Who is still listening to this in 2024?? I know I am( true r&b).. they'll never be this kind again.. So let us hold on to it and remember all things that were good
That's what this generation is missing out on. Those slow jams that promote love, dealt with real issues, and definitely put you in the mood. It's still needed.
@mariaclaudiasantos290 Yes. There's another version on the soundtrack to the movie "Dead Presidents" by Jesse and Trina. It sounds good too, just a faster tempo. Oh, and don't forget about Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway. They all sound great.
There's definitely something when white singers will work hard to sound like a black singer but as a black man or woman you simply sound like who you are. It's powerful.
Stephanie and Robert tore this song up 🎤! And they hit those notes like it was nothing🎶...........Effortless talents with a capital T😉.....Perfection👌!
I still luv this song after all these years!! I swear they don't make slow jams like this anymore!! I'm 48 & I luv listening to my 70's, 80's & 90's slow jams
Stephanie is a true vocalist in every since of the word. I love the remake of this song, her and Robert really did a good job they sound so very good together.
Woke up and song in my spirit. Humanity has lost and forgot about true love. I know this song is about two lovers, yet the love between the creator and human is far greater than anything 😌
something told me he was no longer with us, and here I find it to be true after looking for this video.. this song is even more bittersweet for me now..
Still WOW after all these years...the rendition that rivals the original with its sass and swag...RIP RB...Stephanie, you will always be my sweet sensation..
God I just love this darn song ever since I was young. I remember watching the video on Midnight Love on BET and singing it like I was going thru a similar relationship at 11 years old lol. Stephanie Mills is one of my musical idols!
Hi Jerome 👋 I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….
I remember watching this on Video Soul back in the day. Great video and vocals. Stephanie did some great duets. Nice tribute to Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack.
Everytime Steph throw up her hands and 'THAT'S ALL I CAN DO' gets me everytime. some serious song stylin sangin, chemistry and soul all on this track and in this video.
I was 14 in 1988 singing this song like I knew what they were talking about. Now at 48 I definitely know what they’re singing about and I love this song even more
I was in college going through the same issues in this song and it hit the nail on the head. I really loved the vocals of Robert and Stephanie. I am sorry to hear that he passed. He was an underated singer
this is my friend we where so close I found out you were no more that break my heart to hear that news . I remember all the late nights in the studio waiting to work out afterward and we end up going to eat at one of his favorite spot HOT Wings on Melrose you will forever be missed i was thinking of you and so pull this song up my dear Friend Robert Brookins
I have heard this song all my life in a variety of versions. Today is the first time I heard this recording. The song feels so fresh & so clean, clean. I was 9 in 1988 & missed this but thankful to find it.
I've been looking for this song for over 20 years, lol. Great memories of my college days & my 1st adult relationship, thx for posting! I know her personally, my mother & her family went to chuch together back in the day. I still remember meeting her in her dressing room & the cast of The Wiz! Still have the pictures to prove it, lml! 😄

Great song great duet Stephanie and Robert RIP Mr. Brookins saw him in concert 1986 with the Stanley Clarke Band he sang great voice played keys and also bass
I have this cd and I play it like if it just came out , so soothing to listen to . . They dont make music like this anymore . . I b so saddened due to I want to hear more and more
I absolutely loved the original by Roberta and Donny but this one is WOW, how did i miss this version, sexy. So sad about his passing, heart disease takes too many great people too soon.
Stephanie has a history of having good chemistry with the male vocalists she collaborate with but no they didn't date but almost every guy she sings with, she makes it look like its something more
@@djv-anthoni5891 I have never seen a more true perspective. I dont know what's her better gift. Singing or the amazing chemistry she has with every duet
Yeah. Stephanie and Robert look and sound like they've let us in on their relationship, while Roberta sounded too flowery (to me) for the subject matter.
Who is still listening to this in 2024??
I know I am( true r&b).. they'll never be this kind again.. So let us hold on to it and remember all things that were good
I have the 45 of this song.
The version is off the chain ⛓️
Absolutely!! Rest Well, Mr.Brookins!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Midnight Love on BET
They would play this video every night.
Miss the 80s...
I got choked up at this comment. Midnight love/video soul...... just a different time back then.
@@Charlesbjtown exactly I miss those days
Man one of those Quiet Storm classics. Man I miss the quiet storm days.
That's what this generation is missing out on. Those slow jams that promote love, dealt with real issues, and definitely put you in the mood.
It's still needed.
Stephanie and Robet sang the hell out of this song! REAL SOUL AND PASSION!
Sho did!
I never knew anything about this brother he is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
She was DEFINITELY feeling him. Please understand it wasn't just for the camera either. That look @ 4:11.....LAWWD!!
@@anyright8683 Dude is cold.
There's something about a Black man's strong and powerful voice. Rest easy Robert. Rest in perfect peace.
He passed? What caused it?
@@carameldiva5131 He had a heart attack in 2009
I had no idea he passed.... But maybe I forgot.... Rest In Paradise Mr Brookins.... Singing In The "Heavenly Choir"🙏🏾🙏🏾❤🎤🎼
He passed? No Idea... Rip
This is Mervins brother. ✊👍💯
Extraordinary vocals. Still giving me goosebumps ❤🔥
This version is addictive. Sometimes it brings me to tears
Me too 🇧🇷
Me three! ❤
@@ednasilva6332❤
Omg! Is it a version?
@mariaclaudiasantos290 Yes. There's another version on the soundtrack to the movie "Dead Presidents" by Jesse and Trina. It sounds good too, just a faster tempo. Oh, and don't forget about Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway. They all sound great.

