Heres the deal with this one.. After we recorded "Kate" we had a few minutes left over. We played the 'what does everyone know' game and came up with this! This is the first and only take.

[gricklegrass]

Scary Pockets is next level. But no matter how many times hear this, it is clear that Maiya is at a level that the gods can not conceive, .

[MrSonnydays]

When everything seems wrong I come here and this voice makes me feel loved. Thank you.

[thydevdom]

Her voice has SO much range, from strength to calm and high to low. This was a super dope performance.

[coreykramek]

Maiya Sykes has to be one of the best singers of all time...just so effortless. She could do any cover of any song and make it unreal with so much feeling

[save_theworld]

These guys are so relaxed. That's how music should be. Playing from the heart.

[viswaprasanna]

It is staggering to think they created this in a SINGLE take.
Absolutely brilliant!

[mikeypadventures]

These type of singers don't come along very often. She's a marvel.

[robynmcdonnell]

Amazing. The pianists are subtly amazing. The musicians are just as good as she is. They all really compliment one another. Put a smile on my face

[MrDoolan]

I can't stop listening to this.. So authentic. Talent in pure form. The drummers reaction says it all..

[ivanpaultaurua]

How do you not respect this icon of soulmate delivery this woman makes me cry for my miss spent youth to live again against the backdrop of today’s crisis that’s wiped out the smiles this woman’s voice has restored some forgotten happier memories thank you heaven

[perryjensen]

Every person in the room is having the time of their lives!

[valenciabush]

I come back here and listen to this song over and over. What you all did with this is magic! And to know that it wasn't even planned. Mind-blowing!
