India.Arie - Ready For Love (Live@VH1.com)

[357diamond]

2:54........ OMG!!!!

[arijunal]

why are there three 6's on her guitar

[vocalygiftd]

@arijunal there are not ONLY six 6's. there's also two four's. It's a subtle tribute to the great Nelson Mandela. It is his prisoner number. 46664. And there is a reason behind him being giving those particular numbers. =)

[hevinamber]

her freaking hair is sick! in a good way. i just went natural jan 7th 2011 so i am almost 1 year!

[bossgirlthaace]

2:05 she did that!! And it was in a falsetto!! I love her!

[Beautifulgirl8411]

I really enjoy this song so much, india.Arie is so talented.

[pleasantcrew]

197k come on people! this track is fire!

[zaratustra260]

I love India from Naples!

[katandthegiantjames]

I still can't get over how beautiful this is... just wow. It's an injustice that no one has ever shown this to me before!

[nekaychel]

This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. I'm so glad she has a chance to share her many gifts and talents.

[1faceofbeauty]

I always cry to this song...really gets to me...just the sounds and words sound so perfect together....

[dinolena1]

I never realized how powerful her voice is. truly talented. the words are beautiful.

[chekara]

I remember the first time I heard this song I was on the phone with my girlfriend at the time... i made her shut up and she was like "you never heard this before....lame" I love this song. Wish she would understood what this song means to me.

[itaintwhatyouthink]

You can't deny this woman's talent yet most still do. . . . then search for racks on racks on racks. . . . I smh at humanity.

[NeaneyBeany]

India inspires me....absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!

[jaymzdeen]

Just one of my favorite songs ever. They dont write songs any better than this one. India Arie is one of the best female singers in any genre of music. LISTEN WORLD!! This is music!

[Jazzychazzy1]

This song and The truth r my fav!

[deannagreen29]

INDIA POSSESSES THE QUALITY OF GREATNESS IN HER HEART & THE PASSION SHE PUTS IN HER SONGS IS GODDLY. SHE SINGS OF FEELINGS THAT ARE REAL IN OUR HEARTS, MINDS, BODY & SOUL. HER SONGS TOUCHES DEEP DOWN TO THE CORE OF A SOUL & CARESSES IT GENTLY. SHE IS BY FAR MY FAVORITE SINGER OF ALL TIMES. THROUGH HER SONGS, I'VE LEARNED TO LOVE ME, ENJOY ME & ACCEPT MY FLAWS & GIFTS FROM GOD. I'M PEACEFUL BEING ME & THAT'S A GIFT LIKE NO OTHER.

[MsAyanna57]

I love this song... it sings whats in my heart for MY man... and I sing this to him... from the bottom of my heart... I AM READY FOR LOVE...

[TheMshoneybee83]

this song brings me to tears everytime i here it....i want to feel love like that...my love sucks rit now

[SumthinMstBAvailable]

How can someone sound better live then they do on the CD? This women's voice really is amazing. Flawless. She deserves far more recognition.

[affyP]

Well you probably already know this but your beautiful and gorgeous ! and that song was wayyy beyond amazing

[ego78th]

For me love is only a little drop in the ocean of reality but the song beautiful indeed.

[Redsnake901]

this song says everything i was afraid to say while single. now i see the tough times are what made me want to let change come and finally fall for the specail boy im with now. ;) thank Jesus

[krolewna110]

[Tryingtomoveforward]

[TheUrbanhoney]

[msteesia81]

This song is so beautiful.....love it....

[jenNjuice87]

@mistabigg007-You do realize that this is not Lauryn Hill, right?

[50ztej]

What i love with this song and the musiq soulchild 'love' songs is you can replace the words love with God

[tasha10892003]

I fell in love with this song the very first time I heard it. Now I can honestly say that I too am "Ready for Love"

[fatimama7]

I am lost for words

[MrMarks4]

[yansai09]

[4musiciansonly]

[whenigetlowigethigh]

heyhey check out my cover of how come you don't call me by alicia keys :)

[shakaama]

i should really not be listening to this song :(

[Jack31Jack]

4:11 to 4:20 is the epitome of raw natural talent..

[w314eva1]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOVE!

[Leel0o69]

Everytime i hear her vocals, everytime i hear this song, i cry...

[YoGGiiYo]

EXTRODINARY VOCALS! VIVA!

[lizzyvance]

i heard she quit making music is this true?

[lizzyvance]

I have just discovered her she is incredible.

[6cazzchinky]

I concur with mistabigg007, its the vulnerability that's so grabbing.....India you could not have expressed the lyrics so passionately and yet so real.....it is so parallel of decisions that i have made in my life. Thank you for validating the feelings...that sometimes you just aren't ready.

