I Want You
Common (ft. will.i.am)
Finding Forever
2007

Okay.

So, not the greatest song of all time (it features a member of The Black Eyed Peas and, I've got to say, that the album art seriously creeps me out), BUT this song has been stuck in my head since I heard it on Sunday night (on CSI: Miami, of all things, haha). 

I like Common.  He falls in the category of rap I tend to enjoy...conscious, but not devoid of intensity.  I remember when this album came out...I got stuck on "Drivin' Me Wild" featuring Lily Allen.

What gets me is that shwah shwah that follows every "I want you"...like I kind of forget the rest of the song and that is the part that stays with me...I could listen to the first 45 seconds over and over again.

I could have faked it and posted something else, but this song is this week.

So I love it.
And I love that he got announced to play at Osheaga this morning.
And I'm so so so happy that you posted honestly.
