Love this version her voice is so relaxing ....

[Micho]

weird to say, but I didn't realize how amazing the instrumental bits were until I heard this version

[Probably_Talhah]

Looks like this version will now be on my spotify playlist.

[danielpena]

Wow, it's been 10 years already? Seems like yesterday I was driving from New York to San Francisco, while this was playing.

[carlossantana]

Ah, fantastic. A version without K*nye. 1000% improved.

[youtubejukebox]

Thank you whoever uploaded this, I had found out about it on wiki under track listings and was worried that YouTube may not have had a video on it. Years later still the best version of this song in my opinion, and the video has great quality too!

The keys on this are so smooth. Nicely subtle in the back of the mix.

"I'm liking this American Boy"

[ilikewomen]

Never getting over the fact that she voices garnet from SU.

[bigfee]

Its so weird listening to this song not thinking about chug jug with you

[rachelvelander]

See its not the rap that was the problem here, it was the rap *artist* for me. Whatever Estelle saw in him for this track, i have no clue.

[robotrockboy]

Why rappers ruin a lot of good songs? thanks for the upload.

[clementnkomo]

This is wicked! Garnet should make more songs

[aaronwolf]

After everything Kanye has siad this year, I'm gonna be playing this version cause this song stills bangs but like...Kanye

[chihauhaun]

Thank God, I always skip Kanye's parts so this is perfect! Thank you so much!!!!

[jameshamilton]

The song type is perfect for Estelle a voice. So smoothe

Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy, American boy
He said Hey Sister
It's really really nice to meet ya
I just met this 5 foot 7 guys who's just my type
I like the way he's speaking his confidence is peaking
Don't like his baggy jeans but I'ma like what's underneath it
And no I ain't been to MIA
I heard that Cali never rains and New York heart awaits
First let's see the west end
I'll show you to my bredrins
I'm like this American boy, American boy
Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy, American boy
Can we get away this weekend
Take me to Broadway
Let's go shopping baby then we'll go to a cafe
Let's go on the subway
Take me to your hood
I neva been to Brooklyn and I'd like to see what's good
Dress in all your fancy clothes
Sneaker's looking Fresh to Def I'm lovin' those Shell Toes
Walkin' that walk
Talk that slick talk
I'm likin' this American Boy, American boy
Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy, American boy
Would you be my love, my love
Could be mine would you be my love my love, could be mine
Could you be my love, my love
Would you be my American boy, American boy
Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy, American boy

[lucjuszmocarny]

Finally I've found this song, after all these years

[PolarNitaIsTired]

That's probably the most literal (no rap) version I've seen
Just the beginning feeling like weird void, but not necessarily feeling empty

It's weird, but cool

[isumairu]

I'm glad we got the version without the disgraced Kanye. I'll be listening to this one instead.
