    Love you guys. I dont think you realize what an impact you are having on this world. Your willing to be open to all kinds of music warms my heart. Keep it up. You are amazing young men. I am a 55 year old woman and grew up listening to most of the music that is new to you. Listening it with you is like the first time for me too. Music brings people together. Take care and keep reacting.

XD I felt like a scared toddler seeing their dad's shaved face for the first time when I found out he's been white this whole time. XD

      Don't know if this is true. I heard that when his album came out, the record company decided not to put his face on the cover because they knew they had a cross over hit. They were apparently afraid that his face would stop the African American market from picking it up. Lots of assumptions made back in the day. Can't avoid the fact that it is a jam!

    Brethren! I am 60 years old. All of the music you are discovering is the soundtrack of my life. I absolutely adore you guys, and I just love love LOVE that you are hearing so much classic music and so many gifted artists for the first time. You are listening to music back when bands actually played instruments, writers wrote real lyrics with NO cursing, and singers had to know how to REALLY SING - NO AUTO TUNE -- and no studio tricks! The artists from the 1960s through to the entire 1980s, and maybe a little bit of the early 1990s - BEFORE hip-hop and hip-hop R&B took over everything. The thing about today's pop songs and most of the hip hop stuff is that it all sounds the same and the "singers" are all interchangeable. It is AWESOME that you two are expanding your musical horizons and REALLY LISTENING!

    And it's official. The Twins have spoken. This is one of the best R &B songs ever written and produced. I don't think they saw the video or knew the artist was white. Doesn't matter. A perfect song is a perfect song. Bobby Caldwell nailed it. The symphonic instruments with the groovy bass lines of the guitar, the vocalizations and phrasing. I love that these young men immediately recognized the genius of this song within the first 20 seconds. I don't feel bad anymore that young people have mostly inferior music. There is so much old stuff lurking in catalogs from previous generations that a discerning ear, regardless of age, is able experience wonderful music. All this crazy stuff in the last 20 years has not prevented young people from knowing a good thing when they hear it. That's awesome.

    Unfortunately I hate to be the bearer of bad news but, For those of you who haven't been informed, We lost "Bobby Caldwell" on 3-14-2023. He passed away in the arms of his Beloved Wife, after battling a severe illness! It was reported that he had some engagements, had what he thought was an oncoming cold (sniffles) and such, He called his Dr. and was prescribed some Antibiotics and some cough syrup. He suffered a very bad reaction and never fully recovered from what was called a name that I cannot Spell or Pronounce! Ladies & Gentlemen, If you Google Bobby Caldwell passing, you will see that his wife put out an interview a few months ago regarding the passing of her Husband. He's being missed! "Rest in Love" Bobby! ❤ "Rest in Love" ❤ I just wish that you two Young Brothers could have seen him perform in person! He was Phenomenal!
