I think Alexander was soooooo underrated!!!! This era was all about Luther and Freddie Jackson but back in the day Mr. O’Neal could definitely hold his own. I loved his voice!!!
Bruh this is the epitome of classic timeless 80s R&B. I’ve never met a person who heard this song and didn’t like it. The jimmy jam & Terry Lewis team had the juice for a long time! Check out “Sunshine” and “A Broken Heart Can Mend” and “All True Man”
I was on an Alexander O’Neal kick last week; such beautiful music, when a man actually sang to a woman about love; no bit$h or ho talk. “What’s Missing” is another great one❤
Alex crushes this vocal!! And that Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis magic... fun fact, they refer to this chord progression sequence as 'Wet' and it's the same chord progression they use in several SMASH hits, like Janet Jackson's Come Back To Me, Human League's Human, New Edition's Can You Stand the Rain and Force MD's Tender Love. Makes for a great playlist!!
His whole 1987 release album "Hearsay" is a must listen to. That one along with Keith Sweat's "Make it Last Forever" was everyone's favorite at that time when we were all stationed at RAF Alconbury in England. So many good memories. Another big hit in England at that time was Joyce Sims "Come into My Life"
I wish u could’ve heard how I just screamed when I seen u uploaded this 😆This is one of my FAVORITES ❤MY Daddy use to play Alexander O’Neal 24/7 thank u so much Satori for doing this.. bout to show my mama this video we love u over here..also, he makes really good Christmas songs.. u should check them out when u get a chance ❤
When I think of music, this is the first song that comes to mind. My mom played this so much when I was a kid, it’s burned into my soul. It’s truly a part of me.

When I say this is my JAM!!! His voice is smooth as silk. My absolute favorite AO song! Sunshine is a close second though so plz check that out too. If you love this you will love that one too.
One of my Favorite R&B Singers ..React to: "Sunshine" .. "What's Missing" .. "Crying Overtime" (Perfect Break Up Song) .. "Aphrodisia" .. "Lady" (90's Slow Jam) .. "A Broken Heart Can Mend" .. he had some great hits with his label mate Cherrelle - "Saturday Love" .. "Never Knew Love Like This" ...
This my shit right here I had first been introduced to this song through my grandparents on a road trip in 2006 and it’s 2022 and this song a vibe right from the 80s
YES, O'NEAL is a beast in the 80's Cherrelle was a great duet with him 2. Great reaction, you might want to check out and react to Cherrelle "Everything I Miss At Home" got a small part with O'neal in it but that song flow just right with them.
Alexander O’Neal I believe was more appreciated in the UK than stateside. “Crying overtime “ is another great ballad of his. While you are at this check some other British soul acts like Mica Paris “ my one temptation “ 2. “ Body talk “ by Imagination 3. “ southern freez” by Freez Love your channel ❤
After Prince had a few hits, he pulled the Time up and produced them. Alexander was Morris Day's choice to be lead singer of the Time. But Prince felt that he wasn't good looking enough.
Bro thank you!!! This was my request!! The songs below by Alexander O’Neal are dope too “Never had a love like this” w/ cherrelle “Lady” “what’s missing” “When the party’s over” “The lovers” “Sunshine” “To make you love me” “Hearsay” “Everything I miss at home” w/ cherelle Bro even got a Christmas song that goes crazy. “My gift to you” This my pops favorite singer. God rest his soul. Appreciate you reacting forreal
I was HOPIN' you'd get to this one!!!! Til this DAY I turn the volume all-a-way UP on THIS Alex-O'Neil jam!!!! TY! (And you didn't disappoint in reacting to it cuz although you weren't born in our time, you can enjoy our jams as much as we do!) 'Preciate-cha!!!!
Love Alexander o Neal that man can sing and had alot of jams his whole hearsay album is 🔥🔥 his duets yes with cherrelle phenomenal amazing underrated singer
‼️💯💪 S/O to Maurice Cooper for the donation & video request 💪💯‼️

@@diaquitaquita8984 yes it does
@@Satori_My_G I DIDN'T KNOW YOU KNEW THAT'S WHY I TOLD YOU CAUSE YOU DIDN'T DO THE VIDEO
Thank you, Maurice, and thank you, Satori!
So nostalgic.
I think Alexander was soooooo underrated!!!! This era was all about Luther and Freddie Jackson but back in the day Mr. O’Neal could definitely hold his own. I loved his voice!!!
His cocaine addiction mashed him up in truth but I am proud to say that he lived in England for a while where he is loved and still tours.
Not during his run. His songs got much radio play and WE LOVED HIM and still do.
His best song by far...
love seeing the younger generation appreciating good music. classic banger my all time fav.
the kind of music that makes you feel like you are floating
This was a jam when this came out. He had a lot of good duets with Cherrelle. You've got to check them out
He already did Saturday Love
Let him do Innocent the first hit with Cherelle
@@Battle_Faith-Ministries yep then "Saturday Love"
@@makingchanges64 Oh okay I didn't know
I loved this album. A. O'Neil never got the credit he richly deserved as a singer. Thank you.

Very underrated song
Oh my days...I still have this album on vinyl...reminds me of being a teenager playing it in my bedroom on my Technics tower stereo player ❤
Legendary
You had me at Technics. I had a Technics system back in the day, I still have it now in it's boxes.
Lord, Jesus.......this one STILL brings me to tears😢
My Gift to you “is his Christmas Song , it is fire
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis produced bangers in the 80's and 90's!
All day long chile, ALL DAY LONG😎
Monte Moir wrote and produced the song.
Minneapolis Sound was a force in 80s/90s....
Alexander O'Neal is one of my favorite male singers. Satori I see that you like that song a lot. God bless you!🙏💜
This classic is a whole mood🔥🔥🔥🔥
HIS SONG SUNSHINE IS THE BOMB TOO
Sunshine 💥
I love Alexander O Neal. I played his CDs in the 80s.
Sunshine & Crying Overtime both are classics
That’s sunshine man
Memories for me. Got some good sexing off this song when it first came out and then again about 20 years later.
Ok then, baby😉
I was on an Alexander O’Neal kick last week; such beautiful music, when a man actually sang to a woman about love; no bit$h or ho talk. “What’s Missing” is another great one❤

'Criticise' is one of the best songs of the entire 80s.

Sunshine is one of my fav songs of all time. Alexander O’Neals voice was something special ❤️
Produced, arranged and written by the great Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis
You are right!! This is my jams!! The king of music!!
Him being fired by Prince was a blessing in disguise
When I think of music, this is the first song that comes to mind. My mom played this so much when I was a kid, it’s burned into my soul. It’s truly a part of me.
This was the best song ever. Oh the memories
One of the Best Songs from him ...
I love this song so much. It's such a smooth jam!
Have you listened to Smokey Ribinson and Rick James, "Ebony Eyes"? Another classic!!
The Greatest sing I never heard.
This was the jam back in the day. Another Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis production. And Alex's voice was so distinctive. The fade at the end is fire!
Another awesome Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis production.
