Listening to this in floods of tears as I try and chose music for my husbands funeral who died unexpectedly last week. Hold your loved ones close today as you never know when you will lose them xx
I'm so sorry for your loss Susie. I will be keeping you in my prayers. I'm here because I just listened to Al's song, So Tired Of Being Alone. So much stress these days just trying to get by, trying to make sense of this changing world. The best to you my friend.
I am very ill, on my farewell to a peaceful world, I play this song as a farewell to my husband. I'm so worried about him. A broken man, saying goodbye to the woman he married for 52 years. We as young people in love with Al Green's music danced shuffling, our heads on each other's shoulders. The world seemed endless Now that I am sick and look back, so briefly, it seems like yesterday. Enjoy every precious minute, hour, day, week, month or year. Carpe Diem❤️
My dear friend Jack passed away this weekend from covid-19. He was 47, served in the military, Army veteran. He introduced me to Al Green. R.I.P. my brother.
No matter how life throws curves at you hang in their for those you love, and those that Love you back. As my late father would say. THE GRASS IS NOT AS GREEN ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCH. FOR MY FELLOW COMMENNTERS WHO HAS LOST A LOVE ONE AND PLAYS THIS SONG. ... YOU WERE BLESSED WITH THAT PERSON'S TIME WITH YOU, NOW YOUR BLESSED WITH A GUARDIAN ANGEL😅
There is just too much sorrow in the world. But when my mom passed away 6/06/24, it was a great relief to know that my mom, who suffered for so many years, was at peace finally. Since she was a child all kinds of abuse that you can think of, she suffered. No longer, Mama, I Love you Mama
Lost my Mom 11 years ago and still miss her so much... this song really hits it. Some broken hearts mend, but some keep a huge gap that never ever closes. God bless you...
I was today years old when I learned this was a cover. Shout out to the Bee Gees for writing this. Al Green definitely elevated the song. Gave it the soul and heartache meant for it. Love the Bee Gees too.
I'm a huge fan of the Bee Gees, but this was always one of my least favorite songs of theirs. Then I heard this version for the first time about 2 months ago. Reverend Al Green gave it the emotion it needed. I absolutely love his version - one of the few songs where the cover is 1000 times better than the original.
Cheers for clearing that up. I heard the bee gees version first but when i came across this I wasn't sure who wrote it first. I loved the bee gees cos of my parents
I disagree completely, the bee gees are a very underrated band, like when take that did the cover of "how deep is your love", and everyone was saying that the song was a take that. Sorry for the English, but I'm Italian.
I lost my whole family and my husband. The last 6 years have been so hard but i will see them again one day when the Lord calls me home. It have left a whole in my heart ❤️ that only Jesus can fill. Psalm 34:18 God is close to the broken hearted
my condolences, your whole family? That is an imaginable pain I'm sure, but you ate still here, you deserve it to yourself and the memory of your loved ones to LIVE LIFE til it's your time to go. Don't give up and waste away in sorrow, I'm speaking life into your circumstances and pray that you find solace as times moves on.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I AM 70 YEARS OLD, AND I HAVE HEARD ALL TYPES OF MUSIC THRU THE YEARS. HOWEVER, ARTISTS LIKE AL GREEN GAVE US MUSIC THAT WAS MEANINGFUL AND RELATABLE TO LIFES SITUATIONS. THATS WHY WE STILL APPRECIATE THOSE ARTISTS BACK THEN.
If he knew my wife, he'd have known how to mend a broken heart. Mine was devastated and she put it back together the moment she smiled at me. She mends everything in my life and I'd be nothing without her. Theresa, you make life worth living.
Puff Swaggon thank you. Your comment is the best comment I've ever read, from every comment I've ever read on utube.Wonderfull, Beautiful, 4 Eva Memorable. P.S: Theresa & Puff God Bless your Love ✌️
My grandmother’s favorite artist was Al Green. She passed away this past December and I haven’t listened to him before today because I would cry but now I’m doing it. The tears are streaming but I’m gonna be strong. ❤️ I miss you Maw Maw. ❤️
When I used to sing this aloud, my mom would stare at me and smile because I would get too into it. Well she passed 1 month ago.. May 2020. 😭 and when I sing it, I swear shes watching. This song has so much meaning, depending on your path in life. This virus, all the racism, killings, family deaths, relationships.. if u just stop and listen... R.I.P. Mom!! I love you! (Also for those who haven't [but need to] tell someone you love them, a spouse, sibling, friend, or most important, child or parent...tell them.. you don't want to ever live with the fact that you didn't if they pass. Who cares how they respond... tell them. May be the last time)!! Mad love to you all!!
So sorry for your loss. I lost my sweet mother March 2015 and yet it feels like just yesterday. I pray that God will comfort you and your family at this time and forever.😢💕🙏🏾🙏🏾
My father passed 12-06-96 when I was just 15yrs old. This song meant everything to me then as it does now. I'm so appreciative that I was raised on music like this. Otis Redding (Big O as my father called him), Al Green (Cool Al) and Marvin Gaye (Silky Marvin) were his all time favorites. I'll always cherish memories of him sipping his favorite cognac and blasting these tunes in his Cadillac. Me on the passenger and we just sitting in the yard listening to these legends over and over. Thanks for the memories pop rip 🕊
I grew up with all these singers in England. They mean so much to me too. The best singers just a voice nothing else. Al Green was played at my daughters wedding was so beautiful. Let’s stay together such a beautiful song.
@Sydlive It will. Just remember the good times. Lost a very dear and genuine friend who honestly cared about ME. Friends like that are hard to come by. Miss her immensely. 💝
I know how it feels..like its hard to go forth from here. My sister who was also mt best friend died tragically from cancer. Diagnosed with terminal cancer and six months to a year. We went through 2018 together and on xmas eve she died a peaceful death. I never even realized it was near until she took her last breath. It was very powerful in the room with four of us around her. It confirmed there are angels and something after called heaven. She rests in the Lords mansion with many rooms. He preparethed a room for her. I miss her face, her voice and her.
@@jackierinke4376 your words feel like they are straight from my own heart. I know that feeling of missing someone in entirety. I know one day we will see them again when we go home. 🧡 thank you so much for sharing. I needed this today.
My sister... my niece ..I feel for them they lost wife and husband 1 year so far....the pains come and go .....Asian philosophy ...says to help heal you is to go back to beginning. ....helps to find you again
I lost my oldest son from drugs, while grieving the one and only love of his life who left us just a month or so before he left this world. May God bless them both with peace and comfort until we see them again
so sorry to hear of your losses; i hope you all can find comfort and knowing someone out there cares about your pain ; know that there with the angels 😢❤❤
If you're listening to this with a broken heart, guilt and pain, I'm so sorry. I pray for you to heal and to come to know the joy that comes from knowing that you are deeply loved by God. I pray for love to come your way. You will never stop missing your loved one but you can heal and come to treasure your memories and smile again. Much love to you.💜
I just lost my baby 3 weeks ago , still mourning silently. Thiis year has been a roller coaster for everyone . Yall stay safe out there Thank you to everyone, stay safe out here and happy new year
I grew up on Al Green. My dad was a big fan. He would pack us all in the car for road trips and we would listen to Al Green. I dedicate this song to him only because I miss dad .
I lost my mom 7/5/21. She was my everything. I took care of her until her last day. This song puts my feelings into words. My life and heart will never be the same.
I lost my mom 4/12/2020 and i took care of her until her last day to this was one of her song she loved and it put me in to my feelings to i miss her so much she was my best friend
I thank God your mother had you to care for her, you will heal but you will always think of her. My mother has been gone 42 years and I still find myself wondering what she is doing on some days.
This song makes me very nostalgic. 😆 I have had my heart broken several times. Just got it broken again by my husband. But ready to live and love again at 50🥰🥰🥰. Thanks Al.
@SarahGetsCreative... You Go Girl!!! Don't let all those broken hearts stop you from believing that you'll eventually find the one.Your story could well be mine luv. I'm 64 and I'm sure that I have finally found my soul mate.We are meeting up for the 1st time this morning and I feel like I'm a teenager once again! XX🤗
My daughter committed suicide at the age of 23 and I can't fix this hole in my heart, In the sunshine I still feel the overcast of gloom. I don't feel home anymore. This song says everything that my heart feels.
My heart goes out to you. My family member did the same in March. We still think of her everyday and about what we could do to prevent it. It is a black hole in your chest. But I tell myself, we will get through this and I pray you find the strength to do that some day. “There will come a day, I promise you, when the thought of your son, or daughter, or your wife or your husband, brings a smile to your lips before it brings a tear to your eye. It will happen. My prayer for you is that day will come sooner than later.”
Every time you think of your daughter you show how much you love her, honoring her and honoring God. "Sorrow is better than laughter, for by sadness of face the heart is made glad" Ecc 7:3 May God hold you up the rest of your days.
I stopped hearing from my girlfriend as frequently. From many emails, calls, and text's to short little quips. Her birthday card to me in April was corny and not filled with love at all. So I asked her in a text, "Are you seeing someone else?" Her answer: "I'm dating casually." So the girl I was going to marry decided to end a 6 year relationship. Talk about a kick in the nuts. I hope she does not end up locked away in a mental hospital for 4 months again when she was in her 20's. I never once stepped out on her. See what trust can bring you?
It's 3 am and I have tears flowing down my face, listening to this beautiful song and remembering the loss of my beautiful mother due to Covid in August. I miss her terribly and I will never get over the fact that I was not even able to hold her during her final days.
So sorry for Loss of Your Beloved Beautiful Mother:"May She Rest In Peace"🕊 .Our Heavenly Father will guide you each day.Its hard , I know & feel your pain 😢- I lost My Beloved Son on 02/11/2019.We miss our Beloved Ones but , know they are no longer in pain , in tears , no suffering of any kind; just the eternal bliss of our Heavenly Father holy Presence. 🙏
My mother passed from an overdose 3 years back and I tell everyone that was the worst heartbreak I’ve ever experienced in my life. This song speaks to me so strongly, I love you mom -your baby boy
I love that young people are discovering Al Green. I mean, 40 years ago this WAS the great music we listened to, along with tons of other GREAT music in all genres. Now everyone sounds the same.
They're is a lot of good music today that sounds unique, you're just not looking for it. There's literally so much potential to create nowadays with all of the different computer programs, pedals, and new mastering techniques.
This is my first time having the guts to listen to an AL Green song after 5 years since my dad has died. My dad played his music all the time as I grew up. I grew up to love AL Greens music.. I type this in tears missing my dad..There's no doubt in my mind that my dad wouldn't want me to walk away from his music forever. This is why I'm finally listening again. How I've missed this song..
my dad died this year and left me a secret email with two songs from the moody blues his favorite band. Its hard to listen to them as theres no copy from him in the email just the songs.
