CouldBeBlue correction, most underrated artist!! But I appreciate artists before they become super mainstream or listened to by the mass majority of ppl. There's something pure x honest ab them. Like how Miguel, x SZA, x Kehlani were before that big single made them a household name.
because when you listen to the whole album in sequence this song is supposed to act as a "commercial" between tracks 2 and 4 as if Frank is flipping through the channels. thats why the song kind of sounds like its playing over static or some old school radio station..its such an amazing snippet though i wish he did the whole song too!!!
When I heard this sample on Frank Ocean's Orange CD, I had to come find this song again. Always has been one of my favorite Fauntleroy songs...... Such an underrated artist.
Goodness, I'm ignorant. Sampled (and sometimes covered) songs throw me for a loop. Unless I totally recognize the song, I'm left thinking that that 2nd-hand artist was the original. Goodness gracious. I love this song even more, post the Frank Ocean exposure.
A legend right here...The beat, the vocals, the lyrics....I can't even compare this guy to anyone. So amazing. EDIT: its 3 years later and this song is still amazing, so uplifting. The beat and lyrics bring you out of depression.
[Verse 1] I got a garden where it never rains I feed the flowers tears, they don't complain Can I get you to cry, baby (baby) If I tell you a lie, baby? (baby) I just need a reaction To keep it alive baby (baby) 'Cause I've got a garden in my heart And I can't survive without some (kind of) [Chorus] Fertilizer I'll take bullshit if that's all you got Without some fertilizer, tears, and sunshine all the growing stops Whatever I just need it from you I just need it from you [Verse 2] Well I heard that the flowers love to hear you sing, baby girl Put your ear to my heart, bet you won't hear anything Can I get you to sing baby? (baby) Give me something in E major? (major) Pretty darling, your silence is driving me crazy Girl I got a garden in the dark, and I can't survive Without some kind of [Chorus] [Bridge] Behold, light from my star I dug a hole, planted my heart It's been told, that hearts can grow I just need [Chorus]
Been following Fauntleroy since 08', early stuff with timbaland was insane, he's such a talent and 2014 he is finally going to get the recognition he deserves. Been writing and singing amazing songs for years, time after time. Watch out for timbo's new album, 2-3 songs at least with JF on, can't wait.
@@drewwhenry7612 yo u willing to make a masterpost of some sort ?? trying to find a download of his stuff and cant find shit...dont want to rip off youtube as the audio quality
Usually when something is sampled, the thing that is sampled will immediately be posted for everyone to hear or see, but the fact that this is older than the album itself or even frank's mixtape is mindblowing to me
If you just found out about him, hey better late than never. He's a great songwriter and I think he would be a dope artist given the right situation. Either way I'm proud of big homie, keep doing your thing King!!!
Both James and Frank are talented! They sound somewhat alike to me! They should do a record together! Plus iRespect Frank for showing respect to great artists! Along with James he has covered Coldplay and MGMT giving both bands props and featuring the originals on his songs! Sexual orientation does not determine your abilities as an artist!

ah i love it i remember hearing frank oceans version and loving it when i was 12 coming back 3 years later and finding out theres a full version and frank version is js a cover !!
The song reminds me of Over The Hedge movie...... I wish this song coukd be one of its soundtrack but it never happens!!!😭😭😭😭😭 The songs 100%reminds me of Family of me by Ben Folds
I like the way I didn't know who "The Weeknd" was until I heard him on Drake album Take Care. "Crew Love" & "The Ride". Now I heard Drake's new song, Girls Love Beyonce, featuring this guy."James Fauntleroy" I think Drake has a good taste in bringing most of the Talent artist up on the spot light. I am really hoping to see this guy more often. I hope he gets the public attention just as much as he got as The Weeknd when Drake brought him out.
the greatest unknown song ever
+SauceBoss127 yup, my favorite song of all time. whenever i'm down i throw this on and bam does the trick
this was definitely a hot take but still ONE of my fav songs

