On March 20, 2020, after a lengthy illness, Mr. Lee Pittman, whose angelic voice is so prominently featured on this song, joined the ancestors. About two weeks before he departed this earth, I asked him if he had fond memories of the recording session that produced this song. He did. I asked how many takes it took to lay it down. He smiled and said, "Just one." I was privileged to share the stage with Lee, several times, and for that , I am eternally grateful, but mostly, I am glad that I got to know the man behind the sound. A man that I was introduced to musically in 1973; the year of this songs release, (I was 13 years old), and personally, when I was about 35. Please, remember him kindly and keep his music alive.
Thank you, thank you brother for shedding light on this B E A U T I F U L song and title that I just stumbled on yesterday. Even though I heard three brothas krooning it (acapella) walking the concrete corridors of a State Penn, in 1977. I just thought they made it up on-the-fly. But low and behold, ironically, from time-to-time, I would "try n sing" to (myself), a small snippet of what I remembered "..,though the first time I met you, love was such a silly game." Rest in "Soul Heaven," Lee Pittman. Again, thanks, Bro. Banks.
In the year 2000, Felix Hernandez used to play this frequently on his "Rhythm Revue" program here in NYC/NJ, and when that flute would come on - da-da-DA-da-da-da - it honestly felt like flowers blooming in Spring. I LOVED this song, and I could never remember the name of it. I've been looking for it forEVER. This is my first time hearing it since 2000, it just came up on my TH-cam feed. I can only imagine the memories it must bring back for someone who was old enough in 1973 to hear it on the radio, since I was 3 years old. Thank you for posting this, and my sincere condolences for the loss of your friend. He was a wonderful singer.
These guys are from Baltimore. I talked to 4 of the 5 of them this year. I grew up with their main Lead Singer Lee Pitman, and their Bass Herman Gainer. I was good friends with the whole group which also included Freddie Harper, Bobby Guy and Kenny Sawyer (who wrote many of their songs). I used to hang around with these guys in the 70s when they were doing cabarets around the Baltimore-Washington area. They are all still alive but do not sing together anymore. Lee leads it, Kenny wrote it.
It's January 2020 and I am STILL listening to this jam right here. I am partial to the 70s, and believe they birthed some of the best ballads ever heard for any and all time. This one is wayyyyyyyyyyy up there! Who with me?!?!?!
W/o girl, your sweet, your fine, you're everything! Tomorrow's Promise! Whata smashin hit when this came out n 1973! Songs had so much feelings back n the.70s! There'll never be better music n the era of the 70's!
My grandfather is James "Kenny" Sawyer from Baltimore MD. He actually wrote this song and is one of the members of Tomorrows Promise. My grand father loved to sing in church. Growing up I would always hear family tales about how He was a celebrity back in the 70's but I later found out that it was true. He never really spoke about the group and was a very private person in fact all of us are. My father would tell me all the stories about how he used to see his dad James Sawyer on TV as a child. It's just amazing how u can find out things that u may have never knew. Some of the group members came to my grandfather's viewing and they shared their memories about the old days when they were in the group (Tomorrows Promise). The music that they made will live on. -AJ
AJ Davoice Taylor I knew your grandfather, we were friends. We had loss contact for years but I got in touch with him a couple years before he passed. Kenny was talented and we had many laughs together. Your grandfather was a good guy.
This is pure harmony. Ecstasy mix of vocalization.Remarkable group. The music industry slept on Tomorrow's Promise. Everyone listening to them knows they were excellent vocalists.
David Church from Cherry Hill, Dolphin street, and McClean Blvd at North avenue agree 100% great music including the great Baltimore Whatnauts, Soft tones and Frankie and the Spindells and the Damon Otis Harris led Impact (Vandals)
Oh my goodness does this song bring back memories..... I'm a MEGA fan of this group. I was in my early teens when I first heard this song and was hooked the moment the needle touch the record. Those who are in my age group know what I'm referring to when I say "needle". Thank you so very much for adding this priceless gem.
This is SOUL at it's FINEST ! This pierced my heart ! Black music is like no other ! Please bring back the feeling. This music was revered around the world.
The amazing thing about this recording is that the second you have an influence pegged, it sends you into another one. Ultimately, it IS a true original!
Can't remember whether I threw my two cents in on this one before, but when you're this bad you deserve two cents more LOL. And you better believe THIS is THAT jam. Incredible, powerhouse performance that only comes around once in a lifetime. ......as we say: They KILT this jam. Always worth a run it back again whenever you groove it. In my world Old Skool is never far away, By the way, Glenn Jones turns it on, on his 2006 release, Forever: Timeless R & B Classics. His version is close. Well hey, it is Glenn Jones. Old Skool Rules.

