Absolutely! I don’t understand why artist like her, Goapale, Chrisette Michelle, Ledisi and even Jill Scott aren’t as big as I feel they should be. All of them, including Amel should be as big as their talent. Raw, natural, God-given talent. No auto-tune or other technology. They all sound the same in live performances as their recordings. I’d also like to add Jazmine Sullivan to the list.
"Whoever said that love was overrated Must not be getting none My independent days have had their fun But when the party's over And the working day is done I just want to go home to someone" 💜
Listen to me This song is very big Heard it once in the background somewhere and instantly said what is this Years later, I know every word, ad-lib, and beat A magical song
I always loved her music she was so underrated she had the total package beauty brains along with a beautiful voice l hope she’s performing somewhere out there l often think about her 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This woman is growing weary Of having to be so strong Of having to pretend I'm made of stone So I won't end up with no broken bones I can't fight every battle alone I want someone to lift me Heal my wounds and give me kisses on my head Say words that should be said Fear is not the matter I would so much rather open up my heart And lay down my guard [Chorus:] If I could trust someone To have my back and never do me wrong Then I would give my love up Just like that stop singing this soldier song [repeat] whomever said love was overrated must not be getting none my independent days have had their fun but when the parties over and the workin' day is done I just want to come home to someone I want a love to take me As I am not make me compromise myself Or be like no one else Fear is not the matter I would so much rather open up my heart And just lay down my guard [Chorus]
[Bridge] I want someone to lift me Heal my wounds and give me kisses on my head Say words that should be said I want someone to lift me Heal my wounds and give me kisses on my head Say words that should be said [Chorus]
This is how I feel, tired of being strong, I am a woman, but I want to be a lady-someone's lady, stronger together, she speaks my heart. I don't know, but sometimes it seems like the women who don't even long for that intimacy as much have it, but what do I know. I have been strong alone for so long, lately I feel so weak its hard to even meet the one companion I have, but her lies don't make it any easier (distrust in heart). Even Jesus said he does not entrust himself to anyone, and yet, its hard to just let go and be one's self perhaps, when one is afraid of another. The rare times I meet someone special to my heart, I soon lose them, just as I knew I would, out of sight out of mind-even if its my own fault it happened completely. Please God help us, how do single women live and stay so strong, or are many more feeling like this woman sings than I realize?.
I was fortunate to see Amel live in Boston back in the day. She's an amazing performer and did a great job of connecting with her audience. So warm and lovely Miss Larrieux. God bless!
Man Amel, AMEL! This is still one of my favorite songs!! Soooooo Underrated!! This song deserves an award! Real, Authentic, Related Experienced expressed! Beautiful!
Just in case you're unfamiliar, I highly recommend Groove Theory(the entire album ft. Amel) and the song You Will Rise by Sweetback, the group she used to be part of. Absolutely gold 🏆
I was JUST thinking about you this weekend. My mind was troubled because I could not remember something I wanted to do..... prayers work..... I wanted to ensure that I had you on TH-cam..... Even though it has been out, this is the first time I am seeing this video. I am GLAD to have subscribed to you. May you and yours be BLESSED. I look forward to MANY future notifications
Who's here in 2024??
Amel voice is so amazing 🔥🔥🔥🔥
so amazing.
Amel Larrieux = TOP NOTCH songwriting. An entire standard.
This song reads so many of our hearts’ desires so clear.
I’m 35 and i literally just fell in love with her again 😭
2024 - Jammin. This woman is an angel truly sent from heaven.
Yup!!!!
AMEL COME BACK TO US, WE NEED YOU!
I still listen to this in 2022 like it came out yesterday. 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️
A timeless voice & so underrated. Amel will always be in my top favs! ❤️
More natural beauty and talent than Beyonce, Rihanna etc etc but she chose to keep her soul at the expense of wealth and fame....
Sacred woman. Woman of the most high.

Facts her voice so underrated and she wears no makeup and is still very attractive
more what >>>>>> now i love her but you're tripping . stop putting black woman against each other@@explorelondon3695
"Whoever said that love was overrated
Must not be getting none
My independent days have had their fun
But when the party's over
And the working day is done
I just want to go home to someone" 💜
i feel attacked lol
The lyrics to this song are so beautiful.
Amel's been my favorite for many years and still is 😃
Same. I want to meet her
Love from Romania, still waiting new music from you, you are amazing
Listen to me
This song is very big
Heard it once in the background somewhere and instantly said what is this
Years later,
I know every word, ad-lib, and beat
A magical song
Years later and still so fresh. Thank you, Amel, for staying true to you.
My Favorite Voice since the 90s. Her music is therapy
Classy singer, I appreciate her so much!
I love Amel Larrieux! Dope ass artist, Intelligent, talented,angelic voice and physically attractive. It’s like she came directly from heaven.
She's like no other too!
I always loved her music she was so underrated she
had the total package beauty brains along with a
beautiful voice l hope she’s performing somewhere out there l often think about her 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Her voice 🔥🔥♥️👏🏾
This woman is growing weary
Of having to be so strong
Of having to pretend I'm made of stone
So I won't end up with no broken bones
I can't fight every battle alone
I want someone to lift me
Heal my wounds and give me kisses on my head
Say words that should be said
Fear is not the matter
I would so much rather open up my heart
And lay down my guard
[Chorus:]
If I could trust someone
To have my back and never do me wrong
Then I would give my love up
Just like that stop singing this soldier song
[repeat]
whomever said love was overrated
must not be getting none
my independent days have had their fun
but when the parties over
and the workin' day is done
I just want to come home to someone
I want a love to take me
As I am not make me compromise myself
Or be like no one else
Fear is not the matter
I would so much rather open up my heart
And just lay down my guard
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I want someone to lift me
Heal my wounds and give me kisses on my head
Say words that should be said
I want someone to lift me
Heal my wounds and give me kisses on my head
Say words that should be said
[Chorus]
Thanks for lyrics!!
So underrated
I used to sing this with so much passion as a kid. Like I was so ready for love lol

"The LORD God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, and He will make me walk on my high hills.
