someone else said you might as well cover the rest of the album, and i whole heartedly agree. Ms Lauryn hill is so great its hard to even touch her songs but you my man, did it. more please
It could all be so simple But you'd rather make it hard Loving you is like a battle And we both end up with scars Tell me, who I have to be To get some reciprocity No one loves you more than me And no one ever will Is this just a silly game That forces you to act this way? Forces you to scream my name Then pretend that you can't stay Tell me, who I have to be To get some reciprocity No one loves you more than me And no one ever will No matter how I think we grow You always seem to let me know It ain't workin', It ain't workin' (no, it ain't workin') And when I try to walk away You'd hurt yourself to make me stay This is crazy, this is crazy (this is crazy, uh-huh!) I keep letting you back in How can I explain myself? As painful as this thing has been I just can't be with no one else See I know what we've got to do You let go, and I'll let go too 'Cause no one's hurt me more than you And no one ever will No matter how I think we grow You always seem to let me know It ain't workin', It ain't workin' (it ain't workin'!) And when I try to walk away You'd hurt yourself to make me stay This is crazy, this is crazy Care for me, care for me! I know you care for me! There for me, there for me! Said you'd be there for me! Cry for me, cry for me! You said you'd die for me! Give to me, give to me! Why won't you live for me?!
Crazy when this first came out he was so under the radar I was mad for him. Like “I can’t believe mfs ain’t rocking with this.” Now look at ya. Proud of you
I'm just so entranced by the fact that this is so beautifully covered in a male perspective. Those added vocal effects was sooo good too. Yas! Just do the whole unplugged album, like fr fr, I'd buy that lol
My current song on repeat. You are seriously one of my favourite artists since I discovered you last year!! Please never remove these covers 🥲 Thank you for sharing your music and incredible vibes with us 🎶❤️❤️

That's hilarious bc I didn't notice either. I had started the vid over and was scrolling comments, read yours, looked up real quick... huh. The frame was a lot tighter than it is now 🤣
It’s like this song just keeps on getting better every new rendition. It’s like the song specifically chooses who can only sing it beautifully and give it justice.
I am so not into remakes - they always seem to fail. THIS MAN has pulled this off beautifully, made it his own and did the original true justice. STANDS AND APPLAUSESSSSS (insert swaying with eyes close wishing for a glass of wine to chill too LOL).
Please make more and post it. You have no idea how your soul music has gotten me through finding my sobriety and rebuilding my relationship with God. I listen to you a dozen times a day, unfortunately only a few days after regaining my health that was stripped away with drugs,I got a virus.I lay here in the tub fighting any temptation, With mainly your voice to guide me as I try to harmonize LOL... BLESS UP❤️
haven't really heard any covers of this song that really captures the heartbreak that lauryn hill captures.... this one does though. beautiful work here
I think the most beautiful thing is I can remember exact times listening to this for the first few times. I know exactly what I was doing hearing this and listening on repeat for the first time. Truly an honor to be able to listen to this. What a beautiful experience. Hard to believe it’s been almost 3 years. Thank you Mr. Joseph 🙏
And ya did this....my head is wondering which i prefer and my heart says enjoy both. I'm standing and applauding and others around can't see what my ears are loving
Bro I can’t believe they didn’t choose you. FYI I’m a worship leader and your Christian covers have helped me so much with my Sunday MUSIC SERVICE. thank you. Praying for you BRO
Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn! This voice just blew my mind asunder! Your voice, sound, tone, flow, vibe, control, and rasp is from another time, age and world! The first time I've heard anything from this artist and won't be the last! It also goes without saying that this song is a masterpiece written by a genius and very few have been able to do it justice. I'm sure Lauryn would have no problem sharing the stage with such an accomplished artist! PS: Would have loved to see you one day collaborate with Latasha Lee (also a great artist in her own right). I just have this gut feeling that your voices would compliment each other and that youse could vocally spar with each other which always brings the best out of the greats. Here's to more recognition in the future🙏
I think I've listened to this over a 100 times lol. This is one of my all time favorite songs, and you did it more than justice. You put your own beautiful spin on it. Truly amazing! Love your voice!!
It wouldn't hurt to have you just cover that whole album
i can't tell you how much i agree with this.. i heard it and suddenly i felt a strong desire to hear every song from that album here.
I am here for it
"Says queitly and politely in the back as I proceed to second that"
Please do peace of mind
Including the skits
someone else said you might as well cover the rest of the album, and i whole heartedly agree. Ms Lauryn hill is so great its hard to even touch her songs but you my man, did it. more please
Indeed!

