I need one of those blue vynals.. Possibly with Wondaland's signatures. I need to see if there's any left. Love love love love love
Take me to The Palace of the Dogs
Why are you flashing on stage now?
What's with the dirty music videos now?
Keep doing you queen.
Thumbs up if you actually knew about this song before glee
Waaaaay before I just found out Glee perfomed this lol. I'm happy new ppl are being introduced to this amazing woman though.
No one cares about glee god.
I found this song a year or so after its release. I love Janelle
Kennedy Boston =egg of life
What is glee (JK)
I've never seen someone who could dance as well as James Brown or Michael and still make music with the same quality as Stevie Wonder or Marvin Gaye. She really is a once-in-a-generation talent.
Drew Thomas her and Bruno mars
Queen AnG exactly 👌
@@ohemaa_ang yeah
Right, got to love the James Brown moves in here.
She's a great dancer but MJ come on, his talent can not be touched at all although they are both influenced by James Brown
While she may not getting views like most of these "popular" artists. Her talents guarantee her staying power. Pop artists come and go, but real talent is here to stay.
deffbee yh she's already sold out though listen to her new song yoga.. fame and money hungry tbh
xz claire how has that song make her a sell out
WildPanda 1978 loses her unique style to make songs with no substance to sell records..?
xz claire She said that she's experimenting with new sounds. As an artist she's not locked to only sell a certain type of records. You can't blame someone for trying to reach a different audience cause those people that she's able to reach with her new song will listen to her other stuff and many will like what she's about. Her songs don't need to have a deeper meaning to it and you can't say someone is a sellout just by going off of one single.
Angel Herrera ? lol it doesn't have to have a deeper meaning, shes playing the game she just wants money and fame otherwise you would stick to your roots and make music that actually shows some form of talent, anyone could make a song like her new single.. i guarantee everyone will forget her new song within like a month whereas a song like this will be stuck in peoples heads for ages! i cba debating about this
13 years ago, people weren't ready yet. I remember always listening to her music and watching her performances/videos, just thinking people were gonna eat her all up. She deserves it all
Here with you, all these years later. And can’t believe that the masses didn’t react the way I thought they would. She’s a gem. She deserves so much more!
Same!!
they still ain't ready....I been ready since 2006 :)
@@goat1408 me too
But seems like we don't have the same Janelle Monae as before tho. I think the industry got her
Her voice, style, dance, and now acting talent in "Hidden Figures" is top notch! The girl's got it goin' on!
OMG i didn't know she was in hidden figures yeah i remember her character
The perfect mix of rhythm, energy, and class - which is to say, A+ in all three categories *and* seamlessly flowing together in one moment - and indeed one video - besides.
It's a shame that she doesn't get more rec in the mainstream. Music is too much of a popularity contest.
Eric Matterson so true bareley any new artist get the attention they deserve!
kalaireo Jones but she’s not new..lol
Jai Ackermen I know I'm saying new artist don't get a chance. Like Eric said it's a popularity contest. By new I mean bareley known. Thanks for the confirmation
Eric Matterson i agree
Eric Matterson well she's back now and she's gonna be too good to ignore
So apparently I have a major thing for woman in suits/buttonups
Who knew
Ahaha same👀
@Charles Childers That's your opinion
Charles Childers That has nothing to do with the comment?
hahahaha same. This video set my gaydar off before she was out and before I realized I was queer
@Charles Childers That's like, your opinion man.
Have you seen Alizee?
2024 and it's still gold and encouraging
If you don't believe Janelle is talented, you need to reevaluate exactly what you think talent is. Her voice and her moves are slick and absolutely arresting. Janelle is such a great artist and I pray she gets more recognition.
She is most definetly talented I love this song. People should notice talented people like her not Taylor swift or nicki manaj this girl is boss
If only artist like Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift would go away ....
Agreed, she's got the complete package!
I dig her, but peeps don't have to like this song or her style. We don't all have to love the same stuff. No one is above another just because of what we call talent and how it differs as long as they're having fun
She is a mesmerizing entertainer. Just watch her concert at Rock in Rio. Most people didn't know who she was and still they had the time of their lives. :D
The way she dances is so fascinating.
Watch her video for Q.U.E.E.N.
Look at James Brown when he was younger.
Home gyal backup light skinned dancer has my respect fully. She's SSS0000000 S₩€€T!
