This song always brings me tears of joy because I was in a toxic relationship for 10 years and now I’m finally free and now I have someone who genuinely loves me. Thank you God. ❤️🙏🏽
Ooooooooooooo but ask yourself is all that gone and are your insecurities from there coming with you if not you won if so welcome to the next set of headaches
I missing my Husband that lost 290 days go. But I sure do thank God you Heavenly Father for the most wonderful 17 years of our lives together as one. I miss him.i love him. And now my Husband is in Heaven with my Heaven Father. #IndianGiver.😪

I used to hear my mom play this song all of the time once I took a listen I loved it ❤ I remember the old school radio station spinning it in addition to every cookout given by family.
Haven't heard this since I left detroit in the 80s love one not too many people know that song i even forgot about it haven't heard it since the 80s from Detroit on the radio in the 80s but ihave been in ga since the 80s never heard that down here
It's great to hear sisters/women thanking God for a good man. I try to be a Good Man for my wife and a good example for my daughter. This song is so powerful and positively uplifting! We need more of these! Until then, replay! LOL
As a NewYorker who was out+about clubbing in the 80’s, THIS anthem is one we fondly remember & treasure! With the passage of time, we’ve seen God perform COUNTLESS miracles!
The day that I got married I dedicated this song to my husband & invited everyone to the dance floor with us. We would have been married 25yrs this October. But he went to rest in the arms of our Lord Jesus Christ. R. I. P. Michael💔
This song is STRONGER THAN ANY virus that hits this evil planet. GOD HAS ALL THE POWER---- THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE ! NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST ME SHALL PROSPER......yall remember that.
25 and I agree. Lots of people our age will call you corny for listening to this in your spare time because the devil really has our generation in a chokehold.
@@kofi8453 I truly feel a deep sorrow for this generation. Idc What people Say I Keep Listening . It’s Sad there is no Such Thing as “being yourself “ anymore.
I'm 23 years old & this is my mama SHHHHHHIT. She loves this song while she's driving. Always request me for years to play this song off of my aux to her car 💪🏾🥰 #BALCKMAGIC
I have loved this song for years.....I do mean YEARS!!! Have listened to it as a single woman, as a single mom. In my 20's, through my 30's, 40's up til this current day. I'm sitting here well past 50, almost 60 thinking, "Wow this is my story". After nearly 20 years of giving my time, affection, money, praise and energy to God (instead of a man)... God groomed me during those years to be a wife. And, when most people say, "oh if I'm not married by now then it ain't happening"....... I saw an old HS classmate on FB and we are now married 2 and a half years. In my mid 50's!!!!!!!!!! And I was 35 pounds overweight, going to work on the bus. I thank my heavenly Father! I do. I'm like, "hold up, wait, this is my song FOR REAL REAL". HAHAHAHA. God is good!
I just noticed the lyrics properly right now too 🙂 the universe works in the strangest and most beautiful ways. I think we hear it when we are ready too or most need too 🌞 ❤️ what a fucking jam eh
I'm her for Thanksgivin 2024, Alicia's beautiful song came out the year I graduated High school & still here...I want to thank you Heavenly Father for every good & perfect gift that comes from above Amen
Wow, what a coincidence. This song was uploaded ten years ago today and also its my birthday.... Thank you Heavenly Father for allowing me to see 39 years on this Earth... 09/23/1981 Toledo, Ohio....

This song takes me back to when my parents used to throw house parties (the original house parties) and my aunts were in the kitchen frying fish and cooking spaghetti. Thats what they did in Detroit back in the 80's.

This is the ultimate song of appreciation for your intentional seeds of thought being watered by the cosmos to help you manifest your truest reflection. A true form of Co-Creative Unconditional Love.....Divine Masculine & Divine Feminine Balance. Let all resonating souls say....Ase'....and so it is....believe that beloveds. 💓 Love to the universal tribe of real love. ✌ I Love this song. Thank you ancestors for the confirmation.
This came out when I was only 2. But I remember my mother playing it at house parties and I use to sing it. But here I am 43 and I discovered it again. And I'm married 17 years this year 2022. And these words are deep. They don't make real music no more.

Happy anniversary to both of you and may god bless you always. This was god's blessing for you be together forever.

Love Chicago, first city and state (IL) I visited when I visited the states for my first time in 2017...visiting my best friend (we got to know each other in Eindhoven, Netherlands in 2015). Its an amazing city, even was checking out Green Mills....went there from 11pm to 5 am....smoking some weed after that....well i didnt, at least not actively hahaha
@Adam Hansen I guess so! If I lived there I would go regularly. Great atmosphere, great music...
@Adam Hansen If I come back to the states after this covid nonsense we could go together and enjoy some smooth jazz....hmmm yeah george duke...outstanding jazz/funk musician....he 'n the rhodes...
NYC Jam too
U ant never lied, step on
Rest peacefully DMX. If it wasn’t for him I wouldn’t know about this song
Same here

Beautiful. He will definitely be missed.

