As the arranger and co-producer of this song for Teddy, I am so happy to see this great posting of a performance by my brother that I was unaware of. God Bless. Dexter Wansel
It's so sad a month after this concert a car acciden't changed his life forever. He was amazing. I listen and watch his videos all the time. No singer today can top him in live entertainment. What a wonderful legacy of music he left for us. R.I.P TEddy.
Seen Teddy once after the accident; ... and only wished I could have thanked him personally for the many times his music made my night pure heaven with the girl I love. Like Teddy, she's gone now also ... this music is priceless to me.
So sad that one month after this show, one of the greatest soul singers of all-time would never walk again. Teddy, may you be back on your feet in Heaven, movin' n' groovin' n' lettin' loose, makin' all the lovebirds feel the love & passion your music makes us feel everyday here on Earth. Peace & Love, Brother.
@@carolburke800 Wow! Melt the sun. Don't know about that, but he was an extraordinarily handsome man, with a gorgeous smile.. I think of that entrance he made at the Live Aid show, when he came out, looking as though he'd either come from or was headed to a GQ cover shoot, flashed that gorgeous smile of his and ... the rest, as we know, is history
You can see the passion from this man, like even without seeing this video you can feel it in the song. Songs like these are the pure essence of R&b. Bless him.
Who the hell could put a thumbs down on this?!!! This is a true artists! One of the most beautiful, powerful and soulful voices in recording history ❤️ Inspires me so much
Although I was too young to witness Teddy Pendergrass in his prime, he was the total package. His voice was as phenomenally beautiful as he was physically.
He was AWESOME! Every girl in HE wanted him and every guy wanted to be him. His voice still sends chills done my spine and his music is one of fondest HE memories.
The man is 9yrs now in heaven , soon he will be starting singing career . Blessed are those angels who will be watching him performing live . Beautiful voice Teddy had , rip
No auto tune no special effects just mr pendergrass and a microphone I was there that night what a powerful beautiful man I fell in love that night and I always will be totally stunning and that beard ❤❤❤❤❤❤
That Showtime documentary brought me here… this man was a LEGEND and I remember his music playing in my house as child on Saturday mornings… what a helluva singer he was .. live or studio
Man, if not for that tragic car accident he was involved in not too long after doing this show Teddy would've been duking it out with Luther for top spot on the R&B charts for the rest of the 80s and possibly well into the 90s. His solo career at this point was still on the rise with no real slowdown in sight. One can only imagine, though...
I am so embarrassed to say I didn’t know of this song until Mac Royals on The Voice performed this song before he was eliminated. It gave me goosebumps and was performed so beautifully that I went looking for the original version to see how he made it his own. What a blessing this song is to the world. And you Mr. Pendergrass would be so proud of how your music lives on! Rest in Peace! This was an effortless performance. Gosh, we miss music like this!
This man stands like a giant against the others the best ever to pick up a microphone love you teddy I was there that night he was mesmerising a voice like silk and sooooo handsome that smile and what a beard ❤❤❤
This song gets everytime, I can't listen to it past "Looking back over my years, I guess I've shed some tears"... I just well up....life has been a lot .. Continue to REst .. legendary TP.
Teddy feelin this.....he put up two fingers “two time loser”....grown man singing about love.....priceless May the Creator Bless Teddy Pendergrass forgive his sins and grant Brotha Teddy Paradise
heard this version in 2010, was my wedding dance song in 2013. all i can say is i'm glad it still exists on youtube to listen to. so many great memories, thank you Teddy. Rest in power.
I am 26 years old n grew up listening to this man but neva paid him ne attn until now n he was AMAZING! His voice is/was HEAVENLY, his performance, background singers, band, his emotions n the pain n his face while singing, his moves n this man was ahead of his time. There's only one Teddy P., RIP bro.
I was 12 when I started to listen to Teddy the Bear . I’m now 50 , every time I listen to his music my heart melts . They don’t make them like they used to.!!!
His music has tendency of showing example of my past relationships down falls. The songs are real and always touch home especially when I am upbeat in my relationship. Thanks TED AND MAY SOUL RIP.....
We miss you TP. He was one of our most prolific masculine perfomers of our time. The true definition of what MANHOOD should be. This is straight OLD SCHOOL.
WOW! The few and true remaining R&B artists need to sing from the heart; with passion! Maybe we will be blessed again with real music and performances!!!
His documentary on showtime is 🔥 ..glad I got to see him in concert one time..amazing voice, great performer....we screamed a lot. I remember that..🎼🎼🎼
What a real and true performer, I wish I had the chance to see him live. Saw so many in the past Heatwave and the Spinners are up there. The real thing that stands out is the performance, its so honest.
No one has ever come close to interpret lyrics like this unforgettable artist did, projecting so much raw Passion & Ecstasy with his velvet voice... TEDDY PENDERGRASS ,RIP
jamais plus il y aura des artistes comme le genial teddy pendergrass une voix fabuleuse un artiste et un chanteur divin repose en paix teddy la classe à l'etat pure et merci pour tout ce que vous avez donner à la soul music!!!

