Really Love (D'Angelo song)
Much of the song was completed as early as 2007, when Questlove leaked snippets of the track to Australian radio station Triple J. The song was completed and released in December 2014, with D'Angelo handling the production himself. "Really Love" has received universal acclaim from critics. Walter Biggins of "Glide" magazine praised the song's lyrics and production as well as D'Angelo's vocals, which Biggins referred to as "what [listeners have] been missing for 14 years". Sasha Frere-Jones of "The New Yorker" referred to it as "a slow-burning song"; while Jon Pareles and Jon Carmanica of "The New York Times" complimented the song's "responsive string arrangement behind its declaration of affection". D'Angelo performed "Really Love" live for the first time at the House of Blues on July 4, 2012, two years before its official release. On January 31, 2015, he performed the song on "Saturday Night Live". No official music video was created for the song; however, an official video featuring the song's audio became available in December 2014.
