EWF were the premier rnb group of the 80s. These guys played to sold out venues around the world. They were paid up to 500 k to perform live-in the 80s,and sold over a 100 mn albums!
Throughout their era from the early 70s til now their members changed frequently but their signature sound has remained of percussion and vocals in an early funk sound has remained basically true.


For awhile to love
was all we could do
we were young and we knew
and our eyes were alive
Deep inside we knew our love was true
For awhile we paid no mind to the past
we knew love would last
Ev'ry night somethin' right
would invite us to begin the dance

Somethin' happened along the way
what used to be happy was sad
Somethin' happened along the way
and yesterday was all we had
And oh after the love has gone
how could you lead me on
and not let me stay around
Oh oh oh afterthe love has gone
what used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found

For awhile to love each other with all
we would ever need
Love was strong for so long
never knew that what was
wrong oh baby wasn't right
We tried to find what we had
till sadness was all we shared
We were scared this affair would lead our love into
Somethin' happened along the way
yesterday was all we had
Somethin' happened along the way
what used to be happy is sad

Somethin' happened along the way
oh yesterday was all we had
And oh after the love has gone
how could you lead me on
and not let me stay around
Oh oh oh after the love has gone
what used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found

Oh oh oh oh oh oh after the love has gone
what used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Oh woh woh after the love has gone
what used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found

Oh woh woh after the love has gone
what used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Oh woh woh
Oh woh woh after the love has gone
what used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found

Woh woh woh after the love has gone
what used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Woh woh woh

Here's Maurice White,lead vocals doing the timeless,after the love is gone.



You'll notice there are no synthesizers,drum machines ,lip synching or playback. They were artistes-they practiced for hours daily and never dreamed of of performing otherwise unlike todays two bit scamsters who arrange playground lyrics around electronically produced beats and are lionised by ignant youth.
RIP Maurice White

2 weeks ago my 17 year old cousin was talmbout Weezy. I shut him down giving his young arse facts on real music including EWF,and now he's still only semi converted but its a start. Fyi,do you know EWF were getting million dollar payouts for their live performances?
Some say this is one of the reasons the PTB invented rap apart from the demands of the private prison industry- why pay real musicians real money when you can give grimy negroes 50k and a brass watch to entertain other grimy negroes?
