[Thorsten566]

This song is really awesome.

[osirisgem]

whats not to love.

[lilbl6]

Love it !

[Kristenxo4]

Asha, i love her. Her voice is so unique! Favorite song<3

[lolwut71]

the useage of this song ona local new cable station advertizing some new programming in a short clip playing over and over and over (back to back sometimes) has made me LOATHE this song

im sorry :(

[wilsonsamuel]

@lolwut71

believe it or not, i switched on that channel for some 2 hours or so ( i generally dont watch tv) to catch the words and find out the actual song. loved the song the first time i heard and it has become one of my favorites, however i understand if u hear every 10 mins or so you are prone to get bored ...

[bogulom]

i'm looking for a "hurricane" album. who has a torrent etc???

[WiseGuy5674]

Can someone tell help me here?..A couple of years ago, Saab had a commercial with a factory building a car and the song haunts me, but I don't know the name or artist..... "I can't tell you..all I feel inside...but I just want to let it out...let me say it if you don't mind"....Thats how the song starts. I wish I could find the add here..but I've had no luck.

[walla55555]

@WiseGuy5674 hi it van be oh laura - release me

[walla55555]

@WiseGuy5674 Hi its maybe this one. Oh Laura - Release me

[WiseGuy5674]

@walla55555 ...nope...thats not it..Thanks though.

[mr19910630]

@WiseGuy5674 Maybe it's Ana Diaz - New Way?

[WiseGuy5674]

@mr19910630 Thank you for responding...The song I'm thinking of is song by guy.

[hackmaa]

this song shoudl be used to vote this nov 2nd...go dems!

[PRINCEGOBLIN]

I listen to this 2+ times a day

[shazenmaire]

wow her voice is soo clear!

[Frederick0220]

This song gives me the chills. It is so good.

[DarthCornholio]

Another song used by greedy corporations (SAAB) to sell us thier crap. Dont feed into them. For some reason they think we are all stupid and will buy thier products when we hear a catchy jingle.

[ertren6]

@DarthCornholio ...but we will...thats the american way.

[BoukenShadow]

@kboy3141 Yep. Go America!

[kskksksksful]

omg r these on sheet music!!!

[Blured0Influence]

so beautiful!

[MICHELSMOOS]

SAAB toujoursssssss

[SlimShadyfoshizzle]

ive been looking for this song forever! i love it :D

[bam3289]

She has a great voice. Its raw, spirited, and extremely human. Feel like its a chick singing in her kitchen

[lyndford92]

i was also surprised she was a black singer,but then again i,ve thought it was a black singer and he or she turns out white.still a very nice voice.to a very nice car ,have owned a few .

[melissa90ify]

i noticed that her voice was a littlepitchy from the time i heard the commercial but i think thats why i looked her up. i like it. i can imagine her with a smile on her face while she recorded this

[trumpettodd]

Can no one else hear that she can't sing in tune?

[TrueSpazzin]

@trumpettodd But her voice matches really well with the music

[trumpettodd]

@TrueSpazzin Point made and I actually agree :)

[BlindParasite]

hoky shit shes black she sounded white i the commercial like really white but color doesnt matter when music sounds good

[HellJustFroze]

@BlindParasite No, Color doesn't matter PERIOD.

[OnTheToiletBeyotch]

@BlindParasite Yeah like 4 and 20 by Joss Stones. I thought it was the other way around. But this song and Asha Ali is awesome regardless. :)

[ramsfreak893]

It's weird how if it weren't for commercials, good songs like this wouldn't get recognition.

[DuggabbooDC]

It really makes me feel optimistic :)

[BoukenShadow]

@InnerRise I love how people are jumping down your throat because they misunderstood your post. All they saw was your surprise that the singer was black not the fact that you mentioned the song was old and you didn't like it because of that. Bunch of sensitive dicks. Even if he did say he didn't like the song because she was black.

A) What business is it of yours?

B) Why not just ignore it and move on?

C) Who made you the defenders of the equality?

Also Saab cars are shit like all European cars.

