      The tragic case of Charles Bradley. Just after he started blowing up, he passed away. If anyone deserved recognition after a sad life, he is up there, along with Van Gogh.

    I just like how you can just tell Charles's life has been so hard. Some people wear it on their sleeves. Some have the thousand yard stare. Mr. Bradley sings it like an angel.

    @jackofalltrades156, the crowd was definitely into his performance. It's just hard to tell because we didn't film their reactions and the audience mic isn't turned up. But it was definitely a full and adoring crowd. He blew everyone away!

    "Heartaches And Pain"
    There a time in my life
    When it ran so cold
    Can't find a friend
    Anywhere at all
    So my brother said to me
    "Charles, you gotta stand tall
    Because life is full of sorrow
    Heartaches and pain
    Again and again"
    I woke up this morning
    My mama, she was cryin'
    So I looked out my window
    Police lights was flashing
    People was screaming
    So I ran down to the street
    A friend grabbed my shoulder
    And he said these words to me
    "Life is full of sorrow
    So I have to tell you this
    Your brother is gone"
    Heartaches and pain
    Heartaches, heartaches and pain
    Ooh, oh
    Ooh, oh na na
    Heartaches and pain, oh
    Heartaches and pain, no no no
    Heartaches and pain
    Heartaches and pain

    Knowing that his brother was really killed, it just rips me up when he sings "your brother is gone!" then lets it rip.

    He amazes me every time I watch him. Its almost like hes losing his brother all over again every time he performs this track. Its seems he's revisiting that horrible memory and it really comes through. Theres been alot of great people/bands that have come along in music through the years but I feel he is most definitely one of the most authentic things to happen to music since janis joplin. I also think people that appreciate his sound definitely understand the true definition of "good music"

    Saw Charles twice in the UK. Brilliant performer. Second time we saw him we were on the guest list. The only thing that bothers me about this performance is that one one of the horn players was out of tune, I think it was the Trumpet player (apologies if I am wrong) different line up to the band I saw in the UK. Their performance was impeccable. RIP Charles x

    @introvertedstoner i saw him in fort greene park and it was one of the best shows of my life. it is a little park on hill in brooklyn and while he was playing storm clouds started gathering behind him. slow sad music and slow growing clouds. they let out a huge storm right at the encore and no one left.
    i told a friend to go see him in vancouver and she broke down and started crying through the whole show i heard. i guess the point is when he plays it feels like a good storm.
