This live version of Jill Scott's "Golden" is so Golden...sometimes along life's way you need that something to move you beyond the depression...yes I pray and prayer is the power...but being a meager earthling it is so nice to hear this young Sistah sang her heart and lungs out...sang the song!

[nokolicious]

[dja4849]

DO MORE THAN JUST THESE WORDS

[dymeane73]

this how i live my life

[JNicety]

Make sure ya'll check out Carroll Riddick on background vocals... She's a crazy vocalist in her own right too...

[italia10588]

Shes the next Chaka, seriously.

I am in love with the philly sound, when I first started playing thats what I got heavily into. I play death metal music now but always find myself coming back to this. Starting on this was so vital to my playing.

[ozzdubar]

TRUE ARTIST!!!!!!!

[donmagicjuan1000]

WOW !!!!!! What a beautiful thought !!!

[b3aza]

4:26 hahaa

[Auntkekebaby]

[cuquee]

[jessypooh24]

As a christian, I still love this song b/c the contents in this song is what I will continue to do...LIVE MY LIFE LIKE IT'S GOLDEN BECAUSE IT IS GOLDEN!

[lickmyballs2113]

@jessypooh24 one time i sucked jesus's cock untill he busted in my mouth. all while santa claus was fuckin me in the butt. now thats what i call golden

[susanamoita22]

@lickmyballs2113 hahahahha!! class response!

[islezeus]

@jessypooh24 no one asked your religious affiliation

[jessypooh24]

@islezeus I know nobody asked me for my religious insight, but I never asked for your comment. I won't be like you and insult you, but rather pray for you. God bless you dearly.

[islezeus]

@jessypooh24 If you are a Christian, you don't have to shout it out for you to feel validated.

Not only Christians can appreciate this song and live their lives like they're golden... I'm not bashing you jessypooh24 but I am sick of persons just inserting their religious beliefs into every single thing! We get it, you're saved and going to heaven!

[susanamoita22]

@jessypooh24 LOL LOL LOL

Ma Man Eric "Booty" Greene on drums

philly stand up; i love ma city

[ziogustav]

what a groooooooooooove

[SCAGNETY]

CUUUUTE!!!

[andiejanefisher]

I always wondered how she could sing this song live. The studio version doesn't sound like she would have a chance to take a breath. This version is great with the backing singers singing the chorus and her singing solo over the top. Top tune. One of my favourites!

[20sanfoe]

whos on drums? I kno pete kuzma is on keys and adam blackstone on bass

[Detik2491]

sync!!

[pixulonko]

yeah finally!!

=D

[rathcooleposse]

jill all the way, love this gal

[pennskippy]

Peter Kuzma arranges some cuz but adam (bass) n bootz (kit) bring da flair to her sound and the experince live album that was e trib(kit) and terry (bass) makin a lot of dem changes

[bsimmons8888]

master class

[brokeandhungryxx]

MAn . this is amazin thanks for postin trunigga

[Guigo78]

do you guys know another song like the style of golden by jill? man i love this song golden

i listened to others songs of jill and i didn´t find greats songs just golden.

[mattingbeast]

didn't find great songs? every song on this CD is great!

personally, i like "gotta get up," off the experience cd. buy her first two cds, and just listen through them. i don't know how you could not like every song...

[kinecta77]

jill scott i love your that sound you make u go girl...

[bionikata]

I think woman like Jill Scott should be an inspiration not just to black women, but all women.....she just has a good sense about her and defintely gives off good vibes. she really enjoys performing. You can imagine her as a child with a brush in her hand pretending to be holding a mic. You know what, a bit chubby, full afro, and still a sexy woman.....Erica Badou' ish.......she gives it large and I love it!!!!

[lovethisong]

Well then!!It's not serious, i like him all the same and the voice also; it's my diva to me,amound others! Democratically speaking,it's my opinion. Thank you quite even.

[jaquen1977]

This woman is nothing short of a revelation.

[lovethisong]

wouhaou!! Very, very nice! thank you!

Jill Scott is very beautiful woman with a voice in platinium; what no gache nothing!

It's really my style of music! thank you diva.

[dejazzmon]

No, its mainly Peter Kuzma the keyboard player that arranges for her, he's also a genius he is the Jill Scott sound, he's the innovator behind the sound you hear.

[bassfag]

Adam Blackstone is just genius player , and what a great arranger. The arranges most of the Jill Scott Live stuff.

This is so great.

[mientememami]

I gotta say... I LOVE so many of these neo-soul singers (Erykah, Leela James, India Arie, etc.) but Jill is my favorite. Beautifully Human is a masterpiece.

[Giftedpraise]

HOLAY !!! emmmhm music

[choppzilla74]

Great stuff!

[moochdawg]

Does anybody know what the bass player's name is. I see him playin for alot of people, but I dont know his name. He's really tight.

[ocbfdog]

Adam Blackstone

[PersonalGord]

would be great if it was in sync

[natitg]

I think its the video, cuz her lips don't move as fast as the audio

[54spiritedwill54]

Great band with a marvellous arrangement!

[dstrong999]

Great video/song. But her lips remind me of one of those old kung fu movies.

[dbmill2005]

Drummer is Eric "Booty" Green

[GT4bandit]

whos the drummer??

[jorisfeiertag]

I think it's Erik Tribbett, he is the drummer of the album 'Experience'. He's great..

[GT4bandit]

Thanx, yeah hes gr8, his style is reminiscent of Gordon campbell?

