Heard a female playing this on her fb story, and it took me back to the days when Love was really real and it meant something. Had to come here to listen to the whole song and feel the Love again that I have had in Yearsssss off this song. 2024!
I think Darnell and Stevie both have nice tones but In my opinion neither one of them are amazingly vocalist. If you have a nice tone you can sing a Stevie song because his songs aren't hard to sing. And Darnell always sounds bad when he sings live.
Right it's still pretty but the thing is I thought it was tevin Campbell all this time but it's still pretty though and like I thought the song I heard was Kool and the gang song but it was midnight star that song it
This was my husband and I wedding song . I listen to it everyday. I sadly lost my husband to cancer 3 weeks ago it brings me comfort just listen to our song on what was the happiest day of our lives.
I can easily sing this to God...His love for me is unfailing and knocks me off of my feet to love a sinner like me!! One of my favorite songs in or not in a relationship , he did this song 110% justice!
People talk about how cheap the music video is but they fail to find that it is an abstract with a romantic, sweet and innocent vibe that match the song perfectly.
This homie sings this Stevie classic straight from the heart, theirs some who just sing, but when it comes from the soul, nothing can overtake its power, Donell tore it up ! 😎👍👍✌
....the opening line..... If I here it, even karaoke ...I just get so happy and think of the days walking the man made lake alone haha, it had potential that park ....I would actually think of this Beautiful song ....not many parks in Calif rent the kind of boats you can peddle (or paddle boats) ....I moved far away ..but some moments of solitude there stay with me and I miss my loved one there in So Calif ...
Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, can take Donell Jones’ place! He’s my absolute favorite artist of all time! I have all of his albums and I love him forever ❤️
I agree he was one of the most underrated of the 90's hitmakers. I just remembered his music and thanks to UA-cam I'm now listening his jams. The 90's produced the greatest r&b of all time.
This is back when R&B was from the soul and you felt what they were singing about. Back when videos had a meaning and purpose to the song. I want that back, to sit and fall asleep to the quiet storm, wait for your video to play on The Box. lmao
i’m only 22 but i’ve been in love with R&B since i was a little kid. me and my mom would listen to it and just talk about life and all the times her and my dad would do the same. the 30th of July was 2 years since she passed and R&B gives me the peace i need. i love you momma i knowyou listening with me ❤️ hope you’re getting your rest your body couldn’t get that your soul deserved 🫶🏽😇☮️
I felt that . I listen to this type of music all the time .. makes me feel closer to my mom as well … hope they are both getting the rest they couldn’t get her on earth 😇
I'm so sorry for your loss. There is nothing like a mother's love. I know how hard it is to lose a mother at young age. I pray you have the support of your father, friends and family 🤍.
Realalist I agree. If you listen to Memphis Bleek feat Donell called "I wanna luv you". Song is good but the raping made the song less great. Same thing with Lil' Wayne and Lloyd - I want you.. That song would have been good without wayne.
Gotta disagree with you on this song. Tevin Campbell sings it much better. Donell gets off key on that "something about your love that makes me weak and knocks me off my feet. It's not flowing in tune like it should.
I used to walk on campus to this song while it was sunny outside and watch the people around me smiling. It was such a beautiful moment in time where we didn’t have to wear masks. I miss seeing people smile in public 😩
One thing I like about his videos is that the women in his videos are Brown skinned to dark skin. Don't get me wrong I'm not knocking light skin women biracial etc but most black videos now days have women of lighter colors. Its good to see a black man out there who considers women of darker shade someone special and beautiful
Donnell Jones vocals reminds me of the late Tony Thompson of Hi-Five, I think people who really know R&B music and these two artist will agree. These guys vocals are truly amazing when they sing, their voices are the music itself. Tony Thompson also had dimples, lol

2024 STILL LISTENING, SOME THINGS NEVER GET OLD
NEVER.......
can anyone agree? wasnt he so underrated?
R Kelly shut his career down. The label wouldnt promote his albums. They gave him no marketing
And fiiiiine😊
@@sethperdue8251 really??? Wow that explains a lot.
@@Claudia-jz9bw yes that absolutely true. R Kelly was very instrumental in destroying his and Joes career.
Never heard of this man til today. A man drove up at the store where I work listening to this. I should've said thanks
Right it's still pretty but the thing is I thought it was tevin Campbell all this time but it's still pretty though and like I thought the song I heard was Kool and the gang song but it was midnight star that song it
They sound sooo much alike all those guys sound like each other
Luther, Tevin and Donell have sung that song and released it on the same year
Where I wanna be is a Donnell Jones album that is 25 years old and STILL one of the best rnb album in history. Listen to it- you won't regret it
One of the best remakes.
He did Stevie proud. Nice rendition.
Most underrated R&B artist of the 90s!
Outsiders Random channel 100% agree
100% agree...he gets no love
He's my all-time favorite

