“In love with you” Erykah Badu – Stephen Marley

“In love with you” is the result of an acoustic and bass guitar, a queen of soul and reggae royalty. Ms Badu and Stephen Marley combine to give us music in best form: live, heartfelt and effortless.

What I love about this song, is that it doesn’t sound rehearsed. You get the feeling that the two artists are at “band practice” just having a jam session that is slowly turning into something special.

The melody on the guitar and the bass stay pretty constant but the artists give us a real exhibition of their vocal skills. Ms Badu shows us her full range and delivers in hear usual smooth tones, while Mr Marley keeps his message raw and unpolished. This contrast makes for a very unique sound and makes me hope they collaborate again.

The chemistry between these two is definitely real.  You can almost “hear” them smiling at each other during the performance….

I’m definitely in love with this song.
