It can be but like a phoenix though we rise and emerge from the ashes never ever even need to be alone never ever again still it’s a beautiful song still love this song brings me back to so many good memories it’s okay and alright bro just have a god cry sometimes. Like Lyfe said ain’t nothing wrong with crying it’s like taking your soul to the laundromat.
I’ll never forget when my husband and I had front row seats for a Luther concert at the Fox theater in Detroit. One of the most memorable moments of my life.😢. They’re both gone but Not forgotten. Sing with the angels!❤️
I. Feel. Yoh. Im. Still .missing my. Love. Listening. To. Woman who wafuck. Im not. Giving. Up. On. My. Love. Who. I. Know. Still have. Me. In. His. Heart. Loveya. Believe. Me❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢🎉🎉🎉🎉
So agree I have 6:50 on repeat right now as we speak. I go back to a Lil girl. I just turned 42 in May. To when I had his 45" and my daddy was a known gospel singer. He bought this album and said I can sing better than Luther. Tbh he almost did. But I will always have my dads voice singing as this song plays. Sorry I told a life story lol 😂😥😥
@@kirbyosborne7348No hate, it’s the truth👏👏👏 This so called music is pretty much Destroying the mind of the elegance of Love, Destructive to the heart and soul❤
This is one of the most beautiful songs in the history of music. I started listening to this man in 1983 at the age of 10. I am 50 now, and this is still the most beautiful sound I have ever heard. ❤
The whole arrangement is beyond amazing….i just close my eyes and can hear so clear! One of my aunts favorite song…. Good music never goes out of style
I’m 51 and when I first heard this around 83 I was in the backseat of my moms car coming from the mall and it was the first song that ever touched me deep in my soul
@johnnykirk2099 Same here. Only difference is it was 1983 that I put the pieces together! Realizing Luther's voice was the voice from two of my favorite songs I would hear during my summers in Jersey -- Searching & the Glow of Love! So his debut album Never Too Much just stole my heart after that. My Dad would play the album every morning when he woke up until he made it out the door for work. This lasted for several months. It was my Dad's theme album and Never Too Much became my song!
46yr and it still hit hard that now my 4mo old love this song it calms him down puts him to sleep. Every day my 4mo old hast to listen to big Luther. He also love Lil Luther
2024/9024 this song will be here!! Rip Luther thanks for all your beautiful music well done sweetie enjoy your beautiful beautiful home in heaven ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@williethomas5116 ⁉⁉NO, he couldn't "out sing" them!! Such a stupid, worthless comparison. Luther was MAGNIFICENT. SO was Marvin and Karen and Whitney and Judy Garland and on and on and on. There is no dumb ass "competition" to be made of them.
@@greeneyedwarlock882 someone got trigger please go away. There is no problem with comparison. Get psychological help. Yes they sang the same song and YES Luther did sing it better. Don't like it, you don't have to.
I was a senior in high school when he released this. This was a huge hit. The high school dances, sitting by the radio so that I can record it on my cassette player. A Quiet Storm classic. I'm 56 and this song still touches my soul as it did in 1984. Luther Vandross, a master vocalist. He is greatly missed.
Eve though they don't make songs like that now a days, they definitely don't sing with a passion like that either. Glad I had the chance to hear so many classic songs. Be Blessed Everyone.
Wow omg,,, where has the time gone??? This man rt here oh god, why does the greatest always fall??? I can remember listening to foxy107 foxy104 and waiting for this song oh my god ,,, this is real music!!!!! FACTZ
Yes the intro gets me every single time, since I was a kid. I remember my mother waiting to sing the song all while moving her arms like she was conducting a choir during the intro🤣🤣🤣🤣
@ Craig Bailey….. you speak nothing but the truth! Luther was one of a kind…. never to be touched by another artist. His music has saved me on numerous occasions and now that I’m divorcing it has even more significance for some reason. Take care.
Chills.......fucking CHILLS. To this very day.....32 years after it's release.......Luther's rendition of "Superstar" STILL pushes my emotional buttons. The song is simply a work of art......created by one of the greatest male vocalists of our generation. I do NOT have the words to properly express how much I truly admire & miss the talent of Luther Vandross, and the impact he has had on the lives of my wife & myself. Love you, Luther.
So yesterday I was watching Family Feud with a black family and a white family. The question was “name an artist who’s music a lot of babies were probably made to.” Ok, the black family said “Usher and R. Kelly” needless to say neither of those answers were there (even though you could make an argument for R); the white family said “Barry White, Teddy Pendergrass, Luther Vandross & Marvin Gaye”! Now the crime here is neither Luther nor Teddy were on the board!!! Whaaaat…..with songs like this if someone or something doesn’t come to mind you really need to reinvest in your love life…
I lost my husband in Dec of '81. He was 29 and I was 25. We married young. I never remarried. I raised our 2 daughters and our son. I was 3 months pregnant with him. He was born exactly 6 months to the day his dad passed. Hardest thing I've ever had to get through. When I hear this song I cry like it happened yesterday. My heart is forever broken. I can't hardly wait to be with him again. I miss you Isaac 😔 💜
Amen brother sending prayers to your grandmother mine hasn't been in great place either all we can do is cherish the last moments with them let them no you love them and do all you can brother keep your head up cause age and death comes for us no matter what treat everyday like its your last cause well yeah you no the rest my brother godbless and keep ya head up my guy
