The accident caused him to lose some of the power in his voice but like he said he was able to maximize what he has. His grace can never be taken

*Damn to be in a wheel chair and paralyzed still doing what you love...he was a powerful man..so inspiring*

IT'S 2019 AND AIN'T NOBODY TOUCHING HIS VOCALS PERIOD!!!

sitting in a wheelchair, says he's limited and still don't need auto tune. now that's talent

One of greatest male singers of all time

You can see the hurt in his eyes fr he was a strong man R.I.P. Teddy

Even though he went through a Car accident he didn’t let that stop his life . He is an inspiration I freakin cried when he sang Love TKO he didn’t get bitter, resentful, or angry . He was so brave Teddy opened my eyes. Continuously breaking down Barriers and glass cielings. God Bless you Teddy Pendergrass!!!

rest in peace Teddy Pendergrass we lost a legend

Teddy was the first artist my husband and I saw together. We had just met in 1980 we've now been Married 33 years. Teddy is our man xx

Here it is 2022 and some of the recording artist of today can't touch his vocals from a wheelchair.🔥RIP! Teddy Pendergrass and his mother who recently passed at 103yrs!

I don't know how many of you actually know how hard it is to actually sing out while sitting down. Sometimes I have to move my legs or my hands to belt when I'm sitting😭😭 this man is just sitting there and singing like this😭 he's amazing

He has such a beautiful soul. The chair did not limit him. His voice was still beautiful and powerful. Rest in Peace, Teddy Pendergrass. #Legend 🙏🏻

There will never be another “Teddy” he was untouchable. We need music like this. Now that was a man who was blessed

It’s just so heartbreaking seeing Teddy like this despite how utterly inspiring and courageous he was. He was the best of all time. Such a gentleman with beautiful soul. ❤️

Even with paralyzed vocals, he sings better than all these young acts out here today

He’s so eloquent and open, compared to a lot of singers today. I could just listen to him speak, let alone sing 😍😍 LORD 👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽

I wish he was still with us.

Handsome handsome man. Accident was such a sad thing. God bless that man! Hope he's at eternal peace now.

2023 And Still listening to this Great Legend !! His voice STILL Amazing after many yrs. & in his Condition. He’s such an Inspiration!! 🔥❤️🔥❤️

What kind of courage does this man have ? Thank you Teddy , you are the best !

Handsome and talented

Jennifer Hudson was the one who mentioned this guy on The Voice. So thank you, J. Hud, for introducing this great singer to me.

There was no better voice in all of R&B. Miss his singing.

Such a beautiful person inside and out. He's singing with the angels now, and still miss that voice every day.

This mans smile and music brings joy to my heart! I appreciate growing up to his music

A wheelchair helps you get around,that's it. His music lives and he lives through his music. Awesome.

I just loved the emotion of the stylistic way Teddy sang his songs. I cry when I hear him sing I know one day I will see him in heaven no wheel chair just a young Teddy

Teddy was fine! He was definitely a beautiful Black man.

What a voice, that chair will never take that beautiful voice away ... Luv Teddy

His music is played everyday on the radio here in Philadelphia 2024

He looks fine too me..beautiful skin.

You sound greater than ever Teddy. You are a giant inspiration to all of us disabled people.

North Italy - Last night of August 2020 - I am 24 and found my favourite singer. Never heard of him before tonight. Whitney Houston took me here via KZfaq. He was an amazing singer :-)

God how I loved this man. I went to one of his concerts about 1982, and when he came out on stage me and about 30 other young women ran to the foot of the stage, and I made sure I was in the front. I don't know his height, 6ft+, but he was tall and elegant, like a Cadillac, and sang songs that made you melt. I don't know if there is a category of King of Love songs, but he sure would have won. Even hearing him here on this video still brought chills to me. He still had it. I was devastated when I heard of his car accident, and very sad of his passing. Thank you for this video, because I hadn't seen or heard much about how his life was going after his accident. I do feel that he had gotten his life together, that God had been working with him, to face his fears, and it had humbled him. I guess all I can say is I appreciate the season of his life, that he brought love to us, and anyone who gives love, can only go where the God of love, resides.✌❤Teddy

We still missing you teddy even tho you gone u still here 😊

Teddy was the man! He proved that life is a song worth singing, such an inspiration on so many levels

He was and is my all time favorite. His eyes look so sad he went through hell. RIP Teddy. Why is it the best always die so young?

The amount of passion and will he has is impressive

I'm amazed about the way that Teddy spoke. A lot of singers sing, but when they do interviews, you soon find out that they can't speak well. Teddy was so eloquent and intelligent. When you realize where he grew up, it's even more amazing. Out of the pits of Philadelphia this amazing man grew into an amazing person. Even more amazing is the fact that he came back from a place that few of us could ever come back from. He was on his way to reaching even higher goals; he was a sex symbol; he was funny and full of life; he was a good son. I'm not sure I would be able to get back even 1% of what he did after such a devastating accident. Curtis Mayfield is another soldier. Teddy was a great man before his accident, and an even greater man after. I'm so sorry we didn't have him for a longer time. I can't think of another singer today who has a voice as provoking as Teddy's.

RIP Teddy!!! You was that dude!!! There will never be another and he was a killer drummer!!!!!!!!!

That was truly heart-warmimg. The paralysis prevents him from singing all the way "from his stomach" like great singers like himself, but he still sounded great.

Even while in his chair. He still sounded great. What an inspiration. ❤❤❤ RIP. Teddy Pendergrass. ❤💔🙏🏻

The world came to a standstill shortly thereafter. RIP to one of the greatest baritones in history. Even here with the loss of some breath depth, his tone and delivery is MAGESTIC! Modern singers can only wish to get here.Teddy is MASTER.

