I am 45 and tears comes to my eyes hearing this song. Rip CICELY TYSON

Sooooooo touching. The older I get the more touching...for the sake of children in need, unexpected love, family, wholeness..the song just throws it over the top. I can't even keep count with how many times I have cried over this movie, and laughed. Since my career and life is centered around children, in addition to the fact that I am a musician, this just moves me beyond words, each and every time..bless you all! Live, Laugh, LOVE!

i love this song takes you back to a time when things were simple

Yo this song along with Quincy Jones' "Tomorrow" are my favorite child inspirational songs. Love those 2 songs

I love this song. TEARS

I don't know why I like this song it reminds me of my childhood

I used to watch this all the time when I was growing up. It still is one of the BEST movies that has been made (as well as the song).

I still am amazed that Cicely Tyson was 56 years old when this movie was released. Richard was only 39.

Great and warm memories ! This got me choked up a bit

My favorite part of Bustin Loose was the theme song. It rocks!

Best scene in the movie. This scene can make even the hardest, toughest man like me have a heart warming feeling! Lol...great end to a classic movie, and to have Roberta Flack's Children song to end the movie....what more can you ask for?

"Children's Song"

Same here! This brought a tear to my eye. My sister and I loved (and still) this movie and this song. I miss those days!

I remember this movie growing up great memories watching this

I only caught the end of this movie when the credits were rolling and the song automatically warmed my heart but saddened me too and made me feel like something was missing in my life.

this song is so touching i feel like layn down in a meadow wit all of my friends holding hands and closing eyes

I love this movie! Richard should've won something for his performance and the song is beautiful!

I actually cried to just at my babies and see their innocence... thank you

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS MOVIE EVEN THE MUSIC R.I.P.RICHARD PRYOR!!!!!!!!

Love this movie and love Richard Pryor

I LOVED THIS MOVIE AS A CHILD!!!

This is a beautiful song I've been humming and singing for years and it's recently being shown all over again, I always loved it the the slow song too!!!! Sing it and praise God for the gift of song!!! Hec d'z baby!!

Reminds me of my childhood in New York watching it with my dad! Gonna buy the dvd for him! ❤️❤️❤️

Love this movie! Had the honor of going to the premiere in NYC. The Executive Producer is the late great William Greaves and his nephew a classmate of mine. He got us tickets and it was so much fun! I saw so many celebrities in the audience including Morgan Freeman. He looked so debonair. We even got to visit Mr. Greaves fancy Manhattan apartment after the show. This song stayed in my head all night. Loved this song!

i love this song,it takes me back when i was a kid

Love this movie especially the ending. Two legends gone but never forgotten. Rest in peace to both Richard Pryor and Cicely Tyson. Love the ending song as well. They don’t make movies like this anymore.. Glad my mom introduced me to these types of movies

2020 and the ending still makes me cry 😢

0:45 Fun Fact: Cicely Tyson was 56 when this movie was shot in 1980. She aged like fine wine. Just passed away this year at 96

This song is cool.I used to rewind the tape over and over just to hear it... Trivia Fact about this song: One of the little kids you hear singing this song is Tisha Campbell...Roberta Flack used to have a syndicated jazz morning show on the radio in the 90's and Tisha was out promoting a movie(Sprung,I think) and the show Martin..Roberta and her started talking about working together on this song back in the day and how it was one of the first things she ever did as a child talent.

There are a lot of people like me who were 7 or 8 years old when they first saw this movie and have had this music in their heart ever since. It reminds me of all the things I loved about being a kid

I was 5 when it came out

I cry my eyes out everytime I hear this song when I was a kid and I still today at age 41 I still cry my eyes out I really really love this song

This song just feels like the spirit of a child. Before we learn about black, white, rich, poor, etc. Just a fun joy!

This song puts a smile on my face and a tear my eye

@bititwine Roberta Flack, 1981, Children's Song, MCA record label. Bless you, Live, Laugh, Love! smiling...

Those kids and Vivian Perry gave Joe Braxton a new lease on life.

Easily the most uplifting closing music of any film. The funky breakdown is such a great contrast to the melodic lyrical sections. Sometimes I still sit down at the keyboard and jam on the theme.

Yup, y’all not the only ones. I’m 6’ 1” 253 pounds and this song makes me want to cry too. I love the movie and I love the song. Black people really know how to create beautiful art! Lyrics: Open your eyes to your feelings Show me that you care Just like the stars In The heavens G_d (Yah) is everywhere Open your eyes to your feelings Your heart will let you see And let me say that I love you G_d (Yah) bless you and me

I can’t be the only one who truly misses Richard Pryor Rest Easy Rich

My all time favorite movie everytime I heard it was coming on I would run to the TV. But when I miss it I got mad ass hell. I really love this movie and song . RIP MY BOY RICHARD PRYOR I LOVE YOU MAN

same here. nostalgia is setting in

The song makes me emotional it takes u back to those innocent days when everything was ok, if reflects on when i was young in grade school.

The gist of this song from the "Bustin' Loose "Soundtrack with Roberta Flack is so reminiscent of Stevie Wonder's 'Do i Do.' May award-winning actress Cicely Tyson forever Rest in Peace. 😢

best Richard Pryor movie

This song makes me cry because of the harmony the kids have while singing it. I remember watching it down to my aunts house and it just triggers emotions because she is no longer here.

Not gonna lie, this made me cry. Childhood was too short!

51 years old i love this movie and hear the song without thinking about my pops..I miss you daddy so much...

me too i was 5y yrs old when my mom took me to see this movie and to this day i will listen to the whole song

Great film. Great song....

I was 25 when Bustin Loose came out love this song

@SonofVelas1 Man, the part where the pyro is tellin' his story to Joe....THAT was a very emotional scene. I actually felt bad for that kid. lol

I tried to look them up. One of them, Tami Luchow (Linda) has apparently become a strong advocate for the disabled.

The song during the end credits makes me tear up. I’m weird. 😭😊

I love the song. But the part that always makes me laugh is when he says "go back home" then reaches his hand out like gimme 5 and Richard Pryor just dips as fast as possible leaving him hanging 😆

I really enjoy this song.. Thank you for posting....

I love this song too

Memories! RIP Queen Cicely!!

R.I.P to Richard pryor and cicely Tyson.

Did you guys know that ALPHONSO ALEXANDER (who played Martin) is the older brother of ERICA ALEXANDER (Cosby Show and LIVING SINGLE)? They are from Philly, and back in 1980-81, everyone thought HE was gonna be the big star.

RICHARD PRYOR WAS GREAT!

I use this song as the closing song of one of my jazz CDs

This give me so many memories 😢

Great song.

Love that movie today
