The most beautiful thing about this song is that James always has tears in his eyes while singing this song. I really love his unique voice and his songs. I am so happy that I grew up with his music, it's so beautiful😍
He stopped singing so emotionally for a long time as he was getting a lot of criticism but has gone back to it now. His song Monsters is heart breaking.
The one thing that stands out for me is the gentleman in the grey, you see everyone with their phones not really connecting with he song but that man has lived this song he knows the pain that James so beautifully sings
Knowing that James Blunt served in Kosovo and wrote a heartbraking song about this time "No Bravery" listening to this song (live version on youtube) always brakes my heart.

I was going to mention No Bravery, especially the couple live solo piano pieces floating around, but you stole my thunder, lol. It's amazing how raw and emotive he is in them. It's impossible not to feel what he feels as he sings it. Music at it's purest level.
You shoul check out Monsters the official video. React to his singing when he is SO emotional. His producer wanted tune it in the studio but he didn’t want it. He wanted it to sound like it really felt for him.
I am very impressed with your video. So much videos similar to yours on RUclips where people try to over critique and cut the person down instead of appreciate their talent and uniqueness so nice job
@halichamney5337 That is incorrect. You're thinking about Monsters. Not this one. This is over a decade old lmao. Think you copied and pasted by mistake.
I love this song and you analyzing it just made my day. Maybe you could do Simply Red when they came to Viña del Mar, that was a live performance I will never forget.
Please react to his official Monsters video. He had a big fight with his label which he won. It was recorded in a single take without any cuts and no auto tune. Talking about emotions, have a box of tissues handy when you watch it.
I mean its 5:20 and im watching ur videos and just when i think to Subscribe i found this vid. Its amazing and the way you explain all the aspects of the sing makes me (an visual artist) understand. Greetings from México!
I'm happy to see you showcase a song by James Blunt that ISN'T Monsters. I see over a dozen James Blunt reaction videos in my recommendations, and Monsters is the only JB song they've listened to and commented. You also mentioned No Bravery, another great song. I love Monsters as well, but I feel Carry You Home, Wisemen, No Bravery, Same Mistake, Tears And Rain, and his cover of Crowded House's Fall At Your Feet are just as good, some even better. Music is my therapy, especially now. James Blunt's music is better for my mind than any drug I've been given by my therapist and oncologist. Also, 1973 is a catchy af song and a nice change for him.
what's interesting is that I see a similarity between his vowel shape to the way the BeeGees used to do it, Barry Gibb would sing usually in falsetto mostly but it was the same very peculiar vowel sound. Listening to the Brothers Gibb album where their songs are more acoustic, you can tell it's not only Barry, but the other brothers also had a similar sound, just a point to think about. Loved the video!
Thank you! The BeeGees would not only have similarities in vowel shape but also being brothers probably have similar vocal track and larynx shape and size which would give them all a similar sound.
@@BethRoars That would make a lot of sense! Tbh it's the first time I hear James Blunt, but that very unique sound that reminded me of the Bee Gees with his own individual spin really caught my attention. Thanks for the clarification!
He was a captain and his father was a colonel. The phrase “ you’re not my father, I’m not your son, we’re just 2 grown men saying goodbye” ( but reversed) is what they would say to each other when james was deployed for service. James fought in the war in Kosovo.
Please react to the song "É isso aí" with Seu Jorge and Ana Carolina. Both are really fantastic! Ana Carolina is one of the most complete singer in the world. Seu Jorge is a great singer and dancer too. He dances the rhythm of Samba like no one else :-) He was a homeless for many years until someone discovered his talent. He was living in a street with a bar with live music and the singer just invited him to sing a song without even knowing him. Well, he never stopped singing from that date onward. Now he is very famous in all Latin America, Africa and Europe. He is also a great actor!
Me encantan tus reacciones y si se trata del gran James Blunt, que mejor. Tu análisis es siempre muy acabado en cuanto a diferentes notas, melodías y rangos vocales utilizados por esta leyenda de la música internacional. Por supuesto ya estoy suscrito, saludos desde Chile.
Great reaction to such an amazing and emotional artist. Always like how you explain and break down their performances. Would like to see you react to Daneliya Tuleshova again. She has numerous covers and original music, but would like you to react to her recent covers of Diamonds and The Month of May. Very emotional covers.
I would really like to see her reaction to Whitney Houston singing the star spangled banner at the 92’ super bowl, the blend of vocal and instrumental harmonies makes a usually boring song transform into a tear inducing masterpiece.
If you manage to get a chance try reacting to his monsters video, Jesus it crippled me the watching it. As a grown ass Scotsman..... I cried ugly! Good luck.
Beth please you ve been away From metal scene for such a long time! Please react to Slaughter to prevail- demolisher, you Will be blown away by the lead singer’s vocal hability! Love you reactions btw!
I have very good memories with this song since my wonderful and cute British senior students played it to my on my last Spanish lesson day. I dropped some tears hehe. Could you please react to 'como yo te amo' by Ruth Lorenzo homenaje a Mónica Naranjo? Ruth sings so well and beautifully here that you'll fall in love with her hehe. Greetings from Spain and keep it going!
I'm so glad you mentioned "No Bravery", such a powerful song. I don't know if you've ever looked at this: Jimmy Somerville in 2014, sounding as good as he did decades earlier! ruclips.net/video/CNhLOfUPHa8/видео.html
I remember you liking the Nordic/pagan songs that have been requested over time. You should react to Heilung - "Norupo" Its very cool, and I think you'd enjoy it
He is criminally underrated as a performer and writer. What a great guy too. You should do monsters by him. It hits pretty hard, or no bravery.
The Radio 2 lockdown performance of No Bravery for Ken Bruce is something. I've never seen him angry before.
He always is able to drag you into his songs. It never leaves me cold.
Best song writer and live performer of our generation!
Never leaves me Yellow, either.
This is one of the most touchin emotional songs by James Blunt
For me it is Monsters since for me it hits so close, and sadly I can relate to the lyrics
The most beautiful thing about this song is that James always has tears in his eyes while singing this song.
I really love his unique voice and his songs. I am so happy that I grew up with his music, it's so beautiful😍
Literally one of my favorite videos on the internet. His emotion is so real it's unbelievable!
I think this is one of his best performances. I love him and have for years. This is an unforgettable one for me with him.
I adore this version. Thank you for examining it.
Thank you for watching!
@@BethRoars Beth , I doubt it , but are you single? you are perfect :) and amazing singer
He stopped singing so emotionally for a long time as he was getting a lot of criticism but has gone back to it now. His song Monsters is heart breaking.
Are you sure someone criticizes you for showing your emotions in your songs? That's one aspect I love about him.
The one thing that stands out for me is the gentleman in the grey, you see everyone with their phones not really connecting with he song but that man has lived this song he knows the pain that James so beautifully sings
Knowing that James Blunt served in Kosovo and wrote a heartbraking song about this time "No Bravery" listening to this song (live version on youtube) always brakes my heart.
No matter how many times I see this, still feel the emotion in his voice 🥺. And cry 😭

