Okay growing up in Philly I will first say "Chris can blow" not going to hate on that but sounding like Teddy P.....No not even close Teddy's baritone low was crispier and a lot clearer.
Been on a Christopher Williams revisiting off and on over the years, but the past 3 months, he has been in high rotation. Still fine after all these years. Sounding like Teddy P!
Just like riding a bike! "Like a child's heart at play, you know the things we used to say...when we were in looooove. We made promises, promises we don't keep."
They have Chris Brown, Trey Songz and Drake.......we had Christopher Williams, Al B. Sure and El Debarge. Our pretty boyz of da 80z would blow em out da water. lolz
The directors knew how to make a video on a shoestring budget back then. Then again, the music was great so they didn't need a million dollar budget with bells and whistles.
One ballerina, check. One beautiful woman to pose in two different colors of fabric, check. One fan to make the fabric blow dramatically, got it. Two faux back-up singers, check. Two outfit changes for Christopher, check. One fake gate for shadow purposes, done. Aight, let's shoot music video.
You prolly dont give a damn but does any of you know of a tool to log back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost my password. I would love any tips you can offer me!
This brother here easy on the eyes with an old school voice and talent that somehow for some reason didn't last longer than it should've. Christopher Williams is one of those talents that gets lost in the shuffle but talented beyond his years.
@@sammiedarden6941 trust he had help you have executives trying to market him to look and sound like someone else not allowing you to be yourself and or provide the right material tailored to your unique sound and ability then ultimately shelving me yeah I would be in my feelings to easy on the eye's everything a woman could want I'm sure they felt the challenge lol jealousy is everywhere in & out of the business umph umph umph
You don't realize how much you miss a song until you hear it years later. And remember every word. Christopher was definitely a powerhouse singer! 2020 is taking me back to the old days! ❤🙋🏾♀️
Mr Christopher Williams I would like to thank you & Al B Sure for my high school years in early 90’s . The girls would tell me that I resembled you and reminded them of Al B . Thanks brother 😉
One of the most iconic voices and underrated singers of our time, he would truly one of the greats. Never really blew up like he should have, his name should be mentioned along with those likes of Teddy Pendergrass, Luther Vandross, Gerald Levert,Dennis Edwards Johnny Gill etc, all the great male masculine voices of our time, men don't sing like this anymore
Just imagine how much someone would stand out if someone these days was soundin like this. No one these days sounds like this. Everyone wanna sing low. Singin deep brings one closer to the soul.
they had so much neg shit to say about this man I'm NOT accepting it! I love this man! his voice is AMAZING! There is no way he's broke and stealing headphones! look I love him he can come stay with me until he get back on his feet. FACTZZZZZZ. If your out there listening CHRISTOPHER WILLIAMS.....IM HERE! Nigga Come home to a woman that appreciate a great man.! smmfh
Dam, I remember listening to this song as if it was only yesterday. This song was so instrumental in my past. They don't make songs like this anymore that ignites your soul.
Damn I never realized how much a powerhouse Christopher Williams was. I was so damn caught up on the lightskinnededness in the 90s lol!! Definitely hear Teddy P influence in his voice!
I got to see him in a play years back called let a real man stand up. Omg that voice. I was a kid when this video came out. I'm glad to see and hear him sing
I met Chris in person last month at SOBs in NYC after his concert. He looked at me and said "Lightskin!!!!" and gavee me pound. Brother is cool as hell! Lightskin recognized lightskin!! Lmfao Good brother Chris. We can pass for brothers
I miss that manly deep voice in R'n'B today.
THAT VOICE
Yep, he had it going on!!!
Ikr now they’re auto tunin and tweaking🤮
I no the feeling!! Smh
Had a serious crush on him. Who didn’t !! Smh
Christopher Williams was da Teddy Pendergrass of OUR TIME‼️
Agreed
Facts....this dude can sing his ass off
Chris sounded like a Modern day Teddy Pendergrass
Anthony lasane yes he did sound like Teddy. He even did a remake of Come go with me
no more soo like marvin gaye teddy pendergrass and luther vandross rolled up into one
@@judewilliams3911 I can agree with that
Anthony lasane baritone
Okay growing up in Philly I will first say "Chris can blow" not going to hate on that but sounding like Teddy P.....No not even close Teddy's baritone low was crispier and a lot clearer.
We don't have music like this anymore.. So sad
I agree with you Peter; today music sucks.
Peeter Johnson yes shame shame shame
Sadly...
That's why I listen to my old stuff. This music.
Im an musician I can bring the real production sounds just like back in the day I don't sample other people music cause they got rights not to sample
back when I love to watch videos....Donnie Simpson days😘
T. Hamp yesss
Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey need to buy video soul and soul Train back and put them on own network
Good Ole video soul...
👍🏼 Yep!
Yesss
I remember when this used to come on video soul and soft notes on BET when the video shows used to be good
Right! !
yolandaadams
Yessss
I agree!
Me too
Christopher Williams was just fine
YES!!!
Stacie Jones yessssss. Finnnneee!!!!
Yes Lawd!
Been on a Christopher Williams revisiting off and on over the years, but the past 3 months, he has been in high rotation. Still fine after all these years. Sounding like Teddy P!
Yes, sounding like Teddy P.
He may not look like the Christopher Williams we are use to seeing, but he can still sing like no other...still has it after all these years
I didn’t notice until I got older but how he gonna swag Jack Tender Roni like that lol 😂
He still he got it
you got that right.
Yesssssssss Christopher in 2020 Promises Promises, I haven't heard this song in 30 years and still know every word.
Candace Bishop yessss!
Just like riding a bike! "Like a child's heart at play, you know the things we used to say...when we were in looooove. We made promises, promises we don't keep."
Can't forget good music!!!
Every word, me to can't remember bdays but remember this
Yes ma’am.
They have Chris Brown, Trey Songz and Drake.......we had Christopher Williams, Al B. Sure and El Debarge. Our pretty boyz of da 80z would blow em out da water. lolz
Exactly!! LOL
I agree 100%
40mbooh Facts 💯
QueenJoose LaMonica the pretty Boyz are done now us chocolate handsomen men hv taken over😉
QueenJoose LaMonica we had the real deal!
The directors knew how to make a video on a shoestring budget back then. Then again, the music was great so they didn't need a million dollar budget with bells and whistles.

