Yes to all this in 2024!!! Thank you Sam xxx

[@fajarzakri4936]

I literally just found out about this and this is out of this world amazeballs... LORD. I was humming "Black & Gold" for no reason and thought to myself, "What's Sam Sparro up to lately?" and here we are. The fact that you got NIKKA FUCKING COSTA on this track... have mercy on me. Thank you so much for this.

[@glowsause_malo7]

2 years later, exactly the same as you. Where have I been🤞🏽😭

[@ossanorice]

The most underrated artist of my life..... I play your music at every party I throw and people always ask"who's that That's a banger" been out here trying to educate these children for years

[@xbxbxb5814]

Omg me too. They need to wake up!!!! In my car at work. Facebook story reels everywhere.

[@zanderu007]

SAME! been shouting at anyone who'll listen since 2009!

[@Blood0cean]

Why does it feel like he seemingly disappeared after releasing the black and gold album, to me that is lyrically the best pop song that exists

[@AudioArt1]

Fendi fact

[@rollcall5938]

I said the same thing!!!

[@stephenmkahler]

So much talent right here! The best Minneapolis sound since Hearsay and Rhythm Nation. I'm so grateful for Sam's music!

[@j.s.5180]

This late 80's/early 90's a e s t h e t i q u e is just delicious.

[@razvancelmare4773]

He deserves so much appreciation 🥲

[@RockSolitude]

This would of been huge if it released in the 80s or 90s.

[@glowsause_malo7]

Oh my soul, this was 2 years ago🤞🏽🤯 Where have I been🤞🏽😭

[@jorgegabriel7884]

I just rewatch the black and gold video and I was wishing he did some synth wave type of music and look my wish was fulfilled 😊😊😊

[@Imhotep_DrummerJones]

So smooove and groovin’…

[@AnythingEverythingT.V.]

This deserves more views

[@AdamaBoudoir]

LOve it so much.Well done Sam ! Makes me so nostalgic (the 90's good times )

[@greggmitchell2392]

This is giving me Jam & Lewis 80s SOS Band in the best way

[@tommyleaps]

Best song of 2020. Hands down. 🔥✨

[@symphonicsurgery]

If anyone needs proof that KZbin isn't a fair platform, then this is it! Why wasn't this number one for as long as Whitney & Bryan Adams combined????? LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE Boombox Eternal!!!!! xxxx

[@shareebrown4362]

Masterpiece!!!!

[@oneshinyglove803]

Yes, we must build a bridge of communication to try to understand others lives and experiences as well as our own. It's called compassion and there is so little today!! Love this song and your work!!

[@8OH3_]

Chillllls every time I hear this song. Love love the visual too

[@euyagoh]

this song is just increadible.

[@revapettaway4021]

This is the artistry I never knew I needed. THESE VOCALS ARE SNAATTCCCHHEEDDDD.

[@unaa9380]

Reminds me of can we talk by tevin Campbell

[@frankfrantisek]

Sam, I love the whole album. It should definitely be promoted way more. I only discovered it a few days ago. I've been hooked since. Listen to it over and over. I love the concept, melodies and harmonies, arrangements. Just a fantastic revival of the great r'n'b/soul/pop of the late 80s and early 90s. I feel like you must be my soul brother. :-)

[@amberreed7704]

This is my jam! Definitely my favorite from the album. I’m glad it got a video and some love.

[@MsSkupsie]

Yes honey!!

[@lethalmaxim]

And yes to the Rosie Gaines moment too

[@straittalkn]

Goddammit Sam is so underrated. Shout out from Australia 😉

[@iansessions5866]

You have such astounding voice. I really love the voice quality you have

[@tamuna030]

[@marcostellaro9132]

Sei semplicemente unico solo tu

[@jairofranciscohernandezguz7872]

❤

[@DSKim-ej5uf]

