Common - The Light
"The Light" is the Grammy-nominated second single off Common's 2000 album Like Water for Chocolate. It is produced by Jay Dee and features keyboards performed by James Poyser. It samples "Open Your Eyes" as performed by Bobby Caldwell and the drums from "You're Getting a Little too Smart" by the The Detroit Emeralds. Framed as a love letter, it is a confession of Common's love for a woman whom many believe to have been his girlfriend at the time, Erykah Badu. Cythia Fuchs of PopMatters describes it as a "charming, tender, and undeniably soulful declaration of affection and respect." A music video directed by Nzingha Stewart features Common, Erykah Badu and "recognizable sensual delights" including "a homemade Minnie Ripperton cassette, a mango, a pink lava lamp and a deeply green water-beaded leaf.

Common Denominator - Justin Bieber [With Lyrics, Studio Version]
I love this song and Justin Bieber (: No copyright infringement intended. LYRICS: Just a fraction of your love Fills the air And I fall in love with you All over again Ooh You're the light that feeds the sun In my world I'd face a thousand years of pain For my girl Out of all the things in life That I could fear The only thing that would hurt me Is if you weren't here Woah I don't want to go back To just being one half of the equation Do you understand what I'm sayin'? Girl without you I'm lost Can't fix this compass at heart Between me and love You're the common denominator oh, oh, ohh, oh You're the common denominator oh, oh, ohh, oh Before your love was low Playing girls was my high You changed the game now I put my cot in the side When broken hearts rise up to say Love is a lie You and I would stand to be loves reply, yeah Out of all the things in life That I could fear, yeah The only thing that would hurt me Is if you weren't here, here, here, yeah Yeeahh [Favorite part? Ohh yeaah ;)] I don't want to go back To just being one half of the equation Do you understand what I'm sayin'? Girl without you I'm lost Can't fix this compass at heart Between me and love You're the common denominator, oh, oh, ohh, oh You're the common denominator, oh, oh, ohh, oh I can't imagine life Without your touch And every kiss that you give You fill me up And to all the heart it can Jealous females hatin I'ma hold it down for you You, woah, oh woah You're the Common denominator Oh, yeah <b>...</b>

Common Feat. Talib Kweli & Sadat X - 1999
LP "Soundbombing Vol. 2" compilation released in 1999 Common (originally Common Sense) was a highly influential figure in rap's underground during the '90s, keeping the sophisticated lyrical technique and flowing syncopations of jazz-rap alive in an era when commercial gangsta rap was threatening to obliterate everything in its path. His literate, intelligent, nimbly performed rhymes and political consciousness certainly didn't fit the fashions of the moment, but he was able to win a devoted cult audience. By the late '90s, a substantial underground movement had set about reviving the bohemian sensibility of alternative rap, and Common finally started to receive wider recognition as a creative force. Not only were his albums praised by critics, but he was able to sign with a major label that guaranteed him more exposure than ever before. Common was born Lonnie Rashied Lynn on the South Side of Chicago, an area not exactly noted for its fertile hip-hop scene. Nonetheless, he honed his skills to the point where -- performing as Common Sense -- he was able to catch his first break, winning The Source magazine's Unsigned Hype contest. He debuted in 1992 with the single "Take It EZ," which appeared on his Combat-released debut album, Can I Borrow a Dollar?; further singles "Breaker 1/9" and "Soul by the Pound" helped establish his reputation in the hip-hop underground, although some critics complained about the record's occasional misogynistic undertones.
