At this time of year, all we need is a song to warm our hearts. After he’s finished pouring some honey in his cup of lemon tea, Nick Hakim may have one of this kind. We met up with the Brooklyn based singer in a Montreuil café which used to be a piano factory. Calm and focused, he managed to turn this vast industrial hall into an intimate cocoon. « A supernova / Exploded and changed my world ». Nick Hakim sings of the idea of being in your own orbit while everything else floats around you like comets in space. While he caressed the grand piano keys, the life of the restaurant continued : the telephone rang, coffee and cocktail drinkers crossed path, a child had a tantrum… Nick kept whispering « Let it happen, let it happen » like a sort of mantra. An invitation to experience all of the feelings that come with being in love. An inspiring perspective from a generous soul.

this man's talent is unreal, the emotion in his songs sooth your ears and pierce your heart
his chords, melodies, and lyrics are some of the best captured in soundscape. this man deserves all his flowers and then some. his album is hands down my favorite of the year.
my favourite album too! without a doubt
This version is so different from the studio release, but no less emotional. It's like I can feel the pure intention of the song with it stripped down like this. I love them both!
The sweetest angel
Fell into my world
She gives me reason
Was lost for a damn long time
She pours honey
Down my throat
We stay up all night
I watch the sun scan her body
And just
(Let it) Happen
A supernova
Exploded and changed my world
And lost my old ways
I found something new from the ocean
I love you, honey
Glad you found me in this light
I watch the sun scan your body
So damn lovely, every inch
I just
(Let it) Happen
The chords on this are beautiful
I've been in hectic days in this early year of 2023. I came home this evening and get my relax time in a sofa with a glass of coffee. I opened youtube and found this video. It heals me like a breeze of a wind in a side of a forest. Feeling the nature of music from an amazing musician that left me feel better from note to note in the song. Like reading novel of a love story or listening a beautiful poem in the middle of an opera. So good Nick. Your voice and music are theurapeutic and beautiful at the same time. Thank you La Blogotheque. Sending love from Jakarta, Indonesia. ❤️
Love seeing someone else from jakarta enjoying nick.

Somebody getting pregnant by the time this song ends.
its okay .i can help you to do the dish babe.
Dude needs to make an album with organic instrumentation. Didn't care for the last album (massive (2014) fan though), but I KNOW, if dude remade his albums with live instruments, there's no way he could loose. The albums are just noisy compared to his live music. Besides, I don't understand why musicians today don't do it like old school Brazilian or Jazz. Egberto Gismonti renditions of the same song through different periods of life and instrumental technology (synths in late 70s and early 80s). Now that I think about it, a fusion jazz would be DOPEEEE!!!!
