Love Mr. Ingram. I took care of him at St. Louis University Hospital until the day he died. Great soul, and gave us great music. God Bless his Soul. 🙏🏽
I tip my hat to you for your service to humanity, sounds like you met many different types of people, all of them in need of care. I hope you are enjoying your life, thank you !
They just don't write songs like this. Songs that just rip out your heart. Not to mention the soul in his voice! This is just an amazing live performance.
Now a days you have men running around with blonde hair and weaves....times have changed...only God knows what we will be looking like 50 years from now.!
48 years old, white chick here and I never been the other chick, Luther you got heart and soul, just like Luther Vandross. Music is the 70s had raw emotions, crap today has nothing.
I'm so thankful that I was born in this era, these classics had such purpose and depth to them all we had to do is to put these records on and let them speak for you,no auto tunes, just straight from the heart
OMG Coco Melanin You just hit a homerun with those comments 🎯 This beautiful classic just moves one's soul in the right direction 4SURE !!!! I'm soooooo happy I grew up on this magical sound so grateful to have lived through this era of beautiful music this kind of music will never go out of style 💃💃🥰🥰 What a MASTERPIECE!!!!! A trip down memory lane good ode days I was in my twenties carefree 😛💞🎊🍷👌Still listening how about May 12 2022
Is it just me? Why can all the old school singers sing without auto-tune and backing tracks, yet today's singers need a lot of studio tricks to sound good (plus they can't sing live). Much more talent back in the day. If lovin' old school more is wrong I don't don't wanna be right.
Videos like this always make me wish I would've been around in the 70's. It looks so cool and those clothes are everything. And don't get me started on the music... lawd have mercy! Every genre from that decade back then I absolutely love. It seems like almost everyone back then had naturally beautiful voices. It took talent to sing in those days and that's what I admire. That's why I love people like Adele and Bruno Mars for today's generation, they're naturally talented and they prove that in their live performances.
Would have loved to see Luther Ingram, Sly and the Family Stone, Parliment-Funkadelic, Bootsy Collins, Marvin Gaye, The Stylistics, the Spinners and so so many others live in the 70's.
Oh yeah you guys missed a good decade,,mostly all the good songs came fro that era..I lived thru it,,seen it...no more like the 70s,,this song was like kind of coming about being in love with the wrong person,,but it sounded so good...Rip..Mr. Luther....awesome voice too.
Not tears of joy if they lived it. Heartbreak for everyone but him. Sorry. Love the song and the artist, but I was too young to know the agony of the reality.
So much raw emotion and soul in this song. My two favorite lines: If I can't see you when I want, I'll see you when I can. And: Am I wrong for trying to hold on, to the best thing I ever had?
IM LIKE INSTANTLY HEAD OVA HEALS 4 THIS MAN !!! AND ITS THE PASSION IN HIS GOD GIVEN VOICE , HEARD THIS SONG FOR YEARS BUT BARELY SEEING HIM IN THIS VIDEO NOW !!! AND sonnyGTA your so right about everything u said about this video !!!
He was a beautiful Human being that cared so much about others. As someone who grew up with his youngest son from 1st grade thru Highschool, i benefited from the Awesome role model he was, not just the Great entertainer. THANK YOU LUTHER for all you gave to me, as well as the Ingram Family.
I swear some people may agree with me some people may not but the women back then were just as beautiful as the women we have today😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
As a 9 year old, I didn't know what this song was about. Now, as am adult who hasn't heard this song in ages, I didn't realize it was about a married man cheating on his wife. It's amazing how a melody could be so nice until you realize what you are singing. hehe
@@creaturebotman I respectfully disagree. Ha says “You friends tell you it’s no future in loving a married.” He then says “Am I wrong for tryin’ to hold on to the best thing I ever had.” Still a GREAT SONG either way.
@@g2davee151 It was sung, with perhaps slightly altered lyrics, by both females and males. There are other excellent versions of this song on TH-cam. Perhaps he was thinking about the lyrics to one of those?
