His manager knew Smokey, sent the rough demo to him, Smokey's daughter told her father Anderson was cool. Smokey called him back to link up. Smokey changed all the curse words to nice words and coached Anderson on his vocals to get this beautiful love song.
Man, this is one of the most heartwarming and romantic tunes I’ve heard in awhile. It avoids the usual romantic tropes and keeps it refreshingly simple: we once loved each other unconditionally, and we can do it again.

If you’re just finding out about Anderson .Paak, I implore you to watch his NPR Tiny Desk concert. It’s amazing, and he sings while leading the band on drums... it’s a masterclass
Great message, and after being married for ten years i think it is beautiful for people to hear this. People have to grow and change as they get older and your relationship grows and changes, too. Sometimes you go through things and your romantic life takes the back seat- doesn’t mean you can’t get it back. There is so much about being with the same person that is amazing and I hope people start to see that and stop treating each other like they are disposable. I know that my friends are envious of the relationship my husband and i have because they are wishing they had it in their life and now see it as a deficit in some ways- young people: the grass isn’t greener, find a good person and stick with them. Love is a choice, no fairy tale stuff
Thank you. I mean hell, anybody can find someone else they can also have fun with but unless your current person is being an ass or something isn't jiving....we owe it to each other to respect our situation and soul and to just bliw it all off for shallow reasons to
after Leave The Door Open, I really fell in love with his voice I just had to check his stuff out. Then I realized he's featured on Mac Miller's song "Dang!" and I had that shit on repeat! I still have it on my loop and I NEVER REALIZED Anderson Paak is in it until now. I feel so dumb and I hate myself for sleeping on this man xD
@@harana- It's never too late to find out about him. You're not dumb, it just took time to realize how great he is. If you want any suggestions for songs/collabs of Paak, just ask
The one that loves the most is the one that gets hurt the most. The love only survives if both of you are willing to renegotiate the relationship and make it work. Good luck to everybody who's going through tough times in a relationship and trying to keep it together. 🤙
That's true. It's important to find someone who understands that the honeymoon phase will always end at some point and accepts that the love and passion has to be worked on at that point. But it's worth it if both people are willing to do the work.
kuunami my ex left me months ago bec he thinks we’re stuck just because we moved past honeymoon stage. So it sucks a lot because i was willing to fight. He just gave up.
@@denissetan2613 Sorry that happen to you because most people don't understand the amount of work that it takes to keep things together. This is why most people cycle through relationships. However you sound so mature and understand what it takes to make a relationship work. I wish you luck and hope for your next relationship. With the mentally you have you will make a great girlfriend. One that is not afraid to fight for love.
@@kuunami Your right ! It through those ups and downs that a relationship goes through that truly test a couples love for each other. Being able to grow and learn and mature in your current relationship together with your partner can be a beautiful experience that only those who understand this concept enjoy.
@@munhjinodgarig6363 Fuck. I've felt like that for a long time. Can't rush the feelings though. I've learned to sit and feel what I'm feeling and let it fuel me. I hope you see better days soon!
DOUBLE0SEVEN Many people only stay in relationships because they’re afraid of change, want to avoid the hassle of finding new people, etc. I would guess that’s what they’re saying.
This is the first time im listening to an Anderson .Paak track, besides his collaborative project with Bruno. I was really fond of Anderson’s voice in those songs and after a bit, I’ve decided to give him a full chance of listening to his own work and notable percussion of his drums.
I remember when I saw this video thinking how his wife must feel watching this while he's kissing and putting his hands all over the actress in the video. Yuk. There was no need for that and it made me think he probably cheats.
@penelopepitstock R U serious? How many movies, tv shows, videos have you seen actors that are married have steamy love scenes and kiss? Do you say yuck? It's called acting. You are reaching. 🙄
@@Maple507 except he’s not an actor playing a part in someone’s script, it was his own music video so he had complete creative control. And that’s what he chose to do 🤷♀️
Dude these lyrics. Taking it out of the puppylove lyric trope, and pushing it into how to keep a relationship alive after the puppylove has faded. Love it. First Began by PJ Morton has a similar message and is super dope too.
I came here for "leave the door open' But I use to hear this song on the radio and never knew this was the guy singing with Bruno..oh well, now I GOT to look up his other stuff..he's the man!
