Grace VanderWaal: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

- June 6, 2018 | Bob Boilen -- When 14-year-old Grace VanderWaal came to perform at the Tiny Desk I had to confess to her (and her mom) that, until my "accidental concert experience," I had no idea who she was, nor did I know what America's Got Talent was.
It all started this past February, when I went to the 9:30 Club, a 1,200 capacity music venue, to see what I thought was a show by rock guitarist Grace Vonderkuhn and her power trio from Delaware.
When I arrived for the unusually early 7:30pm show, I saw a long line of young teens wrapping around the block, mostly girls, and a fair smattering of adults who didn't look like the regular concert goers who head to the 9:30 Club on a weekday evening. And as you've likely guessed by now, the show I was about to witness was not the riff-rock guitar player we'd recently featured on All Songs Considered but a very different sort of wunderkind who won the hearts of millions as the 11th winner of America's Got Talent and, now, a Columbia recording artist.
Inside the club was a massively enthralled and enthused crowd and it didn't take long for me, one of the few older guys in the club, to also be completely swept away by her performance. It was a dazzling show that felt fresh, sincere, bold but also simple, with Grace on ukulele singing songs such as "Moonlight," a song about a friend dealing with mental health issues, which she also performs here at my desk.
"She always has a smile
From morning to the night
The perfect poster child
That was once in my life
A doll made out of glass
All her friends think that she's great
But I can see through it all
And she's about to break"
Despite what I feel is my broad love of music, I was reminded how easy it is to get comfortable in the musical confines we devise for ourselves. It's easy to stereotype artists and perhaps be dismissive of something that falls outside our comfort zone. But Grace's show and music reminds me to keep my thoughts and judgements open. So, if you're about to pass on watching this one, figuring you're not going to connect with a young teen and her music, stop. Take a deep breath, open up your heart and let Grace VanderWaal enchant you with her unique talent.
Grace VanderWaal's current album is called Just the Beginning.
Set List
"Moonlight"
"Darkness Keeps Chasing Me"
"Clearly"
MUSICIANS
Grace VanderWaal (vocals, ukulele), Melissa Dougherty (guitar, background vocals)

She's the only talent show winner who doesn't sound like a talent show winner, and that's refreshing.
Gabriela Sélavy perfect way to say that. She’s far bigger than that show.
James arthur too. I love them both❤
Gabriela Sélavy sawyer Fredrick
What about Kelly Clarkson
yup!!
Why is every Tiny Desk Concert I see the best Tiny Desk Concert I've seen?
YUP
I think this every time hahaha. It’s because they have impeccable taste in music and a world class sound team.
its because the mangagers LOVE music and musicians.
Holy shit. Something so striped down leaves no place to hide. She's a brilliant talent.
You point out something. Her brilliant talent is that she's totally comfortable performing totally stripped down with nowhere to hide - and when she made a mistake she just smiled and kept going. As a fan I'm perfectly happy to listen to the occasional honest mistake in order to get honesty through and through. I love Grace more than I've loved an artist in many years.
I can’t believe Grace’s talent. Her latest music (2021) is incredible and she’s not even 20. She’s a gift to all of us.
her low register, her falsetto, her rasp & her confidence. we stan a young vocal queen beyond her years
Like I'm a HUGE Amy Winehouse fan and yes what you just said is exact. Spot on! She just gives me the same feeling as Amy did. Love this girl!
@@taylorbohn3038 100x more class and humility than Winehouse though. That chick was a trainwreck and a half.
HeartlandRanchTV have some fucking respect to the artist that paved the way to a new kind of artist. Including grace van der waal and many others.
I think she is already the guitarrist b1tch... I'm sorry for her, she is singing with a masculine tone that is forced you can notice. The aesthetics of her say a lot too. She has a witchy dress and I don't like the body language of the guitarrist at all. I think Grace has lost her essence sadly
@@mauigna07 You have a sick mind
She has come sooo far. It's so easy to be forgotten when you come off a talent show. You're doing amazing sweetie.
