My 13 year old just walked in and said, "Ma I know that song." 👀 "Boy sit down. You don't know nothing bout this." He starts to sing the song word for word y'all...with emotion. Somebody come get him. Lenny still capturing the hearts of the young and old.
Damn I love my wife so much!! I hope one day my daughter will find someone who loves her as much as I love her mother! Without her I wouldn't be the man I am today!!

My MOTHER DEDICATED THIS SONG TO ME SHE PASSED AWAY A YEAR AGO THIS PAIN WILL NEVER HEAL IM IN TEARS WRITING THIS I LOVE YOU MOMMA IM DOWN HERE SHINNING FOR YOU MOM YOU LIVING THROUGH ME
This song randomly popped into my head. But I couldnt for the life of me, remember who sang it or the name of the song. So I called my uncle. I said "Unc, what's that song where dude be like OH OH OH OH OH OH OHHHH." He said "That's Lenny William's boy!...... you must bouta get you some ass." 😂😂. Thanks Unc 🙏
No matter how much imperfect people try to force you into being robotic, that will never happen because we will always be human with natural emotions!!!!! Just let 'em flow baby, let those tears flow without guilt or shame!!!
I am here in 2024. My Baby Sister and I were on a road trip together and she asked me to play this song for her. And I am from The Tower of Power time. I had never heard this song! I am 25 years older than Baby Sister, damn! I thought that I heard it all. Love Tower of Power, Lenny Williams and all of that other great Soulful and Funk music that rocked our souls! Such a great time for music. Crazy that my Baby Sister loves the same music that I do.❤😊❤ XOXO
What A Jamm! 19 years old living in B'ham Al. On my way to work learning to do plumbing. I got to work and went to get in the truck to go to a job. Then I turned on the radio and heard this Jamm. It stopped me in my tracks. I didn't leave the shop until I heard this whole song. WOW, what a profound song and Lenny put his all into it. Unforgettable! Still a great song.💯💯✌️👍
Till you see the young man that put his soul into this song in Tyler Perry’s Play Madea’s Happy Family! Ugh. But there’s nothing like the original. My generation will never know good music like this. It’s so sad. People take love as a joke now!
My dad used to sing this song too my mother when she got mad at him for not doing something around house that he should have done he played this song and start singing it to her and instantly she would be smiling at him works every time I always wanted unconditional love I never got it maybe one day I will one of my favorite old school songs rest in peace momma
Im Asian but everyone turn necks when they see a young asian man play this song this is what i called real love music right here you would have to be real hurt to write a song like this hands down to this generation of music though
DAMN ,IT'S BEEN 15 MONTH SINCE I LOSS MY BELOVED HUSBAND I JUST CAN'T BELIEVED HE GONE EVERY TIME I LISTEN TO THIS SONG TEARS JUST COME FROM MY EYES DAMN LEE I LOVE YOU AND MISSING YOU LIKE CRAZY R.I.P. BABY.
The fact of the matter is: When you're in love with your queen so much that it hurts, you know the emotion is not only raw, but real. We don't deserve women. Uplift your women, Kings. They matter. They absolutely matter.
Yessir I agree with you 100%. Excuse me my brothers, but if we truly, madly, deeply love our significant other then we must make her feel ALIVE, WANTED, LOVED. Just as we would expect the same back from our lovers. Don't take things for granted, you don't and won't know what a valuable asset part of your life is lost until it's really gone and that's when your world will come crashing, slowly tumbling down, picking at your emotions and has no mercy on how you completely feel about it.....it's true because I'm going through a crisis right now in my relationship. Praying and hoping to make it to our 8th year anniversary in Oct, 2021.
+Rashid Rhodes Both men and women are responsible for fueling the expressions of love to each other. I love you,black woman,just help me communicate this truth to you,with my heart,not just my tongue. Not referring to you personally,but the black woman,period.
I was born in 93 and I swear my parents *MADE* us listen to this along with other music from the 60s 70s and Early 80s like Earth, Wind and Fire, Teddy Pendergrass, The O'Jays, The Temptations, The Whispers, The Chi-lites, Harold Melvin & The BlueNotes, Gladys Knight & The Pips, Diana Ross, Blue Magic, The Gap Band, & Michael Jackson (1993 - 2005) RIP to my childhood
william4939 it's OK I was born into the wrong generation and I don't like it but I listened to these types of songs 2000 2001-04 sucks as a generation (sorry to the some)
This song makes me cry 😂I miss my ex I saw him before he passed away I was telling him I was happy for him & his wife & wishing them many more years he passed away my heart hearts for his wife and me it was my birthday week it hurt me because I had just saw him at the gas station while I was getting my gas to hit the highway for my birthday someone called my mom to tell me in Louisiana that he passed away he was a true gentleman and I will always love him & his wife ❤❤❤❤❤!
This is the music that made black love unbreakable! Black family we gotta bring the love back and honor the black woman ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿 We have gone astray from what made us unbreakable LOVE
This song came out a week after I graduated high school 😊. It was being played in all the clubs around town. My friends and I thought the song was for "old" people 😂. Now look who's "old"😂
Everytime I hear this song I cry, when I was younger my grandmother and grandpa would play this together and when my grandpa got sick my grandma would play this over and over Again and after he died this would play throughout the house... I cried on the night of his funeral to this song... I’ll always cherish this song because of the memories attached to it ❤️💔
Keith Sweat did. At no time in this song is he begging. He's speaking from beginning to end about his love to the subject of this song. I've listen to this song many times over the last 40 years, and never understood it's meaning until I heard it with new ears this morning. The song is a confession of love to a woman whom was there when he needed her most, and continues to be with him through it all.
😂😂What about K-ci? He begged for his lady to come back after an hour. He said: 🎤 it's been an hour and that's too long 🎤 Seriously, this song reminds me of when a friend of my cousin was hit by a car and died in the projects. This song came on V103 smooth dusties, you know when he would talk real gentle and smooth at night. I think it was called whispers in the night or something like that, here in Chicago. I was so sad
1. That Twista/Kanye song is 👌🏽 2. I'm from the UK and ashamed to say I didn't know who Lenny Williams was until after I heard Overnight Celebrity. 3. Lenny Williams ❤🔥 4. Your quote from the song - that's prob what Diddy was telling all those people 🤢
I stumbled to this song in a small town radio station one night when I was driving on a empty road across New Mexico on a clear night , I a 27 Hispanic male and I had never listened to soul music before, that lonely night I understood why it’s called like that , the lyrics,music and the way he sings it honestly took me on a outer body experience. I’m glad my internet reception was bad which persuaded me to switch in to the radio..
Yes we as black MEN need to get back to honoring our WOMAN and truly LOVING them as we were created to do, it will bring back our rightful place in the universe
He song this song with a felling to the women love he is telling her how he really fell about her know matter whot she do that's the wrong way to put it the way he should put it that she did respecked him love is a m that's way he Stell love her that is strong love to him meny men wouldn't said that way Betty mc gill
My husband Tony would play this when I would be upset with him and though I knew he meant every word I still played mad. RIH love. I miss you Tony so much. We never say goodbye always see you later. Until I see you 22yrs
I been listening to this song for 30 years and never knew that was what he was saying. I use to say if its the end of the will 🤦😂. My daughter that was 29 at the time, said ma, that is not what he is saying. She said he is saying if its in God's will

