It’s 2024 and I’m still listening to a God given talent. Mr Maitreya, when you sing, it’s as if you’re singing to each individual listener only. You pour your truth into your lyrics. You take us to a place that feels so pure and gentle, each time you sing a song, it’s as if it’s your first time. You are a very gentle & humble soul. It is a privilege to see a glimpse of your angelic talent. Your talent has already transcended this world. May you continue in life, sharing your once-in-a lifetime talent. Your gifts that you possess comes from deep within your soul, from your life experiences that lets us become a tiny part of your story thru song. Many blessings to you and your family. Thank You a million times over.

Yes indeed

This man is up there with Stevie Wonder , Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Prince, Ronald Isley, Wilson Picket, James Brown, Al Green, and Ray Charles, BUT , he never gets the respect and praise he so rightly deserves - an amazing talent.

This song should have been a hit in the USA as well as every where else. This voice can't be denied

2024 and im here! The one & only TTD . Sananda! 💃🪭💃

One of the sexiest men in the world...One of the greatest entertainers of all time ❤

Wonderful....Whether it's Terence Trent D'arby or Sananda Maitreya, I'm an unconditional fan, I love the artist so much.❤

I’m still here. I’ll always be here. With others who get it. Much love, all ♥️

Was lucky to see him in Paris years ago, what a beautiful soul!!

Man, I was not ready for this. I was told to look this song up because I'll be dancing to it in a new play that's been written. There are only a few artists in the world that are able to create vivid images of a time in your life. And, this gentlemen is one of them. I've been trying to let go of my late grandmother for so long. But this song makes me not want to do that. It brought her back to life for a moment and for that I am thankful. I got to see her, clear as day, one more time. Thank you x.

This performance is poetry in verbal, musical, and physical motion.

Wow! He put his whole heart, body, and soul in this song, giving me goosebumps!

Feet planted on terra firma, his spirit is yet ethereal. Love all of this mans' music, but the performance of this song in this place is unmatched. Peace, to all who seek it.

One of the best performances I have ever seen. Period.

His voice is medicine ❤️

Yet another return for me. Yet another tear shed. Unbelievably good.

His music is just "BEAUTIFUL". He's absolutely stunning. Listening to his music has put such an impact on my life when I was on the streets. I send out a thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your Amazing!

TikTok brought this angel back into my life. My heart skipped a beat and I was brought back to my college years….amazing voice.

this should be 34 billion views....

As soulful a voice as ever sung. His mainstream career never did justice to his amazing voice.

Hands down, the best performance of any song ever. I watch this several times a day.

Almost 20 years later and I'm still in love with this song!

It is utterly criminal that we don't have this in good audio quality. Superb stuff, deserves decent audio.

Jesus I could listen to your voice all day long every day. Straight to my soul. Beautiful.

I would like to say.. 1. I consider myself fortunate to be commenting on this with people that truly are here for music only, and not out for an argument... 2. Who truly believe this guy is one of the best voices ever. 3. I bought this as a single when it came out... I loved it... think it reached the 15-20's in the charts in the uk... 4. I will NEVER tire of it... And the break, is so soul reaching, heart rending, and so pure emotion that I always come here, good times or bad. 5. I love him. 6. Good luck to you all, and I consider the 115,000 of us that have watched this ( although there was another that has been removed ) still rather a private place in this world I can come and just find peace. Thankyou xxxx

Such a unique artist, dude has proper soul.

It's 2023 and if a genie granted me three wishes I would say 1) transport me to this concert! 2) Let me be at the front of stage, and let me get a photo with him. Love how he's blushing with that beautiful smile at :14 secs. The way he embodied this song is outrageous. Love how he cradles himself, sway those hips and that raspy voice is so sexy AF! That guitar player is off the chain too.

This man just poured his soul out.

No room in the music industry for talent like this anymore. Such a shame

God of music ......multi-instrumentalist, brilliant writer, brilliant producer, brilliant vocalist, brilliant stage performer ..... most likely the greatest all-around music artist of all time, as well as the greatest vocalist of all time ....... he and Prince are very similar in almost every regard, except this guy is a far superior vocalist, and far more multi-dimensional with his music ....dude is astoundingly talented in every way

Truth. That's one of the singers he was compared to back in the day.

I was sitting on my bed and I was listening to your song Holding on to you and all of a sudden I hear thump thump but it was almost quiet and I looked down and it was my tears hitting my comfetor and I only had that happen to me one other time in my life and it was when my sister passed April 17, 2016. I have felt like everything is loud to me. I looked at some of your interviews and I was able to calm down when I listened to you. I was thinking about your voice when you talk and it requires others to come down and listen and able to hear the message you want to express. The voice is small but the words are immaculate and we will never touch the end of then because they are infinite. We all need forever.

Almost 25 years ago! I can remember what I was wearing, how hot it was that evening, how perfect his voice was, how fantastic the crowd was and how I knew nobody would ever surpass the performance he gave that night. It felt special but looking back it seems so much more.

One of the greatest vocalist of all times.

Can’t get enough of this song or his voice! Outstanding/hits deep

LOVE LOVE LOVE,he reaches the parts other singer simply cannot reach.

More of a Sermon than a Song, awesome performance. On a par with any of the greats.

Is this the most beautiful live performance of a song ever? Love this. Last year I flew to Bologna from the UK to see this man perform. He performed this song. I would have travelled just for that one song alone.

I asked for a sign and your video appeared. Whenever I ask a question, I always get the answer (as long as I'm open to receiving). At first, I struggled to understand ... but then the words of your "daddy" made it clear. I've been working on that my whole life. Something I've yet to achieve. It's hard to believe I ever will, but therein lies the Challenge ;) TY so much for this beautiful message. Of course my Angels, Guidance Team, Higher Self, God, and the Universe all know me so well. Nothing less than your Soulful Angelic voice could deliver this message, like an arrow straight to my heart. I don't know if you'll ever read this comment and know of my gratitude, but if you're meant to - you will 💗✌

whenever I listen to this song, everything I hear after it seems empty, soulless and void of all emotion. I bow in humility to this kind of gift, because calling this mere talent surely falls far too short man. 2017 and still killing it!!!

Immortal soul. It's amazing how unfeeling other music is after hearing this song. This kind of talent simply cannot be described in words alone. Only the heart knows by being pulled this way and that. Beautiful is all one can say, and even then it doesn't say nearly enough. Sing on my good man, sing on and keep breaking hearts!!!

Had the pleasure of seeing him live many years ago ... this man has one of the greatest voices and sings from his soul. Love you 🙏🏼😘
