Holy nugget cheese cake, she just covered the legendary song like it was written for her. She made it so easy and very talented musician. I hope 2017 will be her good year
Lol my neighbor was playing this song everyday very loud, one day I paid attention to the melody and I fell in love. In my case Shazam did recognized it
oh! wow!!, absolutely awesome!!, she's brilliant!! a true musician, love this song, love all her music, her style, look, unlike many other female artists, she's covered!!, it's all about her talent and voice, that's how it should be, hope she's around for a very long time, forever!lol!, pure genius!!
Yuna is incredible. Such a refreshing and creative artist. Can't wait to see what she brings next! This piece has that cool Californian 70s feel, so laidback.
Niiicceee, love, love this version. Loved Brothers Johnson version too but this is different and lovely as well. This girl is very very very very very GREAT !!!!!
I had a exhausting day ... came home and switched on to RUclips drinking tea and i found Yuna and her beautiful awsome and soothing song... loved it...strawberry letter 23...🍓✉23
One thing that i like about Yuna is that every time she covers a song she has her own style of covering instead of sounding like the original artist that sang the song. It is absolutely brilliant!
Well...about that...If you check out the original by Shuggie Otis (the more popular Brothers Johnson version is actually a cover) you'll find that her style and Shuggie's are very much aligned...
R Minderhoud Hi there, next time if you looking for some great music and you dont know artist download from google shop on your smart phone applictaion Shazam, they will tell you 100%.Good luck
Thank you, Warren. Well, if no one else will... Hello, my love I heard a kiss from you... Red magic satin playing near, too All through the morning rain I gaze - the sun doesn't shine - Rainbows and waterfalls run through my mind In the garden - I see west Purple shower, bells and tea Orange birds and river cousins dressed in green Pretty music I hear - so happy and loud Blue flower echo from a cherry cloud Feel sunshine sparkle pink and blue Playgrounds will laugh if you try to ask, is it cool? If you arrive and don't see me I'm going to be with my baby I am free - flying in her arms, over the sea Stained window, yellow candy screen See speakers of kite - with velvet roses diggin' freedom flight A present from you - Strawberry letter 22 The music plays, I sit in for a few
Now! She's my favorite artist after Adele, whatever religion you are it doesn't matter. UK is not a racism country like US. Please come to UK, we always welcome and appreciate your talent.
So you're welcoming of all religions and want to rip on the United States, why don't you take your welcoming ass over to Iran or North Korea ,,and then tell me how racist we are, make sure if you go there you are not gay ,Jewish or Christian because they will literally kill you because of it
Kristie Lee Mobley i can imagine how things are in iran and north korea now. you walk to market and ask for the price something that you want to buy, and suddenly the owner of the shop asked you "are you gay?" and when you say yes, suddenly passerby hold you from behind while the shop owner throw knife at you while shouthing the admiral ak thing... thank you for your info, i now know how world works...... use your common sense please....
Yuna tends to own every song she covered.... Nirvana, Incubus's I miss you, Drake's Hold on we're..., Beatles(Savage s/track), Aulani's theme, & of course Frank Ocean's....
First time coming across Yuna ... ummm what rock have I been under?! She is AMAZING her voice is literal honey and boy can she cover a song!!!! The talent is in abundance girl! Modest and pure talent
Heard this on the H&M commercial first and found this on youtube a few weeks ago, i can't stop listening to it! i can't wait to buy her album when it comes out in september :)
Shuggie Otis 1971 original is so pretty, and Brothers Johnson 1977 remake is simply spectacular. This version really isn't awful, it's just different... and in my opinion it's far better than the 2010 Akon cover that made my ears bleed.
Never heard of her before, but heard the song on the H & M ad, sounds a bit 60-ish, but it has took my fancy, had to hunt down who sang it, it brought me here..
Just heard this song in a commercial. I sometimes get goosebumps when I hear a good song. Got them BAD when I heard this...lol Nice song. Loved the original.
Really good cover! I think the little psychedelic solo bit should’ve been mixed louder, I love that piece and is definitely an attraction of the song. Really great, though, feels so modern and does something interesting with it
Talents are inserted by God into human beings regardless of race n religion. Yuna has done Justice to the song, she beautifies it with her soothing fresh voice. She is a real deal.

