Caldwell is classy incarnate.

He is the originator! Definitely one of the best, underrated, and my personal favorite. Bobby will remain the executioner of excellence.

Bobby Caldwell was one of my favorite Males singers of all times. Rip Bobby you will truly be missed.

Cant get enough of this performance! Utterly heartbroken over the passing of such a gifted, talented soul. This song will forever transcend, age, generations and genres. Rest in Peace, Bobby.

RIP Bobby. Keep coming back to this outrageous live arrangement!

I must make a comment here, my boyfriend was a DJ and he played every music in sight from Donna Summer to Michael Mc Donald, but I always loved this song by Mr Cadwell and in 1979 I heard it at a party and I never forgot it. Then I never heard it until this year August of 2023 when You tube posted it because Mr Cadwell had died in March. I am saying 44 years ago until now and it was emotional in 1979 and it's emotional in 2023. Be Blessed.

Wow.Bobby's still sounding good after all of these years. This is a real recording artist. No fluff like so many of these fly by night singers of today need to take note and listen to a real artist. Love this song.

BC just straight killing it as per usual .... Dude the arrangement in the chorus here is just out of bounds man ... More inversions than the weather in L.A.

OMG THEY KILLED IT!!!!! This version blew me away!

this is incredibe. the musicianship is so high. the way they transposed it was unreal. top notch. Love you Bobby

This record will never die!

god what an arrangment he just takes it to another level he is magic

What a voice and a true gentleman. I was blessed to meet him and we spoke about his horses and all his and his beautiful wife's animals. He signed a CD of which I cherish each moment I spent conversing with him. RIP Sir. You are truly missed and ssnding huge hugs to his wife and family.❤

This man has so much soul. This song will never lose its power.

I could listen to Bobby Caldwell all day long! Doesn't get any better than this one!

His voice is so KILLER. Amazing, even now.

2018! This masterpiece just as good now as 30 some years years ago! Loved it then, love it now.💕❤️💕

Wow! I love the way Bobby deconstructed the song and put it back together with gorgeous new chord changes and that great rising line in the backing vocals and keyboard. Symphonic! What a super class Act and a great loss.

That’s an outstanding improvement on an already legendary song.

He has incredible stage presence, doesn't he? He's the type that makes every in the room feel that they've known him personally for years. A great voice that one never gets tired of. I like the way his backing vocalist (Jeannie?), moves. She's enjoying what she does. This particular song will probably always be the Bobby Caldwell composition we remember most.

Bobby was in his soul days with this one 🎉🎉🎉🎉

What a live performance, from both Bobby Caldwell and his musicians and vocalists ! Very high standard. Thumbs up ! Just love it...!

This song stood the test of time, marvelous.👑 Bobby I love you.🎶

love the chords

Even 16 years ago Bobby was still handsome, cool, sophisticated and AMAZING 😍 Miss you so much!

This arrangement is mind blowing! Love it!

You can't buy it and you can't learn it. When you got IT, you got it and Cool Uncle Bobby has got hot stuff in spades. One of my most favorite songs ever!! by one of my very favorite artists.

He knew that he had that umhhh. A song that is known around the 🌏🌎🌍. That's when you know that you have made it 🙏 To the band 🧊🥃

Classic Timeless MASTERPIECE❤... RIP💐🙏🏽 Bobby, THANK YOU SIR...

Bobby Caldwell a voice given by the Angels ...........Rip Bobby ,....thanks for all the music

I guess a lot of people share my love for this song. I can't put my finger on it, but there is something magical about it. I covered this as a musician and it's an amazing feeling to play this song.

This shows a lot of thought and a lot seasoning. He performs like breathing-and the ascending lines at the end really heighten the power of the emotion and intensity--these lines are absent in early recordings--and have a New York voices kind of harmonic movement and chord voicing. Cool at the beginning---cookin' at the end. Shake and bake!!! Awesome.

This dude is made of silk. Wow!

That vibrato when he says the words, "how I BEEN"...oh my 😮😊

absolutely one of the very best songs ever... . amazing that composer/performers can possibly have so little clue of what will be a hit... the studio version will never be surpassed.. about as perfect a studio piece as possible

One of the all-time great R&B songs of all time .

The band was crushing it!!! Yesssirrrr!!!!

Classy, just classy. Bobby and this song are inmortals

Great to see this great performer, such smooth soul. Also love the Southside Johnny poster in the background.