@@sunrae7680 I was gonna say that it's giving me some James Brown vibes, for sure
She’s magic
Who is here after Janelle being snubbed twice at the Grammys in 2019?
Snakey Snake she deserved better 😩
Yea😣
Snakey Snake I agree! She is amazing!! In every way 😊
Grammys don't love us.
She doesn't need it... We all know, you know?
Some of y'all need to watch some variety shows from the 50s, 60s, and 70s. Miss Janelle's dancing on the shoulders of giants, kids. She was steeped in Doo Wop, Motown, Funk and Soul. Everything old...
9 years?!?!? This ages sooo well!
Like a good wine baby
Timelessness seems to do that
10 now
It is a very 70s funk influenced song, so even though I won't pretend to preach with a "old school is better than your kid music", we can say this song is done in a style that has stood the test of time. Funk is a great influence on many kinds of popular music.
S0QU¡- QI¡ agrees 100%!
what a cool song shes so pretty and very talented
Miss. Phyllis Renee Foster I agree girl
yeah!
Miss. Phyllis Renee Foster SHUT UP ☝
excuse me, no i wont shut up thank you very much
Miss. Phyllis Renee Foster no shut up 👎 we know she is pretty and talented you don't need to point it out who are you to judge someone you're not all that
This song reminds me of "Happy".
Except, you know, everybody on the fucking planet isn't blasting this song to hell.
What do you mean
Their icon is the guy from breaking bad. Don't ask for reason from someone who idolizes a meth cook unless you have stocks in life insurance.
@@AnxiousGary That comment is the most retarded thing I've read today.
I agree. That's why it's the better song.
Usher's
How can a single individual be so astronomically talented in so many specific areas? The singing, the dancing, the lyric writing, the composition, the breadth of artistry to rock whatever style tickles her fancy at a given moment? She blows my mind. Not to mention how incredibly gorgeous she is
Seriously. She's stunning.
She's black 😂
Not to mention her wonderful actress performance in hidden figure
@@EphphathaSalama hell yes
A goat
03:46 "yeah yeah yeah aaaw!"
She makes me remember the little Michael Jackson. ❤
So amazing. I love her.
:)
i know!
Same here.
How does this not have millions of likes? I'm confused...
because of mainstream music and mumble rap
You have to listen to the lyrics Nd it will catch you up
Not everyone has the LEVEL of Taste that WE have....
Pearls before swine.
True
I'm officially in love with Janelle Monàe.
jmo2015 same
Yep. Me 2.
+jmo2015 finally
She soooo dope
+jmo2015 Yup. Now I am
2024 anyone pls 🙏
YES!
My parents exposed me to Janelle Monáe when I was 5. I'm still listening in 2024-2025 in my early 20s
Man, this is so James Brown!
James Brown in da house!
Daniel Anyamele First person I thought about lol! New Name, The Godmother of Soul!!!
James Brown with a touch of Micheal J. Entwined with Prince
Daniel Anyamele I was wondering why I loved this so much!
James hairdo
black ppl are awesome
Emmanuel mason Black Girls Rock
True
Delano, having love for your people isn’t racist
instead of trying to be politically correct and baby yourself that every race is the same realise that black people have a history of cultural differences and in mine and many other people opinions, their music really is awesome
Delano, no one said that black people are awesome just because they’re black. He said “black people are awesome”. Not black people are awesome because their black
James Brown is smiling down with the biggest of grins on his face right now.
Yes he does is 😊.
so glad I was not the only one to think the same ! this song is so Sexy Machine ! how come ive never heard this song b4!
You mean smiling up😅
"Smiling down - Good God!"
Her first couple of releases were stellar. I wish she was still producing music this interesting. I personally just don't find the new stuff that exciting.
So I played this song on Just Dance 3 and this is what happen.
Singer: Shut up!
Me: Shut up?
Singer: Yea.
nerdy _posta 😂😂😂
nerdy _posta oh wow😂😂😂
Funny
Goddy
I remember doing this song in “Just Dance3” years ago brings back memories also the song is good
Me too
On gooooooddddd
I be dancing to this song during quarantine
Yes omg
Holy i forgot about this comment
James Brown Would Have Loved Her!!!
Love this! I totally agree 👍🏻 James Brown was pure brilliance! Very nice and JAZZY!🎵🎷🎺🎶 much love from NYC! 😍❤️
Aramat Jackson #Commiseration🍀🍃🖖🏼🍃🍀.