This recording brings back emotions of yesterday. I was 13 when this record topped the charts on Baltimore radio stations. Thank you for bringing it back. It makes me think of all the good artists we had that cannot be replaced. The lyrics explain how sweet and wonderful women were to men back then. Love it.
Lee Pitman is an incredible vocalist. I was at the session he did with Pieces of a Dream. A lady came in from another session and just couldn't stop crying because his voice was sooooo great!!!
I grew up in the Bronx, NY, back in the 70's & 80's and man oh man , this was the joint back then. this is music. Unlike videos today, years ago brothers and sistah's of all colors sang their hearts out with what they had, and what they had is lacking today (talent)..thank you for posting.
Autumn Sapphire i was 14 when I first heard this song at a redlight basement party. i remember the 500,5000 grind. Delancy st shirkskins taylor mades ltiaila knits playboys. swissup & koolaid mostly respect for the babes & each other early 1970s PEACE
It's such a blessing to have this music to take away the stress and sometimes hopeless feelings current events bring even if only for fleeting moments, I am so glad I was around when this sound was created and dominated the air waves.....Praise God for this gift He's bless us with He truly works in mysterious ways....to God be the glory.... just sayin!!!!
Thank you for uploading this gem! It brought back the carefree days of my youth where every day was spent listening to WWRL, memorizing all the lyrics of every song, and guessing the top 16 songs every week. Hank Spann, Gary Byrd, Frankie Crocker...thank God for the magic of music!!!!
Thank You AJ Davoice Taylor for those wonderful comments about your Grandfather James " Kenny " Sawyer being the Writer of such a Beautiful Song and a Member of this group " Tomorrows Promise " !
I can remember slow-dancing to this gem at house parties as a teen. Such crystal-clear lead vocals. The arrangement was in that expansive, very-romantic Philly soul vein that was dominant at that time, as the torch was smoothly being passed from Motown, to Gamble-Huff-Thom Bell. Sublime.
Has a touch of that ENCHANTMENT SOUND~GLORIA~~I REMEMBER THIS ! back in the day! another group, brighter side of darkness ,smash ,,love jones..the 70's was killing it on the radio with smooth soulful love songs!! this is a true STANDOUT!!
Wow!!!!!! This is soooooo beautiful. I have been searching for this copy for years and I can not locate anything close to it. How can I order this or down load my own copy? No music have it available to include Amazone.
12:17 am this song been playing in my head all day.. ALL day. I was a little kid when this song aired ,but I never will forget it 🎶 yes you are ,lord have mercy yes you are 🎶 I can't even go to sleep now.😊 and when a man says -lord have mercy when he sees you,it makes you feel some kinds of good.. Lord have mercy 💯💗 (sounds like he's singing from the depths of his soul)
You can cry if you want, you can dance if you want - or you can just be consumed by the beautiful memories and our good fortune to have known such a song as this. :-)
Me neither, Once in a blue moon I may hear it on WBLS 107.5 FM Quiet Storm... I went out and bought this song on a small 45rpm... I have some 45's in a crate in my closet.... Nevertheless this is a great song...... Lot of the groups didn't get much recognition back in the day for their music........ November 25, 2014
I love those smooth Tenors. I grew up listening (Idolizing) to "Freddie Kelly" and "The Continental Four" singing after parties and on street corners on the Acres back in the day. Everyone has his own unique style no two are the same. It was a badge of honor to have that unique first tenor. We studied every one of them and developed our own style by taking a curl here and some verbrado over there .
I was thirteen when I first heard that song. Then was in my thirties, I got a chance to sing with him for several years. He got better with time. He is an amazing brother.
😁WoW! 2020'💕 Just about 9yrs.Young Then, I hear they're one the Baddest Groups from Baltimore Then & Now!!👍🎶Your sweet, Your fine, (Your everything to me)🎶 💕Tomorrow's Promise💕, R.I.P 😇 for those member's whom have passed😇 in this Life, Thanks for Sharing!👍
This is a truly great song and I'm amazed that somehow I missed it back in the day. It just shows how poorly the record companies did with promoting quality talent.The lead singer is right up there with many of the widely known lead singers. It's so sad to me to see such great talent go unrecognized.
Chris Guy I agree that this group is talented but back then there was so much talent,groups got passed by. The lead singers and the harmony, the bands,lawd have mercy
I agree, the lead singer is just as bad as Ted Mills,Russell Tompkins jr,William Poogie Hart etc.But y'all should check out a group called The (Carstairs) and the song,The story of our love. Let me know what you think!
My first time hearing this too. I missed this.🥴 Wonder if it didn't get much airplay here on the west coast. I was a teen then and hardly any r&b ever got passed me, the songstress that I am.
Yes indeed these obscure songs like this, and The Young Hearts really set it off for me,I was a young kid listening to my uncle & brother sing these and other songs mostly on 45s. I guess that's why I have such an affinity for ballads I'll take them over any genre of music or entertainment period... Peace,from Walbrook Jct.
Danny The Mos Bestest Crafted n Composed, Arranged n Performed Vocal Soul Group of All Time... So Smooth n Callin' Soul... My Number 1 Soul Song!! 😎🎤😎🎤😎🎤😎🎤
I looked for this song for 30 years one night over a friends house sitting ,listening to falsetto groups the song was just about over before I realized I'd found it .I only knew the first verse.boy I love this song .what a feeling it. produces.what beautiful voices , and the music is everything .we need to get them to do it again .