[TheXinguiling]

O que eu mais quero é ser #FELIZ ao seu lado. Ñ me importo com o que falam ou o que deixam de falar.Vc é mto #ESPECIAL pra mim.. @RaOromano

Essa é nosssa canção !!! te amoOOOO RaO Romano !!!

[Endurer1]

League of her own.

[memeteora1]

what a voice! Absolutely perfect!

[Missljones11]

@TevinGmusic has nothing to do with her at all!!! ur so right , India arie is wonderfu

[naturalwhisper]

I love this song and India ...but I wonder why people have to pull Beyonce down to lift India up. Just enjoy the song and the vid! India is not as popular as Bey and that sucks but dont try to discredit Bey to lift up another female arttist. Bey is good too-- she can not be denied!Why do people always bring up Bey?? India should have  Grammys covering her walls, yes! She should be more successful, yes! They are BOTH great singers in their own right. I love both ladies!

[naaradou123]

@naturalwhisper The reason why I like people like you is because I see hope somewhere: not everyone enjoy division and disunion!

[toyajc14]

@naaradou123 I agree

[stacygallagher]

♥♥remarkable woman!

phenomenal voice!

extraordinary lyrics!♥♥

just been in a trance 4:53

[TimTimato]

Every moment of this song touches my heart. She should be the one with the 16 Grammys Beyonce has. I cannot think of a single "new" singer who can emote like India Arie. I also love the choices she makes, like when to belt or to use higher notes. It's planned, unlike the likes of Xtina who does it willy-nilly all over the place. I love her "acting" too, although it is so genuine I cannot call it acting. Maybe my standards are just low after watching Beyonce's corny facial expressions in At Last.

[PSTACH17]

zajebiste  :)

[ivyabc]

3:09 was a passionate moment./.. i love it.. she had the smirk like yea i think i proved my poit in this song..... im in the moment .. lol LOVE IT!!!

[LorraineAllen]

Weeping into the keyboard. It's just too, too beautiful... Love you India.

[Rebeccaloveslife89]

She's like breathing... Pure. 

[deundra149527]

wow!!!!!!!!!

shivers just went down my spine.

reply 100x

:D

[electricskillet]

Chills.

[chrischris091]

@marchayce5 I hear you 100%. It's a shame that real music gets put on the back burner, and that mere "hits" get put in the limelight. There was a time when the word "hit" actually meant something, you know?? I guess not anymore. I'm tired of commercial music because it's just for the moment. It won't carry, support, help, or encourage you in the long run. It's all in vain. But this kind of music, it will give you something to think about. It has substance! And it carries. This is REAL music!

[Musiclover89]

This song does it for me. I love her! She's great.

[TheMsblack35]

Thankin God for "Real Talent"!!!

[CatherineAlysa10]

Who could possibly dislike this ?!

Are you crazy ?!

[bigjoy]

@srebrenika but she's quite beautiful with the fro...

[ChristianKalos]

Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful songs in our time, this song is no doubt the hidden prefix of the word love and the hidden suffix being when you find true love... 'before & after' simply AMAZING!

[42893alison]

Dameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! you can feel her soul in this song,

[veronicakbooker]

@42893alison 

[MrMoniula]

boskie:*

[hottchicwithjoystick]

women like her make me proud to be a black woman. she is incredibly gifted and in my opinion an exceptional role model for not only black women young and old but all women.

[CMcCail]

@hottchicwithjoystick Hey could you check out my cover of this in the respons box. You wont be dissapointed! Its really well recorded!

[konsuestylo]

@hottchicwithjoystick All Women, any color, any lenguage  :)

[hottchicwithjoystick]

[CMcCail]

@hottchicwithjoystick Hey could you check out my cover of this in the respons box. You wont be dissapointed! Its really well recorded!

[ILoveMusicVM]

[mrsamo17]

[Black187Mamba]

[CMcCail]

@Black187Mamba Hey could you check out my cover of this in the respons box. You wont be dissapointed! Its really well recorded!

[sexwento]

[erinmammi]

Her voice is a-m-a-z-i-n-g-u-hhhhhhhh!!! lol, Seriously beautiful.

[LiquidGold2]

I love this song so much. My faveourite of Indias.

[lacimichelle06]

ohh i love this song!!! its deep and has so much meaning to it.

[33emm]

Much better than the video!

[Darkbanche]

@srebrenika thats such a stupid thing to say, one her hair is beautiful, and two, the whole realise her potential thing sounds so superficial and fake. You sound like a record manager trying to change her looks to make her more commercial!

