He doesn’t sound bad and he still remembers the words so I’m happy! Be blessed Alex!! ❤❤

[@BillBene67]

I root for Alexander. Prayers for strength to him

[@KeciasTourLife]

Me too. He announced a few months ago that thru mid 2024 will be his farewell tour.

[@stephaniejohnson2403]

Yes prayers to/for Alex on his farewell tour and whatever he chooses to do after….. but I would love it if he just took some time off and came back out of “ retirement “ because Alex your fans will miss you too much.🥰

[@MeMb731]

​@@KeciasTourLifeThank you so much for sharing with us! It means a lot.

[@stephaniejohnson2403]

When he was at his peak in the 80’s, nobody could touch him. He’s lost a lot of his stage presence and voice range but he will always be known as the man with that incredible voice…but with that being said I love me some Alexander O’Neal and will always be a fan….yesssssssssss I will.💃🏿🥰

[@CleanMusicLover229]

Nobody could touch him? Are you serious?😂 Luther Vandross and Freddie Jackson

[@Penrose-wi6tx]

@@CleanMusicLover229Obviously the person was over exaggerating. They probably meant he was up there on their level. He was nice, “ back in the day”… drugs was his downfall.

[@stephaniejohnson2403]

⁠@@Penrose-wi6txNo, I wasn’t over exaggerating. It’s called being a fan. Alex to me back in the day I felt nobody could touch this man with his “voice” , stage presence. I’m just a fan of this man from the first time I heard him sing on his first album but especially when I heard If You Were Here With Me Tonight…..He just had that incredible voice even Jam and Lewis commented about his voice and what he could do with his voice. Yeah, Luther was Luther…we all loved us some Luther….. we all know that he’s Luther!!!

[@saniahmoultrie6742]

Me too!! His voice is very unique.

[@craigmack-cv3cp]

@@stephaniejohnson2403you have right to your opinion and I 💯 agree with you ! He was diff type singer than Luther .. or Freddie J . He had more grit 💜

[@snakedog77]

God, I hate drugs, it has really hurt our communities. I wish him nothing but the best. Keep fighting Alexander. What a gorgeous voice he had.

[@lindareeves1366]

This was painful to watch. 😮

[@ingodwetrustdellaware-inc8322]

The Lyrics its just amazing..

We love you Alexander. ❤️

[@deloresguye5688]

Still a Fan in 2023!

[@theseer360]

He was that dude in his day. It's sad to see what drugs have done to him. He will always be a legend to me! Peace and love brother!

[@gheechiedan9299]

[@Jeantte-v3l]

He need to do exactly what he doing happy to see him.

[@sheilapalmer9539]

[@williamsmith6872]

Man, the memories are making me cry. I love this song and loved being alive when this song was on the radio during this time period. The days seem so loving and love was in the air all the time.

[@sheilapalmer9539]

[@DavidWonnacott-b7w]

HEARSAY will always be that unique magic album that defined what a legend he really is xx

[@KeciasTourLife]

[@michaelskipper7016]

Love you Brother Alex!

[@suemarie6676]

I love him

[@carllee9479]

Alex can sing while he's doing anything effortlessly. He can fry chicken and sing his greatest hits at the same time.

[@VanTran-wl4xn]

Alex & Cherelle made lovely music together in the 80's ! 🥰He being born of a single mother from Mississippi, her from an upscale Beverly Hills community, daughter of an attorney. Both from totally different worlds, but lyrically meshed 'perfectly' in a professionally passionate way. Like the say 'Opposites Attract !' 💞

[@james-br5tv]

bless him.

[@sheilapalmer9539]

You are soso sososo incredible

[@josephrussell4625]

Was a fan long time. He was born singing, that's why his voice will never change.

