Ironically, This was the Song that sprung Jeffery Osbourne into one of the Great Balladeers of all time. He was LTD's Drummer and the producers brought the song to the original lead singer who did not want to do it and they asked Jeffery to give it a try and the rest is History
@@Elaine8492 while it is impossible now to imagine anyone other than Jeffery Osborne recording this masterpiece, the truth is that the song’s writer, the great Skip Scarborough, offered it first to Maurice White to be recorded as an Earth Wind & Fire song…but White passed on it and the rest is history.
When I tell you that this song is part of the soundtrack to my life, I mean it. This song is in my top 10 of love songs. PERIOD! Jeffrey Osbourne, lead singer, sang the hell out of this song! Yasss! Love.
Jeffery Osbourne was Lionel Richie's favourite singer. His voice was incredible, strong and soulful. On The Wings of Love, You Should be Mine and Love Power (w Dionne Warwick) are some of his solo hits.
This one brought tears. To see a real man, sing about his true feelings like that was beautiful beyond words. The feeling he put into the sound was like he cut open his heart and poured it out for all the world to see. So respectful, so kind, so pure. Look at the dancers, How inspired they were to hold each other tenderly and lovingly. Not sexually, but lovingly. That is what is missing today that is so hard to explain to the younger folks. That slow dance feeling is more beautiful, fun and lasting than any of the vulgar moves that lead to disrespecting women today. This is the kind of music and dancing I wish our daughters could enjoy and have as memories of their youth. The way we did.. Soul Train is magical. I never tire of watching their videos. It was the best dance show on television. :)
LTD is an amazing group, the entire album with the song Stranger was lit. My mom used to listen to it all the time. RIP to my mom. This song brings so many memories for me.
This is one of my favorite male singers! He makes you feel what he is singing. This is my favorite song of his about love, and many other songs to make you dance. I'm 62 and still jammin and dancing to these songs from the 70's, 80's! Thank you for playing this one! ❤
LTD was one of my favorites in the late 70s; my favorite from them was "We Both Deserve Each others Love": in 73 my favorite was "So Very Hard To Go" by Tower of Power: I think it was 72 my favorite was "Everybody Plays a Fool" by The Main Ingredient; another from 71 was One Less Bell To Answer" by The Fifth Dimension; in 74 was "When Will I See You Again" by The Three Degrees; another was "Loves Holiday" by Earth, Wind, & Fire: thank you for your reaction.
L.T.D. ( Love Togetherness Devotion) was the truth back in the day! Love Ballad is my all-time favorite by them! Fronted by the smooth voiced Jeffery Osbourne, they had many great songs that you should check out! Most of them have mentioned here by these other L.T.D. fans ✊, so I'm not going to unnecessarily repeat them.
Jeffrey's voice is so wonderfully dreamy! Check him out singing We Both Deserve Each Other's Love, Stranger, Concentrate on You, Greatest Love Affair of Them All and Let Me Know
I love this LTD hit! Jeffrey Osborne has one of this amazing voices that’s pure and beautiful! He also had a very successful solo career in the eighties! You guys are a beautiful couple! ❤️❤️
Yes. Some people just don't know what it was like to grow up around that time. The Black middle class was flourishing, people married, neighborhoods were more peaceful, men didn't curse around women and gave their seats to us on the bus 😊....A great time then.
I had the privilege of seeing these guys in person years ago. They were the opening act for the Commodores. I also had their vinyls. LTD=Love, Togetherness & Devotion 🥰
Ok, it’s a pleasure to see a married couple express their love for one another as if everyday is Valentines Day. It’s obvious you’re blessed and truly enjoy being together. I’d like to see you two review the live Soul Train version of Al Green’s, “God Blessed Our Love.” It’s not just a beautiful song with his unique styling, it’s truly a meaningful song for those of us who pray to experience what you represent before our eyes. Keep up the good work you Trail Blazers and may God continue to bless your love ❤️!
One of the main reasons I watch you two is because I can see the love between you both! It makes your reactions so good! And I appreciate seeing a couple that's got so much love for one another working together it's great! And this was a great reaction great song! 👍👍👍
I've said this before about the song "You Are My Starship" by Norman Conners, but this is another song that every black woman of a certain age knows, and every black man of that age has sung to his woman. Jeffrey Osborne just has a great voice. Try him doing "Back In Love Again" with LTD, and "Stay With Me Tonight", "On The Wings Of Love", "You Should Be Mine (my personal favorite)", and " Only Human" as a solo artist.
Wow! Looks like this song hit Bro. Shawn's heart hard and quick! Is that a tear welling up in your eye, Brother? I understand. Everything about this recording was magnificent, magical, soulful, touching, and special! Luv ya, Family.
Trying to tell y'all. I'm old school till the casket drops and this is my sh*t! Please believe me when I say a house party wasn't a party unless you put this slow jam on. Back then we slow danced at parties. It's how you pulled the ladies! 👍🏾😂
Oh I Love you guys!!💕 Love Your reaction to this- I been loving this song😍 It's a beautiful song, and Your Love is obviously special, i teared up watching your reaction!
I grew up watching soul train,I was just a kid,but I'm 60 now and that sure did bring back so good memories, Thank You Sir Shawn and Ms.Lady Mel for your reaction hope ya'll have a blessed evening 🙏😘💞
That’s so sweet how this song brings out the love and affection you have for each other. I’ve loved this song for a few decades now, and I gotta say your reaction is exactly what goes on in my heart every time I listen to this track. God bless you both and your channel.🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️