[musbluv]

This my song and I am and remain ready for love.

[ChevoneC]

Sounds better than in the Video.-_-

[omega70007]

@srebrenika her hair has nothing to do with her talent, do you like music based on the artist appearance or by their talent????? Your statement shows your maturity level, BTW her hair is beautiful. You are a shallow individual.

[raybabibabi1]

i love dis song....

[MartyDaPartyGrl]

this is a pretty song.

[mistabigg007]

This song is epic!! Get into these vocals, the passion, the vulnerability! This song goes deeper than any pop song out right now! I need real music. Lauryn Hilll plz come back!!!

[NaeofNae]

@mistabigg007 She is coming back!!!!!!!

[CatherineAlysa10]

@mistabigg007 Im just hoping you know this isn't lauren hill.

[mistabigg007]

@CatherineAlysa10 Yes i do. Her name is in the title, and it's spelled Lauryn. lmao

[topmodel5k]

@mistabigg007 I can imagine India and Lauryn performing a duet together. It would be so amazing. I wish that dream would come true.

[topmodel5k]

@mistabigg007 I can imagine India and Lauryn performing a duet together. It would be so amazing. I wish that dream would come true.They both sounds amazing live. That's how you know someone truly has talent. Peace and blessings.

[misscourtney2010]

The first time I heard this song I was a young girl and I instantly fell in love. It spoke to like only a true and meaningful song could speak to you. Now as a young woman it still has that same effect on me. Hands down my favorite song ever

[MsDnys]

@srebrenika By flattering I guess you mean straight right? you obviously know nothing about black people and their hair and can't appreciate a funky fro when you see one. She's black with NATURAL black people's hair get used to it, it is 2010 after all. I think you need to have a listen to India Arie's song 'I AM NOT MY HAIR' and watch the video too. This should hopefully educate you and then I think you'll get an idea of what India's all about. She know's her potential and has reached it.

[Samsukkaa]

@srebrenika "she might not realise her potential"

you know, shes not 16 years old, and she has learnt to love herself as she is. and people like you make others feel bad with your "yeah im not trying to be offensive just change yourself to suit my taste" So you can take your hair comments and stuff it up your ass.

[jadeham13]

@srebrenika dont take this the wrong way...not trying to be rude...but you should check out her song "i am not my hair"....

[djooks]

this sister is so beautifull, who cares abour her hair? listen to her words, her heart, her soul and please open your own heart, without judging people on their "looks".

Don't judge the book by its cover... please...

bless!

[moeluv1277]

@srebrenika. What do her hair have to do with her singing? NOTHING that's what. Just enjoy her performance

[Cagedbirdfree]

I love this song! My heart is open....And, I cant believe the negative comments about her hair. Her hair is beautiful in its natural state. In fact, I was thinking it would be a funky look for the summer

[MsNini1984]

man i love this song it makes me think. but in a good way. i almost cried too

]

[88NENATUBE]

Beautiful!!!...

[funnyactin]

SO BLACK, SO BEAUTIFUL!

[IanJar]

@srebrenika I personally love her HAIR. I love it even more that she is comfortable with it enough it towear it even though mainstream society thinks like YOU.

If you don't like something change it, if you CAN'T change it, CHANGE THE WAY YOU THINK ABOUT IT!

[floconuit]

so nice voice!! and beautiful song

[victate]

[taktoszieerobi]

Why so little we can hear like this wonderful singers?

Why now in the music stage is only about doing the greatest show? somebody will demonstrate more body and he's the best... WHY? Doesn't it here concern the voice ?

[BragG0208]

India, you just left me speechless... as many are left speechless...

[malinmelleby]

On my channel can you see, i'm singing your song. I love "ready for love" <3

[bigdaddyjohnny59]

I love this version so much more than the Music Video version. So much more intimate and personal. Words just cannot describe it. Simply amazing.

[avrilpinoywannabe]

[j14hirn]

[doremifasolla77]

[Marchayce5]

NOW THIS IS REAL MUSIC!!!!!! Not what the media tries to portray as "real music". Sorry Beyonce. This is on a whole other level. Beautiful song, beautiful artist.

[bellareina05]

@Marchayce5 Honestly I am so tierd of all of this voice over back up singer computerized bullshit they call music

[Marchayce5]

@bellareina05 I agree with you 100%. It has really gotten out of hand, seriously. :( India Arie is sooo beautiful to her core. Im sure she doesnt do it for the recognition but for her love of music which only makes me want to support her even more. Shes so awesome. :)
