    the fact is it was his neices' wedding, he had a brother and sister who died before him. that was his sisters daughter, bet we'd all love to have an uncle like Luther. RIP

    This was my sister's wedding song, my sister cried all the way down the asile because one of her dear freinds from high school was singing the song. It was truly beautiful, there was not a dry eye in the house, Love is such a beautiful thing!

    The little boy at 1:08 is me. I was the ring bearer for my uncle's wedding. Though I do remember some guy who singed really well, my family told me that I was uneasy because I was one of those energetic kids and just standing there for that long played on me lol I was ready to go. As I got older I listened to Luther and the greatness he spilled out with his voice will never be mimicked ever again, I vaguely remember Luther coming to me after saying "This is a special moment for your family and one day you'll be on the other side of the suit". RIP

    What an incredible voice this man had. It's a shame he was taken from this world so young. How much more genuinely good music might we have had if he were still with us? It seems there's no chance of having another who can sing like this. That is if you consider what they do nowadays "singing". Luther brought a lot of joy to many people I have known. Long live this music.

    What a beautiful song.It's hard to believe that this was luthers very 1st time singing this song in public but it is & he had written it 2 days prior.what a beautiful wedding gift to his niece! Luther was blessed with the sexiest voice ever! What a man!! I just wish we got to see him sing the whole song without the interuption from the famous kids at the end.but we are blessed with what we got.R.I.P. Luther & thank you for all the beauty you left with us!We were so lucky to have him!!So lucky!!
