Biography

American singer born on the Lower East Side of New York on April 20, 1951. Died on July 1, 2005 at the age of 54, two years after suffering a major stroke. Vandross's first big break came in 1975, when he performed as a backing singer on [a=David Bowie]'s Young Americans album, and received a co-writer credit after his song Funky Music was adapted by Bowie to become Fascination. He was also a backing singer for [a=Bette Midler], [a=Donna Summer] and [a=Carly Simon]. He was lead singer of the group [a=Change], which had hits such as A Lover's Holiday, Searching and The Glow Of Love. In the late 1970s he was part of a singing quintet consisting former Shades of Jade members Anthony Hinton and Diane Sumler, Theresa V. Reed, and Christine Wiltshire, also called [a=Luther]. Around 1979 he also sang for the [a832797] disco project. In 1981, Luther released his debut solo album [Link]. Between 1982 and 1985, 5 albums were released, all selling over a million copies each. Over the years, he was awarded 5 platinum and 1 double platinum disc, as well as winning 8 Grammy awards.

LYRICS

They may say that we're the best thing that could be
They say it to you and they say it to me
But to each other they're insistin'
Something must be missin'
Things can't really be the way they seem to be
They don't know love the way we do
They've never loved someone like you

[Chorus:]
Lady Lady, I never let them talk about you
Lady Lady, 'cause you're mine
Lady Lady, I jump up when they talk about you
But so what, I'm gonna be your guy

You can never win
Once that stuff begins
'Cause when it starts, its just never ends
Popple start rumors about you
Say those things about you
But I won't ever doubt you
You're my best friend

Let them be how they wanna be
They can't stop you from loving me

[Chorus]

[Spoken:]
So you see, I don't care what they say, I don't care what they do
I'm the one who loves you, I'm the one you need, I'm the one ...

A symphony plays when you are near
And I love the music that I hear

[Chorus and Fade]
