This live version is everything.

[pharmacist2020]

[jadekay08]

@pharmacist2020 :O How coulldddd yooooooooooooooooooooouuu!! lol ( i joke )

[guaik07]

magnifique

[PrettyTiaF]

lol she looks like a muchkin! She kind of looks like Rudy Huxtable in this pic..

[jesster816]

YES! you better be an artist and saang!! I love you Janelle, thank you for being what music needs right now

[LindalIrvin]

1 person needs to go.

[ILoveLifeandYou]

@LindalIrvin to nirvana?

[KaMiiXprezz012]

Whyy...would that 1 dislike be there tho? like are u not happy with your life of something??? This song is so Stunning ! smh.

[iSethCook]

I'm really sad that someone dislikes this. :( Prettiest album/song/voice/person ever! That person needs to say they'll go delete their account to get rid of that dislike! :P

[Nautilus1972]

@iSethCook It's not THAT good. In fact as pseudo-jazz goes it's pretty stock. You young uns should listen to some Minnie Ripperton and Stevie Wonder 71-76.

[iSethCook]

@Nautilus1972 Compared to most main stream artists in the world now, this is pretty amazing. And those two are really good too, but I'm just saying she is probably the best new(ish) artist in the world right now. You need to listen to 'The ArchAndroid' if you haven't! It's ridiculously amazing :)

[RomanRoyale]

@iSethCook Janelle is amazing!!I love me some Minnie and Stevie as well but we need people from OUR generation to love and not only as a Jazz Artist as an Artist period she is AMAZING.The ArchAndroid plays like,,,a dream movie inside my head everytime i play it(which is a lot) I dont do drugs but when I listen to any of her songs im like "so this is what Being High must feel like" its just..heavenly

[iSethCook]

@RomanRoyale I love some good jazz music! :) Like what's popular now is all electronic stuff. It's cool, but it's not really real music (in my opinion). And yeah, I've listened to this album countless times and will have it until the day I die. :)

[zacharyctatom]

Next Doctor Who companion right here.

[marqik]

wow, again

[Afroblack379]

she should either be trusted to make the music for the next 007, Disney, or pixar. you know, cause those sound tracks are always a big deal, and i dont see anything wrong lookin at her like a Chris Cornell or even an Elton John already. Shes got the stuff.

[iwapelebrown]

She OFTEN has some "reference riff" of songs I love, in her music.I love that! This song definitely has a "This Place Hotel" riff in it! Her influences are some of the world's greatest musicians! Can't blame her for wanting to continue that greatness! Her music is not "jazz" but her and the band utilizes a jazz philosophy, which allows them to expound and variate on music foundations previously set/created resulting in something respectfully reminiscent, yet new and fresh.

[TjuhuTiy]

Lovin' the jazz with the classical background music, Is that Lizt...?! Wow, and, it's Claire de Lune...my unprecedented favorite piano piece...because not only do I love it, I can actually play this one...WOW! Okay, Janelle Monae!! You da girl!!

[JammyGirl06]

I want the instrumental version of this album! It's really like a cinematic film on disc. The visuals are amazing.

[DatShortKid]

I love how it ends with clare de lune

[QueenAnime99]

Holy cow, she really does have a beautiful, timeless voice.

[blacksncommercials]

I love her

[cHaMeLeOn120]

Why is she so gorgeous? Physically, musically, spiritually... <3

[KLaTV]

I need. These. Earrings.

[DatniggaHuG]

it sounds familiar cuz its uses a michael jackson bassline, the piano is staight from a mke song, cant remember which one. Great how mikes music live o

[rtoriq]

@DatniggaHuG i think you're probably thinking Heartbreak Hotel. And this live version is so damn cool....

[dismissed7]

@DatniggaHuG sounds like heartbreak hotel...

[DatniggaHuG]

it sounds familiar cuz its uses a michael jackson bassline, the piano is staight from a mke song, cant remember which one. Great how mikes music live on...

[VinceVolta]

Beautifully done! Her music will always be a part of my heart.

[hexhelios]

i would be so greatful if you could also upload the Cold War performance. That was one of my favorites so far. it sounded so great live , this one as well, as is standard of Janelle.

Either way, thanks for this upload. i will enjoy it so much.

[fiddlercrab3]

What is that piano referencing at 4:27 and again at 4:58 ? It's so familiar...

Janelle Monae is my favorite new artist, period.

[morrieman]

@fiddlercrab3 Clair de Lune by Claude Debussy

[fiddlercrab3]

@morrieman THANK you! I knew I wasn't going crazy! What a class act this girl is.

[lilhavin]

@fiddlercrab3 I see I wasn't the only one ;-)

[honeyNbees]

@fiddlercrab3

yeah it totally sounds familiar.

is it casper? haha

[MrTkaczu]

best song on "ArchAndroid"...

[ChalleBrown]

@MrTkaczu I agree...........one of my favorites because there are a few.

[lilhavin]

@MrTkaczu I can agree and disagree at the same time. (Due to the fact that all the songs on the CD are my favorite) lol

[MrTkaczu]

@lilhavin ^^ Yes everyl song is different and great, but still this is my favorite song... I fall in love with the songs in the same manner as in women :D This song is not seduced me from the first time; Now, whenever I listen to it, finding something new - in me, in a song... is a wonderful, perfect - especially in this version :)

[lilhavin]

@MrTkaczu D*MN WELL SAID! I can totally relate to everything you just said. That's amazing because I feel the same (in regard to you interpreting music to women) but I wouldn't have been able to explain in great detail the way you did.

[MrTkaczu]

@lilhavin :) still do not see on youtube a good cover version - so I'm sure that's not the song itself is so wonderful ;-)

[RomanRoyale]

@MrTkaczu YES I LISTEN TO IT EVERY EVERY EVERY EVERY DAY!!!lol sorry that i just stuttered like nicki minaj lol

[MrTkaczu]

@RomanRoyale omg, nicki minaj...

[jakerzoe]

[snowinmoscow]
