Alexander O'Neal Appreciation Thread

[Worthless Loser]

A once in a generation lifetime R&B talent. So many "repeat on iPod worthy" and quality songs. Not even going to put Saturday Love in here cause it's the most obvious song. The drugs got to him like they did so many other greats, but I'm glad he's still around and living life. Our legends should be cherished while they are still living.

Some of his uptempo songs:




Some of his slow jam/slower tempo songs:






One of the best Christmas songs ever:



I could go on with more songs, but the point probably been made by now. A true talent. He was a master at bridges in songs too. They sounded so smooth and perfect.
