  • Mmmm , I love it .

  • I am in loooove with this song! The original n the remake... this groovy tune, makes you pause n reflect n reminisce about life...

  • I grew up on D'Angelo's music, this guy is the truth. This is actually on par with the original, and i LOVE Roy Ayers. No one in RnB/Soul has come close since

  • This cover is unbelievably dope, ive had it on repeat for like an hour. Hes prob the best thing to happen to R&B in the past 20years period

  • So f'in soulful!

  • @MegaDiva1999- I second that.

  • D'Angelo...come back Bro...your crown awaits. Get your head out of the clouds of drugs pleeeasssse Brother...the world needs you to nourish its centre.Daaanggg you 're good.

  • @MegaDiva1999

    His new album is 97% done, according to Questlove.

  • This song... played right at dusk...or sunset..beautiful.

  • i have to say, it would be nice to hear a current playlist of new material from D'Angelo but he gave us alot of music, so i guess i can wait til' he is ready.

  • I got my ticket for Feb 2011. D'Angelo Live In London.

  • @MadamePepper

    where can i find more information about this performance? I'd like to go....and will definitely be there...

  • @zibron53 It's Feb 3rd 2012 at Brixton O2 Academy.

  • where is D'angelo???? damnn love this!!!

  • Soft Music

  • I wish he would get himself together. He was a true talent in every sense of the word. Him being MIA is just ridiculous. This song just proves it.

  • SMH........DAMN!!!

  • Yo D! We're still waiting...c'mon back!

  • @nattychamp D'Angelo-Found My Smile Again (on youtube) from his 2010 "James River" album which got NO RADIO PLAY...SMH!

  • @nattychamp D'Angelo-Found My Smile Again (on youtube) from his 2010 (James River) album which got NO RADIO PLAY...SMH!

  • @mssquirrely

    true - but thinking about what's on the radio nowadays it's probably a compliment to D!

  • @nattychamp 2010 album (James River) song Found My Smile (on youtube)

  • : ( i miss D'angelo 

  • Real music needs to come back..

  • An exellent and pure version of the original!°

  • just bees n things n flowers... oh wait u.u

  • what a voice...reminds me of a younger maxwell or bilal...slightly different but still....wow

  • @AlexCute1 There aout the same age. D'angelo is the Kng of Neo Soul.

  • @MonarchNeoSouloist Oh wow had no idea lol...but u know what i mean right...yes hes the king indeed (Y)

  • nowhere as good as the original!

  • does anybody knows where i can find the new songs? if there even are new songs?

  • WREAKED IT !!

  • love this.. 

  • I looooove this song!

    D'angelo is my favourite singer

  • thats my piano. Mmm love that bite

  • Stripped down, totally naked. Beautiful.

  • Now this is niiiice!!! I don't think D could ever do anything wrong! He actually understands music the same way as the greats!!! I'm glad we have at least one artist that has the secret...

  • Within 10 seconds this drove a "OOOhww" out my toes wooh

  • nice remake of a classic

  • Only D'Angelo could commit to the soul of the song like Mr. Ayers intended. He certainly is the R&B Haysoos. Bring proper light on music that requires proper reflection. Thanx youngin.

  • this is soul music at its best, they dont even do it like this no more..

  • not a bad remake as far as remakes go. prefer the original though

  • just dont see how u cant like this

  • do it!

    

  • now that's what I call good vibes...

  • Music coming from the soul

  • i miss this D'angelo he needs to come back

  • Check my live band we do jazz and real music. its on my page please support

  • This is DOPE! Wasn't expecting to enjoy a cover so much.

  • D'angelo paying hommage to Roy Ayers. This is a classic and aint even his song!!! Brotha voice is soothing for the soul.. I can sit in heavy meditation on this. My deep thinkers can relate.

  • @Prymetymebime totally. few people can rock covers that are just as good as the original.

  • THANK YOU ALL for not adding the tired ass joke of "16 idiots are deaf....16 ppl must not blah blah....."etc etc. The joke is PLAYED OUT

  • @rtoriq lol 16 people don't like the sunshine..lol just playin

  • @rtoriq 16 people are deaf.

  • I came up with the original and this is ON AND POPPIN ya'll

  • I'm a sucker for that Rhodes man.

  • Marry me!

  • uhhhhhh yeahh

    im so high

  • Best male neo-Soul artist ever!!

  • i just wanna rip my testicles out so i could sing in a high melodic falsetto voice like d'angelo...well here goes...

  • Comment removed

  • Heard he got caught with a transvestite. Cocaines a hellava drug!

