I need this to be louder. Max volume isn’t enough.
Anna Blake I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU ♥️
Mobile users on thosands of dollar headphones agree
It's not enough, sis!
😢😢😢
I made a quick master of this using the UA-cam audio. I think they left it quiet because the vocoder used in the original is a little rough. (vocoder is the thing that sounds like a robot that sings with her). The mix was pretty decent but a little flat -- sounds quite a bit fuller and better with the mids set to a wider stereo image. Overall the dynamic picture was flat so somebody DID master it, or at least normalize it when they bounced it out. I don't think it was maximized, though. It does sound much better, louder though. Especially with a semi-decent master. *toss toss*
Tone, range, control, and scales for days! YEBBA has easily become a favorite of mine.
KONA AMEN AMEN AMEN
Same.
KONA You too? Lol 😂
Mine too!
For a moment there I actually thought that those were the titles of her other songs that you are currently binging on. Gosh I'm so slow.
I'm so ashamed I hadn't heard of Yebba until 2022! What I'm NOT ashamed to say is I am thoroughly obsessed with her talent and artistry. The control of her instrument is by far the most impressive I have ever heard. I can listen to the same song a dozen times and hear something more incredible than the time before. While I have great respect for many vocalists, I can say without reservation, this young lady stands alone in a class set aside exclusively for her. Yebba is on repeat EVERYWHERE I go! I pray she has a long life and long career. 🙏🏿
You should checkout Moonchild also
Like so many of US!!!

If you dislike a song written by a daughter for her mom you're a sad human being!! We love you Yebba!!
You're toxic.
Her voice is what they call anointed. Just gets u in ur spirits. Last part took me to church. ❤
Yea this is it folks.
Nah you gotta watch her performance tribute of this song to her mother in the church they used to attend. That’s it!!!!
YEBBA if you're reading this, you need to know that not once have I listened to this beautiful song and not cried. Thank you for writing this, expressing yourself and sharing it with the world.
My wig is in orbit around the earth. This is amazing.
[Verse 1] I kissed my penny and I threw it in I prayed I'd keep my soul Went down to the river where the water bends The only place I know [Pre-Chorus] Oh, I can't see The forest For the trees [Chorus] So will you wait for me? Will you wait for me? Will you wait for me? My evergreen [Verse 2] Standing at the water's edge The Mississippi's overflowing Hold your current in my hands You bring the meaning to my moments [Pre-Chorus] Oh, I can't see The forest For the trees [Chorus] So will you wait for me? Will you wait for me? Will you wait for me? My evergreen [Bridge] Oh, I can't see The forest For the trees Oh, I feel so Hopeless against the stream [Chorus] So will you wait for me? My evergreen I know it's just as hard in Heaven So will you wait for me? My evergreen I know it's just as hard My evergreen Evergreen My evergreen

For the trees
[Chorus]
So will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?

So will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?

So will you wait for me?
My evergreen
I know it's just as hard
My evergreen
Evergreen

Gerardo Hernández Exactly!!!
Gerardo Hernández You're a good man Gerardo! 😊
I like how every colouring is backed by emotions in her singing. Such talented singers often just show off their technical skills, and sound like music box dolls.
Her voice is beyond ridiculous. 😍😍😍
I wish the audio on speaker and headphones was a tad bit louder. Volume is low so I cant enjoy it full blast like Id want to.
aja thompson I thought I was the only one who thought it was very quiet
yea, the saavn version sounds good. actually I was searching for the video song, and ended up here. this one got no vloume!
Find What Makes You Beautiful hard bro wana get the full effect lol
Preach!!!
My music player doesn't have Adblock yet and it's fucking stupid how loud the ads are compared to the music
I'm crying when I listened to this song for the first time, and I looked for the meaning of this song and found out Yebba wrote it for her mom, which I cried cuz I miss my mom too.
Will you wait for me ma? I know it's just as hard in heaven.
Abbey, I've been following you for about a year now. Had the same reaction as most people do, especially if the first thing they hear is 'My Mind', and then 'Evergreen'. Surprise, wonder, and heartache. It's rare to hear someone that has a tremendous vocal ability, the wisdom to know how to use that voice, and then add emotional layers to tell a story.
As many others have noted, I'm so sorry about your experience with your mom's passing, and other traumas that you've experienced. Thank you for allowing us into that vulnerability with your music. I wish only the greatest success, and the happiest life for you.
Look forward to enjoying your music for many years to come.
Peace.
Most underrated singer of all time. This song is just AWESOME and your vocals are always on point. I'm happy to get to know you from "Sofar" and now look at you! You're in Sam Smith's new album and now this song. Love you! You will SLAY the world, can't wait for your album/ep. Adele, be careful xD
Give her some time :-)
Agnieszka Werpachowska yas ♥️
Rossana Campos truth baby truth !
exactly my thoughts too!
she reminds me of Adele in her early days.
It is so sick the talent Yebba has! Can you believe those riffs and runs! SMH👏👏👏
why is the volume so low? :(