His Sister was actually my School teacher at Alton High in Alton IL. Before he really became gravely ill he had the intention of forming a band composed of myself and two other of his nephews. Believe it or not both of his nephews had distinct features of famous people. One actually looked like prince the other like baby face. Both could sing a peacock out of her feathers lol R.I.P Master Luther Ingram
Yes indeed lol Yes Brian ( Her Son) was my Best friend. Tony and Mark I Believe are the names of the other two sons. I also lived with Daisy for a bit Wow !! The memories Thank you so much
Sananda Maitreya's Apparition that's an awesome story! Wow, thanks for sharing! I love to hear when people's paths intersected before somebody got famous! Fantastic! Mr. L. Richie's aunt use to babysit me and my brothers! I saw him when I was very young!
so many groups in the 1960's and so many great groups and songs in the 1970's. Gosh, life is short, and I sure miss those days. and lost so many friends. Keep punching!!
This song will always be relevant, because so many of us will find ourselves in situations such as this. It involves such deep love but it involves such deep pain at the same time.
Grew up listening to this and barely at 37 realizing the meaning of it. Boy oh boy it also hits differently when you love someone and can't be together due to your situations.
I paused at the exact same time marker and then scrolled down to see if anyone had seen that... Damn, she's gorgeous... But not in that objectifying way, I'm just like, wow
SMDH,IT'S MY BIRTHDAY TOMORROW THINKING ABOUT THE LOVE OF MY LIFE MY HUSBAND I MISS YOU LEE THIS IS MY FIRST BIRTHDAY WITHOUT YOU REST PEACEFULLY BABY I'M TRY TO ENJOY MYSELF I KNOW YOU WANT ME TOO.....
I haven't heard this song in a while..I forgot how beautiful Luther's voice was. Especially on this particular song...Wow....I love all music... but the old Motown sound cannot be beat...
Neither, I'd dare to say. Both of them are players on a risky immature game that eventually somebody will get hurt no matter how good your game is. What has Murphy's law taught us? Whatever u think might happen - will happen. A player who gets married & keeps on playing, Why in the hell did he get married? It makes no sence to step out of bounds once you have committed, because your credibility starts loosing value. Two wrongs, don't make a right. Money spent on a 'Swing' would be better invested on his children's education. We all know that shit happens when lust finally meets incompatibility. You either accept to live in a hellish environment or you make a decision for the better of both. the physical or chemical attraction requires your presence where no sexual act might be required, just a brief whiff of what might have been an 'accidental touch' deliver what makes a stronger bond. It would be hell to goto bed w/your wife wondering who the other is going to bed with. The same feeling is not shared by the woman singing the same song where she loves her position as the 'other woman'. Where she claims a better position: 'He calls/comes every thursday, leaves a good part of his check, after making love he falls asleep & I set the alarm to wake him on time 'cause she wants him home on time' 'cause she doesn't want his wife any wrongdoing'. That way she'll keep getting part of his check every week. better yet: She doesn't have to wash his socks, drawers or cook for him. She prefers to remain as a 'Geisha' '. That is the scenario where the opponent is in a much better position while he lies in bed w/his wife wondering who might the other one be with. Faithfull to the punishment; The Hunter, became the prey & loves getting paid ...
Back in the day, this song had so much meaning to me. I was totally in love with someone who owned a Volkswagen Dealership. He was married and my heart got broken but I did get an Audi Fox for an awesome deal. Still think of this guy all the time.
Omg I'm only 23 now but I had a crush on this man and his music since I was 7. The raw feelings he puts in this song still brings me tears of every emotion. Happiness,anger,sadness. How?
I'm only 13 and I believe that old school is the best because most music today not real I'm raised buy my granny and I feel that to be real you really have to go through something ....
All those beautiful Black women. I'm just mesmerized. We are so beautiful. No makeup. No weave. Just pure natural beauty! Good God! They're skin is just 😍😍 And the men! Wheew!
I knew Luther in his late life! I was so amazed by his name talent. I remember when the movie Hustle and Flow came out. And this so g was featured, he and his family were so proud...as they should be.
This song hits differently when you are wanting and with a guy whose in an open relationship , believe me when I say it's just a step away from being with a married man ,I hate myself for it because his everything I have wanted in a man and his chemistry and emotional maturity is something that I have craved for years it's so painful , I am steering the courage to end things with him
I once said this to a man back in 1973and then I accepted Christ as my Savior and realized I did want to b right but I kept on loving him until death did us part in 2021and i still love him even in death ❤
With the level of consciousness coming back...we getting there surely. Our women are slowly but surely coming back to appreciate Afro as they do their curves.
