You said it. As if I want already hooked on the song on first listen, this was perfectly altered to be live. And just think, no one in the mainstream made anything like this when this came out. Lupe is seriously a legend.
Words cannot describe how much I like this song ever since it came out. And this whole performance...man they killed it. This song takes me to another world.
Lupe got so much swag..that shit just oozes out of him naturally...I love it..he's the whole package...fine as hell and brains for days...IT'S DA LU 4EVA!
The best live performance i've ever heard from a rap artist, absolutely unbelieveable the sound of the band his flow the lyrics absolutely beautiful. He quotes Shakepeare in a rap song that says it all really. One love Lupe.
mannnn i see why they were bouncin and vibin on stage, the live version sounded so damn AMAZING i felt lost in the damn song LOL.. hell i thought he was talking DIRECTLY to ME.... i literally felt like i was about the float listening to the melody and the words OMG #thatgoodshit
i literally love this version sooo much ! lupe took me to another world with this song ! :) can't get this song out my head it will forever be on replay ! im inlove lol
That"s so beautiful song, I'm a metalhead, but I really like Lupe's music :) And to see a real band with him in live make me more impressed by his talent :D
Lupe is hands down top ten rappers of all time, and he's only released two albums. He has such amazing talent. I love every song he puts out. He's hip-hop's savior
niggas say theres no real hip hop out and then sleep on artists like lupe. this performance is beyond rap, and simply amazing. he should always roll with a live crew (band). he was awesome live
i completely agree with u man this sounds better thanks to the jazzy feel to it. I still like the studio version, but dam AOL knows how to improve these songs. Lupe has to be the biggest genious Music has ever seen in its life.
I think we can proudly say that during our time there was a rapper of the 21st century who could make music and rap as great as the classics of the 90s like Nas (Illmatic), Jay-Z (Reasonable Doubt), A Trible Called Quest (Low-End Theory), The Roots (Do You want more?). I think both of Lupes albums make the top 20 of the greatest rap albums ever made.
it may just be me but i like this live version better than the studio version lupe is on another level compared to todays half-assed artist that call themselves rappers and thats the TRUTH!
This is hands down one of the most beautiful hip hop live performances you will ever witness
Real talk. Beautiful...
I'm crying because this is so beautiful and no one wants to make music that's this moving anymore.. And also, nostalgia
ISwear. Soulful material
You said it. As if I want already hooked on the song on first listen, this was perfectly altered to be live. And just think, no one in the mainstream made anything like this when this came out. Lupe is seriously a legend.
facts smh its still around just gotta search for it. They dont want us playing mainstream like this with good messages...its all dumb'd down
Still bumping this in 2020. First time on my way to go meet her traveled an hour away with this song on replay. Chills. Gem for sure. Cheers!
Good ol days
He captures the feeling of being freshly inlove so well, you can feel it through the music

Best rap performance I've seen of a song, and despite Lupe having so many amazing lyrical songs this is still my favourite.
Lupe is so cool 😎 I love the guitar riffs at the chorus, it sounds like kissing you by Total.
Definitely sounds like total
Been looking for this video for about 13 years 🔥🔥
trully one favorite lupe joints. perhaps atop the list. his lyricism an imagry are so pure one this one
Lupe Fiasoc is one of the illest rapper's to ever touch the mic real talk.
i like this version way better than the original
Normally live versions dont sound as good as the real version.
But this live version is just as good as the song off the album!
david martinez, never delete this version pls
Them trumpets touch ya soul
I was in my feelings for a sec when it started lol.. brings back memories..
Eternally in love with this song.
Damn.....that was beautiful!!!
Yea
OMG THEY JUST MADE MY FAVORITE SONG SOUND BETTER WITH THESE INSTRUMENTS!
i wont even lie dude, this guys lyrics are up with the greatest of the 90s like tupac, biggie, nas, jay, black thought, styles p, q-tip, warren G
Still in love with this song, and even more with this version
im seriously blown away by Lupe. A true performer and original artist

Rare, much better than the album version.
Who is here in march 2020? Love so much this live version!
"I like her like a metaphor it's to get "
He likes her because she is like a metaphor .
shes hard to get . so that's why he likes her .
simple ; )
It also ties into using “like” or “as”.
Which is technically a simile, not a metaphor. But it doesn’t make the line any less clever. Lupe is a genius
That guitar makes this song that much more epic, kind of like a soothing harp.
Shit is win.
Completely agree... and he has the music production backing him up too. He's the complete package for real.
wow. This version was fly as hell. This should have been on the album that band was getn to.
Daaamn this is freshh. Lupe's always been making the steezy music.