So true... I never paid any attention to the lyrics, but man they are deep, could make me cry
Daddy fuck your car
This version is so pretty, but at the same time I wish Frank did a full cover of this on Orange
ua-cam.com/video/aRD7sUKTvCE/v-deo.html this one has frank ocean on the hook I think

This version is better

James Fauntleroy was one of the co producers of channel orange
I didn't know that.
Yup novacane , swim good and like two more he wrote fully
@@reesedipherent8416even though this comment is 7 months old neither of the songs you mentioned were on channel orange 😭😭
@@sk.2642😂😂😂😂 facts tho
Are y’all talking about, “hey apple”
*Hears frank ocean*
I wish they had a full song of this
*searches*
Oh im an idiot
Exactly what i said when i first heard frank oceans version
SAMMEEEE!!!!!!!! lol
Brooo this is it 😂
I am so mad I’m just now hearing this after years of searching for the full song lol
because when you listen to the whole album in sequence this song is supposed to act as a "commercial" between tracks 2 and 4 as if Frank is flipping through the channels. thats why the song kind of sounds like its playing over static or some old school radio station..its such an amazing snippet though i wish he did the whole song too!!!
yes such is the nature of interludes
this shit has to be one of the most catchiest songs ever recorded. i want this shit to play when i'm walking around doing mundane shit.
truest comment i’ve ever seen
@@bigladman8962 truester comment I’ve ever seen. This song is constantly stuck in my head
Ok, officially ashamed that Frank Ocean got me here. This is brilliant. :)
The same for me ^^
why ashamed brodie
candycoatedreams the metaphor is great
candycoatedreams the metaphor is great
No need to be ashamed, be glad he introduced you to it
This is like a, flowery Thundercat
Those piano chords are so nostalgic for some reason, beautiful song
0:42 this my fav part
Can't figure out if this is a love song or a passive aggressive masterpiece
Yeah n also saying that you can’t grow without the pain and suffering, IE bullshit
Why the hell isn’t this on Spotify
bruh honestly idk this song is ahead of its time frfr
It’s from a rare mixtape I can’t even find it
Yesss, I was searching and couldn't find :(
Technically it is because Frank ocean did a cover of this on channel orange
@@CAYCAYNULLIAN That isn't the reason, you literally just made that up.
Reminds me of "wouldnt it be nice" by the beach boys, love this!
Right!
When I heard this sample on Frank Ocean's Orange CD, I had to come find this song again. Always has been one of my favorite Fauntleroy songs...... Such an underrated artist.
Wasn't a sample, Frank did a cover. Their voices are very similar lol
Goodness, I'm ignorant. Sampled (and sometimes covered) songs throw me for a loop. Unless I totally recognize the song, I'm left thinking that that 2nd-hand artist was the original. Goodness gracious. I love this song even more, post the Frank Ocean exposure.
+Andrew Lindner it is the original
i am absolutely in LOVE with this song and just his angelic voice in general. god freakin bless.
His voice sounds really similar to Frank's... I like this better than the one on Channel Orange actually
A legend right here...The beat, the vocals, the lyrics....I can't even compare this guy to anyone. So amazing.

OMG, Finally.. someone had to say it!!! Idiot is too dope.
You can say that again I still got his music on my old gmail account that I couldn’t retrieve so I had to downloaded it back
@@drewwhenry7612 yo u willing to make a masterpost of some sort ?? trying to find a download of his stuff and cant find shit...dont want to rip off youtube as the audio quality
@@karlbythesea thankfully I'm not the only one. Can't find his version of 'Just Like Me', and 'Sing Like Me' plssss hmu if you ever find a copy
James is one of my favourite songwriters I love his work so much I can almost pin point his work when I hear a track
Wouldn’t be surprised if Pharrell took inspiration from James Fauntleroy for the Despicable Me soundtrack
Onto something. Listen to Fun Fun Fun after this
frank ocean bought me here oml
+Zoe Barker SAME HERE hahaahahaha
*Over the hedge vibes brought me here tho....*
XDDDD FR
why does Frank do a full version of this?? and why isn't this song on Spotify??
I know right! So many gems that should be on spotify
@@BluesGetOrigin An example? I love this song... iI you know another one like this, please write it!!!
dope music here..yeah.why did'nt frank do this entire song..awesome
Why isn't this guy topping the charts?
Feel like I got transported to 1968 when ever I hear this song! 😌

I am so happy this exists as a full song.
Now this song is my fertilizer!
I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS A COVER! Mind. Blown. But I'm excited, because now I get to discover James' backlog of music.

