Now The Rev. Al Green 💓 I have loved Al since the late sixties, I was a teen when I found this amazing singer. He was incredibly popular, women went crazy over his voice, then he had enough of the life in spotlight and went back to the church to give his message to the people. He did full circle, being brought up to revere the church & it’s hymns, then the family moved from the country up to Michigan where Al discovered a new kind of music and began singing the music of Motown… well his father kicked him out of the home and young Al wandered around singing & did have a band, then he was discovered by his agent and went on to become a huge r & b singer… this went on for years until he felt the church calling him home & from then to present day is a preacher ( bringing him full circle). Please find the celebration at The Kennedy Centre Awards where Rev Al Green is honoured by Earth,Wind & Fire, Jennifer Hudson, Usher, then finally Sam Moore ( of soul duo Sam & Dave of the 60’s - 70’s) & Mavis Staples who sing Take Me To the River along with an entire choir - You will love Al’s reactions 🥰💥💫
😮😮😮 Ma i testi delle canzoni sono pura fantasia ,il genio e stato proprio fare un brano così articolato e unico,non ha niente a vedere con l' autore ,mica Freddie ha ucciso qualcuno. L' aveva detto lui stesso che non se lo spiegava neanche lui il significato,solo che aveva in mente già da molto la parte musicale di B.R. Il pubblico l' ha cantato questo brano perché il più famoso, quello che li ha reso famoso.❤
This speaks volumes so much louder than any set of speakers could ever match. I had something a tiny bit similar happen when a group of friends with me went to a local packed theater in our city and watched a re-release of Wayne’s World for an event and we had the entire block probably that whole side of the area code shake and rumble when Bohemian Rhapsody blared thru the speakers.
This song is not a love song, it refers to the break up of the singing group The Bee Gees. "How Can You Mend.." was never released a single by Stax Records, later in 1978 Vogue released it as a 45 rpm. This tune was written after a breakup of the Bee Gees. “How Can You Mend A Broken Heart”, originally released by The Bee Gees, was the lead single on the Bee Gees album Trafalgar. Primarily written by Barry and Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees, this song was the groups first U.S. number one hit! The song was written after a period of distance between the brothers. The writing of the song helped bring the brothers back together. Billboard ranked the track as No. 5 song for the year of 1971. Lyrically, the song is genius. Its central question about how to mend a broken heart is answered in one word never actually uttered by Robin Gibb: Love. Barry and Robin wrote the song as they were bringing the band back together after the Bee Gees had split up. It really is a song about the brothers and for the brothers but it reflects the universality of sorrow being vanquished by joy, the joy of love. This most human of truths will remain a constant as long as people live. Al Green's one and only number one hit was in 1972, Al Green went to No. 1 on the US singles chart with "Let's Stay Together," his only US chart topper.
truly LOVE the reaction!! :) Maybe check out NEIL PEART Buddy Rich HONOR?????!!!!!!!!! :) ♥AND, or... Victor Wooten bass magic????????? :) “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” ~ Romans 15:13
First of all happy New Year's to ever read this message and may the Lord help you prosper this year and give him God bless you have a read this message and continue listening to the song
I love Freddie no matter *what* he’s singing ! Ballads? Yes ! Rock? Yes ! Old-timey Music Hall style? Yes. Weird fantasy prog-rock? Yes. Disco/Funk? Yes. A fusion of Pop and Opera with Montserrat Caballé? YES ! The man was a musical/vocal genius with a generous dollop of Best Frontman Ever.
I agree with previous comments, this is definitely a fake …. maybe an Elvis impersonator, but not Elvis himself. This song was on Queen’s 8th studio album released in June 1980, almost 3 years after Elvis died.
Ugh. Elvis was already dead when Freddie wrote this song. It’s a QUEEN original. Freddie wrote it *in tribute* to Elvis (and all the other rockabilly artists from the 50s/ 60s). That’s not Elvis Presley’s voice in this pseudo-duet, it’s some impersonator.
Oh my god above... I found a woman... That finally understands... That right there made me love her INSTANTLY... LOL. women wearing super TIIIIGHT clothes.. and nothing can shake... And that's a BAD THING... omg my dream woman.. lol
This hits me deep because my oldest sister died 3 months before I was born which effected me in a big way because I actually remember the nightmares my mother had when I was in the womb and in life I’ve felt her as a guardian angel because there’s been many times when I should have died but survived
