@bf0189 I'm not sure if your comment is in response to mine, but I agree with you. It's definitely one of the greatest ballads in ALL of music. I mentioned the genre of soul music because only the true lovers of soul music really know this song. When I was a child, my mom would get so emotional about this song, and I didn't understand until I became an adult and went through my own painful experiences with love. Also, my mother was rotten to my father. Reluctantly, he finally left her. So now I understand why this song meant so much to her. She was wrong, and she lost a good man because she refused to be a good woman. I'm approaching 50, so I'm no spring chicken. I've been married twice, and I have 5 daughters. I know a thing or two about love and loss. Unfortunately, a lot of younsters don't respect or listen to old school music. Fortunately, my girls do. I exposed them to the good stuff early on. Marvin Gaye, Stephanie Mills, The Isley Brothers, Patti LaBelle, Gladys Knight and the Pips, Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, Earth, Wind, and Fire, The Ohio Players, The Emotions, Cameo, The Temptations, Parliament, Teddy Pendergrass, Luther Vandross, Betty Wright, Bobby Womack, Natalie Cole, The Chi-Lites, Al Green, The Dells, The Delphonics, Zapp, and so many more. Soul music is food to my soul, and I am fed very well. My compliments to the chefs for the most satisfying feast ever....soul music💯👏🏾🫶🏾

I'm 53. I grew up with Black Moses. I'm trying to teach these youngsta about love music.

To take Dionne's and Glens hits and completely turn them inside out, upside down, and add some hot butter to the mix you have two of the finest refined hottest "SOUL SONGS." Isaac Hayes rad-own!

As a young boy this song was very painful to hear for I knew exactly what the words meant and the length it took for the song to end. The only thing I didn't know decades later is that this song has a greater meaning now. lf you every been played a fool in a relationship you will know why it took 18:51 minutes. I will say this, When it's time to go, it's really time to go and don't look back.

Tragically, l can really relate to this song. It brings back vivid painful memories whenever I hear it. It's genius the way Hayes expresses this nightmare experience of the unrequited love of a betraying wife. But I can look back at it now with no pain. However, that experience of a broken heart literally almost killed me. It was like a bad LSD trip that I couldn't come down from that lasted for years. Thank God Almighty that time heals all such wounds. It's been about 23 years ago now. But I truly almost didn't make it. I will NEVER allow myself to go through that horror again. NEVER AGAIN! I look back at it now and I can't even fathom how I could allow myself to be so emotionally attached to a woman. My God, she was just another human being. And believe it or not I still dream about her regularly even though I no longer consciously think about her. I never had another relationship after her. Actually I'm not capable of being in love like that again. Romantic love is too scary. I was only married to her for about 7 years but knew her since we were children. We lived together for about 5 years before we got married. Goodness I loved her. Way too much. Lol. Crazy! But look, I can even laugh about it now. Something niether me or anyone else thought would ever be possible. Rest in peace Mr Isaac Hayes. You were truly a man of wisdom, compassion, empathy and understanding.

The best Rapper of All time we miss U so much. But Glad U were here, miss you!!! BLACK MOSES RIP.

I had a young lady, she was 23, I was 46! She broke my heart, after all the love shown to her. But as I look back it was really me not seeing, or ignoring the tell-tale signs. And one day I gathered the inner courage to leave. Just to think after 10 years in a USP, I would need courage....the power of love!!

My brother was a quadriplegic. After a car accident. So I went back to school to take care of him. it was 1993. He stayed in the hospital a couple of years when he got out I went back to school and took care of him. I remember he wanted to hold the joint on his lips to smoke it as to let him be a man. It was a very sad and hard times for me to get over the fact that my brother couldn't move nothing but his head. So I had my own TV show at that time. One day I was listening to this song by the time I get to Phoenix by the late Isaac Hayes and it brought back so many beautiful memories growing up in the 70s. So it took me 1 year to make this song the way I wanted it to be on VHS. That was the biggest surprise I gave to my brother. I put him in the driver's seat on TV. For one year I had drove my car with the camcorder in the dashboard through the rain the thunder lightning the snow the fall the winter the spring the summer. On the highway you could see the signs such-and-such 14 miles such-and-such 90 miles such-and-such 22 MI. And then I put those videos all together and I played by the time I get to Phoenix. I put this song to those videos and line them all up the way I wanted it for my brother. My brother loved it and actually felt like he was driving again after so many years of not being able to do nothing. I still have this VHS tape. It was a gift to my brother who passed away in 2000. I just wanted to share this with you to let you know just how much I valued the late Issac Hayes. As a matter of fact I played Shaft on TV back in the 70s. And the song was shaft. I had my daddies black hat black leather coat black pants black shoes and black cane and I played that part to the fullest. Thank you Isaac Hayes for so much great memories you will always be a legend in my heart. God bless you for so much you've done for so many people. Music and Joy. Carry on

She used me because her folks hated me . Gave her and apartment in west village nyc, tuition to nyu and stipend to leave me. I lost it and drank 2 quarts of zebrovka vodka in 12 hours.

