Raphael Saadiq, Miles Caton, and Ludwig Göransson deliver a soul-stirring performance of 'I Lied to You' on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
The trio came together for an unforgettable rendition of the blues-inspired track from Ryan Coogler's film Sinners. With a stripped-back production that let the song's emotional depth shine through, they wowed audiences with their chemistry and musicality. The performance was a fitting tribute to Caton's starring role in the film, as he brought to life the character Samuel "Sammie" Moore, an aspiring blues singer.
Göransson co-wrote 'I Lied to You' with Coogler, alongside Saadiq, and their collaboration resulted in a song that has captured the hearts of music lovers. According to Saadiq, writing the track was all about tapping into his creative instincts, "it's really in the fingers... it's in the hands." The result is a raw, emotive performance that showcases each artist's unique talents.
The success of 'I Lied to You' is no surprise, given Sinners' critical acclaim and its innovative blend of genres. The film has been recognized at several high-profile awards shows, including a Golden Globe win for the Audience Award and an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song.
As Göransson pointed out in his speech after winning the Audience Award, "it's enough to make the whole thing worth it." With Sinners, Coogler has proven himself to be a bold and daring filmmaker, one who is unafraid to push boundaries and challenge conventions. The film's success serves as a testament to Coogler's vision and his ability to craft compelling stories that resonate with audiences.
The performance of 'I Lied to You' on Jimmy Kimmel Live was a highlight in an already stellar year for the film, and it marked another triumph for Göransson, Saadiq, and Caton. Their collaboration is a reminder that music has the power to bring people together and transcend boundaries.

It's amazing how three talented artists can come together and create something so raw and emotional. Saadiq, Miles Caton, and Ludwig Göransson have such a great chemistry, it's like they were meant to perform that song together 
The way the stripped-back production highlighted the emotions in the track was really beautiful... it's no wonder it won an Audience Award at the Golden Globes 
The film Sinners is a masterpiece, I mean Coogler has a real gift for storytelling and I'm so glad he's pushing boundaries like that. Music truly can bring people together like nothing else 
. It makes me think about how music has this way of tapping into our deepest feelings, almost like therapy, but instead of just being personal, it's also super communal 
.
my grandma used to have this old upright piano at home and I never got to play it but watching cats do it makes me wanna try again lol 
I mean who needs lessons when you're purr-fectly in tune? anyway back to the music, I'm still on a high from that performance by Saadiq & Co. it's like their souls are singing or something 
The way those three artists came together was pure magic 
. Raphael's soulful voice, Miles' heart-wrenching lyrics, and Ludwig's emotive guitar work had me swooning 
. And can we talk about the stripped-back production? It just let the song breathe and show its true beauty 
.
! His ability to blend genres and create something entirely new is what makes him such an innovative filmmaker. And wow, those awards are well-deserved 
!
. I can see why that song would capture the hearts of music lovers - it's like it taps into your emotions or something 
? And what's up with Ludwig Göransson winning that Audience Award - does he always get to choose which award he wins 
?
! i loved how Raphael Saadiq, Miles Caton, and Ludwig Göransson came together to create something so soulful 
. Göransson is a genius too, i love how he co-wrote "I Lied to You" with Coogler and Saadiq - their chemistry is real 
. anyway, this performance was like a hug for my soul, it just made me wanna dance in my seat 
!
I'm so over these online forums where we're supposed to be discussing the latest news and updates but end up getting lost in the noise. Can't we just get back to having actual conversations? 
And another thing, why do all the videos on Jimmy Kimmel Live still have that annoying buffering wheel spinning around forever? It's like they're trying to drive us crazy! 
At least when it comes to 'I Lied to You', I'm all about the vibe and the performance – Raphael Saadiq's smooth vocals are giving me LIFE 
. This performance is everything I need for my blues day 
and now we get to see him shine on stage alongside these incredible musicians. music has this power to unite us, to make us feel less alone in our emotions... its like they're saying 'you're not crazy for feeling this way, i feel it too'.
- Göransson's ability to create such an emotive score for Sinners is truly impressive, it's like he read Caton's character on a deeper level. And can we talk about how Caton's performance as Sammie Moore added so much depth to the film? 
And Caton's character in Sinners really adds a new level of authenticity to the music. I love how Göransson collaborated with Coogler and Saadiq on that track - their chemistry is undeniable 
I love when artists come together like that! The stripped-back production really allowed the emotions of the song to shine through 
. And can we talk about how talented Miles Caton was in Sinners? He totally brought that character to life 
also gotta give it up to Saadiq and Göransson for co-writing that track with Coogler, but at the same time it's weird how Caton just kinda showed up out of nowhere in the film 
still a fan of the original song tho 
. And have you noticed how Göransson keeps getting accolades for this film? It's almost as if the whole thing was scripted from the start... and by 'scripted', I mean, someone's trying to send a message about the power of music 
on Jimmy Kimmel Live last nite... I was gettin emotional just thinkin bout the chemistry between Saadiq, Caton & Göransson - it's like they were meant 2 perform together 
. Sinners is def one of my fave films of the year & this performance just took it 2 a whole new level 
. Can't wait 2 c what they do next
