    People don't realize that Luther had been toiling in the entertainment industry for 12 years and was 30 years old when this song was released. Sometimes success can be immediate, other times it's living in obscurity for years before you get that break. You can have the greatest voice in the world and may never get that chance. Never Too Much was 12 years in the making from his time performing on the first season of Sesame Street, to the misses with his group Luther, to writing commercial jingles and performing with groups you've never heard, like Mascara, to his first taste of success with the group Change. This is Luther's time to shine, and once he got the opportunity, the rest, is history.

    I absolutely love his facial expressions in this. He didn't just lip sync and "phone it in." He put real effort in it. My favorite part is when he talks about seeing his love standing at the door, and he gives that sweet, happy smile and drops down a little. My heart melts when I see that! That voice, that personality...there will never be another like Luther.

    I swear it is so unbelievable that so many of our brightest stars in the sky were taken away much too early. How could we lose Luther, Whitney, Michael, Prince, Barry, etc. They gave us so much, but we know they had so much more to give. Cherish those who provide the soundtracks to our lives, for they are never promised for tomorrow!

      Patti Labelle vouched for him early in his career. Miss Patti told the story of how they met on Andy Cohen's show. Apparently Luther was an accountant or something like that at the time but he was a massive Patti fan so he brought a rack of women's gowns and snuck into the theater where Patti was performing, claiming he was a stylist and then he wormed his way to Patti's room and they became instant best friends.

      For some reason that song just hits it for me. I am bi polar but Luther can put me in a decent mood. TY Mr. Vandross and I hope you are singing in heaven and making all those angels smile.

    My mom used to played this songs , when we were kids , she love this song and would sing and dance by her self. We never understood the song and the meaning of the words back then but we knew we liked it a lot. Now I know what my mom was feeling when this song was playing. Thank you ,mom for this gem you drop on us .

    Luther was FIRE! This track was definitely a trendsetter. Marcus Miller (bass)definitely set the bar high! Go on y'all!
