remember when we all had to watch these live versions and figure out the lyrics by ourselves. I loved that bc you got to see how to performed and it made me love her even more. I love you so much halsey
Contactly I know I'm honestly so sad about, but also I'm so glad she won't have to deal with people digging up old stuff and harassing her with it anymore. She was probably getting tired of people tweeting her old posts that she had already apologized for / addressed
Claudia Read people were just being obnoxious and were digging back in her blog and reblogging posts from years ago when she was just a regular one direction blog like everyone else and wouldn't stop making fun of her and then she deleted
“You were red. You liked me cause I was blue. You touched me and suddenly I was a lilac sky and you decided purple just wasn't for you.” SHE SAID THAT FULL OF PASSION OH MY GOD I LOVE HER
i hate to say this, but this version of colors is much better than the studio version on the album. i was anticipating a studio version for months and i was kinda disappointed :/ but im still so in love w halsey lol
I remember when this was the only version of colors I could listen to that actually sounded good and the quality was good, now she has her own fucking album I want to cry I'm so proud of her
coming back here to the first video i saw of her in 2015 after seeing halsey for the first time yesterday feels unreal!!! 😭 almost a decade of loving her and every bit of her music 🩷💜💙
That steady beat is everything. I keep bouncing to it and losing myself in a fantasy that her music paints in my mind. I don't know why but I feel happy listening to this, am I the only one?
i am 52 yrs old and love 60's and 70's music. but the last few yrs there are many singers that are very good. this girl has a very awesome voice. she is really good !! im not even kidding !! she will go far i think !!!
it's honestly been so long since the studio version is out but i still can't get used to it; like to me this performance is the actual original song im cryign
aw i remember watching this five years ago and falling in love with the song, the album version does not do justice but the lyrics are still on point. and then everyone started hating on her and making fun of her singing and i just want to go back to these times where you were just able to enjoy a song without being a meanie.
thanks to this video I fell in love with her... I'm so sad this isn't the studio version, you can tell shes singing this song with all her heart... specially in the lilac sky part. I love her so much and i'm so proud of how big shes become.
I love how at first she's all tight and obviously nervous and sort of reserving herself, but then toward the second half its all hand gestures and more moving around. you can sorta see her confidence building :3
I find myself coming back to this version of the song even though the audio version is out and I don't know why. I guess I love the beat more and the passion I feel in the way she sings the lyrics. And the "you were red" part gives me chills.
omg coming back to this vid today.... i can’t believe i’ve been a fan for this long 🥺 and to see where she’s at now and how successful she’s been lately.. i’m so proud of her 🥰
John Claxon hey! im sorry for the very late reply, ive been having issues with my laptop and stuff... but the show was great! a lot of standing and waiting but i had lots of fun! very entertaining
I can't believe, watching this now, how much she has grown and how many fans she has accumulated but I will never ever forget these live video days, when she sung a new song for the first time and you are searching through RUclips trying to find a good version that you can watch over and over, memorising all the lyrics and hand gestures so you can copy them in the shower. Absolute gold
THIS THIS IS THE SONG I WANT TO BE PLAYED AT MY WEDDING, FUNERAL, WHEN IM CRYING, WHEN IM LAUGHING, EVERY SINLE SECOND OF MY LIFE OH MY GOD THANK YOU HALSEY FOR THIS
remember when we all had to watch these live versions and figure out the lyrics by ourselves. I loved that bc you got to see how to performed and it made me love her even more. I love you so much halsey
Me too watching thes videos makes me miss the days before badlands was released 😔
Omg yes!! Miss those days
rt. i me. i mss those days too much. i'm so proud fucking of halsey
Yes omg
omg yes... I MISS THOSE DAYS SO MUCH
I miss being 19 and this being the only way to listen to this song.
remember when this was the only decent version of this song and everyone lived off the live version
I still think this is the best version
Wow time does fly 🕊️🕑
I just spent 20 min to find THIS SPECIFIC VIDEO because it brings me waves of nostalgia and I STILL like it more than the studio version 😭😭
SAME THIS VERSION IS SUPERIOR
I feel like this version is much more dreamier than the studio version, but I like the studio version too because it's so intense
This*
I agree especially the actual music
Agree
+Ryan Mitch Now there is!!!
we're everywhere |-/
I wish she hadn't deleted her tumblr. It made people realize that she's like any normal person with interests and passions and obsessions.
Contactly I know I'm honestly so sad about, but also I'm so glad she won't have to deal with people digging up old stuff and harassing her with it anymore. She was probably getting tired of people tweeting her old posts that she had already apologized for / addressed