One of the greatest recording artists of ALL time, a true profile of courage.

Baby all that matters is that mind and voice up there. Even though he’s sitting, he still stands tall.

That voice. He's singing to the angels right now. Miss you Teddy.

2019 I watched with tears in my eyes,love your music

When Teddy Pendergrass passed away I remember crying for a week playing his music over and over. The remix come on go with me 😥

This performance brought tears to my eyes, rip Teddy.

the most powerful voice of all time rip brother

Classiest voice in the history of music.. will always love Teddy 🧸 ❤️

Listen and Learn y'all ... You are too unique Teddy.... All we see is you .... All we hear is your heavenly voice....You did it and we are still feeling it.... You knocked us out with your lovely voice... T.K.O. style....Rest in Power Great African Elder .. yep

😢This really breaks my heart💔💔💔

No such thing as a "disability" to the strong and determined...he proved it! We can continue with the gifts God gave us..no matter. As an amputee..I know this! A great man..greater singer and true inspiration to all. The so called "singers" today... Pay attention to his skill set! Damn...miss this dude❤

Making my eyes sweat, watching this graceful man work. I didn't make it to the end without blurring up.

THE POWER THIS MAN HAS IS UNREAL , MISS HIS MUSIC

My friends Keiko and Glen and I used to catch Teddy whenever he performed in Philly--our hometown and his! He would also patronize other local acts. We knew him well enough to sit with him when he was there to catch someone else's act like the O'Jays or Gil Scott Heron. There are no words to describe his magnetism, not to mention the distinctive voice. He was so charismatic and truly genuine and down to earth. A fun person to be with: kind, generous, loving. Rest In Power, Teddy.

Nice looking and talented man. I admire how he seemed to handle his disability with grace throughout. A humble soldier. He is with his Master now. We miss you Teddy.

I was a teenager during his great solo career. SO sad we lost a great deal of talent recently and past.

Very painful to watch,Teddy was a beast.

He was such an exceptional man. I am speechless. As a performer, he was something. I watched the documentary, he caught my breath away. I have never set my eyes on such a gorgeus man. He has all his charisma left. I just fell in love with his soul when I saw the film. His singing was unbelievable, he truly was the black Elvis.

STILL MISSING YOU BUDDY.

You just cant stop that show stopping voice. TP your the man

Simply the greatest male vocalist ever. There will never be a voice like this again

My heart is breaking watching this, you are such a beautiful and talented man, i have loved you since the 70s and i will keep on loving you and your music, why did this have to happen to you Teddy? RIP 😢❤😗

👑Still King Teddy👑 wheelchair or no wheelchair...handicap or no handicap! God rest his soul.🙏🏽

One of my favorite artists

OMG! He sound so good.

Such sad loss,Still loving the music.

HE STILL HAS IT / GREAT COME BACK !!!

What a heck man? This dude’s ability to sing is a gift.

Still makes me sad to hear him in that wheelchair compared to when he could stand. He still killed it and is a lot better than most singers today. RIP Teddy

Nothing can stop true soul genius like this man.

He was such a wonderful man. I’ve always felt encouragement when I watched his interviews.

My favorite song I listen to this when Im mad..happy..sad..things going right things goin wrong whtever this my song love me sum teddy and he sounds just as good during this performance voice just smooth as silk...

Teddy Pendergrass still look good!!! His voice is still amazing!!! RIP Mr. Pendergrass.

This live version sounds beautiful. RIP to a real legend

Beautiful man. In my opinion he sang the greatest song ever on that wheel chair: In My Time.

Aw this made me sad a little bit

Thank you Teddy Pendergrass for your music. Your music has helped me overcome heart aches.

My God was I in love with this man. Still love him. He was the best, sexy and oh that voice! We lost one of the greatest, along with Sam Cooke, MJ, Marvin, The O'Jays, Prince. Now those were true artists, which we will never probably see in our lifetime. These days everything is so phony and is a big spectacular production. These men did not need that they just stood on stage and sang their hearts out.

I'm 15 and teddy inspires me so much because i grew up kind of rough and my life took a lot of turns he empowers me and inspures me to grow into a man. being a black man in america isnt easy and with disabilities it makes the adversaty worse. and im anemic, he's like my pops ;) i miss teddy and i love him and his beautiful heart🤛🏽🤞🏽👈🏽

This makes me tear up because when Teddy died it was a major loss to everyone who enjoyed his music and for anyone who knew him. He expressed a deep desire to get back into the studio and record again. Gone too soon. 😥😪

Your still the man. All ur songs brings back memories 80s

We miss you Teddy Pendergrass. Your music will live on God bless you bro 2019? 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

R.I.P. Teddy....you made Philly Proud!!!

He still sounds amazing RIP teddy pendergrass

His inner light is shining through the rooftops of humanity. Bless his soul and his spirit. I love you, Teddy.

Still one of the best voices in history. Rip Teddy ❤️

2022 RESPECT TO THE SWAG MAN. STILL HAD IT MR TP. REST IN PARADISE KING. 👑💐🙏🏽😘 THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ❤

He made us proud coming from his accident, and performing like he never left. Sing in Heaven Teddy. Much love💞

Teddy taught me as a singer to be raw and natural and sing from your heart. Feel the song. I embrace it.

Teddy was the beacon of a beautiful spirit who stayed positive…still had a powerful voice R.I.P… always a fan!

I wish I could go back in time and reverse the tragic event that led to this Great man's suffering... Teddy you are the Greatest ... Rest in Honor💪🏿

He was bopping! I love it! He is still mastering his craft in your face! ❤🖤💚RIP King Teddy!

How can you thumbs down this performance or Teddy PERIODt? 🤔🤷🏾‍♂️
