Frederick Anthony "Freddie" Jackson (born October 2, 1956) is an American soul singer. Among his well-known hits are "Rock Me Tonight (For Old Times Sake)", "Have You Ever Loved Somebody", "Jam Tonight", "Do Me Again" and "You Are My Lady".
Born in Harlem, Jackson was trained as a gospel singer from an early age, singing at the White Rock Baptist Church of Harlem. There he met Paul Laurence, who would later become his record producer and songwriting partner. After completing school, Jackson joined Laurence's group LJE (Laurence Jones Ensemble) and played the New York nightclub scene. During the early 1980s, Jackson moved to the West Coast and sang lead with the band Mystic Merlin (with whom he released three studio albums), but soon returned to New York to work with Laurence at the Hush Productions company. He sang on demo recordings of Laurence's compositions, and also served as a backing singer for Melba Moore after she saw his nightclub act.
In 1984, Jackson landed a recording contract with Capitol Records, and released his debut album, Rock Me Tonight in 1985. The Laurence-penned title track stormed the R&B charts, spending six weeks at number one, and made Jackson an instant hit on urban contemporary radio. "You Are My Lady" gave him a second straight R&B chart-topper, and also proved to be his highest-charting single on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #12. With "He'll Never Love You (Like I Do)" and "Love Is Just a Touch Away" also hitting the R&B Top Ten, Rock Me Tonight topped the R&B album chart and went platinum. Jackson issued the follow-up Just Like the First Time 1986, on the heels of a number one R&B duet with Melba Moore, "A Little Bit More" (from her album A Lot of Love). Another platinum seller, Just Like the First Time continued Jackson's dominance of the R&B singles charts; "Tasty Love," "Have You Ever Loved Somebody," and "Jam Tonight" all hit #1, while "I Don't Want to Lose Your Love" went to #2.
Rock Me Tonight is the platinum selling debut album from R&B/soul singer Freddie Jackson. Released in 1985, the album yielded four top-10 singles on the U.S. R&B chart, with the first two, "You Are My Lady" and "Rock Me Tonight (For Old Times Sake)", reaching number one. The latter two, "Love Is Just a Touch Away" and "He'll Never Love You", peaked at Nos. 9 and 8, respectively. The album contains a cover of the Billie Holiday classic "Good Morning Heartache". The success of Rock Me Tonight garnered Jackson a Grammy Award nomination in 1986 for Best New Artist, losing out to Sade. Rock Me Tonight went on to top the R&B Albums chart for 14 nonconsecutive weeks, and peaked inside the Top 10 on the Billboard 200.

More than red roses you could send me on a Sunday,
Or the... in a afternoon,
Knowing you respect me,
And the way your love protects me,
And all the little things that you do.
It's not the vacations that we'd taken across the country,
Posing for photographs of the places we have gone,
It's the time we spend at home, that brings music to my soul,
The simple memories I wanna... them all!
[Chorus:]
You were there for me whenever I need you,
Whenever I need you,
With honesty, straight from the heart,
Straight from the heart!
Whatever I'm going through,
I can always turn to you,
In my mind that's the definition of love.
The definition of love!
... get sentimental,
All the surprises that always make me smile,
But it's the loyalty that you give,
... my closest friends, my friends,
That make me say I do, over and over again!
[Chorus:]
You were there for me whenever I need you,
Whenever I need you,
With honesty, straight from the heart,
Straight from the heart!
Whatever I'm going through,
I can always turn to you,
In my mind that's the definition of love.
The definition of love!
I feel so blessed
That yeah, I finally found it,
... You don't wanna live without me,
No, no, no, I was hoping...
It feels the love will cry till I make a definition.
[Chorus: x2]
You were there for me whenever I need you,
Whenever I need you,
With honesty, straight from the heart,
Straight from the heart!
Whatever I'm going through,
I can always turn to you,
In my mind that's the definition of love.
The definition of love!
Oh yeah!
Whatever I'm going through,
