Here I Am - Chevelle

[@locksleygreaves8938]

Still love the fact that we shot this video on a low budget in three days in Jamaica in 1990, then I edited it in my house on VHS; then did the special effects in a per hour studio in Manhattan. The video was nominated for a Jammy that year. Wow!!! Song catapulted to No 1 on Jamaican charts. Nice to look back 26 years+ at what you can do with a well written and composed song (Rohan), final mix by Living Room Studio NY and a talented singer. Simply timeless.......

[@Champe11e]

Locksley Greaves indeed. we need more of these

[@tammy5240]

Love it no expiration on great work. You should be proud awesome in everyway

[@headleyfrater8288]

[@lenniecoombs5362]

N she was soooo young as well

[@Saysonow]

She'd have put her talent to better use doing this type of music.

[@Roq-stone]

One of the Jamaican anthems. Your name lives on through us from the era.

[@nakiabrown994]

One of the best ballads ever sung by a Jamaican artist. I love this record!! Shout out to Chevelle 👑❤❤

[@laingmarie77]

She was destined for greatness. Today she is walking in her divine destiny.

[@oralmalcolmm1097]

[@ricardobarker6358]

Underrated song! Big tune! I use to hear the song as a boy growing up & thought it was done by a foreigner!

[@iamglendonbarnes7601]

[@gigibibi6832]

Arguably the best female voice out of Jamaica. Love her

[@tammy5240]

One of my favourite songs ever. I miss this quality of music sang straight from the heart with real feelings. Just dont listen to it when going through a breakup😂

[@DJJonG386]

That's what I'm doing now my girlfriend broke up with me 💔 and I'm hurt 😢

[@kham__mokha7045]

Just heard this classic and had to come here to listen again. No idea it was Chevelle Franklyn, May 21, 2023. One of my favourite love songs from the early 90s. My friend and I were talking yday and he said that's why the first 3-4 yrs of age of a child's life is so important, it really shapes you and hearing these types of music when i was prolly as young as that, really cemented my love for these truely authentic music.

[@THEWHOLETRUTH58]

Nov. 5, 2024Here I am at age 39 listening a song that melted my heart at about age 10-12. Used to ring out this song while washing dishes on an outside stand belting out 'if all of you ever knew what I am going through" I connected with this song at that tender age and met Chevelle about 11 years after. This song has soul.

[@clarenceburrows2481]

I listen to this song every day over and over It have some of the greatest words well put together and such a young age she did great. I love this song from the first time I heard it and I am 53 years

[@LifeAccordingToZoe876]

Just the intro of this song, it gets me every single time. So amazing to believe that a ballad as great as this one came from my little island

[@claudettehall1077]

Coming from Jamaica 🇯🇲 now turn Christian still have a voice of an angel growing up this was my favourite song even thou I was young didn’t understand what she was singing about but fall in love with this song from 12 it’s still my favorite

[@coreaccount4376]

When you are young the feelings of love are overwhelming. My girlfriend of many years was away for a few months to train for a job. I was in final year at University. I visited her at her training school, and I was dumped in the parking lot, with the engagement ring in my glovebox. There was another guy. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if I proposed a few minutes earlier. I believe it would have only made things more difficult and embarrassing, but the result would have been the same. I was hurt very badly. I don't feel hurt anymore, but I did for too many years. WHAT I LEARNED: Now that I'm older, and can put things into perspective, I can say ACTIONS MATTER. Step 1: Look at the ACTIONS of people, and single out the ones who do ACTIONS that benefit you, that demonstrate care and consideration. Step 2: Check to see how the person ACTS towards other people, especially enemies, and ppl the person is angry with. You will get this treatment some bad day. Step 3: When you find a person who passes this test, teach yourself to love him or her.

Came out when i was 12...and i loved it...so emotional...teens love that stuff. Even though i could not actually relate to it fully...it still seemed so enotionally charged which i guess teen girls gravitate to quietly. Glad she turned to the gospel genre though. She is an awesome worship learder
