about

“Dance with You” features the Grammy winning songstress Joss Stone singing in Mandingo while celebrating nature, dance, and music as she beckons to Dance with You. The song features the unique sound of the Kora along with the Udu drum, a metal cylindrical pot used in ceremonial music of the Igbo people of Nigeria. Together they create the groove and underpinnings for the drums and bass to make you dance.

lyrics

Dance with you 3:07
Written by Michael Wimberly, Joss Stone, Jonathan Joseph, Foday Musa Suso)

[Chorus] in Mandingo

Verse
I pour my time into the sea
Let go of my head and let it fly free
I’ll be beautifully
turning and twisting to the sound of the kora’s melody

Morning wakes me
Evening soothes me - it lets my soul be

[Chorus]

Heads to the earth - gaze to the sky Drink of the Nile - arms open wide
I call to you Yemenja

[Chorus]

[Chant]
Ney no na ney Ney ney no na ney Ney no na ney Ney ney no na ney Ney no na ney Ney ney no na ney
[Chorus] (extended)

Pray for me kora
Come on be
Balafon just be with me
I just love the sound And I want to be free...To dance with you

Energy time maddafakkas! This is hard hitting free jazz for the revolution. Listening to this you could believe it might actually happen! Anyone who thinks Jazz is for old folks should give this a spin. It couldn’t be more contemporary to my ears. Crinklechips
