One of the most beautifully sad songs. Christina Aguilera has a beautiful voice and is good on this song. But this guy, oh my, no one should be within 50 yards of him when he sings this. He deserves the stage all to himself with the power with which he delivers this song. It's incredible. If you aren't moved by this song, you just can't feel. 40-some people have given this a thumbs down. Wow.
I couldn't agree more. I heard the version with Christina first and just sort of shrugged. Then I ran across this one night...man. One of the most gutwrenchingly emotional live performances I have ever seen. The song has MUCH more power without her or anything else cluttering up the song.
The song is perfect just like this. I don’t know who thought having some chick in a slutty dress show up and breathe heavily could possibly improve it.
@@hammerpeg7855 especially considering that making this song a duet doesn't make ANY sense
I just ugly cried at this video.. now I can't breathe through my nose and l need to go to sleep.
@@IschmarVI YES! Exactly. I made a similar comment elsewhere.
His voice is clear and crisp and PERFECT. The keyboard is all he needs and he fills the stage. Amazed...
i'll still listen to this song when i'm 80...
There is something so special about his energy. I've never been so memorized by a single repeating note. Better than the duet version too, in my opinion.
I think both versions are great. In this performance you focus on him singing it all alone and urging the unseen partner to say something. It is sad and desperate. The note that is repeated throughout represents his insistence. In the duet version, the additional harmony and the added emotional quality maybe diminishes the desperation a bit, but it adds the formerly unseen partner and shows that the emotion can go in both directions simultaneously. Both are missing something in the relationship, both wait for the other to say the right thing that fixes it but neither is capable although there is still a common ground and a harmony within.
SO MUCH BETTER singing this by himself
I agree, singing the song with Christina, jwas amazing; however, with him alone, you can see and fell the emotion. Also every nuance is illustrative through his voice and actions. Well done my friend. God bless your singing. I wish I could see him in concert. That would make my year.
I didn't make it in time while my mom was in ICU . I was on a grey hound bus from in the middle of winter . 15 hours . I got to the hospital . I was to late . She went to heaven . I just wanted to hear her voice . Till this day this song makes me cry in honor of my mo LORY . 😢
This is how this song was meant to be heard. One voice one instrument.
All these artists today can't make REAL music. Everything has been digitized to enhance their true singing ability. Not saying ALL musicians are like this today, but mainstream are for sure.
This dude takes a piano & his natural singing ability & takes a dump on most of today's musicians in under 5 minutes. Respect.
That emotion...
This is the best live voice I have ever heard. Loved Ian for years.
yeah the way his voice can't carry the strong notes had me so astonished and impressed
yeah the way his voice can't carry the strong notes and him having one dynamic had me so astonished and impressed
Douglas Liantonio - The fact that he can emote so effectively without any fancy tricks is what makes him so special.
Absolutely breathtaking performance! I cannot stop hitting repeat!! I love when great music only takes a piano, and a real live singer.
If anyone's lost a loved one recently, cry and let them go to a better place. 👍
It starts out as an Sad Ballad then at 2:45 he blames her and the Keys tell The Story... "B*tch Say Something, Something... Anything!! We"re breaking up and I don't even want to... Such an emotional song! and you feel every bit of it-Great Song!
This guy is like a musical genius or something. At one point he slams his hand down on the keys (like in frustration) and makes it sound good.
For those who've had love fade away, lost a loved one, or experienced any sort of loss, this song touches a very intimate emotional place. It goes to show that the simplest of songs or melodies often have the biggest impact. Truly beautiful...
When the people you made awesome memories with become a memory is a hard thing to swallow
this man has such a powerful voice on his own. chirstina was good in it but him by himself is much better in my opinion
+DestroyerGaming I agree!! Ian is amazing
They shouldn’t let Christina anywhere a song like this.
I really think she hurt the song when she was added to it.
@@UncleBobbo Honestly I think she was good!
But I'm not gonna judge your opinion
😁

Oh.my.god. Ohmygod ohmygod. I can Hear, I can Feel, the intensity and emotion he put into Every word. I couldn't help but cry. I can't even...describe How this song makes me feel. I'll never stop loving this. It only gets better each time!
This song is so very sad.. I'm living this song as i write through the tears roling dwn my cheeks!! There is nothing more sad than giving many yrs of your life to someone that you loved, and they once loved you back dearly, but thru trials and tribulations in Life instead of talking it through and communicating they have shut dwn Phycially, Mentally and Emotionally from you, even the children, and there is Nothing to bring them back!! Nothing you can do but finally decide to give up on them, and give it to God, because it becomes toxic for the both of you and more especially for the children, which makes it twice as hard to walk away!! God help us!!
I hope you are doing well and happy now. Some people are meant to only be in our lives for a period of time and not forever but that's OK. It doesn't mean that they were never meant to be there. ♥️
..
Years later and it still tears me up
This is just timeless.. The feelings and emotions.. I feel this song so much right now... Saying everything I wish I had the courage to say
dang he is feeling it
you got that right Chris
oh ya he is,and so am i
Claude Lamoureux me too! Kat & Claude
Best song I have ever heard in my life. The most emotional song I have ever felt by any performer ever
I don't care what anyone says, this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and also performed. AGBW really knows how to deliver this masterpiece and while it is sad at times, it's also a great piece to allow people to move on and receive comfort during hard times. God bless everybody!
His voice is perfect for this type of song
From where ever this song came from in this artist, I was right there too. A few times so far, but probably in an exact different set of circumstances.
And there will be too many more, more than likely.
It is life. Life is about commitment to meaningful ideals, to foster better life, not to serve solely convenience, with one's soul.
Peace to you and yours.
The emotion being displayed is unreal
Lord. This hits me right in my heart.
Same ,
Dang he's great live!!!!
What can I say “ this is what I call a love song 🎤❤️ definitely this solo version has feeling and takes the cake !! If you listen to the song again without watching the video it takes you to an entirely different place 🙏
Holy Christ, why am I just now discovering this version of the song?! This is so powerful.
I cannot watch this without crying.
I love that slide this he does with his left hand around 2:45 ish. I love Ian so much. Such an amazing singer and piano player. Love A Great Big World so so much
+Alexis Inch that slide is called a glissando
well that is very cool
For me it's near impossible to hear this song and not cry.
Go Ian!! You're a power house on that electric piano & behind that microphone!!! #IanAxel #AGBW
This guy can singgggggggg!!!!
I love how into the music he gets. It's like nothing else matters.~Erin
The emotions are just enormous!!! A good song only requires a good voice and piano! As simple as that!!!
Simply amazing! This song is beautiful and the meaning is just incredible.
RUclips has to make an "I love it" button, because "Like" is not enough for this song
I'm 8 and it makes me cry because my uncle died
❤️ **hugs** I hope you are doing well today.
Now your 14 or 15
I loved this song since I first heard it, but I think seeing him perform it live makes me love it more. I've watched him perform this live numerous times and every time, he performs with so much emotion. Simply amazing
Stunning. Love his voice
Thanks from 2020
I have always had a fantasy guy; surprised it is him. Totally. He amazes me.
Unbelievable performance! Felt your emotions through it all! Love this group, and just bought my tickets for Buffalo, bravo!
Best version yet... because it's real... comes from his heart!
I saw these guys open for 2Cellos in Huntsville, AL. I had never heard of them. It was an amazing show. As they were walking off stage they received a standing ovation and certainly deserved it. I honestly thought they were going to cry. The best part of their success is that they honestly seem to be great people. I hope they explode all over America.
4:18 minutes well spent listening to this great song right from the soul
This is one of those rare few performances where I can really feel the emotion coming from the singer. And I feel like him singing this song only makes the pain worse rather than soothe it, he did not look alright at the end of the video. :(
Love is song for so long and it has connected so many levels and the healing it offers to those in situations where they are struggling to find their path. I personally met and expresed to Ian and Chad how much their music has given me personally thank you so much AGBW. Keep up the outstanding work.
The power in the words set too music brilliant.
If anyone has told a girl this and she felt it like when it's sung I'm sure she would come back if she was smart.
Omg!! This made me cry! Such a great performance! Very real and full of emotion!!
One of the best song ever.... there's tears in my eyes everytime I heard this.... I really like this song!
Best version of this song.
You feel his emotion
WOW
It's so Powerful
when he sings it alone
There was no need to put christina in the mixed.
i love this song and love the emotion he's bringing into this performance... but i can't get over how hard he's pounding that keyboard
This song can make me tear up every time
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. 😊
What a voice , what a song , it's incredible. I love this , today it's first time when I heard about it , it's amazing what talent let God for us . Love yours wifes , yours husbands , your fathers and moms , love yours family because they're the most importants persons in our life . "Say Something" about that..
So much emtions are conveyed in this song.
God! This is music. This is emotional, pasional, everything. I just found this song because of "If I stay" Trailer
Poor chad. This is like the main (and to most people only) song they're known for and he doesn't get to sing. Lol! But i do love this song. I just wanna give Ian a hug!!!
this great one of best songs ive heard in long time
By far the best version of this song. Don't need to add a over hyped diva singer to make it a great song.
This song has a meaning for the singer; therefore, no one can sing it better than him. Besides this is an easy song to cover and that is why everybody is going crazy posting their covers in the actual artist videos.
Immediately I think Jesus, can't get past the first verse without crying.
You can hear the pain in his voice, folks don't sing like this anymore. This song is being used in the Chinese drama series called "Meteor Garden". So heartbreaking....and beautiful at the same time.♥️
Tweek and Craig's break up song..lol
THAT'S HOW YOU SING A SONG!!!!!!
Heartbreaking.
Best version right here!!
That "D" just keeps coming and coming
i have had this song stuck in my head for a week now, Great song
I first heard this song today and you just can't help but put your love, life, past experiences into it. 'anywhere I would've followed you'..sing it man its the truth you can tell it in his performance.
Such a great performance! I can feel he's pain!love him!
an absolutely amazing track!! only heard it 2 days ago and can't stop listening to it.......
Good voice, awesome song. Keep on Shinning
Thank you
Absolutely the best!. I cannot keep it dry evertime I hear this. It is sooooooo beaytiful
So much emotion and sparkly pants...
AMAZING!!!!!!!!
One of my favorite songs
gets me every time😢
I love these studio sessions. It reminds me of the old MTV unplugged.
I'm sure there are thousands of people already sharing anecdotes on how they relate, and sure there are others annoyed by it, but damn it hurts so much to feel like your feelings aren't shared or that you're being used...
Musical genius! This generation's Elton John!
Not to disrespect Christina Aguilera's contribution to the original song of Great Big World. Fact is, she is a guest singer to add an additional piece to the song, period. The band members enjoy her friendship and quality of emotion to the song and are friends with her in that respect. This song is a legacy of emotion and heartache and stands on it's own. Probably why we relate to the singer/composer/musician so much is due to the fact that he is simply singing from his heart.
Which is all that matters. Peace.
The best performance ever.. he makes you feel what he is feeling
Hi there Great big big world! Hi, My name is Pa Xia Vue. I reside in saint paul, minnesota. Thats official. God Bless our great big big world. God bless in all, all of us....Everyone, Everything, Every existence. Jesus loves you! great big world!!! Forever!!! eternity!
Wow i just went cold all over. I love his voice, i love their album, i love their voices and i love the instruments they use. So refreshing!
Still the most amazing version. The original, so simple, one perfect vocal.
