D'Angelo, The Vanguard - Really Love (Live on SNL) 

I agree.

💯

Indeed.

Nah stop that😂

Umm….it’s as good as any I have seen. He sounded amazing. His background singers, actually, needed to be dialed back to hear his beautiful falsetto.

I started listening to his music around 3 years ago, only playing his full albums non-stop, one at a time. I couldn't contain my emotions and feelings from everything he and his teams put forth and through. And I'm really thankful for that because my cells respond to his music and artistry first and foremost. Then I stumbled upon the video of Untitled, it is sure not as surging as the latter that I mentioned thankfully haha. I still see it as extremely attractive and artsy. But the D'Angelo from 2015-2016, aye aye is as fine as great red wines go. I'm looking forward to his next project no matter what the decade :)

@@hata3128 I only recently started listening to his albums and I hate myself for being so late.

@@himdotcom Welcome to the party :D Let's us all enjoy and appreciate D'Angelo's music!

Kush J exactly..

Kush J exactly. People age...it’s part of life

Yessir!!!!

undisputed!!!

In another 10 years

He practically invented the genre

Jazz-Funk😂😂😂

Love that 2:44 moment too. Amazing

+quietstormaps ...that was the vocal equivalent of man shallow strokin for a while and then droppin it down in there full throttle all of a sudden...lol...jus sayn

LIPSHIPSnFINGATIPS Great analogy

He's singing in falsetto most of the song. So it's certainly surprising.

Righttttt!

Battling his demons ? Voodoo child aight but demons???

@@kokoyosenti4332 That's not what she meant. He's had some personal issues he's been dealing with. Personal demons.

How you wrote a killer love poem right here. I'm feeling it. That hat and that gap and that cool...(sigh).

Amen Alisa. Amen.

Here in 2020 because this music isn't made anymore.

Saw the european tour in 2015 and spoke to someone before the show started and he was there *specifically* for Pino, though the rest of the show wasn't a bad time either!

Let’s not forget the great John Blackwell who sadly passed not long after this

yeah this mix is phenomenal for a tv performance. amazing

Yeah I have to admit that's the best mix I ever heard on TV!!!!!!!! I wonder did he bring his own engineer bcuz that sound was so in tuned with the music and that normally comes with a engineer who has been with the band!

djcoolcliff Ben Kane assisted with the sound, one of the lead engineers on Black Messiah.

+Billy Jackson I've noticed the sound on the SNL stage has improved over the last year and a half. There was a period before that when the vocals just refused to sit in the mix. However, this is some next level shit right here. And that sexy lady, oh god the sexy lady.

I know I'm late, but YES!!! People don't realize how important that job is.

Allllllready! Each time I watch this , I listen to how each instrument contribute to this masterpiece , from the background singers to the awesome string section. MASTERPIECE INDEED!

Shantae Durden soooooo pure! And rich!

so happy . we said the same!

You REALLY need a good engineer for live. Excellent work. Kudos!

wish the lush strings were just a tiny bit louder and her voice a little quieter at the beginning but can't complain too much hehe

holamissmusica true. I feel you.

Yeah the sound is on point for real with all of those harmonies. My homeboy Mike is killing em again!! On a whole nother level! I'm glad to see he got Red singing with him too! He up next! Richmond is like that for that soul!

+TheReturnOfStephan1 Acousticly you are right :D

+1 perfectly said

Gamble & Huff would totally agree with you!!!!

Yeah, arranged by Brent Fischer!

A phenomenal slow jam companion piece to Spanish Joint.

i said the same thing when i saw this lol. he had everybody grooving.

Xavier Leeds Damn. It's magic. This last project is simply brilliant.

Got dayum i mean got dayum actual music. There is so much drone music on the radio now hearing this is like breathing again. All i been hearin is look at the flic of the wrist and im a stoner on the radio. And yeah the strings section was definitely bobbin thier heads. The song came in smooth with some spanish guitar style. Nice and that breakdown at the end was so funky i had the stank face too. Lol. Thank God for some real music

sabbathcore two snaps for tha stank face.

sabbathcore AMEN to that!!!

Amen

Couldn't agree more. I'm a fan now too

+Hillsdale Let there be Light and I am not God I am Lucifer!!! This young man!! Hallejuah. he came back!! Someone with a band and instruments!! O M G!! THERE IS a savior among us... I am really in love with you.

Now you have to listen to the rest of his catalog.

welcome

Get brown sugar too if you haven't already

Isaiah Sharkey on guitar!

@@vidsuperstars12 Thank you 😊. Love it!!!

@@marlajones2514 there’s a nice video of him jamming some spanky alford tunes. Definitely worth a listen

You missed this one? Seek forgiveness brother Seek immediate forgiveness

I know right I’m like what was I doing when this beautiful song was introduced b/c I fell in love with this mellow groove immediately. Better than never

Yeah, arranged by Brent Fischer!

Agreed

You have the ear almighty!

Kendra Foster. She's awesome.

She also co-wrote a lot of black messiah with D'angelo....

***** she's also been with the Parliament/Funkadelic camp for YEARS.. she goes hard all the time.. talented queen

She's an amazing singer, song writer and person. So bless to have worked with this beauty the last 2 days. I love Kendra Foster!

Seven years late but yes...she...is 😍😍

Does not get old. Listened to that album not stop for a year when it came out

Isaiah Sharkey is a BEAST. Phenomenal player.

@@zbhelm For real. I gotta listen to his stuff more.

I was there too hes amazing

Yep great gig..

Saw him in Michigan last night. Magical. Perfect.

Yeah you can’t understand… that part

I'm back and extremely happy that they won 2 Grammys tonight..

+Claudia Benitez good to see u back

+Claudia Benitez yes well deserved!

+Claudia Benitez "He won 2 grammys" .... I'm happy for him, he truly deserve them..

HuffandFuff • On point....

Yes indeed!!

LMAO!

Xavier Leeds lol.😂

I KNOW RIIIIIIGHT!

Me too! LOL!!!

Basically!!! lol

Yall got to hear the OG unmastered on Triple C Radio! Salute!

Absoulety inherited his father. Clare Fischers genes. Beautiful string arrangement.

CF was amazing on the Parade album

So much Purple in this tune; Brent Fischer, John Blackwell (RIP 😢) on drums for this performance, Jesse Johnson/electric guitar… D’Angelo’s blood is always paisley. Such an incredible tune. 💜

I feel like they could've cut the length down more skillfully. Feels claustrophobic toward the end and doesn't do the original track justice.

Did not know that. Well done sir, and thank you for the enlightenment.

I was thinking the same thing

+Riley Riley Great minds think alike

Me three

yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Prentice Sherrod I know that's right...school is in session....

Agreed

Agreed

Ahhhhhhh, that Love, that left me broken 💔

totally agree, Jai

AGREED!

man , im doin exactly the same thing

This is so excellent and perfect that I have been playing it nonstop since it aired. I'm hypnotized. I have to repent and go back to really listen to the rest of the album.

Let's see...it's been over a month since this performance...and I'm STILL coming back literally every other day to watch this?!!!????! I've NEVER done this with any other video. Amber, you're so right , I'm as well as other ppl are hypnotized with this performance. We just... keep.... coming... back.

+Taylor Downing his live spotify session is on Spotify which is also pretty sick

+Taylor Downing You can use a youtube converter to convert this video to an mp3...

toothlady thanks...I had no idea I could do that

+Taylor Downing I use flv2mp3.
