@jnyerere thats his prerogative .. some people like there coffee with cream, others with sugar others just black and strong .. we are all Gods children ; )
Music! REAL MUSIC!! Love this song, this album, as well as his new one "Stone Rollin'"!! I love this return to the Motown style that Raphael is on right now - very refreshing in this time of boring, blah-blah-blah corporate rap and pop music!
the 1st chick in vid kept swinging her hair like shes afraid for the camera to see her dam face. she should be used to attention. "dont you hate a shy bi@#h"?
@dfiorilli1952 I know what you mean. When I heard this song in The Record Shop, I had the Headphones on and I my head kept bopping up and down to the music. I was so into it, I didn't even realize that a lady was waiting for me to finish. I apologized but she was very nice and understanding about it. : - D
I'm 28 and I gave to say kids today don't know what music is. I remember my mom playing the temptations, dramatics, chi-lites, etc. when I was a kid and to me this is good music. You can fall in love to this music. I played this song in the house grabbed my wife and danced with her. Thanks Raphael, you're one of the best.
@scottyrob82 I hate comments like this. I, too, am 28 and was exposed to the same music you were. How about you be the one to introduce the kids to good music instead of complaining that they don't know what it is. It's not like you're 80 and the best days of your life have already passed you by along with all of the good music. Please, for the love of all that is holy, just enjoy the music without knocking the... how do you say? Young'uns.
@tempodelavie actaully kellz did it first .. no competition just saying. go back to the chocolate factory album. watch a few of those videos. if not mistaken probably even before that album.
@wallywoop actaully kellz did it first .. no competition just saying. go back to the chocolate factory album. watch a few of those videos. if not mistaken probably even before that album. @temp
first heard this tune about 2 years ago. He was giving an interview on a radio station on long island. Glad to hear he is trying to bring back the old motown sounds !! Love this tune, great to dance to.. :-)
@TonygMus2 You ain't never lied! This reminds me of when Tony! Toni! Toné! did "Thinkin' Of You", that straight sounded like old school Al Green! I like it!
man this is a good song like seriously it takes you bak to when music was about something not about sex but real love decribing wat he feels about this girl
@Chocol8BodaciousBrat He's a smooth dude and his style of dressing is very very unique..Very underrated guy, but im glad some women take notice of what I like to call a "Good Man" with a good hear and soul
It's great to hear good old school music for once. It's even better to read the comments and not see "that girl is so hot" and all that other kind of stuff.
This is what you call music ...not what we have out today with that auto tune shit smh GARBAGE example:lil wayne, soulja boy...this can go on and on =)
@Suo35 I originally said it based on the show but I came across what you just stated recently and had forgotten that I even posted on this vid. She's therefore disqualified, yet this song will last longer than the candy assed show.
check out R. Kelly's new album Love Letter, now streaming on Facebook! like Raphael Saadiq's last album (which i loved) it's got a 60's throwback soul feel to it, and i gotta say i'm really impressed with R. Kelly taking this direction.
check it out on Facebook! all you have to do is like R. Kelly's page and you can hear the entire album!
@chj2 oh, i'm just being silly for the most part. the video is fun... he's also singing that he loves "that girl" and yet he sings that to 3 different women. don't get me wrong... i'm objectifying Raphael, myself.
@CaileenBrandt It's only one girl sillies lol the other girl is just a part of their group. They give close-ups to her and other people in the band lol
@CaileenBrandt Just curious - what are the, "so many things" you find wrong with this video? I think the video is just fine as it is. It's got an old-school Motown/Stax Records vibe to it.
I heard this song continuously at my place of work and could not find it to save my life for so long. The problem was I was looking for Classic R&B. It's shocking to see a song like this was made in this decade, and I strongly hope, as others have commented, that this style of music makes a resurgence.
I used to hear this song being played on LATE radio around 2008, 2009, and I was instantly drawn to its sound...It was so different and yet refreshing from all other things I was hearing!
haha, well. Past the catchy musical vibe my quote had. I wasn't giving it too much philosophical merit. But, face doesen't have to just mean physically. If her face value is beautiful. Her attitude, and mindset are beautiful. Then whats race? i'm glad you called me out on that. So I could cover my point more efficiently. :)
@therealslimshady009 No they don't. Stay in your lane. Sick of collaborations (moderation is good, but people are beating this horse to death), it takes away the authenticity and the integrity of your individual sound.
Got to see him on the Summerstage Concert series at Central Park yesterday. He was amazing and the crowd was loving it. And this tune is like a 60s classic in the new millenium.
I'm happy for Raphael as far as moving his career along as a solo artist. However, from the many interviews that i have seen of him, he always puts down the notion of ever working with Toney, Toni, Tone again. Its sad that they will never ever rekindle the magic that they once had. Whatever happened other then the typical money issues must have been very bad. He dismisses working with them again very adamently. Its like in some way or form, a bad breakup.