I just had a bad break up with the love of my life & I been depressed, if you're going through something my advice to you is to pray to God & keep faith🙏 It'll get better just take it a day at a time, it's not easy to just forget about a person you wanted to spend the rest of your life with but we all have to stay strong💪Prayer works🙏 #GODISREAL😇💯💯💯
This is the NUMBER ONE pleading full of emotion love songs ever made!!! Every black artist, even the icons, have paid homage to this song..NOTHING can touch it! This man sang from his soul...
I know we all appreciate Lenny’s voice and the lyrics of this song, but the musical arrangement is CRAZY GOOD!! The melodies, the surging of sound at certain places, etc. gives me goosebumps.
I'm 24 & this is my favorite song. My grandmother played this record so much I grew to love and understand the meaning behind it. Played the song for my wife to be and we cried together for the first time and I knew she was the one for me & I couldn't live without her. She my Queen. She understands me & helps with my depression from tramtic events that occurred to me at a young age. This song is LIFE & I appreciate Lenny for having this song in his soul to give to the people 💯💯 #Therapy
Good to hear you're married, dude. I'm 24 too and still trying to get it together but the more I see people, the more i realize nobody has it together lol. Best of luck and happy years to you and your wife!
About 12yrs ago this song came on the radio when I was pulling out of Lego Land with the kids my 7yr old son at the time started signing this me and my wife fell out . I will never forget that day as long as I live.
My 13 year old just walked in and said, "Ma I know that song." 👀 "Boy sit down. You don't know nothing bout this." He starts to sing the song word for word y'all...with emotion. Somebody come get him. Lenny still capturing the hearts of the young and old.
Lol to cute ..... He going to treat a woman right one day
😂😂👍🏽
My 14 Year Old Son is da same
Living Truth some youth still know good music when they hear it
Why did you make Lenny cry he's FINE....
Damn I love my wife so much!! I hope one day my daughter will find someone who loves her as much as I love her mother! Without her I wouldn't be the man I am today!!
Aarion Eyetoo always instill that in her!
That s great
Be sure she knows how to love herself first. All else is icing on the cake that's got love fully baked in.
I wish my ex-husband would have love me like this......I still love him sooooooo much! Real true love goes with you to the grave!
You're a good man by the sound of it, but she must be one heck of a lady too !!!
Idc if she 80 years old... I want to meet this woman he singing about!!! ... CLASSIC SONG!!!