So we gonna keep getting glasses of water in this pace of thirst. This is like a banana before thanksgiving. I want the complete meal!!! Can a brotha get a complete CD.
Knowing the meaning behind your name and this song is so tear jerking. You’ve been blessed with such a beautiful voice. Thank you for sharing it with the world. I pray you find solace and an end to your grief. May your mother Rest In Peace. Much love to you❤️❤️❤️❤️
Scott Hoying I will like to thank you for introducing me to this amazing artist

janesmith4h 😂😂🤣😆😆😅👍#bestcomment
Absolutely beautiful !!!!! Vocals pure enough to bring tears to the eye . I'm so glad I was introduced to YEBBA !!!!!!
I LOVE YOUR VOICE. You are so beautiful in spirit and in talent and life. This song is such an amazing gift to the world. The debut description on iTunes was an understatement. This is so pretty, powerful, poetic. Keep your originality. It makes you beautifully authentic.
Wow! I hear sadness from her past mixed with a new excitement for the future. God Bless!
Listen, her tone, range an everything comes together. She has become a singer that is pure to listen to and just zone out. Many people can't say that. Be bless and continue to strive to the TOP!!!!!
You are an incredible artist. This song aids me in my coping with deep depression and helps me to be more aware of actual fragility and how finite we are. I am sincerely sorry she is gone. Sending love always because you are creating it.
How dare she sings like this? *adds to favorite*
Yebba is giving me life❤️❤️❤️❤️The vocals are just goosebump worthy😭🙏
This is simply beautiful. Thankful for your gift and you choosing to bless us all with it! My heart goes out to you and this amazing tribute for your mom. 💕
I need an album. This song is heartbreaking, beautiful, haunting, straight fire, etc. etc.
You are such a skilled and beautiful singer. I am obsessed.
Yebba... You give me all my LIFE!! I appreciate you just for breathing. Your tone.. Your riffs (good LAWWWD).. Your control... Your EVERYTHING. You're simply masterful with your craft. Many blessings.
Hi Yebba, I knew your dad and mom way back at PT many years ago. You look like both of them and you have a beautiful voice. So happy for you! I bet your dad is so proud.
BABYGIRL YOU HAVE BEEN MY FAVORITE SINCE WE FOLLOWED EACH OTHER IN 2014!!! GOTDAMNIT IM SO PROUD OF YOU! KEEP GOING LOVE! I'm in tears by how much you've grown. My goodness. I love you. You are (and have been since I stumbled upon you several years go) my favorite vocalist.
It’s like you gotta keep playing it over and over it gets better like she taking us on a journey not only through a Forrest but a love story to be told 🙌🏾Yebba
Been a fan for a while now 👏🏼👏🏼 i love you Yebba. You’re a beast and you inspire me as well as so many others. i know that your mother is so proud. Keep it up you legend.
This is one of the lost beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Yebba, thank you for sharing your God-given gift with us
I️ literally screamed when I️ saw this in my subscriptions!!!! YAY😍
Can’t believe I’m juuust now discovering this beautiful song. I first heard it yesterday and now I’ve learned all the runs 😂. #addictedtoYebba. But....I’m kinda upset now...I need more songs Like this from heeeer. The the blend of the tight harmony, the heavenly runs, and the majesticness and perfection of her voice...is just ....wow...I have no words...I...just...want...mooooorrreeee
PLEASE do more like this !!! I haven't heard anything like your voice in a long time and it is WONDERFUL !!
🌲🌲🌲 Best thing I have heard in a long time. Love the vocal and the Vibes
I am mesmerized by her amazing voice! Can't wait for her first album. I will be the first in line. This middle-aged, old school jam loving lady can't give enough of her vocals~
Love it Yebba!So happy for the big things that are happening in your career!I knew that you are extraordinarily amazing the first time I heard you!Love from New York!
I'm in serious love with this song... Yebba is incredible... Vocals and Tone are A-1, Perfect Pitch
This is hypnotic when you playing with notes. Very often artist which are good performers are bad in studio but you, are good in both.
I am not sure what it is about Yebba's voice, but this song and My Mind have me in tears every single time.
Not long enough😭😭😭 I need continuous BOP Yebba! Lol. Obsessed .
Some songs hit you immediately. This is one of those songs. Vocals, instrumental and lyrics were perfect. I fell in love with her after her performance with chance the Rapper on snl. She helped bring great energy to same drugs and finish line.
