What a touching comment. I hope you continue to feel better through music xx
Lalah Hathaway; what can one say about a musician that clenches the aural dynasty of class, elegance and pure musical wonder. This sister just has her act 'together'. When I come home after a day out; I have to turn on Lady Lalah Hathaway to digest a symphony of musical genius. A smorgasbord of delectable melodic and harmonic pastries melded together to enable an aural epitome of delectable treats. This is a recorded work that 'must' be an integral part of everyone's musical collection! An angelic symphony prepared an structured for those of us that enjoy supreme musical excellence.

Those chords are beautiful! Those strings and synths are nice too!
Beautiful song sang by one of the best vocalists of our time and a genius like Kirk Whalum. Never get tired of it.
OMG, Lalah's voice is the truth!
This women’s voice is pure magic!
Why is she singing live and not pulling faces. Mind blown. How effortless
Anointed Kirk, Lalah & George Duke Sweet, Smooth Nothing but GOD'S GRACE
"It's What I do" is a musical oracle! Whalum and Hathaway are incredible.
If Lalah does not have the voice of an Angel, then I really cannot image what one sounds like...

What a powerful reminder of God’s love for us ❤️❤️❤️
The most beautiful love jazz ballad I have heard since Ellington and Coltrane's In A Sentimental Mood!😇
Words cannot express how I love this song! Love is what you do Christ, love is what you do❤️.
That note at the end was just breath taking
Her voice is amazing

Couldn't have said it better!
OMG... I head this song for the first time a few days ago... the lyrics, Lalah's voice, every single note & beat played... BEAUTIFUL. He loves me just because I'm me... what an amazing LOVE. Thank you, Lord.
This song speaks to my heart, and soul. GOD! every time I hear it, it reminds me that no matter how sideways my relationships went, GOD still loves me, and HE should be the ONLY MAN that I love.
*dies and floats up to music heaven*
So amazing! Jazz minister's to my soul. Amen
Lalah has the most beautiful voice ever. She doesn’t receive the recognition that she serves. The voice of an angel. Her singing & lyrics put me in a place of peace and love. Lalah, I love you girl! Keep up the great work.🥰😘🤗❤️😍💕👍🏽💪🏽🙏🏽😊🌹
This record makes me feel like what my heart would like to say it says everything this is what love feels like musically
I shed a tear... Just beautiful.
This is music that you can listen to forever without getting tired or bored. Great combo of a calm & beautiful voice & soothing accompanying instruments. Keep singing & playing Lala , Kirk &Co... Kingdom jazz, just the way I enjoy it...
Fantastic duo, great voice, big sax ….
Such a beautiful song!! Words cannot express how excellent it is!! Its Mastery; the vocals of Lalah, the exquisite Instrumentalists (from Kirk, to Stoddard, to George Duke). It's amazing! No wonder why it won a Grammy!! A perfect Expression of Gods Love to Humanity and His Children!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard...
That song is just absolutely perfect in every way. What a treat!
This song still rings in my head... I can't stop listening to it...beautiful combination
Jazz frees your soul by connecting with you on a deeper level. The expressions of the musician can be interpreted in so many different ways by each listener. There is no one same meaning. It is like a blank cheque to soothe your emotions. That's what Jazz does and nobody does it better than Kirk Whalum. Lalah Hathaway's voice and technique just perfect for this. I listened to this so many times I lost count.
Amazing voice...
This is what perfection sounds like.
Had the pleasure of attending there concert last Saturday in Jackson, MS where Kirk and Lalah performed this tune. It is a beautiful song. It looks like the late George Duke on keys. RIP.

I was so blessed by this song. Praise be to God in the Highest. I love this song. Sing it!

Awesome I have the CD and DVD 2011 enjoy & turn my friends on to this video of Lalah Hathaway Kurt Whalen❤
From the heart of God to and through the heart of Whalum (& company). Bravo.
wow wow wow wow wow wow wow. There is a misconception in peoples mind when it comes to real and true musicians that perform from the heart. The music that flows through their gift ahhhh. Lala, Kirk, George and the rest of the Band WOW WOW WOW. We do not see this much anymore. Real musicians, real music. Not sample. not copied. Go to 5:00, that brother is not sleeping. He is CAUGHT up in the music....AHHH its breathing through his spirit. Again Thank you Kirk Lala George (RIP)

Todas as vezes que ouço, eu choro. E olha que já ouvi muitas vezes. Realmente é imcompreensível este Amor. Aleluia !!! Every time I hear, I cry. And look what I've heard many times. Actually this is incomprehensible Love. Hallelujah!
Love this song, so wonderful.
Lalah is so fine.....Her voice fits this song. so smooth Kirk
Her voice is amazing, just Beautiful,brings tears to my eyes. You go Lala
Kurt and Lalah have never won a Grammy. In 2010, Kurt did a jazz CD to pay homage to his musical hero, Donny Hathaway. This CD didn’t get nominated for a Grammy. Then Kurt released a gospel CD with Lalah in 2010, and a song on the project ended up winning a Grammy. In the end, Kurt paid the ultimate tribute to Donny Hathaway by featuring his daughter this gospel CD. Kurt’s desire to honor someone other than himself, though God’s music, finally earned him and Lalah music industry’s top prize.
