      Amen ,I was driving home one day and I was listening to Superstar from his live album. I was at a light and the top down ,someone started to blow their horn. I woke up from my trance as it was forever .the next light the car pulled along side of me and said you better be careful when you listen to Luther while driving. It was that soothing and peaceful.

    I was blessed to see and hear Luther sing in person in a Madison Square Garden concert in New York City and I was in total bliss listening to him sing. His voice was as smooth as velvet and personality of a Angel. I truly believe this Angel was call back to Heaven.

    Strumming my pain with his fingers,
    Singing my life with his words,
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Telling my whole life with his words,
    Killing me softly with his song ...
    I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style.
    And so I came to see him to listen for a while.
    And there he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes.
    Strumming my pain with his fingers,
    Singing my life with his words,
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Telling my whole life with his words,
    Killing me softly with his song ...
    I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd,
    I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud.
    I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on ...
    Strumming my pain with his fingers,
    Singing my life with his words,
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Telling my whole life with his words,
    Killing me softly with his song ...
    He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair.
    And then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there.
    But he just came to singing, singing clear and strong.
    Strumming my pain with his fingers,
    Singing my life with his words,
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Telling my whole life with his words,
    Killing me softly with his song ...
    He was strumming, oh, he was singing my song.
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Killing me softly with his song,
    Telling my whole life with his words,
    Killing me softly with his song ...
    With his song ...

    He always comes across as a decent bloke, I'm sure he had his moments. You can have all the talent in the world but if you're a horrible human being then it ain't worth a dime. As the old saying goes, it's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice. A purer male voice in pop I'm yet to hear. Just like the songs he covered, his voice is timeless.