I’m 54. My mom always kept Al Green, Barry White, Marvin Gaye and the like in rotation on the record player when I was young. I passed these musical blessings to my son. He thanked me. Love you Rev🤘🏿
I thank God for you, Reginald, for passing this on to your son. Your son will forever appreciate you for it. This is how we keep kind this of music alive. Bravo to you, Sir!
No broken heart here. But this song takes me to a time in my teens and a young woman I fell in love with but let get away because I was too young and stupid to know what she was. She’s now deceased and we both lived our own lives, family, etc. Guys, think before you let her go!
I let the love of my life go for 15 years but now we are together and happily married been together 19 years and married for 2 of them and she ain’t going nowhere
12 years ago I had a very bad break up.. crying packing my shit to leave. 😔😂😂😂 My heart has been mended by a real man .I'm getting married June 2021♥️♥️
Reverend, I hope you are reading these comments. It's has to be gratifying to see how many lives your.words and music have touched. I didn't expect to be crying reading the comments, but here we are
Ojalá no sea la única mexicana por aquí, solo quiero expresar que la música es universal y usted señor Al lo es, uno de los mejores cantantes e intérpretes de emociones. ¡¡Extraordinario!! la música con más clase sin demeritar otros géneros pero desde mi particular punto de vista la mejor!!
I remember how great it was growing up, meeting young ladies, going to dances, pulling each other up close, whispering in their ears while letting Al set the mood….Priceless!!! Thanks Al for all the memories!!!
Dear Al. Thank you for once again carrying me back to reality. My husband and my son have both passed away leaving this 72 yr old wife and mother alone with her thoughts memories and broken heart. Somehow your song takes me thru a place I fear I may never come out of. But tonight I’ve come thru once again and I know there will be a tomorrow because of your music. Thank you.
I'm really sorry to hear about your situation Sue. That's horrible but I'm so proud of you for staying strong through your hardships. You got this. Burn bright and shine on ❤
I almost lost my Son on his way to work. His brakes went out on his vehicle, just as pulled off driving 25 miles of freeway. I know him leaving me, would destroy me. But because I accepted Jesus Christ, as my Savior, I know, he would be in a better place. ISAIAH 57: 1 GOD Bless you...Peace, Blessings & God's Mercy sent to you & your home.
I lost my daddy on December 22nd 2021 and I miss him immensely!! The pain is so hard to endure. We were two peas in a pod. I am beyond shattered! This song digs deep where pain lives.
My roommate, my husband and I rode from Austin to Crockett Texas. We jammed to AL Green the entire trip. It was magical. My husband passed away later that year. I'll always remember what a beautiful time it was. So much fun, singing along with AL on that trip.
This never fails to make me cry. My tears are the words that my heart won’t allow me to form- in case it breaks all over again. One of the greatest songs ever. Sending all that are love and blessings. Be safe. 🙏🏽💗
Blessed enuf to have seen the Rev. Al in concert: It was in line maybe 2014/5? I sat there: closed my eyes: and he sounded just like the record…I love him.
Lost my dad on Father’s Day 2020 and this song is exactly how I feel. He was my best friend and The best dad. The amount of sorrow I have felt was unimaginable… not sure I’ll ever mend my heart, after losing my fella.
I lost my Mother on 1-2-2012, I still think of her so often, it was truly the most hurt I've ever felt. No closure. Tell your parents how much you love them. Do it for yourself. Be forgiving and know you are free and complete!
True feelings for SO many who.have loved @ lost .Noone ever tells us about the sorrow .thanks Al Green LA LA LA lLala LA lala Help me mend aLa la this ol broken heart helpme live again
One of my grandmother's favorite songs. The hospital released her to come home with Hospice and she passed away while this song was playing. O how I miss my sweet grandmother so very much RIP Grandma, we will be together again. I love you dearly 💛
i understand you, my grandma passed away a couple of weeks ago. old school music reminds me of her all the time because she's the one who got me into it so ive been listening to a lot of it the past few weeks. my heart goes out to you
Long story short: I’m so, so, in love with my wife. We’ve been married 15 years, I’m 39 now. From the very first time I’ve ever heard this song, I completely loved it. My heart has never been broken, but this song hits me. I get teary eyed!! Thank you Mr Green!
I am next Juli 2020 also 15 years married. We know each other for 23 years. And we have to decide if everything is broken or not. I wish he could ever say such a nice thing to me. I still love him, but he never lets me know if he still loves me. My heart is broken...and that's why I listened to this beautiful song....
I lost my daughter 1-5-2020, through deadly fentanyl. My only daughter that was never married and had no children--that was my whole world. She was a talented singer-songwriter. She was very talented and had plans to make a hit someday and help abused children and homeless people with monies earned. This song is what I think of when I replay this song of yours Al. Over and over on my cell phone. This song is exactly how I feel after losing my daughter--Tiffany Dawn Caudill, 43 years of age. The most precious gift given to me--taken forevermore. Nothing will ever be the same after losing my lovely daughter. Thanks Al for your heartfelt music. I love your music and always will. Love you!!
I'm so sorry Charlene. I wish I could've known such a wonderful creative soul like your daughter. It breaks my heart to hear so many suffer from fentanyl being sold on the streets. Reason why I stopped with those club partying days because it's just too risky. But I appreciate your words and sharing your pain. I love you for it and hope you're staying strong. Burn bright and shine on. Tiffany would be happy to see you live on, sharing her story. ❤
This has to be one of the saddest songs ever written. He's asking metaphysical questions that can't be answered! Rain from falling? Sun from shining? Damn!
Now this is REAL MUSIC! It's 2022 and this song send chills through your body and it's a great love making song! Thank you Mr. Al Green for making nothing but hits that will last a life time! Our parents listened, we listen and our children will listen and their children etc etc!
About two weeks ago, on the last day of our first college term, my roommate and I both sat on our beds and listened to this song on my speaker. Complete silence the whole song, just reminiscing on the term and the many more to come. Thanks Mr Green.
Listening to the BeeGees, who wrote it to celebrate their reunion after a split up, they do a brillint job, however Al just puts his genius soul spin into it changing it to be unrecognisable. Love the result. Totally mesmorising, simply beautiful and timeless.
This song is just how I feel. Lost my wife less than a month ago and my heart is broken no matter how hard I try to pretend that I am alright. I am just masking the pain 💔
Prayers to you and your family, and I pray that your wife's memories will see you during these dark minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years ahead🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
Me paso lo mismo 6 meses atras si ya paso tiempo pero les digo una cosa hoy dia la extraño aun mas. mi vida partio junto con ella cuanto te extraño mi amor .
@@jamaingross8704 yes it does hurt like hell. The loneliness is the worst part. I don't have any motivation to do anything with anyone and when I do, I am thinking about our time together. Sorry for your loss
This is my mom's FAVORITE song. This brought back memories when I was a kid in Belize... we didn't have T.V and my mom listened to this song over and over... my sister and I knew this song word for word by 8 yrs old. 😍🥰🤩 This song ALWAYS want me to slow dance😇😊❤
This was my dads 👨 Favourite song 🎵 it's brought back memories, .. we didn't have TV and dad listened to al green on the record I remember this song wow , what a inspiration to have at that age .
My momma,uncle and aunties play this song all the time when I was young. Now they all gone, I miss them so much I had great moments with them back in the 90s. I will meet them again one day!🙏🏽😢🥺
Geneva Thomas I feel your pain. I too have lost my parents as well as all my aunts and uncles. Thank the Good Lord we have wonderful memories to cherish until we meet again.
I know the feeling. What you stated hit homes. Truly what brought me back to this. Lost my Mom 4 years ago. Then, I thought about the group. There's only one left. Feel like he should be given his flowers while he's here. They( BeeGees) wrote some of the best. My mom listened to them all the time. Not just Disco but Real RNB. From Al to Destiny Child. Still listening in home and car. Would love to see Soul Train and BET honor them instead of this " Twerking and Naked mess out here now.
Mr. Green! Mr. Green! A walking god! My Momma used to tell me how I need to listen to AL Green because "that man was hurt bad and was truly heartbroken... you can hear it between verses in what he sings" My Momma left this great blue and green four years ago, and there was no one smarter. Long live the echos of Al Green down hallways and out summer windows!
This song makes me cry harder than anything. It’s a close tie with my mom passing away at fifteen. I truly feel alone in this world and I find myself asking the same questions you ask in the lyrics. I’ve struggled with depression my entire life and people treating me like I was garbage since I can remember. The only thing that I can find comforting is the fact that your lyrics speak to my soul and that doesn’t make me as alone.
Hi Mars R. I just listened to this right now, it’s been years! We would all be at our grandparents house, music outside playing, uncles all singing! Now it is going on a year since loosing my beautiful mom! Kisses all the way to heaven mom and dad and uncles!!! God bless y’all!!! ♥️😥♥️😥♥️😥♥️🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Jesus loves u. U r not alone. U r valuable to him enough that he suffered and died for u and all who believe in Him. Open your heart and let him in. He will give u a love this world cannot give. God bless u.
Mars Reynold, I saw your comment and was touched by it. Sorry you list your Mom at such an early age, just remember you're not alone in this World, find solace in the Lord, find a church group, not the ones who Judge you, but the ones who embrace you. In the meantime, like me, I have been through so much, but I never lost my smile. These songs helps me to not think about the negative aspects of life, but creates great energy, peace, and enthusiasm about my path. I pray for everlasting peace in your life. Be bless my dear.
Al you are so loved. I am 52 years old and I was listening to your music as a very little girl because my mom played your music almost on a daily basis. By the time I was 10 I knew every song of yours through and through. I have always listened to your music, it just does something to my soul. I have been up since 6:30 a.m. working and listening to you Al Green!!! Thank you for your legendary sound and legacy of music.
Ahhhh, the smoothness of Al's voice and the beauty of a BeeGees song. Is there anything better? Takes me back to those days when music moved me, spoke to me.
In the month of December 2023, I continually played this song. It accurately described where I was that whole year. I was laid off from my job. On the verge of being evicted from my apartment. And to top it off my health deteriorated, I was hospitalized, and diagnosed with congestive heart failure. But GOD! In only a few months I see great doctors who prescribed meds that are helping me get better. I take walks in the park for exercise. I'm finding I love nature. The issue with my apartment was resolved. And I am well enough to volunteer at the local food bank a few times a week doing administrative work. I love it! And they even offered me a job there! Plus I am now enrolled in a trade school taking online classes. Now when I listen to this great song, the ending "I want to live again" is now true for me. Don't give up! The best is yet to come for YOU. If you are feeling like a loser, just know that things can change for you and YOU CAN BE A WINNER. Give GOD a chance, trust in his love for you.

