The makings of you Add a little sugar, honeysuckle and A great, big expression of happiness Boy, you couldn't miss with a dozen roses Such would astound you The joy of children laughing around you These are the makings of you It is true, the makings of you The righteous way to go Little one would know Or believe if I told them so You're second to none The love of all mankind Should reflect some sign Of these words I've tried to recite They are close, but not quite Almost impossible to do Reciting the makings of you The righteous way to go Little one would know Or believe if I told them so You're second to none The love of all mankind Should reflect some sign Of these words I've tried to recite They are close, but not quite Almost impossible to do Reciting the makings of you

SOUL SUGAR featuring LEO CARMICHAEL
"The makings of you"

Recorded in between France and Jamaica, “The makings of you”, third single from Soul Sugar's forthcoming album scheduled for release on March 15th, sees the return of long time collaborator Leo Carmichael, delivering an outstanding vocal performance on this Curtis Mayfield cover.
The backing track is a lush and tight 70's sounding reggae groove drenched in soul harmonies and full of analog vibes, featuring an impeccable performance and finest musicianship by. Tim, Yvo and Guillaume. Except vintage soulful reggae of the highest order.
