[Tenewah]

What in the world is up with that audience??? Are they all drugged?? I would be all over the place doing my praise dance to this queen's music. They are in the presence of greatness and don't even realize it. 

[stricklandnc]

@Tenewah You are totally right! I love this video and never looked at the audience - they are frozen solid. Makes me think that was either intentional or perhaps the 10th time she sang the song for the shoot, lol. AWESOME performance - whatever the situation is with that crowd!

[Tenewah]

@stricklandnc: LOL you are so right! By any chance, do I know you? Did you go to Carleton?

[Tenewah]

What in the world is up with that audience??? Are they all drugged?? I would be all over the place doing my praise dance to this queen's music.

SlyHobbit, you got it!!!

[jaydude214]

I'm sorry but the guitar riff is a complete rip off of mahavishnu orchestra's 'you know you know'... this group is cool but the riff man..

[eviloneone]

Dude,shut the fuck up.Alot of artist sample from other artist and make it into there own unique style.Jill is real talent and we should be thankful artist like her still exist in a world full of mediocre talents like Beyonce

[israel5959]

Damn Jill Rocks!!!

[sierrastudio]

cruzebaby  thank`s for the information !!! this is Groove...........

[missmochashake]

An Excellent poetry song writer Jill keep on mastering in song writing. Your a genius solo artist and it speaks for itself when you received the Emmy Award for best jazz album. Thanks for sharing.

[BUBBLYHILLS]

Wow!!! This is the first time I've seen this!!! Thanks for posting. Jill is Genuine!!!

[MzRonnieBaby]

COCKY WITH REASON!!!!!! She is music poetry artistry all wrapped up in one!

[SoulMusicFanatic]

This woman is the BOMB!! Why she doesn't get the props she deserves, I'll never know!! Keep you head up girl!!

[SlyHobbit]

Because the world is obsessed with talentless women that make careers out of dressing and dancing like whores rather than actual musical talent. I still dont understand how near soft-core porn got integrated into and sold as "music" but its sickening that it has taken the spot light from the real shit. Maybe, just maybe one day BET, MTV, and the radio stations will start playing real artists......ok, maybe not.

[ciksc]

@SlyHobbit, amen

[LipstickGala]

@SlyHobbit ~~LOL~ although ur correct on this, ur language is like watching a soft porn !~ LOL u cussed or slandered someone in almost every line of what u just typed that is NOT good representation for JILL!~ LOL

[SlyHobbit]

@LipstickGala

Well fortunately the idea wasn't to represent Jill, it was to represent my own opinion in English. Personally, I am 100% satisfied with the current state of the English language as has been developed for thousands of years.  Sorry, I have just never understood the logic of labeling some words as "bad". Weather can be bad, a child can be bad, food can be bad, but how can a word be bad? Who is it thats deciding which words we are to find acceptable or not?

[TerentiusXIII]

@SlyHobbit PREACH!!!!

[peanutkeys413]

@SlyHobbit they seriously need 2 play.. real music.. like omg, reading my mind.. ugh, im sooo frustrated with the radio and i've completely given up on 95% of television music channels.. smh #fail

[Beyoncefan1000]

@GIQUE900 and you'll be surprised to know that Jill Scott really notes Beyonce as one of the best vocalists of our time!!

[09Squadboy]

@SlyHobbit I agree 100%.

[mrphatfarm]

@SlyHobbit ..You are soooooo right i agree 100%....beyonce,rhianna,mary j,etc can not touch Jill Scott if they waz 2in from her.

[klcollier777]

@mrphatfarm you are right on it

[sexyblackpolo]

@SlyHobbit well there is always centric television and vh1 soul but i think they will cause those type of artist do not last long like soul artist do

[skl007]

@SlyHobbit I'm so shocked with what u had to say, I just saw it now. What happened to, if you have nothing nice to say about someone, keep your mouth shut? I sincerely hope you no longer around to read this massage, as the world don't need people like you.

[crisstalle]

@SlyHobbit Amen!!!

[sierrastudio]

who is the bass player???????

[cruzebaby]

@sierrastudio Adam Blackstone

If you folks don't know who Chris Dave is Chris is the one of the reasons why Spank's chops are the way they are.
