Listen to 1978: www.rainbowblo...
José James - the forward-looking, genre-defying Jazz singer for the hip-hop generation - has done it again. “1978” (his 12th studio album since 2008’s “The Dreamer'') announces an instant classic, combining James’ deep love of jazz and hip-hop with songwriting and production nods to R&B heroes Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson and Leon Ware. Produced by James and featuring an all-star ensemble including Grammy nominees Pedrito Martinez (Camilla Cabello, Eric Clapton), Marcus Machado (Daniel Ceasar, Pharoahe Monch), Jharis Yokley (Sleigh Bells, My Brightest Diamond) Chad Selph (Bilal, FREELANCE) and David Ginyard (Solange, Blood Orange), “1978” pulsates with the socially conscious feel-good vibes of Marvin Gaye, Prince and Stevie Wonder. James also skillfully explores the boundaries of Black music, featuring Brazilian rising star and recent Latin Grammy nominee Xênia França as well as Congolese-Belgian rapper/filmmaker Baloji.

LYRICS
Got to get it
Oh got to get it
Got to get it
Oh got to get it
Got to get it
Oh got to get it
Got to get it
Oh got to get it
In this life I
I’ve had a feeling baby
That I was born beyond the known of space and time
Loving you I
Go beyond reason baby
Caught in the darkness and the music of my mind
Whenever we go down the road of love
We both know how it ends
Facing the dawn
We don’t know how to pretend
Whenever we get down my love
I pray that love has to win
But we look back
Over and over again
In this life I
I’ve had a feeling baby
That I was born to share the joy of God above
And tonight we
Explode through the ceiling baby
With our dancing
And our magic and our love
Whenever we go down the road of love
We both know how it ends
Facing the dawn
We don’t know how to pretend
Whenever we get down my love
I pray that love has to win
But we look back
Over and over again
Whenever we go down the road of love
We both know how it ends
Facing the dawn
We don’t know how to pretend
Whenever we get down my love
I pray that love has to win
But we look back
Over and over again
Got to get it
Oh got to get it
Got to get it
Oh got to get it
In this life I
I’ve had a feeling baby
That I was born beyond the known
Of space and time
Loving you I
Go beyond reason baby
Caught in the darkness and
The music of my mind
Whenever we go down the road of love
We both know how it ends
Facing the dawn
We don’t know how to pretend
Whenever we get down my love
I pray that love has to win
But we look back
Over and over again