I'm 43 & this has been 1 of my top 5 RnB, old school, slow jams since I found it, I was 17 years old, attending Cheyney University in P.A., listening to Philly's "Midnight Storm" (I'm a #JerseyGirl to my ❤️), as Philly has long had the influence of & enjoys the remarkable, classic sound of the "Gamble & Huff Era", so they would be playing some JOINTS that would spin my head on its access & I had loonngg been a Midnight Storm fanatic at home in North Jersey, since I was like what in 7th grade, but these songs were sumthn different, sumthn special that I'd NEVER 4get. I'd always been a connoisseur of music, but this was taking me up, phuck levels, it was transporting me thru dimensions🌠. I introduced this CLASSIC JOINT to many important people in my life, particularly the MOST IMPORTANT PERSON WHO THE LYRICS SEEMED TO JUST DRAFT OUR REMARKABLE LOVE STORY IN PROSE, LITERAL EMOTION FOR EMOTION, AS IF MY ❤️ WAS SPEAKING. ON JUST 8/19/22, MY DARLING HUSBAND & I CELEBRATED OUR ANNIVERSARY, WE'VE BEEN TOGETHER 22 YEARS NOW🎉 & "🎶WHAT WE HAVE IS MUCH MORE THAN MOST CAN SEE🎶"!!!! #LoveOfMyLife #AYISHARRON (Our names combined, Ayisha + Sharron, w/how perfectly out names merge 2gether to create 1 super name & our amazing story, it's clear to us that us being 2gether #ItWasWritten !!!
This channel reacts to the best music that has ever been made. I am so glad the music of my youth is being enjoyed by others now. Good music never goes away!
Still performing and still sounds great! In a couple of weeks he is coming through my region to perform, always a pleasure to see I’m and taking you back to then!!! Looks still great, except no more hair, jus bald, looking great for his age!!
I really enjoy your reactions! This is one of my favorite ballads of all time. Outside of this channel, I recommend checking out some of his live versions of this song...Jeffrey absolutely tears them up!
Wow! Hadn't heard this in awhile! Brought back memories of slow dancing with my wife. So much great music from back in the day🎵🎶. Many have already recommended songs you should react to and you should. Thanks for the memories!
MAN I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YA'LL! My wife and I met 23 years ago and have been married and together ever since. This song expresses everything we feel about each other as a young black couple. Seeing you and your lady react towards one another hearing this song is awesome. Much love Brotha!
This song has always been a staple on the date night playlists of me and my fiancee's ...now that were getting married this April ..huge reception.. wedding on the beach( we love our old school) this is the song I'm walking in on..of course " we both deserve each other's love" is our wedding dance song❤❤❤..
I'm new here. I really really like,no love the way you 2 show love towards each other. And you take the time to actually listen to the lyrics of the song. Those old songs got me through my youth and early adult stages. For me the lyrics were and are what attract me to the music. You guys are great. Always love, Simonsez1960
Jeffrey Osborne a very underrated singer in my opinion
I agree. He has such a rich voice!
Agreed
One of the best from that era
Super Underrated!
Always has been in my top 3 and will always remain !!!!!!!!!!!

This one by LTD was properly titled,"Love Ballad",great song

One of my favorite songs EVER on that same level lol !!
Jeffery Osbourne was Lionel Richie's favourite singer. His voice was incredible, strong and soulful. On The Wings of Love, You Should be Mine and Love Power (w Dionne Warwick) are some of his solo hits.
Funny to hear you say that. I saw them touring together years ago. LTD opened, followed by the O'Jays and the Commodores. That was a great show.
Jeffrey aint dead
His voice still is all that.
@@SkammLykelee Sounds like it was w/those bangers on the bill💯!!!
He still is a GREAT singer

Miss them good old days 😪
Fantastic comment. Romance like this, needs to make a comeback.
Eeffffff merci
Listen to "We Both Deserve Each Other's Love". You'll love it.
Jeffery Osborne has one of the most soulful voices. Love Ballad is my favorite but I also like “holding on “
Jeffrey's voice gives me chills! Always has. Such range and power in that mans voice.
Jeffrey Osborne has many great songs as a solo artist. To start, I would request "Stay With Me Tonight".
YES!!!
Great solo songs and other great songs with LTD
Won't cha. Best marriage song. LTD has the hits.
Won't cha. Best marriage song. LTD has the hits.
(Everytime I Turn Around) Back In Love Again was a big hit for them.
I was raised on his music he stole my heart as a child and still has it. Good vibes ❤️🤗🙏
LTD is an amazing group, the entire album with the song Stranger was lit. My mom used to listen to it all the time. RIP to my mom. This song brings so many memories for me.

