I think Erykah Badu and Mary J. Blige did an excellent job with Roy Ayers song. They both took this song and after listening to both versions, it will have you in two different moods. They both are on my playlist on the ipod. I jog to mary j version and cool down on Erykah version.
There is a Roy + Erykah duet version of this song that is too amazing to fathom! Seriously it's mind blowing I also like very much this remake by Erykah! Good upload
"u must read this. once u have started there is no turning back. a little 10 year old girl was raped and murderded in 1945. her body was not found until 1947. then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him. if you do not copy and paste this onto 10 vidoes in 30 minutes the dead girl will apear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you. well you better start to copy and paste to be saved"
@SpankRamen2 Foreal, seriously she the frinkin truth, the Goddess Modosa, the most beautiful of all women, the Standard nigga, the standard of beauty before the Gods and Goddesses where put to sleep, but we are in a state to rise and she is ushering us in, many blessing and energy given!
I think this is a realy good attempt at a cover. Her voice translates well. Some songs are meant to be 'men's songs' as in a man singing them to a woman, but they can also be the reverse and this proves my point.
haha I actually got it a month ago. I had to travel all the way to the city to find the one copy they had at the store.. but I'd go to japan just to buy an erykah badu album.
THANKS GILACH.....DIFFERENT VERSION ERICA IS GREAT...THANKS AGAIN...
