Peter Cetera - If You Leave Me Now (Live)

[@beaconterraoneonline]

Real instruments, real singer, no auto-tune ... nothing better.

Agree. Beatiful arrangement.

Peter setera un ídolo de mi juventud

[@hansgordy]

The voice of Chicago. The voice of a generation.

[@chrisschrecker5497]

Chicago screwed up by not working out a better arrangement where he could do solo work and still be part of the band. They never really recovered from his departure. Totally unnecessary, but like any divorce irreconcilable. 🥲

[@trlegendario]

Acababa de conocer a mi actual novia en 2010 y escuchamos esto en la radio. Ese momento mágico nos marcó de por vida. Gracias Peter!!!!! 😜

[@Holgi1904]

In the late 70s I was fresh out of HS and in college. Peter Cetera and Chicago were flooding airwaves. Just a legendary voice and music time it was 😌

[@Annabella272]

One of the most distinct, awesome voices of all time.

[@momoka2859]

Saw him play this song as Chicago in 1976 with my high school sweetheart. The song was number 1 at the time. I remember it like it was yesterday,

[@bubbajeph]

That was Chicago then. My 1st paying concert was Chicago in 1976 @ Norfolk Scope, Virginia. The person that replaced him could not hold his athletic supporter. Peter was the VOICE!

[@chicagomusicfan8817]

@@bubbajeph I’ve never heard it said that way before but I completely agree. No one can ever match that voice.

[@pattyoneill6724]

I remember this song also, and his unique voice. Peter Cetera is classically trained and talented. Is a beautiful song and he plays good acoustic guitar.

[@KimberlyCeezU]

And I was spinning that 45 over and over!

[@elianemend5497]

Em 1976, eu com 17 anos e meu namorado com 19 anos. Essa música marcou nosso namoro. Amo!!!!

A true legend. Beautiful voice and so handsome, even at 76! Come out of retirement, Peter....please!

[@joegoldberg8833]

His voice never gets old. My dad's favorite singer..

[@williamkiesow3980]

Don Henley was once called " golden throat ". Peter gets my vote anyday !!!

[@miyubail]

Peter still got it!!! No one can replace him, ever

[@shjakes]

For all those who lost their mothers in late 1976, this timeless song has very special meaning. Big Blessings to Peter Cetera...may he Live Long & Prosper in Peace, Joy, Abundant Health & Mighty Love.🥰

Goosebumps... just goosebumps. I was 12 or 13 at the time. Now I am 52 and it is still the same feeling.

[@junneltemplanza]

I feel envy and glad for those audiences who get to witness the phenomenal Peter Cetera of Chicago performing their timeless, masterpiece "IF YOU LEAVE ME NOW" in front of them.

[@hunnyb923]

He actually came to Midland TX not too long ago and I had the good fortune to see him live! One of the hands down best singers I’ve ever had the privilege of seeing perform live! He’s still just amazing!

[@dsnoey]

One of the most beautiful and poignant songs I've ever heard.

[@RobertoPetrúcio-g5e]

An eternal song.

[@toyman77]

Peter Cetera is one of the greatest vocalist ever! This is a very beautiful love song.

[@kindface]

The period 1975-1979 ushered in an explosion of amazing pop melodies. This one by Chicago is, quite simply, one of the most beautiful pop melodies ever written, emblematic of the period. And this arrangement is sublime.

[@dcschwanke]

Cetera can still sing like he was with Chicago. He has aged well, like fine wine.

[@gadzorninblatz]

No way. He was fantastic in his Chicago years. Now he sounds like some bad lounge singer.

Worldwide NUMBER ONE single in 1976, first time for Chicago, written by bass guitar player Peter Cetera who was part of the group. I actually like this performance better than the original recording.

[@rr7firefly]
