I’ve heard this song a million times and still got goosebumps listening to it here! Please listen to “BEEN SO LONG” by Anita Baker. So many others to choose from to by her!!!
This song when it came out, I had just given birth to my new born son. I used to sing this song to him and he’d fall fast asleep in my arms. Well that son of mine will be 35 years old this Friday. Sweet Love is a classic and it will never get old. Check out “Body and Soul” by Anita If you haven’t already.
Anita Baker swept up every award for this first/sophomore album. Were talking best new artist, best song, song of the year etc etc. Its been great watching you react to the "songs of OUR lives".
...and she still got it! People not only love her music, they love her! The tribute to her was beautiful because she's so humble. On the playlist of my life of ALL music Anita Baker is in my top 5 of artists.💖
sure was...AND all about "sweet love" and romance, something the young dudes forget or don't learn about in some of today's music. BTW ... Pendergrass/White might help them out also
These 1980s-1990 s vocalists are my shit. A few 70s because that was when Chaka came into the picture. The 70s and late 60s also gave us Stevie Wonder. Thats another world
One of my top 3 favorite ladies of R & B, even when she 1st came out & pple were saying her voice was too deep. Love 😍 her from the 1st note till the 12th of forever!
Now this is a real r&b classic ‼️ You know exactly what song this is from the first 🎵 note. To do Anita justice start with songs from The Songstress; Angel, No More Tears, Sometimes, Best Thing Yet. Then on to the Rapture album which this song is from
I love Anita, again you should check out ‘Fairytales’ and I don’t know if you reacted to ‘Angel’ by Anita Baker yet, if not. You should do ‘Angel’ first and then ‘Fairytales’, just an suggestion from an old-head 😂😂
Ms Anita, Another Queen, sweet reaction, great to see your appreciation for good music 👏🏽💃🏽🎶🕺🏽Perth Western Australia, we knew she had the vibes alright!
The first time I heard the name Anita Baker was when my first gf’s mom liked “easy listening” music on a station here in Houston. We were in her car, so obviously I wasn’t going to say a word. When I heard her voice, as a young 20’s headbanger…I was like *nods* Damn….nothing negative to say at all!!
Anita Baker's voice is so rich and luxurious! You just get enveloped in it and don't want the song to end! Try her song "Rapture" if you haven't done so already.
The incomparable Anita Baker. May I suggest that you look her up on Wikipedia. I can’t even begin to describe her artistry and her vocal acumen. That whole rapture album was so many Grammy awards, so many American music awards. It is a jazz classic to this very day although it came out in the late 80s. Dear friend of mine is her bass player. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
It's magical listening to Aniya Baker. Watching this reaction made it even better. When you watch her video you'll see that she sings with her entire body.
Ah, yes…Anita… Love me some Ms. Baker! IMO, only a true melophile can appreciate the harmonically and expertly produced music that brings out her amazing vocals. :)
Yesssss -- Anita! Love the reaction. Also check out Stephanie Mills, "The Power of Love," and "Home." Stephanie is another vocal power power house. Back in the day, artists could ACTUALLY sing.
I agree. Power of Love by Stephanie Mills is the business! Have you heard Power of Love by Angela Winbush? I love that version as much if not more. Angela wrote Power of Love.
One of my deepest loves of my life, this was our album, our song. She passed away recently. I feel her with me every-time I hear any song from this album, I still feel her love
When it's all said and done, your favorite Anita Baker song will be Same Ole Love. Watch and see. Great reaction. She does have the vibe. Keep diving in on her catalogue and enjoy. Peace
Check out Anita Baker's "How Fast, How Far" she made for the 1992 Olympics. There is a video for it as well. Awesome and somewhat rare performance. She is beautiful in the video too!
One of my favorite Anita Baker songs! I got to finally see her perform live about 2 maybe 3 years ago at Radio City Music Hall as part of her farewell tour❤🎶
I’ve heard this song a million times and still got goosebumps listening to it here! Please listen to “BEEN SO LONG” by Anita Baker. So many others to choose from to by her!!!

Yessssssssssssssss yes yes 💯💯💯

Can’t go wrong with Anita Baker. She has her own lane. Always laid back.

