One of the most beautiful voices of the last thirty years - totally under-appreciated.
A totally underrated talent. You could feel her voice in every part of you.
One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Written by Brenda Russell, Oleta put so much feeling in this song, I just cry at the end.
First heard this song when I was in college. Nobody sounds like Oleta. She's transcendent. Amazing voice.
One of the best 'soul' songs EVER ❤
Oleta will be 70 years old on May 4th this year. Such a beautiful voice!
Played this at my brother's funeral 32 yrs ago...and this song still gets me every time
I ball my eyes out every time I hear this song.
This was such a good song. I think Brenda Russell who sang Piano In The Dark wrote this song as well.
Oohh I love that song!
One of the best songs in the history of R&B or jazz, and her voice's timbre, soulfulness, power, emotion, and agility--along with her piano playing--are LUSCIOUS, poignant, and awe-inspiring. Oleta and this song stop me in my tracks every time. If I met her, I'd bow and kiss her hand. She and the song are bliss and joy.
This song definitely gets you in the feels. Anyone who’s ever been in love, knows the feeling of needing your partner to just get here -any way possible, because you need them. You need your person.
Oleta Adams is also a masterful pianist and one class act. I truly love this song and I love y'all's reaction to it.
This song and her voice makes me cry too Asia. Great reaction you two.
I feel you Asia. This song touches something in my soul, the yearning for and missing a loved one.
Saw Brenda Russell in concert many years ago. She told how the story of how this song came to her while standing in her kitchen doing dishes.
GenXer here, I really love watching this generation enjoy the music we grew up with. You are being blessed with fantastic music, enjoy
This was on every radio station in the 90’s! Love it! You’ve no idea how gifted a singer she is until she begins. And then you can’t get enough. She’s a great pianist too!❤
Oleta was a background singer and pianist for "Tears for Fears", and they decided she needed an album of her own, after she was signed to a record deal, they helped to produce the album. Her career just didn't take off after that for some reason, thought she did sell better in the UK.
That's not really quite true. In 1985, Adams was discovered by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, the two members of Tears for Fears, while she was performing in the Peppercorn Duck Club at the Hyatt Hotel in Kansas City. while they were on a US tour. In 1987, Orzabal and Smith contacted her to invite her to join their band as a singer and pianist on their next album, The Seeds of Love.
In 1989, the album was released and the single "Woman in Chains", sung as a duet by Adams and Orzabal was a hit.
This led to her being offered a recording contract by their record label, Fontana Records. After meeting with various producers,Roland Orzabal ended up producing the record 'Circle of Life' himself.

@normandavidtidiman9918 thank you very much for this information 🙏
Wow! Haven’t heard this since my baby girl was born! She’s 31 now😉 great singer and song👍
Omg I haven't heard this song in 30 yrs. Lovely just lovely
Ps correct me if I'm wrong anyone. doesn't she play the piano on this too?
Oh Asia, here’s a big bear hug coming your way!❤❤❤❤
One of the most beautiful self expressed songs ever. Great choice.
Adams's version of "Get Here", co-produced by Roland Orzabal from the band Tears for Fears (for whom she had performed the female vocals on the hit single "Woman in Chains" a year earlier), became her signature song.
Her voice penetrates the soul!
This song reminds me of the people and times that have entered our lives and exit in death or move away, its truly a song about what we experience in life. 1991 a long time ago.
Dang miss these good tunes, thanks for sharing. Asia your heart is gold 🤗🤗🤗 BJ, she's a keeper😊👍 you guys are awesome
Facts!!! 💐
I met Oleta Adams once and she was so gracious and beautiful. What an amazing voice and woman.
One of my all time favorite songs. Her voice is spectacular.
So talented! This song, plus Circle of Life, plus Everything Must Change. All magic. Makes us think of our relationships.
I remember hearing this song in the early 90’s back in the UK and it was absolutely awesome!
Oleta’ s voice is so pure, soulful and just perfect! What an amazing talent!
Powerful delivery, every note is wholesome and not choppy. Perfect artist
One of my favorite songs of all time!
Was the F & B manager at a club in L.A. through the 80's into 90's. She was one the artist that played the there a number of times. Astonishing performer. Not only singer but piano player as well. Absolutely love her.
One of my all-time favorite songs! She’s so amazing on this one.
One of the all time great songs.
