Very troubling. Died with so much drama and pain. Glad his children are fighting to preserve his legacy though. sad

I agree. God bless his children. I felt for Barry, Jr. and Sherera when they talked about their father's final months. Every time I watch that segment I'm almost reduced to tears though I just shake my head and sigh. cry disbelief That man was about love and like his son said, the one thing he wanted in life, he was forced out of it by fools.

Yeah his Biography episode is one to watch. Shame that he had to go through that. He was about love his entire life and had to be reduced by hate and greed. They killed him.

Oh no!! boxed No disrespect to Barry White or his version. It's just I've heard Volare so, so, so many times that it kind of grates on me. He definitely changed it up in a good/unique way, though, unlike most singers.

I wonder if Barry was fluent in other languages, explains why he remained so globally popular for so long...
