BenZel is Umi Takahashi (15) and Yoko Watanabe (16). Originally from Osaka; Umi and Yoko both travelled to New York through their local foreign exchange program. They met in early 2012 through an online message board about ankle socks and quickly discovered they each had a profound appreciation for 90's R&B and J. Dilla. After many failed attempts to create a hypoallergenic ankle sock, they decided to put their efforts toward other creative ventures. Following hours of soul searching; they decided to start BenZel...they've been working on it since yesterday.

This is a remake of If You Love Me by Brownstone from the 90's, awesome!
This is R&B/Soul music, not this mainstream crap nowadays! She is the best!
The beat, lyrics and Jessie's voice is just so exquisite. This song needs to be on the radio.
It's 4am ,and this is totally my jam for an insomniac freak like me. So soothing and beautifully dark. A MUST listen by BenZel & Jessie Ware.
I love this rendition!! She really made this song her own
I like this
Wicked version of a classic Brownstone track ! You can tell Jessie is old at heart. Long Live 90's
Wish this was on iTunes to purchase

So Beautiful
Mr. Nimoy sent me
and it was worth it.
I love the backgrounds in this!
YESS!
Loved the original of this track and is on my 'most played' list on my iPod. So one could say I am quite protective of this number! BUT, have to say Jessie Ware has done it justice in a lovely cover.
Surely the credit is in the fact that they covered it! Great track.
Annie Mac put me on to this jam and then i rediscovered my love for Brownstone and 90's diva r&b...get familiar kids!
Best of the best FOREVA!
Jessie Ware brought me here. No one else.
Great photography, what cool effects to match the track
Love this version wish I could actually buy it

Agreed!
This was my jam back in the day and I am so glad that she covered it!
can this please be on Spotify pretty please
It used to be 🥲
I literally check every few months since i first heard it in 2014 to see if it is.
I can't believe these are the voices of a 15 and 16 year old... crazy
Remix I love it🖤🖤
I can't believe these kids are that these kids are 15 and 16...Anyway, this is sheer genius. Love it.
how can I get this song on spotify?
It WAS on Spotify, had it even on my playlist....but not anymore:( it should be back! PLEASE, @BenZEL !
yeah wtf why is this song no longer available anywhere
I came here because it was snatched away 😭😭😭
I don't wanna rain on this parade
But I'm starting to question the love that was made
I'm not looking for just an affair
I want a love that is based on truth, not just dare
You will not hurt my pride
If right now you decide
That you are not ready to settle down
But if you want my heart
Then it's time that you start
To act like you're mine, in the light and the dark
If you love me, say it
If you trust me, do it
If you want me, show it
If you need me, prove it
(x2)
You see now actions speak louder than words
So don't just say things that I've already heard
Don't want your body without your soul
I don't want a love who will come here and go
You will not hurt my pride
If right now you decide
That you are not ready to settle down
But if you want my heart
Then it's time that you start
To act like you're mine, in the light and the dark
If you love me, say it
If you trust me, do it
If you want me, show it
If you need me, prove it
(x2)
Oh I, Oh I, I wanna touch you baby
And spread my love all around you honey
And if you care, you gotta show it baby
True love to share
Say it (x3)
Do it (x3)
Show it (x3)
Prove it (x2)
If you love me, say it
If you trust me, do it
If you want me, show it
If you need me, prove it
Seen the link threw Mike Posner. Awesome video.
god damn, this tops her collabos with SBTRKT. hoping to see more from the BenZel duo!
brownstone one's still pretty OG. production is tight on this. lots of potential
🙌💖🎤🎶
Yes - Most if not all the actual footage is stock footage downloaded from a site like shutterstock (or at least it can be if you wanna save a lot of time in asset creation). The silhouetted woman in the foreground was rotoscoped (traced) from live footage and then used as a mask to load in different footage. This can be done with a few different programs, probably most notable would be Adobe After Effects. Hope that helps.
💖🎤🎶 Benny Blanco and Two Inch Punch 🙌
This song is so fucking good.
You won't find that awesome song anywhere for sale. It it said that Jessie and BenZel do not intend to release it, which is a real bummer, I know.
well i'm a jessie ware stan, so jessie brought me here, "devotion" is by far the best album of 2012.
brownstone
