Most people think he’s black and this song is very popular in the older black community.

... there is a reason the album cover had him in silhouette. His record company was afraid that if the soul & R&B radio stations knew that he was white, they would not play his songs. They let his voice bring them into his world, and THEN let them know that he was white. It worked. The song became a massive hit.

It's incredible how much pop music that rap and hip hop have sampled. They've taken tons of music from artists like Blondie, Bruce Hornsby, the Bee Gees, Michael McDonald, Bobby Caldwell...the list goes on.

Check out the Bobby Caldwell song called “Open Your Eyes” and you might recognize it at the 1:04 mark. That part is the hook on a famous rap song from 2000. Excellent song btw.

Don't apologize. Literally everyone thought he was black if they just heard the song. I knew he was white because I'm old, lol. I was a kid in the 80s and my mom played this a lot and so did the radio. He just passed away recently 😢 and we lost an incredible talent. He plays multiple instruments and that voice speaks for itself. RIP 🕊 ♥ 🙏

Was crazy is that he ended up being a one hit wonder. And let me say this also if y'all are a couple with your family have gatherings hosted by like aunties and uncles go to them you will hear all kinds of music that you probably would never get anywhere else I do that with my family members all the time my younger one try to expose them to music because some of the music now just doesn't have what our music in the '60s '70s and especially '80s had. And me being a DJ retired but still a DJ
