I think Lynden David Hall was the closest the UK have come to have a true Soul singer over the last 20 years. He died in 2006 at the age of 31 from cancer, and for me it was a great lost to the music industry. If you have ever watched the film Love Actually you have seen Lynden David Hall as he is the guy that stands up in the church and starts singing All You Need Is Love. This song is truly beautiful. I really wanted to post Do Angels Cry? which is equally good but there wasn't a video online.
I was only five when daddy flew the coup and left me
All I had was tears and pain, as my sunshine turned 2 rain
There were troubled times, daddy only saw it on the weekend
I was growing up into a man, he didn't seem 2 understand
My heart screams your name
Whenever your near
My heart feels no pain
You're the medicine 4 me
I used to treat ladies with little respect at all
I was a fool at the time, looking 4 some love I could never find
The cross that I carry on this thorny road
Doesn't feel so heavy when your love lightens up my load
Chorus
My heart, my heart, my heart
Screams your name whenever you're near
My heart feels no pain
You're the medicine for me
Chorus
Medicine 4 my pain
Medicine 4 my pain
Medicine 4 my pain
Medicine 4 my pain
