Millions of us. I'm from Johannesburg, South Africa and Jeffrey Osborne was here in South Africa in March for his "Jeffrey Osborne - You Should Be Mine Tour." He was singing the same old 70s love ballads and all his Concerts were sold out with fans who sang along to all the songs.
Jeffrey Osborne and Dionne Warwick nailed this song. What is so sad is that I cannot think of a single male or female popular artist amongst the millinial generation that can even come close to the talent that these artists represented during the period of great love songs that this song was produced. It is so sad how narcissistic and inept these young artists are today with celebrating the importance of love in song writing.
I found a love ❤🌹 with my husband...I pray 🙏 that it's the one that's the strongest and the one that survive ...cause there's no one else that makes me feel so glad I'm alive 💖💖
I agree. It should have been a big hit. It's only original release was on the Dionne Warwick Greatest Hits 1979-1990 album, which was released in October 1989. It was interesting that they titled the album 1979-1990, instead of 1979-1989, as it was a 1989 release. I will leave that up to the marketing department.
@@leafl75 You are welcome. "Take Good Care Of You And Me" has been released on many compilation albums of Dionne Warwick and maybe Jeffrey Osborne as well. The biggest hit that Jeffrey Osborne had was "On The Wings Of Love", released in 1982. "Take Good Care Of You And Me" was released in 1989. You might have noticed that Burt Bacharach and Carole Bayer-Sager, his wife at the time from 1982 to 1991, were featured prominently in the video, as he composed and she wrote the song. They both collaborated with songs, including composing and writing "That's What Friends Are For", which was originally written for and sung by Rod Stewart in 1982 and used in the movie "Night Shift", also released in 1982. It was turned into the huge hit by Dionne Warwick, Gladys Knight, Stevie Wonder, and Elton John, in 1985. Burt Bacharach was in his 60s in this "Take Good Care Of You And Me" video and Carole Bayer-Sager was in her mid-40s. Currently, Burt Bacharach is 95 years old and Carole Bayer-Sager is 76 years old. They both have autobiographies in print. A lot of Melissa Manchester hits were co-written by she and Carole Bayer-Sager. "Take Good Care Of You And Me" is also featured on the Dionne Warwick Facebook page with the same video as well.
@@jasonburger3533 Thanks again. Yes, I did notice Burt Bacharach and Carole Bayer-Sager on the video. Someone in the comments thought he had seen Joan Collins but it's true there's some resemblance. "That's what friends are for " as well as "Heartbreaker" are Dionne's hits I remember the most of that era. But she did so many others and this song is just fabulous.
@@leafl75 Her song "Heartbreaker" was released in October 1982, 40 years ago this month on an album of the same name. It was written by The Bee Gees, who sing the chorus in the song. They had to convince Dionne Warwick 3 times to record it, as she purportedly did not like the song at first. It wound up becoming her largest international hit. Barry Gibb, one of The Bee Gees, also wrote a song for her called "Yours". It is on the same album and is a nearly 6-minute ballad. The Bee Gees produced the entire album. "That's What Friends Are For" was originally sung by Rod Stewart in 1982. However, in 1985, it became a large fundraiser hit by Dionne & Friends, which consisted of Dionne Warwick, Gladys Knight, Stevie Wonder, and Elton John. It raised money and awareness about AIDS research. British-American actress Elizabeth Taylor had wanted to join in singing at the end of the song, but Clive Davis, the head of Arista Records at the time reportedly stated that it would have become a novelty song if that had been done. Since Elizabeth Taylor was involved with AMFAR, the American Foundation For AIDS Research, the others were all for it, but even that could not make a difference on the issue. Dionne Warwick was involved with the "Solid Gold" show on its 2-hour pilot episode from January 1980, the top 40 songs of 1979, the series in its first season, 1980-1981, and the 1985-1986 season. American television has generally followed September through May for a full season, but there have been deviations to that in many cases in recent years as new media has competed with television for viewers and attention as well.
@SeanJenkins The youngsters, most of them anyway, do not know who Jeffrey Osborne and Dionne Warwick are and many of their musical contemporaries as well. I think that you meant how good not how cold. He was good, very good.
2023, we met in 2021, and this is our song ❤❤❤😊 I'll never understand why some people have to grow old and die. If I had my way, these 2 would live forever 🤞🏿love from South Africa, kwaZulu cabanga ❤❤❤❤
In this 1989 music video for "Take Good Care Of You And Me" sung by Dionne Warwick and Jeffrey Osborne there included Burt Bacharach and Caole Bayer Sager, who composed and wrote the lyrics for this song and had been married from 1982 to 1991, so they were married at the time of the song and video. The song first appeared on the "Greatest Hits 1979-1990" album, which had been released in late October 1989. The title was ahead of its time in many ways, including the date as well.
That is such a beautiful song Dionne Warwick Jeffrey Osborne. Dionne Warwick has the power and the range vocally as she's always demonstrated. She's got a powerful and beautiful voice. She should have been in Rock and Roll Hall of Fame decades ago..
Take good care of u and me...true love is hard to find...what a jam...classic...I'm in so in love with my hubby...total bliss enjoying every minute of our ❤️ ❤❤❤❤
I am still taking good care of you and making sure that the music will relieve you from the pain and the stress. I will always be there for you at all times pertaining to your everyday natural life.