I thought it was red but it is actually grey
I don't get it. What's with red and gray?
It's sounds like she's saying red, some people thing she's saying red others thing grey. It is actually grey she tweeted.

and even more the part of "lilac sky"
I remember when this was the only version of colors I could listen to that actually sounded good and the quality was good, now she has her own fucking album I want to cry I'm so proud of her
the way that we all youtube to mp3’ed this version back in the day
coming back here to the first video i saw of her in 2015 after seeing halsey for the first time yesterday feels unreal!!! 😭 almost a decade of loving her and every bit of her music 🩷💜💙
you can't even hear the crowd too much when she's performing this is gold
because it was her first time ever doing it live and the song still hasn't been released lol nobody knew the words
Am i the only one who repeats this video more than 6000 times a day?
Ajleefan4ever not at all
No
Yay! i thought I was the only one, although the studio version is out there I still listen to this about every single day!
No. 🚫
that part about the lilac sky.... really got to me
it gave me chills bc it was so beautiful 😻
That steady beat is everything. I keep bouncing to it and losing myself in a fantasy that her music paints in my mind. I don't know why but I feel happy listening to this, am I the only one?
+luke knight makes me happy too!
She srsly needs to be noticed. Her voice is just PERFECT
I really want her to go on tour with 5SOS OMFG😍😍
yes omg but like her and ashton and mikey on insta
It was Mikey and Calum but yeah😂😊
i think it was all or just not luke idk
her more recent one is with Mikey and Calum but I think she has some older posts with Ashton since they're like best friends.
this will forever remain the best version/performance of colors imo
I love it when she spreads out her arms and just gives it all. I think she's an angel dressed up as a human haha
I love how quiet the audience is. Their like mesmerized.
THIS IS SUCH AN AMAZING SONG I LOVE HALSEY SO MUCH I'M SPEECHLESS
Prof pic 👌👍👏

"You were red
And you liked me cause I was blue
You touched me and suddenly I was a lilac sky
And then you decided purple just wasn't for you"
"you decided purple wasn't for you" I CHOKED ON MY DRINK
i come back here every year since 2015 :') still my favorite halsey live, and interpretation of this song.
This performance is my religion
Lmfao me
The studio version isn't terrible exactly but this will always be my favorite version of this song. Wish the studio sounded more like this. :/
i am 52 yrs old and love 60's and 70's music. but the last few yrs there are many singers that are very good. this girl has a very awesome voice. she is really good !! im not even kidding !! she will go far i think !!!
better than the studio tbh 😂
Slightly agree😂👌
agree 100%
I agree...there's more passion here
it's honestly been so long since the studio version is out but i still can't get used to it; like to me this performance is the actual original song im cryign
aw i remember watching this five years ago and falling in love with the song, the album version does not do justice but the lyrics are still on point. and then everyone started hating on her and making fun of her singing and i just want to go back to these times where you were just able to enjoy a song without being a meanie.

