I worked in radio for over 40 years and many times it's Program Directors that miss songs like this, really a shame how so many great tunes don't get the spins due to a few opinions that are coerced by "perks".
I grew up listening to some of his music. I'm 49. I will always love his music. I'm a black man who will tell u this, he wasa musical genius!! Plenty of rap songs have his music as samples!! I cry sometimes when I hear his music. Makes me think about my parents.
As an overlooked singer + pianist I truly cried listening to this extremely talented white man that God blessed himself. He don't care what color you are...#AMEN
how come only Soul music does this? I don't see anyone saying anything about the other music genre's "oh yeah he's one of the best afro classical musicians" or " i love me some blue eyed rap"
@@Red4350 Because R&B was known as “race music” back in the day, basically black popular music; so when white people sing black music, it’s “blue eyed.”
My all time fav Caldwell gem….I wrote this song on the guitar 🎸 he says as plays a perfect piano 🎹 rendition…rip…another musical iconic legend passes away at a relatively young age 😢
Watching live performances, I always enjoy seeing the artist put unique nuances on the song, giving you a new version to listen to. Leave alone the piano, which has such a different (but still awesome) sound, the way he says "Some things will neeever chaaAAaange." at 0:55 is a good example.
My 6 year old wears a dress shirt and a tie and a brim and puts Bobby the man Caldwell on repeat and mirrors his every move. I have a whole new appreciation for this man and his music. This version is Too Cold. RIP, dear brother. Your music lives on, even in the children.
Yes he is in the class of Sinatra one incredible talent please listen to his UA-cam videos every song he has written is absolutely brilliant I'm in Sydney Australia love to see him live one day Thankyou Bobby!
it's a disgrace Mr. Caldwell never won a Grammy Award.. they should give him a lifetime achievement recognition or something
Yes, they should!
god bless you for this one..
so agree
Grammy award full crap they never really like soul song
Man, Grammy Award do not deserve his song. We all know that.
I'm glad that people like him don't get Grammy Award. They are out of this world, and their level can't be measured by silly award like Grammy
"I wrote this one on guitar".. but I'll just kill it here in piano! WOW dude is a musical genius!
Daniel Victor lmfao facts
True story.
@@FrankietheLawDog lmfao
Lol he is alot of people dnt know how many modern artist sampled his classic masterpeices.
That's what I'm sayin!!!
Bobby Caldwell is easily one of the 10 most underrated artists ever period, badd to the bone
agree!
One of the most underatted singers in history
Such a fantastic version… the talent is otherworldly. RIP Bobby, thank you for the music
I'm sitting here crying my God what talent that voice RIP . Thank You. Sincerely.
Even alone, without acoustics or back up subnets, he killed it. His voice is everything.
I seriously never get why he didn't go down as another Sinatra
I honestly like Bobby more. He's my favorite "crooner", if you will.
Because he's in a class all his own...
If there's a new Ratpack he's the leader
Head and shoulders above Sinatra. Not even in the same class. Bobby is a cool cat. Dope music.
EzaVinylAddict wtf did you just say?
Tears always drop when I listen to this
Sameee omg so heartfelt
I feel the same way!!
Me too.
Tears flowing 😢 beautiful song
Same
Since today it hits a different way... Rest in Peace, Mr. Caldwell. Thank you so much for truly unforgettable and soulful music.
So underrated... he is amazing....
He is living legend, my favorite artist from south korea
I worked in radio for over 40 years and many times it's Program Directors that miss songs like this, really a shame how so many great tunes don't get the spins due to a few opinions that are coerced by "perks".
The way he comes in right after he is off key and then crushes the entire performance with so much feeling. Incredible.
Awesome live performance. R.I.P. Bobby Caldwell 😢 🙏
Wow I’m on a binge of Bobby since he passed and his live performances are incredible!! 🙏🏽
What a gem! I’m actually pissed that he passed due to a stupid antibiotic. I don’t do antibiotics. No way. He should still be here on earth.
This brother is so talented!!
Agreed, he says at the start that he wrote this on his guitar and he goes and plays this on the piano. Rare talent, Bobby Caldwell.
rest easy bobby 😓🙏🕊️🔥
I grew up listening to some of his music. I'm 49. I will always love his music. I'm a black man who will tell u this, he wasa musical genius!! Plenty of rap songs have his music as samples!! I cry sometimes when I hear his music. Makes me think about my parents.
It’s difficult for me to listen to the entire studio version of this song without crying.
@@lmitchell3604 the original is bananas.
Biggie sampled this very song!
I’d never heard this before his Unsung episode. The SAMPLE 😮
Beautiful song
I'm Asian and for me his music truly embodies what beautiful music can do to transcend any boundaries or shackles we have on this earth
You can almost hear his soul. Can't explain it but you can.
I know what you mean. It’s because he’s lived what he writes.
ALWAYS MY FAVORITE BY HIM SO UNDERRATED BUT BEAUTIFUL SONG!
Ikr! This song was so underrated 😭
100% agree!!!
This song just sounds so good even in Piano 🤌 it’s spectacular
That voice...! Most singers would kill to keep their voices as fine through time as Bobby here. A beatiful man.
As an overlooked singer + pianist I truly cried listening to this extremely talented white man that God blessed himself. He don't care what color you are...#AMEN
Amen! 😇🙏
I can't believe he's gone.. I was hoping to meet him someday, tell him how much he's inspired me
He was so humble. A charming, gifted, warm and delightful man.
I love Bobby Caldwell. You will be greatly missed 😭
Blue eyed soul baby; the first time I went to See him live, His performance was flawless! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
how come only Soul music does this? I don't see anyone saying anything about the other music genre's "oh yeah he's one of the best afro classical musicians" or " i love me some blue eyed rap"

Wish I had seen him …feel horrible that I became immersed too late!
Bobby Caldwell, the brotha's musick is timeless.

Bravo Mr. Caldwell 👍
Incredible heart wrenching soulful romantic song. Listened to every word and is quite emotional. Well done and world class.
Who dislikes the king of blue eyed soul? Every time I here this song audio or live, I get chills.
