[deemoe7301]

Supreme Soulstice - you hit the nail right on the head! I totally agree with you. You can't let commercial radio dictate what you listen to. You have to search for those great creative, eclectic artist such as Eric Roberson.

[Darcelectric]

It made me cry...Am I growing too sensitive? Hmmm, nah...I'm feeling lol. I'm feeling this song and the emotions Eric expresses.

[honeybrwngrl]

Classic & timeless...

[sbgal13]

algebra what happened

[mzhart2010]

This song is so cool.

[superwomanjones]

wooooooo hooooooo! :)

[theloveinus]

Eric is an amazing vocalist. I definitely dig his music, his music is much along the lines of Marsha Ambrosius. Her new song, "Hope She Cheats On You (With A Basketball Player)" is amazing! Have you guys heard it yet?

[babiegyrle679]

One of the best artists ever!!

[ericalane11]

I love this dude..true storyteller

[UnknownsDarkSide]

Kev Brown on the beat. Low Budget stand up.

[easonglobal]

Saw this man last night at Ben's Chili Bowl in Washington DC. A real class act. Gave me an autograph!!!

[goongie31]

This is banger.. wow Don't understand why we (public) don't know about Eric Roberson. One of the most talented dudes I've heard in a minute

[ctoler1920]

[MsCali5000]

"i have to lie to myself just to keep me smiling" true words

[KaydeeSMKG]

Love this song, lyrics r deeep xx

[JoeDena77]

[PoeticAmazon]

This song evokes the emotions that I sometimes don't cater to. He needs to be SLAAAAAAAPPED. This song is like... perfect. Honestly.

[auteur26]

My favorite song from the Left Album...I have never seen this before...cool !!!!

[mpenny226]

This brotha is just so talented!!!! 

[MsMo08]

[SuckaFreeSista1313]

[BiggKev100]

Benn a fan for awhile, and his style is no doubt with the elite Neo-Soul Artists and Producers....

[21LASCIVIOUS1986]

i love this song.

[courts83]

jesus christ...

[iwillhaveaworkoutvid]

Bro.... im am feeling this...

[cookiemac78]

i need all of his cds. How do i go about getting them. Some music stores dnt have him

[jamesp5238]

this is the dopest song writer out today, he has wrote several hits that we all like and never knew where they came from, true talent!

[jaymatic23]

I highly recommend this album. It is entitled "Left" and it contains this song. Someone I dated was a fan of his, so I got her tickets to his show. Not even mid-way thru his show, I too became a fan. Purchased 2 cds and it is still in reg rotation since its release in 2007. Very underrated singer/songwriter who plays out his music theatre background on stage masterfully

[ayame1425]

Speaking plainly from the heart..... touches me

[liemck]

I have just recently came in contact with Eric Roberson music,he is a very talented,and handsome man,why isn't he being played more? He really needs to be.

[superwomanjones]

Play Eric more on BET and MTV Jams damn it!!!! He can be on more than just Centric I looooove him!!!!!! All Mtv plays is the same rap songs and popular at ther moment R&B songs over and over and over again!!!!!!

[Dyamanti22]

Nice.

[bittyrock]

DeepSoul Track - got this on my ERRO Collection. Won't catch this on the Commericalized Local Hip Hop/R&B Stations because they're busy playing songs with the same Hook ("EH, OH, AH")

[TOOQUTE4U]

@bittyrock Chuuuuuch

[iseeulooknatme]

DAYUUUM!!

[JustJella]

Beautiful song. He is such a talented songwriter

[booe1973]

[OjBlack100]

Break it down Eric..break it down ..i can relate

[rubster1975]

This song is all about my last love situation..Eric is a genius. Total heartbreak in a song...

[lookDDD1]

Its sad that songs so beautiful are so hard to find at times of need ...yet wack shit plays endlessly

[ccbaby3]

i have been here before... writing a song/poem and it ends up being a sad love song..

[peaches143us]

i have been there when im tryin to write a poem but it turns into somethin sad

[tumeka1979]

This is SO beautiful! I LOVE this!

[benwah3650]

[aboutthefamily1]

[cipherkam]

Eric is a real singer in the tradition of Teddy Pendergrass-real!

He's also cool, humble and down to earth. Let's find where his CDs and shows are and support him!

Peace

Kamal Imani

Painful, ain't it.

[143dz143]

[MissLaLa1023]

"It seems the pain just shows up on the pad as the pen just cries away." That one line brings me an emotion I've never felt before...speechless.

[lowcut7410]

pure genius!!!

[fuckdagovt]

Real music nothing else has to be said

[dabrat231]

I love eric roberson.I listen to this song everyday.On repeat so that tell us this is good music.He is the truth.Thanks for posting:)

[trottersinadustbin]

I fall in love with this song every time I listen to it. The arrangement and lyrical content are both ridiculously beautiful.

[cablrp]

from the beat, to the lyrics, then the emotional delivery..speaks to my heart...."i gave all i had and it still went bad...yeah this is definitely our song,....Passion in the Truth

[BeMySuperman3]

cant get over how much i love this song ... so beautilful, u just know he's guna serenade this to me on ma bday at jazz cafe :P x

[chupamiverga1]

No matter how many times, or how much I listen to this song, I still get chills. The composition is amazing!!! I've probably listened to it about twenty times in the last four hours, no lie. Respect the truth when u hear it.