Bump the world....I need you and your gift in my life! This just a glimpse of your powers, Goddess.🤩
My ears have been blessed!
This was my top song on Spotify for 2018. I still listen to this on a daily basis❤️ Yebba, you moved me in a way I didn’t think possible🙌🏼
I absolutely love this and you!! I have listened to literally all your music on repeat. Your voice is so smooth and beautiful. I wish you had more recognition 😁😁
I love how she made it sound like it was a duet at the end
i’ve never felt artistic inspiration and awe quite like i do with you, yebba. thank you for giving me the motivation to continue to create through the pits of depression. my sincerest condolences to you; i’m sending the warmest and most peaceful of vibes your way.
much love to you and excitement for what you decide to grace my ears with next,
- MC 🖤
I'm so glad I found this today! Gonna play it today at our barber-shop multiple times and when someone asks me who's the artist, I will look them surprised and tell them it's the best, Yebba :)
This is INCREDIBLE! I haven't stopped listening since it came out!!!!!
Voice is SICKENING! Yebba, I cannot wait for an album!
Insane listening to this song now. I had the pleasure to be in the same room with Yebba a year or two back in a nail place down in Nashville. I decided to check her music out and fell in love. My father passed away recently and this song makes me feel very close to him in a way. She is such a talented soul.
Who’s listening during the 2020 pandemic!? It took the whole world shutting down for me to discover this beautiful soul. Not even mad
The amount of times I put this on replay was endless. Put this on through Apple Music and listened to it like one long song for an hour Lololol *STARTS CHANT “WE WANT MORE! WE WANT MORE!” Lol
omg omg omg...I have listened to this song all day (I discovered it this morning)....your voice is so incredible
Am absolutely obsessed with your voice and sound and music. It’s all so beautiful in every way
This song is everything. Your voice is everything! So talented ❤️
This woman has an amazing voice and is very humble about it. Love her!!!
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH ABBEY. Im damn sure she will too!! Been obsessed over this song for days now!!!♥️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️♥️
I love you so much YEBBA! Can't wait till you tour, I am SO there. Sending love from SF, CA!
Yebba you’re AMAZING. I love your soulful. soothing voice and meaningful lyrics. I’m your new fan. ♥️
My Spotify has only known this song since it was released.
Mine has too! I Sweatergawd!
Whew!!!!!! She a bad bad girl!!! DAMN this kinda grown folk music wr need!! OMG!!!
I love this track, so full of soul and sung from the heart! Heard it the other evening on Radio 1 so tracked it down. Never too old to listen to something new!!
The UA-cam algorithm took me to PJ Morton's "Gumbo", and I was floored by your beautiful singing and your humble presence on "How Deep is Your Love?". Then I heard "My Mind" and marveled at not only your voice, but your ability to convey emotion. If you get a little bit more money from Apple next time around, it's because I'll have "Evergreen" on repeat on Apple Music. As long as it makes you happy and whole, please continue singing. Thank you for what you've done so far. Enjoy your accomplishments. And I hope that if it hasn't happened already, that the pain over losing your Mom subsides, and that the great love that obviously exists between you is what's at the forefront of your mind.
Love this jam! Just downloaded it off itunes and now on repeat! Need more laxed music like dis!!👏🏽👍🏽
Just the beginning, can’t wait to hear more! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Favorite song right now. Been on repeat for about a week already!
R n b, gospel, soul at its best :) Love the music, love the person... god bless you Yebba!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG I AM SO HAPPY RN. Every day you put out a new song Abbey, will be a personal holiday of mine. THANK YOU.

So beautifully composed....In love.

Why haven't I ever heard of this amazing woman before???? This is 🔥
I just fell in love with you. Less than 30 minutes ago. Trying to binge on you, but there's not enough to see or hear, so I'll just keep whatever's here on repeat. I'm so sorry that you lost your mother in the flesh, but I hear her in your every fluttering vocal inflection. I hope (desperately) that you find your voice again through the darkness of your mourning to find light in your morning. You have touched my heart. Thank you, Yebba.
