"Secret Garden" was one of the most romantic, classic and timeless songs in R&B. When you have a combination of 4 sexy brothers, Al B. Sure, Barry White, James Ingram AND El Debarge caressing you with their melodic voices, NOT TO MENTION, the musical mastermind, Quincy Jones producing, you've got an epic masterpiece of unspoken measure🎶🎵🎼!!!! Priceless Perfection, show ya right😉!
El Debarge could sing his part at 90 years old and it would still be sexy as hell.
@@raventyler9372 I know that's RIIIIGHT😁! El's voice is absolutely beautiful! A good looking man with a beautiful voice is too irresistible to us ladies.....LOL😍.
If you like Mr Barry White music check me out as I am singing his music....much respect@@
❤
@@raventyler9372 ikr🤣
He still fine and his son Quincy looks exactly like him. And 'Secret Garden' is an amazing song.
Exactly...HIS son, not Diddy's...Al B. And Quincy are twins!
Quincy and Al b. Sure have the same birthday which is June 4th.
Yes, he does, TWINS
Yeah he is
Yeah he is very handsome
That Soul Train Adwards performance tho...
El's vocals is all through that track. So how can you talk about secret garden and don't mention El debarge. Al b sure vocals don't compare to El's. Hating ass dudes smdh
Damn! They act like to they didn't know, or forgotten about El DeBarge being on the damn song. Even Al B Sure. He named S. Garrett that also has a song with El DeBarge which is on my youtube channel if you haven't heard it, before he mentioned El. As if she had a leading part or even in the song. & El had the BEST solo & turnt it out, when they all tried doing their trademark vocals at the end.
El is all that!!
El debarge write secret garden with quincy jones and al b sure
TRUTH CAUSE AL LIP SINC HIS DAMN PART
El DeBarge had that quite confidence about himself and knew who and what he was. Barry was Barry, and James had his career going for awhile at that point. Al was happy and thankful to be there , but at that point, he was in over his head when it comes to the other guys.
That being said, this is a great song and in my top 10 all time. Thanks to Quincy Jones for putting a great mix of talent together to pull this off.
Agree..and El was a writer of the song also..you can barely distinguish Al B voice
Seems like El barely got mentioned and he killed this song. It was like they didn't want to mention his name. Classic nonetheless, one of the best slow grooves.
El did that song
El was the only was the only one i remembered
Yeah, seems as though El was barely mentioned considering the fact that he wrote both his part and Barry Whites parts. Yep, that's right for those who didn't know. I remember the various interviews with some of them including quincy jones, in RightOn magazine, BlackBeat and Jet magazine. And, it was mentioned by Donnie Simpson on Video Soul. This is what happens when you're tricked out of your publishing.
What are they talking about El debarge vocals made secret garden. And of course Barry white.
El DaBarge help carry that song are you kidding me. Go listen to it
El has so many haters he dominated that song. Him and Barry straight up💯💯
Plus El is the known writer of Barry's versus. Barry delivered like none other too.
💯
That's el debarge song idc he carried that song 100% background vocals and all
When I think of the song I think of El’s parts the most so I agree
I’m telling you one thing. El Debarge owned that song on the soul train awards okay. Can’t believe he just glosses over El like that.
jeolousy makes one do that
UM NO !!!
EL DEBARGE WAS VERY GOOD ON THE SONG SECRET GARDEN..
HONEY BARRY WHITE'S BARITONE VOICE AT THE END ON THE SOUL TRAIN AWARDS, PUT EL DEBARGE IN HIS PLACE ??AND TOOK IT ALL THE WAY HOME!!!
REST IN PARADISE BARRY WHITE THE MAESTRO!!!!!
AND JAMES INGRAM R.I.P
@@whosaidthatimari4915 Yeah, Barry sure did deliver those verses that quincy Jones had El Debarge write. All of them did a great job on their parts.
El was the best pure singer on there. None of them could hit those notes. Al b was my favorite but he can’t mess with El vocally
@@lamaralston9123 Al did a great job on the album, but on the only memorable live performance he was lip syncing. I'm in agreement with you.
Al B Sure still look fine aka good! He giving these young guys a run for the money. Now i need to go download that song cause it was a great hit.
Me too !! And the Al B.Sure In Effect Mode Album....
Get his music too trust me you won’t be sorry
Yeah he does
With all respect to the other performers, Barry was the one unreplaceable member on that song.
They all are.secret garden can't be duplicated. Ever!
Siedah Garrett is everything!!! I’m such a huge fan!!! I love knowing she had a part in writing this. She has been the industries best kept secret that has been out in the open!!! Amazing writer and vocalist!!!
I don’t know if you’re familiar with Questlove from the Roots podcast called Questlove Supreme, it he has an interview with her that is great. Take a listen if you can.
@@Boogiesince Ive not had a chance to listen to his podcast. I love listening to someone of her caliber talk about the industry and experiences. Thank you so much!!
Al took great care of himself. Looks good.
His talking voice is that deep rich voice.....but when he hit them high falsetto notes in his songs.....WHEW CHILE!!!
Like Prince.
Wow, Al refuse to give us the full T on the making of The Secret Garden. I remember El DeBarge claiming he wrote the part that Al sang and later Al sued Quincy because it became a million seller and he wanted writing credit along with Q, El and Seideh. Their was a lot of drama behind the making of this classic and hopefully the truth will come out. I guess only Time Will Reveal.their live performance of this classic on the Soul Train Awards was amazing however.
El Debarge dominated that song. Barry White touched it up! Al B sure could have been easily replaced. James Ingram could have recorded his own version and it could have gone platinum. Yes Al B has a lot to be greatful for.
