This song is something else. Not like a normal song. It seems like one but It has its own attracting power. I don't know why I so much love this song but this song is just amazing. 👍🙏👍
Thanks, Jimmy. Not only do I love that you're showcasing artists from outside the West, but I'm also the American mother of a 7 year old daughter, Emiliana, residing in Iran. Oddly, all non-Americans seem to get her name easily, pronouncing it correctly. However, Americans generally look at us like we have 2 heads and either call her Emi or Emily Anna. Hopefully you and CKay will finally let people know the pronunciation and that no, we did not make up this name (I get asked this very frequently).
I just love it when I see artist playing a musical instrument. It reminds me of musicians of old like PeterTosh....a musical god!. Something very rare these days. Well done Ckay👍
@@obinnaachor6422 it's romantic if it's a song to someone you love or in a relationship with... Ckay is obviously singing to a lady he is madly in love with and he's talking about his girl's body and how beautiful her body is, so opening her body for him to see is not a big deal... I bet she will gladly do that if she's into him as well... That's purely romance... Nwanne calm down! 😅
