Had the great fortune of seeing Luther perform at Wembley, his vocal ability soared in all its majesty performing live without the restrictions of a studio recording. One of the greatest vocalists of his time and a privilege to witness his ability to make his performance appear effortless. His passing was a major loss to the music world. RIP Luther Vandross.❤

Me too! The man was so brilliant at doing cover versions of other people`s Songs. This was originally done by Dusty Springfield and it was one of many songs from The Burt Bacharach/Hal David Catalogue. He also got his start in a Gospel Choir who were on the First Episode of Sesame Street in 1969 and he also made his bones singing Backup for David Bowie on Fame, not the Irene Cara Song. He also made folks First Dance as Man & Wife so romantic with Here and Now and he bought alot of "Babies" into the world.

That echo effect in the beginning of the song was courtesy of his soundman. It was just on only at the beginning. He had his own sound crew and everything had to be perfect or he'll get on your case! Still, he was one of the greatest male vocalists of our generation.

Dionne Warwick recorded it in 1964 and enjoyed modest success with it. Luther comes along 17 years later and sings it his way and it flies off the charts. 54 was way too young to be taken from us ❤💜❤
