I think I might agree. I neverrrrrr expected anything to hit me more in the heart from Chaka than I Feel For You, but this song recently sounded literally like the sound of being freed from a cage and into Paradise. I had never bothered to read the lyrics and I don't know French, so I never expected that the word is Chanson. Which might as well be saying Chandler's Son. I wonder which photograph she means.

I feel where you're coming from and love Luther as a fellow fan, but Luther had a career in music long before this collaboration. In 1969, he was in a musical troupe called Listen, My Brother on the first season of Sesame Street. He was a songwriter by 1973, and one of those songs is in The Wiz (Everybody Rejoice (Can You Feel A Brand New Day). He's written, produced and provided backgrounds for half of the business in the 70s, 80s, and 90s.

The recording studio to the lengthy tours and getting up for it every night is a lot of work.Hotel to city . But Chaka is one of those rare talents that remains relevant after being in the business for 40 plus years and still going and that is what it is a business.Chaka we love you and for all the joy you have given us through our ups & downs throughout the years and decades.You have touched our lives immensely .💗💗💗💗
