    That SATURN album is a spell!! When I discovered it, I didn't even want to listen to anything else---kept replaying the whole album again and again for two months. Every song on that album is beautiful--Love Supreme my favorite, probably because I heard it first. I will even go as far as to say that this album saved my life---it resonated with me because of what I was going through personally when I discovered it (thanks CZcams Music, you know my taste). It gave me the courage to leave behind the drama in my life and love myself a little more. I can't wait to see what she does next. She has a fan for life! Oh, and Kwabs' voice falls in the canon of that enveloping vibration of black male voices that came before---it can't be replicated, it's in the genes (lol, paradoxical here since genes are replicated).

    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
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Saturn
    NAO
    I orbit around the way that you are
    Can't help but be drawn because you're a star
    Baby, baby, baby, baby
    Won't you please navigate to me, to me?
    I love the way you open my heart
    I feel you around me like Venus and Mars
    So baby, baby, baby, baby
    Please stay and navigate to me, to me
    Eventually you will proceed to give me what I need
    Oh, w-w-w-w-woah
    And that's how it should be
    You leave and return
    You're just like Saturn to me, to me
    (Saturn to me)
    Oh, no, no, no
    Your constellation circulating me, ooh-ooh
    Like a Capricorn, you're hard to release
    So maybe, maybe, baby, baby
    Would you please find your way back to me, to me? Oh-ooh
    Eventually you will proceed to give me what I need
    Oh, w-w-w-w-woah
    And that's how it should be
    You leave and return
    You're just like Saturn to me, to me
    Eventually you will proceed to give me what I need
    (What I need)
    Oh, w-w-w-w-woah
    And that's how it should be
    (How it should be)

    You return like Saturn to me
    You return like Saturn to me
    You return like Saturn to me

      She's using her entire range with these two songs. Definitely Orbit is one of the range-iest songs (extreme low and high notes) I've ever head in pop in a long while. A person who does that regularly is Dimash and perhaps old school Mariah

    This is the MOST compelling video I have ever watched. The vocals are perfect, with such nice additions, like when she takes orbit higher than she does on the record. The lighting and the ultra hd camera just heightens the whole experience. THIS VIDEO WAS AN EXPERIENCE. I am in love with everything Nao! I loved the acknowledgement of her outstanding musicians and background singers, she brought them to the forefront, they forefront singers now!! AND IT WAS ALLLL IN ONE TAKEE!! Who do you know that could everrr!! Oh and when kwabs vocals creeped beautifully in i peed a little sksksk. 10/10!!! MY TWO FAV SONGS IN ONE VIDEO! LIVE! I COULD NOT LOVE THIS VIDEO ANY MORE

    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
    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
    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
    Yeah, he told me
    Here we are close to midnight
    But 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 if it’s orbit 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
    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
    Oh no
    Please don't say you're desertin', oh
    Don't leave me revolving
    I'm nearly dissolving, it's true
    Please not like the last time
    Left me barely holding on
    Won't do this again
    'Cause I'll spin into infinite moons
    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
    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
    I gravitate to you
    I gravitate to you
    I gravitate to you
    I gravitate to you, oh
    I orbit around the way that you are
    Can't help but be drawn because you're a star
    Baby, baby, baby, baby
    Won't you please navigate to me, to me?
    I love the way you open my heart
    I feel you around me like Venus and Mars
    So baby, baby, baby, baby
    Please stay and navigate to me, to me
    Eventually you will proceed to give me what I need
    Oh, w-w-w-w-woah
    And that's how it should be
    You leave and return
    You're just like Saturn to me, to me (Saturn to me)
    Oh, no, no, no
    Your constellation circulating me, ooh-ooh
    Like a Capricorn, you're hard to release
    So maybe, maybe, baby, baby
    Would you please find your way back to me, to me? Oh-ooh
    Eventually you will proceed to give me what I need
    Oh, w-w-w-w-woah
    And that's how it should be
    You leave and return
    You're just like Saturn to me, to me
    Eventually you will proceed to give me what I need (What I need)
    Oh, w-w-w-w-woah
    And that's how it should be (How it should be)
    You leave and return
    You're just like Saturn to me, to me (Saturn to me)
    You return like Saturn to me
    You return like Saturn to me
    You return like Saturn to me
    You return like Saturn to me
    Eventually (You return like)
    You will proceed (Saturn to me)
    To give me what I need, oh yeah (You return like Saturn to me)
    And that's how it should be (You return like)
    Leave and return (Saturn to me)
    You're just like Saturn to me (You return)