Yeaahh
For real ❤️✨
"Good God! . . ."
Janelle Monáe is truly one of if not THE greatest sci-fi/speculative fiction creator of our time. Freaking brilliant. Absolute visionary. This is so creative and relevant yet timeless, and it came out OVER TEN YEARS AGO!!!
if this was released in the late 60s (without the rap part), this would be a smash and a huge game changer in r&b history
I tend to think some rap brings back the quality of songs sometimes.
James Brown might’ve had some “competition” if that was the case. Ain’t no funky beat like this today besides her 🙌🏽🙌🏽 nobody heard that “HA” at 3:22. James Brown all day 👍🏽👍🏽 love it
Since a particular music award show felt they needed a woman to stand in for Mr. James Brown (I believe he was very ill or had passed away). This Artist should have been The Lady--NOT Christina Aguilera; although I do enjoy her voice, too.
Lyon Prairie ok first off the guy ft in this song influence her to make this album cause of one of outkast album called Stankonia don’t be ignorant
Lyrics : Whoaaa!
Another day (adabadee, nigga)
I take your pain away
Some people talk about ya like they know all about ya
When you get down they doubt ya
And when you tip it on the scene, yeah they talkin' bout it
Cause they can't tip on the scene
They just talk about it, t-t-t-talk bout it
When you get elevated
They love it or they hate it
You dance up on them haters
Keep getting funky on the scene
While they jumpin' round ya
They trying to take all of your dreams
But you can't allow it
Cause baby whether you're high or low
Whether you're high or low
You gotta tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
T-t-t-tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
Baby, baby, baby, whether you're high or low (high or low)
Baby whether you're high or low (high or low)
You got to tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
Now let me see you do the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
And I'm still tippin' on it
See I'm not walkin' on it
Or tryin to run around it
This ain't no acrobatics
You either follow or you lead, yeah
I'm talkin' bout ya
Keep on blaming the machine, yeah
I'm talkin' bout it
T-t-t-talkin' bout it
I can't complain about it
I gotta keep my balance
And just keep dancin on it
We gettin funky on the scene
Yeah you know about it
Like a star on the screen
Watch me tip all on it
Then baby whether I'm high or low (high or low)
Baby whether you're high or low (high or low)
You gotta tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
Yeah, tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
Baby, baby, baby
Whether you're high or low (high or low)
Baby whether you're high or low (high or low)
Tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
Baby let me see you tight rope (tip, tip on it)
And I'm still tippin' on it
You gotta keep your balance
Or you fall into the gap
It's a challenge but I manage
Cause I'm cautious with the strap
Do damage to your cabbage that
A doctor cannot patch
Why you don't want no friction
Like the back of a matchbook
Daddy Fat Sax will fold you
And your MacBook
Close shows, shut you down
Before we go-go backwards
Act up, and whether we high or low
We gonna get back-up
Like the Dow Jones and NASDAQ
Sorta like a thong in an ass crack
Come on
I tip on alligators and little rattlesnakers
But I'm another flavor
Something like a terminator
Ain't no equivocating
I fight for what I believe
Why you talkin' 'bout it
J-j-just talkin' 'bout it
Some callin' me a sinner
Some callin' me a winner
I'm callin' you to dinner
And you know exactly what I mean
Yeah I'm talkin bout you
You can rock or you can leave
Watch me tip without you
N-n-now whether I'm high or low
(High or low)
Whether I'm high or low
(High or low)
I'm gonna tip on the tightrope
(Tip, tip on it)
Mmm
(Tip, tip on it)
Baby, baby, baby
Whether I'm high or low
(High or low)
High or low
(High or low)
I got to tip on the tightrope
(Tip, tip on it)
Now baby tip on the tightrope
You can't get too high
(You can't get too high)
I said you can't get too low
(We can't get too low)
Cause you get too high
(You can't get too high)
No, you'll surely be low
(No, you'll surely be low)
1, 2, 3, ho!
Yeah, yeah
Now shut up, yeah
Yeah, now put some voodoo on it
Ladies and gentlemen, the funkiest horn section in Metropolis
Yeah, oh
We call that classy brass
Ohh ohh
Oh!
Do you mind?
If I play the ukulele
Just like a little lady
Do you mind?
