make mine a double espresso...
if you don't know who this is...
i don't even know...
the musical genius behind tony toni tone, and lucy pearl
the guy responsible for TIMELESS classics like anniversary, lay your head on my pillow and my favourite song ask of you.
me and this song have had some history. i heard it first in the nineties, and i just liked the way it made me feel. i was younger than ten years of age and i remember feeling tingly... i didn't know what the name of the song was, i didn't know the name of the artist either...
i heard it again in 2004, i was in a matatu* on my way home. i didn't get off at my stop because the song still wasn't over...
i looked for that song for the next FOUR years and finally found it by accident on a friends computer. i cried!!!
it's one of those songs that if a dude was ever to make me a mix tape, it should be the first track. it's the most played on my iPod, i play it when i'm in the shower, when getting dressed, before i sleep... and it still hasn't gotten old!!!
i have listened to it now over 100 times and i still get that tingly feeling.
that's good music.
the awesomeness that is RAPHAEL SAADIQ...!
