I just lost a friend in a motorcycle accident yesterday and I was right behind him riding and I saw everything happen and it replays in my head every single second and I heard him take his last breath and I still don’t know what I could have done more...he was my best friend from freshman year and we were gonna start our senior year...I will forever ride for him...
I hope you’re hanging on in there, there’s nothing you could have done more because it was out of your hands, I’m so sorry you’ve experienced such heartbreak first hand I truly hope you’re doing well
This has just made my day. I was watching his bootcamp group performance the other day wishing for a full cover of this song and we finally got one. His voice is just unreal wow
How To Save A Life was a song that got me through a lot as a kid, and James Arthur’s songs have done the same for me as an adult. This is an awesome cover
Joseph Hogg yeah, I checked it out! It was really good, I love his voice, it’s full of emotion just like James’. He was definitely holding back a bit with this one but I think he wanted to make it sound more like the original.
Omg ..... Is there anything that James can't do ..... This was so incredible ❤ He knows how to take others songs and make it his own 😊 I am super proud of him 💜 Love this so much 💙
Oh that’s so beautiful of him dedicating this to all the nurses and doctors working over the holidays. Peace to all and many blessings. This is one of my top favorite songs EVER.
Wow... have been waiting for James to cover this for a long time. Massive respect to the guy on the drums whom I believe does a lot of work alongside this awesome talent.. Daniel is either on the piano, drums or guitar. Please don’t forget how talented this unit is...👍
I love that in the final chorus, he performed very similarly to when he performed on XFactor. Ive been following ever since then, and to see him do his own cover is just awesome:)
wow jAMES......I just listened to this... amazing.. ..love it. Strangely, your drummer looks just my son Zach. My other son Jarrod... drums for a living and is killing it as well....... Good Luck.....DO WHAT YOU LOVE!!
i love when artists cover older songs, enough of current one-day-hits
I wanna like this comment but its at 420 :(

2 years later and it hasn’t changed.
not really an "older song"

His voice is perfect for this song!
Mia Mia
His voice is perfect for almost any song haha. Thats why he is my favorite singer. You are a legend James
Yes he is
♥️ Beautiful James' ♥️ breathtaking voice is perfect for every song. 🙏♥️🇺🇲✌
I love James .so underrated.best artist ever from that show he was too good for anyway.
@Baztian it's better.
Huge shout out to the drummer. The sound is so crisp and clean. Especially the snare
The drum sounding clean also depends on the mic quality 😅

I've waited for the version of this song made only by James since 2012 ... At last he arrived, he just sang a part of it in Xfactor
Manu Hermoso Ortega I know it's incredible. Made my day. 👌
Manu Hermoso Ortega He owned the part so much. I'm all excited. 😂😍
I was literally shaking when saw on twitter that he covers this song 😭
Manu Hermoso Ortega same! Soooo glad he did the whole song. What a voice!

He’s really not underrated at all
This has just made my day. I was watching his bootcamp group performance the other day wishing for a full cover of this song and we finally got one. His voice is just unreal wow
Jennah 0908 Made my day too. 😀
something I noticed about James, he almost always only sing songs that compliment his voice perfectly. Really smart man right there.
I just wanna give a shout out to the background vocalists. BBC Radio 1 has an amazing band and backing vocals in every video!
AshesPashes And james Arthur unique voice what a great great combination 🎶🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Agreed although the band is actually James' own band here 🙌
cat kilic you know their name and even ig?

LYNA LYNA thank youuu
I love his phrasing on this. He really delivered the song's message.
The x factor version I actually have no words to describe how good it is. Every person needs to hear it. That raw young voice.
Y’all killed it…..drummer plays super clean…sounds perfect
How To Save A Life was a song that got me through a lot as a kid, and James Arthur’s songs have done the same for me as an adult. This is an awesome cover
3:45 gets me everytime... sounds like he's part when they sang this song on Xfactor
I've been coming back here continuously for the last couple of days. Any James Arthur fan here?

Me too
His voice is so beautiful. Never stop making music Arthur
That last chorus. Took me back to 2012. Been waiting for this since. Killed it, yet again James.
WOW. Speechless.Only he could do this song justice with that voice 👏
Shraddha K check out ben monteith busking this ..
Joseph Hogg yeah, I checked it out! It was really good, I love his voice, it’s full of emotion just like James’. He was definitely holding back a bit with this one but I think he wanted to make it sound more like the original.
Wow. This is amazing!!! Brings back the feels too. 💖
He's ABSOLUTELY killing it 👍

The Fray would be proud of this