@@sight-yvis119 smokey helped him with improving some of the lyrics in this song, but smokey did not teach Anderson how to make soulful music. Anderson Paak already had the creativity and love for it. Listen to his past albums-- before Oxnard. I'm talking about albums Yes Lawd, Malibu, and Venice all released before when he was still lowkey
Whoever filmed this did dope work on many levels! Loved the moss covered wall that Anderson was walking in front of with the sun peaking through the trees in the background and the squirrels running down it.
Was there bruh. Somehow me and wifey worked it out... If you both want it to work, it will get better .. Be willing to change and be open to compromise... Keep ya head up King!
Smokey is the real Goat. His musical track record is unbelievable. He's been performing since the 1950s till this day. That is one a hell of a music career and he still Sounds amazing.I Such an epic signature voice and to me, he is the greatest song writer of all time.

Dudes a nice emcee as well. Hes got a playful, but acrobatic flow, storytelling, good subject matter, clever wordplay AANNDD that voice. He one for the most charismatic & accessible enterainers to surface in a minute. He's the amalgamation of Michael, Sammy, Prince, Chapelle & MosDef & we get to witness the rise of this big bright star. Check his pre-paak projects as Breezy Lovejoy in Stone's Throw & the Hellfyre shit. All special!
Ok I'd never heard of Anderson Paak 😀 until he was mentioned in Smokey Robinson's life story. What a tune!!!! You can hear Smokey's influence on the track.
SILK SONIC brought me here,never even knew the dude but I AM LOVING EVERYTHING I’VE HEARD FROM HIM…He is very Good and he compliments BRUNO MARS fully.
I'm sitting here thinking Anderson who? Does anyone else think this young lady is beyond beautiful? Am I the only one? But I feel AP, This brother is off the hook so real, so in love with being in love. Anderson P, I know being so open can cause issues. Hang in there brother. Surround yourself with true people who have your back. We need you to continue being healthy and sharing the vibes. The industry has a way of allowing our talented people to go off the deep end, please keep it together. This song is pure love
I was listening to „leave the door open“ and thought „wow - who‘s the drummer?!“ and then listening to the first lyrics and thought „wow - who sings that so smoothly and cool?!“ - and then found out - Anderson .Paak doing both of it - a real gem there I found!!!
I just discovered this dude a couple months ago. I feel like I've been living under a fucking rock for not knowing about him sooner! I'm a music snob, and this guy is one of the greatest musicians I've ever seen/heard.
Now Anderson Paak has been out there for a while and give a brother his due but when you can keep up with Bruno Mars, going toe to toe, you're a hero in my book, WELL DONE!!!!
Real musician making real music about real life struggles. Watching this makes me appreciate my girl even more. If you’re reading this go tell your loved ones you love them! You never know when is their last day.
I don’t know if it was intentional, but the squirrel chasing after the other one fits perfectly In the shot of Anderson delivering flowers. Both chasing after something fleeing away. In Anderson’s case, his love life with his girl. 2:17
His smile is so contagious. I played this entire album while on a road trip with my mom and she loved it. I appreciate artists who can transcend generations.
I'm here after Bruno's and Andy's song!! This song is so good! Didn't skip a bit!! This is the first song I listened of him!! He's so fine as in the song leave the door open!! I'm now a new fan of you too Andy!!❤❤❤❤❤❤😘😘😘😘😘
@2:17 When the two squirrel 🐿️ ran by an my boy Anderson Paak smiled PRICELESS 🙏 You couldn't have choreographed that if you tried CLASSIC Thank you for your collaboration with Bruno Mars I've truly been sleeping on a LEGENDARY NEW KING 👑
If you know music, you can HEAR Smokey's touch on this....it clearly affected Anderson Paak's played a role in the writing of this song and I'm very glad, they need to collab more
Reminds me a lot of something that would be on John Legend's 2004 album "Get Lifted," but with a little more funk and amazing drums. One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite new artists!
Smokey Robinson is still a genius💯! He still got the writing, producing skills after being in the business for more than a half a Century! You Go, Smokey💖!
I question anyone's sanity who doesn't like this!! you're a demon with no soul if you don't rock with this! this album's gonna be classic! ppl throw that word around a lot, but this truly will be, when Smokey Robinson co-signs you already know!!🙏🏿
"its easier to run away then to look for what would make you stay" been living in these words for to long! We all out here living the same experiences intermittently.