Yep she is now the opener for Imagine Dragons.
wow opening for imagine dragons is definitely hitting the high point. can you even imagine?? opening for a band as illustrious, profound and substantial as imagine dragons? i think thats almost as good as opening for jessica von rabbit
wait, i DONT have to listen?
ask grace if she listens to sadomator
feg it what is your issue with Grace?? Someone sounds a little jealous...
Boy, if she can write something as deep and emotional as DKCM at the age of 13, can you imagine what she'll be writing when she's 20?
It can be deepest song in the world or more boring standard pop, who knows? but anyway, people these days drown in a cup of water so anything can be deep enough. As long as she doesn't change her style drastically she may be fine
Be here now >.
DKCM is a masterpiece. It’s amazing.
Yeah instead she just started making bubbly pop with imo a lot less heart. Idk if that's what she wants to be making or if it's industry stuff but either way it makes me kinda sad. Like people don't take her as seriously because of it
@@whatcanidooo I would not say The City and Poser are bubbly pop
In my opinion, this is the most important appearance on any show she's had so far. This is where music really lives.
Right on, I love Tiny Desk. Each episode is such a treat and really showcases the artists.
Hollywood please do not mess this girl up. She is actually talented.
Mutlu Sarıtaş we dont know that about her tho. She’s strong she’s got a hard mind. She knows what right. She’ll do just great
I think Grace is in control.
hah, don't think they could even if they wanted too XD
Mutlu Sarıtaş not al Disney child stars are ruined look at zendaya who is currently in Australia to get her award for woman of the year
I get the nature of what you’re saying. I’ve almost made my own comments on this video multiple times. But the spirit of your comment is powerful and positive enough that I’ve never wanted it to hide under another comment and nobody has highlighted it yet. I’m not all about trying to force others to believe the way I believe. I think the world is more beautiful with multiple views and cultures. Having said that... I’d like to share my view.
Cooperation’s and places on the map... locations... don’t cause destruction to people. People that see opportunities to use their power and influence cause destruction to people.
Walt Disney built Disneyland for the love of his dreams, family and children AND grandchildren. So it’s hard for me to hear so many seeing it be the capital that causes pain in families and children. He wanted to make an affordable place to find magic in the world. Where everyone, regardless of income, could come together in inspiration. He wanted them to fall in love with his imagination... not his image. If you’ve ever published your dreams into the world... even a comment you’ve made on RUclips, you can easily see the way your work can be perverted and twisted into an intention you didn’t have.
It’s sad that pedofiles opportunistically join where children are. Outside of schools you can see, easily, how many registered live as close to the radius they’re legally bound to. The same way people hungry for power and money congregate around affordable businesses that have promise. Opportunity to have access into such opportunities through work or connection to power isn’t much different. It makes sense that opportunities for artists are given by people who don’t have their best interest in mind.
You guys are amazing for speaking up and saying you don’t want that anymore!
I really don’t think shutting down Disney will create that kind of safety. But I think if we all buy from artists, and support companies that protect and provide protection for people we’ll take the power from those who don’t.
That might be too extreme for some people in the world. But writing emails to companies about what you want to see and what you don’t want to see happening is an easy way to help the correction. People sell what we’re willing to buy. People gain power with the money and influence we give to them. If you tell companies what protections you want to see, they do listen when the public need gets bigger than the expense of the protection we want to see in place.
Writing to Disney about wanting to see all people involved with children having background checks like our teachers get is a start. Or causing children to be in only group settings with an unbiased advocate for them?
Sadly, we’re even seeing educators have inappropriate relationships with students too. So there will always be a “ball dropped,” so to speak.
About Grace Vanderwaal... I hope her amazing family stays close enough to her to keep her grounded and protected. And I hope she’s blessed enough to grow up healthy and with out the hardships of depression or mental illness. Which often times is worsened severely by an unpredictable artist’s schedule and demands on performance. Living in the spotlight has to be one of the most difficult ways to keep yourself through scrutiny.
