I love how she incorporates healthy communication. She's expressing how she feels, her insecurities, her hopes. But her overall love for this person. She's accountable & hopeful knows her worth but knows she needs to compromise too just a little reassurance. She's trying to work things out, great song
A lot of today’s RnB artists don’t know how to sample correctly. But, this sample of Goapele’s “Closer” was IT! she did this so smoothly and kept alllll the vibes and made it relevant to today. more of this in music 😫!!
@@roderickbaisden8571 yeah, no problem. The track is called “closer to my dreams”. It’s unfortunately not on Apple Music or Spotify but you can find it on TH-cam. This was way back in the day around his mixtape era
This is my favorite song on the album. H.E.R. turned this classic song into her own. I didn't go on the Back Of My Mind Tour sadly, but I hope I hear her perform this song live on her next tour.
I love has she used the sample of Goapele song "Closer to my Dreams" 🎶🥰🎶🥰🎶🥰 This is 1 of the best songs on the album. You definitely took this way back. I love it!
Feeling so depressed & down around the holidays. HER has helped me realize my worth, & believe me, it has been HARD! Who would’ve ever thought putting yourself first & knowing your worth would b so hard. But by the grace of God I will overcome all these emotions. They do not define me. Just going thru the motions. Sidenote: Heavy on the “I deserve that kind of love” because, yes I do! We all do! Remember what’s meant for us will always b for us! Beautifully done HER.. thank you! Love & light to you all. 💙✨
This song. Had me dropping tear. Mistakes makes way for perfection. Forgiveness is very important. Genuine conditional love is a blessing. When she said I'll stop bringing it up hit home.
When this song came on I was scratching my head thinking I heard this beat before. When I looked it up and saw it Goapele 😯. This is genius. This is how you sample.
Wow ! She's such a genuine artist , she amazed me so much . With all the songs she put out ,i love more than half of her songs. I can just feel the emotion of the song so much ,i can feel the hurt and passion . Never loved artist like this since alicia keys
Lyrics Feel inconsistent for a minute Just listen for a moment Stay here, don’t leave me (Leave me) Oh, I was hoping we could be closer Just hold me when it’s shaky Say you still need me, yeah (Uh, yeah) I feel like you don’t tell me you fuck with me enough (Oh) ‘Cause the whole time, you were giving away what should have been my love (Yeah, my love) Always in lust I get worried, can’t trust you, baby I invested too much I been healing, don’t rush it, babe Can we make up For all the times we weren’t touching, baby?

What’s the song she sampled?
@@jewleheart2526 Goapele - closer
This one will def be on repeat for a while!
That Goapele sample sounds so beautiful with her voice. Serving that neo-soul 💜
She sampled the beat from the song “Closer” by Goapele. What a genius🔥🔥🔥.
I forgot that was the original cause I also remember Drake’s take on this sample too
@@chrizchanang I didn’t know that Drake sampled the beat as well. Do you know what’s the name of the song he used it for?
@@roderickbaisden8571 yeah, no problem. The track is called “closer to my dreams”. It’s unfortunately not on Apple Music or Spotify but you can find it on TH-cam. This was way back in the day around his mixtape era
@@chrizchanang thank you I appreciate that so much💙

This song encompasses exactly how I’m feeling in this moment about my relationship. It’s tough😢
Aweee poor tink tink🥰

I'm 40 and obsessed with this young lady's music. She's such a class act.
You act like 40 is old haha
@@odysseymack9122 I kn right lol. Her music is mature enough for older folks too.
There's literally no age restriction on art like this.
I am 50 and she is one of my favorite artists. Can't wait to see her in concert 😍
Im a 23 yr old male and I love her
I see mo' Grammys!!!! (Prince is somewhere in the cosmos smiling down on this...💜)
If alive he would have definitely worked with HER
She does remind me of a female version of Prince so talented
I’ve been listening to this song for the past 2 hours on repeat. I’m obsessed 😔😍
Try 3 days on repeat I'm beyond obsessed
Every week i gotta listen to this one!