Awww ❤️Asiaaaa❤️ I love you my friend🫂💞🫂 Thankyou!!! For sharing your feelings🥹 and your beautiful memories of your mom💯❤️❤️❤️
You are so welcome! Love you Donna!
This is one of the best love songs ever and her voice is beautiful! Asia you’re completely right, this is a great great song! Asia, also I will always remember I was living in Chicago and the person I was with, at the time, we would go to this piano bar and the singer would sing this song and we always thought we always be together but it didn’t end that way, but I still love the song and Oleta Adams vocals
When I was in the Army. It was the song for Gulf War 1. Epic.
I’m a 61 year old Retired Marine and I cried when Asia did.
I was introduced to Oleta Adam’s music in college. I immediately bought everything she made. This was in the 80’s. She also does a remake of the gospel song Beams of Heaven….. beautiful.
Love Asia's reaction, you can always tell when the song is moving her.
"Woman in chains" with Tears for Fears is amazing as well!
My tears are flowing as well. This song hit home hard today remembering events that started on this day 36 years ago. 💔 that still bring up so much pain and love and missing someone dear.
Ms. Oleta Adams has one of the greatest voices in the music industry. Her voice resonates in every cell in one's body. This song is the greatest purest love song. Thank you Oleta Adams, we love you beautiful lady.
I have never heard this song before , nor even heard OF it. Not sure why I saved it to listen to later, besides the fact that it is on Asia & BJ's channel. But the song is beautiful, and Oleta Adam's voice is too. Your soft heart, Asia, is reassuring in this world of hatred and vengeance.
Thank you for the video.
Beautiful song originally sung and written by Brenda Russell.
One of my favorite songs of all time. Beautiful voice. Great reaction, I love how Asia had to refill her tear ducts mid song
The memories suddenly exploded in my head! I was 25 again!
This song reminds me of my first love, he was from another country across the world and went home every summer & then returnd in fall. For 5 years I would wait months. When this gorgeous heartbreaking song plays it brings it all back. Oleta sang it like no other could have except maybe Whitney. Just beautiful & bittersweet. Thanks for the memories.
Oleta Adams = so beautiful voice and songs... check out her song from Circle of Life: You've Got to Give Me Room. Love your reactions!
That voice is as thick and warm as it gets 🥺❤
Circle of One is my Fave… Beautiful Voice ❤
First written and sung by Brenda Russell, Oleta’s cover is so beautiful ! Classic! Almost makes me sad, after the 90’s love songs and power ballads were not popular anymore , what a shame …
She has a legendary voice. Asia would love the cover of this song done by Brenda Russell - who also made a Luther vandross hit famous, "if only for one night." 👍💕
Oh, this song is just soo beautiful. I’ve loved it since it came out. Her voice, the music, the words…just beautiful.
I love Oleta. I was at one of her first concerts in Utrecht The Netherlands, I think in 1990 and since then she is part of my life. This song has been sung by a Swedish singer at my wedding in Sweden and has been always part of my life as you can see. For me the most undervalued artist in the world.
Yep. This song still gets to me after 30+ years.
It took on new meaning a few years back... And I'll just leave it there.
Not only is this most beautiful songs Oleta's voice is sooo beautiful. I wish we got to enjoy more of her talent.
Watching the two of you and loving this beautiful song 🎵 by Oleta Adams is astounding. I dont want to say this here, but honestly, you two as black people can relate clearly to this song, that the two of you can critic and judge the level and degree and impact this song for your generation and maybe personally.
I must admit, i am a Filipino, and we love songs like this that made it so famous anytime of the year, until now. And honestly, this song came out in the 80s, which is my era of very good black R&B music, jazz, and love songs.
Honestly, you can't hear this type of song nowadays. Comparing the music today and those days in the 80s is incomparable. It is so powerful that it can speak of a love relationship that no matter how far that person importance and significance, you need to get there. And that is about this song for me .
Try to listen to other black woman artists who made a hit single song that shook the air waves of every country in the world
1. Brenda Russell - Piano In the Dark
2. Oletta Adams - Get here if you can
3. Anita Baker
Soooo beautiful ,all the way around! 🌟❤️✨
Woman in Chains, 1 my top 3 Tears for Fears song with Oleta Adams..... awesome 🎶🎶
My top album to play in 1990 was Oleta’s Circle of One. ❤
This is my all-timeout beautiful song! I think it was in the movie “Jason’s Lyric”
I love you showing your emotions Asia❤️ the beauty of this song is overwhelming. I'm 52 years old and I kind of like to think about it as Someday my knight in shining armor will come along and I'm asking him to get here if you can❤️
That’s straight outa Gospel Church right there!❤
Awesome song and awesome vocals. 👍👍👍
Beautiful song, one of the best!
