Those background singers tho!😍

[@mariacromero]

I’m so grateful the spirit of Donnie Hathaway’s talent lives on in Ms. Lalah Hathaway. ❤ Criminally underrated and should be more widely known. They all tore this song up.

[@Nell_3]

Donny is an icon and his voice is flawless. I say is because I play his songs everyday and it always feels new and a find a note I missed😅😅Layla is definitely his daughter.🥰

LALAH's HAIR THO❓❓

[@margaritaestrada2844]

There should have been a GIANT soul train line for this one!

[@mcpheejesus5945]

Clean cut fun with no lewdness or clownery. Mr. Luke shined bright & stood out with those polished vocals & varied octaves. He stepped his game up by even coming out looking like a young version of Frankie Beverly. At first glance, I thought it was Frankie. Bravo all of you, including the background vocalists & bad to the bone band! Shout out to Frankie Beverly & Maze for all the hit-making old-school jams & precious memories. God bless & keep you for always.

[@tangled55]

Luke James just gives me chills. He just does.

[@jdfodio]

A beautiful harmonic tribute!

[@inspirationalempressoflove220]

Don't know who that first guy is but he wasn't the strongest vocal choice on leading a major classic song such as this... You gotta come in hitting them first lyrics....🎶You make me happy....🎶 strong like Frankie did on this song.....😂 Anywhere you play this song around a group of us black folks....we all know that....that's why the whole room be ready to get it right all in sync and on que when first lyric hit....🎶You make me happy🎶 You mess that up it's like scratching the needle on the record like Martin Lawrence did in House Party....and everybody stopped dancing and yelled....Balial!!!! 🤨🙄😂🤣 Lalah can sing the darn ABC's and make it sound good.....but truth is...Kenny and Luke could've handled this whole song by themselves and banged the heck out of it. Kenny nailed that bridged part....and Luke....well....Luke gone be Luke any time you hand him the mic...that man is just extremely gifted and I swear he is born in wrong era....he is for sure an old soul in a new generation....Lol😂 Looking like he is Channeling Frankie Beverly with that outfit, cap and beard....Luke came ready ready per usual....the man NEVER fails the assignment....and I'm lovin' it 😂🥰 💃🕺 I would have loved to have heard just Luke and Kenny perform this song together...they could've handled it and did the song a great justice and made Frankie Beverly very proud. But this was still a great job with everyone. 👍🙌💜🙌

[@GiGi52020]

Always have to have negativity in the comments from one of our own. That comment about his singing wasn't necessary. Uplift sista ... Not tear down!
