SOMEWHERE around 2005-2006 I think Iwas working at Meineke muffler shop and when I pulled this one customers car in the shop TAKE 6 was in her cassett player. I was just blown away. I know I wasnt supposed to mess with customers property but I could not help my self. I pulled the cassette out and played it in my cassette player in the shop. After doing the repair on her car I put the cassette back. When she came back I told her what I had done and hoped that she wouldnt be mad.She realy suprised me and gave me the cassette. to that LADY thank you so much. II was having a lot of problems at that time and what you did for me that day was a real blessing and that music and your kindness made all the differince. May God bless you and your family and friends.
That's cool. My mother did something similar by giving a stranger the CD from her car (pretty sure it was Donald Lawrence). The stranger ended up visiting our church as a result. ...the funny thing is that it was my CD she gave away lol:)
Curtis Moore God bless you and your family. Your comment really made my day. And I was similarly blown away the first time I heard this wonderful group. One of the best all-time!
Really diggin how if you listen closely you can hear El in the background, especially on the chorus. . "My baby.. my darling.." As always Take 6 kicked ass. Respect to the DeBarge fam too! Mad love
Men of God, with the voices of angels. He bestows His gifts so beautifully,. May you all continue in his blessings and love. I've played this continually for a half hour, and see no reason to stop, just yet,
Best male group ever! This is music that brings joy and healing. Mainstream audiences would buy in but the music industry won't market it. Sad but true.
Leah Hannah I hear you. They are at the top of their game through not only extraordinary talent but extreme dedication and hard work. I teach at an art school in Ohio and whenever I play their music for my music engineering class, usually, 100% of the high school students have never heard of them. It's sad but true. The industry often avoids marketing artistic excellence at this level.
"I was a young man on Glendale St in Detroit. Mr. Dent who was Cedrick's father was a very wise and cool man. Even as a youngster I used to see him and the rest of the group on the block harmonizing while they visited momma and poppa Dent. I never knew how close I was to greatness. Now you can see why I loved these guys ever since. I have been blessed to have interacted with so many talented people from the D before they were famous and have gotten to see their journey. Such as mines."----Kevin "THEME" Mitchell
Is it just me, or do their silhouettes look like the Wayans standing there? I know it's not Shawn and Marlon on the right and Keenan and Damon in the middle...lol!
OOOOOO, oh my God. I hit this TOTALLY out of curiosity [only because I like acapella music]. But as soon as I heard the tempo and the melodic tune I was sold. Who cares out the words? Words are overrated...lolol.
I know what you're saying about the words not being needed for this beautiful version but I have to say that the lyrics of the original song by debarge are if anything extremely underrated. I think it is one of the great genius songs of all time. The song goes through 5 or 6 different but unified phases just like a concerto or even a brief symphony. It is a genius song lyrically and musically but is rarely acknowledged as such.
This instrumental is the SWEETEST THING!! Hubs to be and I have decided to use it for our ceremony, no one but you gentlemen that I have listened to for most of my life, escorting my family, children, and hubs and I to that altar. It's final! 🤗
Take 6 always has been an extremely "under-rated group. They are truly one of the most precious gifts from God. This is one of the most talented, good-looking group of Men. I think that they aren't even aware of just how awesome they are. I would love to see them record more and share thier musical gifts with the world. We would all be better for it!
thx for the info regarding jc bentley . took a listen to her version and had to stop her voice clashes she was out of tune within a few notes don't know what brian and claude hears in her but they could have gotten much better vocal talent at any local baptist church than hers must be the system pushing her on them bcuz i know those brothers have betters ears than i do musically . so i am back st searching for the version with only take 6 have been a huge take 6 fan since spread love and would love to add this to my collection of thwir work. would really appreciate anyones help in acquiring a copy of this masterpiece
Take 6 is definitely one of my favorite groups of all time. I still remember the first time I heard their beautiful harmonies and was blown away, and an immediate fan.
All this talent on this green earth, we are still not listening, what dose it take to change the heart of man, just listen to Take 6 and Debarge, with this kind of harmony there should be peace on earth
Lord, Lord, Lord! If Debarge had sung on lead on this, it would have been MAD CRAZY! or if Take 6 did back up on his album the music would have sold off the shelf!