Be very proud. He was an amazing performer with an incredible voice. We don't have those anymore today. God bless you..
Not a singer in the present day could match this man’s voice wow!!

It's so sad a month after this concert a car acciden't changed his life forever. He was amazing. I listen and watch his videos all the time. No singer today can top him in live entertainment. What a wonderful legacy of music he left for us. R.I.P TEddy.
Prince…performances were EPIC
There will NEVER BE ANOTHER TEDDY 🐻
I will ALWAYS MISS MY TEDDY BEAR
Teddy and Luther V are the best of all time
Jesus Christ I am 59 years old and his voice still melts me down like ice cream in bright sunshine. It's even worse when he talks... ❤❤❤
Our Lord and Savior.
Oh, he is fine, fine, fine. Beautiful voice.❤
Who's with me crossing over to the year 2024..... Rest in peace to those who are no more
My dad would play all his songs on repeat. Miss my dad. ❤
With his music you going to be with your dad again. The music can transport us to anywhere
Teddy was such a fine ass man 😍. May his soul rest in peace.
please dont say ass that y we loss all this talent child. that the term the gays use.
@@superbee5640 What???
He definitely was fine...my Gawd
Teddy had some of the best background vocalists in the business. They are superb in this live performance.
Ààaaaaaàaà
Seen Teddy once after the accident; ... and only wished I could have thanked him personally for the many times his music made my night pure heaven with the girl I love. Like Teddy, she's gone now also ... this music is priceless to me.

@@anitabaker8259 Anita Baker is yet another beautiful memory of pure loving talent❤
RIP to all the fallen legends. What a voice, what a soul.
Ok
Htankyou
No
Now
Definitely-Teddy was the best tho NO doubt
I miss the good old days when you went to a concert with real singing and real musicians.
Teddy Pendergrass was one of the best singers of his time. Left us with his brilliant vocals but sadly way too soon.
I agree the same.
..of "his" time. Who in the last 30 years, matches of even better? I will wait.
He had such an incredibly rich voice and stage presence. 😊
So sad that one month after this show, one of the greatest soul singers of all-time would never walk again. Teddy, may you be back on your feet in Heaven, movin' n' groovin' n' lettin' loose, makin' all the lovebirds feel the love & passion your music makes us feel everyday here on Earth. Peace & Love, Brother.
passionate,handsome , talented... look at those teeth..yooo..
I'm 22 and I can say he melts me like a real black gentleman.

