Sampha - Jonathan L. Seagull 

This is genuinely one of the most beautiful songs I've ever listened to. Sampha is far too underrated !!!!!

When that beat drops and he starts singing, I swear it’s like nothing I’ve ever heard before! Literally amazing

I legit teared up to this song. Even if I was on my death bed Samphas voice would make me feel like everything is okay

this is acc one of the most emotionally compelling songs i’ve heard this year. we’re literally uniting in grief here, but in different ways. whatever you’re going through, we aren’t the same people so we’re gonna have our own ways of dealing with it. hopefully we find a solution. i’ve never felt this deep hearing a song before, something about the hook gives me the chills. this album was well worth the wait.

Laura Groves on backing vocals... Love her too. Sampha and Laura Groves = heaven!

Yeah this is the one. So beautiful and emotional, a real reflection on life and growth. One of the best songs to come out this year.

This might be the greatest song I’ve ever heard. I’ll never forget this album. This is one that I know I’ll always love

I read a book when I was a kid entitled Jonathan Livingston Seagull….. remembering the same feeling that I got from the book when I listen to this song………Freedom……Spiritual Peace

You can just tell this audible masterpiece was crafted w/ so much care....instrumentation, chords, main vocals, back ground vocals, the Mixing, the mastering, the dancing arpeggiators, that Fkn addictive bass line, all meshed with a poetic grade of lyricism... Sampa has truly brought back an essence of musicianship that I personally miss with current artist, today. Blessings, Lahai.

Best song on the album. That bass line was going crazy I could hear a little earth wind fire influence in the vocals

My favourite song on this album so far

02:32 - this part puts me into a trance😭

the switch ups on every song are so amazing 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

One of the greatest songs I've ever heard in my entire existence!

It's been so long since an album has wowed me. This is my favourite song I've heard in a long time. If you like this song you should definitely read the book.

Favorite song on the album. Hands down

This track is so unbelievable. The vocals are perfect, the lyrics are beautiful. The way the descending bass line introduces the drums so seamlessly. This is a masterpiece of a song.

This whole albums flows so wonderfully. A single song stands well on its own, but together it's just so magical.

What a beautiful tune illustrating our different paths through pain and healing. Wise track beautiful presentation

OMFG THAT MF BASELINE GOT ME IN SHAMBLES

Ever since I heard the reference to Jonathan Livingston Seagull in Spirit 2.0 I've wanted to read the book. Love you Sampha

Definitely one of the most heart touching songs i’ve ever listened to. I love you Sampha 🤍

Make sure you guys check out the book he named this song after!

Healing vibes. The soundtrack to every good thing that has happened in the last few awful months. So glad it’s doing the same for everyone else that hears it.

Thank you, Sampha, for gracing us with yet another mesmerizing song and a captivating album. The anticipation was wholly rewarded with your musical brilliance

"Even though we've been through the same Doesn't always mean we feel the same Doesn't always mean we heal the same" That's really beautiful.

Best song on the album no doubt

"This is the scene on Main Street when john 50 comes to town"🗣️🗣️🔥🔥

I think this is my favorite song. Brings me so much happiness.

This is insanely good. Those close harmonies. That bass melts in your ears. A great talent.

Sampha, thank you🧡

He's finally back

This song is so deep and cerebral i cant even bump it. Its like hard therapy. It leaves me crying for days. Omg this song is so beautiful. 😭😭😭

This one touched the soul Great album

I love the whole track but 3:12 is my favourite part. the harmony on "into your" is pretty tense, but it resolves so nicely Sampha's approach to chord progressions and harmony is so refreshing. this whole album is so refreshing.

Came straight to comments to see who else thought this song is so beautiful. Hope he stays inspired, need music like this

This album straight blew me away, and this track is one of many reasons why… Well Done!

got me floating, levitating, in awe.

