Anthony David: 4evermore

Bajo la influencia de maestros como Terry Callier, Bill Withers o Bobby Womack, Anthony David es una de esas joyas que no acaban de ser recompensadas como se merecen. Él es un estupendo cantante y compositor que se mueve con habilidad por un sonido R&B con toques de folk y soul. La colaboración con India Arie en "Words" -un tema de su anterior álbum- ha sido su mayor nivel de popularidad con la nominación a un Grammy, pese a contar con un gran talento a nivel vocal con una voz sensual, melodiosa y atesorar composiciones de calidad.

As Above So Below es el título de lo que es su cuarto disco a punto de publicarse y que podría significar su despegue definitivo. Un álbum que contará con la colaboración de su primo Shawn Stockman de Boyz II Men, y la presencia de una gran voz, la de Algebra en "4evermore", su video presentación y puesta de largo de un artista que tiene mucho por decir.

Letra

Forever more...
Forever's a mighty long time but I really wanna spend it with you
I shine when you shine and there's really no substitute
Forever more...
Forever's a mighty long time but I really wanna spend it with you
I shine when you shine and there's really no substitute
Forever more...


Take a picture, I want you to remember
When I professed my love
Press the button, I hope it's still recording
Every word I'm saying to you
I'm telling you right now from this day on
I've already weighed up the pros and cons
Melanie, you're just the woman I want (I want)
I want (I want), I want (I want)
Making my plans just to be with you
Just you and me babe till the days are blue
And I ain't ashamed love, to say I do (I do)
I do (yeah-he-eey...)




Pick a tree to carve our names
Let the world know it's not a game
Last longer than a wedding ring
Generations tattooed with the love we bring
From the seeds we sow
To the time it takes to grow
Long enough to show you
I won't let go of you
Cause without you I'm incomplete

Like this love song without this beat
I'm saying that you are the man I need (I need)
I need (I need), I need (yeah-heey)
I'm making my plans just to be with you
Just you and me babe till the days are blue
And I ain't ashamed love, to say I do (I do)
I do (I do), I do (I do)




Uh, yeah, it's Phontigga, yo...
Take a picture off the wall, try to reframe it
Take all the color off, try to repaint it
If you want picture perfect, well we ain't it
Because we painted our own portrait
Of me and you that could never be tainted
Because real love and bodies are colors of the spectrum
Mix a few greens with your reds and your blues
Create some new youse, then you rehang it
Start over, even though your friends gon' doubt you
And all them other niggas tryna scout you
It gets so tiring, but I'd be lying
If I said that I'd be better off without you
And when I think of walking out you
Smile in a way that make me feel like I'd be lost without you
Me and you are the only threats to us
Till death do us I'm standing next to ya, uh