[vivtron15]

Nah its Booty thats his nickname I don't kno his real name though!!

[thatsmypeanuts]

definately Booty, Eric Green

[keeshamayes]

Jill is amazing!

[theheritic209]

my mom basicly raised ME listning to jil scott and she never sounds bad she always sounds excellent. JILL SCOTT RULES!!!

[DgotC]

thherritic209 u r speakin the truth she has 2 b the best if that ain't music idk wat is

[themtb2003]

She grew up one of Jehovahs witnesses. This is where her being well grounded likely comes from. Unlike MJ, and Ja Rule and the Wayans (all former Jw's), she doesnt diss her faith of her youth. As a result, she stays well rounded.

[figi1000]

when she performs its gives me chills, shes a true woman of substance,grace, and freedom to be yourself. i love you jill

[dreammerchant1956]

she is golden

[CuteNCrazy2Be]

Jill = Chills! ! !

[moneymasterjet]

artist. voice. colors. freedom.

[naturalsystah]

excellent!

[AnonKeys]

Is that the band that played on her live album (experience: jill scott 826)?

[Mopreme75]

her new band is even better!!! check her vids on vh1 soulstage!!!!Adam Blackstone + Spanky= Beasts

[honeegrrl]

The band is hot. And I heard that her first love is actually poetry.

[ucookies]

Jill Scott is the bomb and so is the band. Awesome!!!

[Aplustradomus]

The bass player looklike my dude from the Chi..The band is crazy..

[Ayers76]

GROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE!!!

[Aplustradomus]

awesome groove..a great skating song..

[arnbri]

i try to listen to this song in the mornings to get me started on my day... a great reminder to live instead of getting caught up in unnecessary dramas... thanks for sharing this. i don't mean any disrespect by posting here, but i'm trying to get my hustle on, lol... for those of you reading this, i'm applying for the opportunity to be diddy's new assistant. please click on my name and view my video interview. i'd really appreciate the support. please vote for me!!! peace and blessings.

[nurikara]

i love jill scott.

[Rsanaa]

I love this...but this video needs to be uploaded again with the video & audio synchronized.

[kindallp]

Love this Song. Jill Scott got going on .

[adantra2]

rachelle ferrell is so much better than her!!!

[Clacci34]

You can put them in the same category. It is room enough for both of them.

[adantra2]

nope. rachelle ferrell is in a higher category.

[Clacci34]

Ok,I agree she is a better singer. Jill Scott is a house hold name. Rachelle is not, sorry. There both from Philly so that makes me proud! PHILLY STAND UP!!

[adantra2]

yes but i don't think fame is the basis of talent. rachelle is really much better. what's PHILLY?

[Clacci34]

You are from the Philippines, ok that makes sense.

Philadelphia, PA, America.

Done with the back and forth, just glad you are a fan of true music. Its all love.

[adantra2]

are you pertaining to me?

[ocbfdog]

Jill will hull Rachelle.

[adantra2]

rachelle is much better. period.

[sparxes02]

who is rachelle?

[Karinobminor]

Read BoneRangers Comment and I wish U Heaven.

Both are becoming legends while common people are trying to divide these inspirations.

[TheBoneRanger1968]

There should be no comparing of EQUALLY GREAT vocalists. Especially two as young as this. How would you compare Dianah Washington with Sarah Vaughn? What they do is insure that the art progresses. That is all that really matters. Peace!

[SoulByDzyne]

What an EXCLUSIVELY SPECIAL VERSION of GOLDEN!

Keep Livin' it Jill! LOVE!

[thisisntme]

When will YouTube learn to properly sync the video with audio, the music is awesome, but it's difficult to pay attention to.

[whuataaaaah]

upper left corner....RTL4 ???? that is a dutch channel hehehe luv JIll, holland holland holland!

[AfroBelle]

sick, sick, sick

[tmoney519]

That band is killin it, no doubt

[tajmabruno]

Brilliant woman! This song is so powerful and it is my personal anthem! I love Jill Scott and although she doesn't get the credit that she deserves her talent can not be denied. One of the best singers of our time.

[vivtron15]

That music is sooo sooo sick.

[urbansoulbrotha]

jill epitomizes everything that's beautiful about black women; no ... ALL women.  keep doing your thang, sista!

[ocbfdog]

Booty killin' wit one tom.  That's a real drummer there.

[boysontheradio]

SHE IS THE SHIT. PERIOD.

[diante2004]

Jill doing it big, thats my girl!

[SimplyPoetik]

Red afro and all...She's still the most original diva I know...

[VinceCharles]

My nig Booty on the kit! Fire! thats philly on the map like we never left

[ocbfdog]

Adam is killin' on that fretless

[damuzachi]

very jazzy and awesome

[ninosimone]

that song made such a difference in my life when i first heard it, my life has changed from that point on .

[mrkronk]

Agreed. This Band is sick, mad chops.

[mariobaez]

wow her band (forgot their name) might be the tightest band ever. i think its called fat back taffy, and the bassist and drummer are brothers (this was during her first album tour). amazing voice

[lyricsoulchild]

jill scott is my best soul diva. GOB bless U.

[SeraphimLady]

God bless her and all her wonderful talents. The band is tight and gets ya in the groove! Jill Scott is inspirational, I just love her!

[Disha01]

i sang this song to my whole school

[bubadub]

Thankyou Jill. Music wouldn't be the same without you... peace and blessings.

[cinnabunz32]

that's right girl!!! sing it
