Luther's "Power Of Love"

Did any1 on here like this song? I mean, I heart other Luther songs such as "Forever, for always, for love" & "For you to love"&that song that starts off with "Long ago..." &...God, there's so many others that I cant think of right now but I really liked this song...now, I think it was better than "Love Power" which followed right after it.
Thoughts? Critics? Agreements?

it was cool for 1991.I think it was His Last Decent Pop Track IMHO Before He went after the Mighty POP Number 1 Dream Song that has still not come to pass.back in the 80's Luther was a Monster.Prolific&Productive in a Healthy Way but the past 11 Years He has been dropping a Couple Good Tracks per Album&then alot of Filler in that Regard He Reminded Me of Prince.two Jams&then alot of Filler.but those Two Jams were always tight.I dig Luther in the 80's easily but this Song was cool as was the Album.but after this Album He got to Predictable for my tastes&He hasn't knocked my Ears out for the Longest time.give Me "A House is Not a Home"

Luther was the shit when he was with bass playa Marcus Miller(don't know they're still 2ghether) ahhh how I miss the 80's Luther,,,now that was my man ya'll nod.

There's a song from his last LP that I really love its called "Are You There (With Another Guy)" it shoulda been released instead of his crappy new songs.

Who could 4get "Never Too Much", "She's a super lady", "The Power Of Love(Dance Remix)" and my all time fave Quincy produced dreamy jam "I"m gonna miss you in the morning" with Patti Austin.

The best thing about Luther's proudction is the vocal arrangments,,he's the tightes backround vocal arranger of all times.

He's recroding a duet with Beyonce 4 her upcoming LP. I can't wait 2 hear that.

I used to love Luther, buying every CD on the day of release. But then he did that AWFUL covers album in the early 90's, which as far as I'm concerned turned him into Michael Bolton, and they wouldn't stop playing tracks from it on the radio at work, and he lost one fan right then.

He got caught up in Pop Music Politics&fell into a Bad Trap at chasing something He couldn't ever get a Number 1 Pop Single.
