2678308, Donny Hathaway is the Greatest Singer, even Greater than Sam Cooke
Posted by J-Elijah, Tue Mar-27-12 01:56 AM
Sam Cooke was definitely one of the Greats, "Change is Gonna Come" is evident of that, but he does not compare to Donny Hathaway's "A Song for You," "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother," "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know," "For All We Know, "Someday We'll All Be Free," & "Little Ghetto Boy," & Donny's entire Live cd. Sam's music does not compare to Marvin Gaye's masterpiece "What's Going On."

Sam can't touch the perfect rich tone, pain, spirituality mixed with blues, & heartache in Donny's voice.
Donny is #1 and Marvin is #2.
