    I love this man from the beginning. I grew in the early 60’s to now. And the first time I heard him sing. I knew he and the rest of his siblings were just that good. So glad he is headed in the right direction. Such a sweet and beautiful man.

    El Debarge is so humble. Amazing with such a troubled past life that he and his siblings had they were able to recover so well.

    I found absolutely fascinating to hear El talk about his songwriting his connection with his family musically. It's an amazing time. I will always be fascinated with Debarge. I love u El. You have the most amazing voice.

    Is it just me or El’s talking voice really has a semblance to Michael Jackson’s: tiny, soft, and sincere.

    El Debarge, and his family are so talented..They all seem, to be very humble..Its like, they can't believe how much people genuinely, love them and their musical talents. but we do love them. They are a Beautiful family, both inside and out. May, God continue to Bless them all...Much, Respect and Love for you, El and the whole Debarge Family!!!

    Thanks for sharing this. For 1, I didn't know Brian had/has a show; and 2, it is just a different kind of interview when a great musician, a real musician, interviews somebody else of his calibre. Just a different vibe, respect and way of relating.

  • @jdfodio
    @jdfodio Před 5 lety +11

    God inspires the DeBarge Family's music. They are respected by many singer-songwriters and musicians who are amazed by their gifts. I'm glad that El is taking complete responsibility for his drug use here. That's the first step of healing/deliverance that many people skip! I pray that God keeps him and his family saved because they have powerful testimonies of His grace (Bobby included!).

    El, it's to good to see you back; healthy, happy and still lookin good, baby : ) I've prayed and am still praying for you. I was with you while you were away. I would watch the calendar and say El has 6 more months to go. El has 3 more months to go. I was counting down just like you were. Also, thanks for giving Bobby props too. I love me some Bobby, too. I love all the DeBarges, but, Bobby has always had my heart. I'm so looking forward to seeing and hearing more from you. I love you, Baby.

    El is so humble and he knows where his strength comes from. I applaud him for accepting God's love and moving forward with his life. His family surely had their trials and tribulations and they are further proof to God's love.

  • @mhillvo
    @mhillvo Před 4 lety +3

    6:11 I needed some 'time out of mind'....wow. Song title of "Steely Dan" hit...describing addiction I finally discovered while researching the songwriters and their private life struggle with friends who'd O.D.'d and addicted..so many in that industry may make $$ for awhile, but a "DeLorean" type move didn't work for John either, memory recalls...glad he made it through though. Sure it was quite the struggle to find himself authentically. So worth it, IMHO. Old interview, I know...hope he's still doing OK, 2020...a Corona year to remember one day...
