| HipShooter (Uddevalla) | Posted: Dec 12, 2012 - 02:47 This is great! Voice, Lyrics, Horns - but hear that organ. Playing that instrument takes more than a run-o-the-mill pianist. |

| joelbb | Posted: Nov 26, 2012 - 00:40 the Rev. Al was, is and shall forever be one soulful mother. |

| window (Richmond, VA) | Posted: Aug 08, 2012 - 08:44 Always surprised to hear this in the rotation. Seems like there are others Al Green songs that would fit in better with the RP vibe, IMO. But being a big fan of his, I'm not going to complain about hearing anything by him! |
| philbertr (Roch New York) | Posted: Aug 08, 2012 - 08:30 I rated this a 9 a long time ago...but now just listening closely to the lyrics: —> 10 |
| nancyt (NC) | Posted: Jun 09, 2012 - 09:56 Altho a different version and excellent version is Love and Happiness by Amazing Rhythm Aces.. |
| Propayne (Richmond VA) | Posted: Feb 29, 2012 - 05:51 wonderful |
| lemmoth (NYC) | Posted: Jan 31, 2012 - 08:20 Did anyone catch President Obama's version of Let's Stay Together? He is pretty good. I know I'll be voting for him. |
| JBRare (On a beach with a frosty beverage) | Posted: Jan 31, 2012 - 08:16 He's playing Jazz Fest again this year. Can't wait to see him! |

| marcizaz (Phoenix) | Posted: Apr 05, 2011 - 22:08 First Bill gives us the doctor, then two men who call themselves Jesus & now redemption...love this song. No wonder, it was my ring tone when ring tones were cool! |
| floydoftherocks (Frisco) | Posted: Mar 18, 2011 - 17:38 this is sooooooooo tired & abused as a commercial jingle.. could definitely be set aside & revived in 5-10 years. |
