YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT, BUT HE’S BEEN MY FAVORITE ARTIST FOR MANY, MANY, MANY YEARS AND THROUGH LOTS OF TOUGH TIMES IN MY LIFE! PB is an awesome talent!
To me, real R&B music doesn't exist anymore these days. The past from the 90's and earlier will always be around but no new real R&B music is being made these days
Music has really changed. There is no more ballads that have meaning. The songs of today are savage. Don't get me wrong, there are some good ones. Different times.
I saw them in concert in Westbury Long Island it was an out of body experience. It felt like as floating. More then just a concert. Ray charles was there he performed " Georgia ". Unbelievable night.
Beautiful!! Roberta Flack is my favorite female artist of all time. Donny is one of my favorite male artist of all time. I remember watching a performance of Roberta and Peabo not long after Donny died and they were singing this song. I thought to myself that no one could fill in for Donny's part then I heard Peabo. He did it his own way and it's perfect! I still feel this way today and that was over 35 years ago. Peabo is no doubt one of the greatest R&B singers of all time in my book.
I saw Peabo Bryson in an outdoor theater near Glendale California. He walked through the audience singing during his performance. What a voice. He killed it the whole performance.
These are great voices. I have the greatest memories of this music. Not being born in the 60s and 70s isn’t a regret, but knowing this music makes me happy all life.
Roberta flack and Peabo Bryson make absolutely remarkable duets. I love this kind of team power, from the energy in their voices to the emotion they bring out. Everything is outstanding. No one does this better, we'll love you forever 💖
Awww, what talent to honor Donny in such a beautiful way! Roberta sings this so clear and sharp to the senses, Lookout Peabo, thanks for saluding the master of this song. You got your own way of making women “give in” when you sing your love songs ❤
My mother use to listen to this when I was a little boy. It brings me back and realize how the music back then was so much better. Roberta has so many great songs.
Two GOATS heavenly deliver one of the greatest duets ever written!! If you can’t sing it with the original (all hail Donny!!), than do him honor and sing it with one of the best ever!!
if I could have a choice of three singers of all times voice. Luther, Peabo and Brian mcknight. my 3 very favorite male artists. Peabo absolutely nails this song.
I am, one of my favorites. Great song to dance to, as well, as these:,,,,Stevie Wonder: or Luther Vandross (your call): Creepin', Commodores: Sweet Love, The Floaters: Float On, Bobby Caldwell: What I Won't Do for Love, George Benson: Love Ballad,,,,,,💃🕺please; after you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I seen Miss Roberta Flack at the Tangier in Akron, Ohio back in the 80's. She was a bit under the weather with upper respiratory issues and came out on stage a little late. She had so much class! She apologized and promised to make it up to us, then she put on a show I'll never forget. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
So bittersweet knowing the most people will never experience love of this kind due to the emotional immaturity brought into today's relationships. Well, at least we can love the idea of this kind of love.
Peabo Bryson is one of my favorite male artist. One of his hit song Reach for the Sky was a phenomenal hit the lyrics was incredible. The 70s sound really could touch your soul!!! Thanks Brother for your great contribution to the music industry!!! Shack
Yes, I listen daily I’m 64 yrs old and grew up on these songs, Nothing compares to the 70s & 80s music wise. I think it all makes me feel younger
62. & you're absolutely right.
Ha 4561z my number life is sweet not mud peace
I'm 65, we already know. That was music!!
57 and still loving it.
55 and my soul thrives on it
Peabo might be one of the most underrated and one of the greatest singers of all time
So very true!
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT, BUT HE’S BEEN MY FAVORITE ARTIST FOR MANY, MANY, MANY YEARS AND THROUGH LOTS OF TOUGH TIMES IN MY LIFE! PB is an awesome talent!
He's in the tevin Campbell tier
He was great I know that!
Agreed 👍🏽
Happy blessed birthday Peabo Bryson 🥰💚💛❤️💜💙we share the same birthday and it's today 4/13/24 happy blessed birthday to us🥰and Brotha Al Green
I was 6 fighting for my life ...in a hospital...Roberta Flack was all over the radio..I'll always love her as the angel she is.
Bless x
The best of the best. Those were singers!!
This the most beautiful duet 😊
@rithtealer2559 absolutely, they blended so well together
Every Flack and Bryson's duet is so magical. ❤
❤
this is real R&B not the crap they produce now a days
To me, real R&B music doesn't exist anymore these days. The past from the 90's and earlier will always be around but no new real R&B music is being made these days
YES
This song is so touchy 😢
It doesn't get any better than this. Two impeccable voices.
Foram feitos para cantarem juntos 🎉🎉
An amazing duet, pure singing without instrumental enhancement. A true Roberta Flack sound.
Music has really changed. There is no more ballads that have meaning. The songs of today are savage. Don't get me wrong, there are some good ones. Different times.
Songs today are absolutely trash!!
ALL OF THEM
I Can't name one good song that I would call good. Music died around 2012 in my opinion
......more like the turn of the 21st century.@@ninobrown5363
Peabo Bryson is and always has been a phenomenal vocalists - Donny would be proud..❤
Absolutely beautiful these two take me back to when loving someone meant you were really in love...
Yes
True that👍
Me too
That's so true those days was real love not today
i'll bet she's never sang a bad note in her life.
She s a certified school teacher. She would never fault in front of her former students,LOL.
Her musical career has spanded the test of time
The Closer I get to you is one of my favorite songs of all time
Mine too@@aramiscarreras7129
Makes my hair stand on end....❤
Today’s music can’t match music like this .I’m glad I’m 66 and lived with great music like this
Nobody could ever take Donny's place but Peabo tore it up here!!
The best song ever. Wondering who still listening songs like this one in 2024?
11 September 2024

