John Splithoff - Raye (Official Lyric Video)

[@UltimateAwe]

This is REAL music...blue-eyed soul at its finest.

[@bnyfrnndz09]

My thoughts exactly! Check out Allen Stone for more blue-eyed soul:)

this is a gender? i am CRAZY for this song... i NEED more like this...

[@dalegarnett7398]

Omg I can't get enough of this song. It's beautiful.

[@RubyDoobieRed]

I've loved this song for a few years from when I first heard it. My husband died seven months ago today. His name was Ray. Some of the lyrics so remind me of him. I miss him dearly 😢

[@lynnchiodo.1233]

A sweet tribute song, maybe. Remember best of times❤

[@RubyDoobieRed]

Absolutely ❤

[@johnheine238]

First time I ever heard this song was John playing it live on tour with Chris Botti. Unforgettable

[@chrisshelf8454]

He sang the hell out of this! This song makes you long for the love you wish you had.

[@alexpantano9603]

This is the first song I heard of him. I played it on repeat for a zillion times, and I still can't get enough. Raw talent.

[@LornaCherylMartin]

I heard this song for the first time this year, 2023 ❤❤❤ and I cant stop playing it, plays in my head most days ❤❤❤

[@skyisthelimit9897]

I have this on repeat. I’m 41 and this brings me back growing up in Hawaii in back of the truck having the wind blow through my hair and hearing the coconut 🥥 trees 🌴 sway…

[@Max-zg2ci]

I grew up in Hawaii too, Ewa Beach 😊 isn’t it amazing how much this guy sounds like someone we listened to growing up? His voice and melodies, even his songs have this laid back feel Mana’o Company and Three Plus were able to convey. Hope all is well with you and your ohana 🤙🏾

RAYE IS HIS FRIEND THAT PASSED AWAY..!! R.I.P.. RAYE 🙌🏼

[@inouskehashibira1045]

Duuuude, that's so sad. I'm guessing he didn't have the chance to say how much he cared about her before she died. 😢😭😭😭😭

[@Brazj1]

Raye was obviously more than a "friend." Lol. "Put on a song and dance with you?" riiiiiight.

[@ggarytthompson]

Why Isn't this guy all over the place. We need great music like this all over the air waves. Just the other day I said where are all the great voices from back in the day. Thank You John you heard my call for a man with a song without a !@@$@!.

[@samulalimo6615]

His song “Sing to you” is on air here in Hawaii.. but i havent heard this one until Pandora introduced me. My favorite song from him so far

[@aamaker1001]

Pandora has me here. I'm sold on his music🔥😍👏🏽

[@sierramanning7570]

This song is so underrated! I love his style definitely refreshing to hear people still making music like this

[@francescolati8583]

2022 and still loving this masterpiece❤

I could listen to the song all day long. his voice is wonderful.

진짜 좋은데 왜 안 유명해지는거냐 ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ한국인인 사람 좋아요!!

[@slady210]

Reading the comments, its amazing how so many people kept repeating this song after they heard it! Glad to hear I'm not alone!! It stays on REPEAT. Seems I can't listen to it enough.😄😄🥰

[@TeeDee215]

I caught this song on Spotify, and I’m hooked. This is on a loop so many days. Love it!

[@giomediaworks]

Saw him perform this song at Scottsdale. I sung EVERY word!

[@dltmdhksdl]

GUYS i really recommend you all to listen to this with your headphones and try to listen to it with various types of equalizer settings You'll hear new things everytime you change the settings - I mean, this song is so so so rich there are so many things are happening in the background!!!!!!

[@terri3781]

I heard a Contestant on Idol last year 2021 perform this and looked it up right away. I listen to it every day and walk listening to this. Turned my brother and sister on to it too. Last year visiting Virginia we were playing it and my brother looks up and says... hey who is this?

[@edwinulloa8897]

I’ve caught myself putting this song on replay a couple of times already today. Great song. 🤙🏼

[@maatah11]

How has this song not hit 1m yet!? So underrated

[@프라하에서노는언니들]

빠져드는 노래, 너무 좋아요:)

[@lonnyrodriguez1241]

damn... this song makes me emotional..

[@whatsgoinontoday2371]

When he starts singing Ray and explaining ..also kept sayin it's been too long in harmony...so true.. I love it that's why I love this song

[@obrinkaadrieanna]

I cried so hard! It was a happy cry. My little cousin Reagan “Rea” was my childhood best friend & she was disconnected from our family because of her mom years ago. I missed her so much as I couldn’t talk to her and didn’t hear from her for years. last year she came back to us after turning 18. She moved in with me briefly and it was like everything we imagined when we were kids we were “all grown up”… this song spoke to me! Had to send it to her.

[@MelindadelosSantos]

Sheez, you’re the gift that keeps on giving! Strong, smooth, timeless, ageless, romantic!

[@debbiebland567]

Beautifully said Melinda! Love this song!

[@sebastiaosts]

I listened this song on replay all day! So wonderful

[@T.ROD1991]

Sebastian St.. So have I.. Still 11.20 pm and I won't get tired of it... Worked on my computer at home... Feels soo right

[@rexesili3898]

Me too

[@terri3781]

Oh my gosh my sister and I too. Hooked

[@justinachapa6384]

The healing process is so painful. My sister overdosed in her car at a gas station 2yo. This song is exactly what it feels like. When he says "i wanna talk to you, won't you talk to me?" Damn near broke me.

[@yvonnefranco-herrera3659]

We had the opportunity to hear you for the first time at the Chris Botti concert in El Paso, Texas . My husband and I have just become fans of your music . Best wishes for continued success . How lucky we were to have seen a fabulous show with all of you.

[@nicole8576]

I just saw him perform with Chris Botti 😊… I didn’t hear how Chris Botti introduced him but once I heard his voice 😃😃😃 I said “ohhhh, it’s him” Can’t wait to see him again. I love his voice/music 🙌🏽

Fell in love with him the first time I heard "Sing to You" on the radio at work.

[@UniversalLanguage1]

Love from my heart to yours. I have been following you for ages. Also -YOUR BRIDGES ARE FREAKIN PHENOMENAL and I just wish more musicians had your sense of dynamics and the forethought you invest in crafting these songs. For some of us it’s life saving right now-music is therapy and we are blessed to have your work to resonate with. So many humble thanks . 💫💫💫

[@jacobdeaton1602]

Definitely a fantastic song. Cool dude. Met him after the Chris botti concert last night. Humble and down to earth. Wish I was mindful enough to get a pic with him and my son.
