      He said in a documentary for Voodoo that every track he makes is like one of his fingers- it’s a part of him. He takes his sweet time and makes, in my eyes, as close to perfect music as one can get.

  • @idontwantahandlethough

    I've never told anyone this (cause it's kinda embarrassing), but the first time I heard this song, I made it about 30 seconds into the intro before I starting crying because i had never experienced anything as emotionally raw as this album. And to this day, nothing else I've seen or heard has had anywhere close to the same impact. There's just something so... _raw,_ about this song. Vulnerable, but simultaneously powerful because of that very vulnerability (all his songs are tbh). It's just so immediately apparent that he poured his entire soul into this album. I hope he releases another one someday.. but even if he doesn't, I think this is still worthy of being considered his magnum opus.

Having ended a relationship with someone who, while proclaiming soulmate status, habitually neglected the most basic considerations, I wanted to know that on my deathbed, I might remember that of all the Beautiful and Ugly things we experience in life, I got the priviledge of waiting 13 years to hear an album so Beautiful, an 18year old kid would find it to be "the most beautiful song" they had ever heard.

    I had to buy this album, even without hearing a single song from the album first. we have to get back to supporting artists like this. I feel that it's gonna take us buying their music for the radio realize they need to play it, and for the Grammys and etc to show them respect. there's no reason why an R&B artist like this shouldn't go platinum; this album only costs 10 dollars.
    hopefully we can get more good music like this on the radio in 2015 and drown out that other BS.

R&B as an art form has been in jeopardy for the last decade or so. I'm happy to support him and anyone who propagates the art form the right way. I'm glad he's back to remind people what soul music sounds like in its purest form.

    "Really Love"
    When you call my name
    When you love me gently
    When you're walking near me
    Doo doo wah I'm in really love with you, I'm in really love with you
    When you look at me
    I open up instantly
    I fall in love so quickly
    Doo doo wah I'm in really love with you, doo doo wah I'm in really love with you
    I'm in really love with you
    All night beside you I'd lay
    I love you deep when you come to my bed
    Doo doo wah, I'm in really love with you
    Ooh wah, I'm in really love with you, I'm in really love with you
    When you touch me there
    When you make me tingle
    When our nectars mingle
    Doo doo wah, I'm in really love with you, I'm in really love
    I'm not an easy man, to overstand, you feel me
    But girl your patient with me
    Doo doo wah, I'm in really love with you, I'm in really love with you
    All night I wish for you here
    Lay your head beside my hip
    Doo doo wah, I'm in really love with you
    I'm in really love with you
    Doo doo wah, I'm in really love with you
    I'm in really love with you
    Oh how I love the little things you do
    I'm in really love with you

    I woke up and heard D'angelo's long awaited third album has dropped out of no where, what a great day! After listening through his new album twice, I still need more listens but right now I think he's created a very impressive follow up to Voodoo with some slick, sexy sound and writing.

    ....where has this been all my life. This is quite possibly the most vulnerable I have ever felt from listening to a song. As if everything I'm afraid to bare to another soul is wrapped up in the voice of the cello and the frantic dancing of the guitar, it's honestly incredible. His voice is soft and not overpowering at all, and everything works together to create another life I feel. This song has its own consciousness. And to think that it's under my namesake, I can't not love this. I'm actually mad I didn't find this sooner lol

      I'm sure people were thinking the same thing in 2012, when it had been 12 years since his last album, then a couple years later got this. They clearly do still make music like this, because they made this. Is 8 years really so long that it can't be considered 'these days' anymore? Have all the other musicians participating in this production dropped dead since then? Did they all poof into existence 8 years ago, or were they making music all along and you just didn't know about it? Sorry, don't mean to sound so harsh, and I know times have been tough, but try to have some optimism, man! Just cuz it's not on the radio or doesn't seem to be as widely appreciated as it should be, doesn't mean there aren't talented, worthwhile musicians playing small venues and maintaining their craft, everywhere, all the time. Always have been, always will be. The 10 million people who watched this video are also still here, they are testament that a sizable audience for such music is very much still with us, they are all around us. We are not alone.
      Our cultural heritage hasn't been killed off just yet, hope for the future is still alive.

Yo no quería pelear contigo. Solamente te quería amar. Pero tu eres muy celoso. Querías ser mi dueño. Pero yo soy libre. Quieres ser mi rey? No sé si confío en ti. Pero yo te quiero mucho.
    Translation:

    Wow, this is so cool! Brent Fischer (Grammy-winning producer, composer, arranger and son of latin jazz great Clare Fischer) did the orchestral arrangement for this incredible track!!!!

    0:00 - 0:33 Is ethereal! It gives me the chills every time! Almost nothing can beat a solid string section!
