Sylvia Tells the Story Behind 'Nobody'

[jeffreyraia]

Such a humble pleasant person. I was actually just listening to her song on the radio, got on my computer and into Youtube, and this video was on my feed.

Ms. Sylvia is every bit the beauty today as she was in the 80's! Love her music!!!

I LOVE hearing her give props to EVERYBODY. So many artists get the big head and think they do it all on their own. That's a nice TV show fantasy. But her story is more believable.

30+ years later and this song still gets stuck in my head, still remember all the words!!

My sister is a friend and ran Sylvia's fan club back in the day. Sylvia is a sensible person and fine musician with a good heart. I wish her continued success.

[mccommas]

I have never seen another celeb give so much credit to others. What a gracious person.

[Sarasdad]

Gosh, I miss this girl. Bring Sylvia back to the stage lights, I'd buy a ticket...

I remember in the eighties I could not turn on the radio without hearing Nobody. Sylvia has a beautiful voice and is a gorgeous lady. She seems nice and down to earth to boot.

[Berkner]

Love how she mentions 45 records. I use to buy 45's all the time in the late 70's and early 80's.

Wow, she looks great! Hard to believe it's been so long since her Nobody song was playing on the radio.

My aunt Michelle loved this song. She recently died, and we had this song to her celebration of life playlist ❤. So many of us sang along, tears of sadness and joy. Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤
