this is real music... her voice takes me to pure serenity!

[@Sofarsounds]

✌️🎤

[@ChristineLeakeyMusic]

Agreed. I only discovered her a few months ago and her music and voice are stunning.

[@TheKeyToMusicOfficial]

i used to think so

[@leannbonton]

We sat beneath a tree who wept in shades of pink
And Spring devolved her speech, the blossoms peaking
With borrowed comfort sipped from bottles made of glass
Ah, Sakura, mono no aware
O, fairweather friend, bending away for the touch of light
O, fair thee well friend, all that I ask is you say goodbye
Along a failing climb, we danced without our wits
Suspended curly wisps -- like clouds of cirrus
Hakanai koi, amai Sakura
Ah, Sakura, mono no aware
O, fairweather friend, bending away for the touch of light
O, fair thee well friend, all that I ask is you say goodbye
Below the waning moon, we chilled our sticky cheeks
And Neptune played a song -- as dreams were changing
The moments that will last were never made of tact
Ah, Sakura, mono no aware

[@Lindin80]

Thank you!

[@adamedwards8026]

This was needed

[@thembi_n]

[@Lindin80]

How? ☺️

[@LawrenceIfYouWill_yup]

Found her this morning, just about the perfect time to find someone like her as it was a rainy sunday morning and now I'm hooked, I don't wanna listen to anything else, she's unreal

[@lucaseddsilva]

In Minas Gerais state, Brazil, we have the expression "NUUU" that may be translated, among many other things, into awe before some breathtaking feeling or situation. Therefore it portraits with consistent accuracy what one may feel listening to this song.

[@moisesmenengucci4795]

aqui em Vitória ES temos a mesma pronuncia.... top demais

[@gabrielsales6710]

Queria conhecer BRs que escutam as músicas dela irl :/

[@jimmymelo5282]

In the NE region the reaction would be something like "tá peste".

[@willklown]

@@gabrielsales6710 Eu também

[@willklown]

Aqui no Rio eu nunca ouvi falar nesa expressão

[@SolarWarden613]

A beautiful quiet evolution

[@sarahlas9542]

i still come back to this and really relish it, so beautiful, unshakable hook

[@willklown]

She's incredibly awesome! *-*

[@ojberrettaberretta5314]

Amazing album in my collection, thanks for vid.

[@Sofarsounds]

[@hakangencolofficial]

Great song, wonderful voice. Congrats! Keep up the good work.

[@Lwize]

Smooth & finger snap-able...

[@MUSICK99]

Didn't realize Stephen Curry could harmonize so well! Amazing!

[@RizaldoMullings]

You mean Eric Andre?

[@pfflyer973]

More like Seth Curry

[@Ксения-ш7у2к]

Мурашки по коже, исполнение прекрасно!)

[@grizzlyblue486]

Surreal

[@gerardoh5365]

Wow. This is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@Sofarsounds]

You are very welcome! Glad you liked it! :)

[@nicolaspulgar1078]

"Fly me to the moon" and that love

[@SolarWarden613]

God bless you Kadjha Bonet

[@patsabono652]

Your voice ... freezes time

[@ProducerYoungBlaise]

Did the crowd figure out the 2nd go around when to stop snapping or did somebody cue them? Haha that was bothering me but Kadhja -- you're phenomenal!!

[@blahmonster1234]

Can we get more of this?

[@hazalmuzik3541]

💙

[@anastasiapandora1595]

💜🔥

[@НатаСтраздина]

Жаль, изъяли клип из доступа.

[@ennuiii]

Shes like a female Moses Sumney... but obviously predates him so i guess hes a male Kadhja Bonet!

[@teinspringz]

What was that about the 'sticky cheese'?

[@oteperihanim]

Sorry for finding you so late…

[@EsuMandusa]

sing gaaaaaaaaaaaal!

[@shmeetheoriginal]

Wow I lived that performance. The finger snapping was kind of annoying...

[@ennuiii]

Yeah I agree

[@Marubi2]

Yeah always cringeworthy

[@betus9929]

Türk var mı diye yorumları okuyanlar +1

[@ainsleywainsley]

im sorry but the crowd clicking along really fucked up the song lol

[@alanoneill3065]

vacuous, throwaway, disposable ..will be forgotten in 2 years...oh wait...how many comments recently? the crowd will have moved on to the "next big thing" as soon as they woke up the following day

[@TheKeyToMusicOfficial]

yes. because this artist is an a-hole in person.

[@SOHara-ob7rl]

Where did you meet the artist?
*

[@ivanalaurol6571]

seriously? is she mean in person

[@alanoneill3065]

rich kids having a whale of a time, whilst...

[@alanoneill3065]

they are so bored with their wealth...

[@sexxiehighblue07]

Soothing and beautiful.
