(MORE CLIPS FROM THE MOVIE "Ray" • Ray - Hit The Road Jac... ) Jamie Foxx stars as the one-of-a-kind innovator of soul, Ray Charles, who overcame impossible odds and humble beginnings to become an extraordinary music legend.
That's so ironic. I just now caught it - he just sang unchain my heart... "Set me free"... and then immediately we see he's chained down by drugs. Excellent writing.
Yes, but anything can be a drug if you let it. While love is a great thing, even that can become toxic. A relationship goes south without communication. Moreover, we often use drugs, whether medicinal or illicit to stem or masquerade other issues. So while the song is foreshadowing his physical chain to drug use, IMO that the real thing that is chaining him down is that of his feeling of guilt towards his brother.
Back then it was all about album promotion, RU-vid does all the work for the artists now but when Brother Ray was coming up you had to hit the road and do a tour for people to hear your new songs. It was better that way honestly.
I love this scene after rey says let them dance he starts again with im under your spell and the whole audience starts clapping along with the song just awesome!!
Love to see all the people in the audience movin' and groovin' as one. They must have had a ball filming this scene. Good music really does bring people together.
ME TOO. AWE INSPIRING TO SEE THE BEAUTY OF PEOPLE HAVING FUN, DANCING, CELEBRATING, SINGING & ENJOYING EACH OTHER’S COMPANY REGARDLESS OF RACE👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love this scene it’s one of my favorites in the movie and love to sing along to!!! 😍 ❤️ ❤️ 🤩 Jamie Foxx played Ray Charles so wonderful and fantastic!! That’s my favorite role by him!! ❤😊❤😊
"Чёрная музыка," и её исполнители, как по мне, это и есть главная заслуга "гребаной" американской культуры. Хочется сказать "Спасибо", всем тем, кто творил искусство, несмотря на рассовые, религиозные и прочие отличия. Низкий поклон Вам, Божиим людям. И не только чёрным. Всем вообще. Спасибо 🤗
Exactly!!!! And everybody thought it was just good music, whole time he needed help. Only person who really saw it was his wife. The record companies, the bands, none of them cared smh.
Unchain my heart, baby let me be 'Cause you don't care, help me, set me free Unchain my heart, baby let me go Unchain my heart, 'cause you don't love me no more Every time I call you on the phone Some fellow tells me that you're not at home Unchain my heart, set me free Unchain my heart (unchain my heart), baby let me be Unchain my heart (unchain my heart), 'cause you don't care about me You got me sewed up like a narrow case But you let my love go to waste Unchain my heart, set me free I'm under your spell, like a man in a trance, baby Oh but you know damn well, that I don't stand a chance Unchain my heart (unchain my heart), let me go my way Unchain my heart (unchain my heart), you were mean that day Why lead me through a life of misery When you don't care a bag of beans for me Unchain my heart, oh please, let me free, alright
It's surreal that, back in that particular day, the "fun police" were powerless. Sorry, coppers, you can't stop them from getting their grove on! 🕺💃🕺💃😄😄😄
Dank_teeth_ paste Naww everything he said is the opposite! We should’ve just listened to Malcom X fight them the way the way they fight is! Fuck that nonviolent shit
@@remainloyaltoyour0wnsoil580 Even Malcolm called for a different course of action towards the end of his life. It's what got him killed, and he knew it would, but he was committed to it anyway in the end.
See. Memo to the WOKE crowd. We, the white supremacist are dancing here in the 1960's. Quit wearing racism on your chip-on-the-shoulder mantle!!!!! The problems lie within each individuals brain. Go Ray!!