If I play the ukulele
Just like a little lady

Thank you!

Pervis Parker what you mean
YAAAAS!! lololol
Cdiggi brought me here.

I was looking for this 😂
Me too! Looking for him right now!🤭
My oh my, just look at what music I've discovered today
same
Tobi same
Sad u just found dis song
You found good music in deed
Yup makes you glad to be alive.
This brings a whole new meaning to someone like me who has Bipolar. You can get rather high or extremely low. The key is to stay on the tightrope. Try to keep balanced, emotionaly. Which is not an easy feat.
This is now my anthem!
Such an upbeat song. Love everything about this.
Thanks Janelle Monei
She did this in The Palace of the Dogs Asylum where James Brown and Jimi Hendrix both ended up hospitalized.
Watched this video 30 times and just now picking up on the song being about mental illness.
Oh wow, I'm bipolar as well and I didn't think about it until you mentioned that! :O
who could ever hate this song and video? this song is amazing.
Racist people.
People who disliked the song and video style,it has nothing to do with racism.
Elsa M Towards Blacks? Of course -facepalm-
John Lee Not gonna say I hate or even dislike the song, but the part from big boi was pretty frigging bad and really dates the song with references to stuff like macbooks, the dow, and the nasdaq as well as the line "like a thong in an asscrack." Just general bad lyrics can really take you out of the song especially in the context of the album because his lines completely break the fourth wall. I bet the song would be practically perfect if she wrote all his lines lol.
I remember my daughter showing me this video for the first time when it came out, and I became an instant fan! This song is phenomenal - the vocal, the arrangement, everything, and it so stood out from so many other "hit" songs at that time. Janelle Monae rocks!
I miss this Janelle Monae, but I'm proud of her success nonetheless.
Jason yup
Still my fave song from her.
@@vp3841 tbh I like the remix more
@@ozkan576 oh, gotta check it out.
Can we have this again on her next project. I promise it’s not a regression of your progression Ms Monaè
she has such a sweet little face! so talented too.
I LOVE that short lady! I don't know why but she is so cute that it makes me want to bake a batch of chocolate chip cookies and have a glass of milk!
I love that! Cheers! 😊
+pookiewood agreed. I love Janelle, but i watch this video JUST to see the shorty. Would love to know ho she is.
+pookiewood and with enough scrolling I learned the short lady is one Ladia Yates :)
Yeah, I was loving that beautiful smile at 1:11.
I can’t believe this was a decade ago
She was way ahead of her time, pop these days have nothing on Janelle, I just found about her right now.
Pop ANY days has nothing on Janelle - this is a different level of artistry than your standard pop music from any era of time
James Brown and Michael Jackson live on in this wonderfully talented woman!!
Who else has the “just dance” routine for this song memorized
I thought it was just me!
same !!!
i just danced it and I came to see the video ahahha
ME!
Holy shit it's wild to watch Glass Onion today and realize that this incredible actor sang the song that I so fondly remember all those years ago!
Right??
Her dancing is so expressing how she feels. No cookie cutters in her life. She's dancing what she feels. It's so genuine!! She's feeling it!! I love it!! NO ONE can duplicate how she feels!! May have to see the eye dr, can't see in one eye. It happened suddenly while watching
lol, she just duplicated Pharell's , "HAPPY" beat in the background

Who's listening to this timeless music in quarantine!?
Me :)
Me...This is awesome...always
Listening in the gym room. Makes me motivated.
Me 😏😉
had no idea she was a singer. I saw hidden figures and thought she was cute and wanted to see if she was in anything else... I like her style. it has kind of every generation mixed in.
Beaux Cottle She was great in Moonlight too.
I thought she was an actress only too but then I remembered she sang this song
I think this is one of the most slept on songs on the planet 😂😂😂
Like her music, her face is a work of art.
She is gorgeous!
She is sooooo beautiful indeed
James Brown And Michael Jackson must be proud Thank you
11 years late but i finally heard this song. *jaw drops* janelle is amazing in so many ways, as is this song. such a feel good song + really helped when i needed it. thank you for this masterpiece
Aww. That's amazing. Yes, stay balanced. God bless, wishing many more good vibes to get you through!!
Electric Lady is another good one from her. And look up Res They Say Vision. Peace.
Better late than later
omg this song is amazing wtf so funky!
