George version was a soundtrack... he was good ❤
George Benson is renowned for his skills on a guitar, in this song he decided note to include it. You do want to hear his amazing talents on guitar soon.
Love me some GB. What a singer..I believe he was a session guitarist at first. What a voice.
George Washington Benson is an American guitarist, singer, and songwriter. He began his professional career at the age of 19 as a jazz guitarist. A former child prodigy, Benson first came to prominence in the 1960s, playing soul jazz with Jack McDuff and others. George wrote these inspiring lyrics that millions have heard and loved them.
The song was written and recorded to be the main theme of the 1977 film The Greatest, a biopic of the boxer Muhammad Ali, and is performed during the opening credits. George new greatness.
This is the original version. Whitney's, God rest her soul, was the cover version.
Now you must hear George play his guitar on this masterpiece..... This Masquerade (2000 Remaster)

Love this song ❤️😍❤️❤️❤️
George is famous for "Scatting" with his guitar solos. He vocalizes every note while playing it. Very unique indeed. This is great. GEORGE BENSON On Broadway Album Version

George Benson - song "Take Five" from "Live At Montreux 1986".
This version of Greatest Love was recorded by George or the soundtrack of the film, The Greatest. An overlooked gem eclipsed by Whitney's version. Both recordings were released by Arista Records.
What a spectacular work of art. This to me totally blew away Whitney's cover, making this soaring anthem of self dignity and self love sound sappy and saccharine. Benson's vocals and the vocal arrangement in general is powerful and passionate, with a depth that makes the message stand out loud and clear. Such an impressive and heartrending composition. Proud that was born in my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! You are the very FIRST reactor on TH-cam (that I have seen) who has reacted to this,
the ORIGINAL version of this Linda Creed song performed by Benson. All other reactors have just reacted to the same old (and not nearly as good) cover by Whitney Houston, so it's wonderful to see someone, anyone, react to Benson's much superior, and heartfelt rendition. Great reaction.
I have three grown kids that grew up with this song, now my four grand kids will hear it with you.... Cool
The original....and the best ❤
Your relationship with your Patreons/Subscribers has been very enjoyable for you and us. We lay them down and you pick them up. The process puts a smile on all our faces as you learn more about the music we grew up with. It has been my pleasure to be a part of your journey. My son Mike said.... JM got lucky when people like you (me) discovered his channel with all your knowledge of classic rock tunes he can't go wrong.
It's a sin that George Benson isn't in the Hall of Fame. This is the best version of this song, not the popular Whitney Houston cover. Lilting is better than loud.
If you are familiar with the "Abbey Road" album by the Beatles, George covered the entire album, at once. And his version of "On Broadway" by The Drifters is unmatched.
George Benson is one of my all-time favorite R&B/Jazz musicians. He has a great catalog worth diving into. One of my favorites and should be your next GB reaction is "This Masquerade" (link below). Thanks for another great reaction, JM! ✌💙✌
This Masquerade - th-cam.com/video/g-ibK5L2a4I/w-d-xo.html
As I said... This song made me think of you and this journey with new music. Your comments/reaction... Just what I expected.
This was the theme song for the movie about Muhammad Ali called the greatest
George is a great jazz guitarist! Listen to Breezin’ , or Love Ballad to get a taste of his greatness!
Check out George Benson's "This Masquerade "
PAUSE.... Before I watch this reaction, I will predict you like it a lot, as much as I do... Now push the play button and enjoy this incredible song. Thanks again. #79
"The Greatest Love Of All" - George Benson
I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
… Everybody searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone who fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
And so I learned to depend on me
… I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I'll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
… Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all
… I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
… I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I'll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
… Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
… The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
Is the greatest love of all
… And if, by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The original version from the soundtrack for The Greatest. I thought you'd at least recognize it through Whitney Houston's remake, which I love, but this original rendition is it for me. Guess you had to be there.
This was a big hit for Whitney Houston, too.
#1 on the charts. I always thought it was criminal that Benson's original version didn't reach #1.
@@2GunRock and this, Benson's is FAR superior to Houstons, imo.
Unfortunately, "The greatest love of all" is NOT easy to achieve.....
He's an iconic legend, but no one can sing it like Whitney in my opinion. Just like no one can sing the Star Spangled Banner like she did.