OMG yess

Thiss!
Please!
@@ravenw149 yessss!
OMG I NEED THIS ON SPOTIFY PLEEEAASSEEE
Lauryn Hill lyrics always leave me feeling read
Thank God, youtube has option to marathon all your videos. Amen.
This really reminds me how much I miss attending concerts in an intimate venue
Same. I've been struggling for the past 10 months.
This young man's voice can bring a nation together.
It’s the voice, quality, look, everything for me!👌🏽🔥😩
Everything, girl. EVERYTHING 😭😭😭
I felt this with every fibre of my being. I love your artistry, love from South Africa.
It could all be so simple
But you'd rather make it hard
Loving you is like a battle
And we both end up with scars
Tell me, who I have to be
To get some reciprocity
No one loves you more than me
And no one ever will
Is this just a silly game
That forces you to act this way?
Forces you to scream my name
Then pretend that you can't stay
Tell me, who I have to be
To get some reciprocity
No one loves you more than me
And no one ever will
No matter how I think we grow
You always seem to let me know
It ain't workin', It ain't workin' (no, it ain't workin')
And when I try to walk away
You'd hurt yourself to make me stay
This is crazy, this is crazy (this is crazy, uh-huh!)
I keep letting you back in
How can I explain myself?
As painful as this thing has been
I just can't be with no one else
See I know what we've got to do
You let go, and I'll let go too
'Cause no one's hurt me more than you
And no one ever will
No matter how I think we grow
You always seem to let me know
It ain't workin', It ain't workin' (it ain't workin'!)
And when I try to walk away
You'd hurt yourself to make me stay
This is crazy, this is crazy
Care for me, care for me!
I know you care for me!
There for me, there for me!
Said you'd be there for me!
Cry for me, cry for me!
You said you'd die for me!
Give to me, give to me!
Why won't you live for me?!
Thank you...💓💓💓💓💓
Sua música chegou no Brasil jão !!!
Não consigo fica um dia sem ouvir vc cantar

Absolutely. Big fan! You're ridiculously talented
Te amo
Holy shit!
you and him should collaborate 😩
I'm just so entranced by the fact that this is so beautifully covered in a male perspective. Those added vocal effects was sooo good too. Yas! Just do the whole unplugged album, like fr fr, I'd buy that lol
A Lauryn cover! Yaaaas! Love me some Lauryn.
My current song on repeat. You are seriously one of my favourite artists since I discovered you last year!! Please never remove these covers 🥲
Thank you for sharing your music and incredible vibes with us 🎶❤️❤️
If we could leave voice comments I would be Screaming!
From the voice- to the visual- to the arrangement- to the guitar you tore this up!🔥
Man, Miss Lauryn Hill is really one of the greatest to ever do it
I need to hear you sing more Laryn hill. This was beautiful.

It’s been a long time since I got chills listening to music
This made me cry I can hear and feel the pain in your voice wow. You have a gift! God is going to use you, your voice can heal souls I believe it
timeless.
Sometimes our soul is in need of healing. I’m so glad to have found your music to help me heal mine.
my heart is listening and my eyes are crying
Thank you
I closed my eyes while listening to this & tears welled up in my eyes. I was already feeling emotional, but his voice and raw emotion topped it off.
goat of melody... big up from france!!
God bless whoever is zooming in so very slowly. If its a person your hands are blessed 😂🙏🏾
That's hilarious bc I didn't notice either. I had started the vid over and was scrolling comments, read yours, looked up real quick... huh. The frame was a lot tighter than it is now 🤣
Its done in editing, but well done tho!
How does one attain this voice? What a talent
my mum used to sing this song. thanks for sharing this, it filled my heart up!
Yeahhh cover the whole album
It’s like this song just keeps on getting better every new rendition. It’s like the song specifically chooses who can only sing it beautifully and give it justice.
DANNNNNG!!!!! BEST LAUREN HILL COVER I'VE EVER HEARD!!!! Mah goodness!!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
As soon as he opened his mouth....His sound is dope!!!
My fav song🥺🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
*sits with eyes close and rocks back and forth letting his voice and guitar take me through the motions*
This is soul.
What a voice man!!! What are you doing without your own album? Amaizing!!!👏👏👏
I am so not into remakes - they always seem to fail. THIS MAN has pulled this off beautifully, made it his own and did the original true justice. STANDS AND APPLAUSESSSSS (insert swaying with eyes close wishing for a glass of wine to chill too LOL).
One of the best covers of this song hands down ! I haven’t heard a soul come even close to eating this up like Lauren hill did ! Good job !
Sitting in my backyard in Puerto Rico. Chilling on a Sunday night. This hits the spot!
My favorite TH-camr singing my favorite song by my favorite artist. Perfect.
This literally made me break down and start crying and i don’t know why definitely needed to hear this 😭😕😩

After the Redbone cover popped up on my TH-cam recommended I've been looking forward to see whats next. Great song choice!

I don't usually comment, But LAWD this hit my soul! The voice. The acoustics. The plants. The everything. Soo beautiful Joe.
Literally the only thing I listen to 24/7
This is crazy, I just bought this album on CD the other day sheerly off of reputation, having not heard it. I have been obsessed, awesome cover!
Way to incorporate the lyrics into your comment 😉