  • @dexduzzit1 No he tried to pick up a (female) prostitute in new york, unfortunately she was an undercover cop.

  • @jsquie

    If D'angelo needs a prostitute to get laid, then there's no hope for any man

  • @dannybighair HAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA

  • i smell weed suddenly

  • Unique interpretation...goose-bumpin & chillin

  • this beat is so cold............ sunshinee

  • the end of this song was my inspiration

  • he is not in prison, he is in NY working on the cd and training with mark jenkins @tanika1975

  • D'Angelo were the fuck are you man Damn! "STOP BULLSHITN SHOW LIFE AWAY" ALL THAT GOD GIVIN TALENT. VA GOT LOVE FOR YOU MAN

  • 90s music is the best.. cant find artists now and days who sing from the soul... thanks for the upload.

  • really love this version!

    its so relaxing!

    ♥♥

  • I FEEL IT!!! SMOOTH, SULTRY, SEXY, SOULFUL, WHEW!!!

  • "Niggas get brown in da Sunshine!" Love ya D

  • So smooth i love anything he sings i wiah he would come back!!!

  • Comment removed

  • This is the kind of music I feel my generation has lost.....SOMEBODY please bring it back....nothing can compare..... it's like brown liquor for the soul.......

  • everybody need to stop calling for D'angelo to come back cuz drugs have enslaved him. sad

  • @realityme peace bro there is article in spin magazine talking about that subject and also i think he sold his soul to the baphomet and he wants it back it is indeed a sad situation because no one can touch him when he gets focused will this happen? i doubt it it has been 10 going on 11 years for the next album ONE

  • @tderrell7 Peace Brother...Word nobody can touch him when he focused. One love

  • @realityme he's not on drug. The dude just didn't like what the industry was doing to him so he got fat to prove a point and don't believe what you see on the news all that shit is a cover up just to make it seem like something is wrong with him

  • @MyLorenzoB Fam he is on drugs! I kno dudes that went on tour wit him (musicians) and said he do coke openly. Do you even know what he has been gettin into? This isn't some stunt my dude, this is a classic case of highly talented man who let drugs destroy his life. He aint the first (hendrix, Joplin, Old dirty bastard, marvin gaye (even tho his pops killed him in the end) and he aint the last. Dont be naiive. This brother needs help not excuses.

  • @MyLorenzoB i did read that srticle and it seems like he just needs to just take time out for himself. he even said that he didnt even want to do how does it feel b/c he wanted people to love him for his music. i think the being away for so long is apart of another reason. plus it took him five years to make his secongf album. so i do agree with you

  • THe SUNSHINES @ KeymAker7 Page Come take a L@@K

  • need the new Album

  • It appears that ppl still want tha funk but who can bring it to us in a New/Old package?

  • omgggg i loveee this songggggg

  • Big Ups! If D can stay out of the clink he would be in the HOF! I wonder how many of the instruments he played on this joint

  • Comment removed

  • @huatoa ... couldn't have said it better. Nothing compared to the OG Roy Ayers

  • My son was conceived while listening to D.

  • SOOOOO Smooove !!!!! Lawd Ha' MERCY !!!!

  • 13 tonedef idiots who listened

  • "REAL MUSIC".......this nigga is the R&B jesus......period. it just dont make no sense how gooood all of his songs feel....i mean, WTF!!! burn a few blunts while this shit is on repeat.....

    WESTCOAST

    West-Coast

  • smoooooooth :-D

  • The Original Version far better....Roy Ayers...

  • bad bd sound...

  • Feel what I feel what I feel what I feel what I'm feelin

  • I guess some of the naysayers about this vid didnt' read that it was and Outtake/Extras + Essence Festival Rehearsals. I like it!

  • laid back all day. real music and talent. lets go

  • sooooooooooooooo sexy

  • what album was this on?

  • wurlitzer always does it baby

  • the original was awesome because the beat was laid back and smooth...this one you manage it to sound like now a days music but still with that laid back sound and style

  • D'Angelo baby... c'mon ova here = )

  • the origional version, that roy ayers made, was better i.m.o. 

  • Ohhhh, snap! that is playa smooth. What? Don't sleep on this one ya'll. @Cluv22 you are 100% correct, the master.

  • i gotta find D and just lock him in a studio. Hes my generations "Prince" and hes simply the best at what he does. Problem is, he doesn't do it often. This song is a remake but he covered it beautifully.

  • What would they do if it wasn't for our dude, a real tight dude!

  • Vocals, drums, and a rhodes. Simplicity at its finest.

  • yea, let's play it again.