Who is here because they know that in the old days of terrestrial radio, D.J.’s used to play the long version of this song so that they could go to the “baffroom”?Yep…absolutely true. Here’s to Washington D.C.’s WOL, WOOK, WKYS and Mr. Hot Buttered Soul Himself, Issac Hayes!!!!! And I forgive you for play the voice of Chef on South Park. You are still “a bad mother-shut-your-mouth!”. And a complicated man. R.I.P.

I was very young in the back seat of my parent's 66 Chevy caprice, speakers 🔊 next to my ears going to L.A ...the song 🎵 Did something to me. I still listen now. My brother took his life i believe over a woman maybe thier was more...However 💘 is real if you're sincere God is love

Woke up this morning from a dream, in it Isaac Hayes was singing You got me going in circles. Had to hear it again, now I am hooked on all these great songs. Back in the early 70's I would play them over and over. So much soul. This old white woman is still listening and grooving to this beautiful voice.

I remember this 70's song. Didn't like it much then. Now that we're in the midst of covid - 19, I have so much more time on my hands. I love the song now and have taken the time to listen to each individual instrument. This is probably not all the instruments but this is what I found: The violins were sangin, trumpets on point, piano resonating, organ on blast, flutes oscillating and the drums on target. The musicians and singers were truly genius back then.

♥️I was 14 when this came out, now 74, and this is as awesome now as to then‼️♥️ The goosebumps “ STILL” come and memories overflow‼️♥️👏🏽🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

This brother is deep! My brother, Isaac Hayes, is one of the brothers that I idolized as a child. From his bald head to his singing, he and Barry White, are two brothers, whose music had a profound influence on my life, especially when it came to matters of the heart. (GOD -BLESS-YOU-BOTH). R.I.P. Isaac Hayes.

Well said!! I'm sure the guy who wrote this song, Jimmy Webb loved this version the best.

Drums, Hammond organ, bass & Mr. Hayes' baritone...and Lawd have mercy...when those strings and reeds introduce themselves....you've experienced "Hot, buttered soul y'all"!

63 YEARS OLD OUR MUSIC 1960 - 1990 HAD GREAT LYRICS AND THE INSTRUMENTALS WERE AWESOME

I was blessed to see the Geniuses of Isaac Hayes live in concert numerous times. Mostly at the Apolo, and the Beacon theater in NYC, and a few years before he passed in Jackson, Mississippi. Wow! The live concerts were even at another level which will never be duplicated, R.I.P. "Genius"... you've earned it brother, you enlightening all of our lives.

This song will literally bring tear to your eyes. if you have ever been in love and got to a point that you were not going to take the mess no more but was still frighteningly in love- this is your song. when we tell our friends what happened, we are tough, but when we get by our self at night- that is when the weakness and the tears show up. ooooooo by the time I get to Phoenix...that was so sad but sometimes life will take you down that road and you have to decide " what you gonna do."

It's hard riding this (F) train listening to this track. Issac will bring them emotions out of you big time!

There are two albums that, for me, have stood the test of time;. 'Hot Buttered Soul' and 'What's going On'. I bought both albums when I was 14yrs old. I have CDs now. After 50 years, they are still, and always will be, my absolute favorites.

I loved this track even when I was a child; my Uncle used to play this all the rime! Rest in Peace Isaac Hayes.

He was a genuis in his songs

This song is so long but this is one of the best songs I have ever heard in my life

I refuse to believe that this song was "produced" in some studio somewhere. U couldn't PAY me to believe that this song didn't fall onto this earth from the heavens or wasn't delivered by some mystical being not of this world...those horns give me chills...CHILLS when i hear em ! Especially towards the end whn the song is "climaxing". By FAR, my favorite song of all time...THAT MAN'S A GENIUS !!!!!

230 am crying my eyes out... really hits home ....damn now I godda rent a U Haul!

wow I listened to this song, and really put a different spin on the one I heard from glenn cambell, this one from Issac Hayes truly tops it, and really is a classic, they don't make them like this now!

Glen Campbell wrote this. I like him singing until IH put it down.

one of Mr. Hayes's best musical endeavors... the whole album is incredible

The Greatest Storyteller of All I Grew up listening to him in Philadelphia and I still listen him in my 40's Still So Relevant I will always listen and love him R.I.P.

Listening to this, Only reminds me just how talented of an artist he really was, He had his own uniqueness, That was in my opinion, him being "BIG IKE" A Legend.

ISSAC HAYES, YOUR VOICE IS A DREAM !!!!!!!!!

Love song of the century from the Black Moses💪🏾

So so so glad I grew up with this music...

That's right, the heart can take some much. "THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE".

I live 5 mins from Isaac Hayes birth place Covington, Tn. I always luv his music. Im 35 but im old school. Best RnB music ever. Ok

The strings, the horns, the flute.... It's all so beautiful.

He took this song and made it his own, WONDERFULLY DONE!

EXCELLENCE I AM 72 YEARS OLD AND THE RIFF IS STUPENDOUS..LOVE YOU MR.HAYES

My daddy had this album. I first fell in love with this album at the age of 4 years old in 1971. I had never heard anything like this ever and at an impressionable age, this album made me so aware of all instruments being played and all arrangements. Now that I'm 49 years old, I never get tired of listening this historic album. I approach my band with the idea of being creative and thing deeper in to the meaning of performing songs from a different angle. Isaac Hayes is my ultimate musical mentor.