The beat that comes in at 3:53 is so gorgeous!
👍
yes! LOVE IT.

Hey you're right.
King Jay ** Yea. the entertainment world..... ""Hollywood" has removed the gospel of Jesus Christ...... from their entire circle of people... False-hood, Idol worship and lots of folks/Ceo's who have signed over in blood. the Bible lets you know this country will fall with out, morals and sound leadership. Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellers there is safety. proverbs - riches profit not in the day of wrath but righteousness will delivereth from death. Believers have to stay w the word of the Lord. amen the word gives a clear example of what the end x's would come to. ( Bible ) that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, -- Philippians 2:15 ,, $ cannot be worshiped as the Lord Jesus Christ. when that happens lawless-ness and corruption. "" run wild .. Christ will return . ( 1 Timothy 4: Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons,2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron,
""" the word says it will come a x, when folks will dis regard whats written in scripture. and attempt to gain wisdom apart from the word of God, through other"" false religious books. wanting to be their own..... God. just like Satan when he grew proud and vain. ,, psalms -
Do not gather my soul with sinners,
Nor my life with bloodthirsty men,
10 In whose hands is a sinister scheme,
And whose right hand is full of bribes. pvb. 12 The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.
Am I the only one who thinks that she is like the girl version of Pharrell Williams or he is the boy version of Janelle Monáe? .-.
I thought so too..I watching this and when I scrolled down I saw this!. something about them so similar.
I see a lot of James Brown in her style... But, that's just me. :-)
She has been around longer than Pharrell's singing career.
Charles Salamone Umm... Pharrell was being nominated for GRAMMYs the year she got into the music industry. lol
Typical fan boy
The first time I heard the song I got the chills which happens only when I hear a timeless talent for the first time. Then I saw this video and my impression was confirmed. This woman is a phenomenon, her gifts are boundless. Can't wait to see how her work will continue to unfold.
Sombody pass me some toast cause this is my jam!!!!! Luv you gurl. XD
Symphony Cummings Well here ya go my dear! I brought X-tra currant jam for "Yoga" ,Can you please pass the tea for Q.U.E.E.N while we'er still tipin on it? LOL
YIN-YANGN sure can want one lump or two lumps of sugar?
lol... always 2 please and thank-u!!
YIN-YANGN no problem.
where are my manners? Would u care for any? lol
She's soo classy. I love Her style. The way she acts. Wow.
I concur. She's amazing!
Wow, Taylor Swift really ripped off this groove for Shake It Off.
????? wtf
you can't rip off a groove!
what the fuck are you talking about!
Taylor swift may have wanted to experiment with her sound
but shake it off does not sound like this
Deja Davis Sure you can - same shuffle rhythm, sounds like no other recent song. But she's lily white so it's alright! :)
steve conn Except Shake It Off is repetitive and somewhat grating and this sounds harmonious with glowing vocals so either way I'm not terribly concerned.
Lin Freeman You don't have to be; it's not your work being ripped to greater acclaim.
steve conn Greater acclaim? No. Janelle is a lot more critically acclaimed than Taylor. But yes, Taylor's commercially more successful.
Janelle is a versatile artist. ArchAndroid is her perfect album. She also does her best in performing. Totally a complete package.
😊😅😅😮😢🎉😂❤😂
this video has so many messages
how can u tell me I'm scares
Yes it do
+Jeff Birdy Not doubting or being sarcastic in any way. What messages do you see or stand out to you?
She doesn't mean demonic messages. Prolly has something to do with a minority group of people who have been demonized and repressed because people refuse to understand and respect their cultural norms. The majority want them to conform to their societies standards, but they are trying to hold on to all of their cultural norms without falling into the norms of the majority; hence the word "tight rope'(tight rope representing how hard it is to keep their culture without being influenced or falling into the majorities standards. I tried.
Orange Blossom Well said
so Rihanna can get 34 million views in 3 weeks but Janelle monae cant...... society cant recognize good music
The first day I saw this video I fell in love with her like that's bae right there lol
same here!
Me too.
HAPPY 36TH BIRTHDAY

Female background dancer is a famous popper... forgot her name.
***** Ladia Yates
Annette Holmes Yup !!!! LOL thank you !!!
***** lil buck is in there too
***** Ok, I had to research him. Talent dancer also.
Somehow she manages to keep it so classy yet sexy. I love her, she is beautifully gifted.
