My bro used to be internet friends with her on vine before she blew up. Idk I thought it was hella cool cause I was watching the video on repeat and he told me and showed me the messages. 🙃
I know this comment was a year ago and u probably don't want a reply but auto tune only has to cover for one point in a lyrical piece and while I agree that the point it assists is important some people are wonderful musicians that don't necessarily have nice voices like Post Malone his voice isn't all that great tbh but he is a beautiful song writer even if the beautiful part is the underlying tone he conveys with those words and not the words themselves. IDK I just thought I would respond because there are different things in music than a beautiful voice which can be hereditary.
I was disappointed that she didn’t sing the lyrics and only read/recited them. But her voice is pleasant and calming. I’ve only heard her sing so I found this interview to hear her speaking voice. I want to say it is her voice used on the Rod Wave ‘Street Runner’ record since it is a sample of her ‘Mixed Feelings’ record.
For me this song reflected me and a lot of kids and their lives. The first part most especially I could relate to "There was a time when I was alone, nowhere to go and no place to call home." I lived with my mom and my two younger sisters and I felt like my mom hated me. She would ignore me, make me feel like I wasn't even her daughter and I can't remember when she wasn't mad at me. She would constantly kick me out from 13-16 years old and I would sit outside on the apartment steps crying in the cold thinking that I didn't truly have a home. "My only friend was the man in the moon and even sometimes he would go away too." While I was sitting outside I would look at the sky and think that I should be glad that I wasn't going through worse like some other people in the world, which would kinda be like the sky being my friend and making me a little happier, but some days when I'm kicked out I'd just feel dread and I'd feel so drained that I couldn't even lift my head to look at the sky because I was just to sad to think about anything else, that reminded me of my "friend" or the sky going away. This song has a lot of different interpretations for everyone but maybe other people felt this way too.
You never grow up in neverland because it's heaven, he kills you then takes you there forever so captain hook tries to kill him and save you. Everyone there is dead.
Two years ago, me and my best friend sang and danced to this for a charity talent show at school. It feels like just yesterday that I did it. Thank you, Ruth, for making me happy. We won that talent show.
When she said Once Upon A Time I was soooo happy I was like OMG!!! I love that show and that is my FAVORITE season and I felt that every time I heard that song it was based on that season and now it's official!!
lost boy is my favorite song ever. it helps me when i feel lonely, i had to loos my friends and home and go to another country to live as a stranger. i listen to your song alot and i love your voice.
I wasn't gonna think too much of her even though I liked the song. But same Immediately I was like she's African I was like yuuup. I'm not even from the horn but I'm with her
I find the song sounds so much more sad but more beautiful when its like neverland is heaven and Peter Pan is an angel and he brings children that are close to death to neverland and that’s why they stay young
Followed her on vine ✅ Liked/downloaded songs before she was popular✅ Once upon a time Fan ✅ Ruth B has gotten me through some hard times and she (at least to me) is the most natural and REAL celeb there is. I mean, she looks like a normal person!
I knew this song was based off of Once Upon a time, it's one of my favorite shows and when I heard this song it reminded me of the show, especially the Story Brook part
I remember the first time I heard this was cause of Andrea Russett and then when I realized she was Habesha a year later. I almost cried out of happiness
i have connected so much sad emotions with this song ...i am not even abel to hear this song without knowing ...that i am about to cry afterwards. Its a beautifull song
I am doing a cover of this in May for my middle school chorus class and I now know the meaning behind it feel like I relate to the song a bit and that makes me happy
Thank ya Ruth, one for the Pink Floyd nod, and second for the song... It is timeless, and genuine, and flawless. My daughter and I love it. To hear it being sung to me from the backseat of our car, as we drive along.... it's an unbelievable moment for me as a dad. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for making a song like this, one that my family will treasure for ever! From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
ONCE UPON A TIME IS MY LIFE. and I love this song! I'm In acting classes and one of our play's was based on Peter Pan. and at the end I got a solo and sang this song!!!!
She is so beautiful
