He’s 74 now and still has that golden voice. He truly has an angelic voice.

Not to mention that time appeared to stop aging this man!! I hope I look that great at 74.

When ever I hear this version from Al Green I get goosebumps. What a performance.

[@flossie1362]

....exactly....and those backing singers...their harmonies so sweet and subtle

[@raphaelabernathy7642]

That last “ I wanna know” is touching my soul.

[@spookymulder8208]

This song is like the feeling of the cool breeze in fall, and watching all the leaves fall from the trees when another year's end is on the way. You can't shake it.

[@grego5284]

I sure like the way you put that. 😎

[@alexherrera4078]

Great way to describe the ambiance this song makes one feel🍂

[@GoldenLady1007]

Al Green is a song stylist. One of the absolute best who's ever done it.

[@josiahpulemau6214]

The type of voice that comes once or twice in a lifetime.

[@josearias4386]

In my teens , he IS the best

[@kevinsimpson2352]

Al wasn't performing for the audience.. He was performing for musicians!

My Mom died in March 2024. She was a physically beautiful, super smart, interesting, artistic woman of the 1960's. Raised three kids, earned a Ph.D., married for 37 years, divorced, and found love again in her late 60's. In 2023, she was diagnosed with UTUC--one of the worst cancers ever. She died at 76 with SO much more life to live. Even until the end, she gave,and gave, and gave... Her body currently resides at #StonyBrook and is hopefully helping students.

Alguém ouvindo Al Green em 2025? Se quiser falar de amor, fale com o… Al Green. Afinal, no brilho dos anos 1970, nenhum cantor de soul soube combinar tão bem a explosão energética do ritmo com as linhas românticas escritas por ele. Sendo uma das vozes mais reluzentes do soul, o artista dominou a arte de fazer e interpretar hits românticos! Tempo em que as músicas tocavam os corações... sentimentos verdadeiros...❤

[@stephonpervez2760]

Thanks for uploading this video... When I was young my mom's would clean house on Sundays and cook a hellava dinner... And she would her day playing Al green albums... And she would smile, like a Queen and do her little stepping.. She didn't know I use to watch her.. Right before the Lord took her back... I told her how I use to watch her... And she smiled.. Like we were back in the 70's... And told me she knew I was watching her that's why she was smiling... I know today is Father's day... But father never forget it our mothers that helped us.. Become Father's... God bless all.... ✌️

Esta canción es de los bee gees pero Al Green la llevo a un lugar inalcanzable. Cuando voy caminando del trabajo a mi casa la voy escuchando y siento que el ser humano es increíble¿ como puede crear cosas tan hermosas como estás?

[@eclipsetutorialvideo]

Wow what a version, better than all the other live versions. His voice changed but when he sang " about the sorrow " he sounded like in his younger years.

[@barrystevenson1452]

Lyrics: I can think of younger days when living for my life Was everything a man could want to do I could never see tomorrow But I was never told about the sorrows How can you mend a broken heart? How can you stop the rain from falling down? How can you stop the sun from shining? What makes the world go round? How can you mend this broken man? How can a loser ever win? Please help me mend my broken heart And let me live again I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees And misty memories of days gone by We could never see tomorrow No one said a word about the sorrow And how can you mend a broken heart? How can you stop the rain from falling down? How can you stop the sun from shining? What makes the world go round? And how can you mend this broken man? How can a loser ever win? Please help me mend my broken heart And let me live again Please help me mend my broken heart And let me live again