Listening to this in floods of tears as I try and chose music for my husbands funeral who died unexpectedly last week. Hold your loved ones close today as you never know when you will lose them xx
I'm so sorry for your loss Susie. I will be keeping you in my prayers. I'm here because I just listened to Al's song, So Tired Of Being Alone. So much stress these days just trying to get by, trying to make sense of this changing world. The best to you my friend.
Yes
I'm so sorry for your loss and, please accept my sincere condolences. With love from, Western North Carolina ❤️🙏🏽❤️
Sorry for your loss😢
My beloved husband died 10 years ago. My friend sang “How can I breathe without you” by Lean rymes.
My heart aches for you.
I am very ill, on my farewell to a peaceful world, I play this song as a farewell to my husband.
I'm so worried about him.
A broken man, saying goodbye to the woman he married for 52 years.
We as young people in love with Al Green's music danced shuffling, our heads on each other's shoulders.
The world seemed endless
Now that I am sick and look back, so briefly, it seems like yesterday.
Enjoy every precious minute, hour, day, week, month or year.
Carpe Diem❤️
God bless you❤😢
God bless you and your husband. 😢 🙏
Good Bless you and strength to your husband to keep going until you meet again😢.
God created music for our hearts to speak, our souls to give hope to us, your love for your wife and your life together resonates with all of us.. x❤
Realmente o tempo não para, Deus abençoe sempre vocês ♥️🌹