His smile can melt the sun 🌞

Yes to everything you said except one thing. This is SOUL music
Who the hell could put a thumbs down on this?!!! This is a true artists! One of the most beautiful, powerful and soulful voices in recording history ❤️ Inspires me so much
Tone deaf, know nothing but autotune collaborations, & to top it off their use to "hog callers" not singers🤫🤫
Asshole@@ibcalm24
Although I was too young to witness Teddy Pendergrass in his prime, he was the total package. His voice was as phenomenally beautiful as he was physically.
Look at how when this man just opens his mouth that voice comes out so naturally. WOW!! And his female background vocalist's were flawless!!!
Who is watching Teddy in 2022. Amazing man loved him so much 😘😘
He was AWESOME! Every girl in HE wanted him and every guy wanted to be him. His voice still sends chills done my spine and his music is one of fondest HE memories.
If you dont remember Teddy Pendergrass from 80's you are missing out on an AWESOME artist
Nope Gary I DID NOT want Teddy -- I wanted Marvin Gaye 😊June 4,2020
@Sheila Davis Luther Vandross for me. Sad that all three are gone. But at least we still have Lionel.
Game Recognize Game.
I still want him 😂
This guy could sing. He was even better in person.
You’re so lucky to have been able to see him in person damn
You just don't hear these types of songs anymore
wolf skull: These was some songs that you can sit back and listen to and understand these was some good songs backthin?
If I could sing i would lol. I just write 😂
@@Bretheranden,
@@Bretheranden could you play confunkshun greatest hits
Right! Songs today either have violence or under dressed people.
Man these guys are legends. I am lucky to have grown up with this kind of music
Chilling to think, only a month later he would be paralyzed in a car accident. He was such an amazing talent. Philly soul!
Yeah he was, very sad, but didn't stop my man from singing! ;)
LEGEND2018
Drew Hannush fucking legend ✌️
I was there. Amazing night it was. Privileged and blessed to see him live at his prime.
The man is 9yrs now in heaven , soon he will be starting singing career . Blessed are those angels who will be watching him performing live . Beautiful voice Teddy had , rip
Teddy was THE man
TRUTH!!
Yeah he was Nick Atkins
Not too many singers can perform like the legends from the past.
Today's singers: "I need autotune."
Teddy: "Someone give me a stage."
No auto tune no special effects just mr pendergrass and a microphone I was there that night what a powerful beautiful man I fell in love that night and I always will be totally stunning and that beard ❤❤❤❤❤❤
This guy is the coolest Black man I 've ever seen. This white suits look good on him. He can sing from his soul.
Some artists sound even better live than on recording. TP was one of them. This man had SOUL!!! What a performance!
I've ALWAYS loved this song timeless masterpiece!!!

