Vomaakte onvolmaakhede: oor 'n legende.

John Legend het hierdie stuk nou die aand gesing in 'n program wat ons op BVN bekyk het. Die onderhoudvoerder noem hom, nog maar 35 jaar oud, al 'n legende...

'n Boeiende liefdeslied wat op YouTube meer as 25 miljoen trefslae gekry het. En dit is maar een weergawe. 'n Ander een kry meer as drie miljoen trefslae. 

Wanneer 'n lirikus sy liefde vir die ander een se "perfect imperfections" besing weet hy wat liefde is. 
Duidelik resoneer die lied met miljoene mense se liefdeservaring. 

Hy kom later vanjaar ook Suid-Afrika toe. 

Hier is die woorde en 'n snit: 

"All Of Me"

[Verse 1:]
What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You've got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright

[Pre-Chorus:]
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

[Verse 2:]
How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, it's ringing, in my head for you

[Pre-Chorus:]
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

[Bridge:]
Give me all of you
Cards on the table, we're both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it's hard

[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you

I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh
