"Let me live or call me home, I''m tired of suffering." DAMN
You've made it home now Charles. Thank you for sharing your love & soul through your inspiring music.
I'll be crying a lot today :-(
Amen. I am heartbroken at the loss of this great soul. I thank God he was able to share his heart with us.
As time passes, I hope this man gets the praise and recognition he deserves.
Still heartbroken.
This world did not deserve this man.
this man did not deserve the painful side of this world
@alterdestiny u sure nobody deserves pain?
@@Brsrk9 Amen to that but I have to hold out faith he is in gods arms now
damn right it didnt
Fuck the world
I hate the fact that I havent discovered him earlier
Meee tooo
Same
Nobody did that's the beauty of charles.. He wasn't discovered until late in his life & by then he had a story... I don't care when i discovered him, i'm just glad i did.. the fact that 3 years after you wrote this im responding says everything about Charles & how loved he was.. RIP Charles..
me too
Be glad that you did though because many people didn’t have the opportunity that you have to listen to his emotion and the experience of his life.
thanks for your life, message and work, Charles.
I saw this man when I was 12 or 11? I'm not to sure. My dad loves loves R&B and soul... immigrant Mexican dad. He felt a connection with him because my dad always said he was a hard working man. Thank you Charles... your a good man. I'm glad god gave me the chance to know about your music since a very young age. 😔💕
Will you marry me
Why is it I only learn about this man after he passes away? Listening to his music, relates to me so much. God got a great man!
I know, right !!??....same here ! I had no idea that some one of the best soul singers ever was still that young and active out there. Real and honest beyond comparison.
Chris Johnson you was definitely missing out. He's by far he was one of the best artists there was. His songs actually had a meaning to them.
Chris Johnson Me 2 and I have recording artists in my family 👪
Man same here....I just found this and hes already gone. All we can do know is cherish his memory and pass on his wisdom to the next person
Just discovered him thru this series Suits
The man just couldn’t catch break. You can see how much the world scarred him, but he still had his heart. May he RIP
One of my regrets in this life is that I never got to see you Mr. Bradley. You and your music have done so much for me and I didn't even get a chance to thank you. Rest easy now, this cruel world can no longer hurt you.
RIP great man.
Amina Hajdar when did he pass?
SUPREME eXoH 9/29/17😢
Sorry I just read your message... Sept 23rd 2017
Just discovered this fantastic talent to learn he has passed away. Rest in peace, you left a beautiful legacy.
I saw Charles perform live shortly before his death. Never heard of him or his music before that day. His concert truly changed my life. His voice, the way he carried himself, and all the love he gave to his music and a total group of strangers truly touched my heart. I've never heard a musician with so much passion in their voice before. After knowing his struggles and his story, I have nothing but an even deeper respect for him as a man.
Love this
My heart truly weeps at his passing. Thank you sir for your humanity. The world has lost a great soul.
He's lucky he avoided drugs while homeless. So rare.
That was the smartest decision he ever did. Drugs would destroy him.
I'm going to show how ignorant I've been now but never have I found an artist by chance, absolutely loved every piece of music I hear from them, then found out that they had already passed, then been so interested to look into their life, checked out interviews and been so moved and saddened by someone I only just discovered.
I regret that I didn't find him sooner, but what a talent.
David Scott this is me right now. just discovered the man. I didn't think I'd spend the morning gutted and teary-eyed listening to soul music.
I agree.
Same here, what a talent what a soul.
This is me right now...
Yes every piece
I really hope the next life is kinder to this man... I'm just glad he had a chance to record his music and get his message across. Rest in Peace sir
Charles lived his music. It seems like poverty, pain, losses, and sadness made him want to connect deeply with his music, audience and people in general. I feel joy and connection to human spirit, not money, made this man shine brighter in life and his music made him who he became.
You seem like a very good person, Charles. I'd be your friend.
Still saddened by his loss..ahhh man hearing the challenges thrown his way in life ..and then to make it at 62 when his talent should have been honored 40 years ago, blows my mind at least he made it tho.
We love you. Rest in peace, Dear Charles. The Eagle of Soul. 1948-2017
I wish this dude was able to read this comments section
you's a good dude
Actual REAL feelings & emotions behind every word..
Actual REAL life stories & experiences behind every sentence..
In every song..
It does not get any more REALER or RARER than master Charles Edward Bradley.
You can hear all that 60 years of suffering in his voice. Damn powerful
Today is a sad day 💔
RIP CHARLES....... IT CAME LATE TO YOU, YOU LEFT US SOME FINE MUSIC.
Truly inspiring, your story shows it's never too late to become who you suppose to be. Best regards sir!
RIP Charles... @4:47, I'm glad you found your peace
Rest in peace Charles Bradley. Your soul has touched a lot of people. Let your memory live on through your music.
Wow this is crazy. I'm sobbing, I love this guy's music, loved him for years but had NO idea the hell he'd been through before his music career. this is insanely sad. I really hope they make a movie about him, he deserves way more recognition. Charles Bradley is the closest thing to an actual Angel the world has ever known
Sometimes we don't realize someone as great as Charles exist until way down the road but at least their legacy lives on thru their music. What a sad story, his life was but that inspired him to put his heart n soul in his music for us to feel/enjoy. The power of music...
Such a humble man with an amazing voice.
Rest easy Charles. You are free and at peace. You are in God's hands. Thank you for your music. I'm crying right now !!!
Man what a beautiful voice......I'm so glad he never gave up
precious soul precious being.... rip
& thanks for your love
RIP great man. He may never have found true love, but the world has found it in him. Love from Norway.
Some people words will makes you to look into life... to question What else you need..! You are inspiring Charles Bradley....
I wish every man could do this. If they could, the world would change overnight. They began to in the 1960-70's and it was a beautiful thing to see - something I will never forget and still cry when I remember those men back then.
Rest in peace, kind soul. We love you.
I envy this man...I wish I could learn to appreciate life like he does. Charles was an amazing role model.
Oh Charles, your eyes.. What a beautiful soul you are..
What a sad, sad life....hopefully he is at peace now. Thanks for sharing your talent with a world that was so unkind to you.
The man is pain personified and he gifted the world with his music instead of passing that pain along.
my heart is swollen on this day. Eternal rest my friend.
The moment I heard that He passed to Heaven......I was so joyfull for him.
Because you know only a man who can sing like that......suffered a lot in life.
I felt his heartache when I heard that his mom passed to Heaven........... "Changes" I thought I feel you man, I really do feel you.
So I'm so glad that you made it home.......Heaven. Blessed Soul.
Thank you so so much for sharing this video. Charles Bradley is a hero and role model to anyone with soul!
I recently knew about this man, and I had no idea he passed away. So sad news.Big respect.
Bruh im fucking crying. He's been through such immeasurable tragedy. I'm going through a particularly awful and turmoiled period in my life, and at 22 I ask, why is it so hard. It's so powerful, the connection this man brings.
Rest in peace, big brother!!! Thank you so much for being YOU!!!! May the angels guide you into heaven!!!
You're a beautiful soul. I'm so sorry you couldn't find the other half of it. Rest in peace with God. I'm pretty sure that's where you are right now. 💗
A man too good for this world..I'm sorry your journey wasn't so great.
That’s what made him great. Don’t feel sad. He was molded by struggle like most soul or jazz musicians and singers. growing up happy wouldn’t have produced such talent and diversity.
Sometimes when I listen to CB, I picture a time traveler from 1971 coming to the future and instead of seeing the mess we keep getting into and the shit stain we call a culture, he first hears Bradley's music and thinks "oh yeah, still all good, right on schedule". I feel like an Otis Redding type titan made it quietly through the 60s to now, absorbing 50 years more ammo for the blues and then unleashed it in his last years. What a sweet thought. Great music.
Rest well, Charles. You're finally home and thanks for the music.
Every single time I've heard this man sing, I have heard his pain and his hard life in his vocals. It was almost like hard things that most of us have not and will never experience in life, he experienced it 4 us and made us feel it.
Discovered CB on October 23, 2020. His honesty, suffering and soulfulness has changed me.
God bless you CHARLES!!!!! REST IN PEACE BOSS. there was something really really special about him. The last soul legend. He seemed like such a cool , laid back Genuine guy . I went through some stuff awhile back and I was able to really relate to his first album his second and third one is great too. Oh Well it was his time and maybe he was just too good for this world. Seems like his fame didn't change him but actually made him more humble.VICTIM OF LOVE BABY!!!
I feel your pain...thank you for being strong & sharing your beauty and vulnerability. 😍
crazy, this guy is perfection from any angle. It's shit how people for their lives and at times by dint of fate must depend on other people....he deserved more.
Charles we all love you than you’ll ever know. Thank you!
Man! This brother was sad. Really made you feel his pain. The Menahan Street Band captures that old soul sound that fits Chrales perfectly. R.I.P soul brother
He was such a peaceful man, he seen and went through so much. I love his music, his soul speaks so loudly of the heartache and pain. People could learn so much and join in unity to make a better world. So sad he couldn't have lived in a better world. Charles, the world did not deserve you ❤️
Honestly,I don't know you guys but i couldn't stop crying...thanks Charles for your voice and music!!!