[sumosounds]

the best erro joint with kev brown on the beats ! what a classic timeless tune!

[derekford13]

my cousin

[gavvyb]

not long till Music Fan First and yet another tour - dude must be the hardest working nu-soul artist...

[tip6187]

does a song ever spark a memory instantly when you hear it? well this song does for me, and in order for that to happen it has to have MEANINGFUL lyrics. thanks eric for giving us something with substance!! :)

[admarshall617]

this song sparks many memories for me

kinda makes me wonder if ill ever find that rite girl for me

[BossLadyWhite]

WORD!

[whyyyyymeeeee]

[MISSDD]

He has the SEXIEST LIPS!  Oh and I love him as a muscian/artist too :)

[enibas09]

[bighugebird]

[SkaaJones]

Hip-hop Eternalist.

[babymil90]

im just now hearing about him. my uncle told me about him yesterday and i like what i hear. even the title of the song is deep.can someone suggest some more songs by him or ppl like him?

[WONDAWOMAN]

go to imeem, type in his name and go under playlists to hear more from him.. related; Sy Smith, Bilal Salaam, Bilal, Omar, Donnie, Erykah Badu, Angie Stone, FRANK MCCOMB, kenna, Lelah James, Tonex, Avila Brothers... if you are in Los Angeles, take a trip to Ameoba records in Hollywood the staff will guide you to some AWESOME stuff you have never heard. That is how I found out about Eric.

[admarshall617]

the song he does "pretty girl" is good too

[BEE2020]

i can't belive this dude gets no air play.People are really sleeping on eric

[chupamiverga1]

i concur, it's simply digusting what they are currently calling music with no regard for the real. E. Roberson is the truth kid. one.

[MrMoe430]

talent!

[OneNastyNupe]

Yeah this is my favorite off the album too. Trademark Kev Brown Production here

[gb4double]

Kev nice too... On the low with it and Easy's vocals blend like a fade...

[rhibac]

nice......+

[o0o0o0o0lala]

reminds me of r kelly's trapped in the closet

[MsLawn]

Eric is so fly...

[lowcut7410]

i guess this is my song.... =)

[SxyScorp73]

oh and kev brown killed it with the beat its one of those listen to while i relax in the bubble bath tracks lol

[SxyScorp73]

My favorite Eric Roberson song

[1inim]

i fell in love with this man's vocals IMMEDIATELY upon hearing this track. the rest is history...im an avid fan. pure perfection,neo soul at its best

[NoWritersBlockHere]

Another True Artist who does not get the recognition that he deserves. Who would ever thought of something like this " The Pen just shows up on the pad and cries away" Man that is true writing and talent. Keep it coming Eric

[gb4double]

word wizardry at it's finest...

try to write a song so sad, when you gave all you had...

[ladyniceness]

Damn, this moves me everytime....sweeeeeeet!!!

[JaheimFan]

Didn't know there was a video for this. I was bumping this today. My favorite song of his.

[classified450]

this guy is great. i was going to do a project on this song, but i think that its honestly possible to say you cant find these lyrics on the internet. doesnt eric roberson kind of look like marcus camby from the Los Angeles Clippers.

[alltradespro]

to me homeboy looks like CL Smooth

[raycminnie]

I was gonna say that... but i forgot which one was which and didnt wanna look like an idiot on the net talkin bout he looked like pete rock lol you got it tho

[RootsRunDeeep]

yea he kinda does dosnt he lol

[badaski82]

real good comments on this video, eric is better than all the usual suspects in soul/rnb i hope he stays underground we appreciate him more this way

[pvkelman]

jerzey stand up

[wkdwayz]

some real music!! thas wassup

[Classyjazzlady]

Love him!!!!

[crazeegirl4life]

People who dont know, get to know! This brotha is on sum nex level!! Musical and lyrical GENIUS! The production on this tune is sik. That b-line makes me wanna cry, it sounds so good lol, and the poetry in his lyrics.. lawd have mercy!! I get hyped when i hear PROPER, REAL music like this!! He needs to be coming to london again soon!! : )

[dubleee]

absolutley wicked,stumbled accross him and he's the find of the year!top tune

[mstialatrice1]

I love this guy's music!!! I can't believe he isn't more famous.

[RootsRunDeeep]

if he was more famous he'd probably sound like everybody else. underground music are gems...radio music is, well, radio music

[mstialatrice1]

True, but this is what "mainstream" music should be.

[RootsRunDeeep]

'SHOULD be" but of course. imagine turning on yur radio and often hearing tunes that hit the spot..sheiiiiit

[PSNQS68]

such a brilliant arrangemnet. I'm sure this was put togeher with little effort on Eric's part-he can pull songs out of the air like magic =}...what a God-sent talent!!!

amazing!

[TopShotta10904]

just gettin into this dude, Im diggin this soul... gettin into more r&b im 23 can't be on that murdadeafkillshit that rappers stay on nowadays.

[musmendds]

Well on that note dont forget to checkout: (all of these artist produce quality) Anthony Hamilton, Goapele, Dwele, Mint Condition's still dropping hits on the low, Of coarse Jilly from Philly (Jill Scott), Jaheim, India Arie, Ne-Yo year of the gentleman is pretty damn good for a youngster and he writes it. Thats just some that I know you would like if you like this. But as for positive and more hip-hope(hop), but still down with good music and beats... Hit me back for part 2, hope that helps.
