He deserves to be Inducted Into The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. Periodt.

Pure soul. He put his whole heart, soul, blood, sweat and tears in every single song he ever recorded. I love this man's music.

I remember the first time I heard this man,I was probably six or seven and I asked my mother who was that,she said Donny Hathaway, THE BEST SINGER THAT EVER SANG! He captured me at that age with that heavenly voice!!! He still heals me today!!! He is missed!!

The greatest of all time The immortal Donny Hathaway

Donny moves me like no other artist

Yes, Donny'voice take you on an emotional journey like no other vocalist. Yet, I think its important to remember he was also an incredible musician, a musical prodigy who made his piano sing just as soulfully as his voice.

I love his music but I always want to cry after I hear him.

Undeniably pure sweat tears and soul. The most anointed Artist to ever grace the stage of Music. This is what Greatness is all about

Man this brother was the best. I'm glad I grew up during this period, music of the 70's was just beautiful. Marvin Gaye, Donnie Hathaway, Al green, the Carpenters, Stevie wonder, joe cocker, the Eagles, Jackson Five, the moments, Roberta flack, Barbara Streisand, Diana Ross I could go on and on. This is what was played on Am radio.

Dude just had it. Whatever "It" is.

Donny is one of most Incredibly voiced singers I’ve ever heard. Blessed with a Beautiful Voice, he was just so talented.

Shaking my head at the stank. He sounds so smooth and soothing yet powerful, it's so complex. Thank God for this man

❤❤I'm sorry you weren't sick in a time that you could've really been helped. You were blessed-we were blessed to have you for the short time we did. Hope you're in a place of no fear and much peace❤❤

Donny has that God unique exquisite voice that just captivates any audience. He may just be the best singer of all time I'm dead serious he was beyond any other before or after him

The late great Donny Hathaway. RIP Brother.

Amazingly gifted like Marvin Gaye. Once in a lifetime talent that is TRULY missed but will NEVER be forgotten! #truesoullegend

the one and only undoubtable, unarguable G.O.A.T

When this man sings you can just feel it all throw your body Lord so much talent ❤️❤️❤️😪😪

Hauntingly Beautiful!

My gawd... Straight from the soul.

Just recently a year ago heard this name and voice and now I can't stop listening. Whatched "UNSUNG" The Donny Hathaway Story. I was overwhelmed with tears and emotions. So saddened the such a young and talented life was taken so soon. Forever remembered ❤️❤️❤️

Perfect male voice... I wish he were still here, but I am happy that he's at peace right now.

I love this song. He sang from his heart!!!

Pures Silk ... May 2022 .This music will never be forgotten

He sang the stew outta this!!! Man, he could saaaaaaaaaaaang!!

Wow I never heard this live version . Been I fan since I was 8 years old and I'm 39 now.

I had this song on a 45” disc (not this version live though). If my memory serves me correctly, “Giving Up” was on the flip side. I love both tunes. I love every entire song that I heard released by Donny. His musicians were always incredibly soulful as well. Donny was played great bass as well. I wanted to actually experience one of his “LIVE” performances. I was in Illeshiem Germany when a friend named Albert Mattei gave me the tragic news about Donny’s death. I actually had tears. I was twenty yo at the time. I was so heart-broken. Then came Lalah. And when heard her the first time and even afterwards, it raised the hairs on my body. Love this song just as much today. All versions of it. Peace. Thanks for posting.

Use to play this 45 over an over an over. 70's music absolutely the best. Don't make music like this anymore. Straight from the soul.

What a, fabulous live version of this tune!! He was the best ever at ballads!!! Bless you Mr Hathaway!! 👏🥂❤️👏🥂❤️👏🥂❤️👏🥂❤️👏❤️👏

That performance was out of this world! So much feel

Best version ever. Thanks Donny 💝

He was the best, so soulful, yet haunting, the sound and feeling lingers with you forever. A beautiful brother who did not get the help he needed, like so many stars of that time, your spirit lingers on and we love you Donny ❤️

Nevr listened to this guy before - bot WOW. I sort of got stuck on Gil Scott Heron, Bobby Womack, even quirky Marvin Gaye. I love his music. There is so great music in the world.

Woke up to this timeless classic playing.

Wow he did this where I live, too bad I wasn't alive to see this great performance. I definitely would've paid for the tickets, thanks for posting.

Al Kooper sure wrote a beautiful song that Donny did justice to.

Oh Wow!!🥰listening to this song with my headsets on, and for a moment I felt transported to another time, on where this man was singing this song to me😍His voice eternal💫☄️

From the deep soul comes this incredible voice, I have always loved this artist singing and piano playing.....Rest in peace Donny, you have left us with a great gift in your powerful voice...

Just...DAMN. One of my idols.

One of the greatest to ever step to the mic and he was hell with a pen. Too much talent in one man. Life cut short do to illness. Tragic

Soulful, melodic and pure black from around the way rooted in the joy and pain of the ghetto sound.

My dad's band opened up for donny in flint mi and Oklahoma city .. the stories he told me are incredible...

Sannnnggggg Donny!!!!!!

2o21 great soul music amen it's about time

Genius

The band in this one!! Good gawd!! What luck for both parties!

Make a nice day is better than have a nice day because only you can make a nice day for yourself.

Own league 🔥

this is so good!

Hear the stereo vibrato, on his Fender Rhodes, and his voice vibe. It’s his ‘man’s world’, I love it, it that Eric Gale..?

this song makes me want to cry and IDK why!

He 's agrubly the greatest live performer to come from the African American Race hands down. 😆😆😆 M

Real singing, no auto tunes

Thank you for posting this. Wow, I just love him so much. No one comes close ❤️

THis brother sang from his SOUL/HEART. They dont sing like this no more. Its all about lust, sneaking around, one night stands and not pure love. How sad.

La esencia del soul en esa voz..puro sentimiento

Feel the space between notes.

Whenever I get in my feelings and have a cocktail…. Donny Hathaway is playing! 😅

Wonderful

The Blues. Genius

Pure soul....

2021 loving the sound

Gênio da música

WHAT I KNOW IS MUSIC WITHIN HIS PURE *(SOUL)* SELF ! ! ! !
