My verdict: I LOVE the song, and I really like the video (and watching the girls do their thing together again) a LOT. (Hey, it’s still early, I can still get away with that as an excuse, right?) Michelle Williams – Say Yes ft. Okay, so I probably missed that last part. So, now I’m a bit confused, and I re-read the title of the video, and yep it clearly states ‘Michelle Williams featuring Beyonce and Kelly Rowland – Say Yes’.

And I’m not talking about backing vocals kinda singing, but they’re actually singing in turns as if I am watching a Destiny’s Child video. So, as I’m watching the video on YouTube, already singing along to it after a few bars, I am suddenly pleasantly surprised to see Beyonce and Kelly Rowland (not only making an appearance in the video, but) singing in the video too. Second of all it has me doing some serious head bopping to the beat and some dancing-while-I’m-typing-moves, which (to me) is a guarantee that this is a hit, if I’m doing it while listening to it for the first time! It’s a form of hope and positive energy (or mantra if you will) that flows from the words as they leave your lips. The lyrics are not that hard to remember and I feel some sort of empowerment when I sing along too. I especially enjoy it when a (gospel) song inspires me to sing along. The song has this African vibe and rhythm which makes it really catchy and encourages you to dance along to it. It’s not your ‘typical’ type of gospel song (if there is such a thing) at least, not if gospel to you means slow and undanceable (is that even a word?) music. So the fact that this is a gospel song, gives it that little bit of extra for me.

Yes, because I actually really enjoy songs with a message and I enjoy listening to gospel songs. No, because music is music and lyrics (however important) are lyrics. Does it make any difference to me that is is a gospel song? Yes and no. Now, did I know it was going to be a gospel song before I listened to it? Nope.

It’s about 7am in the morning and I’m listening to some music (as I do every morning) to get myself going, and the second song I’m listening to today is this new release an upbeat gospel song by Michelle Williams (former Destiny’s Child member), called ‘Say Yes’.
