@@orrayrru7024 lol he definitely didnt mean smth bad. what he means is that with that great voice, why did he still started as a producer but not a singer. think before you leave your "kind" comments on the interweb
@@edwardchen9619 he is right tho his voice has been in his music even on his earlier releases, so no he isn't just a producer and didn't just start out as a producer so u need to do some research before u comment thanks!
Not the particular tune, not the chords, not the counterpoint and harmony, not the mastery of production, not the creative musical genius (that he is)...Just the honest words and the naked flowing vocals, and POW, we are right there with him. Proving? The source of all this is in the heart? Yes.
Just caught this performance of the song for the first time today. This composition makes the lyrics more raw and intimate. It brought me to tears. I love it!!
Are you in love? Do your best impression for me I try my hardest for you Are you in love? Are you in love? Are, are we as one? Everythin' desperate lives behind Don't take away this one defense of mine I reserve the right to disappear I reserve a table for old time Back then, it wouldn't have even crossed my mind But I promise you, your place is safe Now, what about mine? Unless you can calm my mind for me This could easily slide, it could slide from me This could easily slide, it could slide from me Into borrowed time Borrowed time, borrowed time, borrowed time, borrowed time No idea how many lied to me But the memory survived, survive in me It's all on thin ice, thin ice, thin ice Your answer will die, will die with me Are you in love? Do your best impression for me I try my hardest for you Are you in love? Are you in love? Are you in love? Do your best impression for me I try my hardest for you Are you in love? Are you in love?
@@cyruscollin7948 That's awesome! Unfortunately, it started storming and as I was going to walk (a bit more than a mile) I decided to stay home and do work, so didn't make it over there :-( I got a lot done but also wish I had been able to attend :-)
@@baptizednfire I'm so glad you had a great time! It was transcendent, to me. I think maybe it was for you too. I don't mean to make that sound grandiose and over the top, bit it really was. I didn't cry but at yhe expense of sounding a bit woowoo, I could feel the music in my spirit. Lol. It was bananas and beautiful and something we need to experience again.
C'est magnifique : la voix le plus beau des instruments ! J'ai eu la chance de vous écouter aux nuits sonores le jour de mon anniversaire : le plus beau des cadeaux ! En excellente compagnie. Revenez à Lyon dans une belle salle ! Please ! Thanks for Sharing !
I can't believe the way he flows
timeless
Did you just...
ya, it's almost like he assumes form
I can't believe how well I flow. When will I get the recognition for my fluidity?
I see what you did there haha
With a voice like that it's funny that he started as strictly a producer
@@orrayrru7024 lol he definitely didnt mean smth bad. what he means is that with that great voice, why did he still started as a producer but not a singer. think before you leave your "kind" comments on the interweb
@@edwardchen9619 cuz the only way to not end up a puppet and fullfill your artistic vision is doing all by yourself.
@@soaribb32 well im not the one who asked u can tag the other one that asked...

@@Time2WakeUp95 no no no that's not my argue point...anyways I dont wanna get into a fight like I fellas so yeah imma back off and fuck it
His live vocals are even more pristine than on the studio tracks!!
word, the sign of a true vocalist fr
YES
Its so humbling seeing him just standing and singing.
oh and snapping
@@FajneTVnoigit snapping both literally and figuratively XD
How much talent did he posses that sound the same as the record song
Ashley Winston it's so cool cause he's always been like that!
Not the particular tune, not the chords, not the counterpoint and harmony, not the mastery of production, not the creative musical genius (that he is)...Just the honest words and the naked flowing vocals, and POW, we are right there with him. Proving? The source of all this is in the heart? Yes.
His song "Barefoot in the park" with Rosalía is amazing, too. Two really captivating voices together
Failed relationship, Wedding, honeymoon, baby birth playlists are/will be 100% James Blake guaranteed
Haha James was def the playlist to the birth of my son
"Wow" is the word.
The middle third section - I’m not sure it can get any better than this
この人本当に天才。
It’s not even funny how much I admire this man.
SAME
Love this so much. I have listened to this rendition on LOOP x100. Thank you James!
Holy shit he is amazing
Just caught this performance of the song for the first time today. This composition makes the lyrics more raw and intimate. It brought me to tears. I love it!!
James is flourishing and I’m here for it 👏
this is his worst album ever -.-
Yoshi Ortiz why is that?
@@Nerufox-b9d He just dumbed down his melodic style so this material would appeal to the mainstream normies... which sucks.
Yoshi Ortiz strongly disagree but respect your opinion nonetheless!
Ugh, the king of phrasing and breathwork.
I saw this man at Electric Picnic and honestly up there with seeing Frank Ocean, James you're a genius
"Are you in love? Do your best impression for me." Love that
The fact that this crowd did not give him a standing ovation makes me SICK!!
Definitely one of the best voices today. That was crazy.
i could sleep while listening to him singing forever.
The finger snapping makes it more soulful
if i could attend a gig with just his voice and the assume form album i think i would transcend to heaven right then right there
Instant tears, his live performances seem to successfully pierce through the heart
I genuinely watch this everyday..
if you can't hear perfection of this man....can you hear at all....I wonder
I DIDN'T EVEN LIKE THIS SONG THAT MUCH ON THE ALBUM. I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO THIS NOW.
Legit same 😍
haha yeah the live versions have that insane power
His voice sounds even richer live
Are you in love?
Do your best impression for me
I try my hardest for you
Are you in love?
Are you in love?
Are, are we as one?
Everythin' desperate lives behind
Don't take away this one defense of mine
I reserve the right to disappear
I reserve a table for old time
Back then, it wouldn't have even crossed my mind
But I promise you, your place is safe
Now, what about mine?
Unless you can calm my mind for me
This could easily slide, it could slide from me
This could easily slide, it could slide from me
Into borrowed time
Borrowed time, borrowed time, borrowed time, borrowed time
No idea how many lied to me
But the memory survived, survive in me
It's all on thin ice, thin ice, thin ice
Your answer will die, will die with me
Are you in love?
Do your best impression for me
I try my hardest for you
Are you in love?
Are you in love?
Are you in love?
Do your best impression for me
I try my hardest for you
Are you in love?
Are you in love?
The tears are just falling out

Jesus bloody Christ, James. Now I want a live album! Also, South Africa loves you, come through

James Blake is 1950s crooning and 1970s soul deconstructed and reconstituted into something completely fresh
I know It was the best stage I've ever seen/ and will change my life indefinitely.
