Whose here in 2021?? I sent this song to a special someone to give him a glimpse of what my heart feels about him. Praying things evolve beautifully between us 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Here in 2022 I pray that you and the man u are speaking of have both been beautiful surprises for each other for the past year and evermore. Blessings to you and yours ❣️
I never in my wildest dreams did I think at 55.i would b this happy.. What a great feeling .know that age is only a number... This man is truly an beautiful surprise...🤗🤗
I always felt she was one of most underated artists. I have not had an India Arie song not leave me feeling beautiful, loved, sexy or all three. She's simply amazing and provides a soundtrack for my life. One I can play in front of anyone and be proud!
I remember being single and listening to this song thinking about my future children with my future husband..12 years married now and baby girl about to turn 10 on Monday and my son turning 11 in July...God is so great!! Though the vision tarry wait upon it..it will not lie
"Its like yesterday, I didn't even know your name. Now today, you're always on my mind..." DEEP! One day, my ((beautiful surprise)) will find me. Powerful!
"It's like...." gets me everytime! I can't play this while driving and get past that without starting it again 5 times......it's just the simplistic sentiment we all feel!
It's like yesterday I didn't even know your name now today you're always on my mind I never could have predicted that I feel this way you are a beautiful surprise!! Whatever it is it came to teach me I am here to learn it cuz I believe that we are Written in the Stars
3 or 4 weeks ago. We finally expressed our true feelings for each and what a BEAUTIFUL SURPRISE it has been!!!!! I'm still in shock at how our friendship has changed. Never in a million years would I have ever thought me and him would be connected like this. We have decided to take things REALLY slow to make sure this is the right thing to do. I'm really scared but I'm going to go with the flow! Keep us in your prayers! Thanks India for the lyrics! BEAUTIFUL!!!!
I'm reading comments from this song and I share all of the sentiments. Your comments blessed me and I'm really curious as to how things turned out for you.
She's so underrated 🥲 this song is everythaaang...even after all these years its still 🔥 if you can find someone to dedicate this song to then you are truly blessed. Love is the most powerful force in the Universe 💘 😻 💜 💛 💚 🧡
She is a very powerful and soulful artist of true content. I find so much in our lyrics and the peacefulness it sends. Complete brilliance and yet this sista does not get the proper recognition due her but we as a community can stand behind her!
Can't believe I finally found someone to sing this song to and even better that he feels the same way towards me...it's a beautiful thing when the feeling is mutual
I walked down the aisle to this song. Eight years later, it still explains the affect this man's love has on me. Still thankful for the man that he is; he is the man I asked for in my prayers!
I dedicate this to my beautiful surprise growing inside of me everyday. I feel so blessed, priveleged and honored for the future and being able to raise a little man to the glory of God. MWAH! Excited to meet you.
I was madly in love with someone that told me that whenever I hear this song...to think of him...not knowing that months later we would never hear this song together again. R.I.P John..I love you FOREVER and ALWAYS. Until we meet again.
Bria Berry 15 years ago I fell in love with this song while pregnant with my son as well. I would literally cry every time I played it. Now my son is almost 16 and I still cry. It has always been a love song to him!
This song makes me think of so many things...and a great guy that showed me some great things but however, it did not work out. I still hope he's in a great place. He was such a breath of fresh air. OOOOhhhh...memories!
she is just amazing and her lyrics really come form the heart. they are so simple words but man the effect is breath-taking. love the passion she has in all her songs
This is the song of the moment for me. I actually found this song the day that I fell in love with my sweetheart and all of the lyrics make me cry every time I hear them because I relate them all to my boo. This song encapsulate the way I feel about my babe.
"Whatever it is that you came to teach me, I am here to learn it cause; I believe that we are written in the stars. And I don't know what the future holds, but I'm living in the moment; and I'm thankful for the man that you are, you are, you are."
hey, have you guys noticed that the comments for indias videos are always positive? compared to some of the other artists? its just so much of a better vibe on the comments for her songs rather than some other artists. i think thats very telling of how talented she is, she just makes everyone around her happy. love u, india :)
My beautiful surprise popped back into my life 10 years later. I always wondered how he was doing, and if I'd ever see him again. God so fit to bring him back into my life. Cargle you are truly my beautiful surprise. I dedicate this beautiful song to you.
The second year I joined the marketing dept. at WP resort and I saw the summer JazzFest. I begged and pleaded until we got you the next year. Even though I never really got to meet you, I tried to make sure your stay was enjoyable as possible. I was the guy that gave you the flowers during the show. Wish I could have gave you more,.. Thanks for the performance, you were awesome. Go Broncos!
While pregnant with my son I would sing this song everyday. After he was born he would give me the most beautiful smile whenever he would hear it. At 4 months he ended up very ill & in the hospital & at 7 months had a heart attack. This song would always brighten his beautiful spirit. At 16 months was when my beautiful surprise went home with the lord. He is now my beautiful angel & I still, to this day, sing him this song when I need to be close to him. love & miss him everyday. R.I.H Sal
This was the song that I sang to my boyfriend 13 years ago when we officially started our relationship...he still remains to be a "Beautiful Surprise" to me in my world.
This song is marvelous to the ears that directs it to the mind and the heart, then it drifts on to the soul and goes deep into your inner spirit. A beautiful surprise that's makes the blood warm. Puts a smile on your face. Thanks India!
I listen to this song faithfully! I am so proud of India. No matter what she do, it's rivitingly great! The words to this song will NOT affect you if you have NOT been through a situation of great simularity. I am thoroughly appreciative of this. The song it self is a beautiful surprise.
such a beautiful song...when I look back over the circumstances of meeting the wonderful man in my life, I can only say it was God deciding that it's time for me to finally be happy again. "Whatever it is that you came to teach me, I am here to learn it." -xoxo Phuc-
I love this song because India's music teaches the heart, soul, mind, body and the spirit. Her messages teaches you to love, forgive, respect, have fun, dream, have desires, communicate and just be in love and be blessed with what you have. It makes you take a look at yourself and be satified knowing that you need to love yourself first before you can love some else. Her music says, goodnight and sleep peacefully, I love you. Blessings to all the readers and India.Arie!!!!!!
Oh My God! Where the hell have I been. My friend sent me a cd today and this the first time I have even heard of this Goddess. What talent, what lyrics, what feeling. I am a fan! Applause for exellance!
I shed a few tears when she sang this at a concert. It's so beautiful, even then when I had no one to sing it to. Now I feel like I've finally found my Beautiful Suprise.
Awwwwww thanks Dahling for adding this.....They only had the covers on UA-cam....I met an Amazing man who makes me feel THIS WAY & 🎤 I don't know what the FUTURE HOLDS but I'm LIVING in the MOMENT.🎤 #iAMaSUCKAforROMANCE
A black male shared this beautiful song with us. Don't tell me we hate y'all or want to demean y'all or call y'all derogatory terms... We love y'all forever.
Everytime I hear this song i think of my son.. He is my beautiful surprise.. This song makes me feel better when I'm down as does my son!!!! I always replay it 50 times LOL
Wow this song is hard to hear reminds me of my first true love. I don't think I will ever love like that or at all again. Love is beautiful when you appreciate it.
Whose here in 2021?? I sent this song to a special someone to give him a glimpse of what my heart feels about him. Praying things evolve beautifully between us 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
