Robert Cray - Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark 

Still awesome in August 2024!

Zeitlos schön

I love everything about this man. His voice and his equally impressive guitar style

Top of the list for me as one of my favorite blues singers

Robert Cray u rock brother

Robert Cray is a blues specialist, untouchable, cool vocals also. One of the greatest blues performers of our time🎸🎤

Anyone notice the almost-stationary bass guitarist in the background? What with everyone else moving in time to the song you would have thought he detracts from the performance but for some reason he lends a solid seriousness which just adds to the ambience.

Love Robert cray ❤❤❤

He one of my all time favorites, this song reminds of a girlfriend I dated for several years. We had some good times, I still miss her.

Very, wery good...!!!

I'm swooning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful

He’s the best . Had the chance to Watch him twice live and to talk to him face to face . That was one moment I will never forget ❤

Fire 🔥 Still blazzin 🔥

Robert Cray has been playing for 40 years. He's a master of the blues. This is probably his best song. Next to my idol Stevie Ray Vaughn his my second best.🙏🏼🎤🎸💯🤟

What a great voice❤

Always liked Robert Cray. Very soulful singer and very tasty guitar player!

CLASSIC

Soulful smooth Robert Cray

Smoothin', oozin', closer! Uwwwuuu!

Great, Great Song.

He is a perfect fusion of what people call white rock and grassroots blues He gives me hope that tribes can meet so beautifully and create a human blend Utterly delightful

Love his voice.... a blend of Otis Redding and Sam Cooke. Smoothhhhhhh!

I really love this song and others. I wish he would come back to Madison, Indiana . Robert Cray is incredible.

I love Robert Cray always~

Robert deserves an Gold Metal for his Fabulous Music.

One of his best and that is saying lots. This song never gets old. NEVER.

i frkn luv the Craymaster

What a Voice! And he's can play the Stratocaster pretty good too.....

I have been listening to this song since 1985 it never gets old, I still crank it up in the charger !!

Listening to Robert Cray in summer of 2023...still get goosebumps listening to Robert's music 🎶

I love his vibe

without any words one of the BEST SINGERS OF THE WORLD with HIS BAND. ALL is perfect for me: the singer, the composition, the band, the moment, the songwriter, the song text, the intonation, the situation, the feeling, ALL ALL .. YEAH. I am an older woman with 58 years but the song gives me many POWER; thank you Robert Cray.... and I love it, many members of my family have the same surname of the singer, wow I like it. Playing this song is a party, a big moment, powerful, being stronger and stronger...

BRILLIANT.

Listening to Robert Cray in 2020...still get goosebumps listening to his music 🎶

MASTERPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIECE !!!!!!!

This man has been kicking ass for 35yrs that I know of

SAW THIS MAN IN 1986 AT DE ANZA COMMUNITY COLLEGE AND IT WAS A GREAT SHOW!

Love this man and his band. Saw him in Ashland, Oregon in 1980 at a cozy bar. What a fabulous night.

Silk slick and sick and smooth and all what a song 😍💖 all i can say to be blessed and part of the greatest decade of all time never to forget miss it so much oh hail the 80s 80s

he is a hero

Been a fan of his music since the 80's. Wonderful blues.

Great bluesman!!

My favorite musical artist of all time. Have seen him in concert and have all his CD’s.

The guitar part from, 2:53, to, 2:56, was VERY NICE. The three words RIGHT AFTER that which went, "don't be afraid," made it even more mellow.

He is simply "The Great One" ...

Robert Cray invited me to watch his band rehearse this song in the Ballroom of the Portland Marriot. . I spotted him walking thru the lobby. I had seen him open for the Dead early in the summer. Told him I bought his album after that show and he said thanks Man & invited me to listen to this. I will never forget it. Richard Cousins was his Bass Guitar player back then. They really had a great sound.

Young Bob…what a guy!

One of the best if not the best of all time. I'm a Stevie Ray Vaughan fan and will be forever. But Robert Cray is a legendary 🎸🎤🎧🎹🎷🙏

So clear !!!

