    This arrangement is from a musical galaxy still yet undiscovered. The level of genius and skill exhibited here from the vocal to the musicality, to the timing and background harmonies are utterly incomprehensible. To say this is mind blowing is a massive understatement.

    Everytime I listen to D'Angelo it's a spiritual experience. The bridge is heavenly.

    This song is a movie, a painting, a poem a movement. When something is a real as this......it's more than physical, more than spiritual, it's a peek into other dimension we can't comprehend the energies at force here

    I still don't think D'Angelo realizes how big of an impact he is, dude is an icon....... and I'm from Virginia lol so we were all excited for him when he first stepped on the scene..... wish another album was on the way.......

      Boy, I live in Europe and D'Angelo was a legend for me ( us) in the 90's already. I love his music, I love his amazing timing.. I don't know if more success would do him a favor, although he deserves it in every way..I mean, I like the life instruments and the realness that he could maintain in his music over the years. A huge label would maybe screw up his sensitive and unique sound, you know what I mean? Just guessing.

    "Betray My Heart" LYRICS
    As the day must have it's sun
    And the night must have it's moon
    Sure as both must rise and fall
    I'll be there to see you through
    Just as long as there is time
    I will never leave your side
    And if ever that you feel
    That my love is not sincere
    [Chorus:]
    I will never betray my heart
    I will never betray my heart
    I will never betray my heart
    Like the breeze that blows in June
    I will steady keep you cool
    This I swear with all that's true
    I'll take nothing in place of you
    When you're feeling down, down, down
    You, my soul, can depend on me
    You don't ever have to fear
    That my love is not sincere
    [Chorus:]
    I will never betray my heart
    I will never betray my heart
    I will never betray my heart
    [Bridge:]
    Through the storm, through the rain
    I'll come running to ease your pain
    Like the rails that cross the trains
    Like the blood in your veins
    [Chorus:]
    I will never betray my heart
    I will never betray my heart
    I will never betray my heart

    Como el día debe tener su sol
    As the day must have its sun
    Y la noche debe tener su luna
    And the night must have its moon
    Claro que ambos deben subir y bajar
    Sure as both must rise and fall
    Estaré allí para verte
    I'll be there to see you through
    Siempre y cuando haya tiempo
    Just as long as there is time
    Nunca me iré de tu lado
    I will never leave your side
    Y si alguna vez te sientes
    And if ever that you feel
    Que mi amor no es sincero
    That my love is not sincere
    Nunca traicionaré mi corazón
    I will never betray my heart
    Como la brisa que sopla en junio
    Like the breeze that blows in June
    Te mantendré estable
    I will steady keep you cool
    Esto lo juro con todo lo que es verdad
    This I swear with all that's true
    No tomaré nada en tu lugar
    I'll take nothing in place of you
    Cuando te sientes deprimido, deprimido, deprimido
    When you're feeling down, down, down
    Tú, alma mía, puedes depender de mí
    You, my soul, can depend on me
    Nunca tienes que temer
    You don't ever have to fear
    Que mi amor no es sincero
    That my love is not sincere
    Nunca traicionaré mi corazón
    I will never betray my heart
    A través de la tormenta, a través de la lluvia
    Through the storm, through the rain
    Vendré corriendo para aliviar tu dolor
    I'll come running to ease your pain
    Como los rieles que cruzan los trenes
    Like the rails that cross the trains
    Como la sangre en tus venas
    Like the blood in your veins
    Nunca traicionaré mi corazón
    I will never betray my heart

      The next time I hear someone say "today's music sucks", I'm going to have an answer. A very positive answer.

    • @CelestineSelene
      @CelestineSelene 10 років тому +5

      Evan Redmon That's an interesting concept because technically, this is not quite today's music in a sense because D'Angelo is an established artist who busted on the scene about 20 years ago so he really wouldn't quite be "today's music". I would like to see music of this caliber come from the actual new artists who are truly architects of "today's music". There is no new artist even close to D'Angelo's musical standard, which is sad actually.

    • @evanredmon3877
      @evanredmon3877 10 років тому +46

      Well the mainstream music industry is certainly not interested in this. The traditions from which D'Angelo emerged are going extinct like a species of fish swimming in a sea of toxic waste. Apprenticeship and creative genius has given way to The Voice and video game musicians. The powers that be like it that way. Makes people easier to control. Why waste all that effort being clever when you can just make millions by regurgitating the same robotic pop slop every year?
      D'Angelo just bought real music back. The man is a hero as far as I am concerned.
      It's far too complex and introspective, and the lyrical themes are too controversial and nuanced, for most people. The industry's favorite puppets - white teenage girls - wouldn't even begin to comprehend what this is (the vast majority anyway - imagine a 17 year old Snooki clone, adrift in the emptiness of One Direction and Taylor Swift, and this hits her? Please.) Yes, it's based in the R&B traditions going way back, but this is a explosive layer cake of creative genre bending. Heck I'm 45, and a musician, and I'm just coming to terms with I have heard.
      I hear as much Parliament as I do Prince here, but then Spanish guitar drops? Why the heck not. And accessible pop sensibilities? Just because he can. And Marvin Gaye, and Hendrix, and bebop, and acid jazz, and progressive rock...give me a few days and I'm sure more will be revealed. I mean, just listen to "Prayer". Do you hear those subtle off-time signatures? I don't even know what to call that.
      Plus there's a very intentional, spiritually-based response to the cesspool of gratuitous occult shock pop out there. It's also a firm, confident bitch slap across the face of our culture's hypocritical morals and industrialized lies. This EXACTLY what the industry does not want, and EXACTLY what we all need.
      It's new alright.

    This is reminiscent of 70's soul music. You can even visualize the bell bottom slacks and afro hair style. Hopefully its a trend back to good music by real talented musicians.
