@Bratislav Metulski shut up with your troll account. We can check every comment you have ever left. You're a plonker. Nothing but negativity coming from you.
I got the honor to play with Moses on the Colbert show in February. I’m telling y’all he’s a legend. He is truly GREAT. Mans is a STAR in every sense of the word.
I'm swooning from the fact that aside from this version sounding so good, every musician in this video is dressed and posed so well. I literally watch this every day.
One day I was at a small festival in Austria and Moses played there. I never heard of him before, so I had no idea what to expect. It was a rainy day, which is not the best setting for a festival, but when Moses started playing, the sun came out. I instantly got goosepumps, as the clouds vanished naturally. To this day, I exactly remember that moment. It was thi very moment I discovered the power of music and art. Thank you, Moses Sumney!
Funny, cause once upon a time, EnVogue was doing a festival in Phoenix Arizona... on a beautiful sunny day. Just as soon as they got ready to sing "Hold On To Your Love," enormous gusts of wind began to come from nowhere. The sky instantly got dark, and it was the most immediate rain I had ever experienced. Till this day, I will avoid that song like the CoronaVirus!
i came here to get to know his art after getting to know that he's collaborating with Namjoon (RM of BTS) on the song "Around The World In a Day" AND I'M SHOCKED BY MOSES TALENT????? HIS VOCALS ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? I'm so glad Namjoon is collaboration with him... he just introduced me to a gem ❤
You're not wrong. However COLORS is so good that frequently their version is better than the original version, but not this one (I'd rate them about the same). So I guess Moses is just that good!
It always gets me when the statement transitions to a command in the chorus "What cuts me, cuts me.... cut me, cut me" That's lowkey bone chilling loll
Fantastic arrangement. Showmanship. Movement. The dramatic tossing off of the outer garment calling back to OGs like James Brown. The hand signal to bring in the horn section (whose outfits match the set color). Excellently penned lyrics. Flawless work here from everyone on that stage.
I really love how COLORS promotes black artists and not just in an attempt to get “woke points”, by throwing one or two famous black artists in the mix. Like, there are actually almost as many black/mixed artists as there are white ones and that’s really rare. Let alone all the other ethnicities. It’s amazing to get so much diversity, both in origin, music type, style, etc... it really is a show of “Colors”.
There are so soo many incredible black and mixed young artists making music right now. So glad they are getting showcased! Excellence and creativity in music are alive and well!
I hope he reads this:, I’m not an artist but Ive read almost everywhere there’s a lot of self doubt in artist. I must say sir, you must be a god of confidence because you seem to have mastered “this. If “this” is “you”, WOW.... I’m honored to have shared this time and space with “you” who have created art with vibration. Thank you for blessing us. Thank you for being you, for I don’t see this unraveling as perfect as it did if you have been anyone else. Bless up!
I die. There is no one like Moses Sumney. From his voice to his performance to his identity... the way he meticulously and uniquely approaches every aspect of his art... pure genius ❤️ Thanks for this magical moment!
You should check out the Slug City Picks playlist on Spotify. Songs from the current year only, refreshes every other weekend. Lots of overlap with COLORS artists but a bit more diverse.
@@devondorr8212 Yeah but so many times when I look at Colors videos people are always saying how they think the sound is better than on the studio version and that they prefer to the original recording, that's all I meant.
@@tamsynfallows3234 great live sound engineer and he performed it with more feeling here...the studio version is not mixed as well, not as balanced...especially the bass.
I no longer beat myself up over time I've lost with incredible artists of the sort, I'm just grateful I discovered them, even if late. This was d i v i n e .
