I remember, about 4 years ago I had this presentation in front of my class, the topic was music and I chose RJD2, easy figured when I listen to this fine tune again. Later I even saw him live wich was truly majestic!
this is a scary beat, if i was locked in a pitch black room and this came on i would scream and start crying like a little girl LMAO no joke, because in my head there would be like 5 scary IT clowns going around in circles dancing to this song. BUT then after the song ends Ante Up by M.O.P. would come on and i Roy Jones Jr all those clowns like an O.G.
I wasn't even aware that this was a cover until I saw that I bookmarked Bless the Telephone on Pandora like, a year ago haha. I love both versions a LOT :3
This song just completely melts me away. The first time I heard this at a fraternity house at 4:30 in the morning, I was feeling odd. And this song just recaptures everything I feel about everything.
@ raener & daftrhetoric its hard to find a good music genre that has the same feel and creates the same ambiance as rjd2 or nujabes especially because of all the different beats and rhythems i wish i could travel to the east coast so i could expand my music selection please suggest other artists plase
@pandaLMT I was thinking about how RJD2 is a standout in my repertoire of taste, about what else might evoke similar feelings. Jun Seba was all I could come up with. This comment made my night.
this is cool and shit but i have to agree with those that say that Labi Siffre's original is a lot better, and i would usually side with the song with drums, but not in this case.
Damn. When I'm freaked out sometimes, I just listen to this song and forget what I've been worrying about. I feel this way about a few people... 5/5. Great vid.
i guess thats possible, i didnt know he sang this. listen "just a word or two. id like to do the same for you" he deffinately has a speech impediment.
I love it, but because it as such a creepy feel, with such a beautiful melody intertwined. To me it shows up as frustration mixed with finally feeling happy again. Cool song definitely though!
Wow. a truly appropriate response to the song. melodic and lilting in its visual scale. i like it very much. well done. hope the D2 man gets a glance at it.
@JacoBluezz i don't think so,labi sings it in a completely different key and different notes.even if rj did take the labi vocals and slowed them down and pitched them it would not sound like this.
the answer to your question turned out to be too long to fit in here but I enclosed the text in the updated info/video description, so please get the information there, ok?
uhmm..., original? like, by someone else...? the music's taken from the original cd "since we last spoke" by RJD2. is there an older original version by an other band? who?
Wow you're right, I just listened to it over Napster. In the live verson by rjd2, he uses the same intro as in the original version. Very interesting! Thanks a lot! :)