I just discovered Robert Cray tonight. Oh My God what I have missed for so long.

i use close the night off @ 2am as a DJ, this was one of the songs...brillant ...Katherine NT Kirby's Bar

Old thread but Robert Cray is definitely a living legend. Such a killer skilled guitarist with such a unique style, sound and tone. You know you’ve arrived when people can recognize your music by simply hearing it without seeing the player or being told who they are. 👏👏👏

WHAT a song!

I have been listening to Robert Cray since 1973.....when he began his career in Eugene, Oregon and I NEVER get tired of him. He was wonderful then and has only polished his style with time. Sing it young Bob!

Heerlijk nummer

Just discovered this song, absolutely love it, Robert’s voice is smooth a silk!!!!

Thank You...

I hope some of todays so called singers can take lessons from this guy

very impressive. ❤

One of the greatest blues master with iconic past legends like my favorite Stevie Ray Vaughn. Truly a great artist🎸🎸🎸🎷🎷🎺🎺

Still have this on vinyl....geezz, i'm getting old I guess, LOL! Great album that never gets old!

Roberts blues style is clean and romantic than other blues players

Cool never goes out of fashion...................................and this is just so so cool.

Amazing never gets old love him

I still loving this song.... Its too good to be forget...

Gotta love Robert Cray band he has a ton of good music.

Just saw him live tonight for the first time. Guy is an absolute legend on the guitar and his voice is still silky smooth.

Robert cray, is for me a great guitarist and singer one of a kind, very unique have loved his music for years 🎸🎸🎸🎸

Robert Cray show was Awesome, got to see him back in 1996 he did this song. It was at the river at the park in Spokecane Washinton. One of the best shows I'VE EVER SEEN

Robert Cray- One of God's most beautiful creations.

Still lovin Robert Cray in 2022

I love this man and wouldn't be afraid of the dark if he was there to hold me! ♥ Robert cray is even better in concert than on CD,he is one artist who can duplicate his sound in person,just awesome on that guitar! ♥

Very smooth style - Robert Cray has such a beautiful stage presence and his soulful voice just carries you away.

Just saw him last night at celebrity theater. Awesome!

Ik heb deze pas gevonden..ik vind het een zéér mooi ritme !mooie stem trouwens ,prettig om te luisteren.

My all-time favorite Robert Cray song.

2022? 🤷‍♀️ I ask myself what do I want to hear today and Robert Cray always gets me going! ♥️🥰💋

Loving it on this cold day in New Zealand 06/05/20

Seine Musik ist einzigartig

My favorite from Mr. Cray 😎🎸

Stil love hearing this...wonderful!

I remember my dad playing this song on a road trip from NYC to Charlotte NC. As soon as this track started you could feel the car take off. Dad loved to play "dodge a ticket". I sure do miss him.

Great song! Does anybody else remember when they used this song in commercials for Michelob Dark?

This whole album was so underrated, it's sickening to me! The record label should've pushed heavy airplay on it. It would've been in the top 40 pop albums of that year!!!!

MASTERPIECE SONG , THANKYOU.

This is the Aston Martin of blues singing / playing.

I’m Australian I have been listening to rock & blues for 50yrs I know thousands of songs word for word and timing I don’t say I can sing I’m a very good mimic I can mimic pearl jam through to John Farnham I can’t tell you why but this song is on a loop in my head for decades every empty moment at work or shopping anywhere it’s playing when someone is trying to intimidate me I’m singing “I’m at my best in a pitch black room” it’s enough to make them think this might not be the right bloke to fuck around with when I’m trying to be smooth consoling but future next ex it’s a whisper‘Don’t be afraid of the dark’ what a gift it is this fkn song I can’t get rid of even though I’d be lost without it I have even used his other classic in the morning to remind me to get out of there before the cuddling starts ‘ get this still hot smoking gun out of here he’ll put 2 and 1 together and I’ve had my fill of her kind of fun’😎😢

Been listening to him since I was a child I saw him and Eric Clapton live in 2006 will never forget it! Definitely a blues Legend

Just found this band,/ man fantastic 🎉🎉 October 17 Tuesday 2023

Saw them last Saturday, they opened for The Doobie Brothers. Loved it.❤

The best thing about the blues is that you find the best people on earth sharing this music with you.Robert Cray keep up the great work.