Thanks for sharing and letting me.
She's under 16 and has a rasp. It's fantastic. She's got music in her bones, I can't put words to her talent. It's kinda crazy
0:00 Moonlight
3:42 Darkness Keeps Chasing Me
9:21 Clearly
Thanks 👍🏾
Thanks
Somehow the guitar player looks like a mum or a very warm hearted teacher to me, who helps grace present her songs. I guess she's not, she's just her "band", but her posture and her looks and everything make me feel as if she's proud of grace and really supports her.
You're not wrong. Her name is Melissa Dougherty and among the many things that she is, she is a music instructor. She has also said that Grace is her favorite vocalist so I would say she is definitely very proud of her 🙂

Despite only one tour together, Grace's band is like family to her. Evident with most of them, including Grace, getting matching tattoo's at the end of the tour. Grace has become particularly close to her guitarist, as you have noticed. She's actually accompanied Grace to many small performances like this one, as her only musical back-up, also singing back-up on a few songs.
@@djmoon8373 Melissa and Ben have actually been on more than one tour with Grace, and so has Nolan actually if you count the Florence & the Machine tour and his brief trumpet performance for Grace's cover of "See You Again" during the Imagine Dragons Tour. As for the tattoo on her wrist that she shares with her brother and some of her band members, they actually got those in the middle of her Ur So Beautiful tour. At least, that's when fans became aware of the tattoo. It was around September 4th when we first saw it, and the last day of the tour was September 21st
NPR is the reason why I keep surprising my friends with powerfull unknown artists, thank you
I was surprised to see Grace VanderWaal in NPR. But in the end, it was a pleasant surprise to see how I can connect with her. She seems very mature. She has a beautiful voice and she's a true artist :)
okay :)
Welcome!
I am surprised as well.
Are you kidding me ,original song and a voice out of this world. at fourteen, this young lady should be a superstar. Her emotional interpretation and stage presence is that of an elite performer twice her age, She is completely in a class of her own. This kid is one of a kind no cookie cutter here
This girl can be compared to nobody. She is a force of pure, raw, talent. To be told your song is a “downer” is nonsense, it’s real, relatable and showcases such mature writing skills at a young age. The future is bright for this one
It almost hurts to listen to her sing, but in the most beautiful way. It gives me goosebumps. Great performance!
This child is beyond gifted. I’m so in awe of her every time she performs. She’s incredible!
"Darkness Keeps Chasing Me." Such a depth! Please, don't ever think it is a "downer," as some people tell you. This song is so real. It allows people to feel, and feel it all. We all feel like that at times, especially artists. To feel and to express it all, the way it is, no matter how dark, is not a "downer." It is freedom. And to hear this song performed so beautifully, emotionally, and honestly, as you did here is a true gift.
"freedom" the best word I've heard used to describe this amazing song.
Liliana Kohann wow love your comment, Freedom thanks for that
Thank you!!!
Check out Grace's newest upload, a recap of her performing at Madison Square Garden. t-shirt speak. :-) ruclips.net/video/pUZKOMPIKyw/видео.html
Oh, wow. I watched that video and wondered why you wanted me to see it. Now I noticed the last words in your comment "t-shirt speak" and immediately went to see the video and noticed the t-shirt. "Freedom" WOW!!! Thank you.
I could never forget this girl... The fact that she writes her own songs in like 20 minutes is almost unreal.. She has such an AWESOME personality!
I can not believe how much her whole presence has changed! She's def a star in the making
She may be beyond that idea of a star...
She's all ready a star in my ears.
Her little voice breaks make it even better
paulisthelegend Because she’s real!
They are so pure... love those little breaks.
I've been a fan from the beginning. There is something so special about her.
All of her music is special, but the writing and artistry of “Darkness” is a rare jewel.
She's ONLY 14 and yet so mature beyond her years. She's an amazing talent, so natural. You can see how she feels the music.
