That's my daddy on sax and conducting the band. #PlayDaddy I miss you so much!

I’m not even missing anybody and sitting here in my feelings listening to this man SANG his heart out.

The guy hitting those high notes deserve some praise also.

Is Anyone Out There Still Listening To This Touching Song ?

Can we just applaud Lloyd Parks for what he did in the beginning with tenor and falsetto, those high notes from him was everything too, Teddy’s phrasing and timing is unbelievable. His voice so soulful, he sang his face off on this record which it makes it so timeless.

I don't care if that man was bald or had a blond wig, lol.He sang the hell out of that, wow! I know I'd come running back, hahaha. We miss you, TEDDY!

That man doing the falsetto part really makes and carries the song. Of course Teddy's emotional delivery is heart wrenching, but when that falsetto part comes in on top, it just pierces your heart ❤️.

Teddy sang his face off on this record. It's makes it timeless.

Live vocals better than studio, that’s rare af. Thank you for everything teddy, and the whole bluenotes band

THIS MAKES ME PROUD TO BE BLACK AMERICAN 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 what others can't duplicate this. Give it to the world Teddy and the blue notes 🎶. Still listening 2022🧐🇺🇸

dude all the way to the left is killing that falsetto. TP always did his thing. i love the words to this song and the falsetto is mind blowing. i appreciate greatness.

Teddy was the most soulful singer that ever lived he came straight from the heart

Teddy's phrasing and timing is unbelievable. His voice is otherworldly. How do you sing it live, probably without the best monitors, better than the album version? The album version was already amazing!

That wig is the real star of the show !!!

When he's walking away from the mic at the end and still singing.. my gawd

This was real soul singing, when music had meaning. Straight from the heart.

Stan Lathan was literally everywhere in the 70s, 80s and beyond. This clip is historical and immediately transports me back in the day to my aunt's house in Philly at her house parties listening to WDAS. It all seemed so simple then.

That falsetto at the beginning my Lord 💙 it hit so hard then Teddy coming in right after... Lawd geesus. This will forever be a classic 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

I've always said the 70's was the greatest decade of music. But that perm is heavy.

I remember hearing this song when I was a kid and even then it caught my attention. And now that I’m grown I I appreciate how great they sound and how cool Teddy really is and was his voice is so unique and soulful you can’t help but admire. He rocked a perm and still would’ve left the show with anyone’s girlfriend

This is why I stay in my feelings you can’t possibly think you can grow up on pure soul music like this and be able to just accept anything! Teddy P who vibe is like pulling at my heart strings

If this does not send a grown man to his knees, nothing will. Good lord I miss her... 20 something years I still miss her... you can look in my eyes and see, that a great big man like me has been crying... I still love you Mich... with all my heart and soul...

Lloyd Parks tenor still knocks me out to this day! he is one very talented gentleman and the "last" original Blue Note standing!

That performance was outrageous. Teddy and the rest of the boys with their outstanding take on one of the best philly songs of all time.

i thank my mom for puttin me on to this type of music..i dont know many 22 year olds can appreciate this song

Remember when I was in high school.. my sophomore year . Me and my girl were going through some things and I sent her this video. And she sent me a text back telling me... "Why you sent me this for"?...... That's when I knew she wasn't the right one lmfaooooo 😂😂😂😂😂😂

This. Song. Means. A lot. To. Many. Of. People. Around. The. World. It. Touch. So. Many. Many. Heart ♥️💜💖♥️💜💜🥰🌼🌸🌺💖💖💜

The message in this song is a perpetual message for every man who ever loss the love he once had!

This is art in its purest form

Born in 91 and this still my era

One of the greatest balladeers of all our time!

TP RIP. He was feeling this song! He didn't sing this song, he SAAAANG dat song!

This is absolutely the greatest record ever recorded!!!!!!!

No one mentioned the smooth dances moves of the background singer. Loved how they are in sync with the cross over walk.

Nobody singing like this anymore..I was blessed to have grown up to music that meant something.

Oh my god…this is everything. Llyod Parks and that magnificent falsetto. And lawd…Teddy P and his masterful ad libs as well as superb singing voice. Absolutely amazing.

I can't thank everyone enough for uploading this phenomenal performance thats stood the test of time again and again and again!

Teddy Pendergrass and K C of Jodici are two powerful soul singers. Rest in peace, Teddy.

2024 this is a timeless masterpiece!

Man, Music like this just dont exist any more. They put so much passion in to every note that I think they drained the world .

I had an aunt that was such a huge fan of TP. Sadly beast cancer took her from us, but while she sick my mother (her sister) would always play TP when she was sick from treatments and feeling down. This stuck with everyone in the family and TP soon came to represent my aunt and her life. She left behind two sons who came to live with us after she was gone and we grew up like brothers. When TP died it hit all of us like a family member was killed. When we get together now TP is always in heavy rotation. Few years ago I was struck down cold with depression and TP would always be a form of comfort for me. My love for TP is more than an artist, but rock on soft ground - healing for a sick heart - warmth for a cold world - my aunt. Thank you for the post.

This song makes me feel like a widower and I ain’t never been married. 😭😭😭

Teddy P.. I am young but I can relate to all of your songs. Sing Teddy P. 🕊️🕊️🕊️

I'm only 31 and I feel every word of this song I been their !!!!!!!!