Exactly! Ain't nothing like the real thing. 💯👊🏽💥

Robert Brookins, from Del Paso Heights ghetto in Sacramento California. Peace and love. RIP
Stephanie and Robert tore this song up 🎤! And they hit those notes like it was nothing🎶...........Effortless talents with a capital T😉.....Perfection👌!
Agreed!
I’m surprised she didn’t have ex singing wit er on this song. His name is Michael Jackson ✌🏿
❤❤❤❤
I still luv this song after all these years!! I swear they don't make slow jams like this anymore!! I'm 48 & I luv listening to my 70's, 80's & 90's slow jams
MY GOD THERE WAS SOMETHING ABOUT LOVE SONGS IN THE 80s
Kathy Williams. Oh yea!!😁
Kathy Williams I know right... back then we were respectful that's for sure!
PLEASE NEVER DELETE THIS SONG!! thanx
I love this song
🔥🔥🔥🔥
There is so much power in Stephanie Mills voice. I've loved her since I was a kid.
Stephanie has always been so fly!
Always
Stephanie and Robert put it down with this one!!!
Shit! Where has this kind of music gone?
All due respect...Mr. Donny Hathaway (RIP) and Ms. Robert Flack...but this version blows the original out of the water. B1👊🏿

Stephanie is gorgeous and Robert is handsome! This video overflows with "Fabulosity" !
Stephanie is a true vocalist in every since of the word. I love the remake of this song, her and Robert really did a good job they sound so very good together.
I WAS 14 YEARS OLD LOVING THE HECK OUT OF THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!! STANDING IN THE MIRROR SINGING IT!!!!!!!!!!!! OOOOO ROBERT, TELL WHERE!!!!!!!!!!!

When you have two SANGERS who can BLOW like this, you can't miss. They MURDERED this song !!! One of the best R&B remakes of all time.
Woke up and song in my spirit. Humanity has lost and forgot about true love. I know this song is about two lovers, yet the love between the creator and human is far greater than anything 😌
AMEN😅😅

He said, “I really wanna give it to you”. And he looked straight in her face. I believe you Robert. 😆 Rest in love and music!
Great video with two great singers. That kiss is hot but tasteful. May Robert Brookins rest in peace.
I cannot go a week without hearing this version!
It's 2019, and the song still flows like silk in the wind.

Old school music at its best..
I absolutely loved the original by Roberta and Donny but this one is WOW, how did i miss this version, sexy. So sad about his passing, heart disease takes too many great people too soon.
Love Stephanie's swagger from 3:00 to 3:05.
Happy Birthday World Class Arian Music Empress!! ( March 22) 💘 💃
2 Beautiful People!!! Literally!!
Just makes me weak the chemistry they have singing this song one of my favorites
Were they ever a couple? Good chemistry. Fine Man. Stephanie kills it as usual. 8- )
Stephanie has a history of having good chemistry with the male vocalists she collaborate with but no they didn't date but almost every guy she sings with, she makes it look like its something more
Stephanie Mills dated Jeffery Daniel of shalamar for a while
@@djv-anthoni5891 I have never seen a more true perspective. I dont know what's her better gift. Singing or the amazing chemistry she has with every duet
@@thepromiseman7745, not only did Stephanie Mills date Jeffrey Daniels, Stephanie Mills was once married to Jeffrey Daniels...... March 16, 2020.
the promise man They were married for a minute. That’s exactly how long it lasted, a minute
Rip Robert b....damn Stephanie Mills is so fineeeeeeee
Beautiful remake!!!
CLASSIC - No dis to Donnie and Roberta, but I always thought this was the best version. Plus they really looked like they were gettin it in.
Great chemistry
Yeah. Stephanie and Robert look and sound like they've let us in on their relationship, while Roberta sounded too flowery (to me) for the subject matter.
So so beautiful!
Our Children need Midnight Love...they are missing some good music.
