Snoh Aalegra – Emotional

Snoh Aalegra – Emotional. Snoh Aalegra was only 9 years old when she started singing and writing songs all by her self, behind the closed doors of her bedroom. She loved to perform her music and would take any opportunity to show of her talent, whether it was for her classmates at school or family gatherings at home. She even won a local talent show in her Swedish hometown, performing one of the first songs she ever wrote. Despite her young age, she felt that music played a very significant role in her life and she decided to pursue it all the way. At 14 she did her first signing to a major music publishing company and spent majority of her weekends and after school hours in the studio. A lot has happened since then and the road has been very rocky going through the same growing pains most people do in the music industry is in fact what brought her to where she is today. For the past two years she has been working very closely with music producer No ID. Together they have developed a very specific and unique sound. Her raspy and soul driven vocals are a perfect marriage with the No ID production that borrows elements from a lot of different genres and tie them all together in a true hip hop spirit.

Opening with a brief blast of horns, the almighty RZA channels the deepest of grooves on this gorgeous arrangement of strings, whistles, keys and drums as Snoh reveals the perfect pre-Valentine tale. ‘You don’t need to tell me, I know it’s love, cos it hurts’. With fans including Prince and Common, the Wu-Tang producer is the latest in a long-line of admirers of Snoh, who is signed to No I.D aka the Godfather of Chicago Hip Hop. “I met RZA over a year ago at Nile Rodgers Grammy party, I have so much respect for him as a producer and artist and I’ve always loved his vibe as a person,” says the 5’10 Swedish/ Persian singer with the most swoonsome voice ever. “We spoke about working and, magically one year after, it happened in the most unexpected way! This song represents exactly what I’m going through at this very moment in my life.”

Snoh Aalegra – Emotional Lyrics:
[Sample]
I wanna love him
But what if he hurts me? Oh
[Verse 1]
Faith like broken hearts
Warm like mothers arms
Holding me close in the dead of the dark
You’re fake like false alarms
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I’ve been holding on for way too long
I can feel the fever coming on
Oh
[Chorus]
So what if I’m emotional?
I feel it in my bitter bones
Oooh I need somebody to hold me
Oooh I need your body to tell me I’m the only one
Oh, can anybody help me now?
Cause I’m on on a high that’s coming down
Ooh I need somebody to hold me
You don’t need to tell me, I know that it’s love, cause it hurts
[Sample]
[Verse 2]
Dress my open wounds
I’m not over you
I’m just a puppet you played for a fool
Your sxx is my abuse
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I’ve been holdin’ on for way too long
But I can feel the fever coming on, oh Lord
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Baby please I need you darling
I’m bleeding darling
I know that it’s love
[Pre-Chorus 3]
So what if I’m delusional?
Don’t wanna face it any more, no no
[Outro]
Oooh I need somebody to hold me
You don’t need to tell me, I know that it’s love, cause it hurts