Can you look at Ben Howard ‘End of the Affair’. It’s another fantastic performance. It’s on Jools Holland.
Such an emotionally strong song and it gets even more powerful with Roar's charismatic comments!
Thank you!
When did Amy Adams start to make youtube videos?
It’s obviously Isla Fisher.
James Blunt is amazing, he always makes my eyes leak 😢
😭
And legs weak
@@petershury7135 arms are heavy
Thanks Beth. I didn't knew about this absolutely emotional performance from James Blunt
Thank you for watching!
So emotional. He doesn't bullshit you. If he does, then he should become an actor immdediately
This has been the best, most interesting analysis of a vocal performance that I've seen on RUclips (and I've been looking). Well done! Thank you :)
I was going to mention No Bravery, especially the couple live solo piano pieces floating around, but you stole my thunder, lol. It's amazing how raw and emotive he is in them. It's impossible not to feel what he feels as he sings it. Music at it's purest level.
you know, the greatest skills and asset of james is emotions, you cant teach that
You shoul check out Monsters the official video. React to his singing when he is SO emotional. His producer wanted tune it in the studio but he didn’t want it. He wanted it to sound like it really felt for him.
Really got into James Blunt's music lately. Not sure what's more beautiful, his lyrics, or Beth's hair?
Nice to see a video with James Blunt not having a single dislike
Finally finished the video. What a beautiful performance!
I am very impressed with your video. So much videos similar to yours on RUclips where people try to over critique and cut the person down instead of appreciate their talent and uniqueness so nice job
After all these years I had no idea that he was a Captain in the Army O_O
Also was credited with helping to stop a war with Russia in an airport encounter
Blunty is incredible. Why people didn't leap out of their seats to applaud him, I'll never know. I did.
How did I miss this one? Fantastic. I was in Balkans too. I love James Blunt.
The best vocal analysis on one of the best vocalists that I have ever seen or heard.
He's a British commander alright. Look at him.
James has one OF the most Beautiful and unique Voice
He is simply amazing ,needs an O.B.E
listening to him in live performances is waaay better than in in cd's. I love him so much. No bravery is one of my favourite songs of his
I've always been curious who he thinks about when he sings that song... that emotion, is too real.
@halichamney5337 That is incorrect. You're thinking about Monsters. Not this one. This is over a decade old lmao. Think you copied and pasted by mistake.
@@Lb_Collectsyeah actually I didn’t copy paste. The video changed automatically to the next song and I didn’t realize it 🤦♀️
Fair enough, no worries :)@@halichamney5337
A unique and truly remarkable voice... James reminds me of a young Cat Stevens
Brings me to tears everytime ❤
Love love James Blunt. Always.
I love this song and you analyzing it just made my day. Maybe you could do Simply Red when they came to Viña del Mar, that was a live performance I will never forget.
James blunt is so underated it...
This may be a stretch but if u think about it James probably have one of the most iconic voices ever - you know its him straight away🔥❤
Happy 50 birthday to James!
Please react to his official Monsters video. He had a big fight with his label which he won. It was recorded in a single take without any cuts and no auto tune. Talking about emotions, have a box of tissues handy when you watch it.
Beautiful song, beautiful reaction, beautiful reactor :)
He jumps into the emotion and passion. That is something unusual.

