(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher

“(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher” is an R&B song, originally performed by Jackie Wilson in 1967. It made a Top 10 Pop, # 1 R&B hit. Guess who is singing it today. It is the son of Jackie Wilson. His name is Bobby Brooks Wilson, and the legend continues.

When you look at Bobby and watch him perform, you can see Jackie. When you hear Bobby sing, you can hear Jackie. However, Bobby has some songs of his own and they are beautiful. One of his songs is titled, “I Can’t Love You Anymore”. Like his father who was nicknamed Mr. Excitement, Bobby is full of talent and excitement too.

Bobby Brooks Wilson has been performing live in Bethesda. The crowd seems to enjoy him wherever he performs. Bobby sings real and soulful meaningful songs that will never go away. It may look and sound like music has gone to the dogs. That old tradition may have died in it according to the music industry, but the truth is many people go to see Bobby Wilson perform.

Now see his father Jackie Wilson
