I dont think we appreciate enough how hard it is to sing when crying, still he manages not only doing it perfectly but with an explosion of visceral emotion that goes out through his voice to land directly into our bones and soul 🖤 he’s a gift from idk where but im absolutely here for it
I discovered Sleep Token recently, and have been consumed by them ever since. I was looking up Hallelujah 'cause it's one of my favorite songs, and was very pleasantly surprised to see Vessel sing it. What an absolutely breathtaking performance with him and the vessellette!!! I'm getting emotional as I'm listening to them sing.
@@kylesteeden2212Both are possible. Vessel is so connected to his music that while performing it, he does cry. He puts everything into the songs that he sings.
Man hearing Vessel fighting to sing theough tears gets me. The emotion that man puts in to everything he does and experiences on stage is so incredible. I know there's pain in that voice but theres love too, and his love for what he does and those he does it for shines through.
There's a moment when she starts singing, when you can hear a pin drop anywhere in the room. It's the sound of chills hitting a thousand spines at once
This song is so perfect for Vessel’s vocal range. I can’t stop coming back to it over and over ❤️ the backing vocalist’s voice is absolutely gorgeous too.
@@dinosuarzr0ck827 not to take away from this performance by Vessel/Espera, and the band but this blows the original away for me: ruclips.net/video/kC0A7upwuKI/видео.html
It's been 20+ years to honestly say that someone finally did this song as much justice and grace as Buckley did. Cohen wrote it, Buckley perfected it, and I'll be danged if Vessel didn't just take that torch from the late, great Jeff Buckley.
WOW I've only recently discovered this exists and keep coming back to replay it as its just so good! I hope one day we get an official recording, their voices are so perfect together 😍 I wanna hear more!
Everything about this preformance was soul shattering, and i see many comments on here of things i was gonna say. But i haven't seen enough comments on the ending harmony, they blended the 2 voices sooo beautifully my entire body vibrated, the perfect fusion of voices
Which original? There are a gazillion versions of this song, and the original by Leonard Cohen was not nearly as much of a hit as some of the covers. (Rufus Wainright did it for Shrek, for example, so that tends to be the version people my age and younger are familiar with.)
I feel like its times like this, that Vessel really loves that mask. You can hear the pain in his voice, i know you could see it in his face if it was visible
This is an absolutely beautiful cover. ❤️ The only thing that would have made it better is if Vessel had sung Leonard Cohen's original final lines: "And even though it all went wrong, I'll stand before the lord of song with nothing on my tongue but Hallelujiah". Imagine how powerful that would feel coming from him!
I think Vessel's voice is perfect for this song. I hope one day he releases an official cover
Not positive, but think he used to sing it with Gemma Matthews when in Bristol.
He officially put out Hey Yeah by Outkast
The fact that there’s not an official cover of this is illegal
Im a 61 year old man and i just cant get enough of this band. Everything from the sound, the lyrics, and Vessels voice just takes me to anothet place.
Right there with ya bro
55 here. Same
52 and I'm obsessed with his voice! My poor husband is tortured by my playlist every time he gets in the car with me 😂
56 and YES! ❤️
59 here and spot on!
I held the tears in until they both started singing together.
Them tears came out at that moment 😊
Omgeee MEEEE TOOOO. It's beauty that's almost out of this world.
Omg I’m happy I’m not the only one
Her voice sent shivers down my spine.
Facts
110% percent
It made me cry instantly hahaha
@@Amadeusx89 makes me tear up everytime I listen to this, god damn
The way people react to his voice when he starts singing ✨
I cry almost every time like clockwork 😭🖤
Big token fan but the backing vocalist had me in tears
Her melody line was stunning.. 🤌
It sounds like Gemma….
@@robdaniel3211I'm pretty sure it is tbh
that vibrato
@@robdaniel3211I believe it's Gemma too
i can't get over the weeping sound while singing-
Vessel can make the strongest men cry.. this song slayed my soul.. amazing
This man lost someone who he truly, deeply, endlessly loved. There's no other way to show emotion like that.
Vessel just playing accompaniment as he lets the vesselette shine is so pure.
They're known as espera but yes their voices are beautiful

at 3:14 you can see a tear fall from vessels mask..
That's probably sweat lol
@@kylesteeden2212 you can literally hear him stifle cries as he's singing, that was def a tear

You can hear a difference in his voice before and after the female singer comes in. It sounds like he's recovering from weeping, and it's beautiful.