When I saw your video for the first time, my heart was so happy. Thank you for not only liking your video, but also giving me great happiness. Your video inside me is my own fantasy from laughter to tears, but I will pray for your video to grow really well. Someday I want my heart to reach you. I will cherish your image as beautiful as the starlight in an empty place in my heart. Wouldn't it be great if my playing could become a purple star in the morning and my heart could reach you? Thank you for making my everything so happy for a little while because of one reason I watch your video. With a precious relationship, I would like to give you praise and support with sincerity and sincerity. Your video makes my dewy eyes forget all the worries of the world and brightens my dark heart. When I wet my heart while watching your video in the cold wind that blows under the purple clouds in the winter dawn sky, my harmonica performance sheds tears. When my heart, who has fallen into your video, rides the winter wind and passes by your side, can I meet you someday.... Your video I see under the cold winter sky at dawn is so beautiful and more enchanting. It is your video that I want to watch over and over again, even if I watch it over and over again. I fell in love at first sight while watching your video alone. As if it happens in a movie....how did you have such a wonderful talent that is full of strange charms unique to your video? I was amazed at the excellence of your skills and was moved by your sincerity and hard work while watching the video. I hope your video will bloom as a flower in my heart and stay as a flower of undying love for a long time. I'm looking at your video like a dream.. As the algorithm introduced me, I just looked down and suddenly the first picture caught my eye somewhere, so I looked up again and saw your video. When I face your video, for some reason, my past sadness disappears...

[@keremk8568]

guess who is back

[@marcostellaro9132]

Prince George Michael Freddy Mercury Sam sparro sei leggenda un mito icona vivente l erede più grande di prince ecc ecc

[@robweg7255]

Talent that that as.... well done Sam you deserve more recognition. Boombox Eternal is a masterpiece

[@aldricmartinez-olson7509]

This right here!

[@butchmcqueen5625]

A complete masterpiece 💜

[@amandacanny]

I have loved Sam from the very beginning, I am so glad he brought himself back out on the scene. Boombox Eternal is FANTASTIC and on top of that, he's been sober for 7 years.

[@Willlll1m]

Like a cross between a Janet Jackson & Prince song, I'm obsessed

[@DukeKeatsMusic]

Prince would be proud, sam listened to you since i was a kid.. im 23 now, have my first single out, youve inspired me a lot! in love with this new song! So underated

[@coreystuart]

Sweet baby Jesus on a cross....this is the SOUND we NEED this year. Not one bad song on the entire album. Reminds me of that one incredible song you loved that got played out in the 80s, you know, the one that had you singing along...yet once it started, you suddenly realized you never heard it at all to begin with.

[@littlenige]

Wow am I late to the party - love this on first hearing. Didn't know a lot about Sam's music but the more I hear the more I like it.

[@Multyjayck]

You're a GOD Sam ! You're such underated ! Keep being yourself ❤️ your music is pure diamond 😍✨ huge fan since 2008 !

[@angelrobles7201]

"Be kind, please rewind" Yes I did sir. Many times!

[@beejanland6561]

Sam Sparro and gang 💜 serving us those vocal chops once again! Such a joy!!! 🔥🔥

[@chfma]

The sound of "The SOS Band" transferred into 2020 by Sam Sparro with an incredible song - love it Sam!!

[@kidwaryodproduction]

Good point 🙂 Love when past and present can link together. Sam was very expert on blending his own sound with a past sound result in unique experience 🙂 And he's remind me of Holly Johnson (voice) and Paul Rutherford (Looks) from Frankie Goes To Hollywood which makes me wonder what if they're continued making music like this.

[@cyco781loco1]

Can’t beat some retro synth 👌 me and my girl was driving yesterday playing the song everything at high volume 👌 still love that song good job Sam this song is also fire 🔥

[@thenighquestcast9104]

Sam Sparro, Donny Benet, and Thundercat out here trying to save music's soul. It's a crime that this isn't the anthem for humanity.

[@JonathanGardnerTV]

Whew, serving us late 80s R&B BLISSS

[@danilogabriel_]

I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW TALENTED THIS GUY IS. For a brief moment, I forgot to do my daily check on his page on Spotify. And then... BOOM, just saw that he launched a new album... 7 MONTHS AGO. I'm BLOWN AWAY. I love this guy.