Been my favorite singer since I was 13y.o bout my 1st Teddy album when I was 15.. I'm 59 now and still Jam with Teddy all the time..
His presence is astonishing
RIP Teddy Pendergrass Gone But Never forgotten 🙏💕💕💕💕
How can anybody give this a thumbs down ???? The Great Soul singer he is unquestionable
Their use to "hog calling" not singing 🤫🤫
New fan here i love his music
Teddy was the man, one of the best soul voices, the girls would swoon over his sexy voice. Love his singing style.
even wen he speak, it sounds sexy
@@empressonikkia3492 do9g
Straightupshooter: I suspect that it was more than just his "sexy voice" that girls swooned over.
Diane Wentz and what would that be? Do tell. 😀
@@Straightupshooter His "presence"
This is hands down my favorite Teddy song and I still play it all these years later I first bought the album on a cassette tape😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
This live performance blows me away the more I come back and watch it. Especially TKO
God, you were everything Teddy. Then and now. Authenticity in live form.
Watching Teddy's live videos should be mandatory training for every present day R&B "singer"!!...The Real Deal!
Agreed Totally 💯 !!!
There is only one and only TEDDY!!! YOUR MEMORIES WILL. Last forever .
GROWN UP MUSIC!...TRUE R&B!!
This man stands like a giant against the others the best ever to pick up a microphone love you teddy I was there that night he was mesmerising a voice like silk and sooooo handsome that smile and what a beard ❤❤❤
SPEECHLESS! NOTHING LIKE A BEAUTIFUL BLACK MAN ! LAWD HOW MERCY!
Who is listening and enthralled in 2022..nostalgic and never ending moments...
My favorite singer of all time. Theodore Pendergrass.
Nobody has the vocals Teddy had, that just to show, he was rare. RIP Mr. Pendergrass.
Watched a documentary recently (through many tears) in the UK about Teddy - my goodness, how we miss true artists like this ...
Already was in ♥️ with this song, however this live version is even better
Truly a blessing from the most high....there is absolutely nobody that can say otherwise we love you tedy rest in powerful peace
Any man who brought his girl to this show knew damn well he was going to get lucky that night!
PAISLEY PRINCESS I'm totally pregos after watching this
what are you meant? what the connection?
Just Human baby making songs
Teddy got it ready,all you gotta go is close the deal.
Right, huh ?? Terri Walker
man this guy was and still is "the real deal" great performance, may God bless his soul...
This song gets everytime, I can't listen to it past "Looking back over my years, I guess I've shed some tears"... I just well up....life has been a lot .. Continue to REst .. legendary TP.
* gets to me
Absolute proof that it doesn't hurt to let a drummer sing lead vocals once in a while - Teddy, Marvin, Joe, Phil etc :-]
Karen Carpenter too ;)
@@truenorth7949 of course, thank you. Were you ever. on the DFO forum, I was there as 'kerope'?
cant forget! Jeffery Osbourne from LTD who went solo.
Still to this day I see Teddy Pendergrass and fall in love all over again.
when I'm lost for love listening to oldies help me make sense of it all
Was there in 82 crazy voice no one is near this guy the words you wrote are spot on they were great times
I feel you, same my way, every body goes through same thing in one way or another,
Teddy feelin this.....he put up two fingers “two time loser”....grown man singing about love.....priceless
May the Creator Bless Teddy Pendergrass forgive his sins and grant Brotha Teddy Paradise
If these artist from back in the day could get paid like this generation today it would have been well deserved
one of my most favorite singers of all times. what a powerful voice.
Teddy's speaking truth and people in the audience are frontin' like they've never been hurt.
What a voice, what a beautiful guy, what a real shame we lost a fantastic guy. Always love him, the only guy that can my me cry listening to him. ❤
This man was absolutely one of a kind and so charismatic I wish I could have seen him perform R.I.P Teddy 🐐
heard this version in 2010, was my wedding dance song in 2013. all i can say is i'm glad it still exists on youtube to listen to. so many great memories, thank you Teddy. Rest in power.
BEST LIVE R&B / SOUL SINGER EVER .
Totally agree. His voice sounds so good live that he didn't need the studio to shine. Teddy had real chops!
mobus1603 So agree!! I am listening...not looking.. he was 'the deal'!! BEST SINGER of SOUL!!
I loved Teddy I had a chance to meet him in Detroit 40 years ago love his music
Still here in 2019! We just love the Brother....Teeeeeddy....Teeeeddy...!

I love Teddy Pendergrass...what a voice. Thank you, NEILTHFC.
There is no song harder than this...gets me everytime!!!
Wow! Teddy was in a whole other place with this one and he took me right along with him! The man is uniquely talented!
I keep coming back to this video. Raw soul by a great singer. Teddy always gave 100%.
Pure Class...No autotune required
What a singer.
The year I was born!👀
Folks who attended this concert were lucky for sure
Fantastic voice!!! A beautiful song. 💙
I was 12 when I started to listen to Teddy the Bear . I’m now 50 , every time I listen to his music my heart melts . They don’t make them like they used to.!!!
We lost this soul icon 10 years ago on this day 💔
Masterful performance right here...Teddy 'Bear', your legacy lives on!!!
never again will another ARTIST as great bless a stage .. my generation is lost without Artists like Teddy .. Rest In Peace
The epitome of what a recording artist should be.
His music has tendency of showing example of my past relationships down falls. The songs are real and always touch home especially when I am upbeat in my relationship. Thanks TED AND MAY SOUL RIP.....
Rest well Mr. Teddy Pendergrass 🙏🏾 🏝
