We all assumed he was black...for years. There were no videos or internet

I was 8 when I heard this beautiful song 1967. I was crying my mom laughed at me. I remember it everytime I heard this song. Think of a better time in my life. Please don't apologize for crying. Am 65 and I still cry when I hear this song.

Lol you trippin

White people can sing to buddy ...I love it

Black people still think they invented runs in singing... That shit came from us celts about 700 years before the 1920s🤷‍♂️😂😂😂

This song and my God His Voice ... is like you opened a very very special bottle of wine after decades , take gently the first taste of it and can stil remember the day you harvest it on an unice day , a moment God gave his best to make it the best day of your life . This was His last Live Performance He did and all of the musicians with Him made this a very very special Moment for Him and all who will listen to ... even you . Music History for the hall of God and Love as it should be hailed . R.I.P. You are Legend and never will been forgotten

I get chills and cry every time I see this video.

Angiebie, everytime I watch and listen to this song, I tear-up too and there is just something very special about this beautiful song!

Bobby Caldwell is the male version of Tina Marie.

Everybody cries.your cries made me cry.

Hahaha they start him off in the dark lmao

😂😂😂

👍🇺🇸. God bless America

this is what you call well done song..

Listen to Grayson Hughes, “Talk it over”

Alright, 40 years ago I would have bet my viewmaster and my wacky packs that Bobby Caldwell was black. It's just funny to see this in 2024.

Just goes to show you a lot of us white guys got some soul in us, I'm 71 and I just found out that he was white, I guess we're not so different are we. Makes me smile

Idiot's I swear

Life is a trickster, tighten up.

I am biracial and my mother used to hold pot parties with all her black corkers from the post office And would go to reggae sunsplash in Jamaica every summer with her GF. She used to tell me yacht rock was the music of hippies who grew up and became yuppies. Lol Bobby Caldwell is a soulful white man for sure. I miss my mom and this is one of the songs that bring back so many good childhood memories Keep reaggaeing, jazzing and soul Wildin out mama. Love you and miss you forever. 💜🥰🙏🏾🥹🎶🎵🎤

2nd guy reminds me of big Meeks!

He grew up as a friend of Bob Marley. How could he NOT have soul?

Italian heritage.

Many a Democrat has been conceived to this song.

black , white , who cares... sit back and enjoy the music <3

@kevonstage, lol. “If you wanna see a man about a mile. You go on down see Bobby Caldwell” lol

It’s not racist to believe he was black. We can all generally detect wether someone is white or black, black people more than maybe any other race have a common sound in both males and females. It’s very interesting but truth and reality isn’t racist it’s honest

There were many White Groups in the 70s that sound black. Average White Band was real good.

Angebie i am aware that on a certain level and yet on Another greater one you are still here in some way you have never left us.

I remember, as a very young child who already cherished music and still growing up, I was never surprised or shocked by who was singing what. This 'phenomenon' has become more commonplace, I think, because of the division that has been sewn between us. There were a couple times in the past when I was pleasantly surprised that the singer was not who I thought he/she was, but it was always just an awesome discovery. Now, it's tainted. Am I wrong? Sure, it's fun to discover, but... Are we being reduced to ideological vision? Why can't we just use our God-given eyes and appreciate what is awesome? I love music. I despise politik.

For some reason, I never gave it any thought at all back then.. .the 70's were just good tunes

You have not got a clue 🤣👎

The sadness in their eyes

Bobby a legend…Bobby had soul RIP

Welcome to my generation. ❤ It's a beautiful song. Everyone I ever met loves this song. There were many times we would all say, " it just turned a whiter shade of pale."

Same here I'd always thought he looked like Bill Withers.

All these years I thought it was Al Jerro singing lol

Caucasians can sing too..

India: vibin' 7:39 - stops vibin',staits starin'. 😅

Arguably, Bobby (RIP) was a rare musical exception. Personally, I consider it unique. Although white musicians are more common in funk, soul and jazz bands, I have never encountered a white singer equivalent to Bill Whiters or Stevie Wonder. I don't think it's a racial issue, but one of cultural background.

It’s not racist at all This type of music is typically sang by Black singers. It’d be as if a black Country singer sang a song people would most likely think it’s a white singer because country is mostly sang by white singers.. But we all have soul and talent. No matter color and background.

"We of the black delegation choose Bobby Caldwell."

😄 im new

Before George Benson. So cool. A very accomplished musician. Did sessions and wrote lyrics/music for a lot of singers

Meaningful beautiful music will do that. I feel ya. I’m a 66 yr old dude. Love this as an original but this mixed with choir and orchestra is a one in a generation piece. My top 10 songs.

10:28 we all did that double take

11:11 everyone's face at the discovery!
