the sexiest tunes ever. So beautifully played. A rare find
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
Amen! 😇🙏
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

One of my favorite Bobby Caldwell songs
Awesome live performance. R.I.P. Bobby Caldwell 😢 🙏
This is my absolute favorite. Listening to this all night a hundred times ❤️🔥
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".
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 love Bobby Caldwell. You will be greatly missed 😭
It's nice to hear grown-up music again.
Wow I’m on a binge of Bobby since he passed and his live performances are incredible!! 🙏🏽
I am still in tears I just randomly reached out to him and his wife the day of his death this is too much for me rest in peace my friend
I swear with that voice this guy could still get it even today! Silky smooth and soulful, what a talent!
Bobby Caldwell, the brotha's musick is timeless.
Always so moved and I've only watched it about 500 times
You can almost hear his soul. Can't explain it but you can.
R.I.P. my brother!!!!
Bobby is a serious cat 🐈 🎩👌🏿.He deserves every musical accolade. 💫🏆💯🚀
Blue eyed soul baby; the first time I went to See him live, His performance was flawless! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
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.”
Wish I had seen him …feel horrible that I became immersed too late!
Bobby will forever be one of the greatest
Incredible composer, musician, and performer. Rest well Bobby
He still sounds sooo good!
Damn he still got it at that age 😍
I can't believe he's gone.. I was hoping to meet him someday, tell him how much he's inspired me
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.
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
R.I.P Bobby..... I miss you, I love you forever!!
what a gem
That voice...! Most singers would kill to keep their voices as fine through time as Bobby here. A beatiful man.
This man is my hero
Mr Caldwell is a effin LEGEND!!
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
Oh how I love this song

At 0:33 he smiles like, "Oh, yeah. They're gonna' like this part. They ain't ready for this part."
I know, love this guys voice.
So a brilliant talented man. I encourage all to check out his incredible catalog
2022 and this is still bumping through speakers. Bobby the great!

In 1979, Billboard Magazine nominated Caldwell for best new black R&B artist of the year
RIP the artist
I get chills anytime I hear his music.
And to think this was made into a beat that will always be timeless ( sky’s the limit )
So soulful. What a voice.
Such a beautiful song. And too everyone, “the sky is the limit” -Notorious BIG
I've loved this artist and this song since I was a girl. I am so in love with this song, still.❤🔥🔥
Rest In Peace Bobby 💔
