Lost Donny Hathaway in January 1979 and Minnie Riperton months later in July. They were both in their early 30's (33 and 31, respectively). Both so talented and gone too soon but they left behind music that'll be enjoyed as long as humans exist. 🙏🏽

Brutha, I just have to say, that your channel highlights what true soul music was all about. All the passion, emotion, wrapped up in the gifts of a very talented artist. They’re each depicted in this one song. It truly was a very special rendition to a singer like no other. Donny Hathaway, we miss you still today, some 40 years after your passing. And young bruh, you remind each of us just how many fabulous hits we grew up on, when we were even younger than you. Thank you for the memories my brutha! I’m subscribed and following you regularly!!

I remember when I first heard this song performed by the whispers, who was friends of Donny Hathaway, beautiful song, is dedicated to Donny Hathaway, is the melody of his song, this Christmas by Donny Hathaway, but they slow it down

He had schizophrenia , he stopped taking his medication and he was hallucinating and fell out of a hotel window . I watched the TV one unsung episode where they said this. I don’t know if he was on meds and stopped taking them or if he was undiagnosed. But he did jump out of a hotel window from what they said.

It's been many years, but I am so sorry this has happened & definitely a tear jerker🥲

@davidrust9930 3 года назад

It's from the Christmas song called"This Christmas which was a very big hit for the Whispers

@seddrock 2 года назад

This was made after their version of 'this Christmas' which was originated by Donny Hathaway and dedicated to him

@jaysonbiggs8979 3 года назад

The melody is the same as "This Christmas"(an instant classic Xmas song from 1969). The lyrics were changed and the music slowed down. The Whispers also cover "This Christmas." It ranks right up there with the original by Donny. Donny Hathaway suffered from great bouts of depression. In 1979 he jumped out of a high rise.

@nikkisatchel4699 3 года назад

he was one of their best friends

@kathyowens4811 3 года назад

Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, listen to The Whispers singing This Christmas. Donny Hathaway was singing with The Whispers on the This Christmas song. You'll appreciate it more when you listen to these songs back to back. Awesome tribute to an amazing person. Done after Donny Hathaway passed away. Donny Hathaway wasn't even dead for a whole year when the Song For Donny was done. Donny Hathaway committed suicide. He was very unhappy with life. So he took his own life. After singing with The Whispers, Roberta Flack and later a soloist. Suicide is not a good thing. However; Donny Hathaway went out while he was in his prime. I miss you Donny. 😥😭

@garfield122010 3 года назад

It's quite coincidental you putting this up, I have just bought Donny hathaways greatest hits this week, and his Christmas song is my all time fav Christmas song ❤️

@caseybrown6848 3 года назад

@oakwoodite2000 3 года назад

Another tribute you should check out is "Missing You" by Diana Ross. This was her tribute to Marvin Gaye when he passed awzy.

@deewatts8712 3 года назад

Your comment is 7 months old. But gonna comment on this anyway. Hope he sees it and actually plays it. And not the audio only one. That was a great tribute to Marvin Gaye.

The title of the song "A Song For Donny" is also in reference to one of "Donny Hathaway's biggest songs "A Song For You" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VILvcLmZ-qI.html Also, "Donny Hathaway" commented suicide. He jumped off the balcony of his 15 story apartment building The Essex House.

This is their song for Donny Hathaway who passed away

@Tessiefaye 3 года назад

I remember when they released this song in memory of Donny Hathaway, "This Christmas". Donny Hathaway suffered from paranoid schizophrenia with bouts of unusual behavior for many years. When He'd take his meds it would help but he didn't like the way the meds mad him feel and would stop taking them. After about 10 years of depression and PS he committed suicide.

@peggycornute2231 2 года назад

Young men if you want to know how to talk to ladies...listen to the whispers...every thing they put out was a love song...

@cathyreed6723 3 года назад
