Sounds familiar doesn't it? Well that's right! You think of Nujabes when you hear this lovely tune! Most of you would recognize this from Nujabes's popular "Counting Stars". This here is the original in which Nujabes got his sample from, known as "Affirmation", created by Jose Feliciano.

  • It is a re-recording by Jose Feliciano make in his home-studio in 1996 with his tour-band for some recent CD-compilations

    The original "Affirmation" written and recorded by Jose Feliciano (and sampled by Nujabes or covered by Benson) has different arrangement and was released only in a rare RCA Vinyl album printed in 1975 called "Just Wanna Rock'n'Roll". This was/is never released in any CD by Sony-Rca at today.

  • Someone suggested that this was the song sampled for Exile's song "Maintain," but I'm not totally sure :/ All I can match is two chords. I've heard this song and another version, but can anyone confirm? This is killing me!

  • RIP nujeabezzzzzZZZz

  • I like Benson's version, but damn this blows it away, like everything else I've ever heard from Feliciano.

  • @Bob42jh Cant get away from bob. He's everywhere. Like a ninja...

  • re-creation?? hahaa some people are so stupid !!!!!!!!

  • If I owned a seaside cafe , this tune would play all day

  • Nothing more to say but..wow.I am amazed.

  • @rickylascaze001 He sampled this version

  • @Bob42jh yeah Jose Feliciano did it first George did the cover.

  • nujabes didn't sampled this version, this seems to be a recreation.
