I who Have Nothing.

[@PrazeLeader]

2024 and I’m still enjoying this magic

[@isaacaragonmusic]

Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack would be IMMENSELY proud of this performance! Any man or woman can make music with their hands and voice...there are few among us who truly make music using their soul. Soul music is alive and well my friends! Thank you both for allowing us to feel such a beautiful gift, and for inspiring our next generation of soul singers.

[@Jillian15]

Amazing.... Can't believe what I'm hearing.

[@PoetAlejaibra]

I been such a big Shelby Johnson fan for years. She use to come perform every summer in Greensboro, NC. So underrated.

[@cheebateam]

So damn good.................................

[@MartinLutherMcCoy]

Nuff love

[@glenmontpiankhi]

Damn! Yes this is amazing. Everyone has already stated. So amazing no negatives. This is so church like yet not solely coming from the church , and this is being stated from someone who is not from the church, which shows the connection exists regardless of how we see the universe... that is what i feel from this song...

[@tajmabruno]

Thank you and she has a wonderful voice. If I had a voice like that I would never be quiet!

[@SugaSPofficial]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Thierry-one]

That was tight!!!

[@TI3GIB]

This, indeed, feels like a punch in the stomach. which is very sad, considering how chart music feels like a punch in the face. Simply put, amazing. Nothing else to describe it.

[@tajmabruno]

Amazing

[@slomaks]

This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've heard in a long time. I remember stumbling upon it some time last year and thinking it was great. Now, it's all I've been listening to for the past five days. Thank you Martin and Shelby. I wish you all the best and many songs like this one in the future.

[@jennifer9437]

I simply cannot believe what I just heard. THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL MUSIC! Live band you guys, really? You guys are so awesome. I felt like Steve Harvey on Kings of Comedy when he kicked the mic stand. Good music makes you just wanna scream! Keep doing what you guys do and keep God first.

[@therealshelbyj]

Thank U Jennifer :)

[@ajontaelv]

LOL.... I remember when you guys sang that song in NY at SOB's..... : ) I think you still have something that belongs to me sir.... : ) J/K

[@soulangel835a]

all i can say is wow mind blowing wish i was there in the audience

[@narviawilliams2340]

🌹👏👏👏Yesss!!Martin Luther McCoy🌹

[@MartinLutherMcCoy]

Many Thanks. I'm sure the legendary Shelby J appreciates the love as well. Stumbling across something that really means something to you is an awesome experience. I am happy to be a part of that. About those few small loyal fans, remember that small groups of people have been known to carry out purpose related exercises that challenged and then changed the world. I expect no less from the Rebel Souljahs out there. The time for action is upon us. Push the button-

[@therealshelbyj]

Listening to this duet is like being fed an incredibly delicious home cooked meal, forkful by forkful. Or should I say note by note? Thank you so much for sharing this; it is exceptional.

[@jaydarl2]

I've gone down a "I Who Have Nothing" rabbit hole tonight from the original Italian version to King, Hathaway/Flack, Bassey, Jones... I have to say this is a damn good cover.

[@spotswoodthenewt]

I didn't even know heaven was inside the Apache Cafe. This gives me chills! To only give 5*****'s? Wow. It's a rip-off. Keep on, keepin' on!

Does anyone know if Shelby has a cd or any music that I can purchase? Thanks in advance.

[@khamikins]

COrrection this song was originally done by Shirley Bassey in 1964. She was the highest selling black british female of her time

[@ninosimone]

oaktreeo3 that boy sang the hell out that song!!!!!!!!

[@BlindRubbernecker]

wow! Great arrangement of one of my favorite songs. As a guitarist, your beautiful arrangement has me thinking a performance in the vein of,.... George Benson? Thanks for the motivation . Can anyone say Peaches and Herb? You are great!!

[@judiriva1]

Ben E. King did the original in 1963. Check him out if you're not familiar with him.

[@kidcamille50]

[@sunwunyc]

[@mscotttx]

One word - "Genial"

[@theabsynthfairy]

[@knot2kwik]

Ben E. King sang it in 63. That could be what you're talking about.