Lyrics to You’re Sweet, You’re Fine, You’re Everything
Baby when I met you
Love was such a silly game
From the first time that I saw you
I haven’t been the same
O o you taught me how to care
Made sure your love was there
Catered to my every, every need
Blew my mind, you did, indeed
You’re sweet, you’re fine, you’re everything, to me,
You’re sweet, you’re fine, you’re everything, to me,
What is it you do to me,
Oh oh oh mere words cannot explain
My whole world seems a rhapsody
It’s heaven just to call your name
O o you gave me love so pure
Even time can’t endure
Made up your man out of words
Who never thought in real life could deserve
Oh oh You’re sweet, you’re fine, you’re everything, to me,
You’re sweet, you’re fine, you’re everything, to me,
You’re a once in a lifetime yes you are
You my sunshine my brightest star
You’re the four seasons of my year
You’re everything and I love you dear
Oh oh You’re sweet, you’re fine, you’re everything, to me, yes you are
You’re sweet, you’re fine, you’re everything, to me, yes you are

Oh yeah! And the YOUNG VANDEL'S in my opinion girl!🎼🎶🗣🎙
New school can't touch this.Omg make me feel some type of way.
Classic Tomorrow's Promise! My Jam here! Played this one endlessly! Much Love!
always loved this jam haven't heard it in years. Song was huge in DC didn't know these brothas were from up the road in Baltimore
Heard it 1st in Shake & Bake on Penn Avenue in B-More 1973
Love this record. I still have it, and sure listen to it.
That's the exquisite voice of the great, Mr. Lee Pittman.
Leonard Keith

I was thirteen when I first heard that song. Then was in my thirties, I got a chance to sing with him for several years. He got better with time. He is an amazing brother.

This song is off the chain!!!!
This is a truly great song and I'm amazed that somehow I missed it back in the day. It just shows how poorly the record companies did with promoting quality talent.The lead singer is right up there with many of the widely known lead singers. It's so sad to me to see such great talent go unrecognized.
Chris Guy everybody in Newark new Jersey heard about them
Chris Guy I agree that this group is talented but back then there was so much talent,groups got passed by. The lead singers and the harmony, the bands,lawd have mercy
I agree, the lead singer is just as bad as Ted Mills,Russell Tompkins jr,William Poogie Hart etc.But y'all should check out a group called The (Carstairs) and the song,The story of our love. Let me know what you think!
My first time hearing this too. I missed this.🥴 Wonder if it didn't get much airplay here on the west coast. I was a teen then and hardly any r&b ever got passed me, the songstress that I am.
Your Sweet, Your Fine, Your Everything to me, What a tear Jerker this was and still is today!!
Yes indeed these obscure songs like this, and The Young Hearts really set it off for me,I was a young kid listening to my uncle & brother sing these and other songs mostly on 45s. I guess that's why I have such an affinity for ballads I'll take them over any genre of music or entertainment period...
Peace,from Walbrook Jct.
Still listening in2020 still a beautiful song good memory from this song
Now this is music. I have the 45. The lead omg.
over and over!!!!!
The best era of music
Holdding tight kind of music grown folks 😊