What a great singer and that voice was one of a kind. That God given talent was so beautiful and captivating.

The way this man just Saaaannnnggggg his face off is unmatched omg I'm literally in awe at his vocal ability. Tebby P. was one of the greatest ever ♡

I bought "The Sound of Philadelphia" box set way back in 1999 when I was getting pretty bored with hip-hop. I heard THIS song and it just hit way different. The whole box set is still something special.

That man sung the absolute hell out of that song there was not one more note he could sing 🎤🌹🥀🕊

He 'ant playing with yahll, cant you see he miss this damn woman!? This man singing the hell outta this song.

That wig may be jacked, but the voice is kickin ass all up in there!! :)

I swear to God that I don't like many live songs but this is the best one yet in my opinion

i was born in the 70's nd boy o boy I loved that era of music...soulful music from the heart wasn't about sex killing nd drugs like now.... I miss it😔😔😔😔

That's true performance.....you can see & hear the emotions in his voice and the instruments are so crisp.....wish i was on stage singing or just in the audience......dam good performance !!!

To this day I play this song every few weeks!!! I LOVE this live version I want it on vinyl so bad! He would've had me back at the first "Oh" before he started singing. Teddy was it!!

Love Lloyd's voice

Man I wish music would come back with real talent

That Voice is everything. Real talent

The greatest beginning of any song, Teddy had to represent after such a tremendous start, live and recorded versions. 6/23/22...

I showed this to my 60+ year old dad and he said "When TF Teddy P have straight hair" 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 yooooo I'm literally in here dying laughing

One of the best songs ever i love it 😢😢😢❤❤

This song is a reminder to let women know WE HURT TOO when our hearts get broken. As far as Teddy P .. the voice, the sweat, the begging. No words to describe the great, one-and-only, irreplaceable Teddy Pendergrass!

One of my favourite songs. Killer vocals - slew dem!!!

Nobody could ever come close to teddy p he was the whole truth and nothing but the truth

R.I.P to my aunt Mae she put me and my cousin blu on this song when we were teenagers…I still cry reminiscing bout them good days I love and miss u so much aunt Mae thank u 🙏🏿

That's one heavy tune , the brilliance of it is you can picture what Teddy is signing about ...Fantastic

Ladies if you've ever seen Teddy P. in concert, baby he was a force to reckon with! I loved his singing, I miss you Teddy! ❤❤❤

This song describes how I feel 2yrs after my divorce. The pain eases, but it never goes away...never

I’m sitting here listening to this song I miss you teddy’s Pendergast sang and pour his heart this song is amazing this song will live on and on, my respect and condolences to his family 💜🥀💐

HELL I’m a man and DAM NEAR WENT HOME TO HIM AFTER HEARING THIS LIVE VERSION!!!😂

I wish I had his voice.

Still. Sound. Good. Even. Better. 2024 ❤❤❤❤

I need a man that looks and has the same demeanor as this lovely man, please lord.

When music was still music. Thanks to everyone involved in making this song. This is one of the best songs ever made.

Nobody appreciates this mans talent more than me... But that perm!!

Awesome expressive lead work, as always, by Teddy, superb harmonies by Harold and the two backing vocalists with him, and FANTASTIC falsetto high notes by Lloyd Parks for icing on this cake!! No electronic "fixery" needed. The real deal from real talent!!

I'm going through a rough patch in my relationship i just had to come here for old times sake.

This is pure. Miss you Teddy.... You make me feel all kinds of feels......

MY PILLOW WET WITH TEAR'S

I miss my old lady who died many years ago but it feels like yesterday.

This is a Masterpiece.

Back when music was music......this man had a generational voice. RIP and God Bless You Teddy Pendergrass.

2018! This song still gives me goosebumps!

Never knew that was Teddy til today seeing video for the first time that man was a sangn machine

Teddy May be gone but his music but sure will live on and on forever in our hearts sure being miss by many he gone not forgotten may he rips💜💐🥀

La verdad que está música nos transporta a una altura increíble , de Venezuela ,que recuerdos

The band did the damn thang!

The only music I will listen to and I’m 29 this is real music!

This makes me cry tears of joy for my Grandma

THIS SHOW "SOUL!" was on PBS every week and this is where we learned about HAROLD MELVIN AND THE BLUE NOTES and so many other great performers. thank you Ellis Haislip!

These masculine women today will never be missed like the women in the past

This is the best version, I love this song. This Teddy best performance!

Beautiful song 🎵 ❤️ love it 😊

That begin hits something different. Electric gives me chills!

I miss REAL R&B!

this is what true pain looks and sounds like in a song. You don't know what love is if you ain't never been hurt like this.

TP vocals were amazing. What a voice.

Saannngg Teddy! Sweatin' that perm out!!

“And a greaaaat big man like me has been cryyyyyin... cryin.”

I wasn't in this era but damn he song that song. I felt that shit. I'm like here I go baby. You don't have to look no more.

That was the jam in 1973 I remember when, sure does bring back memories. Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes was one of the hottest groups out there because they had the soul to bring your hot and your feelings to your knees makes my heart good feel good to hear them tonight that music to hear now is so refreshing because that's when music was music