Amazing emotional maturity for someone so young
If there was ever someone who was completely 100% cut out for a certain direction in life, it's her. I mean you have to factor in her age , which makes her singing/songwriting THAT much more incredible. She is hardly a high school student, yet she appears so well reserved in how she is carrying herself. Very Passionate and is FULL of heart and soul which shows every time she opens her mouth. You can't teach someone to be that way. She's truly a gem!
Absolutely right, with one small correction. This was recorded a year ago March, she wasn't in high school yet. Which makes it even more impressive, of course.
This is an emmy award song, who else can put lyrics like this in to a song that has become iconic savior for so many of mental health challenges, what a genius!
"Darkness Keeps Chasing Me" - Wow... just wow
Justin Hayden ecsqezz me???
Why U 😂
That dress is m a g i c a l
Grace is M A G I C A L
The real reason I clicked play. So glad I did.
@@lia_overload OMG! I didn't read this before I made my comment....LOL! Always nice to know my quirky taste in clothing is shared.
Where is it from
The perfect dress for Stargirl!
first song: "Yeps she's good, let's hear more since i don't have anything to do"....last song : "She changed my life touching me in my deepest feelings * crying*"
I'm 26 years old and it's so refreshing to hear someone with such a mature voice at that age. And I love love love Darkness Keeps Chasing Me. That song gave me chills just from her voice alone and then I actually listened to the lyrics and was taken aback. What a force to be reckoned with. No bells or whistles just pure talent!
That is how I reacted to this song.
I was thinking what an awesome job she did singing this song, then saw your comment. Best live version I've heard from her....
I still get chills every time I listen to Grace singing Darkness Keeps Chasing Me. Maybe 'listen' isn't the right word - you 'experience' Grace's music.
i was blown away by her performance of DKCM.....heartfelt/heartwrenching, & it hits you like one is punched in the gut.....awesome rendition with just her GOD-given voice, & a guitarist (a good one) as accompaniment.....Grace, i love you to the moon & back.❤️🤗😍...GOD bless you abundantly!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 an ardent 63 year old fan here in 🇨🇦.....
My biggest comment here would be if this or the MTV video is better, either way, they are both WOW good.
Damn, wasn't expecting her to be THAT good!!
Welcome!
Is Just the Beginning
Found her by accident yr or so ago working up X's and Oh's for our ukulele club. What a surprise/pleasure/treasure/unexpected treat! Have become a big fan, too. Makes an old jaded rocker like me smile and slow down a little, also.
I never get tired of listening to Grace. And a huge admiration for the mesmerizing and talented Melissa Dougherty.
... and the lady of the guitar is so good and is seriously enjoying this...
Man she’s gonna go far. To be this talented and successful at only 14. Her lyricism and melody writing already great for her age and as long as she works on it she could become great period
This live version of Darkness keeps Chasing Me was epic!
Happydays all her performences are epic ❤
by the way grace if you ever read any of our comments, take note, Darkness Keeps Chasing Me. you may have been told its too depressing, but there are plenty who relate to it, and it helps people bigtime to escape, everyone needs something to relate too, thats what you give, keep doing it, its worth it all day long, i'm a 62 year old man and i think your the best thats come out for many many years,
I kind of feel like the entire music industry needs to form a protective barricade around this young woman. She is already better than a lot of world famous musicians and I cannot wait to see what she is going to do in the future
Mutlu, there are better causes that need help than this one
She' needs to be barricaded from people like Max Martin · Lukasz Gottwald who basically wrote a majority of the pop songs we hear on the radio today, and why it seems like all the music sounds the same, and is crap. Look them up on wiki for the songs they've written and the performers they've worked for. It will surprise you!
Can't see that ever happening Mut
Don't see that happening. She has been asked, given the terrible choice, what she'd be giving up, writing or performing. She said performing.
She has also very strong ideas about what things in life are worth pursuing, and chasing fame is not at the forefront.
Because the motivations of all humans are the same, right? Not so. Not by a wide margin.
