[@hectoraguilar5959]

Why can't I hear this on the radio? Why am I forced to listen to soulless shit with the same bass track and sophomoric lyrics. I need this in my life everyday. We need this in our life everyday. Music that reaches down into your soul. Makes you smile. Takes you on a journey that you never want to end. This is as perfect a song as you can get.

[@amoireg.3831]

Hector Aguilar so true

[@stephaneperron9852]

Real soul music can't be mass produced hence mainstream doesn't care for it because soulless corps want da money

[@rottenrobbie66]

My local FM radio station plays him all the time. Sun Radio Austin Tx. they have an internet stream.

[@donnan.8354]

U know I understand how ya feel....radio music sucks now but it didn't suck in my time..1968 1969 1970 etc... the best music on the radio OMG all the best wanted their music on the air

[@emptinessform1677]

You're quite the neurotic arn't you ...

[@JulianWyllie]

This is the kind of thing that needs to be bought on vinyl.

[@jonvillanueva1000]

Julian Wyllie done ✔️✔️

[@timwilbur4387]

I feel like you're missing out on the whole thing if you don't purchase this on vinyl in an actual record store. In summertime.

[@blacktableproductions6565]

I have it on Vinyl and its gorgeous!

[@onone2020]

just now heard this dude, and said the same thing.

[@MrCtsSteve]

I did :)

[@santelmo5222]

Read that Leon wrote this song as a "touching biographical tribute to his mother." He's easily becoming my favorite artist.

[@k.morningstar7983]

That makes so much sense. So beautiful

[@Lisa-ow5zl]

Ditto!

[@frederickballentine6558]

He is one of my favorite

[@kyleecameron2199]

Easily 💯

[@LisaSawyer317]

Born in 1964 actually. Hat tip to Leon and all Lisa Sawyers in the world.

[@kaylankatara3275]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@danniellawoods]

that's so cute and NICE!!!! lisa sawyer!😘😘😘

[@The_Tale_Trove]

That is too 😎. Your own personal song. Does it even relate?

[@kikofl6740]

Lisa Sawyer, if you are the inspiration for this song you must be happy¡

[@nottodaylilbaldhead]

Kiko Fl this song is to his mom lol

[@mariemichel92]

He wrote this for his mom. So sweet. 😌😊

[@frederickballentine6558]

[@christinacoleman3387]

this gives me hope for future music. love that he's bringing this sound back 💙 and that a guy as wholesome as him is starting to become popular

[@conqueringleo]

***** Exactly. LB's ushering in the age of "noveau-neo-soul!"

[@MariaJose-ys9lj]

M.aria e muito bom

[@enamartinezg.1808]

+Christina Coleman I completely agree with your comment.

[@noellaclarke9283]

I just found out about him last night and I could not be happier to hear him bringing this kind of music back.

[@gregc7699]

Christina Coleman the sound didnt go anywere its just not on the radio thats all

[@natogarcia1104]

This is an awesome song. They don't make um like this anymore. His song River is another really good song.

[@rosaadams8041]

"She found Christ at an altar all along he was calling her name" Idk why this words are so touching to me

[@debbiemarquez900]

I was born in 1952 and this is REAL.music! Love it

[@autonomy1045]

[@Coco-ps2uf]

When you start crying because this song is beautiful as shit then you realize Leon Bridges is gonna be a fucking legend........Never thought i'd ever feel this much soul in music again.

[@solssta]

[@DreKC]

Wow.. straight soul and talent! Give this man a Grammy already! We need more music like this nowadays.

[@frijolegibbssgee8329]

[@JB-wt7rr]

I've come to realize over the years this is one of my favorite songs of all time.

[@Motown65]

Circa 1963. This song sounds like it came out in 1963. Beautiful.

[@solarni1]

Is like the 1960s music and i love it.

[@RedLabs]

So guttered Leon Bridges isn't famous in New Zealand yet, one day. This song transcends everything, it is just 100% gorgeous.

[@TB12Pats]

Was wrapping up my senior year of high school and about to start college when I first heard this. Still in awe of this song after all these years.

[@edpearsoniii9603]

Leon is a timeless treasure of an artist, who writes music that's soul touching. God Bless Ms. Lisa Sawyer for giving the world this gift.

[@al-bakersophie6583]

This song makes me cry. "Eartha, swift as the sea, fierce as fire."

[@harryadams4628]

A star is born.

[@adfadf5571]

[@luisaoc7378]

Pure gold. Liquid, smooth gold.

[@sdavis8533]

R. Kelly, John Legend, Joe, and a host of others move over cause there's a new sheriff in town and his name is, Leon Bridges!

[@Shibbyshibshib]

+sdavis8533 R kelly needs to be OUT.

[@matthewturtle2597]

[@toddhoward4109]

Hearing him for the very first time!! Love it!!

[@Mr3tre3]

I love his 60's throw back doo-wop style, Reminiscent of Sam Cook.

[@fccitizen]

+Trevor P. Absolutely. I can't stop listening, and I need to go to bed! I am so moved by this song. I can't explain it.

[@malotonga4957]

i bet all the greats are smiling that you are bringing us the soul of music back especially sam cooke, much respect to you brotha

[@Zerej89]

Glass of wine, your lover and a Sunday evening while this is playing.

[@nawfsidehtown2927]

Nevermore RavenTryst YES!!

[@n.sphakeme762]

Nevermore RavenTryst - One day.

[@malotonga4957]

pretty tight how this song has the same vibe as "i only have eyes for you" by THE FLAMINGOS which means this man is taking the music back to the 60's and i think its awesome

[@hey.yo.gabssss]

I'm so happy that REAL music still exists!! Can't wait to see him live!! You go boy! I appreciate your sound!!

[@tkplayer92]

I had never seen Leon Bridges before his set at Lollapalooza. I have to say no set affected me like Leon did. I shed tears listening to him live, best show I have ever been too.

[@marcucalin3620]

I don't post usually but this song combined with the thunder storm in which i walk home made me the happiest person alive. The flashes from the lighting seem that are in perfect tune with the song and i'm so peaceful . Great day to be alive. Peace and love to all of you

[@jmrob1107]

This is far better than what the overwhelming majority of contemporary artists is trying to pass off as music today. I could listen to this over and over. In fact, I have. I hope Leon Bridges finds great success.

[@marievina5593]

ME LOV ME SOME LEON❗

[@lyricjackson2875]

this guy is the new sound!!! I have hope for the future bringing the 60's back

[@richobiquankenobi7499]

It is so awesome knowing this guy comes from a part of Texas I have a lot of history with. Absolutely love his soul sound that stands out from the rest of the very modern sound that is defined today in the 2010s. Keep doing you Leon!

[@trinipastrychef]

MSN Entertainment brought me to Leon Bridges. I love it. So much emotion. breath of fresh air in these times of EDM and teen pop

[@vincek6877]

Wow........ A young guy makin good music that doesnt follow a drum machine & sound like a childs rhyme.. bring it on ........ great words..great sound ..again....WOOOOW !!!

[@youngmanlee6022]

His cadences are Flawless. So soulful..Anyone think he sounds kinda like Usher in some parts? "swift as the wind, fierce as fire"..."worked two jobs"

[@harryadams4628]

+Youngman lee He listened to Usher a lot when he was younger.

[@natepinto444]

[@jakeharvey3582]

Wow. This song is a gem, along with the artist. Currently one of my favourite artists. If you all haven't seen the music video for River by Leon, please do watch it. Great song accompanied by a very moving video. Leon you're the man.

[@skorpionica75]

sooooo much SOUL! can't get enough...