Nobody better than Lady Anita Baker in her day! No gimmicks, no skimpy costumes, no booty shaking---just pure talent.
This song when it came out, I had just given birth to my new born son. I used to sing this song to him and he’d fall fast asleep in my arms. Well that son of mine will be 35 years old this Friday.

Anita Baker "You Bring Me Joy"....this lady makes me wanna fix a drink.
Just go ahead and do the whole album. No point in choosing, do all of it!
yes EXCELLENT album
Word
ReL talk
Angel was Anita's first big hit.
Not correct, This song was her first number one.
@@jmrx12 Actually, "Angel" was a top 5 single for Anita in 1983. "Sweet Love" hit 3 years later, in '86.
This is the song that made me fall in love with her voice, back in 1986, while I was stationed in Germany.
Fond memories of my childhood are rare, but I do have ones of hearing Anita's voice while riding in the car.
These 1980s-1990 s vocalists are my shit. A few 70s because that was when Chaka came into the picture. The 70s and late 60s also gave us Stevie Wonder. Thats another world
Listen to Anita’s entire catalog and you will be a happy camper.
Anita brings the loveliest looks on your face.
One of my top 3 favorite ladies of R & B, even when she 1st came out & pple were saying her voice was too deep. Love 😍 her from the 1st note till the 12th of forever!
This song brings back memories!! Freshman in college and met my first love! This was our song! ❤️❤️
Classic Anita!💃🔥💃🔥💃🔥💃🔥 Yessssssir!
I love your reactions to the greatest music from the past. The Oldies but Goodies.
Those drums in the beginning.....her vocals! When this first came out I was in the 8th grade. IT sounds SO much better now!
Now this is a real r&b classic ‼️ You know exactly what song this is from the first 🎵 note. To do Anita justice start with songs from The Songstress; Angel, No More Tears, Sometimes, Best Thing Yet. Then on to the Rapture album which this song is from
THE SONGSTRESS! TY!! for bringing her back! She is incredible!!
Anita Baker, is a top tier talent.
You're the only reactor that I actually enjoy hearing sing or harmonize while grooving with the song.
I love Anita, again you should check out ‘Fairytales’ and I don’t know if you reacted to ‘Angel’ by Anita Baker yet, if not. You should do ‘Angel’ first and then ‘Fairytales’, just an suggestion from an old-head 😂😂
Please do Fairy Tales and Been So Long!! Omg!! Fan for Life!! 🙌🏽🔥♥️
Love your Reviews!! 💥🙌🏽🥰✔🔥🎶
Huge Anita Baker's fan... and Fairytales is one of my all time favorites (along with Goid Enough)
The best of Anita Baker has all of her hits on it,
Most of the people that are commenting on this is aging their selves, bc you have to be anywhere from 40yrs old and up to really listen to her music.
i love how you listen to and feel the whole song, no interruptions.. 😊
What a voice. No one sounds like Anita Baker!! So soulful. So full of love.
Ms Anita, Another Queen, sweet reaction, great to see your appreciation for good music 👏🏽💃🏽🎶🕺🏽Perth Western Australia, we knew she had the vibes alright!
Ms Nita Baker got her own lane, highway, freeway, overpass, underpass and every other pass you can think of….🔥🔥🔥
Heather Headley “In My Mind” and I Wish I Wasn’t (Radio version)
This song turned me into an Anita fan. Her voice is one of a kind. Love her!

My sophomore year of high school, 15 years old. I was vibing to it like you're doing right now. This is my favorite by her.
Her vioce is everthing!!
Great reaction Satori. Please react to Anita Baker's "Caught Up In The Rapture" Thank you. Remain Blessed.
Mystery Anita Baker
That was my riding song in the car on cassette daily.
Any music that gives you chills when the artist sings is genuine,the conviction in the voice, will bring feelings
Owhhh, you should do "Body and Soul". That song is sooo beautiful! (studio version incl. outro).
I get chills from head to toe every time I listen to that song. She sounds exquisite on the song and looks exquisite in the video.
"ANITA🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥BAKER!" .
You were born to make sure these amazing artists still get their props today!
The first time I heard the name Anita Baker was when my first gf’s mom liked “easy listening” music on a station here in Houston. We were in her car, so obviously I wasn’t going to say a word.
