Man this brings back so many memories!! Season 2 and 3 were by far my favorite! In 2019 this is still giving me chills! You better SANG! Giving me all the "Big Lutha" vibes lol.
This guy should be on the radio everyday, unfortunately R&B is not as popular as it used to be. A lot people do not appreciate good music. It is a shame that someone with this talent can't make it and people with no talent make it big. Music companies would rather give contracts to people who have to use auto tune or people who swear a lot over someone who has immense talent like Ruben Studdard. That is why I do not listen to contemporary radio stations. I listen to a radio station that plays music from the 60s, 70s and 80s where actual musical talent was appreciated.
Ryan, you have had a wonderful, successful career, but I think you are still gorgeous. Please highlight your hair again!!!! We all grew to love you when you started with Idol. Very happy for your success and I tell my husband all the time you are the Dick Clark of this century. Blessings always. Caroline
Looking back at these clips, especially this song and A Home Is Not a Home I am having the chills I had the night he performed this amazing song. 🥲🥲❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
It’s true. That wasn’t his best. He sounds better now. Everyone has off days sometimes. He’s still very talented. Can’t wait to see him perform this week.
Love Ruben. His voice is so smooth, soulful& he has power.He sounds like Fred Hammond. I would love to hear him sing "No Weapon"..Great performance😚😙😊😊
why isn't Ruben singing this type of music now? Ruben, cut the gospel stuff & stick to giving us this Luther Vandross type stuff, it is where you shine & bring us the magic : ) !!! Needless to say I loved this, love hearing Rubin sing Luther : )..

I feel like this song has so many difficult notes, lots of dissonance and sharps, flats and naturals. His pitch is so effortlessly good, not totally flawless but nails it at all the crucial moments. Tamyra’s version had a lot more raw emotion, but something about this performance from Ruben gets me

I remember this like it was yesterday where life was so simple, No extra social media, Rushing to sit on the couch hearing the music of American Idol.
I learned to play guitar along with the songs they would choose. This was a classic show
👍
Brought back good memories for me.
So true
Facts
Luther Vandross would be so proud of Ruben and the beautiful justice he gives when he sings a Luther song or any song👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Yes he sure would be very proud of Ruben he did this so lovely
I can’t believe this man didn’t become an absolute star. Top 5 voices I’ve ever heard.

Man, that was incredible. He hit those notes flawlessly...what a talented brother.
Ruben doing his thing vocally, it never gets old, we need more like him for real👍😎
He Has Always Had An Amazing Voice!!!!

I ABSOLUTELY Love Luther, but I Totally Love, how Rueben, put his own twist, and sound to this song. He made it his own.
This song brings tears to my eyes. This will ALWAYS belong to Luther and only Ruben can borrow it!!!
I've always loved this song and Ruben, put this one on your concert list.
Yet, EVERYTIME he sang, he ALWAY looked as if he wasn't sure if the did his very best. #Humility!

This is the best cover of this song that I’ve heard
Look up "Jaheim A House Is Not a Home"
@@googleme7754
I was just gettin ready to say!! They betta checkout Jaheim's (sp?)version, too! Not comparin', just sayin! LoL

Luther's version is a cover. First sang by Burt Bacharch and Dionne Warwick covered the song. Luther's version is the best cover.
