Here I am bringing in 2024 with Bobby Caldwell helping heal my heart. Thank You Bobby for Showing the world that one’s soul can transcend any barrier. You are loved, and you are missed 🙏
That's why the album cover is the first shot of the video. They didn't want people to know he was white. When he toured for the album people were like "WHAT?!"
I was lucky enough to see Bobby perform twice. I met him, chatted a while, had pics taken. Bobby was gracious and sweet. This song is a classic. Forever.
The rhodes keys, the trumpets, the synthesizer, his voice, even the drums..the bass... the only way this song could've missed, was if nobody ever heard it.
Listening to this song growing up as a child I could’ve sworn this was a black man 😂 It was in rotation with all the other black music that our parents played, so I was for sure this was just another black man. That’s crazy
Always thought he was, A Blk R & B Singer. He did that, from way back in the'80's. Remember My Mom playing this, at the Friday Nite, Adults Get to gether's. That's Real. 🕺🕺🕺
I'm 39 years old and always knew he was white as a kid. People act like we didn't have TVs back then. 🤦🏾♀️ Back then, we didn’t care about color. So it wasn't a big deal to us. 🤷🏽♀️ Just another great music artist ❤
Actually its for the album cover. Historically black artists in the 50s and early 60s had vague covers without their faces so companies could sell their products in white areas. Bobby's album was just the silouhette to sell in black communities because he sounded black but was white. A good example is Nat King Cole, he sings like a white guy (of the time), but is black.
@@dgtldead Yep, being on a majority black music label it was the suits who decided to market the album that way. I believe the name of the album (originally self-titled) was also changed to 'What You Won't Do For Love' after this song was a hit.

The way he sit in the dark for the first 20 seconds , just letting everyone contemplate who he is... then BOOM, white man emerges with the biggest soul you ever seen a man of his stature ever have lmaoo. #legend .
A cat video led me here. Thanks Elie! What a revelation to finally see this man! I grew up with this song but never knew the singers name or face. I love CZcams.
I heard this song playing in a hometown buffet when I was young in the 80s and I have been obsessed with it ever since. The minute you could start downloading songs this was the first one I downloaded and I’m a die hard metal head.
The bassline is immortal. It’ll keep groovin long past the heat death of the universe. What a shame that he’s passed on now. I’ll probably revisit this track periodically for the rest of my life.
Proof that music is universal and can bring the world together. I never knew Bobby was black until a meme came out. Music has no race, just feeling. Salute Bobby… Salute 🫡
Because we saw him on soul train we knew his ethnicity or nationality. But because he has a great voice and a lot of black folks love good vocals, and a nice jazz beat in the background, he was all right with us!
Rest in Peace. Bobby was ahead of his time. He played guitar for Little Richard and wrote several songs for other musicians. Much respect brother. He's jamming out right now with Prince and Aretha ❤️
Seriously, who's ever idea was it to just jump out of the shadow like that is sheer genius! If it was Caldwell, he's beyond.🙌🏾 And he did every instrument!
My mom had his record it was played on Saturdays it was so loud I could hear it outside when I was swinging. I was 5 then listening ELO, The BeeGees , Disco 😂 George Benson, AL Green , Kc and the sunshine band and more. Good memories 😊😢
I’m a redhead with freckles. This song made feel good when I was 20 and still today. Sometimes I burst out singing it while doing my chores, especially gardening. Bless him.
Sweet baby black Jesus! The first white singer to make me feel like he understood true black smoothness. Damn, this man need an honorary doctorate from the brotherhood! Imagine if Bobby and Bill Withers would have sung together. Rest in love Bobby.

I am the same age as Mr. Caldwell was, have taken Levaquin before, but won't take it again. God rest his soul. He had one of a kind voice.

She's not that old then
The rhodes keys, the trumpets, the synthesizer, his voice, even the drums..the bass... the only way this song could've missed, was if nobody ever heard it.
The song got to #9 on the Billboard Hot 100; #6 on the Billboard R&B; #10 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary., so it did well.
This one of those jams, you stay in the car to finish listening too, even if your ice cream is melting in the back seat.

Wonderful TRIBUTE.
I read where he had been in decline after having a severe reaction to a group of antibiotics (fluoroquinolones), Levaquin, Cipro and Avelox, used to treat bacterial infections. The FDA continues to approve the use of these antibiotics, despite the dangers of tendon rupture and damage to the nervous system, stating the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. I am the same age as Mr. Caldwell was, have taken Levaquin before, but won't take it again. God rest his soul. He had one of a kind voice.
One of the best songs ever made. RIP Bobby Caldwell
