  • Me'Shell NdegéOcello I will never learn this name.

  • Hell yeah! This is the shit!

  • I had the pleasure of meeting her at a bass clinic in Las Vegas years ago and she was a very down to earth person. Gay, straight, I would would bang the hell out of her!

  • I LOVE Meshell... this woman is a genious!! her choice of words, she speaks from the soul!! DEFF ONE OF A KIND!

  • ON REPEAT!!!

  • This is an awesome song... I dont care about her sexuality.. The music is off the chain... Work it out...

  • Her name means free like a bird. It's so fitting for her and her music. This lady seduces every part of your being, mind, body, spirit. She IS love. If the music industry had any sense at all, she would get the recognition she deserves and we, the people, would get the music we deserve. Not this bullish they churn out through their artist making copy machine

  • @tymeonmyhandz

    you nailed it. I could not of said it better. I am a major Ndegeocello fan. I have all of her work except the last cd. No body in history has done it like her. She writes, sings, plays, performs. She is spiritual, sexy, controversial, political, mystical. THE WOMAN IS THE TRUTH!!!

  • She is a gift from the heavens. Her music is penetrating. She gives it more than her all.

  • She is a gift from the heavens.

  • Sister is killing it on the bass ,on the groove. Listen to the tight production and arrangment !!! I can get high off the music without drinking or smoking.

  • she is awesome.

  • OMG!!!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE I FOUND IT! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS DAMN SONG FOR YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!! This song is the ONLY reason I bought the soundtrack. I was 13 when the movie came out but I fell in LOVE with this song. I would tell people about this song and they thought I was damn crazy b/c it couldn't be found. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU skillzxl!!! Now I just have to find the mp3 so I can add this to my music library.lol

  • Criminally underrated... she can groove, rock and croon as well as anyone... but unless you look like a supermodel or dress like a hooker you'll get thrown to the wayside by the average listener... makes you wonder how someone like Joni Mitchell or Patti Smith would do in the musical climate today...

  • this beat go hard i might rap over it

  • I still have the soundtrack with the song on it for the last 17 yrs. Love it!!!!!

  • love this SONG DAMMIT

  • I love her - she keeps me at peace.

  • I agree. I only bought the Higher Learning cd for this song. Actually, in the real musical community, she is rated as one of the top 100 American guitarists in the world. I was told this by a former engineer from Sony. She is thought to place at number 15 where the current (publicly) noted #15 now stands. Go figure. Awesome talent.

  • I loved this. It came out during a very enjoyable period in my life. I was already hooked on the Plantation Lullabies album that came before this, so it was a no-brainer to pick up on it. This song was the only reason for having the Higher Learning soundtrack.

  • This song is so damn gangsta!!

  • I'm thinking that it's a balance junk stuff and the wondrous. McDonald's or Basil Tofu at a local Mom & Pop Vietnamese -- right.

  • damn! I mean, damn!! This woman is unbelievable! I'm just at a loss for words. Soooo good.

  • another talent unrecognized it is a shame this is the kind of music thats real and that the music entertainment needs it makes me sad that she isn't getting the credit that she needs.one of the realest artist that i listen to

  • Besides the love & basketball track and today I did not know about this wonderful singer WHY? What the hell is going on in the music industry ?

  • ok this chik is talented... 1st track ive heard but i think her n erika badu wld be like jada kiss n styles p.... go girl!!!!!!!

  • This is the first song I heard from Meshell. I've been hooked ever since. Every cd she's made has been amazing &  her shows are unbelieveable!

  • mane she wrecked dat shit!!!

  • She's amazing!!!!!!!!

  • I was watching Higher Learning lastnight and heard this song,I totally forgot about this 1 here. She is so underrated it's a shame! Now this is talent! My kind of music!

  • I wanna feel you inside of me

  • "come into my darkend room....."if this isnt the most sensual, seductive, black love(cause i dont think the rest can past the test)....i dont kno what is......add the musik to tha lyrics and you got a soulgasim

  • Everytime I hear this song it makes me think of this guy from my past.Because this was the SHIT.Relating to her sexuallity today?If she came out with this-today?Its no way anyone could resist this Straight or bi.