Just so everyone knows, James Fauntleyroy wrote this song, and Frank covered it on Channel Orange....
He is a great writer and I love this song :)
Even though frank ocean got me here, this kid is pretty good I like it
+Dominican3nito this kid has worked with and written songs for Beyoncé, Justin Timberlake, Rihanna, Kendrick Lamar etc. lol
yeah this "kid" is more accomplished than most musicians
he's 31
Dominican3nito he wrote .most of the good hits you heard 😂😂😂
>james fauntleroy
>kid
bro please
This is everything I needed Frank's version to be also am I the only person who didn't know James Fauntleroy could sing SING?
I can't stop listening to this song. He deserves to be huge.
I loved this part of Channel Orange. Glad there is a full song for it.
I hate how it takes people like this so long to get popular. so much talent
This reminds me of something, Brian Wilson from The Beach Boys would write.
this song is absolutely undeniably beautiful
this song just makes me feel joyful
Does anyone know what album or mixtape this comes from?
Can I get a link to the full thing somewhere I can DL it? PLEASE HELP
Kandice McBane look up cocaine 80s on datpiff.com
Use UA-cam to MP3
I always wanted this to be a full song on Channel Orange and come to find out its this song. Th. Well. Glad I finally found it. Love it.
ah i love it i remember hearing frank oceans version and loving it when i was 12 coming back 3 years later and finding out theres a full version and frank version is js a cover !!
Wish this was on Spotify
New favourite song
Its amazing that this song never blew up
his voice is amazing
This song is dope af! Would’ve loved hearing Frank Ocean do a full cover of the song
he's such a beast i loved his work with justin :) now ppl are realizing his talented
thank you frank for letting me discover this artist
still listening in 2021....
he brought me here too...amazing joint for sure-
I hate when people say "oh, I been listening to him". The time you became a fan shouldn't matter as long as you really appreciate the music.
I gotta check this dude out. How Much a Dollar Cost and Fertilizer are my two favorite songs off of TPAB and Channel Orange respectively.
This is an under-rated masterpiece.
"Because I've always got my....Family.....of me...🎶🎶🎵🎵"
*~Ben Folds~*
Ive always loved James Fauntleroy !!
thing is,his voice has been around for awhile...I kept hearing it in Frank Oceans music but didnt know the name.Glad I finally do!
The song reminds me of Over The Hedge movie......
I wish this song coukd be one of its soundtrack but it never happens!!!😭😭😭😭😭
The songs 100%reminds me of Family of me by Ben Folds

Probably one my favorite songs ever
Salute To One of The Dopest Songwriters in The Game!
OMG so good
James Fauntleroy II is not officially credited on the song, but he does sing the intro.
love this song cant stop listening to it, i love frank's version but with this I got more to listen to and james can sing amazingly too just great ♥
Excellent song.
Hes so good!
I love to sing along with this
frank brought me here too you guys Lol. i really like this song.
this song getsbme so happy
Pleasantly Stellar.
I love that this is a full song! :)
Had to check this guy out after those soothing vocals on Girls Love Beyonce
They are friends, thats they main reason he's acknowledged.
Beautiful Voice
This is not on Spotify :'((((
the fact that literal bull shit can be used as fertilzer, that line is so witty
This man should be more famous.
He does not cover the whole song, he covers the chorus and it is meant to act almost as a commercial hence why the album is called channel orange.
I love this song 💗
dude this is awesome.
