I been saying tht I sung this song when I was pregnant with my son and now he's one and he'll smile at me because he knows this song...... he be trying to sing......
Haven’t heard something so heavenly-sounding in a long time 😭✨ The french and arabic motives in the song..her voice..omg everything about this song gives me gosebumps when I listen to it 🤯 Takes you to another dimension ❤️ The power of music….
Damien Bury non ça n’a rien à voir je dit ça car , la musique a des inspirations orientales c’est tout , elle aurais repris des sonorités asiatiques j’ aurais dit la meme choses avec les asiat , c est stupide de dire ça surtout dans l univers musical quoi 😶 😅
Lolo Your voice is so soothing. It makes my mind forget everything!!!! French and Arabic I want more like this one!!!! The end though is the most beautiful part
@@AliceVanIsa Thanks a lot I checked: is a French Algerian singer songwriter know for her low wave, Japanese inspired, unique beats. It is an other style. I relate to Lolo Zouaï who also mixes language😍🌹
I love the Arabic mix in this song.. She sung in three languages. This is the first time I have listening the song where the singer incorporated THREE languages.
you could've just said r&b/soul. people who don't know much about music genres keep comparing upcoming artists with one they already know in that genre, it's embarrassing
Me Finding out that this song is about family trauma and religious differences after its being heavily sexualized is really something................ But I get it because her sensual and smooth vocals along with this slightly angst beat together creates tension when you don't understand the lyrics and you are just listening.
I mean I already knew it was about how both her ethnic backgrounds have always had this cultural clash, but never heard her say anything about her being sexually traumatized? Unless you're referring to her muslim background, and how her muslim roots/culture was different when it came to what was expected from her as a woman, such as the way a woman dresses/behaves, and how that encourages a sort of sexual repression compared to what western/french society allows. I think I vaguely remember seeing her mention something about that in an old video, since she has both french and algerian backgrounds. But then again, I might be misrememberimg some things...so if I'm wrong let me know....I for sure do not remember her saying anything beyond that though. Edit: nvm, i defintely remember the interview explaining what I just mentioned in my comment. Definitely was not about sexual abuse, but rather about the culture clashes of her contrasting customs between two different ethic roots/backgrounds. The somg is about wanting to just be loved and accepted by her muslim heritage, and that part of her family. I know you didnt say she was abused, but without context thats what I gathered the comment implied, since it's been so long since I watched that interview and for a minute, I could only vaguely remember the interview. The lyrics of her song helped refresh my memory about the interview though, so now I understand what your comment actually meant given that I recalled the knowledge and context of her interview back then.
My heart stopped!! I stood in my living room with my mouth open listening to this song for the first time!! I have repeated this song so much my boyfriend is humming it!! You have done a beautiful job!! I’m honestly very in love with your voice! Absolutely beautiful very talented please keep going I need more music from you so I can just get swallowed into your vibes and fall asleep to your angel voice!! You are a gift! Keep your head high and push!! Your music will change the world in more ways than one! ❤️❤️ Edit: (( see you soon I’ll be at your Show here in Dallas 😍😍!! I’m so excited)) ((come through girl!!

I first heared this BEAUTIFUL song thru a Video that Larry from Les Twins danced to . What an Angelic voice and Larry showing emotion thru dance was a double treat . Wow ...Im still in awe !!!!!!!
Wow! My mom and my aunties love this song, on our family group chat I heard your song. And when I heard Arabic in it I thought why not show it to them since we are Muslim .In conclusion they ended absolutely loving this song, the vibe has an Arab flow to it. It’s soothing my auntie said . I love this song too!~
WOWOWOWOWWWW!!! How did I never hear this song before?? it’s sooo amazing! I love how it includes the 3 languages that I speak (French, English and Arabic). I love this song smmm
I love this song for how chill and sensual it sounds but also it has personal meaning to me , i remember dancing to it on the day of my grandmother's rosery just a day after she died , now everytime i listen to it i think of how much i miss her , this song is so healing

The first time I see an actual correct Arabic sentence in an English song
she said two words though
She's also half Algerian
Maybe because she is arab.
@@MrZxcvbnm22 is she?

People interpret songs differently from the artist.

This song is so beautiful, it deserves more recognition, I wish I had known it sooner 😢
Been obsessed with this song for 2 years now lets hope tiktok won't ruin it
They’re starting to, making the song sexual 🥲.
@@shelly423 rii😭. but i love this song!!!
they already ruined it
@Cyriah Edwards But the comment was about TikTok. The song is about her Trauma and religious differences and more. It’s weird.
@Cyriah Edwards The comment isn’t about any other social media or any other person outside of the app. It’s about TikTok specifically.
Those araibic sounding effects are perfect. I never even knew i knew what they sound like
