Firstly, Genius I love your platform. I utilize your app almost everyday so thank you for that. Secondly, I'd been thinking about the lyrics to Bittersweet for a while & now I not only know the lyrics but the backdrop to the unfolding of Bittersweet. Lastly, Lianne you are a beautiful, beautiful gem. Excited for everything you're doing. Peace & Love.
Many people have already said what I was thinking as I watched. She is super talented as a guitar player and obviously as a vocalist, but she also seems like a great human being as well. I LOVE this song btw, and the instrumentation in the studio version is so killer! Keep the faith Lianne - peace & love!
She's such a gem! Discovering her music is wonderful and coming across her live performances is breath taking. Her voice has this beautiful way of swimming between small and sweet to powerful and intense very smoothly and with such command and grace. The best part is her song writing style matches her singing and her harp-like guitar playing so well that it all just melts into a surreal listening experience. Sometimes it's like the guitar is singing the words and her voice is the instrumental. It's no wonder her guitar bridges have a way of pulling you deeper which says a lot considering they often don't sound like the rest of the song yet resonate with the theme so strongly. What makes her truly exceptional is how her person resonates so much with her music.
I haven't bought an album in ages due to streaming services being so easy ans cheap, i need to do it properly this time and show support, not sure what artists get from spotify etc
Say no more. Just pre-ordered album. Will be released 7/17/20. Music for the soul. When I decided to wear my hair naturally, I surrounded myself with this type of music. It is needed for self-love.
this is like... the exact situation that I am in at this current moment. heartbreak feels terrible and is a state in which I wish nobody goes through ever. I wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemies. but things get better, our souls heal, we will find the light that was once diminished, and we will shine brighter than ever. to anyone that relates to this songs message, just know you're not alone in what you are feeling. everything is gonna be okay! :)
Damn yes. I've been enjoying the sheer beauty and life of that album in lockdown, listening during the walks we luckily were allowed as spring bloomed all around us... there's something so natural and ethereal about the music, I can't quite describe it. Maybe I was too caught up in the escapism, because hearing about the meaning now this, creatively, is exactly what I've been feeling. La Havas is a once-in-a-lifetime kind of artist, just incredible. Hats off for keeping going despite the world coming crashing down...
She is very beautiful and beautiful voises, have yeas what to accompany your run ,for me is genios.The firt time whow listing went in 2015 its change my life .
I cannot think of another artist that has the same presence as she does, unless it’s one of the great who has already passed away, because she is THAT GOOD!
I have gone through this but I was basically the guy in your situation. I wish I had seen this during the time because I got so much out of your explanation of this song and it made so much sense when you said about not being able to get through to that person, they weren’t answering or weren’t saying anything because they couldn’t face it and I never thought of it that way, feel like I could have avoided hurting myself more and made the process of moving on a bit easier and quicker, I’m currently recording a cover of your song ‘bittersweet’ because I resonate with it so much and the emotions are very much relatable, your music and songwriting is beautiful and can’t wait to see this able be released and hopefully see it performed live at some point in the near future!
