@janetman1 Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, so so so much for posting this! I've been looking for this rendition for a couple years now & could never find it. Please keep posting awesome performances like this treasure, which is rare & hard to find.
Jill is one of the few artist I prefer to sing live. I think this song exemplifies why! Her performance makes me want to shout and hit someone! Anyone notice homegirl was feelin' the groove at 2:06 and goes in on the violin at 3:00?
My face was all scrunched up when she was done.. In a GREAT way. You know the music and lyrics are good when you make the ugliest face & chills are forming all over your body! Whewww!
the is rare she good but after the real thing tour i never heard her sing this way any more its like she just singing nothin extra. i seen her on the light of the sun tour and she only sung this song like this and that was at the end of the show
Saw her do this version live at the Tower Theatre in Philly..and all I could do when she was done..was...stand up and clap as loud as I could..(mouth agape) Phenomenal woman, Indeed!
Jill, honey, you absolutely MURDERED this song in the best way possible.
Unfortunately I want to ABSOLUTELY COMMEND THE WONDERFUL STUDENTS WHO ARE PLAYING AMAZINGLY IN THE BACKGROUND!!!!
It seems like people have forgotten that they are there, and that they were playing their souls that night. They're probably high school students and younger, and still they're performance was breathtaking. From one music loving student to the next, they're performance was truly inspirational <3
By Far... The best performance of Jill.... This IS what music is supposed to do... its supposed to make you feel free and do whatever with your expression... you don't need all of the materialistic things to convey an emotion through music.... <3 I love Jill.
LOVIN' THE STRINGS! THIS IS MUSIC AT ITS' BEST! Clearly Lyzel messed up. Just listening to this song. Jill was sooo deeply in love with him. I pray that Jill finds a man that is worthy of her love.
There are singers and then there are the ARTISTS, who have the ability to make us feel every emotion of any song that they sing. Those singers, we all know who they are and that is all most will ever be. They will never rise to greatest of Jill Scott and others like her... They are the ARTISTS the rest are just play .
JILL SCOTT IS SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!!! I watched the Beyonce rendition and had the urge to come to this song obviously! I love Jill Scott, nothing stopping her!!! I'm in love!
Others were propped up around the time she came out. She wasn't on The Roots song, the part she wrote! Cut the crap! Stop hiding Jill Scott. Image consumers are missing out. She's beautiful and talented. She's amazing!!
@icecreemz ha straight up or like some people wuld say that person was smokin somethin and had there lap topp side down, lol cause how can u dislike anything of jill scotts lol
Some of the liveshows vocals i've seen dont quite deliver as the albums do but this one was just phew.. Exquisite! Best performance I've seen from her, so free and full of emotion.
Continued.......There's some many others I feel the same way about in their own right but; Jill Scott is one of those rare talents that come along like a Prince, Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway, Minster Thomas Anthony Whitfield, Marvin Gaye, Michael Jackson, and many others that I cant name. They just make you sit back in amazement, speechless of words & some times cause you to be drawn to tears. Much & Mad Love Ms. Jill Scott
Continued.......Not only is she one of the most B-E-A-U-TIFUL ladies in the industry. Her ability to deliver a performance such as this & many others is paralleled to none. Now does that mean anyone else in the industry isn't on her level, does that mean that they can't sing as well as her? NO IT DOESN'T!!!!!!!!!! All that means is that I'm just some what partial to her.
Let me just say this as I watch this once again as I comment on this Wonderful, Extraordinarily, Outstanding, Most Glorious Lady Ms Jill Scott whom I feel is talented beyond our understanding & to a degree that can't be match be none. Not only is she one of the most B-E-A-U-TIFUL ladies in the industry. Her ability to deliver a performance such as this & many others is paralleled to none. Continued.........
I would like to give a big "Thank You" to whoever posted this! )I have literally been looking for this rendition for years. I remember when she sang this!!! (I believe it was the Lady of Soul Awards.Tears are literally running down my face rightg now. This is talent, passion and a gift wrapped all in one!!!
She was cheated that year as well during the award season. Who is Jill Scott was 50 times better than Songs in A Minor. Jill is the most!!
Jill, my girl... she's just a BEAUTIFUL, Soulful, Inspirational Woman - and Thank God, she just happens to be a Beautiful Black Woman; what an honour & blessing to our Race...!!!
ab"soul"lutely inspiring!!! Her spirit is so beautiful!!! it shows in every note she sings!!! Thank you for posting this inspiration! Jill, Thank God for you!!
Something I thought about while watching this AMAZING video was my favorite artists. Beyonce & Mariah Carey to me are great commercial singers. Commercial like everybody knows their name. Everything is organized and well rehearsed before their performance, So rehearsed it isn't natural. It isn't as natural as a performance from Jill Scott, Mary J. Blige, Fantasia, etc. But they are all great singers.
@LasandraAdorn i agree which is why i dont understand why ppl bash beyonce all the time no1 can sa she cannot sing well she is just too polished sometimes unlike ppl like ledisi or chrissete michelle and the ppl u mentioned
the best version by far she is a beast. hands down
