Another day has gone by, lord And still I wait Don't you know, I'm patiently waiting? You'll never know how much I've tried To keep my faith, and it's true Yes I did, and don't you know that I did a lot, girl? She won't write or call, no she won't Seems as if, seems as if she's never coming home But, look, baby love, it's almost gone And then you'll here me crying, girl Temptation's 'bout to get me Yes, it is, don't you know my love? Temptation's about to get me Don't let it, don't let it, pretty baby Temptation's about to get me Yes it is, enough said All my faith will come tumbling down All my friends, they understand They feel, they feel the same as I do The say; she's your love You know her pretty life is you Yes it is, she loves you, you Did you know she loves you, child? Days gone by, Lord And I'm getting weaker A heart this strong gets a little weaker I know somehow, I know, If my little heart gets a little weaker, You'll here my crying Temptation's 'bout to get me Yes it is, don't you know, my love? Temptation's 'bout to get me Don't let it, don't let it, pretty baby Temptation's about to get me All I want you to say All my faith will come tumbling down Temptation's 'bout to get me Yes it is to my lovely one girl Temptation's 'bout to get me
My head would have exploded if I had been at chess when this stuff was recorded. I don't have the words for how incredible this wonderful sound is! Good point sir!!
Siting In The Park, Summertime, Cross My Heart, I Do Love You, Secret Love, check him out. Mr Stewart. A talented singer - songwriter who was discovered by Bo Diddley in 1956. A voice, style and spin that has NEVER been duplicated. Billy Stewart 1937 - 1970 RIP. CLASSIC.
Listening to Billy Stewart brings back so many memories, your music and your legacy will live on an on, rest in peace my brother from another mother !!!❤
There are no singers today w/ this kind of talent & style. He really never rec'd the credit due him in his short life time. However, thanks to todays technology,a new legion of fans is born :)
The first version of "Summertime" I ever heard was Billy Stewart's, and in my view is still the best I have heard -- and everybody has had a go at THAT one. This "Temptation's out to get me" is just beautiful. What a great voice, and what a great interpretation. Thank you for posting it -- it shows a man of style, talent and great gifts.
My husband and I had his song I DO LOVE YOU for our wedding song 20 years ago!!!! He is one of a kind! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ no one will ever replace BILLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We know all about Billy on the Northern Soul scene over in England, he's a legend, i used to DJ, we only play original vinyl no poxy CD's allowed on the decks ! So i got plenty by the big man, a rare talent indeed and a tribute to the Chicago soul scene KTF
This badass jam just brings out all my feelings exactly what is going through my mind and body but in words I wouldn't be able to put it like this beauty of song
A duet between those two greats would have been absolutely fantastic. I'm a hard-core OG who has gotten down in the trenches all my life sand not much has shaken me, but the mere thought of a duet between Billy Stewart and Linda Jones almost bring me to tears. WOW....
I know right? He was great & unique to Soul Music. He brought that scat style of singing that was more used in Jazz Music which he grew up listening to & was a fan of. Not too many other Soul singers duplicated him. I heard in recent anos that G.Q. who covered some of his songs like "I Do Love You" sing them Live in concerts like that in the scat singing style& they do a good job but it's not the same as him. He can't be duplicated. Keep Resting In Peace Mr. Billy Stewart.
We are trying to get that done. We have a book in the library of Congress written about him and his brother. ww're trying to get that done. My husband is his nephew 2023
Billy stewart had a beautiful voice i remember when I first heard his song sitting in the park in 1966 his legacy and his songs will always last forever 😢
There seems to be a lot of controversy over who did the best version of this song. Let me cast my vote for Billy Stewart. So... when Billy sang a song, any other version pales in comparison. He was a true artist with no equal; a one of a kind. Since we have no soul remaining as a society or culture (and very little in our music), it's unlikely he will ever be topped. His interpretations, phrasing and soulful voice cannot be covered, but he could cover any song with style! Billy departed way too soon. I really miss real soul music.
see folks what we need is more people like us to keep this music alive because there are few outlets where this music is played even the so called oldies stations don't really get too much deeper than the standards and I'm thinking to myself I cant be the only one who love this music.. guess I need to get podcasting or something...
So sad if you listen to his songs he was a lonesome man looking for someone to love all his music reflects his emotions. Great Singer 73 yes old and I still love his music.
Another day has gone by, lord
And still I wait
Don't you know, I'm patiently waiting?
You'll never know how much I've tried
To keep my faith, and it's true
Yes I did, and don't you know that I did a lot, girl?
She won't write or call, no she won't
Seems as if, seems as if she's never coming home
But, look, baby love, it's almost gone
And then you'll here me crying, girl
Temptation's 'bout to get me
Yes, it is, don't you know my love?
Temptation's about to get me
Don't let it, don't let it, pretty baby
Temptation's about to get me
Yes it is, enough said
All my faith will come tumbling down
All my friends, they understand
They feel, they feel the same as I do
The say; she's your love
You know her pretty life is you
Yes it is, she loves you, you
Did you know she loves you, child?
Days gone by, Lord
And I'm getting weaker
A heart this strong gets a little weaker
I know somehow, I know,
If my little heart gets a little weaker,
You'll here my crying
Temptation's 'bout to get me
Yes it is, don't you know, my love?
Temptation's 'bout to get me
Don't let it, don't let it, pretty baby
Temptation's about to get me
All I want you to say
All my faith will come tumbling down
Temptation's 'bout to get me
Yes it is to my lovely one girl
Temptation's 'bout to get me
Wow 16 people obviously dont know good music when they hear it this song shouldnt have any dislikes
Vernon McFarland downvoting soul gems like this should be a federal crime.
Sorry to say that my dad ( James Diggs) has pasted away on Feb. 28, 2023. The legends will live on through their music. I’m proud to be your son dad…
Imagine being in the studio when this was recorded. What a band!
My head would have exploded if I had been at chess when this stuff was recorded. I don't have the words for how incredible this wonderful sound is! Good point sir!!

haven't heard a voice like that since his death
FACTS!!
We know all about Billy on the Northern Soul scene over in England, he's a legend, i used to DJ, we only play original vinyl no poxy CD's allowed on the decks ! So i got plenty by the big man, a rare talent indeed and a tribute to the Chicago soul scene KTF
I love Billy Stewart's classy style! And had his album since I discovered him in my teens ♥ I'm 58ish go figure how long I been A listening 🙏
No one can touch this man's style
This badass jam just brings out all my feelings exactly what is going through my mind and body but in words I wouldn't be able to put it like this beauty of song
damn did Mr Stewart sing a bad song!! would have loved a duet with him and Linda Jones...
this brother sing's his ass off on every song
Chess Studios should be a national historic monument.
Love all three versions. If you know and love this song then you know who I mean!!!!
People y’all had to be at a live show to really see his talent lord have mercy this guy and his brother o wow Apollo 1967
my dad put me up on game about billy stewart when I kid
A duet between those two greats would have been absolutely fantastic. I'm a hard-core OG who has gotten down in the trenches all my life sand not much has shaken me, but the mere thought of a duet between Billy Stewart and Linda Jones almost bring me to tears. WOW....
now this is music! what a voice, awesome. thanks for sharing with us .....
That's the same way I felt when I first heard him - the song was Strange Feeling.
And don't know I am patiently waiting........Temptationssss bout to get me.
Oh bo y
Always been one of my favorites
Blly Stewart is simply the best!
I wonder why he was never elected to the Music Hall Of Fame.
I know right? He was great & unique to Soul Music. He brought that scat style of singing that was more used in Jazz Music which he grew up listening to & was a fan of.