I have an emotional connection to this version man I memorized it before it came out
i was 14 when i found halsey. i'm 18 now and coming back to this version of colors is so crazy to me.
BEEN WAITING FOREVER TO FINALLY HEAR THIS SONG. I am far from disappointed. Absolutely love this. Oh my God, man.
I've listened to this on repeat for hours
Finally an artist that CAN sing live.
I watch this everyday omg. She's soooo good live
I tried my hardest to describe how I feel about this song in words and I just can't. It's too beautiful for words, I'm way too excited for badlands.
I love how at first she's all tight and obviously nervous and sort of reserving herself, but then toward the second half its all hand gestures and more moving around. you can sorta see her confidence building :3
this will be forever my favorite live version of colors
sometimes I come to this video and imagine this is the studio version.
i love this with my life
stellaandbands STELLA i love you hi
Ayeee stel I see you xx (dallas_days on twitter in case you didn't know hahaha)
ay $tel
I already know this song is gonna be a HUGE hit! And i'm already proud :)
I need a studio version of this like now! Halsey is so incredible, I'm really hoping she'll get the fame she deserves
This is how I met Halsey. I remember when she wasn't as known as she is now 😭💔
I find myself coming back to this version of the song even though the audio version is out and I don't know why. I guess I love the beat more and the passion I feel in the way she sings the lyrics. And the "you were red" part gives me chills.
oh my god, i love her so much. words cannot express how much i adore her.
omg coming back to this vid today.... i can’t believe i’ve been a fan for this long 🥺 and to see where she’s at now and how successful she’s been lately.. i’m so proud of her 🥰
I GET GOOSEBUMPS EVERYTIME SHE SINGS OMG IM SO INLOVE
THIS IS FOREVER MY FAVORITE PERFORMANCE
the spoken word hit me like a brick i love her
throwback to before badlands came out when if i wanted to listen to colors i would play this video
remember when this was the video we all watched bc there was no studio version omg!! and the gray vs red debate.. I'll always loovee this version!!
may or may not have cried watching this. she is everything.
i cANT WAIT FOR THE STUDIO VERSION OF THISSSS ❤❤❤❤
I'm seeing halsey today, in nashville, im really excited
John Claxon hey! im sorry for the very late reply, ive been having issues with my laptop and stuff... but the show was great! a lot of standing and waiting but i had lots of fun! very entertaining
ugh I discovered Halsey 3 days after the Nashville concert (I live in Tennessee) and I'm super bummed I missed it.
I live in Columbia like an hour away from Nashville ugh I didn't know she came through 😞😫
Goosebumps and tears because this is so beautiful
i can't believe 7 years have passed...
someday I want to write beautiful music just like her. her songs are really nice to listen to but the lyrics are also beautiful
I'm so in love with her Omfg 😍😍😍✨👑✨👑✨👑✨👑✨✨

I still remember trying to determine lyrics to her songs from watching live performances and now her album is out and I'm so happy and proud of her.
THIS BETTER BE ON HER NEXT ALBUM OR IM SUING
Me!! Haha I will do it with you!😂
It is

Taylor Kennedy lol. am I the only one who actually likes the live version better than the studio version?
HOW HAVE I NOT HEARD THIS SONG IT IS LITERAL PERFECTION!!! My eyes have been opened 😍
This is so good. I can't wait for this album. I'm literally crying. Omj.
I can't believe, watching this now, how much she has grown and how many fans she has accumulated but I will never ever forget these live video days, when she sung a new song for the first time and you are searching through RUclips trying to find a good version that you can watch over and over, memorising all the lyrics and hand gestures so you can copy them in the shower. Absolute gold
when she started talking about the lilac sky it brought a tear to my eye this is such a beautiful song I love you Halsey
She's so freaking beautiful

The first video that I saw of her ever. Even 2 years later it is incredible
This is the first song I listen by Halsey and I just think i'm obsessed she earned another fan :D
The "lilac sky" is the best part of the song
shes so pretty

2021 and still can't get over this
SHE NEEDS TO DROP THIS SONG LIKE NOW
Her music is my happiness💙
everytime i ask someone if they know who halsey is and they say no it makes me smile because i know she's going to go so far :)
literally god bless you
Still the best version imo, music and everything. It's so nice.
i've never been so emotional while listening to a song like this before
I CANT WAIT FOR THIS TO RELEASE OMG
need to attend at least one halsey concert before i die man legit woah queen???
her mind is like a diamond
This so awesome! She is such a great singer, you can tell that she hardly needed any editing on the actual recording.