There is just too much sorrow in the world. But when my mom passed away 6/06/24, it was a great relief to know that my mom, who suffered for so many years, was at peace finally. Since she was a child all kinds of abuse that you can think of, she suffered. No longer, Mama, I Love you Mama
So sorry for your loss
@@terrelld9249 thank you, but I'll see her again and at last she's at peace
Lost my Mom 11 years ago and still miss her so much... this song really hits it. Some broken hearts mend, but some keep a huge gap that never ever closes. God bless you...
Thank you for sharing. Sending love and strength
Sorry to hear such sad news if her, may her soul rest and peace she will have. Bless you
I was today years old when I learned this was a cover. Shout out to the Bee Gees for writing this. Al Green definitely elevated the song. Gave it the soul and heartache meant for it. Love the Bee Gees too.
I'm a huge fan of the Bee Gees, but this was always one of my least favorite songs of theirs.
Then I heard this version for the first time about 2 months ago.
Reverend Al Green gave it the emotion it needed. I absolutely love his version - one of the few songs where the cover is 1000 times better than the original.
Cheers for clearing that up. I heard the bee gees version first but when i came across this I wasn't sure who wrote it first. I loved the bee gees cos of my parents
A perfect moment in "Notting Hill" (1999)
Thanks for that info
I disagree completely, the bee gees are a very underrated band, like when take that did the cover of "how deep is your love", and everyone was saying that the song was a take that.
Sorry for the English, but I'm Italian.
This man’s voice is iconic, they don’t make music like this anymore.
No, but check out the black pumas
Soul pure.
Yes, is the real truth!!!
So true!
Yeah, the bee gees don't do that anymore.
I lost my whole family and my husband. The last 6 years have been so hard but i will see them again one day when the Lord calls me home. It have left a whole in my heart ❤️ that only Jesus can fill. Psalm 34:18 God is close to the broken hearted
Sending you lots of hugs and love.
My condolences on your monumental losses❤❤
i'm sorry, Sending you lots of hugs and love.
They are with you.. you see the signs if you want to.. every day. X
my condolences, your whole family? That is an imaginable pain I'm sure, but you ate still here, you deserve it to yourself and the memory of your loved ones to LIVE LIFE til it's your time to go. Don't give up and waste away in sorrow, I'm speaking life into your circumstances and pray that you find solace as times moves on.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I AM 70 YEARS OLD, AND I HAVE HEARD ALL TYPES OF MUSIC THRU THE YEARS. HOWEVER, ARTISTS LIKE AL GREEN GAVE US MUSIC THAT WAS MEANINGFUL AND RELATABLE TO LIFES SITUATIONS. THATS WHY WE STILL APPRECIATE THOSE ARTISTS BACK THEN.
I'm 75, and I agree with all of you, The best music ever.😊
I love his music,but also Sade is one of my favourite
I'm 37 and I agree
If he knew my wife, he'd have known how to mend a broken heart. Mine was devastated and she put it back together the moment she smiled at me. She mends everything in my life and I'd be nothing without her. Theresa, you make life worth living.
Beautiful.
@@jillmiller3100 My wife definitely is.
She is your soul mate Son. Love you both so much.
Puff Swaggon thank you. Your comment is the best comment I've ever read, from every comment I've ever read on utube.Wonderfull, Beautiful, 4 Eva Memorable.
P.S: Theresa & Puff God Bless your Love ✌️
Beautiful
My grandmother’s favorite artist was Al Green. She passed away this past December and I haven’t listened to him before today because I would cry but now I’m doing it. The tears are streaming but I’m gonna be strong. ❤️ I miss you Maw Maw. ❤️
Lubbock Texas sends PRAYERS may ur Grandmother R.I.P 😇
im a grandmother im still here
lost son and dad my mom still here . Loved him
candidly she will be happy he was my favourite
good for you
My truly beautiful friend died recently. This song feels so real. Helps one grieve. She left a beautiful garden for all to see.
i am going thru that now
My grandfather is playing the drums on this song❤️
😎 cool
Awesome
wow
Dope ❤️🔥
Well then u grandfather is a BAD ASS drum beater!!! I think that's so many of our fav ins on this beautiful piece.
When I used to sing this aloud, my mom would stare at me and smile because I would get too into it. Well she passed 1 month ago.. May 2020. 😭 and when I sing it, I swear shes watching. This song has so much meaning, depending on your path in life. This virus, all the racism, killings, family deaths, relationships.. if u just stop and listen... R.I.P. Mom!! I love you! (Also for those who haven't [but need to] tell someone you love them, a spouse, sibling, friend, or most important, child or parent...tell them.. you don't want to ever live with the fact that you didn't if they pass. Who cares how they respond... tell them. May be the last time)!! Mad love to you all!!
Sorry for ur lost Lubbock Texas sends PRAYER for ur MOM😎
So sorry for your loss. I lost my sweet mother March 2015 and yet it feels like just yesterday. I pray that God will comfort you and your family at this time and forever.😢💕🙏🏾🙏🏾

