good morning sunshines! hope everyone had a great weekend. a bit of a departure from my regular posts but i had an unexpected treat on saturday -- my lovely brother surprised with tickets to the maxwell/erykah badu concert! i said no at first {blame my temporary lapse of judgment on the heat} but eventually agreed. and would you believe that we were in the third row?! the above was taken from my seat. no zoom. seriously. needless to say, the show was amazing and it renewed my love of the concert. to watch talented artists do what they love and are so good at, from the musicians to the back-up singers, is super inspiring. and because i'm still feeling pretty good, i thought i'd share one of my favorite erykah badu songs with you.
yes, maxwell was the headliner and while i love him, i love me some erykah badu too. i know the video's a wee bit long but a tv appearance doesn't capture all that is erykah. all her crazy is fine with me because at the end of the day, she is uber-talented, innovative and brings it when performing. and i so relate to the words to this song -- when love's got a hold on you, it really won't let go. as she says, yoga, fasting, books or holy water won't help either.
oh, as you see in the above snaps, maxwell brought it with the beautifully tailored suit and erykah wore yellow sweatpants and a t-shirt with a black overcoat and top hat? you gotta love that.
Love this post!