Love James Blunt. Beautiful singer. Beautiful pianist. Looks like he's got a spray tan.
I love this song! Good choice!
Superb singer unbelievably good find that more sad than his Monsters song but if you lost someone that song is cathartic & comforting

His singing style is absoltuely unique tho, I couldnt name anybody else perofmirng like that. Sb has suggestion?
No Bravery is beautiful? No, it's brutal, heart wrenching. The only song I know that actually shows some of the horrors of war.
You're totally right it's all emotion ..
I had no clue he was in the army. This was a great performance.
He stopped world war 3 apparently by refusing an order to attack russian troops in kosovo in the late 90's.
He was a captain and his father was a colonel. The phrase “ you’re not my father, I’m not your son, we’re just 2 grown men saying goodbye” ( but reversed) is what they would say to each other when james was deployed for service. James fought in the war in Kosovo.
So beautiful but sad at the same time this song...
He's probably more known as a singer now than the army
Your subcounscious will always scream how talented he is
You should React To Monsters By James, wow that's a great song.
Those who can do, those who can't teach!
This was very nice. Thank you.
I like your comments better than the song. You did it more than justice.
Thank you!
You really need to check out Monster by Mr Blunt. So emotional it will bring you to tears

He has a good voice tbh
You have a beautiful soul!!
Thank you!
omg I just realized we are wearing the same headphones. Nice. That means I have good taste.

Bawling my eyes out
I fucking love this video from James.
❤️
Stereophonics - handbags and the gladrags or their cover of free fallin’ are both incredible
You should hear "Nunca es suficiente" Natalia lafurcade and angeles azules, that ladys voice is worth hearing
do a video of John Frusciante, he is the guitar player from RHCP, he has his songs and he sings like a angel. Thanks!!
THis for example: ruclips.net/video/-tKQWvNZT0k/видео.html
Rodrigo Moreira yeahhhh!!!!
Thank you.

A voice that I love to hear is Gene Chandler in Duke of Earl.
Monster by James blunt makes me cry 😭

Keeping the proportions, it reminds me of Riccardo Cocciante's intensity on the piano.
Wow 👍🙏🌍✔️👋👋👋
A new female fronted band from Reading England is Marisa and the Moths. Please check out their videos of Slave, Choke or Skin. Thanks!

Peter Gabriel (e.g. Book Of Love)
Björk (e.g. Human Behaviour)
...
First time I heard him, ("You're Beautiful") I was quite sure it was a woman singing. I lost a bet to my GF, because of him.
I like Jo Cocker I believe you would sing it wonderfully .
Thank you
