[FassinTaak]

I was sold on 'Skeeby bop bo'

[s.s.]

his voice is like a big pack of crayolas with the sharpener on the back. the special editions that have like glitter in em

[mateusdeassissilva]

"She lives in my lap
But who lives in my heart?"

That always hits hard.

[yo.auds_]

”Sex is always better when there’s feelings involved ”, how he sang that part gave me chills down my spine

[TacoSnipezZ]

makes you focus on the lyrics rather than the catchy tune and makes you realize what the song is actually about

[maui]

dont forget the band and the backup singers they also really good though it had some good ass flow though and dont forget the guy that whistle in the background lol

[davidtuley]

This is a timeless cover of this song. I keep coming back.

[cynthiakay]

[Verse 1]
My baby don't mess around
Because she loves me so
And this I know for sure
But does she really want it
But can't stand to see me
Walk out the door?
Don't try to fight the feeling
Cause the thought alone is killing me right now
Thank God for Mom and Dad
For sticking through together
Cause we don't know how

[Hook]
Hey ya!
Hey ya!
Hey ya!
Hey ya!

[Verse 2]
You think you've got it
Oh, you think you've got it
But "got it" just don't get it
When there's nothing at all
We get together
Oh, we get together
But sex is always better
When there's feelings involved
If what they say is "Nothing is forever"
Then what makes, what makes, what makes
What makes, what makes, what makes love the exception?
So why you why you, why you why you why you
Are we so in denial
If you know we're not happy here?
(Ya'll don't give a damn, ya'll just wanna dance)
Yebo!
[Hook]

[Bridge]
She lives in my lap
But who lives in my heart?
Who lives in?
Who's in love?
Who survives? Who's in love?

[Verse 3]
(YEBO!)
We rose like a rose from the stone
Under fluorescent light
Love like glass in the water
And we thought it was it was ice
Cold like earth when it froze
Unforgiven, forgive it for it was dead from the go
We kissed under the vultures, confused it for Mistletoe
We jumped into the ocean without learning how to float

[Outro]
(Who survives? Who's in love?)

[makiarose]

I love at 2:07 when he says "she lives in my lap but who lives in my heart" 😭

[omall]

Kamau x Chance The Rapper x Andre3000!

[rootsgotv]

3 yrs late to the party but happy to have arrived. This is dope😊✨🎶💛🤘🏽

[mrgazeboman]

I love this version cause you actually get the intent of the lyrics instead of thinking it’s a happy giddy song.

[sikmunkee]

Something small I appreciated bout this is that the video wasn't focused on him the whole time. Like the camera went around to the different people who made the song good. A lot of other artists focus their videos on themselves. Just something I noticed and appreciated

[sight]

Kamau x Chance the rapper would be godly

[liyahaq]

Went from "Oh that's Chance" to "Nawl that's Andre" to who is this and why am I three years late

[maxxthemarshan]

I like this version more in all honesty. Don't get me wrong Andre 3000 is a god among legends... But this... This is what my heart sounds like when I read the lyrics. The way he's able to give life to the pain in the confusion of the words is, I don't even know the correct word but "heavy" comes to mind

[yvngtrapgodd]

y'all saying chance x kamau but you wont be able to tell who is who .

[sydniclark]

I would give anything to have just been standing in this room while it was being made. amazing energy😍

[aysialane]

Over the years I’ve always found myself coming back to this. It’s so beautiful and so well done. It really makes you feel the energy in the room.

It's a crime this isn't on Spotify.