She is growing up to be a beautiful young woman inside and out. I am excited to see where she is artistically in the next decade.
I don't want she grow up :c
data_analysis_ cosby calm down? All I said was I am curious to see where she stands as an artist in a decade. calm down, boy.
feg it oh poor thing... are you feeling ignored? Someone isn’t getting the attention they should be getting at home. If you need to talk I’m here for you
Michael Scott same
Pie de Limón yo tampoco 😂
Okay she’s the artist we need ❤️❤️❤️
How is this song DKCM not on the charts at no.1, just a Fantastic guitar player Malissa and Grace's fantastic voice! Thank you NPR for noticing this genius prodigy and her amazing friend Malissa!!
I was just looking at her Instagram and her new songs, her development is INCREDIBLE. she changed so much but that also shows how much then contract with agt built walls around her talent and creativity. Loved her back then and now!
I was so excited to see Grace at the Tiny Desk! She’s come a long way since America’s Got Talent and she just keeps getting better.
She expresses herself so beautifully through her music. Awesome stuff
As someone who has struggled with mental health issues since age 7, these songs really speak to me. God bless you Grace. Thank you NPR.
Keep strong, and God bless you too!!
Sweet , I’m glad I found this acoustic performance of Clearly , never expected her to take on that song with just guitar behind her. What pipes!!
Oh wow I remember Grace on Americas got talent when she was 12 and was the last time. Her voice is so iconic. Great work and amazing song writer 😀
See and hear and feel the depth of understanding...Grace is.
"I'm not sure if I can do it all alone
God, I want to be different
But I'm not sure if I can do it on my own"
An ideal setting for her as a venue bringing to the fore all her depth and personality.
Steven Boyd dang, that is true.
I’m glad she hasn’t gone commercial on us. She has stayed true. That Gibson Hummingbird is beautiful, and the player does it justice.
Melissa Doherty is a very accomplished artist with a beautiful voice and guitar skills unmatched by even male players. And she is Beautiful ❤️
I love that starry night dress..so pretty !
Oh That was so Amazing! Tears when She sang Darkness keeps chasing Me. Right when You think She couldn't get any better, She does this and Blows Your Mind 😲. Thank You Grace. That was Awesome! 👍💜
Can’t get enough of her talent❤️ so happy she’s finally here!!
Grace, all of us have the darkness chasing us from time to time. It's good to sing it, say it and let everyone know it's okay. It's okay not to be 100% happy all the time. It's the human condition and maybe, if it starts in a song, it will become okay to say and give to those who are having emotional difficulty. Wonderful song, wonderful message, wonderful young lady.
I died in 2013. Her song I Don’t Know My Name helped carry me through the all encompassing darkness that was my return. Thank you Grace.
this has got to be the sweetest voice i ve heard in my entire life
Mojodojo sweetest?
Powerful.
Her genius is her imperfections, it's what drew us to her . Always allow it to be apart of her creative endeavours and she'll make her own huge imprint on American music.
I know I am late coming in with my comments but I just found out about this jewel yesterday.
What a beautiful old soul she is! Clearly she is worth following & supporting her work!
Great call NPR!
Great comment on not only a great singer song writer but a beautiful human being, Darkness Keeps Chasing Me Is a song that has helped alot of people, All three songs are written by Grace, Moonlight is about mental illness, Clearly, the video is one of the best videos ever produced.
Clearly... Heh....
This girl made .e hold my breath when she sang on the tent show for her 1st time and the emotion she sings with my goodness her voice is amazing and so happy for her and her success
Grace is always the best acoustic....
John Smith so much better!
Agreed.
she has gotten to be so beautiful, and her vocal development oh my lord
FINALLY!! The very same guitar octave technique used in the Beatles "Blackbird" brought back to life in the song "Darkness Keeps Chasing Me". Epic!!
This remains my favorite Tiny Desk Concert of all times.
At Last, To see Grace sing Darkness in a setting like this! Great camera, Grace standing; full of confidence and she explains the conceptual process! Thanks Bob and welcome to GV!
