Marsha Ambrosius - Butterflies (2011) - Late Nights & Early Mornings

[hollacesmommy]

maesha wrote this somg for mj years ago. i like the floetry version better cuz its more exotic. me n a flame could komda slow grind to kt on the dance floor. very sexy!

[shegentle]

I like the Floetry version better. It even sounds better than the MJ version.

[2entrygue]

Micheal sings it better....... js

[ebeledi]

Marsha wrote it ...but Michael rearranged it and made it HIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[almasry]

That's a cute version too, makes me wanna rock it.

[lilmizzdimma]

She wrote that song for MJ , l love both songs <3

[uspreacher1]

Micheals harmonies and back chorus is what separates the two songs, but both are 1derful. There is a difference though.

[bastibone1234]

@uspreacher1 marsha does the background on MJ piece

[OjelolaFasakin]

What many people don't seem to know is that Marsha WROTE this song.

[gabrielgray69]

I love both versions. I don't care who had it. The lyrics are great. And both Michael and Marsha's version are done in unique ways.

[bastibone1234]

@gabrielgray69 true that

[eza1]

People are mad because she is talented she wrote the track she is probably the most underrated singer that has ever come from england since Misha Paris and Omar she is definatly a gem she is producer and a song writer not just a rapper

[nicolemclean]

I love this remix. I first heard this song when MJ did it. I liked it. Until I heard the Floetry version... and then I loved it. But this remix is HOT!! Marsha is a very talented lady and I pray for her continued success in an industry that can be really difficult. Get it Marsha! I am definitely a fan.

[pistolc08]

people dont realize that she wrote this song fo MJ #jussayin do your research b4 u bash

[realtalk293]

i first heard this on the radio quite a while back, if music like this is still getting air play and not even brought out as a single then my friends... there is still hope for good music to live on!!

[evahill38]

This song was not a work in progress when Michael heard it, the song was already done and recorded. the original version by Floetry was done in like 98 or 99 Michael just loved the song and wanted to record it for Invincible. I think this version was just in tribute to him. i don't really like this remixed version but i love her voice, Floerty's Live version is the BEST listen to that then you'll truly understand why he wanted this song for his album

[hmango1]

Marsha is looking so beautiful recently! I love this tune too much...Loving this version...Thanx for sharing xxx

[Ms4everMindless]

Floetry Had This Before Michael Jackson , Marsha Ambrosius Was In Floetry , So Techinally Marsha Had This Way Before Michael

[hmango1]

@Ms4everMindless Marsha wrote it and sent off a rough demo to Jackson who snapped it up immediately....I prefer the original any day...Go Marsha!!

[The1mrdaniel]

ok for the people who dont belive she wrote butterflies watch Marsha Ambrosius Live At KISS 101.7 on youtube and hear her tell u shewrote it herself facts speak

[LeMnwalkr]

What a talented girl! But I prefer MJ's

[ohmphthschwrhu]

@LeMnwalkr but listen to the pitch difference and its surprising that her tone is the truer intent and lower than michaels'.i like how her butterflies keeps you eye to eye and not as 'anxious' about the 'butterflies as michaels rendition.love michael still but props to the originator.she seem to greet tense situations with level headed enthusiasm.

[LeMnwalkr]

@ohmphthschwrhu I feel like Michael's version is more original, well, to me it's magical. Both versions are really different so I can really compare them. So, let's enjoy them!

[msyazzyj30]

she didn't INTENTIONALLY write the song for MJ. The song was a work in progress and he heard it and called Floetry, when they were a group, and asked for the song. Blessing in disguise I tell you. I love Marsha!!

[TheAmayaM]

Listen to this ALL Day!!!!! Too good for words Marsha, way too good.

[Missbre295]

I like her version of this song!!!!!

[BlaqHQ]

Never heard of her but love this song.  It's upbeat, charismatic and lifts my spirit

[c2ama]

didn't Marsha wrote this song for MJ??

[MrSexiiass96]

@c2ama yeaaa and she even directed him how to sing the song :)

[therockstar76]

damn her voice just gives me chills... it was indeed a pleasure sharing the stage with her, who better to remake this song then the writer herself

[CH3LS3A2013]

i raped tht replay button! i looove how she sung this!

[hatersmindurbizness]

LOVE THIS SONG!! Floetry did a nice job... but MJ killed it!!

