*Lyrics*
[Verse 1]
It's just you, it's just me
I lost you in dreams
Now I'm falling
Please don't catch, let me break
Into pieces of hate
Still I'm soaring
[Pre-Chorus]
Kind of sad but you remind me
You remind me of a love that I once knew
Kind of sad but you remind me
You remind me of a love who outgrew me too
[Chorus]
He released me into orbit
Still I found a way to navigate to you
He released me into orbit
Still I found a way to gravitate to you, oh
[Verse 2]
Yeah, he told me
Here we are close to midnight
Something don't feel right
Where'd you go? Where'd you go?
On your rocket ship
Take care you don't slip to a new realm
I'll wait for ya by the hotel
Please pay my bills before you lose your
Head over heels
I don't care about this dog and you know I can't afford it
I don't wanna get bigger
Gravity will hold me down like a sticker, yeah
I release, I release you
I don't need, I don't need
If I lose you, I lose you
You can give me the voodoo
Like D'Angelo said, "How does it, how does it feel?"
He knew how it, how it would feel
[Chorus]
When he released me into orbit
Still I found a way to navigate to you
He released me into orbit
Still I found a way to gravitate to you
[Bridge]
Oh no
Please don't say you're desertin', oh
Don't leave me revolving
I'm nearly dissolving, it's true
Please don't lie like the last time
Left me barely holding on
Won't do this again
'Cause I'll spin into infinite moons
[Pre-Chorus]
Kinda sad but you remind me
You remind me of a love that I once knew
Kinda sad but you remind me
You remind me of a love who outgrew me too
[Chorus]
He released me into orbit
Still I found a way to gravitate to you
He released me into orbit
Still I found a way to navigate to you
Am I the only one who shouted 'Amen', after the first verse?
COLORS please invite Tiffany Young to perform one of her new songs from her first EP please!! pleaaaaase
You should put RUEL on your show. #DontTellMe
Uh not dog but ok
😎🏝❤
*I was shook by her voice and then by her pants.*
hahahah
lol. i love her voice. the pants...well, with her voice, she can wear whatever she want
RuthmaJozile1 😂😂💗 same
Hahaha
LOL ikr?!😅 they look really comfortable though
The way she effortlessly switches between octaves is crazy. Like a collaboration with herself
Miche Miche Seriously. Crazy talent!
LITERALLY. HER VOCAL CONTROL IS CRAZY ! SHE IS SHOWING OUT HONEYY
Exactly!!!I hope she on apple music.
freelikeabird yep
(1:55) *h e r r a n g e i s a s w i d e a s h e r p a n t s*
The way she performs this is like she's having a conversation with my soul.
Because she is! Her gift is truly unique and driven by a higher power
❤
that “he released me into orbit” at 3:05 though. chills
Literally
YEP instant tears in my eyes at that point
i LITERALLY almost passed out omfg
Knees got weak... N O T E... don’t listen to this while standing 😂
You should listen to the other live version too if you haven't. She sings this song and another song together, and this very part in the other version is like... so emotional and raspy and just draws out your emotions. Worth the view.
Damn them pants look COMFORTABLE
😂😂😂💀💀💀
I laughed too much at this 😂😂😂😂
goku pants
I wasn't prepared to see that much pant lmao
@@thabanglemao4350 same....bahahahaha
Her low vocal range really surprised me
She used to sing Bass in a female group called The Boxettes.
When I first heard it I felt in my heart if this was 50 years ago, she'd have been made into a Diva and given all the accolades but sadly that time of music is over.
@@XxQueenChristinaxX I loved the Boxettes. I was shocked when i realised that they had split and Nao had gone solo.
THOSE PANTS
THAT RANGE
BLOWN AWAY
{released into orbit}
“You remind me of a love that outgrew me too” kills me EVERY TIME!
You know when you want an artist to become hella famous because they deserve the recognition but at the same time u want to keep them as ur own gem
Minathi Mvinjelwa no not at all this is just selfish
omg yes
@Romario Putra You didnt get what he said huh..
We need a word for this
I totally agree with this!!!!!! ❤
the chord on "he released me into orbit" fuckkkk that really sent me flying
One might say she released you into orbit eh?
@@ztarr haha that's a good one
Ivan Joven Listen to her Live at air studio- you will not regret it.... czcams.com/video/jZPnjTPxNDw/video.html
yeah it was chilling
Real musicians will appreciate this even more
This song is H E A L I N G ❤️
It really is. This song is like a memory I forgot I had.
Her range is phenomenal, her voice ethereal, just sooo beautiful & lyrics that are pure poetry. A gift to us all. People like this dont come round that often. Always moved by Nao. Amazing.
The positivity that comes from Colors as a platform and comment section is uncanny in youtube space!
You speak the true Simple Rick.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!
It's because we're all here for good music and colors always delivers and there's no better satisfaction than that 💕
It’s refreshing☺️
Definitely agree!
First NPR, now colors, what a week. I'll accept anything life throw at me now.
Adam Firdauz MY THOUGHT EXACTLY
Right?! I literally _just_ finished listening to her NPR Tiny Desk feature and this popped up in my feed.