NPR, It's about time you invited Grace to do a TINY DESK CONCERT! THANKS FOR UPLOADING THIS! Grace is EXTRAORDINARY!
Wow...can you imagine this young lady dropping by your office someday and doing this? The folks that were there got to witness something really special in person that only a handful of people will ever get to do. Color me jealous!
Darkness, the first time I heard the song, I cried, and couldn't believe how deep it was.
Darkness keeps chasing me give me chills... Grace 's voice is unique
Grace - You should make "Darkness" a staple in your performances. We identify with that "darkness" while still having plenty of light in our lives. Brought tears to this 60-year-old's eyes.
Beautiful!
Yes, WHEN I go see her perform, I need that song!!
This is my favorite Grace performance of all time! Just her and Melissa is an intimate setting! The picture and sound are superb! Grace is stunningly beautiful and the music showcases her most recent songwriting and singing! Grace is a gift to the world! She was born as the true spirit of music! I can't watch this without tearing up!
When I heard her sing DKCM on the rooftop I thought it was her best performance of this song. Now I'm not so sure. Never stop amazing us Grace.
Very refreshing to hear a young artist who takes her own course well off the beaten path. Some hope for the future.
WOW just WOW!!! I have not seen her for a while and she is an angel! Please do no let the music industry take away her raw talent! Let her be her!
The growth in such a short time is astonishing. At this age to have written and perform, with such emotional investment, a song like "Darkness" is incredible.
I love it at 12:40 when Grace catches herself starting to sing the original lyrics, corrects herself and then just laughs it off. A true professional. Can't wait for the new music
Grace, you are a beautiful soul. And no matter how you felt about this song at one time or another, i want you to know that this ONE song has brought me to me knees and made me get up when there is nothing left, I am 29 years old and i can't believe YOU are putting my emotions into words and perfect harmony, God love you girl. And yes some of us are old; but I'll tell you what, I bet your soul is older than all of us combined, that's a compliment 🥰. Keep going.
So elegant, full of poise, talent, and creativity. The best thing music has seen in decades!
Grace is the best folk singer to come along in many many decades. God Bless Grace and peace to her soul.
She is truly, truly special. I'm not much on gods, but she has been sent from somewhere beyond what we know.
The future of Alternative Pop is in great hands with Grace Vanderwaal. This girl is special. A true prodigy.
All this high pitches, melodic rhythm, angelical voice coming from her will
live in our hearts and our soul forever. It is now immortal and cannot die. If a song writer can do that. That is a divine intervention. Amazing....
Darkness is probably the best song I’ve ever heard in my life. Gorgeous voice.
Darkness keeps chasing me. One of the best written songs I have heard. Just about ever. She is just amazing. I'm choking up the WHOLE time I listened to this. Almost all of her songs. That voice!!!
The second song is a killer! She has an amazing amount of talent that is only getting stronger as she grows.
Young and talented. Her voice so raw so soothing to the ear. Love.
A Tiny Desk Concert. You are now part of music history. Congrats Grace!
That Guitarist is fantastic, love her.
Wow She's grown up a lot! I love that her music, writing and her voice has become even more sophisticated! I'm glad that you found out about her Tiny Desk!! In my opinion she's definitely one to watch in this coming years.
the world needs MORE of this.. Pure undeniable talent.. its that human spirit that we need more of. I hope she makes a difference for all of us. She definitely sings and performs from deep within and it resonates. the 191 who disliked this, all I have to say is "seek help" because if this doesn't move you or if you cannot recognize the talent, despite maybe not liking the songs, you are missing out.
I don't want to repeat myself, but she is just incredible. Set aside her personality, it's her significant, unique voice that keeps me shaking my head unbelievingly all the time while wondering about my goosebumps I even get while listening to the same video / song for the hundredth time .
Exactly what I love, a kind of minimalism, just like Tracy Chapman, Ed Sheeran, Jewel and other artists. You don't need autotune, nor an orchestra or special effects to improve this girl's performances / songs.
