This is a good song. Thanks for introducing us to songs we might not have heard otherwise.
Have you ever heard of Angelique Kidjo? I just love her. We've met a few times, too, great person, funny. There are some youtube vids of her. I'd share my site about her, but I haven't updated in over a year. Shame on me.
Thanks again for the song.
Take care.

kanye west, you inspire me in everything that i do, i swear you are the best role model of anybody out, even more than barack dawg. i just wanted to say as to an artists (not on that stan shit) I really do love you for what you do best: being who you are. I am who I am and am purusing a degree in Philosophy. Even if everybody told me that it's not going to get me rich, it's something that I really love and I know that you do things you really love regardless of what others say and I want to thank you for publically not being afraid, being an individual, and doing what you love pursuing your passions, and all of that. You're the best man and I hope you read this! God bless you and your late mother would be proud dude! keep on doing your thing man i swear you've changed my life for the better and i strive to be original everyday, even with the haters, I don't let them stop me like you haven't let th haters stop you! Thank you for everything that you do and congrats on everything!

Hey Kanye,
This is Rolf, the singer from The Acorn. Glad you like the video. I was channeling you while I was driving. Could you tell? Also, I LOOOOVE your video for CAN'T TELL ME NOTHIN' with Zach Galifianakis and Will Oldham. Shit was crazy funny.
Come over for a barbeque next time you're in Ottawa. We can drink some cheap beer and play with the neighbourhood cats.
High-fives,
Rolf

music transcends,"lead by the light of a melody"... the video reminded me of how great it is to just "jam" and make music just for the sake of hanging out. My dad is a musician, and hanging out with his buddies and "jamming" is a favorite. I still get in on their jam sessions. Nothing like watching people try new things, make old music new, the glimmer of excitement when someone finally gets "it" right...the right note, the right pitch, the right chord, the right pause, the right emotion... so yes, apparently that was beautiful cause it got me thinking about all of that...lol.

Kanye West and "Mello Child" "Say You Will/Never Gon' Get Her" (Remix) Listen to it at www.myspace.com/MelloChildMusic When I 1st listen to 808s & Heartbreak I couldn't get pass this song. It was so abstract the track is hypnozing and had this deep emotion in it. I had had to jump on it and bless it. Kanye Please Listen to this remix. "Thanks for doing real music from the heart. Get at me fam if you feeling this." Much love -Mello
