I saw her live and the theater was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop; we almost held our breath to ensure we heard every note of her angelic voice.
I had that same experience with Natalie Cole live in 2012 I think it was - can't describe it, it's one of those experiences you just have to live your self.
This has aged beautifully. Her silky velvet voice intoxicates my eardrums with lyrics that fill my thoughts with revelations of an old lover I never knew
OMGGG so I was in a music discovery mood & told my Alexa speaker to play “afro jazz” not knowing if it was an actual genre, and then this song came on. Subsequently listened to her whole album. THIS IS EXACTLY THE VIBE OF MUSIC I’VE BEEN YEARNING FOR. Afro instrumentals at a slower tempo. The lyrics on top & her voice are just *chef’s kiss* This song just oozes black tenderness, black love, and black intimacy.
Being Mary Jane got me falling in love with this song! I was all over the place trying to shazam it before the scene ended. Lol *Singing* Ginger me slowly...
🌹🌹🌹We are living in a time where the music industry is just like a fast-hardcore-money-mashine.But there's an other side in music..there's music comeing from the soul...you are like a butterfly with many beautiful colours that is flying above us...and we look at you and your videos and we listen to your wonderful voice...and we slow down in this stressfull world. ..I just wanna say thank you very much Somi!
MissBlack&White MissBlack&White I don't know if I could like this comment anymore, man, I hate the new music feel.... It has no Soul, this is pure, stripped, and real. I discovered this artist yesterday and instantly fell in love with it
I FOUND HER!!!! Bonang on Metro brought me here. i heard this for the first time today and wondered WHY? This is a 2015 track and i hear it a year later. have i been under a rock all this time? as a film student im sick of using American romantic music... this is what ive been searching for. loving.
Somi has one of the most amazing voices I've heard in years! Thank you for bringing positive vibrations all over my mind and body! Your art is true, relevant, beautiful, refreshing,..
amazing song.....Neo Soul Cafe ..online radio station brought me here....stunning song and a beautiful video, reminded me of the black and white films of the 40s and the screen sirens of that era......sophisticated, sultry, mysterious and mischievous....
Just when you think music is losing its soul...this song emerges and you're like yes...."finally, theres still good music out there that still has its artistic appeal." IMO... this song is everything. #BLESS100
First watched the video in 2015, Mzansi Magic Music,to be precise, captured by the piano chords, the silky and soulful voice of Somi, the whole production was ear catching for a then 20 year old man, still today it's still giving more chills Made me love jazz slowly and steadily
Divine!!!! I have been a Somi fan since day one, truly a beautiful and magical spirit. Beyond ecstatic to hear this song the other night on Being Mary Jane. Go Somi!!!! Greatness is here!
Fell in love with Somi's captivating, soulful voice and powerful lyrics when she opened for a well known vocalist at the Portland Jazz Festival about 5 years ago. Love, love this song, but my favorite is the one closed the show with - and took everyone's breath away. Amazing! (and totally eclipsed the headliner's show, btw) THIS: czcams.com/video/3XwGevmSXsE/video.html
Her name is Rachel. She used to work at a Club in town. We made love to this song on every Pool Table and Kitchen sink and Counter top and Couch with this song on repeat a million times after she closed up. May her beautiful spirit rest forever peacefully.
This is definitely it. this song is so right, i listen to it first thing when i get into my office and even though it talks about winning a woman's heart somehow it makes me feel like such a strong career woman and it just takes me where i want to see myself. big ups Somi.
Much respect to Being Mary Jane for giving us this great gem because the most high knows B.E.T sure in the hell won't play Somi on their network on a regular bases hint R.I.P B.E.T J.
Je viens de découvrir cette artiste sur TSF Jazz, alors que son concert passait en direct du Duc des Lombards, j'ai un vrai coup de cœur et vais écouter attentivement ses albums

Same here!!! My best-friend introduced me to her music by taking me to her concert. It was the 1st time I'd heard of her. I was memorized.
This has aged beautifully. Her silky velvet voice intoxicates my eardrums with lyrics that fill my thoughts with revelations of an old lover I never knew
Poet. Um? Well done.
"Ginger me slowly".. love how she sings it, that warm feeling that washes over as her voice lifts off
Yes O!!!

I did the same! Asked for African jazz. Then created a channel off this song. So beautiful.
Thanks to Metro fm ( in South Africa) for introducing us to this wonderful singer, her voice is so amazing.
Yes I heard this in South Africa first...on vacation in Johannesburg
Being Mary Jane got me falling in love with this song! I was all over the place trying to shazam it before the scene ended. Lol *Singing* Ginger me slowly...
For future reference, there is usually a playlist available on the BMJ page on BET.com after each episode. The music on that show is top notch!
Spotify has the entire BMJ season soundtrack...I was also looking for this and some others.
LOL Same here! Damn near broke a vase trying to shazam this!
Being Mary Jane turned me on to this song! Siri found it for me!
MrsCandiiRayne lmaooo I know. The le struggle to find good music these days.
Being Mary Jane brought me here & now I'm studying the lyrics like I'm going to write a test on it & my life depends on it. Such a beautiful song.
Dimmed lights, scented candles, red wine, chocolates... then with this sweet track...hmmm

Wow. Sheer beauty and soul. Absolutely refreshing in this fast-track, give-me, profanity-packed world. I'm in love with

First watched the video in 2015, Mzansi Magic Music,to be precise, captured by the piano chords, the silky and soulful voice of Somi, the whole production was ear catching for a then 20 year old man, still today it's still giving more chills
Made me love jazz slowly and steadily