[@libbydawg]

I keep trying to turn my phone up louder and it's been on max the whole time. So in love with you, Leon

[@robatx6106]

we better enjoy this before it blows up. peace

[@joelaustin3569]

Great cool vibe! Makes me appreciate life in slow motion.

[@agentgringo5238]

I just heard this smoooooth song 2 weeks ago on a flight from Miami to NJ...and it just hit my soul and stayed in me for the 2 hour flight. Kept playing it over and over until the plane door was opened. I hope this style of music comes back. Very 60's and soulful!

[@thedukeofearl79]

Gorgeous, fantastic song. We might get some soul from this fella here.

[@davidtaylor2098]

Elegantly simple and clean.

[@bublik25]

Something truly amazing. The industry have been lacking that kind of sound for a long time.

[@lunasimpano2417]

Hey Leon I mean i like your songs this vibe has to be in my wedding playlist it’s just swift warming to the heart

[@jebm2566]

Saw him down in mobile, AL. I felt like I was back in time.

[@stormyrivers4603]

I love this song, simplly love it, at 64 i dont look for many surprises but here is a gem. i knew this song was about his mother, had to be. such love when he sings it. im hooked on it.

[@em9311]

Being a millennial growing up with parents who played 60s and 70s music I find myself sometimes frustrated with the pop riddled, soulless music constantly played through the airwaves, Leon Bridges and Daniel Caesar have restored faith in my belief that good authentic music still exists

[@323curls]

THIS MUSIC IS PERFECT

[@michaelstukan3946]

I've been searching for this song for months under "New Orleans" and so happy I finally found it :))

[@kikofl6740]

Thank you, Leon. Lisa Sawyer is one of this songs that brings me the real felling of soul

[@gailfulsom9201]

Oooohhh so smooth. I LOVE his sound. Such a talented young man. I could listen all day. You have a big fan here Mr. Bridges.

[@kaylankatara3275]

this is perfection.

[@fccitizen]

+Kaylan J I have listened to it ten times tonight alone. It is amazing. It moves me in a way I can't begin to explain, and I can't remember the last time I said that about any song or artist.

[@jordannort8461]

This song gives me the feeling of oldies but goodies bringing back the sounds of yesteryears somewhere there’s a Lisa sawyer circa 1963 Ooo doo bop bop

[@armpauloferreira]

Terrific! Magnific song, full of soul... my favourite song of Leon, at the moment. Doo wop made well, that sax and keyboards, damn everything is so good here... a masterpiece already. This is pure dope!!! Can't wait for the full album, Leon Bridges. Awesome talent!

[@pluto1jack]

Young Man seems to have a solid, well grounded, down home, remembering Soul !!

[@GwynWalker]

Truly remarkable. Exceptional talent.

[@jninja8823]

😱😱😱😱😱 why in the world I never heard this man until now like wtf did I miss?i found gold again in music with him Sam Cook, John Legend, Stevie Wonders Ray Charles type vibe

[@diealysse]

Yup, i'm gonna buy his new album when it releases this summer which is the perfect time.

[@kaebaegotsnax1907]

She was born in New Orleans New Orleans, Louisiana Branded with the name Lisa Sawyer Circa 1963 Grandmother was Indian Indian Her mother's name was Eartha Swift as the wind Fierce as fire Her father's name was Victor Worked two jobs to provide for his flock She was the youngest of seven Seven She grew up on Louisa Street Chaos around, but inside, cozy Small, but a mansion in her eyes Eyes, eyes, mansion Never had much money Money But was filthy rich With the wealth you couldn't get from a dark casino Or a lottery ticket They had love Love, love Rich in love She had the complexion of The complexion of a sweet praline Hair long as the sea Heart warm like Louisiana sun Voice like a symphony Of the most beautiful instruments Whoa, beautiful At the age of sixteen Sixteen She found Christ at an altar All along he was calling her name The gospel spoken from an old wrinkly man Man, man Gospel She was born in New Orleans She was born in New Orleans She was born in New Orleans New Orleans
