After listening to this, now I can move forward in my life after being used, lied on, lied to, and verbal abused as a child and an as a young adult man. Thank You Lalah for this song for inspiration and healing my mind, body, and soul.
What an on time song for me. After 25 years of life's obstacles and toxic relationships I still never gave up on black men. Reminds me of the feeling I feel when he calls and texts....he makes time for me not call when he can. Finally he found me but it was only after I discovered my self worth and beauty. #lessons
I'm so glad you didn't give up on us because there is nothing like black love . The struggles that we go through in life if we can find the way to come together makes it well worth it.
Felecia Eddins I think I’m having the same experience I just have to keep waiting until god says so but the wait is so hard praying I get through this!!
@@lacscybolesplayerthebeast8806 you will and blessings are always in the waiting process. It builds something wonderful in you. Beautiful things take time. Be encouraged
Tears and Joy, at the same dam time... Letting Go is hard, Moving On is Fearful , Starting Over is Scary...A bad breakup can fill you with all types of emotions. This song is healing my soul. I gotta move on, " THAT WAS THEN, THIS IS NOW'
Finally! Ms Lalah received her just due at the Grammy Awards 2017! Best R & B Album (Lalah Hathaway Live) and Best Traditional R & B Performance (Angel).
I've been listing to Lalah Hathaway since her first album release in 1990.she truly is blessed with a voice from heaven. Her music is superior and takes you to a differnt place
"It was like a lifetime passed right through my fingers (through my fingers . . . umm) So long ago so much that I didnt know (so much that I didnt know) Kind of like a light shined down and showed me how How to move on that was then and this is now " AMEN
Thanks to your mom. I have done the same to my daughter. She is into old school and feels sorry for her 3 year old son and how she won't be able to relate to his songs.
BEAUTIFUL......... Ms. Hathaway........🙏🌹 This song is a message for someone, by someone. Words are loud and clear. So much you truly didn't know back then, but now growing in Christ, confidence and self-love. now you know. and that's amazing. 2-20-24.
Crazy how true this song is. When my ex and I broke up and I felt my whole world was crashing down. Now I've moved on and SOOOO much happier. Its only been a few months but it seems like a lifetime ago.
This song is REAL relevant in my life right now. So very much that I didn't know. Trusting God for patience and direction. Haven't given up, eyes forward and toward the prize!
I could listen to this angel sing and cry all my troubles out. This song is good for all of us, from the inside out. Keep listening until you believe ...
Her voice carries peace with it a calm one gives who is in a position to make things better in ur life or at least make u feel like it gonna b ok just breath and let time take its course to ur betterment Gotten me through a time or 2 love her.

PuRe QuaLity Lalah Hathaway, this cuT just touches the parts, rewind and hit the Charts 👠 🎤🎶🎵🎧🔉🔊👍💽📈 YoU done it then and can sure do it Now!! Wow!! Your a GeM, Meaningful Voice 10/10 knuff respect Craig Seymour for uPLoading DisC one's not to mis$.
At every stage of life I come back to this song... it's part of my life's theme music. ❤ still so thankful for all it's helped bring me through ... my inner gps.
Just seen her in concert at the Queen City Jazz Festival in Charlotte last week. She is just beautiful, soulful and soultry. I been a fan of her since day one. The 70 people that voted thumbs down must have a hearing problem
Crazy that she was too young to really get to know her Daddy before he passed, but still carries on with his legacy...so beautiful inside and out...MUCH LOVE MS. HATHAWAY!!! ❤❤❤
Lalah!!!! This lady’s pic should be placed in every thesaurus & dictionary under the word underrated. One of my favorite singers of all time. Looking just like her Daddy with that hat on. 😁
I first heard this song about three years ago on a quiet storm segment on the radio . I loved it instantly but would not hear it again until now. I didn't get the name of it so had some difficulty in tracking it down even though i knew it was the unmistakable voice of Lalah Hathaway. Finally I've found it and its just an absolute beautiful piece of music. I feel the same way i did that first night on hearing it .
Yes that was my song 6 years ago. I loved ❤this man so much I had to pray him out of my life. Guess what?? God gave him back to me, truly really to love me. At our wedding he was the one who cried , he was so excited.
This great tune brings me back to a time when i was caught in a woman's rapture. I been on this earth for a while so i thought i knew a thang or two about a thang or two. Family let me tell you i got played and schooled and her listens was hard.... Any man who tells you he's never been played is lying. We all been there. Stevie Wonder sung about her [ Rocket love ] Rick James wrote about her [ Super freak] and my man Prince had a blissful moment [ Darlin Nikki ] but that was then this is now....
Love's rapture....it's so bittersweet. One thing is for certain: if you haven't heard the different beats that your heart makes, then you have never felt true love. Unfortunately, if your heart is genuine and the one whom you desire isn't the same, that rapture will surely carry you away. 😉
After 30yrs the love of my life came back into my life for a moment last year and omg for those few days we reminsice bout the pass I will love him forever and this song described our relationship I love this song thank you lalah!
Come through LaLa, This is the kind of music you can slow dance with your man with at home in the living while sipping on something :) It was like a life time passed right through my fingers...
She is so unappreciated for her gift.
Oh yesss
I tell people that all the time! She's amazing and doesn't get the recognition she deserves!
Shirlene Ogburn Real talk ! And she seems to be such a down to earth person as well. She definitely deserve sooo much more👍
Thts alrite, as long as God & Jesus acknowledges it, thts all tht matters
Tawasha Walker Amen, Amen That's the BIG PICTURE !
Her spirit is thick, deep, and kind. May the Lord protect her from evil men and women.
Amen
This is the most beautiful prayer for a woman I've ever read or heard!!! May God bless you and your whole family for blessing her!
Amen God Bless you for saying this that shows what type of spirit you have within you... Godly!
❤️
Ahead of her time..just like dad...
Another living legend that doesn't get her props.
Clystie Ford remember better artist will always be underrated.
Word!
She might not get her pros but, she is truly blessed and highly, highly favored
Clystie Ford We over like who’s Beyoncé?
Vera Lawhorn Ee Message from God.
After listening to this, now I can move forward in my life after being used, lied on, lied to, and verbal abused as a child and an as a young adult man. Thank You Lalah for this song for inspiration and healing my mind, body, and soul.

Yes that was my song 6 years ago. I loved ❤this man so much I had to pray him out of my life. Guess what?? God gave him back to me, truly really to love me. At our wedding he was the one who cried , he was so excited.
This great tune brings me back to a time when i was caught in a woman's rapture. I been on this earth for a while so i thought i knew a thang or two about a thang or two. Family let me tell you i got played and schooled and her listens was hard.... Any man who tells you he's never been played is lying. We all been there.

+Abraham Jackson Glad you made a comeback.

Love's rapture....it's so bittersweet. One thing is for certain: if you haven't heard the different beats that your heart makes, then you have never felt true love. Unfortunately, if your heart is genuine and the one whom you desire isn't the same, that rapture will surely carry you away. 😉
