“My heart only ever had one thought, one want. One need. Despite all, in spite of all...All my heart has ever wanted is you.”

― Stephanie Laurens

My featured artist this morning is the multi-talented and brilliant Jacob Banks was born in Nigeria and relocated to Birmingham, England. He is new to me and definitely an original fresh sound that echoes an urban earthy blues. His music is typically considered a R&B, Soul, and Hip-Hop genre. 

The song selected is titled "Dear Simone". It is the third track on his 2013 album titled "The Monologue. The song was uploaded on YouTube by Miri Biton and published on August 16, 2017

At little about the artists found on their website: http://www.mrjacobbanks.com/content/about
"Born in Nigeria, Jacob Banks moved to Birmingham in England at the age of 13. Not short of talent, the Brit dabbled in all forms of the creative arts and began singing, playing guitar, and writing songs at the age of 20. A music lover first and foremost, Banks got his start at open mic nights and quickly garnered a following for his commanding vocal presence and daringly intimate songwriting. His music features richly textured beats, with its 808s and synth play, African inspired grooves and a soulful disposition that culminates in an unstoppable new sound. Banks debuted with his EP The Monologue, earning feverish acclaim that saw him supporting artists such as Emeli Sandé, Sam Smith and Alicia Keys on tour around the U.K. Now, at work on his Interscope Records debut (the follow-up to self-released EP The Paradox), Banks hopes to reenergize soul music for a new generation hoping to be their solace in hard times and a battery pack on a slow Monday morning.”

I love this song!

"Dr. Simone"

Jacob Banks

Dear simone, I'm all alone,

And I need you here, to wipe my tears away

Dear simone, where have you been?

Cause I need you near, cause I'm drowning in my fear

So I'm driving down this road,

With no place, no place to go

Nothing but memories,

Only you and I, only you and I will ever know

Tears falling down my face,

Used to be tears of joy,

You took my lovin away,

Oh, dear simone, I'm all alone

And I need you here,

To wipe my tears away

Dear simone, where have you been?

Cause I need you near, cause I'm drowning in my fear

Paying the falls in my end

The soul is mend, here I stand for you baby

What's in life pass me by

Only if you were by my side

I tried everything I should

I gave everything I could to you baby

Pouring my words up to the sky

Oh, I'm not gonna say goodbye

So if you ever change your mind up baby

Just call me, call me babe, call me to you darling

I've waiting, waiting, waiting for you, for you, my baby

Waiting for you, I'm all alone,

And I need you here,

To wipe my fucking tears away

Dear simone, where have you been?

Man I need you near, because I'm drownin in my fuckin fears

Dear simone, I'm all alone,

And I need you here,

To wipe my fucking tears away

Dear simone, where have you been?

Oh I need you here

To wipe my fucking tear away.

I hope you like this selection as much as I do and have a blessed evening or morning. Thank you for your continued support. Remember music is a language and these are my thoughts tonight.

Peace and Love always