Peabo is a vocal master and Roberta's voice is as smooth as silk!
She has the clearest silky voice. I love her! Legendary !
Peabo is the best make vocalist ever
She's a class act, giving a nod to Donny, and Peabo does the song justice
Then what did you expect from the brilliant Robert 'Peabo' Bryson.
Even her speaking voice is so sweeeet
CLASS
Peabody honestly has one if the smoothest voices in history.
She absolutely is a classy lady. 🙂🙂🙂
I miss this kind of song. The love song, the lyrics, the feelings and melody. All time classic songs are a beauty
They don't make it like this anymore
Yes we're loosing the art of gud music to "tiktok mania"😢😮
Roberta Flack is 87 now. She and Peabo were both stars, and they'll remain that way forever.
Peabo is 73.
Roberta Flack sings so beautifully and has done so over many years. Peabo accomplices her so well. A magic carpet ride to a beautiful time.
OMG...Peabo's vocals....gets me misty eyed. Just love that voice, especially with Roberta Flack.
He is one of my top favorites
I'm feeling it too Jeffery Pueblos!
So glad Peabo Bryson has released a brand new set of hits!!
Getting my copy for Christmas!
I've always loved Roberta's voice and style. She doesn't over do it or try too hard. She just sings the song.
Yes. ,Peabo Brysons sings wonderful
My best male vocalist of all time. His tone is so beautiful.
Those two singing together is like pancakes and syrup on a Saturday morning!
yes
I love your analogy!
Excellent
And bacon
And butter

Roberta Flack has a very unique & special voice- it's beautiful !
my fave in my 60 years of livin :))))
Bèautìfully done thanks😅
One word, timbre..
brings back memories when life was free, beautiful and easy
The background music along with Roberta singing her soul out make this a timeless masterpiece!
I’m 70 and I grew up in The UK. I had all Roberta Flack Albums she was the best. No one like her.
This special lady stole my heart with her velvet voice
Praying that Peabo Bryson makes a full recovery.....His voice is legendary, an amazing singer..
What's wrong with him
@@davidmmd7907 He had a mild heart attack.
top de mais !!
Hope so too, we already lose James Ingram we cant afford to lose pebo
Roberta was also unwell sometime last year I hope she fully recovered. Love them both.
Just love how Roberta nods to Peabo to finish it in perfection!
Miss the beautiful ballads and terrific duets of the 80’s!
Time seems to fly back... Love song. Greetings from Brazil
This music is real and heartfelt. Legendary!
We need it back
Amen to that Regina.
This is one of the greatest songs of all time. Two of the greatest singers of all time. And I miss Donny!!!
Beautiful!! Roberta Flack is my favorite female artist of all time. Donny is one of my favorite male artist of all time. I remember watching a performance of Roberta and Peabo not long after Donny died and they were singing this song. I thought to myself that no one could fill in for Donny's part then I heard Peabo. He did it his own way and it's perfect! I still feel this way today and that was over 35 years ago. Peabo is no doubt one of the greatest R&B singers of all time in my book.

Yes sir Peabo is one of the best singers on the Planet!! I love to hear him sing!!!!
This was my Moms song she passed 30years ago and I still remember what a blessing
Oh God bless her.
"Sweet is the gravity..." let that sink in for a moment, this song is poetry and musical genius
There's endless black people that have contributed to black success n music that hasn't been recognized!
Donny Hathaway was the man! But the only who could possibly fill in on that duet with Roberta Flack is Peabo Bryson! I accept no arguments!❤
I’ve forgotten how great this song really is. They both bleed incredible talent. I’ve got goosebumps watching and listening to this video.
They just do not make LOVE SONGS LIKE THIS ANYMORE! I love the words and the music. I LOVE THESE TWO SINGING TOGETHER.
Donny HATHAWAY is singing through Peabo Bryson here . Absolutely magnificent job on this iteration of closer I get to you .
Peabo has a beautiful voice...
Ms. Flack is a timeless beauty and her voice is so incredible. This song is an all time favorite of mine and Peabo does nice job filling in for Don.
The two most beautiful voices in the music business
Christian J 😎
Agree
My mother use to listen to this when I was a little boy. It brings me back and realize how the music back then was so much better. Roberta has so many great songs.
I grew up listening to Peabo Bryson. My dad got me listening to him. This is real soul music when you feel it.
Two GOATS heavenly deliver one of the greatest duets ever written!! If you can’t sing it with the original (all hail Donny!!), than do him honor and sing it with one of the best ever!!
I love peabo and donny, both fantastic soul voices, I hope the feeling and soul comes back to modern music,

I bet that show was still amazing.
Waving from CLE.
So bittersweet knowing the most people will never experience love of this kind due to the emotional immaturity brought into today's relationships.
Well, at least we can love the idea of this kind of love.
Peabo Bryson is one of my favorite male artist. One of his hit song Reach for the Sky was a phenomenal hit the lyrics was incredible. The 70s sound really could touch your soul!!! Thanks Brother for your great contribution to the music industry!!! Shack
This was so beautiful I had to run that back 4 times!! Man they just don't make music like this anymore.
I was born 1993, and these genre of songs were the best for me. Absolute goosebumps! The type of songs you'll want to hear from the radio ❤❤❤
The closer I get to you make such a perfect combination. Timeless indeed!
Dec 2022, dont matter what the newest hit drops .. THISSSSS SONNNNG since 1970s ... love you #RobertaFlack & #PeaboByrson x