Decided to listen to this album. Never listened to sampha but damn this is so beautiful 😭

Yep, it just don't get better than this. What a nourishing track

Thank you!

song of the year, song of the decade, song of the mofuckin CENTURY. Thank you Sampha Lahai Sisay

Listen to your heartbeat beat

My favourite at the moment. Gorgeous.

favorite song off the album cannot escape it dont want to

shoutout laura groves she’s got vocal credits on this one! if u like this u should check out her new album “radio red” sampha features on a couple tracks like “good intention” and “d 4 n”

anyone here after joon's rec? the song is beautiful

Crazy good. I hope this album will become a classic in the upcoming years.🙏

The chords, the baseline, the drums. Good ass song

3:11 heavenly

This is the one 💙💙💙

Intro definitely sounds like a combo of Back to the Future (pt.1) by D’Angelo and No One Knows Me Like the Piano

Favorite song of 2023 and 2024 hands down

This song is absolute🔥🔥 Both vocals and instrumental are top notch! ♥

showed my girlfriend this song, she cried at the end. truly a beautiful track.

This might b the best song ever

Namjoon, I love you. Tanks.

I loved this song already so imagine finding the same book in my mother’s house (which has a piano that knows me) by accident. Maktub.

this ones crazyy

Jesus christ this is amazing

Huge W

sensational

One of the very few songs that I can’t describe how beautiful it is. And the transition of the keys on 1:19 is divine

So much beauty in this❤🥹❤️

Best song on the album 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Everlasting art piece.

This tune is so soothing, Sampha really outdid himself on this album, this is MUSIC🤍

Amazing, stunning and unique

My fave!!!!! So beautiful

RM💜, Interesting sound of the song and the content, saying that sometimes the other person's behavior seems incomprehensible to them, but at the same time they realize that they were out of the right place emotionally. Interestingly, I noticed that the artist has a rare combination of three main fingerprint lines on his hand in the shape of the letter M. The letter "M" on the hand is a hallmark of... a pure soul, sixth sense, excellent intuition. people with this sign see possibilities where others do not see them.

He got me to read the book. 1:23 is just magic Sampha.

Beautiful

Wow.

omg✨💜

sampha has blessed our generation with a masterpiece of an album

What a beautiful song. Thank you Sampha.

This shit got me floating rn🥲🔥🔥🔥thanks Sampha frfr

This is the one man! This is the one

isso tá muito lindo!

I came on the recommendation of Namjoon from BTS, he liked you. And it went to me. Respect.

02:32 got me feeling like I'm waiting for my Mario kart online race. We love that.

Whole album 🔥

what a fucking masterpiece !!!!

D&B sounds wooooow! 👌

Even though we've been through same Doesn't always mean we feel the same (no-oh) Doesn't always mean we heal the same (ooh) You're not me and that's okay (that's okay) Seasons come (come), seasons cry (cry) Seasons grow and seasons die (oh-oh) How high can a bird ever fly-ever fly? Couldn't stomach those blues you articulate I've been (I've been) Acting like your actions are from outer space But I understand that I've been out of place Driving late night back home through the London rain to you I puzzle into your embrace Now take me further away I puzzle into your embrace Now take me further away Making life decisions based on what's been laid We've both dealt with loss and grief in separate ways (Listen to your heartbeat-beat) On the same track running at a different pace Will I catch up, or will you just race away someday? I puzzle into your embrace Now take me further away I puzzle into your embrace Now take me further away Even though we've been through same Doesn't always mean we feel the same (no-oh) Doesn't always mean we heal the same You're not me and that's okay (that's okay) Seasons come, seasons cry (cry) Seasons grow and seasons die (oh-oh) How high can a bird ever fly-ever fly?

Rated just right, his music is quite experimental in places for the mainstream, and fair play to him for experimenting. But that means he will get the views he gets and the attention he gets based on it. Not a bad thing imo.

Got the book and movie. Thank you Sampha! ✨

sampha is so underrated

Sampha is a huge inspiration to me and I WILL produce a song for him one day.

I’M A SEAGULL

Jonathan L. Seagull Lyrics [Chorus] Even though we've been through the same Doesn't always mean we feel the same (No-oh) Doesn't always mean we heal the same You are not me and that’s okay (That's okay) Seasons come (Seasons come), seasons cry (Cry) Seasons grow and seasons die (Oh-oh) How high can a bird ever fly? Ever fly? [Verse 1] Couldn't stomach those blues you articulate, I've been Acting like your actions are from outer space But I understand that I’ve been out of place Driving late night back home through the London rain to you
