The Stylistics - Love Comes Easy 

We must never, ever, forget the genius, of the late Thom Bell, and Linda Creed, who wrote this heart felt song. Growing up in Philly, not far from where it was recorded, I first heard it decades ago, on WDAS. And since that time, I've put my heart in my hand many many times, and found love did in fact, come easy. Thank you Linda and Thom. I'm at it again with no doubt, that your simple formula, will help me find love at 68, one more time. Rest in peace.

The day I discovered this song was one of the greatest days of my life. I didn’t listen to anything for the rest of the day. This is absolutely beautiful in every way. 💚💜.

Such sophistication in every aspect. Vocals, strings, horns and rhythm. Thom Bell was/is pure genius.

This song is so relevant today as it was then. ✌🏼👊🏼🙏🏼

one of their best love songs ever. so underrated.

THE "ROCKIN' ROLL BABY" ALBUM!!! The BEST ALBUM ever recorded by ANYBODY! I miss you Thom & Linda, and, ALL the men and women that had ANYTHING to do with the production of THE STYLISTICS' "Rockin' Roll Baby" album. I HONOR ALL of you.

R.I.P. to producer Thom Bell. (January 27th,1943- December 22nd,2022) 😭

A beautiful song with definite meaning and purpose. True classic, grown folks music. Love it.

This album was masterfully done. One you can't forget.!!

What beautiful memories! They don't make music like this anymore. Maybe smooth jazz can compete.

This song timeless..reminds us all how easy it is to love!

A very very beautiful record

This song is heaven .

Such beautiful songs on the albums that didn't make the top hits because they weren't released as a single. This is one of them. Beautiful job Russell Thompkins Jr. You could sing a road map and it would have ladies swooning....and men wishing they could sing like you...and they tried . I don't think you ever recorded a bad song in the over 300 you recorded. Legendary Russell!!!! Keep it up. 🎶🎤🎶

Yes. This is a beautiful song. The harmony is out of this world.

In the seventies I wore the vinyl down on this album. One of my favorite songs.

Every song on this album is perfectly arranged and produced! Is that Zach Zachary on Alto Sax? Thom Bell was a genius!!! "Love Comes Easy" has it all: great chords, beautiful string and horn arrangement, perfect lyrics and vocals, great recording from Joe Tarsia etc.,.........I'm glad I was here in this 'time' to buy this 'gem', and I still have the original album!

WHAT AN UNBELIEVABLY BEAUTIFUL SONG - LIKE WHAT SEEMS TO BE ALL OF TOM BELL AND LINDA CREED'S (R.I.P.) SONGS! Linda Creed is still my all time favorite female songwriter! I loved me some Linda Creed! It broke my heart when she died. I was 5 yrs. old when this came out and I remember (I have a photographic memory, so I remember things - even going back to when I was 5 yrs. old like it yesterday - bouncing around every time I heard it! SIDE NOTE: I'm still bouncing around every time I hear it!

It's that SMOOTH Philly Sound(MFSB)-that makes the OVERall connection to your ears!🎶(its unmistakable)🎶

Love is not that hard! Just try letting go of all the hostility and vendetta, and it's easy! Peace my brothers and sisters!

Iike sweet honey, and fresh water to a thirsty soul this song is so utterly refreshing. A truly, truly, timeless song.

Was maybe not one or their bigger hits, but lovely lyrics and arrangements. Very soothing and when I played it at home, people always liked it. Thom Bell was nothing sort of a musical genius! I saw a video about his retirement. A fulfilled and content man with brand new interests.

Class, Polish & Sophistication EVERYTIME! (the perfect collaboration of writers and lyricists❤)

Love Love this smooth amazing song. This is to last us a lifetime. Thank you Stylistics.💞🎼

What a messege for our world today , let us love and pray for each other , love comes easy.

I just found out about this song. I’m a 70’s baby, but I love this song

Defintely underrated, and Thom Bell's production is classic. Thanks for posting!

Both changed my life Musically. Thom Bell started the Sound of Philly before Gamble and Huff. .. sort of..

AWSUM and beautiful song!!

I believe love can come easy, be available to it, allow the chase to take place

Yes, when you find the "right one", Love does come Easy"....Making it last ,however is a different thing altogether.

First time to hear this nice song of stylistic. Every song is amazing. Love it👌

This mellow music just hearing it, l feel love's healing power in the midnight's hour.

Another song written by the late greats Thom Bell and Linda creed, RIP.

I miss songs like this it takes me back 2 the good old days when it peaceful shikil67

Makes me think of the BRILLIANT song by the 5th Dimension,: Loves Lines, Rtlythmn and Rhymes written by Dorthea Joyce! Both of these songs ARE monsters!!!!

First heard it in 73, and still love it.Bell and Creed were wonderful.

I love this song.

Not money, not sex, certainly not status. Who can boast, we're all in this together! Love your woman, let him love his girl! There is someone for each of other, be CONTENT with the one for you! PEACE my brothers and sisters, Find the one for you!

This is one of my favorite songs by The Stylistics, however, this particular song sounds like it’s been remastered it doesn’t sound like the original one, now I could be wrong anyway it’s a great song always loved it!

Taylor made for that Stylistics sound.

Another masterpiece from the pen of Thom Bell and Linda Creed❤ indeed it can and as you grow older as you find yourself at a crossroads the choices you make are so often governed by the circumstances of others you fall for who can never be yours. I'm now 69 and as life becomes more complicated so what's around is equally so. It's all about happiness and the love you share what you can and what you can't what you have and what you don't. It's all about contentment and havin your soulmate by your side. That can sometimes take a lifetime to find. Those that do are luckier than they'll probably ever know....for sure love comes easy.....looking for the right one....now there's the prize💞Soulkev 🧭🧵
