    The fact that this guy isn't played on every radio station is absolutely criminal. An unbelievably talented musician.

      I don't mean this as an insult but he kinda doesn't belong on mainstream radio. A featured artist on NPR or alt rock radio but that's about it. Bluesy stuff like this doesn't translate very well into mainstream or top 40 stations unfortunately. That's okay though. Not everyone is into music as an art form and not everyone wants to be challenged by it. Some just want background noise and some just want something to dance and vibe too. That's okay. More talent like Shawn for us.

      The fact this guy still isn't more well known then damn Lil' Pump or some shit like that is annoying. Even the lyrics in Shawn's song have a meaning. Truly sad that so many people don't know him.

    This song actually has a story behind it when he wrote it. He was raised in a strict religious family and the church that he was in viewed him as an outcast and didn't treat him equally. He later left that church and after a couple of years later found out that his younger sister was also being treated the same way by the church.

    You know, I think this might be my favourite thing about the artist. Every time he plays a song, it's slightly different. Maybe it's just an octave shift different from where it used to be, or maybe he puts less stress or more on certain words, but every rendition he does is slightly, just slightly, different, and it adds a new mood to it. This was more remorseful than the studio cover, yet more passionate than the woods cover. It's truly a pleasure to listen to.

      Like in the Gaslight session for Who did that to you, he puts such growly emphasis on "I don't take pleasure in a mans pain, *but my wrath will come down like a cold rain*.
      I don't think he's sung it like that on any other videos on RUclips for the song.

    People search all their lives for that one perfect moment, that perfect picture, that perfect painting.
    Someone once said that music is the highest form of expression that was ever created under the sun.
    Musicians are poets, actors and painters combined in one. They take our feet off the ground and catapult us through the skies.
    And with the right notes they make us dream. A good musician entertains you, a great musician captures you.
    When I found out about Shawn, I become hostage of his music. Shawn James is the dark rose in the sea of white.
    He stands out because he can tie his voice and chords to your soul. Thats the true definition of genius.

    Whoever’s looking for the lyrics, here it is!
    I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
    And I'll fear no evil because I'm blind to it all
    And my mind and my gun they comfort me
    Because I know I'll kill my enemies when they come
    Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life
    And I will dwell on this earth forevermore
    Still I walk beside the still waters and they restore my soul
    But I can't walk on the path of the right because I'm wrong
    Well I came upon a man at the top of a hill
    Called himself the savior of the human race
    Said he come to save the world from destruction and pain
    But I said how can you save the world from itself
    'Cause I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
    And I'll fear no evil 'cause I'm blind
    And I walk beside the still waters and they restore my soul
    But I know when I die my soul is damned

    I'll never get over this performance, I've lived and I'll die by this. The voice is so powerful yet so serene, so much pain but so much clarity.

      Shaun wrote the song for the 2012 album Shadows, but it didn't get a lot of attention until he let the Last of Us 2 creators use the song for Ellie's song.. Shortly after the song got a ton of hits on here, and Shaun is now touring the US and Europe, and becoming better known. He is a very strong song writer, and super talented musician. Check out the album Shadows (solo effort).. and then check out his band Shaun James and the Shape shifters.. EPs The Wolf, The Bear, The Hawk are awesome, and the newest album The Gospel according to....

Everything flows so nicely; the guitar, the strings, and the vocals. I really cant compliment this enough - i'll just say that im addicted.

    I absolutely love this about Shawn James his voice and his instruments are all that he needs, he doesn't need autotune, effects, or anything to alter it. It's just instruments and his voice which is what makes it so amazing, the lyrics are also one of the most important things and they just pull it all together. I hate how he doesn't have enough recognition for his talent

    ''_Lyrics_''
    I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
    And I'll fear no evil because I'm blind to it all
    And my mind and my gun they comfort me
    Because I know I'll kill my enemies when they come
    Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life
    And I will dwell on this earth forevermore
    Still, I walk beside the still waters, and they restore my soul
    But I can't walk on the path of the right because I'm wrong
    Well, I came upon a man at the top of a hill
    Called himself the saviour of the human race
    Said he come to save the world from destruction and pain
    But I said, "how can you save the world from itself?
    Cause I walk through the valley of the shadow of death!
    And I'll fear no evil because I'm blind!
    And I walk beside the still waters, and they restore my soul
    But I know when I die my soul is damned