I think it was an H&M ad where I first heard this song! ❤
Holy nugget cheese cake, she just covered the legendary song like it was written for her. She made it so easy and very talented musician. I hope 2017 will be her good year
Your swear word is delicious 😋
You had me at "Holy nugget cheesecake..." and I agree with you on the cover version!
yes..and personally i love Yuna version more than the original..but the original is still great though...
Didn't even know this existed!
H&M brought me here and I don't regret anything.
Haha Same Here! Absolutely in love with this song! I also like the original version too. :)

Those days when you just want to immerse yourself on Yuna's song all day .... i'll start with this song first :)
Tough song to cover but Yuna's version is excellent
Archive of Southeast Asian Music it's a ok
Love this song. I heard it on the H&M commercial, but as said Shazam didn't recognize the song. Finally I found it!!!! It's a great song.
Really? I just googled H&M advert song and it was the top link.
fun053 were you found this song
Lol my neighbor was playing this song everyday very loud, one day I paid attention to the melody and I fell in love. In my case Shazam did recognized it
I did a google song search for a new commercial she's on (im sure you heard it). She's amazing. That new one is better but this is real good as well.
oh! wow!!, absolutely awesome!!, she's brilliant!! a true musician, love this song, love all her music, her style, look, unlike many other female artists, she's covered!!, it's all about her talent and voice, that's how it should be, hope she's around for a very long time, forever!lol!, pure genius!!
Yuna is Queen of Cover. She made amazing covers for great songs like Come As You Are , Here Come The Sun and Strawberry Letter 22
+sarah aleya aah
and also frank ocean thinking bout you...
and hotline blink cover drake
Is it juz me or did u guys blatantly ignore the fact she also covered Justin Bieber's What Do You Mean? hehee
sarah aleya and you should covers yourself
Hadn't heard this song in a while, great remake of an oldie. Glad I heard it loud & fresh on H&M commercial. Thanks Warren Roberts.
ur welcome...enjoy!
Warren Roberts Thanks Warren you're a star !! Linoy Peretz you can find the lyrics on RUclips if you type in - lyrics to Strawberry Letter 23.
Marilyn Haughton so glad you enjoy.
Yuna is incredible. Such a refreshing and creative artist. Can't wait to see what she brings next!
This piece has that cool Californian 70s feel, so laidback.
The brothers Johnson will love this rendition
Yep Shuggie Otis made this song originally.
The brothers Johnson cover of this song is fire I'm sure them n the o.g shuggie Otis would be proud
ruclips.net/video/Q59uLvvZWdM/видео.htmlsi=YE4R5rVovEnuZfwl
That dang H&M commercial brought me here. Geesh it's sooooo dope. I feel so free and in a place of bliss when I hear the music. This is music!!🙌🏾
Niiicceee, love, love this version. Loved Brothers Johnson version too but this is different and lovely as well. This girl is very very very very very GREAT !!!!!
I second that!
This is the only cover of the original Shuggie Otis song that I like at ALL.
only 4.5 verys from me... I saw a slight need for improvement ;-p
oh wow didn't even know bros johnson covered this.
+joe flores, oh yea I loved the Bros Johnson version as well---"thunder thumbs" Louis and "lighting licks" George. LOL
I love the original, so I was sceptical, but dang this girl did the song justice, l love it. 😉😃
This was actually a Suggie Otis original, then Brothers Johnson. Yuna does a great job as well!!!!
This is a wonderful cover that I JUST discovered (23 JUL 2021).
I had a exhausting day ... came home and switched on to RUclips drinking tea and i found Yuna and her beautiful awsome and soothing song... loved it...strawberry letter 23...🍓✉23
Exactly what I'm doing now but coffee instead of tea
One thing that i like about Yuna is that every time she covers a song she has her own style of covering instead of sounding like the original artist that sang the song.
It is absolutely brilliant!
Well...about that...If you check out the original by Shuggie Otis (the more popular Brothers Johnson version is actually a cover) you'll find that her style and Shuggie's are very much aligned...
That was a damn search for this song. Not in spotify and shazam didnt had any succes. Finally found it! great!
glad u did...enjoy!
the original version of this song : shuggie otis in spotify
sara carmona Yes thanks, I just love this version.
