    It's a shame he's not on popular radio. More people should be exposed to music like this. Pure talent; beautiful music.

    Wow, what a great performance. Let's hear it for the great bass playing and percussion section as well. Four talented people playing right there!

    Would have been so easy to go on letterman and just play a hit like "Jolene" or "trouble" especially when promoting the first album. But he chooses to play "Forever my friend" and just nails it!! That's what you gotta love about Ray. Respect.

    Ray has got to be one of the most unique people on this earth. I dont know a lot of people who know about him and i think he could touch a lot of lives if he were put out there more.

    I have been listening to this cd nonstop lately and also thought it would be an amazing wedding song!! I always keep my eyes peeled for good first-dance songs :) I think shelter would a beautiful one as well!

    There are very few artists that completely move me - to tears, actually. He is one and Damien Rice is another. I NEED to see him in person to feel the emotion and passion that exudes from him and affects me so profoundly.

    I had also noticed that, but yeah, he's one of those artists that doesn't need controversy to have loyal fans. Truly an incredible artist.

    Ray is so F'N talented. That dude playing bass is killing it also.

  • @KuttyJoe
    @KuttyJoe 14 лет назад +1

    LOL He is absolutely nailing this live! I'm so used to seeing people butcher songs on Live TV that they can't really sing, but this guy is the real McCoy. It's been a very, very long time since I've found an artist that I can say I pretty much like all of their music. It might be time for a trip to a local CD store. It's been many years since I've felt the need to do that.

    i think the reason ray isn't on the radio so much is because his songs aren't commercialised bullshit, they have depth and are valid. not saying everything on the radio is but some of it for sure.

    both albums blend into one imho

    So far, I must have watched this video 50 times! I LOVE this guy. Why is he not played as much as guys like Justin Timerlake who can't even compare to a real artist like this?
    This guy breaks my heart with every note of every song. Thank God that real artists break through the bullshit every once in a while.
