    No background vocalists to harmonize or help correct pitch, just a man with a band behind him whose sole purpose right here is to accentuate and amplify his voice. Completely alone and open to all of the imperfections of a live performance and he fucking nailed it. This is one of the most impressive live vocal performances I’ve ever seen.

      ​@@smarroy Settle down, Karen. I'm not sure which one of us you were referring to, so I'll assume you were directing your idiocy at me. First of all, NONE of us suggested that "the new generation is trash" - that is what YOU read. Secondly, I personally have been involved with music since the early 1970s and enjoy every genre of music from Bluegrass to Death Metal and everything in between. You sound like a whiney little 20-something year old who just got his feelings hurt because someone said something bad about Miley Cyrus or Eminem. Grow up. Music is subjective. My point was merely that back when Al Green, and others during his era recorded their music, there was no such thing as "autotune" and similar things that make crappy people sound amazing. My favorite music spans dozens of generations. I LOVE classical, big band, ragtime, jazz, dixieland, funk, and many many more. I doubt you can say the same.

    Happy 76th Birthday today April 13, 2022 to the great Al Green, born April 13, 1946.
    Al Green is one of the most enduring soul singers of the rock era, and is considered by many the most important male singer since Sam Cooke. He has also been referred to as "The Last of the Great Soul Singers." His early 70s work on Hi Records sounds as good today as it did then, and his legend has continued to grow over the past quarter century even as he generally turned his back on popular music.
    Green is the winner of 11 Grammy Awards, including the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. He has also received the BMI Icon award and is a Kennedy Center Honors recipient. He was included in the Rolling Stone list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time, ranking at No. 65, as well as its list of the 100 Greatest Singers, at No. 14.

    LYRICS:
    I'm, I'm so in love with you
    Whatever you want to do
    Is all right with me
    'Cause you make me feel so brand new
    And I want to spend my life with you
    Let me say that since, baby
    Since we've been together
    Ooh
    Loving you forever
    Is what I need
    Let me be the one you come running to
    I'll never be untrue
    Ooh baby
    Let's, let's stay together (Together)
    Loving you whether, whether
    Times are good or bad, happy or sad
    Ooh, ooh, yeah
    Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
    Why, somebody, why people break-up
    Oh, turn around and make-up?
    I just can't deceive
    You'd never do that to me (Would you, baby?)
    Stayin' around you is all I see
    Let's, we oughta stay together (Together)
    Loving you whether, whether
    Times are good or bad, happy or sad, come on
    Let's, let's stay together
    Loving you whether, whether
    Times are good or bad, happy or sad
