(September 22, 2017) Donnell Isaac’s ballad “Loving You” is explicit, but not in the way that contemporary culture usually uses the word. Listeners won’t find Isaac using his husky voice to describe his bedroom exploits or to liken his woman to various models of motorized vehicles.
On “Loving You” Isaac is explicit about the depth of his love and devotion for the woman in his life. And this particular woman is not a hypothetical or imagined girl of his dreams. Rather, Isaac sings about his wife. “It is a song that expresses the core of my heart. It explains why I love my wife so much.” At a time when expressions of true and lasting love between husband and wife can be viewed as corny, such a flat-footed declaration of love once again proves that there is indeed no school like the old school. Give it a listen.