Oleta didn't write the song but her voice is absolutely amazing.
Saw her perform in uk at 1990 Knebworth Concert 💜👍🎩
This is such a weird memory to have but hearing this song reminds me of when a few friends of mine convinced me to cut out of school early one day during my junior year of HS (1991) and my friend was singing this song as if she was putting on a concert in the backseat of my other friend's car as we were driving away from the school parking lot. I wish we had camera phones back then because it was hilarious.
Please be aware that she is playing the piano on this track as well. I've always said that if someone is ever smart enough to tap Oleta to sing the "Star Spangled Banner", Whitney Houston's version will immediately be dropped to the #2 spot!
I love let’s Adams. I discovered her after hearing her in a song on a TV show. Didn’t know her by name but I was obsessed. I had to try to find out who she was. She was covering jimmy cliffs Many Rivers to Cross. It was so moving. Check it out. Also Circle of One, I Just Had to Hear Your Voice,Rhythm of Life, I Knew You When, Love Begins at Home. So many great songs by one of the best voices of our time.
Beautiful Voice I seen her in person reminds me lot like Stephanie Mills very powerful
Definitely in my top 10 fave songs of ALL TIME. I have a list of songs I always play when I am driving , this song is ALWAYS ON MY PLAY LIST. ❤❤❤❤
Finally this reaction. Felt the same way when I first heard. Love “there is always something to get over”; in life & in relationships. Also - Oleta’s build up of her vocals
This song if my memory serves me right was the anthem the British Soldiers serving in Iraq adopted as their anthem to fam n friends.
She transports me to a jazz piano bar, every time I hear it. 🔥💜
And I feel like I need to visit my Mom next Christmas 😉
😍🥰😭 My favorite song .... when it came out I was 19 & my 1st love got locked up in neighborhood drug sweep & tho most went home, we didnt enuf to bale him for 3 months & went to bed listening and singing this song ... ex husband now but song still #1!
Such a beautiful voice and a beautiful song. My son has been in the Air Force for 10 years now and I listen to this song every time he is sent overseas 😢
I see the love you show to each other, you both make my day often, thank you both so much !!! Papa Ray
Love love her voice. If God graced me with a voice I’d wanna sound like her. Love love this song.
The first time I ever heard this song is when Oleta was performing it on the daytime "Joan Rivers Show" way back when. So much about it made my eyes water up. I never tire hearing it. Definitely a rare song that goes deep to the heart. Peace Folks.
The voice of a lioness.Never ever gets old. Beautiful.
This was the “theme song” for the troops coming home from the first gulf war.
Love this version of this song.
Oh My Gosh!!! Thank you so much for this, one of my most favorite songs ever and for whatever reason, it’s been wayyyyyy too long since I’ve heard it. Beautiful voice, lyrics and music….one of the best of the best. The feeling that evokes just touches the soul. Again, thank you. 💗
Love this song and her voice! ❤️👍👍👍
This song just makes me cry everytime I hear it.
What a voice!
BEAUTIFUL 💐❤️
I've always loved this song. Her voice is amazing and the lyrics are so great! Thanks for this reaction! ✌💙✌
Ahhhh perfection 💕
Great song.tks
Her voice just hits 😢
This song "SUMS" up true Love in a beautiful song! Going on my Playlist! Is there a song out there that expresses this from a man's ♥ heart? Thank you
This was written/sung by Brenda Russell in 1988. I like both versions.
I like Russell's version, but Oleta Adams owns this song. Not even close.
@@jessieball6195 Adams is good. But Russell gave her the words in this song. Everyone brings something to a platform, how it is used, creates a master to have additional pieces add to it.
The year this came out to 2024, this has always made my lip quiver.
Something there speaks to my soul. Beyond race and locations, we find ourselves in.
Still an Angel speaking waves of emotion.
So beautiful
I love the song myself
And the lyrics. Oh my. Just beautiful. Perfect combination of voice, lyrics, and piano.
