I don't know if it's humanly possible to sing better than this. Just unbelievable. Even his backup singers gave him stank-face at one point. Mad respect for Allen Stone. I've been a big fan for 4 years now and I'm always blown away by his talent when I come across a new performance like this one. Not sure why he's not THE benchmark for artistry and vocal mastery. But for some reason the masses want to hear auto-tune-quality singers, daily. It's mind-boggling. Thanks for everything you do, Allen.
After my 50th listen to this song I've decided he's this generations Michael McDonald or Michael Bolton. That soul is undeniable. He's got a fan for life!
He got screwed over by a manager and record company. That’s why he handles all his own stuff. Like the other comments he doesn’t want to have to sell out to the machine.
All he's doing with these live videos of the songs from Building Balance is making me love the songs more. I would download every version if it was available.
Lyrics I've got a brown-eyed lover On the other side of town I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) She's got me upside tongue-tied Twisted all around I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) Well, I don't know I can't tell Will this last Or just come and go? It came so fast And my feet feel cold But my mind is for sure And my heart remains Oh, she's got everything you want Wardrobe bought at the thrift shop And all my friends adore her She reminds me of my mother She wonders how my day went And don't care about my paychecks Well, I don't wanna keep my baby waiting I've got a brown-eyed lover On the other side of town I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) She's got me upside tongue-tied Twisted all around I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) Oh, let me think What if she finds a man Who's got so much more time For her than me on his hands? That don't make sense Why would she wait so long Just to run away? Oh, she's got everything you want Let's me pick the restaurants And all my friends adore her And I can still afford her She wishes I'd stop worrying About where my next paycheck is Well, I don't wanna keep my baby waiting I've got a brown-eyed lover On the other side of town I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) She's got me upside tongue-tied Twisted all around I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) I've got a brown-eyed lover On the other side of town I don't wanna keep her waiting, ye (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) She's got me upside tongue-tied Twisted all around I don't wanna keep her waiting I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting) I don't wanna keep her waiting
This is my favorite version of this song! The outstanding background vocalists, the acoustic & intimate setting, I just love it all 💙 What a Soulful Perfection!
Allen... You are truly my inspiration. Everyday since I heard you for the first time! My dream is to sing with you! Live on stage or in the studio!!! Maybe my prayers will be heard one day🙏🏽
I love that I have found your music and I love that you are not as well known as you deserve to be (selfishly) because I worry if those big companies get a hold of your amazing talent they would destroy it. So sorry but I would hate to lose your amazing talent to mainstream music. You are such a breath of fresh air! Love your music!!!
You are so fucking amazing! I got to see you with Train and Goo Goo Dolls in PA this summer, I wish your set was longer!! Definitely one of my favorites ever, love you and your voice!!!

I'm going to try to be as good! Just wait and follow
I love singing this song to my blue eyed wife!
David Sizemore lol
Might end up with a black eye.😠
@@vancerants Indeed
That's like calling out another woman's name in your sleep lol
LMEAO so in other words your wife is cool with you cheating on her, huh? NICE!
he's just allen stone, let's not compare him to anyone else.....
this whole album never gets old. such raw talent
Timeless music is the greatest! 🙂
Facts, top to bottom it's incredible.
the original makes me so hype that i feel like punching someone everytime, while this version makes we wanna hug everyone and cry at the same time
Clarissa L I feel this comment so much
Lol...I get super hype off the original version too.
This is super relatable haha
ALL and I mean ALL of his live performances are phenomenal. Soul, beauty, sadness, all combined. He is going to be a legend. ❤
After my 50th listen to this song I've decided he's this generations Michael McDonald or Michael Bolton. That soul is undeniable. He's got a fan for life!
i love how the backup singer is impressed
How is Allen Stone not more commercially successful at this point? Coldest range in the game.
Because he's real music, which isn't appreciated much these days...but he's amazing!
independent artist, he aint selling his soul bruh, just buy his tix, go to his shows and support this man. :D
He got screwed over by a manager and record company. That’s why he handles all his own stuff. Like the other comments he doesn’t want to have to sell out to the machine.
Na i dont want him to be because then they might want to change him let him stay where he is so ppl who love real music can enjoy him
This song will forever be amazing.
If I didn't see him,bI would think this was a black brother. Loving his music, and I'm almost 70.
All he's doing with these live videos of the songs from Building Balance is making me love the songs more. I would download every version if it was available.
Bri Johnson get RUclips music and you can
Check out his new album ‘Apart’. It features acoustic versions of some of his songs and this one is on it. It’s slightly different but just as good.
This generation "Stevie Wonder"!!!
Yo I do not understand why these videos don’t have millions of views. This is amazing music.
The guys reaction @3:20 lol I felt the same bro . Allen's voice is powerful
Hands down the BEST white musician I ever heard...
Lyrics
I've got a brown-eyed lover
On the other side of town
I don't wanna keep her waiting
(I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
She's got me upside tongue-tied
Twisted all around
I don't wanna keep her waiting
(I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
Well, I don't know
I can't tell
Will this last
Or just come and go?
It came so fast
And my feet feel cold
But my mind is for sure
And my heart remains
Oh, she's got everything you want
Wardrobe bought at the thrift shop
And all my friends adore her
She reminds me of my mother
She wonders how my day went
And don't care about my paychecks
Well, I don't wanna keep my baby waiting
I've got a brown-eyed lover
On the other side of town
I don't wanna keep her waiting
(I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
She's got me upside tongue-tied
Twisted all around
I don't wanna keep her waiting
(I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
Oh, let me think
What if she finds a man
Who's got so much more time
For her than me on his hands?
That don't make sense
Why would she wait so long
Just to run away?
Oh, she's got everything you want
Let's me pick the restaurants
And all my friends adore her
And I can still afford her
She wishes I'd stop worrying
About where my next paycheck is
Well, I don't wanna keep my baby waiting
I've got a brown-eyed lover
On the other side of town
I don't wanna keep her waiting
(I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
She's got me upside tongue-tied
Twisted all around
I don't wanna keep her waiting
(I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
I've got a brown-eyed lover
On the other side of town
I don't wanna keep her waiting, ye
(I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
She's got me upside tongue-tied
Twisted all around
I don't wanna keep her waiting
I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
I don't wanna keep her waiting (I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)
I don't wanna keep her waiting
Thanks for adding the lyrics!! Love it!
Beautiful voice. Just now discovering his music. Love it.
Thank the lord for blessing us with Allen Stone 💕

Brown Eyed Lover is what I used to to tell my wife when she asked where I want to put it. Love the song
This is better than the album version. This boi the truth.
One of my favorite Allen Stone songs
Genius. All of it...a well-crafted song, killer vocals, stripped down to perfection.
I love that I have found your music and I love that you are not as well known as you deserve to be (selfishly) because I worry if those big companies get a hold of your amazing talent they would destroy it. So sorry but I would hate to lose your amazing talent to mainstream music. You are such a breath of fresh air! Love your music!!!
