Every now and again you come across a song and it within it contains the most magical lyrcis ever! This is how I felt recently when I heard a duet by UK singers, Labrinth and Emile Sandé. It is one of the most beautiful tracks I've heard in a long time and it just fits in with my message about beauty on the inside, big, small, square, round whatever! A love song with a difference. Saying I see you're beautiful on the outside but I want to see beneath that. You know? Because to me this song seems to be acknowledging the fact that what's beneath a person's appearance is where the real treasure lies and it is what's most important. I encourage you to listen to it. Let me know how it makes you feel. As a bigger person or as a smaller person does this speak to you? Here are the lyrics:
You tell all the boys no
Makes you feel good, yeah
I know you're out of my league
But that won't scare me away, oh, no
You've carried on so long
You couldn't stop if you tried it
You've built your wall so high
That no one could climb it
But I'm gonna try
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful
Would you let me see beneath your perfect
Take it off now girl, take it off now girl
I wanna see inside
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight
You let all the girls go
Makes you feel good, don't it?
Behind your Broadway show
I heard a voice say please don't hurt me
You've carried on so long
You couldn't stop if you tried it
You've built your wall so high
That no one could climb it
But I'm gonna try
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful
Would you let me see beneath your perfect
Take it off now boy, take it off now boy
I wanna see inside
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight
Oh, tonight
See beneath, see beneath,
I... Tonight
I...
I'm gonna climb on top your ivory tower
I'll hold your hand and then we'll jump right out
We'll be falling, falling
But that's okay
Cause I'll be right here
I just wanna know
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful
Would you let me see beneath your perfect
Take it off now girl, take it off now girl
Cause I wanna see inside
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight
Tonight, see beneath your beautiful
Oh tonight, we ain't perfect, we ain't perfect
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight
Emile's voice is unreal. It's rich but not too heavy and it carries you away with the feelings she puts in her voice and Labrinth's earthy organic realistic husky tone ensures every word he is singing is imprinted in your mind. You understand what he's singing immediately. He arrests your attention so you actually listen. But here's the magic between the two. The harmony! It's so beautiful. They are so in tune! It's natural, two voices , yet one. Can you tell? I am in love with this song. I really am. Do check it out on Youtube.
Once you have heard it I challenge you my blog readers to see beneath your own beautiful. Discover your own true beautiful worth!
"Take it off now girl! Take it off now boy!" You should look 'inside'. It will start to set you free.
See beneath and beYOUtiful!!!