R Minderhoud Hi there, next time if you looking for some great music and you dont know artist download from google shop on your smart phone applictaion Shazam, they will tell you 100%.Good luck
Tomasz Hoffmann try it yourself. shazam didn't recognise it.
Such an amazing rendition.... she is so talented.
Same here... H&M commercial... I love this rendition. I think I may do one too
Thank you, Warren.
Well, if no one else will...
Hello, my love
I heard a kiss from you... Red magic satin playing near, too
All through the morning rain I gaze - the sun doesn't shine -
Rainbows and waterfalls run through my mind
In the garden - I see west Purple shower, bells and tea
Orange birds and river cousins dressed in green
Pretty music I hear - so happy and loud
Blue flower echo from a cherry cloud
Feel sunshine sparkle pink and blue
Playgrounds will laugh if you try to ask, is it cool?
If you arrive and don't see me I'm going to be with my baby
I am free - flying in her arms, over the sea
Stained window, yellow candy screen
See speakers of kite - with velvet roses diggin' freedom flight
A present from you - Strawberry letter 22 The music plays, I sit in for a few
thx!
Andrew Gore was
I'm still listen to this song in the morning.... make me excited go to work... hahah
nope

looks like the western media have done a good job brainwashing you @Kristie Lee Mobley

She managed to beautifully make this song her own while still keeping elements of the original. This isn't easy, well done.
Yuna tends to own every song she covered.... Nirvana, Incubus's I miss you, Drake's Hold on we're..., Beatles(Savage s/track), Aulani's theme, & of course Frank Ocean's....
xm mal YASSS..Agreedddd😈
First time coming across Yuna ... ummm what rock have I been under?! She is AMAZING her voice is literal honey and boy can she cover a song!!!! The talent is in abundance girl! Modest and pure talent
love her rendition of Strawberry Letter 23
I'm so glad I found. this while smoking a nice joint at night, it's absolutely wonderful music!
I love this version, beautiful voice.
OMG!!! I WAS GOING CRAZY TO FIND THIS SONG!!! IM SOOO HAPPY NOW~!!!
glad u found it!!
Thank God for the H&M commercial. Her persona in her music is like bright colors, sunshine I don't know but it's really refreshing.
this.
What an amazingly talented singer. Malaysia boleh!
Wow ! What a great voice !!! I was listening to orriginal version bud this is just big WOW !
This song is so sensual! It reminds me of summer and finding a love
Shuggie can smile at this wherever he is. She did the song justice. xx
OMG how did I miss this?
This version does justice. Much love to everyone.
I loved this song when the Brothers Johnson did it and absolutely adore it now that Yuna has done it! Incredible!
I believe you will also like the original version of this song by Shuggie Otis, with him singing and playing.
Yuna will always be my fav Malaysian artist
Yes and honestly for me, she is the best International Malaysian singer !
this song is just good vibes!
Whoa I don't know why I never thought how cool female vocals would be on this but this is incredibly natural. Awesome
Awesome!!! Thank you for posting this. I couldn't find this song ANYWHERE. Not on iTunes, Apple Music, Google Play Music or Spotify even.
ur welks man, enjoy!
Absolutely amazing! I've been a fan of Yuna for awhile now. She constantly slays..
I truly love this song. It really should be available on iTunes!
Heard this on the H&M commercial first and found this on youtube a few weeks ago, i can't stop listening to it! i can't wait to buy her album when it comes out in september :)
I was trying to find this song for the longest😩 heard it on a commercial and fell in love😍
Can't get enough of this right now... Pure summer jam! Get it on iTunes quickly please!
I've been searching for this since high school.
I luv the old school sound that this song has!! Yuna is awesome!!
I love this song and Yuna singing it is a blessing.
OMG!! my favourite song,keep it up dear yuna....
Her voice is amazing!
you should look up lullabies by her as well...never gets old, even after 2 years.
She really did this nice. Hard song to cover. Can't sleep on her music anymore!
Carla cobb YASSSS 🔥🔥🔥
I thought the original couldn't be beat, but hot DAMN is this beautiful
Got here from Thundercat's favorite basslines. Excellent cover. It still has the original vibes, while at the same time, uniquely Yuna
Great cover of the Shuggie Otis song. Thumbs up!