[ivantheguitar]

oh how i love this rendition. I'm so happy she sang this song. She's a wonderful writer and composer. I just wish that the two of them (Marsha and Michael) would have sang this song together. It would have been a beautiful duet. :)

[MrSexiiass96]

@ivantheguitar she did all the female backing vocals and sung the chorus with him :)

[acjhns21]

This is nice but michael's remix version of this is the best hands down, especially eve's beginning lyrics.

[TayeDizzle]

She wrote & Did backup vocals for the Michael Jackson version for anyone who didn't know.

[graft421]

i got butterfliies because she is the truth people open up your mind marsha came back and she is a BEAST COMING BACK WITH A FORCE TO BE RECKON WITH CINCY LOVES U

[prettygurlsrock14]

omg herr song far away deserves a million views asap... I FREAKIING LOVEE HER !!!!!!!!

<3 <3 <3 :))

[coolhawk19]

Every version of Butterflies is AMAZING

[DollFaceVixen14]

LOOK PPL WHO CARES WHO VERSION WAS BETTER AT LEAST WE GOT A MALE AND FEMALE VERSION BOTH ARE GOOD. SO SHUT THE FUCK UP AND ENJOY THE MUSIC, CAUSE SHE CAN SING!

[theszamuel94]

she's so beautifull

[Jalenturner360]

I like the Michael Jackson and floetry version better but this is a great rendition of this classic hit



[CouncilKylah]

nice

[jasminecollinsmusic1]

I would love to work with Marsha Ambrosius or Jill Scott because they're style of music uplift people and understandable and as i am growing up these beautiful talented woman inspired me to become a singer and they're so lyrical and their lyrics means something to somebody, you know. Jasmine

[pynklady11]

Love her version of a true classic #truetalent

[dbozeman1]

Wow love the comments everyone has on this (negative and good) Okay so what if Michael got it from her because it was specially written or not. Seriously the main thing about it is that the song is awesome both versions. I just love the fact that she remixed it for her album. I mean she is the writer so it doesn't matter if she did it first or Michael did both artists did an outstanding job on the song and they both figured out a way to make it their own!!!!!

[NewLogicEnt]

Man Michael Jacksons version is so much better then this....

[KTBEverlasting]

@NewLogicEnt It's aight

[queenb529]

this is a good song...she's mi idol

[tiyana0811]

this women expires me i wont to sing wif her

[KTBEverlasting]

@tiyana0811 Hopefully not expires since that means to come to an end. LOL. But she is an inspiration.

[KTBEverlasting]

This woman actually wrote "Butterflies" for MJ I can't say nothing else but...Underrated. She will be a legend to me even if no one else sees it.

[jaguarTN]

@KTBEverlasting Another comment of misinformation. She .. did ... not.

[KTBEverlasting]

@jaguarTN Uh...she...did. Or helped write it. Whatever you want to say. She participated in the process.

[cuzzins4life]

@KTBEverlasting yeah on the BET Award PreShow she said they wrote it together

[KTBEverlasting]

@cuzzins4life Well, jaguarTN is talkin about some "She didn't". He/She needs to get his facts straight.

[cuzzins4life]

@KTBEverlasting well idk what that person is talking about b/c she that on Sunday during the award show when she won the centric award and they were asking her about her album and things like that and then she just said she was so happy b/c she remember when she and michael wrote butterflies together and I highly doubt she'd lie about that lol

[The1mrdaniel]

lets get the facts right mj herd marsha sing it 1st and left a message on here answer fne sayin he wanted the sng as she said so on the monic show on bet thats how he made hes version.

[jaguarTN]

@The1mrdaniel Thank you! It annoys me when people speak before they know.

[brownsugah111]

this is good but the original is still the best tho

[michaeljacbabe15]

i LOVE michael jackson... and now i love marsha too! :D

[minidiva12x]

She sung this song wen she was in the group Floetry. I like like that version better

[tashah1000]

I love this version of buuterflies...she's a force to be reckoned with....

[weaboi1991]

Love both versions equally. Technically she mad the song before he sung it. As a music writer I know, she wrote it and introduced the demo to mj and he put his magic on the final outcome!!

[The1mrdaniel]

@weaboi1991 thank u keep posting true facts to these idiots

[Cdubya]

I like both versions, Michael's is better because of the slower beat and the kinda haunting way he sings it

[crazy4corbinbleux]

Michael's version is 100x better. But I was always dying to know who was doing the backup on his track, and I can't believe its her. How talented she is!