I want to thank you
Heavenly Father for shining your light on me
You sent me someone who really loves me

It's been a long time since I had someone who loves me
I owe my thanks to Thee
I know it could not happen without your love
Ooh without your love
It took a long time for it to happen
But I knew those nights I prayed
That you would send me someone who's real
And not no one for play
I kept the faith
And didn't worry
My nights grew longer than the days
Until one day
It really happen
Sent true love my way
I know it couldn't have happened without you
Ooh without you
When the time is right
He'll fill your life with love and care
Believe
And He'll be there
Just do all right
Don't do no wrong
And the keep the faith
The Lord will shine his light your way
Thank you Father
For shining your light on me
I prayed long time
For it to happen
I did because I believe
He makes me happy
So very happy
I don't know how to be
It's been a long time
Since I had someone who love me
I owe my thanks to Thee
I know it couldn't have happened without you
Ooh without you
I know it couldn't have happened without your love
Ooh without your love
(My nights were long and blue, until he sent me you)

This is my promise song! Been PATIENTLY waiting for seven years....I'm playing this at my wedding! Totally believing in God for a godly spouse! :-)
When you find him don't make him wait longer then you did with your ex boyfriends. Lol
I said the exact same thing....I'm singing this when I get to the altar lol we rocking out!!!
They don't make music like this anymore. That is why oldies are still popular because today's music does not have the same quality.
Sarah Hague he will do it
This came out when I was only 2. But I remember my mother playing it at house parties and I use to sing it. But here I am 43 and I discovered it again. And I'm married 17 years this year 2022. And these words are deep. They don't make real music no more.
*A timeless hit never to be repeated as is ever again...pure soul.*
A visit from the past.💯🎶
No one has touched this song. Thank God.
I agree 🙂
@@gregoryyancey6081nah a group called fu-shunickens remade this song in ‘91.
@@sugardaddy1williams67 u8jj Ojibwa j Ohio⁸j⁸
I'm still jamming and listening to this claasic song in 2024 and forever❤❤❤❤❤
Q-Tip and Busta brought me here...love it when hip hop samples these soulful sounds...make me wanna do a jig anywhere and every where.
Makes you wonder don't it...hip hop ain't all bad...keepin' us all connected to our roots!!
BrotherHoodXhERU when they do it right. hell yeah. certain artist still hold it down.
mysticalcarter i agree with you but the song would have been a lot better without lil wayne and kanye right ?
***** No he don't....nothing like the original. 50 Cent is a parasite....tell him to make something original.
i think they could've sampled a better part of the song, instead of just the start :/ I was rather disappointed.
Where is the time machine...I wanna go back 😪
Darrell Coleman yes, I wish I could go back to 82' ❤
me too!
Save me a seat my brother!!!
I wanna come too please!!!
Darrell Coleman yes that part

Whose still listening to this song in 2023? I know I am. I love this song so much. When you finally meet that person that truly loves you for you is a blessing. "Someone whose real and not no one for play"
Born in 71... this kinda music NEVER dies!! This is what I listen to every day...70's and 80's old skool...IT'S CLASSIC!! Some music of today I just can't stand it...for instance Take That...who the hell are they?????
Exactly I was born in 71 too in February music like this will always be in my heart
Who actually is that 😂😂😂
Dillon
I was born in '87.
And yet I mostly listen to 70's Funk & Soul. I was definitely born in the wrong decade. 🤦🏾
Listening in 2021. Had to listen...this song touched my heart
Me too, this still my jam 🔥🔥🔥
Werd..!!
Same!! It means so much more today, than ever!!🙌🏾🙌🏾
✊🏾🙏🏾🎼🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾📐🏴🟣💥💥💥
Exactly!!
Here because the weeknd sampled this on sacrifice!! Not my first time seeing this song sampled as Busta Rhymes and Chris Brown both sampled this classic ✨
I question the intelligence of ANYONE who doesn't consider this a gospel song.
It is a godspell song 🤲🏿✊🏿
It's Always been in my Sunday Playlist 🙌🏽 I dnt normally read comments but I had time today for your #Fact 🫶🏽 Blessings on Blessings to ya ❣️
I do çonsider it an inspirational song myself I thank my dear mother for always playing it so whenever I miss her it brings a smile to my face.
@@rashaunacochran4630it is inspirational 👏 ❤ I love this song for that reason it might have a disco funk beat but it moves your spirit.
I question the intelligence of a creature who understand music as an instrument of hate. 😂 #musicisnotarace
This is for the Believers.
Patricia Williams yes sir
❤❤❤❤❤💋😘..
Yep💯
*believing intensifies* 😖
Fire for life
Praying that my husband and I will be singing and dedicating this beautiful song to our Heavenly Father, on our 15th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY coming up on Dec. 3, 2021. This is truly Our Story! Thank You! Father YAHUWAH.