This man lives forever in the medium of youtube for people like me to only learn TODAY of his talent and beauty.... RIP a total legend! ... if you haven't heard his cover of 'changes' by black sabbath live...then thank me later...go listen NOW.. be ready to be moved
Poor guy, I really hope he's at peace. As sad as his death was, all we can hope is that, that he's truly resting in peace.
Charles was a beautiful human being inside and out. Rarely saw someone gave so damn much on stage. Literal sweat and tears throughout his shows.
What a kind and humble person he was.. so sad to hear that he passed away. He didn‘t deserve that sad and short life..i hope he‘s doing better now and that he has found peace and love in the place where he is now
One of the greatest. Thank You Charles. Your voice has always hit me in the moment I needed it. RIP Sir. God Bless.
RIP Charles Bradley. What a great musician and a great man.
A young soul in an old body.
Naw. An old old soul in a human body.
nah player, a old Traveling Relentless soul in a Carcass
Never had an artist touch my heart and soul, the way this man has.... A gift from God to this earth. RIP
Seems like a gem of a man to me. Reminds me of how the Jackson brothers talk. He saw the world how I am right now and it’s frightening what’s happening and what’s coming. Ice caps are melting.
I didn't know you passed brother but I think you have gone on to glory and home like others have said. You are a true artist and I love your style, from crafting your own stage garments to pouring your soul into the microphone. If there was an affliction called "soul" or "the blues" id have to quote Usher and say "your got it bad!" Your will be missed.
You never know what someone has been through ...we love you charles a pure soul
Saw him in 2014 at a festival show where he and his band were held up almost 2 hours at the US border. People still waited for him, and he was by far the best act I saw all day. By the time he finished, people were begging for more but they had to shut it down due to noise bylaws. RIP Charles Bradley
My heart hurts. Rest In Paradise
Thank you for everything you did for us!!!!
Soulful voice that hasn't been heard in ages the way he put it down, R.I.P.
A great man....life is so difficult.....Bless You Charles!
RIP Chalres, you are home now with the Most High.................sing to the Angles
Thank you sir and may you rest in peace.
RIP Brother, I only discovered your music 3 days after you passed. Thank you for sharing your soul with us all, you're one of the greats.
Hit it me right in the feels. This man is Soul Music.
God Bless Charles. You had a tough life and have a good soul. People were mean to you and you kept your head up. You songs make me cry. One day on the other side I will meet you and Thank you for your great music. Rest easy brother! !! No more pain
Jah Bless my brother. You made the world a better place. RIP
Man the heartaches this man went through are enough to break most men. I just recently discovered Charles and wow. That's all I have to say, is wow! This man has a voice that can communicate his sadness and pains. Not too many people can do that. So sad.
I know he is gone from this world, But he needs to be recognized. I’m surprised he didn’t win any Grammy awards.
This is golden! Thank you for uploading this.
I had the pleasure of seeing this Mr live what a joy, life is made of moments and this one is certainly one of the happiest of my life
Thank you for the music. Rest in peace
Such a great, RIP Maestro!
long live the Fear of Needles
I`m surprised at how many people are NOT scared of needles....No way would i ever stick a needle in my are for an opiate. Never, and i was hooked on pain killers for a decade.
It's just a needle
Amen I hate needles it's not painful I just have the feeling of it when they take it out and your skin pulls with it uuugh.. (both my parents use drugs)
Truth!
Jimmy Neutron it’s just aids
I hope you are in a better place and THANK YOU for your music, makes me get thru some of my bad days!
rest easy, once a human allowing us to feel soul, now a soul allowing us to feel alive. goodbye my hero
rest in peace, sir.
Mr Bradley I wish I had the chance to shake your hand and to tell you thank you for the amazing music.
So sad :'( .. you are the best. Thank you for your music. It touches your heart so deeply. Rest In Peace...
A truly amazing man, as a human being and a singer. I will always play your records and let people here your passion and soul. Wish I could of seen you live, one of the best ✊🏼
Its nice to finally see a good video with no dislikes. RIP Brother Man.
Thanks for sharing such style & sound. Wish you the best on your next adventure. 🙌🌎🔥
Love this guy , Thank you Mr Bradley for sharing so much with us RIP
His voice is incredible, i was devastated to find our recently that he past away last year. His soul, pain and triumph will continue to live on through his incredible music.
God bless you, Charles. Wishing you eternal peace. Thank you for what you shared with us.
