      Me, too. I bawl like a baby at this song.
      I lost my dad in 79, watched him die for 25 straight days knowing he wasn't going to survive.
      You can imagine the feels
      I know it's about a romantic partner but so many lines relate to my memory of that time.

    He has a terrible voice when it comes to ballads. I don't mean that as bad as it sounds, but he truly is not a great singer. In the 70s their music didn't require a great singer, and it seems his songs were either in a very low register (Get Down Tonight, I'm Your Boogie Man) or a higher register (Please Don't Go, Wrap Your Arms Around Me, Keep It Comin' Love).
    As the years went by he started singing almost entirely with the higher register and to me it just never sounded good.

    • @dontworrybehappy8080
      @dontworrybehappy8080 5 років тому +5

      I think KC's iconic-ness, with respect to your point of view, boils down to a couple things:
      1) Eddy Murphy said in his 'Delirious' stand up. "You don't need to be a great singer, just be interesting".
      2) An old 'Rolling Stones' music critic (can't remember his name) said "A great singer can be identified within seconds of hearing their voice. They have that one unique quality that's different from the rest. You know instantly that it couldn't possibly be anybody else".
      I believe KC fits within those definitions.
