James Ingram "I don't have the heart"






This song is real life LOL. Wouldn't initially think I'd directly relate to the lyrics, but I can, or could. Nice song anyway, and James sounds great on it, even if it could be confused with a Peabo Byson song.

I like it when the drums, guitar and choir come in at the end. Glorious MOR LOL.

I think it's a little hard 2 be a Peabo Bryson tune, but it was always a fav off this album next 2 "So Fine"

This song definitely applies to my real life. Twice. sigh

I played that song the last time I needed to get over someone. It's almost painful listening to it but there is so much raw emotion and truth in that song.

Thats cool. As I mentioned, I can relate to it aswell. Its a pretty melody that would probably sound nice on piano.

What do you think of There's No Easy Way, which is along the same lines?

I dont own it. The only Ingram album I own is "it's real", which of course includes "I dont have the heart". Wouldn't mind trying out more of his albums one day, but sorry I cant answer you.

It's groovy. Take a listen to the song on youtube. I think you'll dig it.

I like the original, by Stacey Lattisaw better.

Her version was actually done a few months before his, and her version is rare. I have it in my collection somewhere. To me her's is allot more heart tugging.

Its hard to find the original on youtube. So many karaoke versions LOL. From what I can make out from the home made versions, it does indeed, paint a similar picture to "i dont have the heart". I also noticed it came out earlier. Sounds good actually. I just need to hear the original LOL.