  • This is hot!!!!!!!!! where did this song come from? who arranged this?

  • @PricelessP86 This is a Roy Ayers song. It's a cover.

  • niiiiice!... doesnt even have to be like the original.. just a groove to let go to.. im on it..

  • D ANGELO PLEASE COME BACKKKKKKKKK!!

  • Um does no justice to the song sorry D...

  • Classic

    Timeless

    He is da bomb

    truly

  • God he just can do no wrong with his voice and music.

  • Raw and Pure TALENT! No computers needed!!!

  • Hot! :-) i love me some him!

  • Damn....

  • HOT

  • Spine tingling. Bone chilling. Just love it! Thanks for posting.

  • I'm so lovin this song right now!!!

  • @Colunga210 I've read my homework seems like you to dumb to understand check out bohemian grove stupid watch and learn face the fucking facts before you say it's a god damn joke sounds like you a fucking puppet in their mind game!!!

  • He channels Marvin Gaye in this one...come back, D. We miss you.

  • ooooooo!

  • And last but not least listen to the god damn words og the song!!!

  • Listen to Tupacs song called blasphemy where he says "looking at the sun don't pay" which indicatres that the sun is the devil, because like many other so called artist are sell outs and they sold their soul to the devil!!! open your eyes people once you learn to peep the game you'll quickly understand what they really are talking about!!

  • Now secondly he wrote a song called Devil's pie which basically breaks down who illuminati is!! now for all who dosen't know who illuminati is it's a some kind of religion for santanism almost all presidents are in it. Thrid if you go against "The industry" you will suffer in your career no matter what it is hence D'angelo being cut of the scene.

  • @BboyMino LOL " illuminati is it's a some kind of religion for santanism " fucking joke. Do your research.

  • Ok listen guys here's why D'angelo isn't on the scene anymore!! Now first of all the sun means in satanic sects cult or what ever means the devil hence everybody loves the sunshine, D'angelo wasn't a sellout so he whent against the illuminati writting song's about the devil.

  • Both versions are bomb. D'Angelo brings his own flavor to an awesom classic.

  • Falsetto never sounded SOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD! Waiting for new stuff

    We miss you D.

  • Great song, great cover. I hope D'Angelo brings out another record as good (if not better than) Voodoo.

  • Earth to D'Angelo come back. Where are you?

  • I feel u on dat one, he has so much music to share with the world!!

  • Yes he does.

  • @tanika1975 smokin rocks...unfortunately, brown suga was da shit

  • @tanika1975 Yeah we definitely need some more of his music.

  • @tanika1975 You should google dude. Sadly he's in prison.. He just cant stay out of trouble nowdays.. >_> I wish he'd get his life back on track. I know he can regain the fame he has back in the good ole 90's.

  • @ShadowSayain1 WOW!!! So sad. I hope in the end he will get it together because he's on of my favorite.

  • @ShadowSayain1 Thats so sad. What a waste of a huge talent.

  • @clubland459 I agree. I dont know why he'd want to ruin all that he had.. Maybe someday he'll make a comback and if so ill be waiting for his next album. =)

  • mad that he didnt sing or at least harmonize longer

  • He really needs to come back....

  • @nnao1976 peace unfortunately i think that he sold his soul and now he wants it back i love the brother to death he is one the greats to do this there is a article in spin magazine august 2008 you should read it if you can find it online it explains his soul searching and battles with alcohol and drugs

  • @tderrell7 Found the article, read it: thanks for the information. Seems he went through hard times...

    Though I just stumbled upon his myspace, which said album and tour this summer.

    Living in japan, I could at least look forward to the album...

  • did Mary also sample the Roy Ayers' song for her song "my life"? it sounds similiar to me after hearing this

  • @jenghi21 yep- hence the title "My Life".

    That ENTIRE album is one big sample and cover (I'm goin down). A gr8 album tho.

  • @alphaqnow interesting

  • standard, great skills. Easy D. Love the workz

  • 2:44 onwards is erotic...

  • D'angelo has too much talent!

  • Love you D!!

  • yo, i love the sunshine forreals. hahaa.

    he puts me in a comfort zone. thank you God for this angel. he just needs to find his way back to the MIC!

  • Good Reprise !

  • great!!!

    5 stars

  • Originals are usually the best. Incognito's tribute is very cool. D'Angelo's vocals are sweet--though, I wish he'd just sing out--let loose. Lol Also, instrumentals could've been tighter. Thanks for posting. ;)

  • D is great on rhodes!!!!

  • D tearing this beat up mane. He is smokin it. You go D.