Who’s Still Listening To This In 2024👀🔥? If ONLY Music Was Still Like This 🫠✨
Right here
Right here real music listening now...still got the tapes even ...
🎼"AND I DON'T WANNA BORE YOU WITH IT!"
People talk about how cheap the music video is but they fail to find that it is an abstract with a romantic, sweet and innocent vibe that match the song perfectly.
And at the time it was shot, it was still ok
Nope I dont see it. No excuse for this video. Could have done better, cheaper.
Exactly exactly exactly. Being in love is campy the way love songs put it and this video is that.
Its nothing wrong with this music video
Honestly, I like it. It fits in a way.
This song is just so sincere man. R&B perfection, bring this kind of ballad back!
😍 Who’s still listening in 2024 🔥
This homie sings this Stevie classic straight from the heart, theirs some who just sing, but when it comes from the soul, nothing can overtake its power, Donell tore it up ! 😎👍👍✌
All facts right there!!!!
Truth Indeed AMEN
Yea, he outdid Luther’s remake by a mile.
Yes he really does it justice.....i love it, was just listening to Stevie's
....the opening line..... If I here it, even karaoke ...I just get so happy and think of the days walking the man made lake alone haha, it had potential that park ....I would actually think of this Beautiful song ....not many parks in Calif rent the kind of boats you can peddle (or paddle boats) ....I moved far away ..but some moments of solitude there stay with me and I miss my loved one there in So Calif ...
All of us females with a heart and soul love this song. Deep down inside the words feel so good. Thumbs up ladies, if I'm correct.
Very correct

He did a good job on this remake. Not many people can pull off a Stevie Wonder remake but he did it justice

It’s 2024! And Donell Jones and his songs like this one still touches anyone who ever had the opportunity to be in love before.
happiness for the family
He was big . It was 4 :00 am . I was studying back in 96 , this came on . All the way in South Africa.

This is back when R&B was from the soul and you felt what they were singing about. Back when videos had a meaning and purpose to the song. I want that back, to sit and fall asleep to the quiet storm, wait for your video to play on The Box. lmao
Alicia Rice pardon my french but that's some real shit right thurr

Well, Ms. Lady. I love you, I love you, I love you
Jesus died 4 you
I don't want to bore you with my troubles but something bout yo love knocks me off...my feet, knocks me off my feet. Go head boy
See this is another level of music when love was real.
Alright Donell I hear u...u did GREAT!!!!!
Great voice. Soothing music. Easy on the eyes. Very talented man.
Started listening and couldn't turn it off. Good music always win
How I miss R&B songs without a rap verse at the end. Can't find those anymore.
Smh It's a damn shame
Realalist You are so accurate with that thought! lol
Realalist Teyana Taylor whole VII album is coo tho
Realalist I agree. If you listen to Memphis Bleek feat Donell called "I wanna luv you". Song is good but the raping made the song less great.
Same thing with Lil' Wayne and Lloyd - I want you.. That song would have been good without wayne.
i love those songs it make me happy what the men i love
This is one of my faviurite songs. I thought Stevie wrote this?
Yes he did. But Donell here laid it out with his own flava. Both are great, but I favor this one over Stevie’s.
Best Stevie Wonder remakes in no particular order
Ribbon in the sky-intro
Lately-Jodeci
Knocks me off my feet-Donell Jones
Fiya!!
AGREED!!
Yessir flip lately and ribbon tho
Those 3 definitely complete the top 4, but number 1 for me is K-Ci Hailey - If you think you lonely now (wait until tonight )
Gotta disagree with you on this song. Tevin Campbell sings it much better. Donell gets off key on that "something about your love that makes me weak and knocks me off my feet. It's not flowing in tune like it should.

One of my favorite songs. Too bad today’s music and will never be like this. Pure romance.
Still #JamminIn2025 & will continue too❤️🔥💯🦾
Listening in 2024
Still one of my favorites! This is what love, relationships, and marriages stood on...foundation of speaking and listening to the heart!
He did this song such justice! The best cover of it in my opinion !!!
I'm just going to say it. This is better than the Luther and Tevin covers. Way better.
You’re right
One thing I like about his videos is that the women in his videos are Brown skinned to dark skin. Don't get me wrong I'm not knocking light skin women biracial etc but most black videos now days have women of lighter colors.

Its the dimples for me 😍😍😍