This is Prince and Bilal all rolled together into one being. Love this man for the pure excellence that he is blessing us with. Talent + Preparation = Perfection!
I listen to the song at least twice a day. This dude is jamming... Okay🙌🏾🙌🏾 its the different notes, the voice range, the octaves, the runs for me🥴Lawdd, he gave me everything I absolutely love in music 🥰🥰
god i am obsessed with him to an unbearable level 😭such a beautiful human with a beautiful voice and beautiful songs !! the instrumental team was angelic. absolute perfection
WHAT manner of Trickery is this ? That this man squeezed a whole lifetime... a whole life into 4min and 56 seconds! Oh Moses you have truly parted the musical sea and thine eyes have seen the Glory!
*Lyrics*
When I'm weary
And so worn out
Ooh, when my mind's clouded and
Filled with doubt
That's when I feel
The most alive
Masochistic kisses
Are how I thrive
A stiffness (in)
Inside my neck (and)
Bangin' my head (a)
Against the desk (woah)
If there's no pain (is)
There any progress
That's when I feel
The most alive
Endurance
Is the source of my pride
Might not be healthy for me but seemingly I need
What cuts me, cuts me, cuts me, cut me, cut me, cut me
Guess I'm a true immigrant son
No vacancies, no vacations
Sure, I could do better than this
But I don't, I wont, I don't
Might not be healthy for me but seemingly I need
What cuts me, cuts me, cuts me, cut me, cut me, cut me
Hurt me, hurt me
😍😍😍 powerful
9on is
Has anyone else tried to sing to this song? The man is talented. I'm not lol
Amazing
😭😭😭
Thanks so much for the love, y'all.
was looking for you in the comments ! love you moses
why does this have so few likes
You are amazing!!!!
I love your music. Keep 'em coming as always.
You’re so vibin it like wow, what a good energy 🖤
It's not a song,it's an spiritual journey.
Well said
lonetruthseeker a fact.
@Bratislav Metulski I'm guessing you hate the song
I can hear the Black church influence in his voice.
@Bratislav Metulski shut up with your troll account. We can check every comment you have ever left. You're a plonker. Nothing but negativity coming from you.
an ARTIST ladies and gentlemen.
DON Oh Yeah
HE is )
Factsss💯💯💯💯
Many artists
Yeeeeees
He literally looks and acts like a deity of music.
This is the best description of him that I’ve seen so far...
He’s not of this world.
The God of music has shown their true form.
Lol he's just visiting 😌
perfectly put onffffggfg
you felt it too?!!!!!
This is one of the best performances I’ve seen. His range is unbelievable. The band is perfectly complimentary. So groovy funky soulful.
I got the honor to play with Moses on the Colbert show in February. I’m telling y’all he’s a legend. He is truly GREAT. Mans is a STAR in every sense of the word.
That show was incredible, you're very talented!
udoka reads Thank you! I’m on IG @thejefferymiller if you want to tap in, but more importantly tap in with Moses.🔥🔥🔥
Gorgeous!
Lucky baby duckling ♥️ I’m so jealous
JEFFERY MILLER That performance was SPOT ON! You all were on point!!!
I’ve been hydrated. My edges are thriving. My skin is glowing. I am healed
Bodhiॐ Tree my wash n go is fresh and my buttery smooth. Also I have a layer of covid repellant
I felt this 💛✨
🌱
a trail of cocoa butter scent follows wherever i go
Bodhi?? Tree Girl, you cra-cra🤣🤣🤣 Meaning: I love your comment. ...wish it was mine!
His voice is like listening to all genres at once.
emmanual that you?
Where's the heavy metal?
I was thinking the same...TRANS-GENRE music. INCREDIBLE.
CHRISTI XX listen to Conveyor
@@XxQueenChristinaxX that falsetto is absolutely metal
I can not believe this is a real song. A few seconds and I was blown away. How this man uses his voice is extraterrestrial
His voice really is out of this world
I'm swooning from the fact that aside from this version sounding so good, every musician in this video is dressed and posed so well. I literally watch this every day.
I thought I was the only one! It never gets old.
Moses' voice could cut through cake like a god damn sword
Maybe even the red sea...
this song sounds like a consistent 64 ounces of water per day, maybe some of it sparkling if ur lucky
From the looks of it, he cut your pfp too 😂
Who uses a sword to cut cake