Back in the day when the SINGER and his/her story was the focal point.
@@heyg0ld 😂😂
You prolly dont give a damn but does any of you know of a tool to log back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid lost my password. I would love any tips you can offer me!
@Bridger Cedric instablaster =)
I didn't realize this in the 90s when I'd watch this video, but this dude is his own backup singer LOL. That's when you know you're the shit.
wudaddy
I barely noticed the same thing also lol
😁
Lmao 😂
I just noticed that too...in the 90's I was too busy looking at his fine ass to notice background 😋 😏 😂
@@geegee0409 exactly 🤣
1989, his vocals remind me so much of Teddy P. 🎤🎹🎶
Andre Roberts your right l
Heather Walker you're*
Andre Roberts he was closer to Teddy P than Johnny Gill vocally
Sound like a Teddy P, Luther Vandross, and James Ingram hybrid
Rodney Davis They both gotta little Teddy P (grit, thickness, and power)and Luther(range, and vocal acrobatics) in them.
This brother here easy on the eyes with an old school voice and talent that somehow for some reason didn't last longer than it should've. Christopher Williams is one of those talents that gets lost in the shuffle but talented beyond his years.
He was too fine, other men saw him as a threat. Haha
Killed by Nino Brown and The Baldheads of the 90s
Sabotaged his own career per unsung.
@@ladylovesherlord there's some truth to that
@@sammiedarden6941 trust he had help you have executives trying to market him to look and sound like someone else not allowing you to be yourself and or provide the right material tailored to your unique sound and ability then ultimately shelving me yeah I would be in my feelings to easy on the eye's everything a woman could want I'm sure they felt the challenge lol jealousy is everywhere in & out of the business umph umph umph
He has a strong manly voice like Teddy.
Yass
This man!! Whew.. I wanted one just like this back in the day... handsome, vocals, height, build, just yummm

You don't realize how much you miss a song until you hear it years later. And remember every word. Christopher was definitely a powerhouse singer! 2020 is taking me back to the old days! ❤🙋🏾♀️

Him and Al B. Sure are cousins
@@beyoutifulskinbyrenamariel3893 ...No they're not!! Al B already confirmed it...they're not related

His Baritone voice was so smooth..

Luther Vandross is not a baritone like the other guys you mentioned
Lawd Have Mercy. He was so fine...and that voice 😍😍
I hear he is under the weather let's keep him in prayer for speedy recovery!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Just imagine how much someone would stand out if someone these days was soundin like this. No one these days sounds like this. Everyone wanna sing low. Singin deep brings one closer to the soul.
Truth
He always had Teddy P's voice. Like Jahiem and Johnny Gill. R.i.p Gerald Levert.