Luther never got the proper credit for his arrangement abilities. He blended the Carpenter's and Stevie's songs and made them all his own in one. This song is not only one the most beautiful songs ever made, but it was BRILLIANTLY arranged. PURE PERFECTION !!! R.I.P. indeed KING.
God I dedicate this to you for giving your only begotten Son Jesus to us! I DECLARE YOU KING OF KINGS & LORD OF LORDS! Please have mercy on us your selfish creations! Especially the Afro-American youth that's caught up in genocide🙏🏽
And thank you, Jesus, for simultaneously lifting the devilish vail of DECEPTION laid on humanity in these last days of LUCI's FAILING ATTEMPTS at dominion over YOUR creation, guiding us, to follow YOUR footsteps TO FREENESS, and eternal life. Amen.
At 33, soon to be 34 this December 24, I find myself reflecting deeply when I hear this song-it stirs something profound in me, bringing tears to my eyes. It takes me back to a time when love was abundant, a time so vivid with warmth and connection. It’s a bittersweet feeling because today, it feels harder to find that kind of unconditional love. Even in music, there seems to be a missing piece-the kind of songs that reach into your soul and make you feel. To anyone reading this, I wish you boundless joy and happiness. Remember, tomorrow is never promised-not the next second, minute, or hour. So love with all your heart, laugh as much as you can, and forgive without hesitation. Life is fleeting, but when we live it with love, it becomes a gift to ourselves and those around us.
When my wife and me split up, this song got us back together . That was a good few years , till we totally threw in the towel , but Luther was there for us ❤
Damn, this song! I was listening to Karen Carpenter’s Superstar so, I had to follow up with Luther. 2020 has been a very difficult year to a lot of people. I don’t want to be 50 yrs old right now. I want to be that 13 year old innocent little boy in his momma’s house, in Bridgeport, CT listening to 98.7 💋 kiss fm Night Beat with Yvonne Mobley. Just daydreaming about being a grownup and having a girlfriend. You get sad when you think about all your loved ones that have passed away over the years. Yeah, I don’t want to be 50 yrs old right now, but then Luther tells me “it’s all right, it’s all right...ooh baby, it’s all right, it’s all right “
Before he went solo, his background singers were a group called Change. Together, they recorded Hit songs like Searchin'. And, their album title song called The Glow of Love.
At work driving to this song went through a marriage betrayal this song hit different now slowly getting my feet under me the world don’t know how many of us men shed so so so many tears
I'm so sorry to hear this. Especially when women like myself long to have deep connection with a man who's loving, kind, compassionate, empathetic, patient, understanding and faithful. I know all to well about the betrayal. Give yourself time to heal, be patient with you. God bless you!
Luther and the musicians absolutely ate on this track! Shout out to all the 90s and 80s babies who are playing this in their adulthood after hearing our parents play it all of our childhoods❤❤❤
My mom used to play this song on repeat when I was kid. I always remember the very first minute of the song and how it was the most absolutely perfect intro he could have made for this song... This can never be duplicated...
Elite voices to be sure, but for elite and quintessentially unique, check out Karen Carpenter's version of this same song. Her voice and delivery, practically otherworldly.
@@johnboehmer6683 far be it from me to ever say this but Luther IMABHO actually does sing it slightly better. But could you imagine them both singing it?!
@@williethomas9953 I'll say this much, I like the arrangement and tempo of Luther's version better... I can't imagine the song working as a duet by any 2 singers though. It's a song about heartbreak and rejection, you know? Both are extraordinarily talented, but the song just fits Karen Carpenter like a glove. Her voice, and melancholy delivery is just made for songs like this, and dare I say even her persona? Luther's version in the end has a more beautiful feel to it, Karen exudes the pain the song conveys sharper (though the arrangement of her version's chorus throws that off with the almost happy sounding brass section). Which version did you first? Oftentimes this determines which one we prefer...
I use to wait til late at night to record this from the radio station onto my cassette player ,Luther has been my favorite of all times he's smooth ,timeless and just amazing .
Me too...in Petersburg va 99Magic radio station...Petersburg High School.December 1983 go waves...also Virginia State University on the Horizon...Ettrick va Foster Hall and the cafe....happy times
Also those brisky winter nights smelling the fire wood in the atmosphere of Petersburg va...North Carolina ave. Better nonw as the " hieghts" LOLOLOLO Lee Park virginia ave . coolsprings..Blanford ..cedar st...halifax st...walnut hill...sycamore st. West st...highpearl st johnson rd....
At 4:37 I lost myself in the song and when he said DONT YOU REMEMBER ME ANYMOOOORE then went to A LOOOOOOONELINESS in such a simple thing....NO ONE BUT LUTHER COULD DO THAT
This was my grandmother's favorite song to listen to and especially when she was depressed. I didn't fully understand as a child the struggle of depression......but I do now and it has become my go to song as well.
This is a testament that legends never die. Luther’s works will live on forever. Kudos to Seveda and her crew. This year you guys went hard on driving forward Luther’s legacy. Almost 20 years later and the flame of Luther Vandross is still burning on. Well done 🎉
loonnnelinesssss is such a sad affair...gives me chills
😭😭 tell me about it..
i am telling you sister
Yeah that break down was sad😢but oh so real....
It can be but like a phoenix though we rise and emerge from the ashes never ever even need to be alone never ever again still it’s a beautiful song still love this song brings me back to so many good memories it’s okay and alright bro just have a god cry sometimes.