which festival was it?
@@indivia Ahoi Pop Festival 2018 with The National, CHVRCHES, Moses Sumney, Young Fathers and many more. Young Fathers were so damn good!
@flo martell aaah i see. In linz!
@@indivia exactly!

All I know is...that Violinist was JAMMIN' over there in the cut.
My favourite part of the entire visual aspect of the performance was his fro bobbin around as he jammed. 🔥🔥🔥
He was a cutie for sure
his hoop earrings give me life
Haha I was thinking the exact same thing.
Yyyyaaasss!!!! He was there!
the jacket removal at 3:30 is the icing on this delicious cake of a performance
Is he even real? His magical presence is already overwhelming.
the man is a siren, I swear
COLORS is basically my music taste
ya ...this Sofar, Mahogany are my playlist.Corona soundtrack.Doesnt get better than this
COLORS is expanding my music taste
This should be in a movie.
It's like the song is telling a story.
Also can we talk about the band!!🔥🔥🔥
pure excellence
NO
Luv you Jeffery! More music and good times ahead.
GIVE THEM THEIR FLOWERS 🗣🗣🗣🗣
YES we can talk about the band!! Such a journey :D
The framing of his hand showcasing the band members. Mwuah, chefs kiss.
i love it when someones literally feeling his own music through his gestures and everything. This is a really a great song indeed
Can we just appreciate that violinist (?) for a second plz
LEE lee my thoughts exactly.
Here is the violinist's appreciation thread!
Those moves, that attitude - such a vibe
The music is for me only on the wrong side of the screen , it should have been mirrored to match the video, doens't make the violist worse tho =D
SO GOOD.
His voice sounds like an instrument itself
it is
I felt it when my mans threw his cape
Bryce Davis I had to watch that many times 😂❤️
period.
So SMOOOOOOOOTH.
a mood
He is my man
This is one of the best things I HAVE EVER HEARD.
i came here to get to know his art after getting to know that he's collaborating with Namjoon (RM of BTS) on the song "Around The World In a Day" AND I'M SHOCKED BY MOSES TALENT????? HIS VOCALS ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? I'm so glad Namjoon is collaboration with him... he just introduced me to a gem ❤
okay so this is the best COLORS performance of all time change my mind
One of them.
You're not wrong. However COLORS is so good that frequently their version is better than the original version, but not this one (I'd rate them about the same). So I guess Moses is just that good!
This and Fatoumata Diawara's are my all time favorites
Denzel curry diet nuff said
I haven't listend to a fancy song like this for a while for real
“Fancy song” I’m literally living 😭😭
It IS soooo fancy!
Fancy lmaoooo
"Fancy" all music can be like this, depending what you listen to.
Don't waste your time listening to bad music.
His voice speaks to me on an ancestral level ❤️
Yes!
Prince...
genius. he's a genius. ive never felt it more profoundly than when his voice opens up my heart wow
This man is a deity. No words for this level of talent.
Remember seeing him open for James Blake 3 years ago. People need to stop sleeping on Moses
Same. It was at Radiocity music Hall. What a revelation.
Antoinette Miles that sounds like a phenomenal combination
i first heard of him when he parted the red sea
Same in Dallas. MOST perfect concert.
🤤🤤🤤 what a combo that must have been
Yaaaas. Been wondering when he would show up on this show. Obsessed with his song Me in 20 years.
It always gets me when the statement transitions to a command in the chorus
"What cuts me, cuts me.... cut me, cut me"
That's lowkey bone chilling loll
or it could be switching to past tense, but that's less interesting
Yea lol
He plays his vocal cords like Jimi Hendrix played the guitar. He is a musical instrument of the cosmos.
"If there is no pain, is there any progress" the lyrics that have stuck in my head ever since I first heard this💚💚💚
Excellent flip of the classic Frederick Douglass quote
Absolutely
Ladies and Gentlemen the moment we've been waiting for!!!
The power that that has, the intelligence that that has, the clearence that that has, the access that that has, the influence that that has
the 'that's that that has
Whew! Colors never disappoints with the new artist recommendations. He's like a new age Sylvester.
Sylvester that sang that "You make me feel" song?
habla en español
por que estoy en mexico
Fantastic arrangement. Showmanship. Movement. The dramatic tossing off of the outer garment calling back to OGs like James Brown. The hand signal to bring in the horn section (whose outfits match the set color). Excellently penned lyrics. Flawless work here from everyone on that stage.
That cape drop was sorcery! I am under a spell now. It is done!!! 3:30
By far one of the best COLORS productions.
ugh. when he threw that jacket
A moment! 💫
That was fierce
I felt that.
Spoiler alert :)
Thank God for RUclips’s 3sec REEEEEWIND ⏪ REWIND.... R EW INNND

thats why i love about the channel, they dont see race, culture or color they see music
@@t0natiuh454 It's not about being blind or not seeing color. It's about appreciating every color and its art.
There are so soo many incredible black and mixed young artists making music right now. So glad they are getting showcased! Excellence and creativity in music are alive and well!
I teared up the moment he got into the first verse. No other music has made me feel this way before, not even my favourite musicians. What a talent..
They way they were vibing at the end shows you how amazing this song is
Dont know what this sound is but damn it feels good
He sound (and dance) like this...
ruclips.net/video/-Cq8zRq0G9I/видео.html
sight-y V I S I recommend his NPR tiny desk performance
Exactly this NPR Tiny Desk performance...
ruclips.net/video/C4-0Q8W8Nb0/видео.html
0:23 Once the bassline comes in, you're trapped! No human alive can escape that groove
Speaking of, who has the tab notes 👀
My heart. My soul. My everything. I love this. His voice. The instruments. ❤
Oh my god...when he hits that higher note. His range is fabulous!
what a sonically and visually pleasing performance ❤🔥
I hope he reads this:, I’m not an artist but Ive read almost everywhere there’s a lot of self doubt in artist. I must say sir, you must be a god of confidence because you seem to have mastered “this.

