Ray Charles

Ray Charles Robinson (September 23, 1930 – June 10, 2004) was an American musician known as Ray Charles (to avoid confusion with champion boxer Sugar Ray Robinson.) He was a pioneer in the genre of soul music during the 1950s by fusing rhythm and blues, gospel, and blues styles into his early recordings with Atlantic Records. He also helped racially integrate country and pop music during the 1960s with his crossover success on ABC Records, most notably with his Modern Sounds albums. While with ABC, Charles became one of the first African-American musicians to be given artistic control by a mainstream record company.Frank Sinatra called Charles “the only true genius in show business.” more »

All night long
One night, I could not sleep
For ringing in my ear
A melody began to sing

Oh, at first
The words I could not make out clear
The smog fields lifted away
And this is what I heard them say

It said without love
(Without love)
There's nothing you can do
Yes, it did
It said without love
(Without love)
You're not even you

All night long
He spoke to me
The words of wisdom rang
Beneath his sweet, soft melody

It said, don't you know
(Don't you know)
That a rich man can be poor
If wealth is all he has, hey

Without love
(Without love)
There's nothing you can do
(Do, do, do, do, do)

Don't you know
Without love
You're not even you
(Without love)

Can't you hear me talking to you
(Can't you hear us talking to you)

Without love, oh
The sorrow's even new
Yes, it is
Without love
(Without love)
You're not even you

Hey, yeah

Without love
(Without love)
There's really so much you can do
Yes, it is
(Without love)

Without love
(Without love)
You're not even you
Everybody sing now

Without love
(Without love)
There's so much you can do
(Without love)

Yes, it is
(Without love)
Yes, it is

Without love
(Without love)
You're not even you
Sing it, sing it
One more time

Without love
(Without love)
There's so much you can do
(Without love)

(Without love)
Without love
Do you know you're not even you
Hey, hey, hey

Without you
(Without love)
