Songs

CD Details

Luther Vandross released Songs in 1994, a collection of covers and standards performed by the acclaimed soul and funk vocalist. Rather than original compositions, Vandross interprets material written by other artists, drawing from the pop-soul crossover repertoire. The album features his renditions of “Love The One You’re With,” “Killing Me Softly,” “Endless Love,” “Evergreen,” “Reflections,” “Hello,” “Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now,” “Always And Forever,” “Going In Circles,” “Since You’ve Been Gone,” and more, showcasing his signature smooth vocal delivery across these familiar melodies.

This is a CD release on the Sony Legacy label. Vandross brings his characteristic lush vocal style to each track, though the selection leans toward melodramatic pop-soul crossover hits rather than the classic American Songbook or traditional soul standards. Owning this used copy lets you experience his interpretive approach to these well-known songs at a fraction of retail cost.
