    So I came here (for you to love)
    In the pouring rain (for you to love)
    And I know I'm ready (for you to love)
    I'll be the best I can (honey, for you to love)
    'Cause honey it's you I love
    Love, love, love, yeah
    Honey, it's you I love, yeah, yeah, yeah

    I saw Luther 7 times and I still owe him money because he was just that marvelous and gave his fans more than what we paid for. He was respectful towards his fans. He started his concerts on time. He was Mr. Showmanship. His background singers on stage and even those that were sitting on the stools as well as his band performed at height no one in the industry to date can touch.

    Luther had the best background vocalists in the industry, either on stage or on record and the best thing about them is that they were just as much as part of the show as Luther was. He wanted those singers to shine and display their gifts. Smooth and easy choreography and that finger snap? Hello! Miss this no longer being the standard in the music business. LOVE IT

    So let me get this straight, it's 2022 and I'm suppose to listen to that crappy trash singing that's out there today? NO WAY! I had the pleasure of seeing Luther twice in concert and will always cherish that memory. Luther's voice is beautiful and he sings effortless. Something none of these so call singers can do today. Thank you Luther for all the beautiful music you left us with. RIP Luther "Always and Forever."

    I feel sad that I never got to see him in concert. Unfortunately I had the honor of going to his funeral. It was like the Grammys. Amazing.

    RIP Luther you brought so much joy and love to a many of people. This was done with class, but this just goes to show you that people will pay high price tickets to see ass and trash, but not " Class"!
    Luther a real man of class not an act, but pure class at it's best.

    I discovered Luther as a very young high school boy in the 80s back in a small Kenyan town. I've never stopped listening to him. Luther, MJ, Whitney and a few others can never be replaced.

      Nobody sings like Luther.
      Gone too soon, but definitely not forgotten.

      Rest in peace Luther.
