I agree with that too. A lot of people were calling it the best, but I think it was because of the circumstances.


It's the type of album that sounds as if it was put together by Clive Davis.I've never liked hearing rappers on a Luther Vandross album.It's not his style at all.

Yeah, I know the Busta Rhymes thing was Clive for sure.

I don't understand that Lovely Day cover and the remix. What was the purpose of it. I did like the Queen Latifah track and even the Foxy Brown track.

Luther was pretty hip to rap to hear Foxy and Olivia (remember her- "Bizounce') tell it.

disbelief so miss Luther...like a close family friend...an uncle...loved him...I got married to "Hear and Now" like so many people did during that time...my bridemaids walked down to that wonderful song...my husband and I walked down to "You and I" by Stevie Wonder...but it's "If This World Was Mine" by Cheryl L. and Luther that makes me think of my beloved husband and best friend who also died...I thank Luther for the wonderful memories his music provided, shared and created for my husband and I on our honeymoon... my sweet honey and the cruise director, worked together during out cruise honeymoon and had "The Best of Luther V" pumped into our cabin... because my honey had pre-arranged it with them, man, my honey,was a gift from God. I used to say Prince was my seductive,fun loving, wild and intropective side of me and Luther was the romantic side of me...here's to the memory of Luther and to his family and friends...he is so missed yes yes bheart bheart
