Videos We Love: Unsung Edition – Phyllis Hyman, Clark Sisters, Donny Hathaway, DeBarge

After a week of good TV on TV One we’ve been inspired to change this Videos We Love segment into a tribute of sorts for the four groups/artists that were showcased on the Unsung series. We wrote a post about it earlier in the week, you can check it out here with the comments that readers left. Enjoy!

Phyllis Hyman – Living all Alone

The Clark Sisters – Is My Living In Vain

Donny Hathaway – A Song For You

DeBarge – Love Me In A Special Way

    Believe me it was hard choosing which songs to feature since they all have so many classics. You may be seeing a Pt 2 coming soon.

    Great videos. Can’t wait for part 2. I also hope Unsung on TvOne has more for us. I am glad that those who are alive were willing to participate in the show. This show is like the show on E. THS.

    OMG I have missed SO much not coming to the blog. I LOVED the Unsung shows on TVOne. I’ve always loved Phyllis Hyman even if I didn’t listen to her that much. The video you picked for her I LOVE that song! DeBarge had too many to choose from I agree. I had NO idea that it was Bobby singing Love Me In A Special Way. I liked learning that he and his other brother (Tommy I think) were in a seperate group Switch (this was all before my time although I do love their music). RIP Bobby. The Clark Sisters I enjoyed that one too. I only caught half of it though. I’m mad I missed Donny Hathaway’s though. I wish I could have caught that one. RIP to him and Phyllis Hyman.

    What a heartfelt story about the Debarge family. I was almost in tears; I was teenager during the group’s popularity and of course a big fan. It is so sad to see how drugs have destroyed this very talented family not mention the abuse during their childhood. I will keep them in my prayers and I pray the cycle of drugs and abuse is broken for their future generations.