Bellissimi cantano divinamente Dionne e Jeffrey voce dolcissima e bellissima coppia ben assortita x cantare questa bellissima canzone grande artista Dionne 💯💯💯💯💯💐💐💐❤️❤️
Here on this Sunday Night Jamming to My Oldies and I had Dionne Warwick on My Mind to Listen to Her Mer Music. So I scrolled down Her 'Greatest Hits 1979-1990' Album and found this Hidden Masterpiece with Her and Jeffrey Osborne. Never Heard of it Before. It is such a Great Gem. They don't Play this One on the Radio anymore. But I Do Hear their "Love Power" Song every Now and Then Still. This was when R&B was Music and Black Music Entertainers Promoted Black Love. They don't make'em like this no mo.
I had seen Dionne Warwick in concert in 1989 promote this song and the 1979-1990 greatest hits album and since Jeffrey Osborne was not with her in concert, she sang her part and had his recorded part on a loudspeaker. That is how I found the song and got the album. It was a classic and still is, over 32 years later. It has a large following online.
BURT, thank you so much for all the great songs that you composed over all the years. This one is also very underrated too! R.I.P. BURT, my music hero for ever!
Bellissimi Jeffrey Dionne anno una voce pazzesca unica è bellissima il video stupendo ogni volta che li ascolto mi vengono i brividi spero che troverete altra bella musica di Dionne e Jeffrey insieme cantano divinamente belli
It didn't got the props;in the country of its origin but our radio stations in Jamaica especially the FMs did gave it a go.Nicer music than Endless love.
E un piacere ogni mattina appena alzata sentire questa bellissima canzone mi fa sentire molto contenta e gioiosa sn due artisti bravissimi li amo tantissimo anno una voce incredibile stupenda grade Dionne indimenticabile ❤❤❤❤❤👏👏💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💐💐💐❤️❤️
My absolute favourite duet of all times. Song by my favourite male vocalist of all times #jeffreyosborne. The notes #jeffreyosborne hits in this song & the delivery is simply amazing. His voice blends so well with #dionnewarwick. The ad libs at the end. Superb!
Dolcissima Dionne bellissima voce quando sento questa canzone mi vengono i brividi e cs bella questa canzone che cantandola insieme Jeffrey e bellissima ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He was not underrated at all. He received the highest accolades from his peers and record sales. A legendary R & B vocalist second to none, equal to the best ever....
@@imrhannephew1892 ...Boy that’s a loaded question, but I will give you a few to consider and I’m only going by the tone of their vocal melody on this one....Donny Hathaway, Luther Vandroos, Stevie Wonder, Usher, Eddie Kendricks, Kenny Lattimore, Peabo Bryson.....Thats good enough

Too beautiful voices and one brilliant burt Bacharach.

I know Jeffery Osbourne can but this song make me say, 'THE MAN CAN SING'.
WONDERFUL SONG.
Just imagine if Burt and Dionne never had a fall out. I can't imagine how many songs they have charted.
They charted more than enough, sometimes singers has to move on.she did very well post Bacharach.
Burt Bacharach, and Carol Bayer Sager, wrote some beautiful songs.
They were married from 1982 to 1991, which includes during the time this 1989 song was made.
Remember when saxophone used to be one of the main ingredients in most songs of the 80s
The best. 🎷 ♥️
@@tjipo Yes, such as in the "St. Elmo's Fire" theme song.

So true.
They don't
Sadly they don’t , so glad I was young and experienced music like this …

I want our love to be the one that`s the strongest and the one that survives; cause there`s no one else that makes me feel so glad I`m alive!!!
This was truly a beautiful ballad. Should have been a much bigger hit for both Dionne and Jeffrey. A gem of a song.
Magnificent talent in the lyrics and certainly in the delivery by Dionne Warwick and Jeffrey Osborne!❤

Dionne, by the way, but point taken.
i can't stop listenning, DionneWarrick, you are just wonderful.
Her real last name is Warrick. Error in spelling on early contract in early 1960s led to Warwick and the rest, as has been said, is history.
An absolutely classic to go down in history!!
