    How did it take me THIS LONG to find this version? Aloes vocals are half the reason I fell on love with this song. I'm definitely an Avicii fan, but this version is amazing and I'm 100% here for it.

    Why is everyone thanking only Avicii. This was a collaboration between Aloe Blacc and Avicii. We should both thank both artists for collabing this song. This is an acoustic version of Aloe Blacc even though they both worked on this.

      Because Avicii has a tragic story and as his fan I feel like I owe everything to him. And also, whilst Aloe wrote the lyrics and sang, my favourite part is the actual track. I'm not saying I don't like his voice, I love it, I just like the music more.

    Most people probably don't know who Aloe Blacc is; most people probably don't know that he also worked on this song with Avicii; most people who do know him or have even heard of him probably don't know what a great talent he is. That needs to change. Aloe is so underrated. He has such an amazing voice and soft, well-spoken, inspirational words, but gets hardly any recognition. Aloe deserves to be one of the most admired musicians of his time. Rest in peace, Avicii. The whole world should give a standing ovation to Aloe & mourn the death of Avicii. Thank you, Aloe, for being such an admirable, aspiring, astonishing, amazing talent! And you, too, Avicii!

    Well that's still a compliment for Avicii. He picked his singer wisely and made a masterpiece from combining his music with Aloe's vocals. Avicii knew how to create music that could reach people's heart. To bad people never got to reach Avicii's heart.
    Rest In Peace Avicii

    Okay to everyone who wants to start arguments over "whose song it is" it's Aloe Blacc, Avicii, and Mike Eizinger's collectively. Mike and Avicii came up with the chord progression and melody. And Aloe Blacc wrote all the lyrics. Avicii said in an interview with MTV "We came up with the chord progression and melody, but no real lyrics. None of us sing and we really needed to get that demo down and the only person I knew that lived in LA was Aloe, so I called him and he was free. Lyrics come really easy to him so he wrote them in a couple of hours and we finished the track."
    They recorded an acoustic version that night, and Avicii made the dance mix most people are familiar with a few days later. So give them both their dues. It's not one or the others song, it's both their song. And the Mike guy too🤣 So stop arguing and enjoy the good music.

She was in shock that one of her best friends was willing to make that stretch for her.

    “Wake Me Up (Acoustic)”
    Feeling my way through the darkness
    Guided by a beating heart
    I can't tell where the journey will end
    But I know where to start
    They tell me I'm too young to understand
    They say I'm caught up in a dream
    Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
    Well that's fine by me
    [x2:]
    So wake me up when it's all over
    When I'm wiser and I'm older
    All this time I was finding myself
    And I didn't know I was lost
    I tried carrying the weight of the world
    But I only have two hands
    Hope I get the chance to travel the world
    But I don't have any plans
    Wish that I could stay forever this young
    Not afraid to close my eyes
    Life's a game made for everyone
    And love is the prize
    [x2:]
    So wake me up when it's all over
    When I'm wiser and I'm older
    All this time I was finding myself
    And I didn't know I was lost
    [x4:]
    I didn't know I was lost
    So wake me up when it's all over
    When I'm wiser and I'm older
    All this time I was finding myself
    And I didn't know I was lost

      without Avicii's music, this song would've been into oblivion like it was before that....look at how many people knew this song existed before Avicii remixed it? I think 2 years back I saw it had 4 million views? in contrast, Avicii had 1.5 billion....and in both songs, Aloee Blacc had his voice then why this song no one knew existed? why no one like this much? why everyone knows the Wake me up song by the name Avicii only? no one knew this was Aloe Blacc's voice ? Bottom line : everyone has content but how you market it and how you present it makes all the difference.
      This song you'll like when you're down and you want something soothing whereas that Avicii song can rock the entire party...that was the power of Avicii's music making capability....to turn an average song into an amazing one...same song same singer but one song no one knew....one song the entire world knows.
      In short : Aloee Blacc would've been nothing and would've been unrecognized without Avicii.

      That's the beauty of good songs. There's always someone out there who hasn't forgot and can give a half-dead song new life.

      There should be no countries, but every country that exists should have open borders, just like they used to. Even from a capitalist perspective it makes no sense - immigrants and refugees create more wealth and jobs than they "take". The 1% sucks far more wealth from the economy than any amount of welfare. It's pure racism and fascism - those with power scapegoating the effects of their greed on those without. Join a union, preferably an anarchist one.