V (5) the backup singer though… What a balsam of a voice that woman has.
Wow! I wish we had a professional record of this
So do I.. 😫

I'm not a huge fan of gospel music, but this needs to be released on ALL platforms.
This is not gospel. This was by a Jewish man who was also a Buddhist. People keep thinking it's Christian but it is not
This is genuinely insane. Vessels voice is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard.
One of the best covers of Jeff Buckley's version I've seen... So beautiful
Didn’t think I could ever find one that could compare to Buckleys but this is pretty close! Their voices are perfect for it
No it just... isn't. Lol.@@dinosuarzr0ck827
My sentiments exactly.
Leonard Cohen, but loved the Buckley version
@@dinosuarzr0ck827 not to take away from this performance by Vessel/Espera, and the band but this blows the original away for me: ruclips.net/video/kC0A7upwuKI/видео.html
Goosebumps from the backing vocal!!!!!! Vesselettes bring so much to the table
dang, wishing this was on Spotify
I think we all do 🥲
bawling at this again i literally cant handle this video
lord save me i cant stop crying
Such a special song and they executed it perfectly
The vocals are so beautiful it's enough to make u cry
Sound tech needs a round of applause too, that is a beautiful mix.
Imagine an album version with the vessellette part and backing vocals.. would be beautiful
It's been 20+ years to honestly say that someone finally did this song as much justice and grace as Buckley did. Cohen wrote it, Buckley perfected it, and I'll be danged if Vessel didn't just take that torch from the late, great Jeff Buckley.
This moves me to tears, make me find a purpose to keep going, thanks for recording this masterpiece of music.
This is up there with Jeff's version. Beautiful rendition. Love a studio recording of this song with the vessellette's verse.
5... V... she's got the voice of an angel. ❤
I've been a sleep token fan for ages - why is this the first time I'm hearing this!? Stunning 😍
Thank you God for such a beautiful cover of such a precious song❤
i think he had a spiritual awaking while singing this so pure great jobbbbb !!
i wasn’t ready for that cover when i got it recommended even though i knew vessel would do it heart wreakingly…but i didn’t expect THAT
Omg I'm so blown away by vessel love him so much😢 ❤
Such a beautiful rendition😊❤
That Vessellettes Hallelujah was soul touching
I was searching for this song because it's a favorite of mine. What a nice surprise to find this version as a new Sleep Token fan. I love it. ❤️
Господь, слава Тебе за такие таланты!🙌
Thank you for capturing this moment in time. Worship.
It blew my mind! Wow! Vessel is a great singer and Sleep token a great project, definitely!
Fuel for the mind
Never cried like this before ❤
I love vessel, such an amazing artist
Hallelujah Amen 🙏🤲🪽😇🪽🫶. I love this song. 💓🎼🎙️🎸🎶🎧.
Goosebumps! These 2 are great together ❤
The pure emotion in vessels voice in the second half is incredible
the ladys voices back him up perfectly
Crying...just beautiful. They need to do this in current concerts.
WOW I've only recently discovered this exists and keep coming back to replay it as its just so good!
I hope one day we get an official recording, their voices are so perfect together 😍
I wanna hear more!
i always come back to this
I wish he knew just how much he fixes me with every word he sings
Thank you for capturing this sacred moment in time!
I get goosebumps every time I listen to this
This was beautiful and hard chills. 💖🎶✌️
they nailed it I HOPE THEY PLAY IT AGAIN
I needed this Vessel. Thank you
I feel like my pupils must have dilated like fuck when I saw Sleep Token covered this. Every bit as hitting as I thought it'd be.
I just got wicked goosebumps right now
Just stunning 😭❤️
God damn this voice gives me chills all over my body.
Just unbelievable how good this band is❤
Beautiful
All I can say is WOW!!! 😱🥹
Everything about this preformance was soul shattering, and i see many comments on here of things i was gonna say. But i haven't seen enough comments on the ending harmony, they blended the 2 voices sooo beautifully my entire body vibrated, the perfect fusion of voices
The series of events that led me to watching this video is ridiculous.
What were they? Please share?!? ❤
please share or else i will forever have this question in my heart
This needs to be released... moved me so much more than the original. 😢❤
Which original? There are a gazillion versions of this song, and the original by Leonard Cohen was not nearly as much of a hit as some of the covers. (Rufus Wainright did it for Shrek, for example, so that tends to be the version people my age and younger are familiar with.)

Omg I love this
Hallelujah Amen! 💗🎼🤍🙏🏻🤲🏻🫶🏼
I was so enthralled by his run that it resulted in me over peppering my chicken....opps...
This is an absolutely beautiful cover. ❤️ The only thing that would have made it better is if Vessel had sung Leonard Cohen's original final lines: "And even though it all went wrong, I'll stand before the lord of song with nothing on my tongue but Hallelujiah". Imagine how powerful that would feel coming from him!
Thank you
wow 🤩
Merry Christmas 2023, friends
So beautiful
watching this again actually
Não aguentei ver o Vessel soluçando 😭😭😭
I’m not crying you’re crying
Hallelujah.
wow...
Reckon it was Lynsey for the vocalist support solo?
Exploring Birdsong.
Why this isn't on Spotify , imma cry 😭
Blacklit Canopy vibes
Im not crying you're crying 😢
daaaaamn
❤
Woah...
Worship...
Holy FUCK! That woman’s voice is… just… wow. Obviously Vessel, too. But the woman caught me off guard.
🖤♥️
I think that a room being moved to praise says a lot.
Especially that room. We all love a little a gospel. It’s food to the soul regardless
What an intimate setting. No douchebag security scowling at the front. Oh to have been there!!
Just a theory, but does anyone think the female singer could be Gemma Mathews from Blacklit Canopy?
It isn't!
3:37
anyone knows who the vessellette is? Shes making me cry
Check out the band: Exploring Birdsong...
