Dennis Brown - Let Me Down Easy Lyrics

this is really a heartbreaking song

makes me want to travel back in time and stay there....

I'm not sure, but I strongly believe that that's Carlton Barrett on drums.. I may be wrong but it sounds so close Carlton

An incredibly natural and talented singer, just like my gorgeous and beautiful George Michael. Gone too soon!💜💓💕💖💗💝💞💟xxx 7.2.19

This song was originally done by Van McCoy (yes, the one who made "The Hustle!") and rerecorded by G.C. Cameron (who, as lead singer of The Spinners gave us "it's A Shame" and, on his own, the original version of "It's So Hard To Say Goodbye To Yesterday"). Love all the versions of this song.

너무 좋다..💓💓

Rasta ❤💛💚

ÉTERNEL SINGER Dennis Prince EMMANUEL

memories with my ex omg. we go to all house and basement late night blues in london. ex was all over me everytime dance to this young dennis brown 70s style

I was a kid in Hawaii when I heard this song in 1977. my dad was in military stationed there. I was a Texas and Tennessee kid and feel in love with this music . it was soulful and so sweet. it made me hole and I'm so thankful.

This song is my situation right now

I close my eyes and i'm back in time.

HE WAS BORN WITH A NATURAL SINGING TALENT.....MISS HIM A LOT...GONE TOO SOON.

"Give Me Time" has different meanings to women in different countries, I have learned....Beware. This is a classic.  I only knew the Van McCoy cover until now!  Love Dennis Brown.

I remember seeing DB for the first time in 1974. He appeared at Brixton Town Hall, London. An unforgettable experience! Truly missed!

Sweet !!!!!!

Blues party time!

Dennis all the way!

Reggae Magic.

pretty sure this is the exact same backing track Derrick Harriott used for his own version of the same song, he did a couple of tunes with Dennis Brown like "Concentration" and "He Can't Spell" in '72 before DB linked up with Niney as producer.

song was written by Van McCoy & Joe Cobb in 1972, was a minor hit in US on Buddah Records.

From 0.33m - 0.48m : photos from Dennis, live @ Paradiso, Amsterdam.

dedicated to our soon to be ex neighbour!!! hope ya much happier when we have gone!!! if thats possible????? we lovie are seriously over the moon!!!

I love this song sooo much. Much appreciation for my Jamaican background; my parents always playing their old tunes!!!

Left some of the best songs of our generation to cherish for the rest of our lives, i have a painted picture of him holding his mike in my living room... 4eva On1 Lve Dennis, we still love you as much as we did in the 70's -GOD BLESS

agree !

so cute!

A DEB classic for real. But let's not forget that neither Derrick Harriott or Dennis Brown recorded this song originally. As with many Jamaican hits of the time, it was a soul cover. The first recording was by Van McCoy who wrote it - and it was later versioned by Motown artist G.C. Cameron, which was probably the version Derrick heard. All versions are good still - wicked song.

Great song bring back lot of memories

Why have they got pictures of Tabby Diamonds representing D. Brown? It's like the pictures that are posted of some group and the guy who posted them swore he knew The Abyssinians! Until we had to let him know that we are personal bredren with Satta and Linford. Please get things right here. Do! Big D Brown Chune!

There's so much fakery and fuckery on youtube when it comes to reggae...I've seen a dozen songs attributed to Bob Marley that were first recorded long after his death. But scammers who are monetizing their page will say they're by Bob because they know they'll get millions of hits. I've called it to the attention of youtube/Google but they do absolutely nothing. Personally, I prefer the Derrick Harriott version that Dennis covers here, probably because I'm familiar with it.

A big tune here!!! Classic!!!

crowned prince of reggae, such a powerful voice!

don't sleep on derrick harriott...

Derrick Harriot remake

RIP Dennis Brown

BEAUTIFUL

One of Jamaica's GREATEST male vocalists! RIP Dennis Emmanuel Brown!

His music will never die

@moomoomoomoo420
That's so so sweet.. thank you for sharing that.
It's most important that our kids aren't kept 'blind' to some of the BEST sounds of OUR youth.
: ) X

my sons only 16 months but ive already passed down the love of old school he just fell asleep to this.........timeless tune

Finding this made me draw breath and hold back the tears...Days gone & a true legend gone too. I'm so thankful for both.

Dennis Brown brought such joy and good vibes to music lovers across the world....a true legend. RIP brother!

This brings back memories of decent raving back in the day. Yeah, we may have only been 16 and yeah we used to sneak out but we dressed respectably in our finest, treated people's properties with respect, there was no stabbing and fighting, man used to pull you for a dance, man used to smell good, decent curry goat and rice free flowing and if you were one of those that stayed to the end, you could guarantee a fry dumpling brekfast (yes, brekfast not breakfast). Those were the days, indeed.

gives me goosebumps every time I listen to this . .. just lovin' old skool reggae!

We ALL miss ya DB!
