Sounds Like Love

Not the look of love. Not the smell, or the touch. The sound of love gets overlooked these days -- when was the last time you heard a love song on the radio? But sound catalyzes and sparks feelings, too. Sounds from a human voice tell us so much. Tones don't lie, even if words do sometimes. It is no accident that hearing is the last sense to leave us when we die. It is the tones in the sound from another that can convey that flowing state of being we call 'love' more powerfully than anything else. For your Valentine's Day, here's pure tone and melody, no words to get in the way, in this slow grooving instrumental from the late, great J Dilla , "Sounds Like Love".