I'm glad I decided to find out more about this awesome young man. His voice an style is incredible. I see why Bruno wanted to partner with him two gifted young man
How do you mend when you worlds apart? Ooh, carry on Ooh, from the start Somehow, we fell in love, then fell right out of touch And ooh, that was hard But ooh, here we are And it's easier to walk away Than to look for what would make you stay Remember when we first met? We were having so much fun So, now, how can we both forget Telling each other, "We’re the one"? We would make love (We would make love) At the drop of a hat Remember that? (Yeah) I remember you and me (You and me) Close as any two can be (Two can be) Now we're strangers in the night (Strangers) Awkward in the tight Oh baby, do you want to make it better? Do you want to stay together? Hey, if you do Then let's please Make some new Memories When you take somebody for your own It can’t survive on history alone Meet me at the hotel, motel Though we got a room at home Go to a place that we don't know so well It be nice, add a little spice Try some new seduction Show each other how Give each other new instructions On what makes us Feel good Now I just wanna make you feel good now Do you want to make it better? Do you want to stay together? And it's easier to run away Than to look for what would make you stay Do you want to make it better? Do you want to stay together? If you do Then let's please Make some new Memories Do you want to make it better? Do you want to stay together? If you do Then let's please Make some new Memories Do you want to make it better? Do you want to stay together? If you do Then let's please Make some new Memories Do you want to make it better? Do you want to stay together?

I would agree!!🔥
i think the same
Oh trust me give it a couple of months you gonna hear it on a lot of movies
For those of you who discovered AP from leave the door open....I'm jealous. You get to fall in love with his music for the first time🥺🔥
I understand what you mean. I am lucky¡¡¡ But only once¡¡¡
Absolutely true. Im all in.
im all in. :(
Fall in love I did!! 😍😍😍
YES!!!
Although he definitely stands on his own as a rapper; being an r&b/soul crooner suits him much better.
Facts. I mean, his versatility already makes him a G
Hes not really a rapper bud
He's probably only rapped on maybe 2% of his songs sooooooo yeah🤣
I found out Anderson Paak was singing this song, surprised the hell out of me.
Honestly we need more r&b/soul music
That's why music from Smokey's era will never die... It's what kept many homes together during rough times.

ANDERSON I LOVE YOU AND YOUR MUSIC
1. Best teef in the game. 2. Heart warming soul (those Smokey vocals!!) 3. Not a butt cheek in sight. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Well done Mr .Paak, and THANK YOU.
WHich parts were smokey?
Why'd you gotta say teef 😂?
@@JessMCarey TEEF 😂😂😂
The teef part. Lmbo! 🤣😂
His keyboard player is GOLD...never let him go!
BEAUTIFUL SONG ANDY BEAUTIFUL MAN.
Anderson.Pak got the great Smokey Robinson on this track bridging the gap ❤️
As the quote goes “Anderson .Paak is your favorite musical artist favorite artist.”

Super facts

I just discovered this dude a couple months ago. I feel like I've been living under a fucking rock for not knowing about him sooner! I'm a music snob, and this guy is one of the greatest musicians I've ever seen/heard.
Word to that
This sounds like some old school musiq soul child vibes...some grown folks music right here..
He is very good. Thanks Bruno for exposing. I would have never checked him out. He's different.
this video is pure love. damn i love how this female actress smiles it looks so real!
Now Anderson Paak has been out there for a while and give a brother his due but when you can keep up with Bruno Mars, going toe to toe, you're a hero in my book, WELL DONE!!!!
My uncle passed away this year he loved smokey Robinson I showed him and got a smile out of him old school and new school miss you unks
Real musician making real music about real life struggles. Watching this makes me appreciate my girl even more. If you’re reading this go tell your loved ones you love them! You never know when is their last day.
I don’t know if it was intentional, but the squirrel chasing after the other one fits perfectly In the shot of Anderson delivering flowers. Both chasing after something fleeing away. In Anderson’s case, his love life with his girl. 2:17
I was thinking that as well LOL I wonder if that was planned
Nice observation!
Cant belive I hadn't stumbled on him before. This is amazing.
My teen daughter introduced me to this artist a few years ago. And my preschooler reintroduced me after Trolls 2. I'm here to stay.
His smile is so contagious. I played this entire album while on a road trip with my mom and she loved it. I appreciate artists who can transcend generations.
Can't help but think Common would drop the smoothest verse on this track
bt. this comment is underrated
That's gay
prefer redman on any and every rnb cameo needed
I can already hear the first bar. Dayum!