Sorry about your loss keep those sweet memories she's smiling at you from heaven I'm sure
Sorry for your loss. Yes I believe she smiles at you still
In my opinion, this is the best soul music song I have ever listened to. 😊
Welcome. Slow dancing music back in my day. Was wonderful.
Hermosa canción.me gustraria mucho la letra en espsñol
❤ this one of those songs you don't try to duplicate because you can't improve on perfection we're talking Al Green here
Amen to that
My father passed 12-06-96 when I was just 15yrs old. This song meant everything to me then as it does now. I'm so appreciative that I was raised on music like this. Otis Redding (Big O as my father called him), Al Green (Cool Al) and Marvin Gaye (Silky Marvin) were his all time favorites. I'll always cherish memories of him sipping his favorite cognac and blasting these tunes in his Cadillac. Me on the passenger and we just sitting in the yard listening to these legends over and over. Thanks for the memories pop rip 🕊
they were the best legends
Your fatber had a very good taste about music. I was 15 when loose my dad too. We were too young for that big loss.
thank you for sharing
I grew up with all these singers in England. They mean so much to me too. The best singers just a voice nothing else. Al Green was played at my daughters wedding was so beautiful. Let’s stay together such a beautiful song.
Bless you and your memories............
I lost my best friend, she loved this song. We’ve been soulmates since I was 5. I hope my heart can mend one day.
Condolences beautiful soul best friends want you to be happy
@Sydlive
It will.
Just remember the good times.
Lost a very dear and genuine friend who honestly cared about ME. Friends like that are hard to come by.
Miss her immensely. 💝
sad bab
I know how it feels..like its hard to go forth from here. My sister who was also mt best friend died tragically from cancer. Diagnosed with terminal cancer and six months to a year. We went through 2018 together and on xmas eve she died a peaceful death. I never even realized it was near until she took her last breath. It was very powerful in the room with four of us around her. It confirmed there are angels and something after called heaven. She rests in the Lords mansion with many rooms. He preparethed a room for her. I miss her face, her voice and her.
@@jackierinke4376 your words feel like they are straight from my own heart. I know that feeling of missing someone in entirety. I know one day we will see them again when we go home. 🧡 thank you so much for sharing. I needed this today.
My husband passed 3 months ago and my heart hurts but I'm trusting GOD. I miss him so.
Sii es una muy bella interpretacion
My sister... my niece ..I feel for them they lost wife and husband 1 year so far....the pains come and go .....Asian philosophy ...says to help heal you is to go back to beginning. ....helps to find you again
bless you
I lost my oldest son from drugs, while grieving the one and only love of his life who left us just a month or so before he left this world. May God bless them both with peace and comfort until we see them again
so sorry for so much loss..life breaks our hearts everytime.
Thank you I also lost my son a year ago November the 2nd my pain is still very alive but Al’s music helps me these painful times I miss my baby boy
so sorry to hear of your losses; i hope you all can find comfort and knowing someone out there cares about your pain ; know that there with the angels 😢❤❤
Im so sorry
I play this every night at work I love it .
If you're listening to this with a broken heart, guilt and pain, I'm so sorry. I pray for you to heal and to come to know the joy that comes from knowing that you are deeply loved by God. I pray for love to come your way. You will never stop missing your loved one but you can heal and come to treasure your memories and smile again. Much love to you.💜
Thank you so much I lost the love of my life July 22 2017 and you're right I will never stop missing her

