  • This song is how music should be, no auto tune, I mean he doesn't even need music!

  • I heard this song while I was working in the studio doing my designs and I nearly cried

  • cant wait too see aloe perform in liverpool uk in december :)

  • I heard this song just after my mum died and it reminded me of my brother, needed help to grow up, became independent then knew she needed him at the end of her life. It means a lot to me because it brings clarity to her death... Thanks x

  • My son introduced me to Aloe knowing my love for R&B & Soul, I listened to this song for the first time walking to work with tears in my eyes - my god what a beautiful song and singer, no mother can listen to this and not get upset, absolutely brilliant!!! From a 56 year old Mother but young at heart.

    This is a shame that this Talent is so overlooked.

  • Amazingly Touching & Deep! The Depiction of being aChild Helped across the street a teen not wanting parents bothering you Then he describes moving away Most moving is the end Stating " Momma near her end, Shes old and grey Sometimes i call her to ask if she would like to spend the day. Momma Use to be stong, But she aint now And she cant make her way Thats why im always around when she needs help & Heres What i say Momma Hold my hand I dont think you can cross this road by yourself

  • I want to sing like him. Seriosuly, I would love to sing the songs that people would wnat to fall in love to while listening to them. I want to hold my girl and sing things to her as beautifully as he could.

  • I want to sing like him.

  • ridiculous !!!! how can you be this good bro ..... every time i listen to this song tears trickle down ..... god given talent and a musical genius ... keep up the good work

  • This 35 year old big guy just cried like a child. Thank you brother. I'm gonna go call my mum right now.

    Peace.

  • I woke up this morning and opened the album and didnt look at any song names i just clicked and this song come on. It hit close to home and i cried. aloe blacc is a one of a kind talent. sings from the soul. The first song that i heard from him was i need a dollar, and i wake up to it every day. I would like to thank aloe blacc for providing the world with such amazing music.

    take care and stay bless my brother..

    peace

  • Deep.

    Man, its good to hear some REAL Music!!!

    So much Talent, yet he has been doing this since mid 90's...Somehow he has not blown up...just goes to show a majority of people are narrow minded and a Deaf Ear for what music should be.

  • it makes me cry. i love this song

  • such a beautiful song, makes me almost cry every time I hear it

  • So natural, so much flavor, you are too good -- love your confidence. Listening to this song takes me places... Wish I could play it for my mom right now.

  • @bood420 No use it on yourself. dont be so negative

  • @bood420 you clearly don't understand the definition of the word judging because that's all you've done in your comments. but i guess you're writing with the assumption that every mother is perfect which is ridiculous. you don't know my mother. you don't know what she's like. Wtf are you referring to by "take the knife away from ur wrists"? what kind of stupid shit is that? there's a huge difference between being annoyed and being depressed. and once again, who are you to tell me i "need help"?

  • @juleswinnfield94 you know that that bood guy might be a 9 year old that has nothing to do at the moment but troll on you tube.

  • @keysersozeh yea i thought itd be unlikely since its aloe blacc but judging from his last comment...

  • @bood420 firstly, my message was to aloe blacc. secondly, you don't know anything about me or my mother. you don't know what kind of relationship we have. who are you to judge me?

  • @bood420 i never used the word understand. i said "reminds"...

  • Wow. Fantastic!

  • this song constantly reminds me that i should be a better son, that my mother deserves so much more than my ungrateful and selfish behaviour. thank you so much aloe blacc.

  • REALLY PUTS YOU TO THOUGHT.

  • This instantly made me drop a tear, and call my mom and tell her that I love her.

  • can anybody gives me the chords or just the lyrics for this song ??

    i just cant find them on the internet...

    thank you very much...

  • That's poetriii at the start!!!

  • its the answer to bill withers "grandmas hand"