Taking it back...this is my second favorite slow jam of all time...Jeffrey sung his heart out on this one
Don’t tease what s your favorite? By Smokey or stylistics?
This is the music we grew up on in he 70's so blessed💖
LTD was one of my favorites in the late 70s; my favorite from them was "We Both Deserve Each others Love": in 73 my favorite was "So Very Hard To Go" by Tower of Power: I think it was 72 my favorite was "Everybody Plays a Fool" by The Main Ingredient; another from 71 was One Less Bell To Answer" by The Fifth Dimension; in 74 was "When Will I See You Again" by The Three Degrees; another was "Loves Holiday" by Earth, Wind, & Fire: thank you for your reaction.

This is mine and my beautiful girlfriends favourite song who sadly died just before Christmas who will never be replaced .
I love this LTD hit! Jeffrey Osborne has one of this amazing voices that’s pure and beautiful! He also had a very successful solo career in the eighties! You guys are a beautiful couple! ❤️❤️
A classic hit. I remember my mom’s playing this on Saturday morning when cleaning the house. Thank u for the great memories. Thank u for the video.
Ahhh back when black music was more about love making rather than just sex.
Yes. Some people just don't know what it was like to grow up around that time. The Black middle class was flourishing, people married, neighborhoods were more peaceful, men didn't curse around women and gave their seats to us on the bus 😊....A great time then.
This song holds up all these years later. Still on my playlist. Great song.
This song and the Commodores' "Just to Be Close to You" were the killer love songs for that period.
This is Classic Soul music
I had the privilege of seeing these guys in person years ago. They were the opening act for the Commodores. I also had their vinyls.
LTD=Love, Togetherness & Devotion 🥰
You MUST react to Concentrate On Your by L.T.D!❤️
YOU! 😊
A must
Great music never dies 👍

George Benson did an up tempo version of this both gold in my opinion .
Yes He Did
Awesome song 🎵♥ This group had great music 🎶❤
....."Cause Ya Give Me Special Joy...OHH!" Love that line from "Stay with Me Tonight".
One of my favorite love songs! I’m only 36 but my husband and I played this song at our wedding when I was 28. ❤ love your channel!
Love Togetherness and Devotion
One of the main reasons I watch you two is because I can see the love between you both! It makes your reactions so good! And I appreciate seeing a couple that's got so much love for one another working together it's great! And this was a great reaction great song! 👍👍👍
Absolutely the most beautiful song ever. No wedding reception was complete without this song.
I've said this before about the song "You Are My Starship" by Norman Conners, but this is another song that every black woman of a certain age knows, and every black man of that age has sung to his woman.

The first time I listened to the song, I couldn't get enough.
LTD LOVE BALLAD.❤️❤️❤️
Jeffrey Osborne was a great voice. Very underrated and unappreciated. He had hits with LTD and on his own
Still performing and still sounds great! In a couple of weeks he is coming through my region to perform, always a pleasure to see I’m and taking you back to then!!! Looks still great, except no more hair, jus bald, looking great for his age!!
I saw him at the Las Vegas Hilton showroom. Terrific show! Maybe 10 years after this.
Jeffrey Osborne was the lead singer for LTD. He also had an amazing solo career. Check out Don't Get So Mad and I Really Don't Need No Light!
Excellent review/reaction!! Thanks guys this made my day ☺️😃 this tune does it every time. 💯
This is a beautiful song this man has touched many people heart with this one
I've seen Jeffrey when he was with LTD and then as a solo performer. He has a powerful and soulful voice. Love the funk too!
He has such a soulful voice beautiful voice.
I really enjoy your reactions! This is one of my favorite ballads of all time. Outside of this channel, I recommend checking out some of his live versions of this song...Jeffrey absolutely tears them up!

Congrats
The Manhattans "Shinning Star", was one of those love songs in line with The R&B sound at the time also.
It was so nice to see how this song resonated with you both!
MAN I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YA'LL! My wife and I met 23 years ago and have been married and together ever since. This song expresses everything we feel about each other as a young black couple. Seeing you and your lady react towards one another hearing this song is awesome. Much love Brotha!

Saw LTD in concert in Louisville KY in the 1970s.... the masculine energy was absolutely superb ...unmatched.
Love this song and your reactions. You two are inspiring.
You need to have a Soul Train gang for us to join & remember all these beautiful people & their voices !?😁❣️
My wedding dance song at one of my weddings 😂😂lol but I digress this is one of the coldest slow jams ever
I'm new here. I really really like,no love the way you 2 show love towards each other. And you take the time to actually listen to the lyrics of the song. Those old songs got me through my youth and early adult stages. For me the lyrics were and are what attract me to the music.

It is great to have someone to dance with. Even if you stand in the middle of the floor and barely move.
Back in Philly in the 70s and 80s, this was a top basement party slow jam. Great times.
