Jill Scott is comfort food, a warm hug on a cold day, a venting session to your best friend, a night out on the town, the sun illuminating after a million storms, and water providing life to dying plants. I love her!
Lack of Grammys ≠ underrated. Y’all use that word too loosely. Miss Scott is an internationally renowned, PLATINUM selling recording artist, author AND actress. Who is under-rating her??? If the Grammy board is your measuring stick, you need to aim higher.
So are we going to acknowledge that this is a band of inner city kids from California playing amazingly beautiful behind her? This is more than a vibe. #tears ❤️
Thank you for this information. Watching this video through a new lens. Listening to every tune. Jill from North Philly and inner city CA kids on stage performing professionally together....this is PHENOMENAL.
Jill Scott is the TRUTH!!!!! But the the string arrangments was breathtaking also, these kids played their asses off behind one o the greastest voices of all time....
Oh Shiit..U Made me Bus out laughin w this one Sis😂😂😂..BUT Never the less Jill is Simply Amazing ..Peace 2 The Queen ..Chillz & All that on this 1YASS 😘❤❤👑
I think of my late partner sweetness and kindness every time I play this song. He was seriously the most loving person. He allowed me to be me, and I appreciated him.
everytime i watch this i get a tear in my eye,,,,,its unexplainable,,,,,,,,,,there is nothing that walks this earth more beautiful than black woman,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,nothing
Jill is the truth. This performance never gets old and is absolutely soul-stirring. I'm talking chills and tears. The children playing strings wondrously takes it to another level. She did her thing. Powerfully and poetically.
I would have died... right there... in the audience! This is BY FAR the most incredible performance I've ever seen. Vocals were unbelievable! And then she had a live orchestra... Woo!
I see it His* as a typo... His* should have been THis??? just saying. 'cause Her Lady makes no sense either lol title or no... Jill's voice is beautifully one of a kind. Her vocal talents sing for themselves... Wholeness n Love ((-;
Well, I'm crying! My sister-in-love just sent this to me. My brother, her husband, recently died. She said this is how he made her feel. What a love!!Rest in peace, R.L.P.♥️
This is by far one of the best vocal performances I’ve seen. Can we respect one black woman’s talent without disregarding others. I mean honestly. People have different lanes for a reason! Beyoncé might not be able to do this and that’s fair but I can’t see Ms Jill Scott running and dancing in hells and belting at the same time either like Beyoncé does! Let’s respect each other.
3:03 was a cry from God. What an example of Black female power and Soul. Forget Beyoncé, I’m sorry but Jill (underrated) is the epitome of one of the best vocalist of the modern day. This was an out of body experience 🔥
every little hair on my body is standing on end and tears in my eyes. She is amazing. I love you Jill Scott! If I EVER get married my playlist will consist of a lot of Jill Scott. She makes me feel like love can conquer it all. even if it gets a little hard. Thank you Jill in sharing your supernatural talent with the world.
Seven years later and this performance still brings TEARS to my Eyes!!! Thank you Jill, Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world. Thank you, you are loved!
What she did with her diaphram hanging in a loop creating a 3D pitch by waiving her hands in a circle pulling on her diaphram at 3:16 was miraculous... My friends..Jill is LEGEND ...
This song: it's singer, the rendition, delivery, backup, accompanying musicians - deserve not just Like but LOVE. TH-cam, y'all need to put a LOVE Button, if only just for this song/video/experience. W.A.W. ! Jill Scott, girl, there are no words except GOD bless you, GOD has blessed you, GOD is blessing you! W.A.W.! Nuff said.
It’s really just something about the rawness of this performance that is otherworldly- I always come back to it and it gives me chills year after year. Something about how she rode the strings was just on another frequency that I don’t think any other artist has achieved in my lifetime. It’s easily one of the best performances ever if not the best performance ever ❤🔥🔥🔥🔥
I've been coming back to this video for many years and it still feels like I'm hearing it for the very first time. Brilliant performance by Jill Scott, excellent musicality, technicality, style, everything about this performance is impeccable! The kids did a wonderful job as accompaniment, they matched her vocals and brought their own flavor too. This is what love feels like!!!
I just heard it for the first time and I gotta say wow I just went through a Rollercoaster of emotions SEVERAL times in the same song. Everytime she held a long note or delicately articulated a note I would choke up at the sheer beauty in her voice. I felt like I owed her something for allowing me to experience such a high level of talent and skill.
The way she was playing a string instrument (cello) , She was so deep into it. I love you Jill Scott for touching my heart everytime. I cant stop replaying 💙💙
I see that Gill Scott has preformed this song several times in different formats. This is the best. Her soul is in it. I also enjoyed the young ladies playing the strings. That was a fabulous touch. Thank you Ms. Scott 💝
Max Augustine Adele is a Very good Singer and she puts the likes of a Rihanna or a Beyonce to shame but she is no Aretha, Celin Dion, or Whitney Houston those are Great Singers and truth be told she doesn't have the vocal range of a Jill Scott.
Isabel Rodriguez Celine Dion has one of the most unique voices in Music you know it automatically when you hear it, again Adele is a good singer but she is no different than any good soul singer you have heard before.
I had never seen this and I am sitting here with tears streaming down my face. This woman is - I don't have the words right now. Extraordinary performance! She reinvented that song.
Here I am at 2am unexpectedly in tears. I was not ready for such a beautiful performance with so much soul. So unexpected and on a rendition at that. Never thought she would out do herself that much!
Who’s here in 2024?
Me!!!❤❤❤❤
Me! 🤎 Jilly from Philly!!
Classic 👍

