Love Love Love Shemekia! She sings with every fiber of her being. I love it when a performer just gets completely immersed in a performance. She makes you smile, gives you goosebumps and can even bring a tear to your eye. Thank you for sharing your gift.

I saw her daddy in a club in Westchester, Pennsylvania roundabout 1992 before he passed after he had his heart transplant and I was blown away. I’ve seen her five or six times and she never fails to stop bringing tears to my eyes when she sings this song, she is beyond amazing live