[thentantt]

Not to sound weird but did anyone else think she was from minnnesota?

[shapeprincess]

love. love. love.

[LinKxSinger]

WOW!!



[DaDude458]

It satisfies me so when I can find a song I heard with three key words, blogs, and youtube. (=

[DaDude458]

I love this song

[RikulovesSora2]

i love this song



[EdgeHead1100]

I love this song

[PRINCEGOBLIN]

Saab has best songs in their commercials, PERIOD

[HellJustFroze]

@PRINCEGOBLIN Them, and Volkswagen. You try and tell me that 1901 by Phoenix wasn't epic and yer shittin me.

[TaticalZenroy]

@PRINCEGOBLIN Agreed. :)

[kiriderz]

haha me too! abnrm! i love this song! fuck!

[Siddiq510]

Thank you!!!!!!

I've been lookin for this ever since I saw the commercial!!!!!

[perfectpitchable]

OMG. This commercial drives me nuts every time I hear it. it's like someone tormenting a cat. This singer can't hit a note to save her life. I used to like the Saab but now when I think of one I can only hear this bird squawking at me.

[hitmanzkilz]

thumbs up if u searched this song because of the commercial =P

[sandyambersalem]

I like this song it is happy, I loved the commercial so i looked it up :)

[anders1245]

I like the song... but is anyone else bothered a little by her tuning? Maybe it's just that most performances these days are pitch-corrected during production, and this one hasn't been.

[ryanc231]

@anders1245 i hate that now u dont have to have talent to be famous its ridicolous good for her for not enhancing her singing voice!!!!!!!!!!

[quinlynnes]

i lovee thiss c:

[dellol]

haha

[gcallahan52]

i just saw the commercial and i fell in love with the song. :D

[KidBajan]

I always thought that this was Feist that sang "1, 2, 3, 4"

[InnerRise]

Wait. So it's a black girl? And this song is THIS OLD? This commercial wasn't on tv back then was it? I'm just getting familiar with it.

Just lost a fan.

[OmegaBubbles]

@InnerRise

What about it being by a black girl or it being a few years older would make you not a fan? That's extremely ignorant.

[InnerRise]

@OmegaBubbles I don't like old songs. Sue me.

[xsultrysongstress79x]

@InnerRise You're not a fan of saab because she is a black girl?

Well...now you can hate her even more because she is an East African Somali sister [it's okay, the more you hate her, the more i can absolutely adore her!]

[InnerRise]

@xsultrysongstress79x You need to get CONSISTENT. You ask me if I hate SAAB b/c she's black then tell me to hate HER more b/c she's Somali.

Realize she is not a car and SAAB isn't her name and then get back to me.

[xsultrysongstress79x]

@InnerRise LOl. You need to learn how to comprehend what you read. I said that you hate her upon discovering that she is black...i gave you one more discovery...she is also Somali..so you can pathetically hate her more. Really, it's called sarcasm, i was just making fun of your stupid racist ways. G'day ;)

[InnerRise]

@xsultrysongstress79x I can't help but realize that in your explanation, or should I say rather, your BACK PEDDALING, you conveniently leave out the comment you made about SAAB. I wonder why. Oh that's right. Because you would have to concede to being a dumb bish. Come correct or don't come at all sweety. I'll hold you accountable every single time. Toodles! :)

[xsultrysongstress79x]

@InnerRise You are literally confused beyond reason. I don't give a fuck about SAAB or their cars. I do however give a fuck about this musician because she happens to be talented. I did not mention SAAB because they are of little importance to me. Now, what i said is concerning her because HER race is what made YOU not a fan of the company anymore, therefore, a fan of hers would be upset with you having issues with her race, not with you having issues with some company they didn't give a fuck

[InnerRise]

@xsultrysongstress79x Imma make this easy for myself b/c you just typed an essay of the calibur that only Sarah Palin's retarded baby could and used up all of your chances to own up to your FAIL.

You said, and I quote: "You're not a fan of SAAB because she is a black girl?"