And right after Doja tho? Lol.
Colors have been on fire with their choice of artist. First Mereba, then Dorja, and now Nao???? We been blessed
@@outsiderain6346 yo lets be real, dont hate on that doja track that shits money
This run is everything, 2:18 y'all are welcome
This is the most empowering break up song I've ever heard.
I love her and her energy is amazing. She is so talented her vocal range is crazy good♥️♥️
Brother & I she’s sooo good live
@@GRRRRRRRRRRME I missed her concert 😭 can't wait for another tour
this performance was absolutely captivating. Nao's talent and vocal range is out of this world.
I'm so glad she landed on earth
I see what yall did there lol.
Her and Tierra Whack's pants need to do a collab.
Love this comment!
Honestly
Add noname and Raveena too
N McPhee yessssss
Her lil hand dances got me so in love. That’s how you know you gotta dope ass voice. Your fingers just follow
She killed her colors show the same way she killed her NPR Tiny Desk Concert😭😭😭😭😭
She's a performance murderer.. Gives me chills throughout my entire body when I hear her...
i love how you just put me on to her NPR Tiny Desk Concert. I just KNOW she killed it. Haven’t even watched yet but I’m certain.
Her TDC was unbelievable honestly, goosebumps the entire time
Makhadzi Tshiswaise yeaaaaaah😍🥰
NAO is finally on colours!!! Am I dreaming or what?!
She deserves more than colors.... she is amazingly talented! I have tiny desk performance playing almost always!
Wow she’s like many different voices sharing the same song from different perspectives honestly beautiful vocal control
God where was she in the 90s R&B scene she woulda been god damn killing it that voice like holy shit so unique the way you do lows and ur voice is still naturally high it’s really impressive
Her voice really does balance the complexity and minimalism through her lyrics
i’ve never in my life clicked so fast omg
jalynn omg right i am so happy to see her here!! she is so underrated
jalynn same 😩
Rightttt
I always navigate back to her Colors performance...BEAUTIFUL 💜
She is so talented. I was watching your mouth when she was transitioning from low to high notes and I realised she does something with her tongue that she uses with great control. Her voice gave me goosebumps as usual
I understand its crazy how she does it
This performance was long overdue, I’m in love all over again
I wanna know what the people who disliked are going through in life, because this was none other than CAPTIVATING.
Talia Rucker people aren’t allowed to have opinions? Hmm okay
@@gloomee2784 lol not that serious

Were those pants designed by NASA in honor of the Orbit she was released into?
edwin baabua 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂

2:15-2:25 tho. Impossible to not have chills!
seriously, grammy like RIGHT NOW!
Her voice brings me back to the 90s & early 2000s RnB jams😏
Alexandria Nguyen this! Is the comment I was looking for ! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 vibessss
@@breezethebuzzter YAASS👏🏼👌🏼
I've always loved NAO but this performance makes me love her even more
She just took all my attention. This is art on another level. Nao is the manifest of a muse. Wow!
First TINY DESK, now COLORS? We are so proud of you!!!!
She did Tiny Desk? Yoooooo *searches*
Imani Ballard YESSS
Literally not from this world. her presence is UNMATCHED and her sound is so unique i love her so much
Well stated!
2 years later and i still shake my head at those runs. This song is like a musical thats just as equally tragic as it is beautiful 😩
Jeesh. She should start her own vocal school, every note is effortless.
If y’all haven’t seen her live PLEASE do. I ain’t been the same since she came to philly and snatched my soul 😭💖
MayaNotMya _ same was there too. Was soaking up every moment
I saw her yesterday in London... Speechless ... best night of my life
Saw her about a month ago in Atlanta. Simply breathtaking
Same over here in Germany, I saw her in Cologne and been having spiritual processes going on in my soul ever since, I dunno what she did that night but I definitely love it.
Yes I saw her twice I'm so happy
Nao is my religion. Love her voice!
Naoism
I came here after seeing his on Twitter, and this is one of the best colors performances I've seen in a while. I hope she makes it very far because she is so talented. I wish her the best
I've been grieving to this song for 3 years now. I can't express my gratitude for Nao's art and for COLORS recording of this session. It's my favorite version I've heard Nao sing.
The vocal scaling talent is just so glorious. We Stan a Goddess.
Nao's voice is one of the purest this Earth has ever known
And the song is otherworldly, I could gravitate for ever listening to this
It doesn’t matter how happy/sad/mad/chill i am, this song will always move me to tears. Every time. It’s her voice man.
Her voice control is crazy, she can transition highs to lows easily, wow.
The last minute of this performance had me teary.
This woman has a voice that I've never heard before!!!
