Ashford & Simpson
Nickolas Ashford (May 4, 1941 - August 22, 2011) and Valerie Simpson (born August 26, 1946)
As performers, Ashford & Simpson's best-known duets are "Found A Cure" (1979) and "Solid (As a Rock)" (1984 US and 1985 UK). The duo was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2002. Ashford and Simpson were also recipients of The Rhythm & Blues Foundation's Pioneer Award in 1999, and ASCAP's highest honor, the Founder's Award in 1996. The duo essentially had two careers: one as a successful writing and producing team and the other as singers and performers themselves.

Undoubtedly the best husband/wife team, their music is timeless.

It’s 2023 & I still sing 🎤 this! A timeless story and sound, built to outlast the evil distractions of a fallen world 🌎 This song-story encourages me, as a writer, to keep going the distance ❤Rest In Paradise Dear Nick Ashford! Thank you for keeping the music flowing for us Mrs. Valerie Simpson 😘

[@mssplivinggatesforum1889]

There will NEVER be another Nick and Val..

[@santiagosantarge819]

Back then I didn't need drugs, just a bad ass stereo and a few African sculptures . Clean living and smooth jazz.

[@claudiareynolds3725]

Beautiful lyrics and voices so full of feelings. Just the right amount of sadness and hope. RIP Nick Ashford. Their love was reflected in the music they made.

[@tonydavis190]

Just heard this song for the first time on satellite radio...had to check out the video so here I am.... mmm mmm mmm...so damn smooth & soulful! I swear I was born during the wrong time (1978) cause I love this old school R&B! They don't make music like this any more...and it's a damn shame!

[@dailmcdavid9981]

Beautiful ballad 1980 was a good year for them .

[@jimmiesmith5811]

From their last warner bros album before they went to capital

[@ritacunningham1785]

Absolutely my favorite Ashford and Simpson song. I had the absolute pleasure to see them multiple times in Chicago and they never disappointed. I agree with the person who said the Best Husband and Wife team EVER. You can never get tired of listening to them or Phyllis Hyman. Both Nick and Phyllis gone too soon.

[@jeanettetimmons716]

I love the way they loved one another and showed it in their videos and their songs. RIP KING KNOW THAT SHE MISSES YOU AS WELL AS YOU YOUR CHILDREN AND FANS. THERE WILL BE NO ONE OR COUPLE LIKE ASHFORD AND SIMPSON

[@No.1rankbukealmighty]

CLASSIC 4 EVER🤝🏿💪🏿💯👏🏿🔥🏆

[@michaelraffington1002]

As a 🇯🇲 I remember listening to a program called Float On, this song is synonymous with that show. This is a great song. Well written and properly sung.

[@caroljones3685]

JBC Fm Stereo Dalton closing song 11.55 am

[@anthonycbrown1952]

These superstars are fully embedded in the American Songbook. Whether it be as Ashford and Simpson or for their work with Motown, they made their mark and are legends. Ain't No Mountain High Enough is a national anthem to many.

[@jeffreychandler8666]

I never experienced the opportunity to observe them perform in person. I can say, the enormous beauty and messages that they reflect to me is quite special. It is very obvious that the composition of every song from Nick & Valerie, is a deep reflection of the love that they have for one another. A very deep and serious love that they have expressed from the heart. How blessed all of us are, who listen very attentively.

[@lloydwaynes9286]

Beautiful couple and beautiful music