HOT!!! SMOKING FUCKING HOT!!! EVERYTHING: the Music, the symbolisms of the moves, the Moves themselves, the concept of the vid, the beauty of everyone in the vid- EVERYTHING! RN/Orderly cracks me up... those glasses, and that expression. Love to watch this vid, and always floored by the fact that someone has brought these moves from Black History into a new generation. Job well done, Madam Monáe, and all who assisted, and/or participated in the making of this piece.
I don't know what's the big deal with Beyonce!! Here's someone who has a shitload more talent without that kind of fanatic fan following.
I always thought Janelle was the most talented current artist imo. Even if many don't feel that way
I laugh every time she says, "Now shut up!" when she's performing because I think: Janelle, you're the only one talking. LOL
Cato_Gal She's telling the band to get quieter. You need to listen to more funk music lol
Karl Marx tell him again man
How have I never heard this song before?
Lyrical Myracle how have I not heard this artist before can't stop tapping my toes
Idk dude she's great, but a lot of people are embarrassed to like her for no reason, imo.
I saw her in Maine at U Orono and Fun. Opened for her. So sick.
Honestly! I know a little of her stuff but I had no idea this was out there 😍
Listen to the remix too it’s dope
She's not a mainstream artist...even though she receives alot of mainstream support. I've been following her career since her 1st album. Most people are shocked when they learn she's linked to Bad Boy Records.
Thank you Jesus I was born black!!!
Thank you Jesus I was born white!!! Wonder if this hits the same????
@@ksk6101Thank Jesus I was born

+bluevioletize Yess! I came here to see if anyone else thought it lol
bluevioletize I definitely agree.
YUp, i think he is... or it's a great costume XD
Im bout to tip on that tightrope.
it has been almost 7 years, still love this song... and video and Janelle still in my top 2 favorite female artists
This is one of those songs no matter when it came out what day what year. That moment and forever it should be a classic.
While watching this, I just realized that Janelle looks like my aunt.
haha
Is your aunt single? LOL. Jk :)
She looks like my cousine lol
She looks like my mom when she was younger
Aww
Work them feet, girl! She is such a badass!
She's like another james brown but just in a woman's body yo
thats exactly what I feel
Except I'm pretty sure she hasn't beat anybody 😅

Am i the only one who notices her saying "Happy Birthday" at the end?
No, that's old news (for the hardcore fans).. It's a reference to George 2.0's birthday, a member of the Wondaland tribe.. He's the guy that introduces Janelle during her live shows..
inflatable2 Listened to the song plenty of times but never noticed it.
inflatable2 Oh ok, cool
He's the guy tipping his top hat to Janelle at 4:23.. ;)
thanks for pointing that out, that's pretty cool
who is here after glass onion? 😅
Janelle Monae is the female James Brown with them dance moves!
so underrated.
She is my favorite robot.

That’s the song I danced in Just Dance 3 (Wii)
😂she's so cute. Gone head girl! Very underrated.
why do I think of "Pharrell Williams - Happy" when I hear this
She could probably teach Pharrell a trick or two.
It has similar influences from the 60s R&B.
Indeed. I love Happy too, btw. Pharrell is good
I love her style...so truly original!
i hate so much she look like a little boy like this..
I miss the old Janelle. I don’t want to be that person not embracing change. 😢
This gurl so classy
Alas, if I could date her...
I know right? She sparked my attraction to classy androgynous women.
Jeremy Hopkins Same
@@lilliannittler792 I believe she's spoken for.
that's the most fantabulous dancing!
Tracy Chapman
I wanna dance like them.
Andjela Tatarovic She has the moves and she is very beautiful
What is not to love about this? I could go on all day. Something new to see and hear every time I do and I can't get sick of it. This is what so much jazz, so much poetry, so much dancing wants to be when it grows up!! This is going to be tough to follow in the future.
Is that the female reincarnation of James Brown ? :-O
Who is listening this in 2019.
meeee
Meh
Yonyon욘욘 you a good boy pr 👧 girl
Hello...🇭🇺
I've been listening since it came out
CHVRCHES.
their version is way better! haha!
Personally, I think Janelle's musical style and voice suits it a little better, but Chvrches' version was very true to their sound and interesting in its own way.
It’s in these moments (and many others) that I LOVE BEING BLACK!!!
