randy crawford-everything must change

i love this song!

[@soniadaley3611]

My dearest friend Andrea Dayes died suddenly at work. She gave me SO much support when my daughter passed away 2 years earlier. Unbeknown to me and her friends she had made preparations for her funeral, one of which was that I sing this song the way Randy Crawford sang it. Wow what an honour. I sang it through tears, but with a determination that i live up to the faith Andrea had in me RIP my dearest friend. Miss you dearly

[@peter212]

Randy and Oleta Adams KNOW how to sing this song. Gets better every time I hear it.

[@missjf21ify]

Listened to several versions and no one rocks it like Randy Crawford, amazing rendition, love this song.

[@vaakachick4421]

I was in college when I heard this and simply cried. Her voice was so spot on for this song.

[@paytonfit]

There are times when a song, the lyrics, the music, the musicians and the singer come together in a collaboration that is truly magical. This is one of those times. Randy Crawford really shines. Thanks to everyone involved in this magical moment, and thank you yak9900 for posting it.

One of the best versions of this song. It needs restraint and range and Randy did it proud.

[@LuizPagan]

This song is just pure unadulterated TRUTH! You hear me?

[@nomerusta]

Everything must change Nothing stays the same Everyone will change No one stays the same The young become the old Mysteries do unfold For that's the way of time Nothing and no one goes unchanged There are not many things in life You can be sure of... Except, rain comes from the clouds Sun light up the sky Hummingbirds do fly Winter turns to spring The wounded heart will heal But never much to soon But everything must change The young become the old Mysteries do unfold But that's the way that time Nothing & no one goes unchanged There are not many things in life You can be sure of... Except, rain comes from the clouds Sun lights up the sky Hummingbirds do fly Rain comes from the clouds Sun lights up the sky Hummingbirds do fly Rain comes from the clouds Sun lights up the sky Hummingbirds do fly Rain comes from the clouds Sun lights up the sky Music makes me cry

[@tyroneaugustine8252]

nomerusta some things never change

[@maillister111]

Rain comes from the clouds Sun lights up the sky Hummingbirds do fly

[@igorlorger2584]

i love this voice too

[@AvlDao]

Thats interesting to read because I was impressed as a kid when I heard the melancholy original on Quincy's 1974 LP, Body Heat, and many years later when I bought Randy's soulful LP version. A few months ago, I replayed Q's old CD and images of a funeral and celebration of life and life's passing flooded my mind, tho it was of no one in particular. The version by the songwriter Ighner on Q's Body Heat is just simply different,different era and recording technology Very evocative as is Randy's.

[@firefighterps2]

The song was written by Bernard Igner. He is featured on Quincys arrangement. Body Heat 1974.

[@glen7695]

Paytonfit's comments are spot on. This is work of art that came together through compelling collaboration.

[@MizzBonna]

I adore u miss Randy great voice

[@duskynini]

Yeah it is, Everything must change...life still goes on!

[@LuizPagan]

The original version is by Billy Paul sometime in the 70's I think. This is THE version of this song. Great lyrics and superb performance! The Standard!

[@firefighterps2]

The original was by Bernard Igner. You can hear him sing a later version on a Quincy Jones arrangement.

[@meghan5631]

so so so true.everything changes.beautiful song.

[@edwinfujimacabenta3663]

We must change Love this song 🎶

[@sciocezze68]

One of the greatest Songs ever..Randy did a brilliant Job No doubt! But Rachel ferrell and George Benson's Performance is unbeatable

[@Northumbergull]

Saw her at the Hammersmith Apollo in the early 80s 😁❤👍

[@abbahkeys8782]

[@user-bw1vo6iq4j]

cant find any video of Randy with this song ... Anyone do? What a voise, what a the meaning of the verses!!! she's and Shirley Veronica Bassey is my favorite performers of anytime

[@caseareanjohnson9258]

Beautiful ❤️

[@pargaluvva]

I love the words, so true.

[@Pettra88]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! I'm doing this song for an audition at Tangier's today at 3:15p....AAAAAGGGHHHH!!!!

[@cheapsuitblues]

I believe the song was on an album called Body Heat. It's also on the Quincy Jones "Ultimate Collection CD". I don't own either but I googled the info.

[@cheapsuitblues]

Really nice live version. I first heard this song covered by George Benson and mistakenly assumed he wrote it. I just found out it was covered earlier by Quincy Jones (although Benard Ighner wrote the tune I don't think I've heard his version). Googled Mr. Ighner and found out some really interesting stuff.

[@ATOM09]

"An unforgetable poem of life" I like that, daalrotiforamer. Well said, sir.

[@bigassweapon]

beautiful...just beautiful, although i'm partial to George Benson putting his magic to this piece. Randy is great....

[@gloriabobadillacarvajal8542]

una cantante excepcional

[@lynnadams7017]

Yes Heidi this song is great but Randy Crawford's voice makes it incredible

[@onirazon]

I also love James Ingram's version.

like the buddha said 2500 years ago,Everything will only happens,excist and decay even this world and universe.Nothing really belong to anybody.

[@ferssio]

After you listen to Randy please listen to Dave Sanborn's version of this tune""" , I love them 2.

[@cheapsuitblues]

After more digging I found out that Mr. Ighner is the vocalist on the Quincy Jones recording. Anybody have that recording to share?

[@anacardoso8255]

Gosto da voz !

[@teresawingo109]

Healing just took place.

[@cheapsuitblues]

Google "Benard Ighner" or look under Quincy Jones. Mr. Ighner wrote the tune and performed it with Quincy Jones. I think I actually like George Benson's version the best (also from the 70's).

[@dubz6362]

Very special black diamond 💎💎 rainbow sparkle. LIK wood

[@nadineamsterdam]

I think that is more or less the same what I was trying to say ;-) ????

[@CC927]

If anybody can find & post the Randy Crawford song This Night was Made for One Thing Only from the Stakeout movie soundtrack,I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
