    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. 🙏🏽

    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.

    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.
