I must say that Earth and Fire were and still is one of my favourite bands. I am 71 years old and their music is just out of this world. I love the attire for this concert.
You were one in a Trillion Mr. Maurice White. Earth Wind and Fire will always be the Best!! Thank you for getting me thru cancer treatments!! My LOVE Forever! Can't wait till June Earth Wind and Fire coming to Cincinnati!!
Hit single for Earth, Wind and Fire in 1979. An indisputable milestone in American R&B, winner of the Grammy for Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group. This is one heck of a live performance. Chills and spine tingles at minute 4!
Being a new fact I just discovered, I'm surprised, but not surprised this song brought two Grammys. I used to think this song is kinda underrated..till I noticed the audience's reception whenever they brought up this song to perform. This song is just special to me because it resonates with my spirit. It's even more special as it did the magic bringing the Grammys.
THIS is my MOST FAVORITE group of all time! They are the EPITOMY of "harmonizing, lyrical and composition deliciousness"- completely FOOD FOR THE SOUL!!!! Re: this performance...Maurice's white pants tho'...he's workin' the pelvis! Those moves are so contagious!!! LOVE!!!
Back in the early 90's I was 16 and just graduated from music school ( that's the way we called it in Russia ) Western music was becoming freely accessible and thats when I got a hold of a tape of EWandF. I was in shock aftef first song played-this song. I couldn't believe that vocals such as these were possible, I didn't know who the singers were, I didn't know if they were white or black or Asian or aliens-i just fell in love with this band instantly. Then after coming to the States I bought everything these guys ever recorded. I have read about these musicians and got to know them, but the most important lesson that I learned was-true music that's created by true artist makes races and all differences disappear, and that's what let's your sole fly-the feeling of oneness. We are all one.
Kile Slice Yes Kile. The beauty of music is that it transcends all man made constructs of race. class. or gender! The musicians currency IS CHOPS! If you have "CHOPS", you have it all!!! Earth, Wind and Fire have CHOPS!!!!!!
The U.S.A. won the Cold War....and, I could not imagine living in the U.S.S.R.....that would have been Hell on Earth. When growing in the U.S.A., I always felt very sorry and sad for the "Soviet people". That must have been like living in one big prison on Earth.
Maurice White and Earth Wind Fire was the Whole PACKAGE...Years of practice and ..dedication to EXCELLENCE in Music........I love them, a one of kind in a Galaxy of MILLIONS!
We all were so blessed ! We had the real, REAL MUSIC ! Little did we know, that it would go away ! DEAR LORD GOD, I THANK YOU THAT I COULD BE PART OF THIS AMAZING HISTORY !!! #Love #Peace
Nostalgic- the charming innocence and curiosity of my childhood. To sing and dance as well as my mother, to wear her heels and jam to such soul- beautiful, wholesome music
I started following EWF in High School in the early 1970's. Our Community would Charter a Bus to go see them in Concert on Long Island or in Manahattan. I have seen them LIVE more than any other group. Probably 10 or so times over the years. I have never been disappointed. Their Energy brings people together. The Reception they received in this Japan Concert is very telling. Their appeal is INTERNATIONAL. R.I.P. Brother Maurice. The World is quite a bit Darker without you...... Thank you EWF!
This is what I call music. Thank you Earth, Wind and Fire and David Foster for bringing such great entertainment to the lives of millions around the world.
This to me is one of their VERY BEST Songs! I grew up with them and from the first time i heard their music I just LOVED IT! I'm a Life-Long Fan of EW&F!!!
In the summer of '80, I saw EWF in St. Louis-----------THIS was the 2nd encore, & it brought the house down. People were singing ------crying-------waving their arms---------I sat there, just swaying to the music, knowing I was in heaven on earth. -------------Wolfsky9
I saw another video on TH-cam today where David Foster praised and gave Maurice White so much credit for being one of music's greatest gifts. I was moved when I heard that!
I had the privilege to see EWF live 4 times and even today, I have not been to a live show that comes anywhere near to the pure quality and musical ability of these guys. the slow groove at the start of this as Maurice works his magic on the crowd is as good as it ever gets !
Someone who has been able to compose this kind of beautiful music, that touches the soul and heart, must be no doubt, in a very beautiful place in heaven. Now certainly is singing with the angels! ... Thank you Maestro Maurice White for your wonderful music and art!, she has accompanied us throughout our lives, and has been part of the most beautiful soundtrack, along with other great artists. Rest in Peace. God Bless You!!
Love love love this song. Love Earth, Wind and Fire - one of my favorite bands of all time! RIP Maurice - one of the world's greatest of all time legends.
Quem sabe, faz ao vivo sempre❤️ Cresci ouvindo meus irmãos, meus pais curtindo essas músicas e sou apaixonada literalmente por eles❤️❤️❤️❤️ Queria muito ir a um show deles, wow😍😍😍😜❤️
+Anki Hansen David Foster is the greatest composer for the next 1000 of years. He is amazing, I had the chance to meet him in Charlotte, NC. When I saw him, I was mute, could not communicate a word to him until he left. He said to invite me in his shows, I got overwhelmed by his presence.
A chillin' intro! You know, sometimes the live version of songs turn out to be better than the original. Overall, an amazing performance :D Hope to see them live one day :I
Grew up on this and countless number of ik school artist it stuck with me this is the kinda music that youth of today should be listening to not all the bs that's on the scene now
"After the Love Has Gone" is a 1979 hit single for Earth, Wind & Fire, written by David Foster, Jay Graydon, and Bill Champlin for the album I Am. It peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100. (Wikipedia...) Earth, Wind & Fire member Verdine White revealed that "After the Love Has Gone" was one of their most difficult songs to record: "The track was based on a vibe. We cut it about six, seven times, and Maurice just said, "No, it's not right yet. We'll come back and get it tomorrow. It's not right yet". And then one day we nailed it, and it was right. The way it felt. It sounded like Earth, Wind & Fire". Id.
R.I.P. Maurice, we' ll never forget you
Never . .
I must say that Earth and Fire were and still is one of my favourite bands. I am 71 years old and their music is just out of this world. I love the attire for this concert.
Nobody could sing this song but Maurice white may god rest his soul rest in paradise ewf forever
No words. ....There is no band& music like this anymore...
R.I.P. Maurice - Thank you for so many great songs
You were one in a Trillion Mr. Maurice White. Earth Wind and Fire will always be the Best!! Thank you for getting me thru cancer treatments!! My LOVE Forever! Can't wait till June Earth Wind and Fire coming to Cincinnati!!
