Acapella by Kelis, Music Lyrics and Video
Acapella is the official first single from Kelis’ fifth studio album titled “Flesh Tone”. The minimal dance track is produced by David Guetta.
“I was asked if I would ever put another album out,” Kelis writes on her site. “I suppose people assumed after the baby and divorce and all the time I took off (went to culinary school during my break which was amazing and another conversation) that it would be on to motherhood for me… My album is pretty much done. I signed a new deal and I’m madly in love with life and ready to share something with you.”
Nice to see her getting another shot and branching out even more, musically, after being dropped by Jive.
The music video for the song was filmed in the first week of March 2010 by a British production team consisting of portrait and fashion photographer John “Rankin” Waddell and musical director Chris Cottam. The music video will be released in March 29.

Kelis - Acapella Lyrics
I was walking, was living
My melody was acapella
There’s a beat I was missing
No tune, or a scale, I could play
The sound in the distance
No orchestra playing together
Like a boat out to sea,
The silence was too deafening!
So come and revive me
I can’t feel my heartbeat
Just me surviving alone
(Chorus)
Before you,
My whole life was acapella!
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing
Before you,
My whole life was acapella!
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing
Everything was the same
One color was just like the others
An assembly routine
My memories were all black and white
Till I stopped over-thinking
Decided to draw back the curtains
And I cleared all the cobwebs
And began to let in the light
So come and revive me
I can’t feel my heartbeat
Just me surviving alone
(Chorus)
Before you,
My whole life was acapella!
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing
Before you,
My whole life was acapella!
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing
(Bridge 3X)
You are the drum in my heart beat
Bass and guitar lead
Stuck on the notes you play
My heart that you play on
Grab like a crayon
I can’t walk away
(Chorus 2X)
Before you,
My whole life was acapella!