This song does things for me, I can’t not get emotional listening to this. It’s genuinely so beautiful 😭❤️✨
She sings so passionately she manages to make you feel like you're listening to the song for the first time even after listening many times
this song makes me cry every time I listen to it, her vocals are so powerful
ALL THE WAY FROM SOUTH AFRICA!!!! I'm literally Crying rn! such artistry within her voice. Thank you Colors Show for showcasing Nao and thank you Nao for who you are girrlll!! I'm literally screamingggggg , wouldnt have it any other way than it being shown this way!❤😍💃😭
I hope you'll be going to AFROPUNK coz she'll performing 😭♥️
FROM SOUTH AFRICA TOO🇿🇦🇿🇦... heard this song last week! And it's been on repeat
Girl same! This performance made me so so emotional wow😭😭😭❤️so beautiful ❤️❤️
in one word, this performance is a journey. the way she uses her vocals and gestures to tell the story of the song makes me feel like I'm being transported somewhere. its so so good
It's amazing that what you're going through determines how you interpret things.This songs reminds me of death and that no one can take us with them nor can we hold on to them here. Released into orbit. I listened to this entire album while I grieved and continue to do so. Waiting another lifetime to be reconnected to all those lost.
A year later, you have me crying like a baby. I Love You❤
I'm simple human. I see Nao. I click. My hearing is blessed.
From NPR to COLORS in a matter of days... keep growing, keep shining 🍃
This is what current artists need to be like! She's perfect! I'm still listening in 2021
she has a powerful sweet voice. also, those trousers look COMFORTABLE.
Tiny desk now colors🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Those Goku pants👀
Swag is out of this world
Thinking the same thing bro
YASSSS I never clicked so fast on a notification because I literally BEGGED y'all on every video to get her!!!!!!
This performance is everything. I'm shook. Colors I love you.
Everything about her is beautiful
The vibesssss
I was two seconds in and my jaw literally dropped
Nao is getting the proper treatment she deserves :’) from NPR to Colors, what did I do to deserve this blessing this week huh? :’))
About TIME you all got NAO on here. Love her soulful and youthful voice.
@ 2:47 when she grinned and patted her chest, singing "kinda sad but you remind me... of a love I once knew" ... I felt that I my soul 😔🥺🥺🥺
This song literally reminds me of a love I once knew, funny how we both loved this song in our relationship. We didn’t care about the lyrics but rn the lyrics are all that matter to me
Why am I crying at my work break room right now omg thank you colors😭😭👑👑👑🌸🌸🌸💫💫💫💫
She did not have to go this hard, i am a mess right now 😍😍😍
You ever listen to something that just captivates you so much, you just feel time had stopped for you to listen? Yeah..this is me with this performance.
On repeat - I seriously can’t get enough of this video! Run it back NAO 😍 🎶
She was incredible in concert if not better than what I anticipated. She sounds exactly the same 😊❤️
She is amazing. I want to keep her to myself, but she deserves the recognition✨
3 things:
This song is awesome and best listened to back-to-back with Saturn.
The flow in the second verse is the best part.
Her pants are everything.
I was at her live show a few weeks ago.... pure hype and perfection... that voice control
voice literally has me in tears
She's such a joy to watch! Stunning voice and woman
I don't comment often but this woman's voice is simply amazing.
I. Love. The. Beat. So. MUCH!
Isaa 10/10.
Each live show of Orbit is ICONIC, it's always beautiful and new. Go on Nao, we love you 💜
The beauty in this woman’s voice is undeniable she’s an earth angel at this point. Proud of you Queen Nao 👸 👑 ♥️
There’s way to measure the levels of emotions I feel when listening to this specific video.
Hearing her raw vocals really strike a different chord, it hits different, just sends me into another realm
She's such a gift for the music industry and the world. Her talent is incredible, we can see her soul just by listening to her. She's magic! Grateful for her! YES!!!
I just love this channel cause it brings so many new content and genres that I never knew I liked🤩
I can listen to this song 100 times and I wouldn't get tired of it.
ghaaad I sometimes wish I did not meet him...but thank you Nao for this song and for that beautiful voice
This was absolutely breathtaking😍😍
Can y'all bring FKJ on next please?🔥
I'm still wondering why he's not here yet ... Urrrgh
@@jamesscott6864 ikr
Yess I love him
he does have a vid on here somewhere. im sure if you search it will come up
PLEASE!!! And June Marieezy!
Wait, what? Not NAO, I'm not at home yet! 😤
hahaha what a mood
i'm crying every time, she's so beautiful and how she delivers the emotions :'(
Girl those Rifts were magic.... Absolutely Fire... Slayed
when the album came out i kept replaying replaying the second verse with the effect i love how that part came out vocals, writting, producing, mixing
OMG ..so talented .She's deserves morr attention and recognition worlwide like BEYONCE !!!🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌#LOVENAO
Talisson Jiu Jitsu ريال they should also do a song together. Beyoncé needs to put out a neo soul Album and have people like kwabs, Daniel caesar, nick hakim, h.e.r, and Nao that would be so awesome, especially if she get a song with Stevie too
Nao is just so so so amazing she deserves so much more recognition her voice is out of this world
So this is like, my current favorite song. I discovered it last night, through her music video, and then I saw there was a Colors version.... and Colors be doing magic with the remastering and production....I had to click. I've been having this on replay all night and all morning. It just speaks to me so much.