No one can sing this the way Al Green does. You can feel it.

I grew up on Al Green. My dad was a big fan. He would pack us all in the car for road trips and we would listen to Al Green. I dedicate this song to him only because I miss dad .

why it take so much time babe? do we have to suffer so long?
Thank you.
I lost my mom 7/5/21. She was my everything. I took care of her until her last day. This song puts my feelings into words. My life and heart will never be the same.

😊
My daughter committed suicide at the age of 23 and I can't fix this hole in my heart, In the sunshine I still feel the overcast of gloom. I don't feel home anymore. This song says everything that my heart feels.
My heart goes out to you. My family member did the same in March. We still think of her everyday and about what we could do to prevent it. It is a black hole in your chest. But I tell myself, we will get through this and I pray you find the strength to do that some day.
“There will come a day, I promise you, when the thought of your son, or daughter, or your wife or your husband, brings a smile to your lips before it brings a tear to your eye. It will happen. My prayer for you is that day will come sooner than later.”
my deepest condolences for your loss.
So sorry
Every time you think of your daughter you show how much you love her, honoring her and honoring God. "Sorrow is better than laughter, for by sadness of face the heart is made glad" Ecc 7:3 May God hold you up the rest of your days.
im so sorry for your loss. my thoughts are with you and your family. i hope it gets better someday..
Reading the comments on here while listening to this and the tears are flowing. My heart goes out to each and every one of you.

May your grandfather rest in peace

This song is a true therapy. Especially in rough times
Yes it is
@@patricia3578 most definitely, only we know the challenges we face no words can express this for others to understand
Yes..i definitely know that feeling..cant seem to shake it if i tried..😔
I stopped hearing from my girlfriend as frequently. From many emails, calls, and text's to short little quips. Her birthday card to me in April was corny and not filled with love at all. So I asked her in a text, "Are you seeing someone else?" Her answer: "I'm dating casually." So the girl I was going to marry decided to end a 6 year relationship. Talk about a kick in the nuts. I hope she does not end up locked away in a mental hospital for 4 months again when she was in her 20's. I never once stepped out on her. See what trust can bring you?
Beautiful heartfelt song
It's 3 am and I have tears flowing down my face, listening to this beautiful song and remembering the loss of my beautiful mother due to Covid in August. I miss her terribly and I will never get over the fact that I was not even able to hold her during her final days.

I hope you are doing ok
I love that young people are discovering Al Green. I mean, 40 years ago this WAS the great music we listened to, along with tons of other GREAT music in all genres.
Now everyone sounds the same.
Sad and true and way to digitalize aswell
Hey gorgeous
discover? more like your dad played it all the time and then grew up and realized dad had good taste lol
They're is a lot of good music today that sounds unique, you're just not looking for it. There's literally so much potential to create nowadays with all of the different computer programs, pedals, and new mastering techniques.
@@kultenhughes3585 I know, but I think all the "different computer programs, pedals, and new mastering techniques" isn't "real" music..
This is my first time having the guts to listen to an AL Green song after 5 years since my dad has died. My dad played his music all the time as I grew up. I grew up to love AL Greens music.. I type this in tears missing my dad..There's no doubt in my mind that my dad wouldn't want me to walk away from his music forever. This is why I'm finally listening again. How I've missed this song..
My condolences my love..
@@neish26 thank you
my dad died this year and left me a secret email with two songs from the moody blues his favorite band. Its hard to listen to them as theres no copy from him in the email just the songs.
@@lisanolan2382 I'm sorry to hear about your dad. Condolences to you💖
I’m 54. My mom always kept Al Green, Barry White, Marvin Gaye and the like in rotation on the record player when I was young. I passed these musical blessings to my son. He thanked me. Love you Rev🤘🏿
I thank God for you, Reginald, for passing this on to your son. Your son will forever appreciate you for it. This is how we keep kind this of music alive. Bravo to you, Sir!
Deep words and deep meanings.

Lost my dad 2 weeks ago.
This song sends me some place.
I’m sorry for your loss. You will be happy again one day.
Sorry for your loss. God bless you.
No broken heart here. But this song takes me to a time in my teens and a young woman I fell in love with but let get away because I was too young and stupid to know what she was. She’s now deceased and we both lived our own lives, family, etc. Guys, think before you let her go!
Sincere and from the heart you spoke. Felt that!

Reverend, I hope you are reading these comments. It's has to be gratifying to see how many lives your.words and music have touched. I didn't expect to be crying reading the comments, but here we are
Ojalá no sea la única mexicana por aquí, solo quiero expresar que la música es universal y usted señor Al lo es, uno de los mejores cantantes e intérpretes de emociones. ¡¡Extraordinario!! la música con más clase sin demeritar otros géneros pero desde mi particular punto de vista la mejor!!
No eres la unica me gusta All green tambien
Me encanta la música Al y esta canción en especial, lo heredé de mi tío. Saludos desde Tijuana :)
Ya somos cuatro.
Saludos desde Ecuador.. Es la música del corazon
Si senorita.
I remember how great it was growing up, meeting young ladies, going to dances, pulling each other up close, whispering in their ears while letting Al set the mood….Priceless!!! Thanks Al for all the memories!!!
Lee you romantic man.