Yes Lord! .... Quiet storm!!!!

Yes those were the days...
I listened to the Quiet Storm with Marco Spoon on FM 102.1 as a kid in Houston...this brings me back to those magical, carefree days...

I sense it. So sad 😢
It’s alright now
makes me cry, him and Barry White ...!

in all seriousness could someone tell me why this song didn't get an Oscar and a Grammy ?? I mean this is pure artistry!!
+Geni-us Aggregait absolutely I can't agree with you more
jack golden yes it should have won a grammy, but do you know the Carpenters sung this song first
+Tequila Richie yes I'm very much aware that it was a cover version.
Luther sung it better than the Carpertners
jack golden the gave the Oscar to hard out here for a pimp! smmh!
Im a 61 year old white man , this is black culture to me when it comes to music , not some of the stuff today

Damn, this song! I was listening to Karen Carpenter’s Superstar so, I had to follow up with Luther. 2020 has been a very difficult year to a lot of people. I don’t want to be 50 yrs old right now. I want to be that 13 year old innocent little boy in his momma’s house, in Bridgeport, CT listening to 98.7 💋 kiss fm Night Beat with Yvonne Mobley. Just daydreaming about being a grownup and having a girlfriend. You get sad when you think about all your loved ones that have passed away over the years. Yeah, I don’t want to be 50 yrs old right now, but then Luther tells me “it’s all right, it’s all right...ooh baby, it’s all right, it’s all right “
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
From a 52 year old, I can relate. Facts!
Same sentiment
@ Mike…. Yeah. I don’t wanna be 50 either. This song makes that painfully clear. ❤️😉 From 6:51 on = pure magic!!
Amazing I'm 35 and feel like this
Luther's background singers were always amazing. The perfect combination
Before he went solo, his background singers were a group called Change. Together, they recorded Hit songs like Searchin'. And, their album title song called The Glow of Love.
My mom's fave artist, she passed 7/19/22 from covid, this brings back so many memories of listening to this. Mommy i miss you😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
God bless you
May she rest in eternal peace and granted access into paradise 🙏🏾 sending healing and protective energy
Sending you peace and comfort during this time 🙌🏾💜
Rest in Power 🕊
The vocals on this is crazy
This song makes me happy and sad because Luther is no longer here 😢
He's no longer here, but we are so blessed to have his music with us forever. Amen to that.
Soon as he said, "it's alright, it's alright" I'm like, "You go, Luther!!"
At work driving to this song went through a marriage betrayal this song hit different now slowly getting my feet under me the world don’t know how many of us men shed so so so many tears
*hugs*
You're not alone brother. Peace to you.
Say that I'm was going through the same thing 😊😊😊
Big Facts 💯
I'm so sorry to hear this. Especially when women like myself long to have deep connection with a man who's loving, kind, compassionate, empathetic, patient, understanding and faithful.
I know all to well about the betrayal. Give yourself time to heal, be patient with you. God bless you!

