www.YouKnowIGotSoul.com Footage I took of El DeBarge performing "I Want You" live at Highline Ballroom in NYC on 11/30/10. Check my website YouKnowIGotSoul for all of the songs he performed as I filmed his whole set!
All I can say is how can 1 person have so many different talents? He's not just good or mediocre at what he does, he's the best. He's a gift from God only loaned to us so let's continue to show him what he means to us.
El DeBarge is a Phenomenal Singer, Musician and Entertainer. Can't wait for him to come to Baltimore. I just might have to fly to another city to catch him live. Rock On El !! #FanForLife
@ninacleveland I think he was singing All This Love and he said he wasnt trying to be nasty, its just getting a little warm in here. And he just kept unbuttoning and I was like OMG!!! Is he gonna strip?!? But he stopped. LOL!! In this video right here, the two parts we had SERIOUS eye contact was at 0:12 - 0:20 (right after I screamed like a nut) and then at 1:16 - 1:30. We were singing together. My heart started racing because it was so intense!! He is such a plesure to look at. : P
@ninacleveland Dang!! Im sorry. If it was the show on I think Dec1, he couldnt catch a flight out of New York after this concert. It was raining here like I never seen it rain before!! It was weird and all flights were being cancelled. Im sure he will be back in your area soon. He is EVEYWHERE!! I wonder, when does he sleep!! LOL!! You gotta have amazing energy to do what El does, and he does it well!!
Now I grew up with and love the music of El DeBarge...but errr uhh, no M'am. I suggest you youngins go back and listen to the original, as well as the audio of Marvin's isolated background voicings here on YT- dude was composing Gregorian chants and intertwining them with a soul ballad for an ecstatic mix of the sacred and the worldly, it's GENIUS- and I think El DeBarge, a fellow Motown alum recognizes the genius from which his own is inspired and knows he is carrying on the tradition of that music.
