"For You" appreciation The first track on his first album. Multi-track a capella vocals. Introducing himself to the world with a touching message + showing off his vocal skills. Genius. . All of this and more is for you With love, sincerity and deepest care My life with you I share "The password is what." |

thats how you start a recording career... not enough superlatives to describe this song or album...everytime i play this album, its a spiritual experience...i get the Holy Ghost right about when the guitar solo seques into the synth solo as the song begins to finish up, on "My Love Is Forever" |

Great underrated record. Takes me back to the days of buying "Right On!" magazine and wondering who the hell this strange, Dwayne Nelson-Sylvers big afro wearing, no smiling dude was on the cover. | |

I love this song, the beginning layering up to "my life with you" is beautiful!  | |

There's a few different, I guess you could call them work-in-progress versions of 'For You' too, but I think the officially released version on 'For You' is the best version. | |

Good input, peeps. I didn't think I was the only one. "The password is what." |

This is the song that made me fall in love with him. And it has lasted over 30 years. Because of their half-baked mistakes, we get ice cream, no cake; all lies, no truth; is it fair to Kill the YOUTH ~~ Party Up | |

. Talk about 'less is more'... Those three lines speak volumes, and the delivery is phenomenal. A diehard fan can read that almost like a metaphor for the journey that has been coming to know and love his music--and to a degree, the man himself, as he has made good on his words, sharing his life with his fans through his music. | |
