Me Too Friend!!!! It such a beautiful song especially when she is Live. My only question is how was she soo prepared? Sarah Williams (background singers) was soo conveniently in place.
Just saw her last night at NJPAC. She killed. Such a rare talent with a practically perfect instrument, a treasure trove of technique, musical integrity and entrancing stage personality. Nothing but star light.
Every time I watch this I get chills. Her personality comes out so clearly, I love it. The nuances she puts into this version are so clean - that's pure talent!
I just want to say at the intro...whoever she was, she was playing the freak out that clarinet!!! Push through!!! I didn't notice it at first but 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Bring the soul back,such a multitalented,Beautiful vocalist her lyrics are her amazing gift to the world...You're a gifted singer ,who is doing what you were BORN to do,keep on blowing minds,Vocalist Extrodinare ,never ever let your spirit die ,your voice is flawless..
Wow, never heard of her before but she just insta converted me. Such a voice, and this intensity. Also really great concept you got there NPR. I'd definitely watch more "on field recording", I'm a huge tiny desk concert fan.
the next time you are on an old school video and people are complaining about lack of good music nowadays, just give them this Ledisi tune and it will be like giving a toddler his warm milk.
her voice/spirit touch my core, consistently. pitch perfect. incredible range. soulful. sassy. not to mention the accompanist is a beast. i'm trying to watch this at least once without smiling. haven't succeeded yet. guess i'll keep trying. =)
I saw her live along with melanie fiona. I love ledisi even more that women receives energy from the Gods awesome performance, phenomenal voice along with a beautiful personality!
I love love love this song and I love Ledisi. I have the perfect leading role for her in a screenplay I am developing. I will give you the person last name - Carter. If Ledisi is the singer I think she is, she will know exactly who I am taking about. You can hear the influence all up in Ledisi's music and style of singing. Ledisi is the only person I know that will do this role justice. I hope this post finds her. #peace
Everytime I see Ledisi, I tend to stick my chest out and proclaim "You know she's from Oakland" being a Bay Area native, she is treasured and ours, Bay stand up!!!!!