Now what was that about you not MENTIONING SAAB? Not ASKING ME ABOUT SAAB? About you not col---"

Yeah,that's right ya dumb bish.Type me another essay b/c you are just cheese w/out the corners.YOU WILL NEVER BE A SLICE. Rot

[xsultrysongstress79x]

@InnerRise about. Go burn a cross or something...no one cares for racists in this day and age. Your stupid tactics might work on someone who is like yourself..quite stupid, but not for someone who sees how you are trying to repel the word "racist" like it did not belong to you. Btw, your arguments are invalid because they carry the logic of a two year old.

[Viruspirate]

@InnerRise don't let the door hit you on the way out.

she's amazing

[InnerRise]

@Viruspirate And don't let my hand hit you on its way to your face.

[kofqns]

@InnerRise the fuck? your reasoning is very poor.

[InnerRise]

@kofqns You don't understand my reasoning.

[TheRowdyTiger]

@InnerRise He probably doesn't understand your reasoning because your "reasoning"" is stupid.

[InnerRise]

@TheRowdyTiger Well only he can attest to that. Not you. So you'll forgive me if I disregard your attempt at telepathy and leave him/her to speak for themselves. We good? Good. Because it's you I have no time for. Cheerio! :D

[kofqns]

@InnerRise trying to gain attention on the internet is pretty pathethic. you'll never be the man your mom was. 

[InnerRise]

@kofqns Your 15 minutes of acknowledgment from me that your Father never gave you is now up. You may now proceed to slip on your gimp suit and get to your corner and deal with your daddy issues like every other whore in the world. :)

[TheRowdyTiger]

@InnerRise they may not of said it, but seems like from all responses you've had many people are agreeing with me, probably them too. Btw, you've had the time to respond to me didn't you? And every single comment thats come your way. Lol.

[kofqns]

@InnerRise fuck you AND utada hikaru, whoever the fuck that may be.

[InnerRise]

@kofqns And fook your dad, whoever that may be being as no one as found him yet ever since he ran out on your prostituting mother chump.

[danielaaxxo]

saaab, so much good can come out of one average car

[mrpsixfly489ers]

is it on itunes??

[abnrm]

@mrpsixfly489ers Yes. i bought it of tunes last US OPEN.

[commandolam]

And i thought the artist was some Minnesotan chick.

[sweetnessboy1]

@commandolam Got somethin against Minnesotan's? Asshole. Lmao. Jk.

[thentantt]

@commandolam haha me and im from minnesota xD

[cafelovelyts]

@thentantt lmfao ikr me tooooooo :)

[pqboi]

@commandolam she is from swedan.

[Kopdogg]

I swear I can hear or picture the 4 seasons of the year in my head of this song in all their greatness. In my own little way.

[sweetnessboy1]

Daang. This should be so much longer! It's such a pretty song.

[fudgeyenuh]

:( shes not on limewire yet! i heard this song on the new saab commercial and loved it!

[aopdjasldksa]

@fudgeyenuh There are much safer and faster ways of getting songs than using limewire.

[CRISTINSANTOS1]

I love this song! Very motivational & uplifting! I like her other songs too! Fresh voice.

[Artard517]

Finally! I found the song! Thank you abnrm

[tazzie1180]

catchy ad/commercial!!!

[NeoBlackProtocall]

i love this song but im not buying a saab. lol

[TriSarahTops100]

<3 this put's you in a good mood. :)

[Sadness1335]

Aww this song makes me smile :)

[wiwf123]

apparently she is not a lesbian. she has a son, i think. not that it particularly matters. her music is awesome:)

[ncommons]

@wiwf123 It's just an item of curiosity, and I also wanted to view it as a love song.

[wiwf123]

@ncommons i suppose it could certainly be viewed as such. and that's the beauty of music! the same lyrics can mean multiple things, depending who you are :) for example, i choose to see it as the day telling her to open up, have fun, and enjoy the time she has :D

[wiwf123]

what is this song about?



