This song is so smooth, sexy, and soulful all rolled into one. I was just learning how to play the alto sax in Jr. high at the time when my bro played this song for me, and I was spellbound, and I wanted to learn how to make my sax sing just like Najee was doing on this song here. I fell in love with it instantly. The drummer is killin it, and that bass is speaking to my soul. Love it, it's a Masterpiece..
i'm the only guy out of all my friends that like smooth jazz and najee, i'm only 23 and people my age just don't appreciate these fine tunes, it's so sad.
I am 32 yrs. old and I have been in love with this song since I was in the 5th grade. I got my first stereo and I played this song every morning before I went to school. This song is my favorite jazz song of all time.
This song is by far the greatest jazz ever in my opinion. This song helps me out in ways i can't even describe :). I'm really happy my father still has this album :).
WOW! THOSE INSTRUMENTS SOUND SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD. IT IS NOTHING LIKE HEARING THE SOUNDS OF REAL MUSIC-BUMP THOSE SO CALL MUSIC MACHINES THE ARTISTS ARE USING TODAY. GROOVE ON NAJEE!! 2vent2011
Long time and eternal fan, all the way back since the late 80s. your music helped me grow up, it set me apart from my friends who didnt want to "get off the block".
@scorro8 Yesssssssssssss! I have always said that about jazz period...my grandfather would blast old & new jazz every Sunday from the time my grandmother left from church & until she came back home so I started out in the 70s listening and never stopped and because of it I've always believed that I was different and able to explore other things--open book.
Had the pleasure of seeing him live last night in Houston with Phil Perry and they rocked it ! Will go down as one of my favorite concerts to date! Had such a lovely time. Raw talent!!!
NAH!!!! This is the cut!!!! I love my Najee with ALL my hearrt! You didn't bring me onstage but I still love you!!!!! You even named your son after me!!! lol Keep Doin Whatcha Doin!!!!!
Simply beautiful. Still have the cassette. YES, cassette. lol. Najee has an unmistakeable sound & this is one of the smoothest of songs. A true classic!
Najee and George Howard brought me through some rough times back in the day. That smooth seranading sax just melted away all my sorrows. So thankful for their talent. So grateful.
This jam has gotten way more views than I would have imagined after only 3 months - my most viewed vid by far. Bravo to all of you who love it as much as I do! Of course, the whole song is masterful - but I'm especially fond of the send-away ending, starting at 3:50... such emotion... and that double snare at 4:21? t r e m e n d o u s
WOOOOOOOW! Man, This came out my senior year of high school(c/o 90) and I was the only cat in the whole school diggin on this album and track! LOL! The only cat diggin on smooth jazz for that fact! Takes me back to a good place. Remember learning this on bass. Awesome post! Thanks.
@Bigbasssix1972 haha I was 19... wasn't into jazz at all until one day, shopping in some record store in Paramus NJ, they had this song playing (was their featured promo album)... that bass riff sent me to another world - I remember listening closely with a surprised smile on my face and thumping my fingers along with the groove. Immediately asked who the artist was and what track this was - bought the cd on the spot! Peace....
Najee, this is so beautiful to me !!!

This jazz track is cold to the bone. The drummer is kicki'n so hard in the pocket. Najee is the man on soprano sax.