@@justinkingery2489 thanks
Finding AMAZING black artists to listen to is my favourite activity 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This is like a throwback to the best ‘70’s soul music I’ve ever heard. Like the Ohio Players.
I can’t lie, I listen to this everyday 😭😭😭🧘🏿🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love the wider setting
I just got goosebumps all over my body..
Same, amazing.
I like the live version even more than the studio one.
people always say that about colors shows. No one knows how they do it, but they always do!
@@tamsynfallows3234 Nah because this one sounds actually like a live version, other colors shows just sound like another studio take.
@@devondorr8212 Yeah but so many times when I look at Colors videos people are always saying how they think the sound is better than on the studio version and that they prefer to the original recording, that's all I meant.
@@devondorr8212 yeah this version has much nicer instrumentation than the studio one imo. the band really levels this up
@@tamsynfallows3234 great live sound engineer and he performed it with more feeling here...the studio version is not mixed as well, not as balanced...especially the bass.

This was d i v i n e .
I already loved the studio version of this song but I just love his voice so much and this sounds amazing😭
Amen
Colors artists looking like anime characters, part 57
^^
FACTZ
I was gonna say, I'd love to see him and the guy who wore the farmer's hat/samurai kinda outfit a while back perform together.
Love it
Color's Bizarre Adventure
Moses Sumney is a great artist in his own right, not an epigon of Prince. But Prince would definitely be proud of this.
Well said 💯👌🏼
My exact thought’s and feelings🖤💯
Classic from 2020! 🖤
the piano player is everything
the things i would DO to see this man live rn. most underrated artist out here
That might be one of the best Colors videos EVER.
This is insanely beautiful. His voice and soul sound like they are one. It's a song you can not only hear, but feel. Absolutely amazing.
I have to come back to this performance from time to time. Just amazing!! I love the beginning. He reminds me of my favorite artist Bilal!!!
i can't believe this is just... available to watch. for free. feels like i should have to pay to witness this
the best fits ive ever seen on this show, and definitely one of the best performances too, wow
I don't know why, I can't stop myself coming back here everyday.
This is Prince and Bilal all rolled together into one being. Love this man for the pure excellence that he is blessing us with. Talent + Preparation = Perfection!
Definitely! You can really hear Bilal's influence...yet Moses's vocals are so amazing and distinctively his.
Yes Bilal!! My favorite artist
I love this song...play it over and over!
This man has an immensely gifted voice
They do not make music like this anymore you are a gem
I keep coming back to this performance. What a song and performance it is! It sounds so good.
I've lost count on how many times I've seen this video, every time feels like the first time, I suddenly feel alive.
Moses is so beautiful!
This is Truth. This is truth. This is Soul.
I listen to the song at least twice a day. This dude is jamming... Okay🙌🏾🙌🏾 its the different notes, the voice range, the octaves, the runs for me🥴Lawdd, he gave me everything I absolutely love in music 🥰🥰
Fell in love with this on March 6, 2022 at 3:10 a.m.....then turned around and shared it with 40K of my sorority sisters!
moses gives me chills
Unbelievably beautiful and living proof of the God in all.
Jumped at this notification .. LOVE Moses Sumney 😍😍
This feels like the season finale of colours. 👌Thank you engineers and musicians and, of course Moses🇿🇦
love his grey and black hair and brows
Talent like this is so eerie, how can a voice like this be real?
How am I just discovering Moses Sumney??? I love this so much
god i am obsessed with him to an unbearable level 😭such a beautiful human with a beautiful voice and beautiful songs !! the instrumental team was angelic. absolute perfection
This is beyond phenomenal ❤️
Remind me of a song when I was young good old days

The church is all up and through his voice...so amazing

This was really soothing for me. His voice is so beautiful
OMG! Que artista! Que música! Que voz! Que visual! Tô apaixonada ❤️