[@micai.j8920]

Your recognition should be HUGE!, so much talent and creativity. Always loved your music, been playing this latest album a lot. Keep the music going and 80s style is definitely your thing, Love it.

[@BritRick09]

INCREDIBLE!! This is my favorite song off the album and this video is a gorgeous representation. Love you, Sam

[@lethalmaxim]

I see you Janet Jackson outfit. I see you Mnek cameo. 💜💙🧡 get it girl!

[@MsTinyterror]

I NEEEEEED HIM TO GWT MORE RECOGNITION. A FUCKING GOAT. THIS VOICE IS TO DIE FOR 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 always been a fan

[@AnythingEverythingT.V.]

How did this dude..capture the essence of late 80s\early 90s R&B.... It sounds so Authentic

[@clemarmclean9443]

Was hoping you'd shot a video for this song, my favorite on an incredible album. Peace.

[@alenasalas3299]

Wow, such an amazing song! That’s what I was needed in this crazy world, I swear..

[@subfrost7]

sam is a person i wish i could drum for. i wish i could jsut be in the studio and just BE.

[@krumgeorgiev4120]

What a great homage to Michael (Human Nature, Man in the mirror) and Prince with the NPG!

[@LaHautAndCie]

the last minute is pure bliss ; this is what i call pop perfection (having lots of goosebumps)

[@YaGARuD3boY]

WOW! what a masterpiece! May God bless you Mr Sparro and all your loved ones.

[@MacBlogster]

Wow! love this! Love his voice and his music! 😍

[@neggroove]

I'll be here in 2033 and this song will still be my favorite song !

[@HellBomb]

One of my favorite artists ever! Wish he would perform again💜

[@jinawalls5025]

I heard this song in the airport and immediately thought Janet Jackson and THE GOOFY MOVIE came together as one. I was bopping to this with tears in my eyes. The lyrics, the modern New Jack Twist, the vocals, the emotion... Yes, I became an instant fan. Bought his whole collection in three days. Underrated artist and needs to be recognize for his work.

[@eido4889]

Sam bro I swear down you're killin it!

[@GB-vp2io]

"Can We Talk"

[@NeglectedField]

So nobody's paying attention to the awesome 80s style R&B album that the Black & Gold guy did. Come on, people!

[@xbxbxb5814]

What wants to het this album to number1 #samsparroboomboxeternal

[@TheSpookyDuke]

Why did we all know you've got an 80s soul?

[@ChristieFaith]

I got a beautiful feeling of love and unity from this song, a true gem in a time of strife and adversity.

[@sldtrslck]

My brother showed my SS. This vid is proper retro.

[@reubenmcguinness2508]

sam sparro underrated AF and sam smith has lost his way.

[@connorbrown5240]

Please make another song like Black and Gold

[@dontbdirtyicecream]

CAPTAIN SAM SPARRO ;)

[@LucianaZeta]

SOS band + Prince ❤️🔥🎵

[@najfrusciante]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@coreystuart]

Last year I discovered "80s versions of current songs." This is like that familiar song you think you know, but never heard it at all. And these songs are Sam's own. I have successfully been taken back to 1987. Where are my damn roller skates??

[@kyngou]

I clicked on this cause I thought he had done a cover to Tevin Campbell’s Eye to Eye and I just realized I need that in my life

[@ILENEmusic]

Sam your voice captured me when I was kid in 2008. The originality. Unparalleled

[@Hxllysis]

I just love this, super groovy & fun to dance to, really romantic as well 7u7 God bless you, Sam

[@MayaLove777]

Please do a video for Marvellous Lover! Love the album by the way love the 80s vibe it's amazing!

[@AadiyahYahsharala]

I thought this was going to be a tevin Campbell remake....but this didn't disappoint me

[@FreePalestine3974]

Simply beautiful song and visual. I get comfort and peace when I hear this song with just the right amount of groove.♥️♥️

[@nadersoli815]

I love you, Mr. Sparro. You are the king! I would marry you and I'm not even gay! All my best!

[@OnePhilomath]
