The talent that comes out of Texas blows my mind!! I love this and I wish I had heard it sooner. Peace and love to all the singers and musicians who make life sweet.
Brilliant. The documentrary was summed up by this video of 4 minutes and 46 seconds. Always been a Doyle fan from the second I heard Arc Angels - A bigger fan every day with every new song I hear. Late to the game, but still pretend to play it..
Erykah and Doyle are a great team. Would love to see them in concert together. I've played Oh Death a hundred times. I'm spending the weekend listening to Doyle's music and spending money on iTunes. He's truly amazing.
Hey all. This absolute ass-kicking song is on the album Dance4Life 2009. Available on iTunes. Searching to see if it can be purchased on CD cuz I am not a fan of mp3s.
Awesome Doyle just plays to every type of music. No one plays like him it’s what makes him great just like every other musician no matter who have your style
do you have this song in better quallity? I really like it ,Im a big fan of Doyle and Erykah I want to download the full soundrack of the movie but I cant find it anywhere. Please contact me.
She was bald at one piont of time but shes not bald anymore I think her hair grew back because she had braids not to long ago and you have to have hair to get braids.!
I love, love, love this! I watched the "Before the Music Dies" documentary and am so glad I did - I would not have known about these tremendous artists and what they are doing these days. I have now shared this on my Facebook page to find more fans!
DBii is one of my all time favorites. As a Songwriter and working musician, I was in a complete rut and was thinking of packing it in. The loss of Prince was devastating for me. This cat, without him knowing, pulled me up by my bootstraps and inspired hope in music again for me.
The album is Dance4Life 2009. This is the only song Doyle is on with it, however. Cannot get it on Amazon for some reason, but iTunes has it. May be able to order it from a record store if you don't like mp3s. Personally, I hate mp3s
Doyle gets such a fat tone :), especially with the wah around the 3:30 minute mark. . At 2:44 it looks like Doyle needs a few more guitar pedals... the female guitarist must have pedal envy sitting there next to him...
Rhythm guitarist Melvoin has an incredible resume.She's played with the greats.
That guitar. Love Doyle with Erykah and Questlove.
And Erykah Badu equally as such impeccable!
Doyle, I’m glad you’re alive to know you and your music are loved. Thank you for making life better.
"What You Live For "
Verse 1: Doyle Bramhall II & Erykah Badu]
All around the world been round and round
I know you been searching but you never found
Following the sun, no direction home
Keep on searching baby cause it won't be long
[Bridge: Funksway]
I feel...that you are
No ordinary Love
I feel...I found
The one to carry me on
[Chorus: Doyle Bramhall II (Erykah Badu)]
What you live for (I don't want)
What you die for (is my music baby)
Knowing this (knowing this)
Let me thank you on my knees (thank you baby cause)
What you live for (the day and night)
What you die for (the night and day)
Knowing this (all I want)
Promise to believe my soul (promise to believe)
What you live for (What you live for)
What you die for (I could die today)
Knowing this (Believe me baby)
Believe in you baby(I said baby baby)
What you live for (Live for)
What you die for (let the music play)
Knowing this (knowing this)
Living for you baby
[Verse 2: Doyle Bramhall II & Erykah Badu]
I can finally hear my angel sing
I can't help it baby when you do your thing
You took me to your water and you made me clean
I can't help it when the spirit moves through me
[Bridge: Funksway]
[Chorus w/variations]
[Hook: Erykah Badu]
Keep on searching
Keep on searching
Keep on searching baby cause it won't be long
Keep on searching
Keep on searching
Keep on searching baby cause it won't be long
[Chorus w/variations]

Top song and then at 3.17 Doyles guitar kicks in and it goes to a whole new level.
What a combination of musicians. Great production, songwriting and killer groove.
i am now a fan
Sounds amazing! Great collaboration
A beautiful mind. :)
Rock radio music radio has potatoes in its ears Doyle bramhall II! Is unbelievable!
Love this song!! XD so funky
Doyle's (ex?) wife is Susannah Melvoin. Wendy's sister.
Does this track exist on an album anywhere? I can't find it. If anyone can direct me, I would really appreciate it.
The album is Dance4Life 2009. This is the only song Doyle is on with it, however. Cannot get it on Amazon for some reason, but iTunes has it. May be able to order it from a record store if you don't like mp3s. Personally, I hate mp3s
Chris Cassady Read the post directly above yours! holy crap
I did read it! Holy crap! Different version - have a great day. Thanks for your help, but I think you mean to respond to the other guy.
Chris Cassady doh! My apologies, Chris. I am old and need to learn to UA-cam :(
I wrote to Doyles peeps and posted the answer on genius.com genius.com/Funksway-what-you-live-for-lyrics
yaman!
Super
Blues & Soul mix Awesome!
no idea how that dude can play that guitar backwards er upside down
Who is the white girl on guitar?And it's not a bass she's playing.It's a strat.
that's Wendy Melvoin.
Doyle gets such a fat tone :), especially with the wah around the 3:30 minute mark.
.
At 2:44 it looks like Doyle needs a few more guitar pedals... the female guitarist must have pedal envy sitting there next to him...
If you're talking about Wendy Melvoin, whose guitar you're hearing on Purple Rain, I think she's probably doing just fine.
0:20at 0.38 like "familly stone "spirit
I like it ! 😊
Anyone know where I can find this song on Amazon Music?
Everyone have parent's. I have also music parents - E.Badu - my mother / Jimi Hendrix my father.
