her voice brings me to tears. the amazing talent that she is. Her songs I love, but to hear her live is like an angel visiting your ears for a mere few mins. I am a FAN!
Just breathe Remember to breathe Just breathe... Verse 1: All around me, everywhere Seems like nothing but despair Confusion, disillusion Hanging in the air Global melancholy smears a stain across the sky Somewhere right now someone's crying And I just don't know why Chorus: But I gotta believe That this ain't the end of the road It's all a bad dream Until you believe And you gotta know The story is still to be told Just breathe Remember to breathe Verse 2: I kept my four leaf clover Clutched tightly in my hand The things I thought were useful I just don't understand ( I don't understand) So I clicked my heels a thousand times And opened my eyes I just don't know why (Don't know whyyyy, I can't breathe Don't know whyyyy, I can't breathe) With all that's going on around me I just don't know why or How my heart remembers To keep on lookin' t'ward the sky But you gotta believe That this ain't the end of the road (It's gonna be alright) It's all a bad dream (what you see) Until you believe (gotta believe) And you gotta know (you gotta know) The story is still to be told (still to be told) Just breathe Remember to breathe You gotta believe, (gotta believe) that this ain't the end of the road, it's gonna be alright it's all a bad dream (can't you see) until you believe (gotta believe) and you gotta know, (you gotta know) the story is still to be told (still being told) just breathe, remember to breathe, (remember to breathe) breathe, gotta believe me, (gotta believe me) breathe (gotta believe, gotta believe) ouu, ouu, ouu----ouu, ouu, ouu, ouu, ouu, ouu it's gonna be alright... ouu, ouu, ouu (remember to breathe) hey yea....everything is gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright, yea yea remember to breathe, remember to breathe yea, (gotta believe me) fade out....
Any time my days get heavy, I pray and listen to this song!! I have such a different appreciation for this version vs. the studio version. I loved both either way. Thanks for posting and thanks to Lalah for continuing to share her gift with us!
Hello friends, this is Doug Payne of Doug Payne & Polygon. I had the chance to meet Lalah at the 2015 Marian Anderson Awards held in Philly. I told her that I attended her father's memorial service held at Rankin Chapel when I was a music student at Howard University. I remember when Stevie Wonder sent a beautiful acknowledgement to Donnie. She laughed when I told her that the music professors at Howard were tough on us because of the success of their former students Donnie & Roberta.
Have the CD, but haven't listened to in a bit. Saw her, front row, at a Gospel According to Jazz concert about two years ago in Mitchellville, MD.......Couldn't stop grinning. Clearly, apples do not fall from trees. Thanks Donnie! Your baby girl is truly a gift from God.
She has been in so many beautiful songs by her......but this is defintely one of my favorites of hers........I like the full version better but the rhodes is buttery and compliments her voices well
There are very few whose vocals I consider nothing less than outstanding. Phil Perry, Rachelle Ferrell and the inimitable LALAH HATHAWAY. No one crafts their vocals with the skill she uses. Simply OUTSTANDING VOICE. One of my favs.
Just beautiful. I love this stripped down version with just piano. It makes for a very effective pairing. Also love the song lyrics. If only people and society would learn to breathe, to consider your fellow man or woman, to quote another song, what a wonderful world it would be.
This song has got me through a lot of late nights in college studying haha. So when i go to med school one day i will in part thank this song for getting me through the nights i thought i couldn't continue on and that it was all too hard. All i had to do was breatheeeee!! Thank you lalah.
It doesn't make sense how in love I am with this woman! Her voice is AMAZING! Her talent isn't recognized like it should be. GOD Bless you Ms. Lalah!!!
Another great singer that doesn't get talked about. All the singers that can sing, never get their props.
So true
Her voice is like heaven 🥺❤️❤️
...The story is still being told...remember 2 Breathe! Thanks and Love.
Lalah's voice is smooth like a chocolate milk shake.
There no vocalist on this planet who have that many tones inside of one tone .
Beautiful, dont forget Gladys!
Marcel Davis Sr...Agree!!!
This is called music.
Am I the only on doing the harmonies? 😂😂 I loveeeeee this song and this sanginggggg woman!!
Sitting here with closed eyes and I can imagine her father on keys while she sings so effortlessly!! Lovely thoughts 💜💜
That’s a beautiful sight!
Her voice is smooth like butter.. Her father is smiling down proudly I know.
Wow what a beautiful spirit and vibe! Yes exactly smooth and so comforting
The message in this song is so uplifting it actually brings tears to my eyes...
Pianist is confidently busy but Lalah is there right on time as she deposits unique effervescence.
Amazing voice!!
I’ve purchased every album she’s ever made QUALITY MUSIC aka Lalah Hathaway!!!!!!!!!!!
Me too!!
her voice brings me to tears. the amazing talent that she is. Her songs I love, but to hear her live is like an angel visiting your ears for a mere few mins. I am a FAN!
I think so
addi-the gamer ahow ..100% lol
Her voice is pure heaven!
Effortlessly she just sings, raw talent baby!!!!!!:)
Just breathe
Remember to breathe
Just breathe...
Verse 1:
All around me, everywhere
Seems like nothing but despair
Confusion, disillusion
Hanging in the air
Global melancholy smears
a stain across the sky
Somewhere right now someone's crying
And I just don't know why
Chorus:
But I gotta believe
That this ain't the end of the road
It's all a bad dream
Until you believe
And you gotta know
The story is still to be told
Just breathe
Remember to breathe
Verse 2:
I kept my four leaf clover
Clutched tightly in my hand
The things I thought were useful
I just don't understand ( I don't understand)
So I clicked my heels a thousand times
And opened my eyes
I just don't know why
(Don't know whyyyy, I can't breathe
Don't know whyyyy, I can't breathe)
With all that's going on around me
I just don't know why or
How my heart remembers
To keep on lookin' t'ward the sky
But you gotta believe
That this ain't the end of the road
(It's gonna be alright)
It's all a bad dream
(what you see)
Until you believe
(gotta believe)
And you gotta know
(you gotta know)
The story is still to be told
(still to be told)
Just breathe
Remember to breathe
You gotta believe, (gotta believe) that this ain't the end of the road, it's gonna be alright it's all a bad dream (can't you see)
until you believe (gotta believe) and you gotta know, (you gotta know) the story is still to be told (still being told) just breathe, remember to breathe, (remember to breathe)
breathe, gotta believe me, (gotta believe me) breathe (gotta believe, gotta believe) ouu, ouu, ouu----ouu, ouu, ouu, ouu, ouu, ouu
it's gonna be alright... ouu, ouu, ouu (remember to breathe) hey yea....everything is gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright, yea yea remember to breathe, remember to breathe yea, (gotta believe me)
fade out....
There are no accidents, it happen as it should have. It's just the beginning of so so much more to come.
Sounds like her father!!!!!:)
This truly is a real artist. I LUV when she harmonizes with her own voice......Simply Perfection @ it's Best🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lalah's voice and that Roland Juno sweet!
Her vocals are so smooth. I'm just mesmerised
Any time my days get heavy, I pray and listen to this song!! I have such a different appreciation for this version vs. the studio version. I loved both either way. Thanks for posting and thanks to Lalah for continuing to share her gift with us!