Just WOW, Yuna! Thank you for sharing this.
This song is so chill! I want all mall play this song all day and I don't regret!
Beautiful cover💞
can't wait til this is released on Yuna's new lp/cd. tight well thought out remake. she does not compromise.
what a fantastic cover
She did.. very well. Nice job great voice!
My fav reprise of all time.
Interesting twist on one of my favorites. Luna's covers are always surprisingly good.
it's YUNA not LUNA :-')
haa
Oops, lol. Thank you for pointing that out. :-p
Luna Moonlight
Shuggie Otis 1971 original is so pretty, and Brothers Johnson 1977 remake is simply spectacular. This version really isn't awful, it's just different... and in my opinion it's far better than the 2010 Akon cover that made my ears bleed.
+Angel Deville Love Otis for creating this masterpiece , but many seem to agree that Yuna's version is the best , even better than the original.
Shuggie otis
I couldn’t listen to more than a few seconds of Akon’s version. That should be labeled an Atrocity! I love this version, though.
Brittanie Jones YASSS
sarah aleya Yuna's version is sweet and nice... But isn't more iconic than The Brothers Johnson version.
I remember, when on TV - H&M ads , model , and this masterpiece 🔥🔥🔥 still loving it
Awesome song, as I heard I fell in love, such a beautiful cover👍
her original stuff is even better!
damn this is a badass cover her voice is so soft and shes killing it fucking badass
Who still hear this song March 2018?I'm from KL Malaysian. I'm proud with you Yuna. Her voice is amazing. I love this version
she put a whole new spin on this thing. Go Yuna
I like this version too!!!
Nice song. Tupac Shakur brought me here. He had a single with this melody too.
Always loved this song. Love Yuna's cover version.
Love Earth, Wind and Fire!! Please do more FUNk covers!! This is amazing!!
One of the rare times the cover surpasses the original, in my humble opinion! :)
+Felix Vasquez Exactly
+sarah aleya 😄
NO Shuggie Otis’s version is untouchable
He probly meant the Brothers Johnson, sadly, most ppl don't even know about Shuggie
Felix Vasquez that’s a bold statement, my friend.
I do not often consider covers to be better than their originals but this is a way better rendition of the song.
Aneesh Gupta it's nice but better fuck no
I agree…wish I could add this to my play list but not on anywhere
Never heard of her before, but heard the song on the H & M ad, sounds a bit 60-ish, but it has took my fancy, had to hunt down who sang it, it brought me here..
screwutoob screwgoogol this is originally by shuggie otis, then covered by brothers johnson. came out in 1977.
Romulus - original by Shuggie was released in 71.
Brothers Johnson ... one of my favorites back in the 70s back when I was merely 18.
Yes she did the darn thing two thumbs up
SIMPLY DOPE!!!
Great cover, really enjoying listening to this! Have not heard of this artist before so really glad I stumbled upon the H&M commercial.
you should really check out her debut album...it's ALL good.
Nice rendition, right here: I can dig it...!
Love This Cover Of This Oldie!! xx
This needs to hit iTunes quick
July 19..still addicted..awesome
A singer without today's uniform ear torment pitch. Beautiful voice and sensibility.
So groovy...
Magnífico cover!! Muy elegante!!
Es posible Pero no te equivoques
Just heard this song in a commercial. I sometimes get goosebumps when I hear a good song. Got them BAD when I heard this...lol Nice song. Loved the original.
I don't hate it. It's interesting. I typically don't like covers. You have to truly make it your own for me to like it. I feel she did that.
her voice is beautiful
still listening in 2020 anyone????
Me in 2021😍🥰
and 2022
2023!
2024
April 2023
Really good cover! I think the little psychedelic solo bit should’ve been mixed louder, I love that piece and is definitely an attraction of the song. Really great, though, feels so modern and does something interesting with it
Love it!!!From Malaysia. 🙆❤
Its on a loop.....can't stop playing it. Thanks Warren
ur welcome!
Talents are inserted by God into human beings regardless of race n religion. Yuna has done Justice to the song, she beautifies it with her soothing fresh voice. She is a real deal.
THAT VOICE!
Lovely voice!