Her qualities as a songwriter and her ability to act as a role model to so many people with obvious, casual ease ensures that she will still be a star in 10, 20 years.
Grace is for real. What a unique and beautiful young lady. She writes incredible music and is the real deal. No phony marketing with this super talented genuine artist. The more I see her the more obvious is her amazing talent. Wow, she really touches me.
Grace is for real. She is a special young musician. Some people sound good for their age, Grace just sounds good.
Another Fan of the Ramapo concert, apparently. ;-)
There have been 5 people I have heard in my 52 years on this planet that have raised the hairs on the back of my neck from their voice. This very young lady is one of them. Get ready world, she has so much to show us.
Allie Sherlock is another one. She's not got the same attention as Grace does but she will soon. Allie also writes and sings and plays with abilities beyond her 13-14 years. Her vocals r also astounding as is Grace's
Who's the 4 others?
Ya, who are the other four?
the humility in her eyes melts me ♡
Thank you Grace for stepping out and performing the song, Darkness Keeps Chasing Me. It spoke much to me of where I'm at in my life and my experience with the darkness chasing me. At times, the things that give us the greatest grief or hindrances are the very things we are to do and become, because there is much to gain for ourselves and to a large scoop of people who are in need. You're quite the inspiration. Much Appreciated. Jim
Thank you for hosting Grace at the Tiny Desk. As someone who has followed her closely since her very first appearance on AGT, I can attest to how far she has come and how grounded she has remained. She has great songwriting chops (her strength) for someone so young, and her vocals continue to improve, though she retains the rawness and cutting edge that she has always demonstrated. I hope she will continue to pursue her dreams with passion and energy, and will continue to receive the guidance and support of her family, friends, and professional colleagues as she develops into the artist she wants to be.
Her voice is so raw and beautiful. She's improved so much and has loads of passion. Can't wait to still be buying her albums in 10 years.
Mutlu Sarıtaş Umm....what if she just continues to put out great music? 😂🤷🏻♀️
She's successful because she's authentic and writes her own music so I doubt her, or her label/management would ever change that. What makes you think she would ever not write/co-write her own lyrics? You must not have much faith in her if you think she's ever gonna lose what makes her style raw lmao
Mutlu Sarıtaş That's cool. 👍🏻 Grace's music will evolve because she's gonna grow up and change as a person and an artist, and I'm here for it. I'm not sure why we're even having a debate, but okay. Have a nice day! 😊
light and rebellion, at 61 years old I love Graces music and hope she continues to grow musically, what I think is funny is you think there's still "Album's", I came from a different generation in which Album=Vinyl not downloads...lol
Mutlu Sarıtaş you base your opinion which you share alot on Grace's video's,on your negative outlook on today's youth Grace is all about positivity and being the best you Not what others perceive So I believe like most Grace fans she will stay that way ,accept yhe positive attitude and leave your negative attitude to those who like to be controlled by the Machine
@@asosyalpicimamk Aside from the fake instruments thing, you're basically just describing recorded pop music of the last Century. Actually, artists of the past /wanted/ to sing about sex and drugs but they had to sell out and keep a clean image, disguise the true meaning of their songs behind sanitized lyrics in order to inoffensively keep selling records. The first radio hits-turned-record-sales by female singers were written by an old man lyrically exploiting the romantic ideals of young girls, lol. Remember Beach Blanket Bingo (think about what that name means, lol)? Marilyn Monroe? Janice Joplin? Madonna? Debra Paget? Joan Jett? Leslie Uggums? Celine Dion? Billy Holliday? Nothing new under the sun.. , this generation's problems are not new. Just evolved. But the same goes for this generation's virtues.
Grace is just unbelievable, how amazing is this girl?
This is the best version of Darkness Keeps Chasing Me. Sometimes simplicity brings out the best! Beautiful.
It's quite a bit faster than the original
yes, less is more............
