I really cant get enough of this...Takes me to a whole new place.....sooths my soul..I am very upset the closed live show this yr to me is in MN. I might even buy a plane ticket to go see. PS I am a man....lol and a straight one lol
i wish i lived in a place cool enough to get dessa to sing live on the radio. i wish i lived somewhere cool enough to have a radio station that played dessa at all haha
I have heard some of the you tube vids with her....now, she is very talented, - and she has a lot of emotion in her songs, - why don`t we have more music like this on the radio? Why is it only lady freakin ga - ga that is on air?!?!? (I do know the answer to this, - it is not a question, more like a statement....) And I do not have anything against Lady G, - just head enough of her for the next two years... or longer...
@crytonick15 Portishead is a very good trip-hop band. If you like this song (in particular), you should check them out. Specifically, a song they have called Glory Box.
yo Dessa, you promised we'd share drink sometime... i live in Michigan, so, one of these days im flying out to see you and the crew. im sending a demo of mine to you guys as well. keep hip-hop alive in any form, as you all are... keep your heart in those ribs baby doll, don't expose it too much, otherwise people will expose it and use it. beautiful music.
one of my favorite songs off this album
Dessa has one of very few female voices that I really love-- so much depth and it sounds so genuine
Stumbled back across this song, great lyrics. You get a sense that they come from a real place, very human. Convincing. Thanks.
I felt the same way, the whole album is like that for me.

YES! ... Hell yeah... she's mad talented. Amazing Vocals and can rap.
She pleases my ears, eyes and heart.

Such an amazing voice!
Or listen to KEXP. Clearly we play them as well. No disrespect to fellow NPR station The Current.
Wow!! ... just ..wow

So dope
heart explodes @2:48-2:58.
If she sang this song, this way, in this context.... pretty sure it'd backfire and the dude would NOT go home.
...I'd be too busy falling in love.
I didn't realize that the song had ended.That was groovy.
@crytonick15 have you found out who they are now?
I'm sure Dessa likes Portishead as well, this song sounds like its been influenced

does that play in northern utah?

I would dedicate every fiber of my being to Dessa, for the rest of our lives together, if she would have me.
you guys have at least a few radio stations that play her songs. In Germany, they don`t even know her. So poor.
Can't save the rose from the coffin Dess.
@MrBatai I dig Dessa for sure, but you need some serious justification to mention Gibbons in the same sentence as /anyone/.
id let her sing to me for days
I can see what you mean with the Portishhead likeness.
Very similar to Portishead. A Beth Gibbons/Dessa duet would be killer. Two amazing voices that complement deep, heavy grooves.
agreed.
@psilogen I agree. She's got a pretty voice, but not really that special imo. Gibbons is completely different.
she's got melancholy on lock.
She went home in 2000.,
and she divorced me long before that. "at my request"
but yeah can't save the rose from the coffin.
Woman crush.
sounds like Portishead but not as good.
