Mary Magdalene---- Meshell Ndegeocello

One of the most underated artist ever



I often watched you the way you whore yourself/You're so beautiful/You flirt, tease, enviously I wish you'd flirt with me.

Perhaps I'm enticed by what you are/I imagined us jumpin' the broom, foolish I know/'Cause that's not the life you live.

You live alone in a crowded bed never remembering faces
Conversations just a body for the lonely
Spend one night with me satisfy me for free and I'll love you endlessly
I overheard you say you'd give them what they wanted
So give me what I want

Tell me I'm the only one
I want to marry you
Tell me I'm the only one

In a harlot's dress you wear the smile of a child with the faith of
Mary Magdalene
Yet you wash the feet of unworthy men
Come and I'll set you free into an endless valley of fruits both sweet and sour
And whatever displeases your palate my kisses will wash away
Stay. If you must dance, dance for me
Blessed are the pure at heart for they shall see god so close your eyes and dream
For the world will blind you and I'll judge not so that I may not be judged
Please give me what I want

Tell me I'm the only one
I want to marry you
Tell me I'm the only one

I wish I had seen Me'Shell live...The spell she would weave playing music like this would be unforgettable

this sista is the female version of prince.this is my one of favorites selections that she has penned.the only female on her level 2day "in my opinon" is ms.badu.meshell use a bad SISTA!!!!

I love this woman, the way the lyrics contain sensual lyrics with refrences to religion tied together, something very wonderful, I understand that she is not refering to Mary Magdalene directly but it was close enough for me, she was also a massive Christian at the time...I would imagine that song would have got her into trouble in some circles

This is one of the badest musical artist in the game. People need to recognize.

profound!

"For the world will blind you and I'll judge not - so that I'll not be judged ..." Oh ... my ... damn ... this is one of her most incredibly sensuous grooves; the arrangement is ridiculous & the cast is amazing: Joshua Redman w/that sax solo, Wah Wah Watson on guitar, Billy Preston, Bennie Maupin, Luis Conte & Me'shell w'that sick-a** bass playin' ... "Satisfy me for free ... " Thank the Most High for you, my sister - and the "Repeat" function ... Peace, peoples
