corrine bailey rae “i’d do it all again”

when she floated in like a butterfly
with like a star, i fell in love with her voice.
the more i listened & learned about her
i fell in love with her as a lyricist and a musician.

one morning, i heard on the news that
she’d lost the love of her life.
her husband of 8 years died suddenly.
death by “misadventure”.
then she vanished. understandably so.
She did a lovely interview with The Guardian,
discussing what’s been going on in her life,
her loss, and her return to music.

i’m glad she’s back with The Sea.
I particularly like i’d do it all again.
full of pain and healing. sadness and light.
this video proves why some songs
just NEED to be heard live.

welcome back Mrs. Bailey Rae.
so glad you’re here.