Method man🤔
I'm here after Bruno's and Andy's song!! This song is so good! Didn't skip a bit!! This is the first song I listened of him!! He's so fine as in the song leave the door open!! I'm now a new fan of you too Andy!!❤❤❤❤❤❤😘😘😘😘😘
@2:17 When the two squirrel 🐿️ ran by an my boy Anderson Paak smiled PRICELESS 🙏
You couldn't have choreographed that if you tried CLASSIC
Thank you for your collaboration with Bruno Mars I've truly been sleeping on a LEGENDARY NEW KING 👑
If you know music, you can HEAR Smokey's touch on this....it clearly affected Anderson Paak's played a role in the writing of this song and I'm very glad, they need to collab more
Never heard of this young man before..I will be adding him to my playlist..
Seem as I slept on this one.
Reminds me a lot of something that would be on John Legend's 2004 album "Get Lifted," but with a little more funk and amazing drums. One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite new artists!
Michael Card EXACTLY that album was amazing.
Hmm
I agree. John Legend definitely came to mind.
Yes, but with alot more funk. Love that about Paak
@@Portia7189 I remember 'I love you love' though its not very drumsy and about taking a chance on love after you've been hurt
best song fr
"It's easier to walk away, than to look for what would make you stay." Whew! Now that is a line!
Paak back on the smooth shit! I think I'm gonna like Ventura a lot more than Oxnard
nd20
Same. Oxnard has some good stuff but I think the Soul shit is just Paak’s natural habitat.
Yea, you’ll hear people in Ventura county say that a lot XD
Y'all not used to that 90s G-funk, cuz Oxnard was that throwback... pull yourself together man...😂😂😂
@@Onlylaurenarnes Oxnard was dope!
Malibu was a classic hated Oxnard
Im really diggin this man here❤❤❤
This is for me and my baby miss him so much passed away 6 years ago everything I do I think of him there is no one else better 😂
I'm glad GOD put this type of instruction on his heart. So sweet and soothing.
The song hits harder when you're in the same situation.😔
U ain't lying..
Smokey Robinson is still a genius💯! He still got the writing, producing skills after being in the business for more than a half a Century! You Go, Smokey💖!
This song shows how we invest our energy [spiritual currency] on deep relationships instead of shallow relationships.
I question anyone's sanity who doesn't like this!! you're a demon with no soul if you don't rock with this! this album's gonna be classic! ppl throw that word around a lot, but this truly will be, when Smokey Robinson co-signs you already know!!🙏🏿
Great job, Anderson Colgate .Paak
Anderson Tetra Paak
Dats braces baby
Best teef in the game!
You put the dot in the wrong place. Its supposed to go before .Paak
"its easier to run away then to look for what would make you stay" been living in these words for to long! We all out here living the same experiences intermittently.
Man i m so thankful to bruno that i discovered Mr. Anderson.Paak, the best teeth in the game 😁
I'm glad I decided to find out more about this awesome young man. His voice an style is incredible.
I see why Bruno wanted to partner with him two gifted young man
How do you mend when you worlds apart?
Ooh, carry on
Ooh, from the start
Somehow, we fell in love, then fell right out of touch
And ooh, that was hard
But ooh, here we are
And it's easier to walk away
Than to look for what would make you stay
Remember when we first met?
We were having so much fun
So, now, how can we both forget
Telling each other, "We’re the one"?
We would make love (We would make love)
At the drop of a hat
Remember that?
(Yeah)
I remember you and me (You and me)
Close as any two can be (Two can be)
Now we're strangers in the night (Strangers)
Awkward in the tight
Oh baby, do you want to make it better?
Do you want to stay together?
Hey, if you do
Then let's please
Make some new
Memories
When you take somebody for your own
It can’t survive on history alone
Meet me at the hotel, motel
Though we got a room at home
Go to a place that we don't know so well
It be nice, add a little spice
Try some new seduction
Show each other how
Give each other new instructions
On what makes us
Feel good
Now
I just wanna make you feel good now
Do you want to make it better?
Do you want to stay together?
And it's easier to run away
Than to look for what would make you stay
Do you want to make it better?
Do you want to stay together?
If you do
Then let's please
Make some new
Memories
Do you want to make it better?
Do you want to stay together?
If you do
Then let's please
Make some new
Memories
Do you want to make it better?
Do you want to stay together?
If you do
Then let's please
Make some new
Memories
Do you want to make it better?
Do you want to stay together?
Love this
How to make the music better! Thanks for putting the lyrics
Much thanks for writing down the lyrics:-)
What do you think about Chef Will's new single? He Reminds us of Anderson Paak
Thank You!