Beyond classic!!!!!
6:51 I lose all self control. The most beautiful part of the song.
Gets me every time it’s so deep that feeling that comes over you when that part of the song plays I use to be sad but now it’s alright
Luther and the musicians absolutely ate on this track! Shout out to all the 90s and 80s babies who are playing this in their adulthood after hearing our parents play it all of our childhoods❤❤❤
My mom used to play this song on repeat when I was kid. I always remember the very first minute of the song and how it was the most absolutely perfect intro he could have made for this song... This can never be duplicated...
My mommy used to play this on her drunk nights
Let's keep it 100% G, no one in all time has a better voice than this man n Whitney Houston. Top voices I've ever heard in my 25 years 🎯
The two greatest singers/artists of all time!
Elite voices to be sure, but for elite and quintessentially unique, check out Karen Carpenter's version of this same song. Her voice and delivery, practically otherworldly.
Fr 🎉😮
@@johnboehmer6683 far be it from me to ever say this but Luther IMABHO actually does sing it slightly better. But could you imagine them both singing it?!
@@williethomas9953
I'll say this much, I like the arrangement and tempo of Luther's version better...
I can't imagine the song working as a duet by any 2 singers though. It's a song about heartbreak and rejection, you know?
Both are extraordinarily talented, but the song just fits Karen Carpenter like a glove. Her voice, and melancholy delivery is just made for songs like this, and dare I say even her persona?
Luther's version in the end has a more beautiful feel to it, Karen exudes the pain the song conveys sharper (though the arrangement of her version's chorus throws that off with the almost happy sounding brass section). Which version did you first? Oftentimes this determines which one we prefer...
One of my favorite slow jams from Luther. Rest in paradise brother.
One of the most beautiful voices ever. RIP Luther.
6:50 The whole song transform right here. That "IT'S ALRIGHT" hook could've been a whole song by it's self nowadays. He f**ked em up singing 2 words.
True story
Sometimes this song just hits
"It's alright, it's alright, oooh baby,
That's my part right there. Love u Luther
That's part to love it
Yeeessss

At 4:37 I lost myself in the song and when he said DONT YOU REMEMBER ME ANYMOOOORE then went to A LOOOOOOONELINESS in such a simple thing....NO ONE BUT LUTHER COULD DO THAT
Best R and B Singer of all time
LUTHAHHHHH!!!! I have never sat and listened to a song that was almost 10 mins UNLESS Luther was ‘sanging’ it!🙌🏾
"And your guitar, "
....."it sounds so sweet and clear, but you're not really here"
..."its just the radio."
Timeless.
Music for soul !! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
"I use to be sad, but now it's alright" 🙌🏾💜
Every note both sung and orchestrated means something, they all coincide to tell a grand story. This was when time and effort was put into music.
Little Luther or Big Luther he sang with his whole heart and soul...keep singing in heaven❤
One of the most beautiful voices of all time.... This is timeless.
The Best Male Vocalist " hands Down.........
An undeniable masterpiece of music.....
One of thee best songs EVER PRODUCED 👏
Legendary shit.Who doing this today(2025)?
This was my grandmother's favorite song to listen to and especially when she was depressed. I didn't fully understand as a child the struggle of depression......but I do now and it has become my go to song as well.
Still getting chills 40 years later.
2025 HEY LUTHER NEVER FORGOTTEN! ❤❤❤❤❤
This is a testament that legends never die. Luther’s works will live on forever. Kudos to Seveda and her crew. This year you guys went hard on driving forward Luther’s legacy. Almost 20 years later and the flame of Luther Vandross is still burning on. Well done 🎉
I always cry when i here this song. His voice is so clear and he sings this for the heart 😢
You are not alone :) it's a very very long line...
I use to be sad but now its alright!!! My favorite part. I'm 23 years and I stay bump in old school
👍
A lot of music made more sense the older I got. Such a beautiful, heartwrenching ballad. Luther knew how to use his voice to invoke so much emotion.
Music is all the medicine I neef
Mine too
Alright now🎶🎶🎶🎶