This is my favorite song on the album. H.E.R. turned this classic song into her own. I didn't go on the Back Of My Mind Tour sadly, but I hope I hear her perform this song live on her next tour.
I'll be 54 this year and I love H.E.R MUSIC
I’ll be 65 in June and I dig H.E.R. too!
Her helps me with my mental health, I love you work Her, the frequency, the lyrics I feel everything in my soul. Thanks HER
🙂 thank you for reminding me that Goapele's - Closer was such a banger. It's nice to hear from people who know good music despite the age.
I practically had a mental breakdown listening to this song. Ya know when the lyrics just hit you...plus that Gaopele sample
This is audible gold
That ending part with them vocals were AMAZING!!!!🥵🥵THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PART OF THE SONG I love when artist end songs with beautiful endings!
I'm so happy she gave us more music.
Instantly went to throwback mode with this sample. “Closer” is still a fav. H.E.R did well 👏🏽👏🏽
This woman has helped me through so much pain and heartache ❤
Literally helped me at my lowest
Can see this being used in a black love movie

Oh shit the Goapele sample is everything! I know she’s feeling honored. That’s beautiful Bay Area love. ❤️
Facts
I like how in each of her album covers she starts to show her face more little by little😏
Just like the weeknd when he first came out
Feeling so depressed & down around the holidays. HER has helped me realize my worth, & believe me, it has been HARD! Who would’ve ever thought putting yourself first & knowing your worth would b so hard. But by the grace of God I will overcome all these emotions. They do not define me. Just going thru the motions.
Sidenote: Heavy on the “I deserve that kind of love” because, yes I do! We all do! Remember what’s meant for us will always b for us! Beautifully done HER.. thank you! Love & light to you all. 💙✨

Lyrics
Feel inconsistent for a minute
Just listen for a moment
Stay here, don’t leave me (Leave me)
Oh, I was hoping we could be closer
Just hold me when it’s shaky
Say you still need me, yeah (Uh, yeah)
I feel like you don’t tell me you fuck with me enough (Oh)
‘Cause the whole time, you were giving away what should have been my love (Yeah, my love)
Always in lust
I get worried, can’t trust you, baby
I invested too much
I been healing, don’t rush it, babe
Can we make up
For all the times we weren’t touching, baby?
I’ll stop bringing it up
Hoping we can be better for us
Us
Come closer to me, babe (Closer to me, babe)
(Yeah, uh)
When I’m tricky, get rid of all the bitterness and issues
You don’t believe me (Believe me, yeah)
Ain’t your responsibility to make me happy
But you damn sure don’t make it easy (Easy on me)
Sometimes you feel like [a wound?] from mistakes, but I don’t judge (I don’t judge you, baby)
I just need to know that it’s always been different with us (Us, us)
Always in lust
I get worried, can’t trust you, baby
I invested too much
I been healing, don’t rush it, babe
Can we make up
For all the times we weren’t touching, baby?
I’ll stop bringing it up
Hoping we can be better for us
Ooh-ooh
Come closer to me, babe (Closer to me, baby)
I’ll stop bringing it up
If you love me, if you’re in love
Oh, I deserve that, I wanna love
Yeah, I deserve that kinda love
I know things get better with time
Don’t matter if we don’t stop drawing the line
I just need you to come closer to me, babe (Babe)
Yeah, closer to me, babe, yeah
Feel you touch me, oh, [?], oh

Nice job though. Love this song

The person who produced this song has to be the same person who produced “Damage” 🤧🔥
I swear this song is like crack 😂😂🔥🔥🔥
Which is H.E.R
Listen to Goapele - closer
Cardiak & Nova Wav produced this. More info on the credits here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_of_My_Mind_(H.E.R._album)
Probably not. This beat is over 8 years old. Lol
The intro though 🔥🔥
I coming from a life long alicia keys fan I honestly think h.e.r Is the greatest r&b female of all time! She is soooo amazing
Total honesty she is the only star I’d really be star struck to see I’d literally pass out I love gabby
Of All times? really? 🙄
@@beastmode4617 I went extremely overboard. She is my favorite of all time but def don’t mean she’s the greatest
@@beastmode4617 yes n that’s coming from a lifelong a keys fan
I don’t even have a liscense but I’m looking up nationwide insurance she has the special superstar touch I think she could really sing instructions to do some dumb ish n I’ll do it gladly I’m obsessed
Already love it! From the first beat! This the one