[pqboi]

@wiwf123 Not all songs have meanings. This song could have a meaning, but that all depends on the writer of the songs inspiration or reason on writing the song, or just maybe she thought up random lyrics. Who knows.

[wooimcool25]

Finally.

[KiMiMELAH]

This song is so refreshing. I <3 it. :)

[Rebekahbekahbekah]

I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH! <3

[KPuterEXP]

THanks i love the song after the commercial :D :D insparational

[FirebirdSinging26]

I love this song...it makes me feel so excited and motivated :)

[msnikki73]

That commercial always catches my attention because of this song, I was hoping it was an actual song and not just written for the ad. Thanks for posting.

[mizmode]

I love this song!

Thanks so much for posting.

[checkitcristal]

when i saw the commercial i loved it thanks for posting it :)

[MoPete15]

Grat song but is she talking about gays? 'Why dont you come out??' 'I'm waiting on you, waiting on you?'

[jordanm2013]

@MoPete15 omg, i just thought of that lol

[ncommons]

@MoPete15 Yeah, I was thinking this song was about two closeted women in love. Just the way she sings it, and what the lyrics say. It's quite a beautiful song, regardless.

[Device46]

SAAB = Sälj aset eller byt

[Dennemannen]

@Device46 det är 2 A. inte sab :)

[Bjjfighter1982]

[ShisInLuv]

This is one of the hand full of songs that I can sing at the higher end of my vocal range without straining my voice! I fell in love with the song on the commercial and had to look it up!

[Jesskahhh666]

lol.

I just heard this song like a few minutes ago on that same commercial...

Had to listen to the lyrics to type in on google, and then I found it here.

hahaha.

A great song indeed!

[RickyBoys1]

Love from the Netherlands :P We have saved SAAB hehe ;)

[skellingtone]

Love from Canada!

[desmosedicigustav]

Var inte "Release me" också bara en reklamlåt till saab från början? de hittar verkligen guldkornen. jag är förälskad i den här tjejen

[ghoztmazta1]

Saab´s cars have soul............

[MrDanilsk]

epic

[cermeeno]

hahaha dåligt att SAAB går i konkurs nu da :PP

too bad that saab is almost bankcrupt :PP

[civinco]

This is sweden! makes me proud

[Gukken1]

"I can't put my finger on it" - But this song is great! Thanks for SR, P3 and Saab for playing this song so that I could find it!

[FantomLightning]

they need to change their slogan to

The Time Is Now, Shift Into Drive

[FantomLightning]

or

The Time Is Now, Shift Into Saab

[josefineuden]

Love it, thank you SAAB :D

[CarrisBarrisSarrisxP]

åh .. bra att det inte bara jag som gillar den =)

[MellyxTH]

[xMiglox]

[Q2w3e3w2q]

Det är därför SAAB är nära på bankrutt, de lägger för mycket pengar på deras otroligt vackra reklamer! :) Underbar låt det här!!

[Fry20009]

Someone should get that JosefFrtizl guy banned, clearly a lunatic judging by his comments and profile...

[Nutte1983]

Du skulle fömodligen inte vinna mot någon människa i en tävling där det behövs hjärnkapacitet. Beviset på det är dina kommentarer. Är du 4 år eller bara allmänt korkad?

[RonniSulaka]

Jossef, akta med det du säger. Ni svenskar är inte direkt perfekta på allt direkt :S

[khz88]

Great song, love it!!

[l3o0405]

Du är INTE rasist ???? , Negerhora är inte rasistiskt enligt dig eller hur. Vad spelar det för roll om en svart eller vit sjunger en låt, till en svensk reklam. Den datorn du skriver ifrån just nu är inte svensk men vänta den är i sverige. ?? Rasister är lite löjliga ibland. Gå tillbaka några år i tiden och flytta till USA som alla andra utvandrare gjorde för att gå och jobba som slavarna gjorde i USA den tiden.

[Luckylee4]

nej spotify måste fixa den asså

[frankl1989]

Looking forward to finally drive the new 9-5!