Beautiful song. An ode to anyone who has been in and understands love, and what love can do to a person. He asks the question to which he knows the answer, but is looking for redemption for his soul over his quandary. Yes, it's wrong, we all know, shoot, he knows. But love makes you feel otherwise. Someone said it's a warning...yes it is, 'cause in the end, you have nothing and have given everything for it. Now that's soul! RIP Luther...we understand, and thank you for leaving us this gem.
We all have our shortcoming who is judging who? at least Ingram said it with a sophisticated lyrics and beautiful voice and melody.That's what art means,it doesn't have to happen to you.but putting reality in art that goes in this life and in this world in general.
Love Mr. Ingram. I took care of him at St. Louis University Hospital until the day he died. Great soul, and gave us great music. God Bless his Soul. 🙏🏽

They just don't write songs like this. Songs that just rip out your heart. Not to mention the soul in his voice! This is just an amazing live performance.
That's the industry's fault and this younger generation dont know nothing about real music and that's a no doubt

Those woman where stunning! There style is ❤❤❤love the 70’ area so much
That was what I was thinking, especially the girls' faces; black ladies should go back to Afro hairstyle.
This song is so deep on so many levels

+Tricia Beltran So true Tricia, ole school is the best....Peace and Love....

👍
At least it's a relatable issue and a deep concept. It's a song that makes you think.
+Spanishdog17 It's just a song about cheating right?
All those beautiful Black women. I'm just mesmerized. We are so beautiful. No makeup. No weave. Just pure natural beauty! Good God! They're skin is just 😍😍 And the men! Wheew!
A lot of broken hearts to this timeless classic 💔 .
One of the best soul songs ever written ❤️
I knew Luther in his late life! I was so amazed by his name talent. I remember when the movie Hustle and Flow came out. And this so g was featured, he and his family were so proud...as they should be.
fantastic voice, fantastic song!
Back in the day and still today I will ALWAYS love this song. It plays the words that I lived along time ago.
Someone said today's artists care more about being popular than good. this is about as soulful as it gets! What a great voice and great lyrics!
This song hits differently when you are wanting and with a guy whose in an open relationship , believe me when I say it's just a step away from being with a married man ,I hate myself for it because his everything I have wanted in a man and his chemistry and emotional maturity is something that I have craved for years it's so painful , I am steering the courage to end things with him
May need to listen to "stay" by Sugarland.
😔😔
He has totally captivated the audience.
i thought this was the new hit song. just amazing
Handsome and beautiful voice! He makes you feel his music ❤️❤️❤️
I once said this to a man back in 1973and then I accepted Christ as my Savior and realized I did want to b right but I kept on loving him until death did us part in 2021and i still love him even in death ❤
I don't think I have the words to tell you how beautiful that is ❤
thank you lord for letting me run into this song!!!
Luther became an "ICON" with song!!! Love both Luther's!!
When blacks were proud of having Afros
With the level of consciousness coming back...we getting there surely. Our women are slowly but surely coming back to appreciate Afro as they do their curves.
Our beautiful black sisters. The warriors of the time. ❤❤❤❤❤
Watt Stax! One of the best music documentaries of all time! Stax at their peak, and the beginning of the end, sadly
❤ First time ever seeing the man perform this song! One of my Mom's favorites!
back when black people came together without the bullshit,fighting or drama.
+Stefan Allen ...Sleeping with folks husbands...there's unity for you. :)
+Judith Scott lol
lol sharing is caring
Stefan Allen you are so right love
Stefan Allen to heck with the police. it disturbs me.
If you havent been there than you dont know..preach brother
Beautiful song. An ode to anyone who has been in and understands love, and what love can do to a person. He asks the question to which he knows the answer, but is looking for redemption for his soul over his quandary. Yes, it's wrong, we all know, shoot, he knows. But love makes you feel otherwise. Someone said it's a warning...yes it is, 'cause in the end, you have nothing and have given everything for it. Now that's soul! RIP Luther...we understand, and thank you for leaving us this gem.
We all have our shortcoming who is judging who? at least Ingram said it with a sophisticated lyrics and beautiful voice and melody.That's what art means,it doesn't have to happen to you.but putting reality in art that goes in this life and in this world in general.
Music, brother you SANG the Dickens out of this song, seriously.