These are all great points..but you gotta give Al his credit too...he comes from blues royalty but he hit the ground running, toured his ass off in patent leather and no socks..greeted everybody in massively long lines with a smile. I was one of them. This cat knew music..WROTE lyrics AND score...the four guys each representing basically what their era of r &b was..in that sequence..the whole thing was genius..in part to the feeling you got from each one..
PeriodT.
Al could’ve been easily replaced? Plz stop. That’s ignorant
Replaced ? I Can Think Of Only 1 But He Can Replace Almost Anybody.
Ron Isley
I was around 19 when Secret Garden arrived. It put me in a zone. Now, almost 30 years later, when I listen to it, it brings more meaning. It’s so beautiful. 😭❤️
I love Al B. Sure! I play his music every single day! He took good care of himself! He aged gracefully 💕
What's your favorite Al B Sure song???
@@reddyred5097 You truly can listen to him "Night And Day" 🤣
@@TruthBTold- 😄😄😄
James Ingram killed em all
That was one sexy ass song 😩🥰 listening to Al and Barry voice 😭😍🤩
The Thgt, in My Mind,The Wrds I'm Not Allowed To Repeat,
People sleep on his songwriting and production skills. He is so underrated as a creator. I’ve been listening to Tevin Campbell’s “Alone With You”. He tore that up. 💖💖
That song Secret Garden is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
al b getting sexier as he age
Classic jam
Al b sure looks really goodddd. Have always been a fan. Love this song too
Al B SURE is one of the GREATEST Talents!
Love me some Al B. from day one! An all-around incredible talent!
Great interview fox soul AL B sure looks amazing.
Al still looking like a snack. Yass , Al B Sure. We use to have posters of this gentleman in our lockers.
Al B still fine!!!!...love secret garden the song!!!!!...
Al B, too long winded! I gotta go!
I thought it was me. Damn
This is true. 😆
😂😂😂 I think he likes to hear himself talk.
Man!! Just imagine if Michael had Debarge verse. Sheesh!! Not taking anything el debarge because he killed it but just imagine!
I always that was AL B. Sure! on Guy's "You Can Call Me Crazy". I don't remember him being credited. I miss reading the CD or cassette credits!
Thanks for the reminder. I miss reading about which Artists were Co writers of the songs
I don't believe that Al sung on that song.
debra james Oh ok! They should include all that information on streaming services and digital platforms. I would read it 🙋🏾♀️. I especially liked to read music that was sampled or contained an interpolation! Lol
@dannie curlett I think it was initially his song but Guy's manager had them take it back.
Eye miss the thAnkh yous and the shout outs the most. Well of course and the credits... It actually made you feel closer to the artist than stalking them on their social media makes you feel nowadays
@@mackmccord3743...hmm...interesting...I agree. How emotionally intelligent of you!👏🏾
Side note: I remember reading that artists had to pay for the thank yous, acknowledgments, and s/o by letter.
El Had the most on that song
al make all those faces but is not strong in the vocal department. he was with 3 legends on that record that shield hos non skills!!
El Debarge's voice on Secret Garden was unmatched!
💯
WHY IS SARAH VAUGHN NEVER MENTIONED ? SECRET GARDEN MAY HAVE BEEN HER LAST RECORDING.
Quincy is his daddy twin
Yessssssssssss Lawdddddd Secret Garden. Omg !!!! ❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯
Hey guys if you need that Mr.Barry White performed live brother check me out as I am singing Barry White music....much respect!
Darn you Al b you gave us dark skin cats a lot of problems lol
He is very handsome and talented handsome man with a sexy voice I can’t wait to get married some day i love my black men ❤❤❤❤😊
@Al B. Sure naww bro you made a mistake on the talent that came out of the town you mentioned, Ahmaud, Rashad is from my home town of Tacoma Wa. And Phylicia Rashad was from Houston Texas but as I looked her up she did go to school in Mt Vernon….
When he said I want to read your mind and know your deepest feelings I was on because I wanted Al to feel that way about me
There are song/collaborations where maybe one of two verses are more memorable than the others.
Not the case with "The Secret Garden". Every verse is absolutely ICONIC!!!!
It is amazing how good Al looks.....I am sure he sings just as well as ever!!!!! Come back Al...we need you!!!!
Love me some Al B Sure and I remember seeing him Bobby Brown in concert decades ago and he still look good!
Barry White ❤❤🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥
you get off on ya own girl all alone....you wrote the sht outta that hook....if you didn't write it....you sung the hell outta that....
Al Was Bad Back In His Day
You're guy looking so good happy St Patrick's day to you and family and friends and teams
Imagine a time line where they released 3 different parts of this song with three different sets of singers.
El Debarge owned this song
Yep...Yep...Really Good Interview...One Love Fam...
I STILL listen to this song on a regular basis
That song is timeless!
Order of MOST NEEDED on Secret Garden
1. El
2. Barry
3. Al
4. James
Damn Al B Sure still fine👏👍❤
Yeah he is
lol Al sure can talk. I was waiting on some tea about Secret Garden but he really didn’t say anything too deep. I heard an interview with El when he said he had been at the studios all night till the next morning with the others recording their parts. Then it was his turn and he wanted to go home and regroup. Quincy said nope. Do it now. El didn’t like his first take but Q thought it was perfect and that’s what was used.
El and Barry definitely owned that Soul Train performance. I like to say El was the achor who held it all together and did the as libs and Barry brought that shit home at the end of the lmaoooo
Al B Sure didn't belong on that song. He was out of his league. That being said, he showed up, set off, and murdered that song.
Al and Quincy are the only artist alive. Quincy is 91.
2022! This song is timeless! My lawd!!!
That was El and Barry all the way they laid that song.
Love ❤️ it Secret Garden
Take care himself keep hope up
❤