Michael, I would love you forever! To love a real woman is your blessing and hers! 💋

Lenny Williams: "Yes"
😂😂😂
Perfection in commentary 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Man, his range is crazy 👏👏👏
Kelly
It's all autotune now.
Hell yeahh
LMBO so true
Ikr!!!! He's so talented! He is truly singing from his heart
I stumbled to this song in a small town radio station one night when I was driving on a empty road across New Mexico on a clear night , I a 27 Hispanic male and I had never listened to soul music before, that lonely night I understood why it’s called like that , the lyrics,music and the way he sings it honestly took me on a outer body experience. I’m glad my internet reception was bad which persuaded me to switch in to the radio..
❤
Lol, yup.
This song was meant for you to hear.
It's deep right ❤
This song touched your inner soul I bet!!
SPEECHLESS...FROM THE DEPTHS OF HIS SOUL LENNY WILLIAMS SANG THIS. GEEEEEZUS! THANK YOU BROTHER!
Black people has come a long way in the world of music. We are blessed y'all ♥
Lol of course ,We invented it
@@masterchief2.086 Invented music? No one group of ppl invented music...
Yes we are, & the blessings will keep coming🙌🙌🙌
Thank you Lenny Williams for making music lifting women up instead of music that break women down💜🖤
Love you
Oms

Yes we as black MEN need to get back to honoring our WOMAN and truly LOVING them as we were created to do, it will bring back our rightful place in the universe

This is the reason why "Overnight Celebrity by Twista" Was a heat track
I heard it and was like I recognize this sample. Thanks for reminding me.
Them using that sample made Lenny a lot of money. Lol
@@CoreySmith23803 How is that? Do you mean direct or indirect money & recognition?!
@@johnj9976 Look up the Unsung of Lenny Williams and he'll explain how that sample made him money again.
and they say Kanye West is a genius for making this beat... LOL !
I watched television until television went off. I feel you Lenny
Emma Wilson I remember when they use to go off forreal
Emma Wilson you need me then
Emma Wilson 🙌 lol 🙌
Thick AssNetta I Remember Them Days Too BUT We Must Say "Them Was The Good-Ol Days".