Dear Al. Thank you for once again carrying me back to reality. My husband and my son have both passed away leaving this 72 yr old wife and mother alone with her thoughts memories and broken heart. Somehow your song takes me thru a place I fear I may never come out of. But tonight I’ve come thru once again and I know there will be a tomorrow because of your music. Thank you.
I'm really sorry to hear about your situation Sue. That's horrible but I'm so proud of you for staying strong through your hardships. You got this. Burn bright and shine on ❤
I almost lost my Son on his way to work. His brakes went out on his vehicle, just as pulled off driving 25 miles of freeway. I know him leaving me, would destroy me. But because I accepted Jesus Christ, as my Savior, I know, he would be in a better place. ISAIAH 57: 1 GOD Bless you...Peace, Blessings & God's Mercy sent to you & your home.

I lost my daddy on December 22nd 2021 and I miss him immensely!! The pain is so hard to endure. We were two peas in a pod. I am beyond shattered! This song digs deep where pain lives.

My roommate, my husband and I rode from Austin to Crockett Texas. We jammed to AL Green the entire trip. It was magical. My husband passed away later that year. I'll always remember what a beautiful time it was. So much fun, singing along with AL on that trip.
My dad passed away about 19 years ago as I was a kid, and the pain is still lingering in my heart and head…
The Book of Eli brought me to this beauty. Thank you Mr. Green 💜
This never fails to make me cry. My tears are the words that my heart won’t allow me to form- in case it breaks all over again.
One of the greatest songs ever.
Sending all that are love and blessings.
Be safe.

Different style .. but bee gees is good too ... both version r good
Agree! I love the BeeGees but this version transcends.
Not really the Bee Gees , the original is better.
Lost my dad on Father’s Day 2020 and this song is exactly how I feel. He was my best friend and The best dad. The amount of sorrow I have felt was unimaginable… not sure I’ll ever mend my heart, after losing my fella.

Long story short: I’m so, so, in love with my wife. We’ve been married 15 years, I’m 39 now. From the very first time I’ve ever heard this song, I completely loved it. My heart has never been broken, but this song hits me. I get teary eyed!! Thank you Mr Green!
I hope this continues to be the case for you. Good love ithat stands the test of time is hard to find.
You are truly blessed to still love your wife after 15 years of marriage, I just wish all marriages were like yours. Peace be with you and your wife.

I am next Juli 2020 also 15 years married. We know each other for 23 years. And we have to decide if everything is broken or not. I wish he could ever say such a nice thing to me. I still love him, but he never lets me know if he still loves me. My heart is broken...and that's why I listened to this beautiful song....

I lost my daughter 1-5-2020, through deadly fentanyl. My only daughter that was never married and had no children--that was my whole world. She was a talented singer-songwriter. She was very talented and had plans to make a hit someday and help abused children and homeless people with monies earned. This song is what I think of when I replay this song of yours Al. Over and over on my cell phone. This song is exactly how I feel after losing my daughter--Tiffany Dawn Caudill, 43 years of age. The most precious gift given to me--taken forevermore. Nothing will ever be the same after losing my lovely daughter. Thanks Al for your heartfelt music. I love your music and always will. Love you!!
I'm so sorry Charlene. I wish I could've known such a wonderful creative soul like your daughter. It breaks my heart to hear so many suffer from fentanyl being sold on the streets. Reason why I stopped with those club partying days because it's just too risky. But I appreciate your words and sharing your pain. I love you for it and hope you're staying strong. Burn bright and shine on. Tiffany would be happy to see you live on, sharing her story. ❤
I am so sorry for your loss. I wish there were words for your loss.
I truly feel you!1
I'm sorry about your daughter.
Dearest Charlene. My arms are around you honey. I’m here if you need a friend
This song took me back to when I was a little girl getting my hair combed. My Mom would play music while she combed my hair. I miss her so much!

FACTS!!!

The BeeGees are the greatest song writers of all time ! IMHO
This has to be one of the saddest songs ever written. He's asking metaphysical questions that can't be answered! Rain from falling? Sun from shining? Damn!
Mark Newsome the bee gees wrote it. They are great song writers.
Another unanswerable "you simply can't" question is how can you and a broken heart?....
*You simply can't*
I didn’t know this! Such great talent on both ends. God bless!
Spiritually only Jesus can do that kind of work mending broken hearts dealing with sunshine and rain falling
@@mamiemclachlan7699 oh, good lord

