Amen! I was 11 when I started loving this man! He is my history! I've seen him twice! I'm 62 now! Hope to get to see him again! He's my Good Times! I love you Al Green! I'm here August 2021
This song hits me hard. I’m 22 years old and I met the woman of my dreams. But at the time I was with her I wasn’t in the best place spiritually and I felt like she needed guidance with her faith by I wasn’t there yet. Eventually I decided to leave because I needed to get right with God again and I only left because I needed to put God first in my life. Well since I’ve been single I’ve been working on myself and been trying to strengthen my faith. I really love this girl and if I ever get the opportunity to talk to her again this will be the song I’ll play for her. I just want to put God first in all of my relationships. I might want her but I NEED God in my life.
I fully understand your reasoning for your choice . I am a 51 year old widow of nearly 9 yrs and my husband and I both fully understood that our love for God must be fully cemented and our relationship with him had to be first or we wouldn't have had our love , because God is (LOVE) ! God blessed me with 15 beautifully blessed years with my soulmate and I know it wouldn't have been possible without our love for God . Keep God first and I know he will supply your true love on this earth , if he hasn't already ! I wish you the best in life and love be it your past love or new love , just continue to keep God first and everything will be alright 🙏🏾 ! My love and faith in God along with the anointed voice of the incomparable Rev. Al Green got me through some of my hardest , darkest and lowest times in my life , ALTHOUGH God needed no assistance Al was just another way of God letting me know I got you my child and I love you and I'm so grateful 🙏🏾 ! I'm sorry for my rambling on and on , but every chance I get to converse with someone who loves the Lord I have to give my testimony on how I know that putting my love for God first led me to the love of my life ! God bless you and stay safe 🙏🏾 !
@@lindathomas6707 one thing I can say bout your comment from one year ago is thankyou my darlin! Yeah that Al Green is in my heart and my soul. I love Him and from all the way in Little Rock Arkansas I say Linda Thomas thankyou for telling love like it is💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
@@juliemcalister2557 Thank you Sweetie 🙏🏾 and may God continue to bless you and your family and Al Green keeps on giving us that beautiful music from that wonderfully BLESSED voice 💚💚💚🙏🏾 💚💚💚 !
🙋🏾♀️🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾As a 40 year old Christian woman this minister to my spirit 🥹👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾I heard this song 15 years ago but to actually watch him perform it live is another level BLESSING! I love you Jesus!!!! You’re my everything
“Belle” is such a beautiful song. Has the connotation of putting God first in his life. His love abound (go higher) in JESUS. Amen 🙏Jesus is his bright and morning 🌟 star!
Ok Rev. Al Green recorded some songs I wrote for him when I was in Memphis Tn with him in Full Gospel Tabanacle Church where I song with him in his choir as he made me his protege
This is one of them songs that I have rode deep long state to state drives. Jammin' Al Green in the late night hours, on the road. My God!!! THIS ONE RIGHT HERE!!! have me hollerin' and shoutin' in the car!!! Oh, Yeah!!!
That's how The Holy Ghost will have you acting when you really truly love Jesus Christ and appreciate Him for who He IS. You forget everything else because it doesn't matter. Praise God in the highest. 😇 🙌
@@PonziZombieKillerponzi and zombie associated in a pseudo is good. But let's discuss only music please. Particularly after this imitation of black african accent
I saw/heard this song today april 24 for the first time. It never shows on Al Green searches. I read the comments and do not get what most write. That it is a praise.
I EXPERIENCED AL GREEN in concert in the 70's! Drove me wild! I've seen EARTH, WIND, & FIRE, THE COMMADORS, Numerous other big name groups. But Al Green had me running up to the stage, he did a church step while he sang his heart out! Like being touched by the Holy Ghost in Church! Amazing Preformer!
Happy 75th Birthday Al Green! This performance got real right at the 4:12 mark. Whenever Al starts jumping or clapping super fast in a circle, you know he’s about to go into orbit and we get an amazing performance.