"I watched television until television went off"
They don't know nothing about that!
CLASSIC
" and then I played my records until I just didn't want to hear them anymore..' they don't know about that either..
Lovejazz01 lol
They don't know nothing about the tv. Going off no channels was on
Christina Fox they dont cause back in the day tv went off wasn't no tv shows on all night
Christina Fox I had to ask my mom what that meant XD
"If it's in God's will..."
Oh, how people forget that part!
I been listening to this song for 30 years and never knew that was what he was saying. I use to say if its the end of the will 🤦😂. My daughter that was 29 at the time, said ma, that is not what he is saying. She said he is saying if its in God's will
Yes
Amen

On god ain’t too many niggas our age bumpin shit like this
Tre Womack no cap 💯 u just real ✌🏿

I just had a bad break up with the love of my life & I been depressed, if you're going through something my advice to you is to pray to God & keep faith🙏 It'll get better just take it a day at a time, it's not easy to just forget about a person you wanted to spend the rest of your life with but we all have to stay strong💪Prayer works🙏 #GODISREAL😇💯💯💯
You must’ve had a good woman
Don't listen to much
I pray you've found peace and are feeling better.
Yes, prayers work...
Except when it doesn't.
Lol
@@jaragon2492 it always works the way God planned it to, just may not always be in the way we planned.
What a time to be alive ❤️😭❤️
Most first time listeners miss the fact that this song is actually about 2 women.The one who broke him and the other who fixed him.
Yessir
What?!!!!! I never knew that now I heard the song plenty of times lol didn’t get this understanding I thought it was just 1 woman
That crazy the first I listened all the way through . I was like wait a minute
Oh yes you are SO RIGHT 💖. I love this song when it came out and still playing it in 12/6/2020.

This is the NUMBER ONE pleading full of emotion love songs ever made!!! Every black artist, even the icons, have paid homage to this song..NOTHING can touch it! This man sang from his soul...
Oh wow! I give it to for originality. I love your comment, lol.
Go ahead Virgo. You analyze it all!
@@ShyraR 😁
Absolutely right best love song ever song by an artist❤️❤️
Sho u right!
You can't help BUT think about that special person and tear up when this cut is playing!🎵🎶🥲
Yes lord!!
I know we all appreciate Lenny’s voice and the lyrics of this song, but the musical arrangement is CRAZY GOOD!! The melodies, the surging of sound at certain places, etc. gives me goosebumps.
WELL SAID....!!!
SMOOCHIES!!!!
I can relate.
You are absolutely right
Lenny was the lead singer for tower of power, it should sound nice. Lenny was the lead singer for them, They were 1 of the best bands in the 70s
Especially for the time it was made. Truly God’s will.
I love this song. My mother and father call me Lenny Because I was conceived to this song so they say. That's almost 40 years ago.
Love all his music ❤❤
It’s 2020 and I’m still listening to this. Such a iconic song who else agrees 🤷🏾♂️
Send beer satx
yawn
I do
Me
My gma used to play this as a child growing up and today at the age of 27 I felt what this man song ❤❤❤❤❤❤ classsiccccccccc
🥰Maybe you never been in love ❤️ like I been in love or maybe you never felt the things I felt 💯
I love that part too
I'm listening to this with my husband and..... about to have our first baby!!!!!! Lenny is the truth
Congratulations
Well we know how y’all made it!! Lol Congratulations!!!
Congratulations have you had the baby yet?
I'm 24 & this is my favorite song. My grandmother played this record so much I grew to love and understand the meaning behind it. Played the song for my wife to be and we cried together for the first time and I knew she was the one for me & I couldn't live without her. She my Queen. She understands me & helps with my depression from tramtic events that occurred to me at a young age. This song is LIFE & I appreciate Lenny for having this song in his soul to give to the people 💯💯 #Therapy
Good to hear you're married, dude. I'm 24 too and still trying to get it together but the more I see people, the more i realize nobody has it together lol. Best of luck and happy years to you and your wife!
❤️❤️
Demetrius Hamilton ..say that ..good shit

Of all the comments that I've read so far, this ONE struck me the most. I call it simple truth. Thank you ❤️
This song hits DIFFERENT FROM CHILDHOOD TOO ADULTHOOD WHEN YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND THE SONG 2023
About 12yrs ago this song came on the radio when I was pulling out of Lego Land with the kids my 7yr old son at the time started signing this me and my wife fell out . I will never forget that day as long as I live.
