THESE GUYS ARE SMOOTH!!! GQ - I DO LOVE YOU (REACTION)

[@Carlos559Caps]

Being Latino, i was raise on Oldies of all sorts. Took me years to realize it but man we're our parents right when they said "they dont make music like they used to".

[@realcoolbreeze]

Billy Stewart did the original. Hard to top Billy s version. It s a masterpiece and has stood the test of time. It s actually incredibly powerful and emotional.

[@GandlafTheWhite]

This one killed Billy!!!! Facts

I like Billy Stewart's version. However, GQ topped it, IMHO. They took this song to another level. 💛

Nahh...this one is better.

[@bakercarl8518]

These guys did a excellent cover on this one.

They really did 👍

[@patrickmurchison9145]

As has been mentioned, this was originally done by Billy Stewart. I have GQ's Greatest Hits CD!!! GQ also did a remake of Billy' Stewart's song "Sitting in the Park".....I'm quite confident you'll like both Billy and GQ's versions!!!

I was 12 hearing Billy Love him!! A lil white girl my friends never heard of him I got them to listen and they found out they love him too!!!!!❤❤❤

[@miltonslocum8957]

GQ did a great job on covering this classic song. As others have mentioned, you need to react to the original by the late great Billy Stewart. His singing style was very unique. This song came out in 65. There's two other songs by him you'll enjoy called Summertime and Sitting in the Park. You should really check him out!

I really like this group remaking “ I Do Love You “ from so many year’s ago, they sing it beautifully…WOW!👍👏👏👏

[@ZebraDazzle66]

My husband, who I met when I was 13 and he was 16, used to DJ all of my 8th grade school dance, neighborhood parties and had a finished basement with a DJ booth that his dad built for him. We would all be down there on Friday and Saturday nights slow dancing to this song. We also d rocked out to their other songs: Disco Nights (Rock Freak), Standing Ovation and Make My Dreams A Reality. GQ brings back the BEST MEMORIES!!! If you liked them, then you really should listen to Ray, Goodman and Brown. They have soooo many great songs: Special Lady Happy Anniversary Inside of You A Part of You Slipped Away The Way It Should Be Their harmonies and a cappella are so tight it will blow your mind!!!

The original by Billy Stewart kills this version. Also Billy's version of "Summertime" is an modern R&B classic.

Definitely. I was in high school in Kansas City when this version came out. Then I heard the Billy Stewart version and was floored. It's still a great version though.

@@geraldjohnson4013 100% correct, it's still a great version. They also did a good version of Billy Stewart's "Sitting In The Park". Again, Billy did it so much better. However, I do prefer GQ doing their original "Disco Nights", which is an all time classic.