Well it is a cover, so also thank the BeeGee's

50 years later...and far way better of any music in the charts today. Nobody sang or will sing the word "tomorrow" like this....
About two weeks ago, on the last day of our first college term, my roommate and I both sat on our beds and listened to this song on my speaker. Complete silence the whole song, just reminiscing on the term and the many more to come. Thanks Mr Green.
Listening to the BeeGees, who wrote it to celebrate their reunion after a split up, they do a brillint job, however Al just puts his genius soul spin into it changing it to be unrecognisable. Love the result. Totally mesmorising, simply beautiful and timeless.
This song is just how I feel. Lost my wife less than a month ago and my heart is broken no matter how hard I try to pretend that I am alright. I am just masking the pain 💔
Prayers to you and your family, and I pray that your wife's memories will see you during these dark minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years ahead🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
Me paso lo mismo 6 meses atras si ya paso tiempo pero les digo una cosa hoy dia la extraño aun mas. mi vida partio junto con ella cuanto te extraño mi amor .
May God Almighty pour his grace upon you♥️♥️🙏🏽
I lost my wife of 20 years.. 3 years ago....it hurts like hell..right now. Sorry for your loss
@@jamaingross8704 yes it does hurt like hell. The loneliness is the worst part. I don't have any motivation to do anything with anyone and when I do, I am thinking about our time together. Sorry for your loss
This is my mom's FAVORITE song. This brought back memories when I was a kid in Belize... we didn't have T.V and my mom listened to this song over and over... my sister and I knew this song word for word by 8 yrs old. 😍🥰🤩 This song ALWAYS want me to slow dance😇😊❤
Currently listening in Belize.
I'm listening love to you and your sister, my heart goes out to you both, ❤️ I've had a broken heart
This was my dads 👨 Favourite song 🎵 it's brought back memories, .. we didn't have TV and dad listened to al green on the record I remember this song wow , what a inspiration to have at that age .
Pain is love..thats the cliché which is true my friend.
Beautiful story. Thanks for sharing...😊💫
One of my late husbands favourite songs. We grew up with your music. Thank you so much for being in our lives even though I'm on my own now. ❤
My momma,uncle and aunties play this song all the time when I was young. Now they all gone, I miss them so much I had great moments with them back in the 90s. I will meet them again one day!🙏🏽😢🥺
They are all there waiting. Never forgotten.
Music had meaning back then i live in those days even now. Music today is scrap....
Geneva Thomas I feel your pain. I too have lost my parents as well as all my aunts and uncles. Thank the Good Lord we have wonderful memories to cherish until we meet again.
I can relate to all of that...we'll see them one day.
Same here. This song is so deep.... maaaayn, times like this...these are songs to look and listen to back on.
I'm 31, and Al make me feel like I lived in his era. It's just too relatable and universal. His music truly do stand up against the test of time
This song was recorded 4 years before I was even born and I could listen to this over and over again.
Oh stop it he betrayed himself to please others.
When you lose someone so dear to you, its called the BIG CRY. When i lost my Dad. Thats the BIG CRY I went through !!!😢
I'm 68 years old and I still love that sound.❤️Many emotions ❤️❤️
Hello.. Evelin compliment to you and your family, I love your insights on comments how are you?
I lost my MOM .... AL's rendition of this song is going right through to HEAVEN... MOM I LOVE YOU
I know the feeling. What you stated hit homes. Truly what brought me back to this. Lost my Mom 4 years ago. Then, I thought about the group. There's only one left. Feel like he should be given his flowers while he's here. They( BeeGees) wrote some of the best. My mom listened to them all the time. Not just Disco but Real RNB. From Al to Destiny Child. Still listening in home and car. Would love to see Soul Train and BET honor them instead of this " Twerking and Naked mess out here now.
Al Greene is a true great! I'm 60yrs young, and Mom had his albums, and tried getting my 2 left feet to dance.. No luck!! Love you Al!!!
Mr. Green! Mr. Green! A walking god! My Momma used to tell me how I need to listen to AL Green because "that man was hurt bad and was truly heartbroken... you can hear it between verses in what he sings"
My Momma left this great blue and green four years ago, and there was no one smarter. Long live the echos of Al Green down hallways and out summer windows!
This song makes me cry harder than anything. It’s a close tie with my mom passing away at fifteen. I truly feel alone in this world and I find myself asking the same questions you ask in the lyrics. I’ve struggled with depression my entire life and people treating me like I was garbage since I can remember. The only thing that I can find comforting is the fact that your lyrics speak to my soul and that doesn’t make me as alone.
Hi Mars R. I just listened to this right now, it’s been years! We would all be at our grandparents house, music outside playing, uncles all singing! Now it is going on a year since loosing my beautiful mom! Kisses all the way to heaven mom and dad and uncles!!! God bless y’all!!! ♥️😥♥️😥♥️😥♥️🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Healing and love sent speedily to you You're not alone ! X
Sending you love mars ❤️ feel you 100
Jesus loves u. U r not alone. U r valuable to him enough that he suffered and died for u and all who believe in Him. Open your heart and let him in. He will give u a love this world cannot give. God bless u.
Mars Reynold, I saw your comment and was touched by it. Sorry you list your Mom at such an early age, just remember you're not alone in this World, find solace in the Lord, find a church group, not the ones who Judge you, but the ones who embrace you. In the meantime, like me, I have been through so much, but I never lost my smile. These songs helps me to not think about the negative aspects of life, but creates great energy, peace, and enthusiasm about my path. I pray for everlasting peace in your life. Be bless my dear.
Al you are so loved. I am 52 years old and I was listening to your music as a very little girl because my mom played your music almost on a daily basis. By the time I was 10 I knew every song of yours through and through. I have always listened to your music, it just does something to my soul. I have been up since 6:30 a.m. working and listening to you Al Green!!! Thank you for your legendary sound and legacy of music.
💪🏽💪🏽💜
I've loved this song 50 years ago when the Bee Gees put it out... but Al's version... A. Whole. 'Nuther. Level!!!
Wow i didnt knew...
You mean the Bee Gees took this song from Al Green
@@djspin1966 No... The Bee Gees wrote and recorded this song. Al Green's cover version is better than the original, IMO....
@@djspin1966 learn your history young one. This is the bee gees song.
@@djspin1966 Sorry dear internet friend and lover of music this song belongs to the BeeGees!! 70's classic.
Ahhhh, the smoothness of Al's voice and the beauty of a BeeGees song. Is there anything better? Takes me back to those days when music moved me, spoke to me.
I'm 23 years old and from the small island St. Lucia and my mother loves Al Green. Listening to his music bring peace to my soul ❤
I’m crying! It’s tough when that special one has moved on. Al Green, ultimate voice of soul! Awesome sound quality!
I feel you my Sister
I'm reminded of my youth days and when I want to be left alone, I will listern to Al Green , one of the greatest musicians
Yeah he says it like it is and his voice is awesome I agree6
Ifill you tbell
In the month of December 2023, I continually played this song. It accurately described where I was that whole year. I was laid off from my job. On the verge of being evicted from my apartment. And to top it off my health deteriorated, I was hospitalized, and diagnosed with congestive heart failure. But GOD! In only a few months I see great doctors who prescribed meds that are helping me get better. I take walks in the park for exercise. I'm finding I love nature. The issue with my apartment was resolved. And I am well enough to volunteer at the local food bank a few times a week doing administrative work. I love it! And they even offered me a job there! Plus I am now enrolled in a trade school taking online classes. Now when I listen to this great song, the ending "I want to live again" is now true for me. Don't give up! The best is yet to come for YOU. If you are feeling like a loser, just know that things can change for you and YOU CAN BE A WINNER. Give GOD a chance, trust in his love for you.
Beautiful testimony thanks for sharing