    But as far as my man today?He knows whenever I play this song what time it is?

  • Youngsta's don't know nothing bout this here.

  • The most talented Woman on the planet... real talk

  • im watching higher learning rite now

  • Come here woman...give me what I want!

  • She is the Baddest Musician the girl is not from earth at all LOL. Sick indeed

    Lex

  • I think folks are SCARED of Meshell.... wow a true musical genius right... ughh she just too damn real for all yall fake ass bitches!!!! sorry Im MAD she's so underrated

  • @twentynothing

    I remember reading a Frank Zappa interview in which he commented the true excellence terrifies the fuck out of people. I think this applies to Me'shell's talents..

  • @twentynothing

    She too real for em. Me, I love her to death.

    Selam

  • One of my all time favorite songs, period, just heard this song about a year ago, was instantly hooked. She is one of the most overlooked artists in music.

  • heavenly good

  • This should be played on every radio slow jam, cd, and playlist!

  • This should be playec on every radio slow jam, cd, and playlist!

  • The perfect love making song

  • I heard this song once and was just hooked,looked for it all over and like someone else aptly said thank God for the net...thanks skillzxl for uploading this

  • I love Me'Shell's voice, her unique musical style, and the material that she present to us.

  • thank GOD for the internet!!! Took me forever to find this song. I've sung this song in my head sunce I heard it in 95 on the Higher Learning soundtrack. She's so underated it's ashame. Absolutly luv this song :-0

  • I love this song. It is so sexy.

  • I love me'shell!

  • That is one good song

  • damn good song

  • Who care's if she is a straight, gay/lesbian, or just not choosy? What does it matter we all feel her music the same way. People please stop worrying about who famous people are screwing and start worrying about who is screwing you!!!

  • @borninvegas72 thumbs up... Peace.

  • @borninvegas72 amen to that

  • @borninvegas72 that's right that's between her and God!!!!!

  • Real artists don't care about respect in the mainstream.....it's seeing all of the faces of your adoring fans in the crowd singing alog to the words of your songs...that is what moves an artist.....and she truly is the epitome of the word....

  • LOVE this song!!!!!

  • The best underrated song ever made

  • SOUL SEARCHIN.....don't nobody hold me ...don't nobody kiss me like you.....Meshell Ndegeocello is on point!!

  • One of the most powerful musical talents of our generation. Period.

  • She isn't a lesbian, she said she liikes men. Her "hardness" is just a form of expression. She's gotta feel it somehow. Like I wear hats every time I play. It's just expression

  • @JoshuaBRogers1 Not true. But, it doesn't matter. Her talent is so immence.

  • i love this song. her voice is amazing

  • lovely

  • One of my favorite artists of ALL time. For me, she's up there with Stevie Wonder, Prince and Luther Vandross. No one can touch her artistry.

  • She is the complete package period! She can write it, play it, sing it and arrange it. Need I say more. I just wish she would do more soul and jazz.

  • HOTNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Easily the best track off the album and as always under utilized and realize. Me'shell is nothing but the absolute...TRUTH! I love Jill Scott, Eryka etc; but Meshell is the one who started the movement. No one's done it longer or better over a longer period of time.

  • Aww come on. Why didn't she get the respect she deserves? She can sing and play the bass... :(

  • R&B is hurting now It people are looking for it its the truth but it return.

    Underrated song should have gotten more airplay in Chicago in 1995

  • my last year of high school. I graduated and had just moved to hawaii when me and my mom relocated and I was going back and forth on those long ass flights from Honolulu to L.A. and i would jam this song over and over non stop. Sitting first class starring out into the darkness playing this on my head phones gazing at the starry sky and the sea below. MEMORIES.

  • what an awesome talent!

  • what an awesome talent!

  • This track is off the chain!! I'm feelin'this and it's the 1st time I heard it.

  • @steelo916 yes, i was in my last year of high school when this soundtrack came out. and this song was my favorit, along with Raphael Saadig "Ask of You" from this same soundtrack. Look that one up to in case you havent heard it.