When a man puts God 1st, he can sho nuff love his wife properly ! I love when he said "My Joy is not a Toy", and at the beginning when he hushed the band and just went to chuuuuch!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾💞💞👏🏾👏🏾 Al u betta!!💃🏾💃🏾
Dar M .,. Girl you know I'm here 😊 ! Al's singing even touches his spirit he can't help but jump and shout , I must admit he touches more than my spirit 😅🤭 ! I just love me some Al Green 😍 !
Stunning! absolutely beautiful experience. I could feel the love right there and it was genuine too, bless this man, and thank you for sharing this video!.
This has to be my favorite of Al Green songs. What always strikes me though is how 'well-behaved' audiences from back in the day were. No standing...no jostling...they just sit in their seats... But...I can't imagine how they remained so relatively calm. When I hear this live performance...when I see it... when I feel the passion...the energy...I can't help but throw my hands in the air. Al is totally gone ta chuch on this hear song.
Here In 2022' and there's still such a powerful essence to this performance and existence. Al Greene was sharing his Gift and certainly In The Spirit He was singing of a Higher Power of Love - GOD and grateful to share the experience on a earthly physical level but he was expressing his Spiritual Experience... GOD Is!!
YES FINALLY.. .This is why Al Green Imho is my favorite.. His voice ROARS like a *MARSHALL STACK*...Sincerely. Thank You*...Now if we can get the Love n Happiness, from this same show...It would be shor.....nuff wonderful
I am back again and I'm thinking about the nights of rolling in the dark.From state to state listening to the song over and over and over again , as well as jesus is his waiting and full of fire. Thinking about having to make them hard choices between what you want in the flesh versus for god We're gonna watch from you and your choice
This is a Holy Ghost R&B song, Al had the spirit of the Lord in him, God bless you Rev. Green, I love you and your beautiful spirit of song🙏 Linda in Philly 2022, still sounding GOOD!
I used to play it a lot the day it came out...Its 12/ 14/ 23 A week and few days before Christmas and I'm backing to playing the original press of this song....Have it on wax playing the album on my 1200 Turntable Keeping it on repeat ! Love, love, love the music and vocals arrangement of this song..
I was 11 when I started loving me some Al Green! I'm 62 now! Al Green is the Tapestry of my life, and the life of a lifelong friend! I can chronical my life by his music! I've seen him twice! Once with Buddy Guy,and BB King what a treat that was! I LOVE YOU AL GREEN!! ❤🌹 I hope to see him in concert again, but if not, thank you for this Awesome video ! Loving soul music in August 2021! 🤗 Amen!! Al Green God Bless You!
Can't fine the words to Express myself, I hope you can fell the moment, he pours his heart out and gives himself his all to Express his feelings and his love for God. Al Green has been a great man of God since the beginning of his career, time has told it well. Amen.
Al Green,conheci o seu talentoso jeito de manifestação divina através da música em 1973e sempre tive o desejo de te-lo aqui no Brasil e apreciar de perto o seu magnífico trabalho ;fica aí a expressão minha em nome do povo brasileiro-parabens!
Some might think Al was mixing God in RB or playing with God. What was happening was God was dealing with him. He finally gave up and surrendered to HIM.

Reverend Al letting it all hangout, feeling good this evening
Spectacular, he doesn't even need an orchestra. When I think of the rubbish that modern "artists" produce, I feel like crying....
This performance is supremely dynamic and mesmerizing.
@Domo Jones Is that the only thing you can say. after a spellbinding performance like this?

Yes Lawd!
Straight to Hall of Fame, Al Green (but you should already be there)
He was inducted in 1995. Unless you mean Baseball....
Just insanely great. He is just ad-libbing and it’s just amazing!
This show how God deals with us in our unperfect state. Thank God for His LOVE, GRACE and MERCY!
I wish I was there...Love the rev