Years have passed. "This voice remains the same in 2024 👑
She DESERVES more Grammys. She's been under rated for many years.
Lack of Grammys ≠ underrated. Y’all use that word too loosely. Miss Scott is an internationally renowned, PLATINUM selling recording artist, author AND actress. Who is under-rating her??? If the Grammy board is your measuring stick, you need to aim higher.
She went under the radar.
When she lost Best New Artist, I have up all expectations of the Grammys.
I SO AGREE ALSO THINK SHE WOULD PLAY THE PART OF Billy Hollyday, just her artistic style
💯Underrated indeed. Even this live performance is underrated.
I can't imagine how difficult or doable that could be for those of us who cannot sing. 😂
So are we going to acknowledge that this is a band of inner city kids from California playing amazingly beautiful behind her? This is more than a vibe. #tears ❤️
Agreed....clapping
Wowww I didn’t know that! They played like true professionals!
Hello Rosalyn , how are you doing?

This rendition reminds me of a modern day opera. I love how she made this song into an aria.
Just an Observation frfr
Cliff Smith sticking up for jazz lol I love it
Exactly how I felt as the chills ran through my body “opera” quality Miss Scott indeed ❤❤❤
Yes. I always think of the Flower Duet song from Delibes Lakme opera. Especially the beginning and end with the high notes
No words would do this justice. Just listen!!
BUT SERIOUSLY THOUGH, HOW THA HELL SHE OUTDID HER OWN DAMN SONG?
V Wiggins You are the first one who actually realised that. Absolutely Perfect!!! Your Right!!!!
LOL!!!
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING???!!!!

Girl what? Beyoncé can ABSOLUTELY do this
@@blueberryburg7513Show and prove
@@blueberryburg7513 she can sing he loves me but not on this level let's be fr
@kikigam7113 you’re right. Beyoncé will sing it at a higher and technical level. But I love how textured and lived in Jill’s voice sounds.
This was performed at the Lady Of Soul Awards in Los Angeles in August 2001... Jill was great!
Melvin's Channel There are stars in the solar system, but she is planet Jill Scott landing on us.
Thank you!
The same month & year that we lost Aaliyah. RIP.
My, My, My... The children playing the music... i just noticed that! Awesome
3:01 is MY FAVORITE PART! The violinist closest to Jill is serving me LIFE ugh!
I noticed her too, played her notes but still jamming the beat... Awesome
She is first chair. First violinist. Her music is slightly different.
+nikiejuly23 .... Me too! Life! Yaaassss gone baby girl & jill! I ain't got to say nothin! Lol

Hello Aquarian, how are you doing?
damn, she did just give like 4 minutes of pure vocals, like the legends do. Way to go jill.
Jill Scott 🔥 In her own lane, needs no validation, it’s ridiculous to compare artist. On REPLAY 👍🏽
pure passion and intensity. fucking LOVE her
Speechless ❤
she is such a force of nature
literally cried.so beautiful. Bless you Miss Scott
So powerful. yet so gentle to hear. such a beautiful performance, woman, and song
Seven years later and this performance still brings TEARS to my Eyes!!! Thank you Jill, Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world. Thank you, you are loved!

Oh that was healing to my soul. The way only a sista can do it.

Impeccable. Artistry at its finest.

Hands down her best performance ever!
goosebumps rose all over my skin, and I'm afraid it will become permanent.... AMAZING performance!!!

The band leader put his foot in that music boiiiii! No words for this instrumental the original sounds nothing like this 😂😂
Sweet Strings be playing great orchestra.
This is pure talent anyone that cant like this I feel sorry for u.
I just cant stop watchin this
My ears don't deserve her voice. She's a goddess.
Imagine being the man who inspires this... Wow.
I am dying here , she gave me a heart attack. this is purely brilliant
The way she was playing a string instrument (cello) , She was so deep into it. I love you Jill Scott for touching my heart everytime. I cant stop replaying 💙💙
Chills/Goosebumps 🙌🏾
The amazing band that accompanies Ms. Jill Scott are not "inner city" kids. They are simple extraordinary talented kids.
I see that Gill Scott has preformed this song several times in different formats. This is the best. Her soul is in it. I also enjoyed the young ladies playing the strings. That was a fabulous touch. Thank you Ms. Scott 💝
Hello Barbara, how are you doing?
I am a superfan. And although I love this rendition, she has a live performance in Philly where she does a Spanish version of the song... Phenomenal❤❤
The orchestra are inner city young children call, "Sweet Strings"
I was like wait are these kids/teens playing like this!!!! I watched this 15 times!! Straight chills. WOW JILL AND SWEET STRINGS
Don't want to hear another word about how great Adele is
Adele is great.
Max Augustine Adele is a Very good Singer and she puts the likes of a Rihanna or a Beyonce to shame but she is no Aretha, Celin Dion, or Whitney Houston those are Great Singers and truth be told she doesn't have the vocal range of a Jill Scott.
Adele is no Jill Scott, but she's definitely better than Celine Dion
Isabel Rodriguez Celine Dion has one of the most unique voices in Music you know it automatically when you hear it, again Adele is a good singer but she is no different than any good soul singer you have heard before.

Okebaram E I agree, Jill Scott is the forgotten... spirit trying to reach out to all of us in the time of need. Jill is the force.
I wish the song never ended. My god this woman is outta this world
I had never seen this and I am sitting here with tears streaming down my face. This woman is - I don't have the words right now. Extraordinary performance! She reinvented that song.
Here I am at 2am unexpectedly in tears. I was not ready for such a beautiful performance with so much soul. So unexpected and on a rendition at that. Never thought she would out do herself that much!