This version has more spicy than the one I am used to listening on the radio. Thank you Caldwell, one of my favorite songs.

He is so, so cool!!! This is a great version and I’ll never tire of this song.

RIP Bobby❤️ Music of my youth! I had no idea @Patricklamb that you played with him! I have enjoyed you for years playing w/ Gino. Love your sound and personality! God Bless.🙏😊❤️

Dude can sing.

I just found out about 3 weeks about his song darling open your eyes and I can't believe that gem was hidden from me. I love Bobby Caldwell and his music. His music forever will be in my heart and soul. Sip 🕊

Patrick, Joe Bad here from a few Pittsburgh area Gino gigs. Was excited to recognize you in this video that was spreading around yesterday due to Bobby’s untimely passing. RIP Bobby and man your solos made the tune even better!!!

Patrick Lamb well said.We do not need any racism,whether it's black racism which I have read below or any kind of racism. Soul music is for everybody, regardless of race.

Işıklar içinde uyu büyük usta..çok erken vedalaştın beee😢❤️💐👑🍀🇹🇷

those ascending chord changes at the end and Bobby's pipes!! Yes sir. You can see how well he was feeling here and how GOOD he looked and sounded.

'What you Won't do for Love' is the definition of timeless. Superbly performed, it just makes me smile and reach for my Wife's hand. We can listen to this song performed by Mr. Caldwell 20 years from now and still feel that soulful vibe that reminds you how it feels to be in love for the first time. Just amazing. I want to catch his act in February in Florida.

I like this version. Kinda early Earth Wind and Fire-ish at the end (think "Can't Hide Love" by EWF". I can dig it when the original artist makes changes here and there. They perform hits soo often that they need to spice it up. This is the best "alternate" Vesion I've heard him do.

RIP sir. Great music. Legend.

Rest in peace to the great Bobby Caldwell. You will definitely be missed 😢

Still one of the best songs ever, and Bobby is a superb artist. The musical arrangement is outstanding...Bobby's voice is incredible.

Rest in peace Mr. Caldwell! Prayers for your family! Will continue to listen and love your music.

Great music. We will miss Bobby Caldwell!

Ive been singing and dancing to Bobby's songs since the 70.s i love his voice.. what a great singer. RIP BOBBY. Ps ..today.. is the first time i see the face of the man behind this awesome song. You brought us much joy with your voice.. love from Cape Town South Africa. ❤❤❤

Heard this song for years didn't know who sang it but now a fan brilliant ❤

Very gifted and talented singer will be miss

Oh my…some serious re-harm happening here. Never heard this before. Cool but pretty intense for the early morning CBS audience. RIP to the great Bobby Caldwell.

I love Bobby Caldwell. This song speaks volumes.

oh God for me..... you are the best, from all times

Wow loved this man’s voice and song , great talent

Great voice bobby!🤗❤

Any rude or racist comments will be removed and you will be blocked permanently from commenting so don't do it. tx

So cool. Sweet song.

He was the absolute best. I could play this day and night. RIP Bobby, we miss you.

I have loved Bobby since I was 15 when this song came out back then! This whole album was baddd and I still rock Bobby! I know his voice anywhere, and this version I love heard it, I just heard it on Pandora a couple nights ago and it woke me out if my sleep. I came to KZfaq and found it.

Bobby Caldwell in concert with last Boney James last tour with him and 30+ piece Band! This Was By Far the Very Best Concert I will Ever be at! So Much Energy by ALL!!!

Musicians know what I’m trying to say 😆😆😆 the progressions are crazy

Not only did Bobby Caldwell sing and perform but he was very handsome! I admired him and his 25 year marriage.

This is the shiiiiit LOVE IT REAL MUSIC!! NYC BABY!

I usually don't like it when the original artist, much less anyone else, screws with the original arrangement but I must say this is worthy. One of the greatest records of all time.

This is just as good as anything can get. Just SUPERB!!! Never judge a "Song" book by its cover. Just SUPERB!!!

This ls always Awesome! You will be missed so much!

My most favorite song ever! I remeber going to my local record store to buy it and the owner sold me 4 knock off versions before ordering me the real one. I was so pissed. The message in the lyrics is so true! Bobby please don't change it up during your performance too much. The original is a masterpece and everyone loves to hear the masterpiece as it was originally intended. Thanks for such a great song. Live Long.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ one of the baddest Vocalist!!

After all these years, Bobby Cauldwell kook still has it! Great voice.

LEGEND.