  • I love her!!!!!!

  • I was searching for this song for years. I used to listen to it in my car back in the 90's and I have some great memories attached to it, just cruising in my car with the top down. Somehow I confused it with Outside your door and I couldn't figure out what this song was to save my life. Just now, I clicked on it at random, and this is it. Thanks for posting it up. Found at last.

  • I always loved this song. It's a shame that it didn't get the props it deserves.

  • Very nice. Dj Smooth

  • I love her music!!

  • she brought soul back to R&B in the 90's and jump started the careers of many artists we enjoy today.... ironc, BET banned her in the late 90's. They are watery anyway so that doesn't suprise me, what does is why she so.............. freakin' under rated!!!

  • @sassys35 why did they ban her from BET

  • I truly need to do someone to this song :)

  • @pcelayes..Thanks one must differentiate b/t the two Bass Player it is.

  • Is this a late night song or what?!

  • Love this girl.

  • i love her veryyyyyy hot song to have my way with my partner

  • Yes she was an army brat and her parents traveled a lot. Her father is/was a jazz musician and she went on with her music to evolve herself...She is a beautiful songstress excellent guitarist and I LOVE HER SO MUCH.

  • @LEGSUDESIRE Baaaass player! :)

  • I always here this song on 107.5 Detroit

  • this is the best, it takes me back!!!

  • You go Meshell! You are so talented even though you're not getting the amount of recognition you deserve! I'm your no# 1 fan in S.A

  • This song is a must have

  • She's so badass. It is a shame that she didn't/doesn't get the respect she deserves. I don't give a damn about her "butchness", she's got more talent under her finger nail than most of the other fem ladies.

  • @glittermethis amen

  • @glittermethis I agree with you a 100%

  • @glittermethis I couldn't agree more!

  • @glittermethis Maybe it's for the better Me'shell is a fairly well-kept secret, a super versatile artist with ubiquitous presence in almost every musical genre that only sincere fans like us appreciate, not a household name. For all her "butchness", I dare say she turns all kinds of ppl on, she's HOT in every sense of that colloquialism!! She is herself and never compromises to play the mainstream's "chic puppet", which is yet another admirable quality she has.

  • @glittermethis and it is ashame that she is judged for being openly gay but ellen dergeneres is welcome with open arms she is talented beyond words, this song and ask of you by ralphael saadiq was the reason i brought the higher learning cd

  • souuuuuuuuuuuul sista #1

  • this song is the epitome of sex..too bad she never go the respect she deserved due to her "butch" look...she's talented 4sho

  • I know. That kind of sucks.

    But I have to admit, she is the most masculine-like female singer I know of. She's like the complete opposite of Christina Milian, who is super-feminine.

  • @ghanboy She also is talentless which is the complete opposite of N'degeocello

  • @RavenTheePrincess you're right ndegeocello is much more talented.

  • And she's from Maryland, right in my backyard(I grew up in the Northern Virginia area close to D.C.)

  • @ghanboy no, she's from berlin, and raised in washington.

  • simply beautiful

  • this lady had alot of talent i love her stuff its unfortunate that she didnt capiulize on this i know she can blow all those neo soul artist out which copy cated from her anyway says uzipolo king of decatur

  • I SAW HIGHER LEARNING AND I'VE LOVED IT EVERY SINCE GOOD JOB ME'SHELL Ndegeocello.

  • I have to know what kind of bass synth that is. It is so badass that my computer speakers started dancing on my desk. I just found out about Meshell 5 minutes ago. Wow!

  • slept on classic

  • Been looking for this song since it first came out in 1995. Never knew the title of the song but knew who sung it. Great upload.

  • I love this song haven't heard this song in a long time

  • I've been looking for this song since Spring 2003. I tried to search using the "All I want is you" but could not find that song. Then I came across it on the movie "Higher Learning" this morning, got all the lyrics and looked it up, and here I am. I knew I'd find it some day.

  • Fabulous singing, great bass player, groovy beat, sensual music MeShell youre a star
