      sSo many vocalists blow out their voices early. Brian has saved his vocals and can sing as good now as he could in his 20’s. I’d not only put him up against artists his age, but I’d put him up against any 20-40 year old pop artist today. Cold chills every time I see this performance

    It's undeniable
    That we should be together
    It's unbelievable
    How I used to say
    That I'd fall never
    The basis is need to know
    If you don't know
    Just how I feel
    Then let me show you now
    That I'm for real
    If all things in time
    Time will reveal
    One
    You're like a dream come true
    Two
    Just want to be with you
    Three
    Girl, it's plain to see
    That you're the only one for me
    And four
    Repeat steps one through three
    Five
    Make you fall in love with me
    If ever I believe my work is done
    Then I'll start back at one
    It's so incredible
    The way things work themselves out
    And all emotional
    Once you know what it's all about, hey
    And undesirable
    For us to be apart
    I never would have made it very far
    'Cause you know you've got the keys to my heart
    One
    You're like a dream come true
    Two
    Just want to be with you
    Three
    Girl, it's plain to see
    That you're the only one for me
    And four
    Repeat steps one through three
    Five
    Make you fall in love with me
    If ever I believe my work is done
    Then I'll start back at one
    Say farewell to the dark of night
    I see the coming of the sun
    I feel like a little child
    Whose life has just begun
    You came and breathed new life
    Into this lonely heart of mine
    You threw out of the lifeline
    Just in the nick of time
    One
    You're like a dream come true
    Two
    Just want to be with you
    Three
    Girl, it's plain to see
    That you're the only one for me
    And four
    Repeat steps one through three
    Five
    Make you fall in love with me
    If ever I believe my work is done
    Then I'll start back at one

      J Smooove so true me too. People think that for an artist to "make it" or be "rated" he/she has to hit Drake or Taylor Swift status. I've read here someone say Luther Vandross was underrated? I'm like whaaaaaaat? just shut up.

    • @JSmooove
      @JSmooove 8 років тому +1

      eWorkx BAHAHAHAHAHAHA now that's just dumb. Luther underrated??? These guys held "drake" status before drake was around lol. Time has passed and the music changed since these guys were topping the charts. I for one enjoy these "oldies" when music was music. Nowadays there's very little music with any content. But like I said, trends have changed and for what ever reason, today's music is popular. But back in my time, it was guys like this who rode the top of the charts

    I don't get all those who say he still got it. He is even better than he ever was. The maturing in execution control and just sheer command of both instruments is remarkable. I don't know of any other contemporary of his who is this masterful. This rendition of this song is more evidence of his growth as it is remarkably better than the song we initially heard many years ago. That said, he does have exceptional talent within his family I believe. He is a great and I'm talking Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder et al kind of great, regardless of how one feels about his song writing. I don't think I have this level of proficiency in anything in my life.

    Yo.. my man STILL killin it!!!! I know my dude has sung this song millions of times and he must get a little tired of singing it so he gotta put mad variations and jazz it up. I was lovin this performance!! Loved the vocal runs (especially at 3:46) and jazzed up chords. Still beasting too!!

    "Back At One"
    It's undeniable... that we should be together...
    It's unbelievable how I used to say that I'd fall never
    The basis is need to know, if you don't know just how I feel,
    Then let me show you now that I'm for real...
    If all things in time, time will reveal...
    Yeah...
    One... you're like a dream come true...
    Two... just wanna be with you...
    Three... girl, it's plain to see that you're the only one for me...
    And four... repeat steps one through three...
    Five... make you fall in love with me...
    If ever I believe my work is done
    Then I'll start back at one
    (yeah)
    So incredible the way things work themselves out...
    And all emotional, once you know what it's all about, babe...
    And undesirable for us to be apart...
    Never would've made it very far...
    'Cause you know you've got the keys to my heart
    'Cause...
    One... you're like a dream come true
    Two... just wanna be with you
    Three... girl, it's plain to see that you're the only one for me
    And four... repeat steps one through three
    Five... make you fall in love with me
    If ever I believe my work is done
    Then I'll start back at one.
    Say farewell to the dark of night
    I see the coming of the sun...
    I feel like a little child
    Whose life has just begun.
    You came and breathed new life
    Into this lonely heart of mine.
    You threw out the life line
    Just in the nick of time.
    One... you're like a dream come true
    Two... just wanna be with you
    Three... girl, it's plain to see that you're the only one for me
    And four... repeat steps one through three
    Five... make you fall in love with me
    If ever I believe my work is done
    Then I'll start back at one.

    @M98747 Місяць тому

    As a musician, I don't think people understand just how insane his talent is. The voicings, passing chords, and reharmonizations are better than 99.9% of professional musicians anyway, and he's doing it WHILE singing.
    I'll admit, I had no idea he was this good. I'm speechless.

    Those chords tho! The intro to this song is actually my warm up. It's insanely genius how he puts these complex chords together so effortlessly in his songs. I've been listening to him since I was a kid and the question I keep asking myself is who taught him how to do that? lol