[@craigblakes5499]

My favorite song by him. Jam and Lewis did their thing on this one

[@sheilapalmer9539]

You are a legend

[@cleopatrajones2024]

He actually SOUNDED good,

[@Saxyworld]

He's not high anymore. Just older. But his execution was on point. I love it! ❤

[@karenmartin5542]

You were one of my favorite artist back in the day and I still love you to this day.I am so sorry that you are going through this 🙏prayers to you Alex

[@nmcn1210]

Probably suffering from COPD which causes you to lose your breath easily....Still love his music

[@cynthiahenry5585]

🙏🏽

[@mickietaylor8186]

He sounds good

[@sheilapalmer9539]

You are so soso underrated

[@theequaliser8026]

I will always remember Alex when he was at his best, it's so sad to see him on drugs sad

[@DJ804]

‼️I can’t think of anything nice to comment so I will just share a good pancake recipe for Alex.. 1 cup milk 1 cup buttermilk 1/2 tablespoon butter, melted 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries, thawed 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen strawberries thawed 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen raspberries 1. In a large bowl, sift together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda and sugar. In a small bowl, beat together egg and milk and buttermilk. Stir milk and egg into flour mixture. Mix in the butter and fold in the blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries Set aside for 1 hour.A 2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle. or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve. EnJoy ✊🏾

[@ginagreer7999]

Wow! Got to try this! Thanks!👌

[@ohheybih]

The brother is alive and performing. That’s an easy compliment. ❤

[@mofun5315]

Now I'm gonna only say this once "Stay off that stuff"

[@alanjones3631]

What a shame to see Alex now struggling to perform this man in the eighties and early nineties no one to touch him with that velvet voice top of his game singing in concerts god bless you Alex you was one true talent sadly missed he will be when he hangs up that microphone

[@flamboiyenttalk7039]

The comments be so funny to me the dude old and so is his voice stop acting like his voice is going to be like it was in the 80s and if you a real fan he always performs like this shit the man can barely stand what y’all want him to do airwalk across the stage smh stop assuming that he is on drugs and enjoy the man while he still performs songs that touch our hearts

[@jjones7005]

He's high, but still good

[@jaybowden2658]

Yeah, when I saw him last night he was constantly frothing/foaming at the mouth… cocaine? (He is in this video too)

[@ohheybih]

@@jaybowden2658could it be because he doesn’t have teeth? Seems like he doesn’t have dentures in. But not sure.

[@jaybowden2658]

@@ohheybih wouldn’t that be more like drooling? Unfortunately with how pubs are these days, you meet a lot of people who are clearly on cocaine… and you would say that Alex was too if you came across him

[@ohheybih]

@@jaybowden2658 true lol

[@SQtlr]

Sad 😔

[@NitaBecks-g8p]

Hate to see him like this. This drug have corrupted every great entertainer but they continue to keep going to make us happy..we love you Alexander Oneal best wishes to you and your wife

[@XoxoMoot]

😢

[@leetheaarceneaux8151]

Is that really him ? Wow he looks so old .

[@XoxoMoot]

Drinking and drugging with aging is not good! He aged bad due to those vices!

[@GTTg-kr2xh]

That’s not age so much as drugs. Patti sounds great; Jeffrey Osborne sounds incredible- just saw him. Alex is a drug user and it really took a toll on his voice. I love his first three albums.

[@carlossantan3972]

life happens..... in his day he was baaaad!

[@sheilapalmer9539]

Please do some new jam s

[@beverlyhebron-randall5523]

His performance is painful to look at... he needs to hang it up 🫣🤫

[@ericdavis6261]

agree 💯

[@RB-gt8bf]

Understand he is on his farewell tour. He has decided it's time to hang it up.

[@jaybowden2658]

It was nice to see him but not nice to listen to him sing nor talk tbh. His backing band were great, and the engagement from his backing vocalists also helped to sweeten the whole thing (with his band). It would have no merit if it was an acoustic tour though…

[@deborahharris8092]

He was such a good looking guy in his day! He's just played a small theatre in middle England..a long way from home ! They said the backing singers carried him but he could sing! But struggled with his mobility. Lifestyle choice I guess.

[@jaybowden2658]

@@deborahharris8092 he was evidently on cocaine when I saw him this month

[@ronaldvaughn7087]

Ummhh !! Ummhh !! Ummhh !! 😯 Amazing What A Trio Of: Age Drugs & Alcohol Has Done To Destroy Alexander O'Neals Voice & Stage Performance So Sad Is This

[@sexass1kg]

Pray for him if you can, never know what a person has or is going through. I think he did fantastic to me.

[@pharoahmonk50]

I am going to need Alexander to stop the foaming when he sings, smh

[@leeshepherd5669]

Hes back on drugs .....WOW!! hes really looking ruff acting awful But he still can sing!!