[crazy4corbinbleux]

Why does this sound SO SIMILIAR to Michael Jacksons Butterflies? *reads comments* She wrote it for him..? Omg.. I just gave 1000x more props to her. But sorry, Michael's is much better. But she made it for him. ;) Hands down to her.

[09DHK]

This version is amazing! @3:07 was executed beautifully!

[naturalylovelie2]

I love this music marsha is BADDDDDD ASSS!

[bosslady1971]

this is hot!

[ibm615o]

i like how she kinda flipped it (love those harmonies) but i hope there will not be a Part 7 of Butterflies..MJ's version, the one on the first Floetry album and this one will suffice

[BrooksLady90]

r.i.p Mj </3

[rickames]

I noticed her when i saw her with 'Floetry', but when she went on her on & i see this photo, DAMN SHE GOT IT GOING ON, & I like to hear her talk also.

[basfield197979]

She did it justice for real. Man the song explains the way I've been for so long to a T. I just hope she feels the same about me.

[ram77ny]

Hey this very nice.

.

[crazyman0686]

I love this version. I love her and Michael jackson

[xGeishaLTBx]

Omfg! she did her thangg on this track ! i love this so muchh

[yummidelish]

i like what she brings to the song

[paralegal54]

I like this song!

[Wpsfinest]

Youtube "marsha ambrosious michael jackson" and check out the video by soulculturemedia. She breaks down exactly how michael came to learn about butterflies. I just like ppl to know the verifiable truth. I love mj, but marsha wrote the song. She deserves her due credit from all who enjoy the music shes written.

[Wpsfinest]

Michael did not write this song. Im a HUGE MICHAEL FAN but i know he didnt write the song. Marsha wrote the song with Andre Harris. MJ heard it, got in contact with Marsha and said he wanted to do the song. He even used some of her vocals on the song bcuz he loved her voice so much. I love mj, but we cant give him credit for everything.

[nationalsecurity1021]

@Wpsfinest thanks for letting these people understand that :).. not ever song mj sung was written by him

[Khaos2418]

How could you NOT like this song???!!!

[Go0dFNTim3s12]

For everyone who thinks that Floerty made this, Just know, that Michael Jackson made this way before them, they revised it. Please get it right. The man hasn't even been out this world 5 years and people are already forgetting HIS songs. She is a great artist, but sorry folks, she didn't make this song.

[nationalsecurity1021]

@Go0dFNTim3s12 i understand what you ment. micheal jackson's version of this song is wonderful but marsha is the actual WRITER of the song.... it was her song origanally :)

[nationalsecurity1021]

@Go0dFNTim3s12 micheal made the song before marsha but she is the original writer of the song :)

[clubland459]

Nice.

[rephead]

Love this song! :)

[aabatteryful]

LOVE THIS SONG

[myhappyness1]

I like the new sound this song has. Marsha is a musicl genous. Her new music is outstanding.I can relate to these songs & that makes it even better. Nice mellow music I can sit in my backyard & listen to in the swing with a very nice drink. blessings to Marsha for more geat music.

[ladylum1]

@xhy20, thanks for posting. I like this version of butterflies.

[sdbyrd72]

TO: My Boo Perize Ortaize Hearn From: Sarena Byrd!!!!!

[michaeljamesj]

Deserve a video

[onBACKWARDS]

yes for those who did not know, Marsha originally wrote this song for Michael Jackson--and her former bandmate and her self (forming Floetry) also have a version of this song.

[BluFlowa220]

she actually wrote this for Michael Jackson himself :)

[Go0dFNTim3s12]

@BluFlowa220 Actually, Michael Jackson wrote this way before she re did it. Just thought you wanted the facts.

[cvc1814]

@Go0dFNTim3s12 MARSHA WROTE THIS GREAT SONG FOR THE KING

[jaguarTN]

@cvc1814 NO SHE DIDN'T. Where are you idiots getting your info? She explains how he got ahold of it in an interview. These comments like this are a perfect example of the spreading of misinformation! Get your facts straight!

[jaguarTN]

@BluFlowa220 No she didn't. He HEARD it and WANTED it. Get your facts straight.

[illisticrecords]

Cant believe how amazing this song is. It made me forget about the first one and I loved the first one Smh!!! The extra chords at the end with the drum role then the ride out SICKKKK!!!!! Wow....

[talla57]

Wow who ever didnt like this song your crazy....if michael jackson heard this he would be suprised to cause this song is great thumbs up times a million to this song and marsha ambrousius <3

[vipucee]
