FINALLY SOMEONE WORTH LISTENING TO SINCE THE 90'S ! Thought it would never happen!!! From the first song I heard , he had me hooked!! already have him o my playlist! LOVE this guy!! Thanks JAMES BAY for giving us something new and raw and refreshing !!
I picture being him. Running into her, young love, failed love. I picture it being my fault. We hang out all night and just talk, reminisce about the past and I get home around 2am. I'm tired, but I know I will likely never see her again and I know that if I go to sleep I will never feel exactly the way I feel right now. I grab the guitar and a notepad and I write it all down. This is what I'd imagine I'd write down. James Bay - If You Ever Want To Be In Love. The story for us all. Just absolutely perfect.
Sometimes I find myself just listening to James Bay for a whole week or two. My friends can't understand why, it's the emotions and stories that you can just feel and visualise delivered by his voice paired with the lyrics. *sigh* I don't know who or when I'm getting married but I want James to be there
I am not sure if you (James Bay) will ever read this but your words and the way you convey your feelings through your voice have inspired me and helped me in so many ways. I just want to say thank you for existing and sharing your beautiful lyrics. Thank you. I am and forever will be a true fan of yours and your lyrics.
This artist is one of the better singer songwriters that I have heard in along time. Original soulful voice and willing to take chances with alternate tunings of guitar to produce a more robust sound. Like! Like!. Trying to catch this guy live. Everywhere is sold out! He is a really great guitar player! Seen him with Buddy Guy on a video. Keep on keeping on Mr. Bay!
"If You Ever Want To Be In Love" Saw you today after so much time Felt just like it used to be Talking for hours bout a different life Surrounding us in memories We were close, never close enough Where are we now 'Cause if it's torn we can stitch it up Don't rule it out Oh no no I'll come around If you ever want to be in love I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up If you ever want to be in love I'll come around Wanted to ask if we could have been But my tongue wouldn't break the seal You always had something effortless At school you were the biggest deal Little quirks close and open up Time is slipping by Always thinking 'bout the two of us Replay on my mind Always playing on my mind I'll come around If you ever want to be in love I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up If you ever want to be in love I'll come around We were young, we were side by side Don't know when we started losing touch If you want we could walk around Maybe that would be enough Used to talk drinking to the night I would wake up on the front room floor All along you'd be in my bed Make me crazy make me want you more I'll come around If you ever want to be in love I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up I'll come around If you ever want to be in love I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up If you ever want to be in love I'll come around You're welcome :)
Imagine listening to this song for years & being reminded of a “certain someone” you’ve known since childhood… and then after 26 years you’re finally on a date with them- and this song starts playing in the restaurant. It’s stuff like this that makes me believe in destiny & fate.
So in love with him! And I only discovered him last week! Since then I've purchased everything I can get my hands on! Been listening to him night and day... there is a healing in his voice/music.
This song is 😮💨 It says everything in all the situations you’re going thru. God damn you, James. Stop being so god damn beautiful with your words 😮💨😮💨😮💨
This is one of the best songs I have ever heard, perhaps because I can relate to it so much. However, that doesn't take away from the purely beautiful lyrics and excellently executed vocals by James Bay. Praise to you for such a masterpiece.
this song is so beautiful acoustic, love both versions but the acoustic version really brings out the meaning of the lyrics and his voice conveys the emotion better when he sings acoustically :)
I heard him playing on the speakers in Barnes and Noble. Needless to say that cd was a must have. I've listened to it everyday since then. I like every song. But Let it go is my go to song. 😊
His voice is total perfection. I love his acoustic versions. He's always singing so emotional it's just NO WORDS FOR THIS FREAKING BEAUTIFUL VOICE OF AN ANGEL
lyrics Saw you today after so much time and it felt just like it use to be Talking for hours about a different life, surrounded us in memories We were close never close enough, where are we now Cause if it’s torn we can stitch it up, don’t rule it out Oh, no no chorus And I’ll come around if you ever wanna be in love I’m not waiting but I’m willing if you call me up If you ever wanna be in love, I’ll come aroundverse2 Wanted to ask if we could’ve been, but my tongue wouldn’t break the seal You always had something effortless, in school you were the biggest deal Now little cuts close and open up and time is slipping by And I’m always thinking about the two of us, you play on my mind, always playing on my mind chorus Oo, oo, oo Bridge Now we were young we were side by side don’t know when we started losing touch But if you want we can walk around, maybe that would be enough We use to talk, drink into the night, and I would wake up on the front room floor. And all along you’d be in my bed made me crazy made me want you more And I’ll come around if you ever wanna be in love I’m not waiting but I’m willing if you call me up I’ll come around if you ever wanna be in love
this song! You wrote a song about me and my husband. we used to eat lunch in high school together and I didn't know he liked me. i was a cheerleader. after high school we didn't talk for 9 years then rekindled on myspace and talked for 12 hours on the phone. he'd eventually stay the night in my living room while I slept in my bed.
perfect love story and I admire the both of you for that. i just hope when i visit greece that my man is still waiting there for me even though i told him not to wait anymore 💔 i like him and might love him even, but time wasn't just right for us at the moment...
+Joy Ward I agree. Divorce lawyers are very expensive. That's why I called Kevin Hogan Attorney. Not only did he charge a reasonable price, but he also lowered my alimony costs. Thanks Kevin!
just send all your stuff to this email she loves this kinda stuff flame28212@aol.com she will love you for this stuff she wanted me to send her people that posted porn and porn videos so please send her all y ou got and find her on facebook to put on her wall her name is Michonne Sherlicia Kenan she loves this stuff porn and anything nasty she loves
The person this song is dedicated to might just be the luckiest person alive
No that’s me 🔥🔥❤️💫
This is the type of song you listen in your bed with your lights off, closed eyes and nothing else
you are right my dear 😌👌
relaxing guitar
I listened to it while walking, riding my bike..., sometimes cooking and sometimes I just sing it outloud as I get weird looks from my family
Exactly !
I was thinking about droping homework and do just that
I'm just obsessed with this guy. He's so good, I can't even. Doesn't matter how often I hear his beautiful voice, it leaves me speechless everytime.
He's soul is so mysterious and beautiful at the same time.. Discovering him is the best thing which happened to me for the last few years..
Damn...me too🥺😍😍

Reminiscent of Jeff Buckley.
GOD I LOVE HIS VOICE I DIDNT KNOW OR THINK HE WAS THIS GOOD LIVE OMG MORE LIKE JAMES BAE
his cheek bones are gorgeous , and so is this song
this actually made me cry
this is the best song I've heard in my entire life
+Bella Thomas

I will always come back to this one 😭❤️
"If You Ever Want To Be In Love"
Saw you today after so much time
Felt just like it used to be
Talking for hours bout a different life
Surrounding us in memories
We were close, never close enough
Where are we now
'Cause if it's torn we can stitch it up
Don't rule it out
Oh no no
I'll come around
If you ever want to be in love
I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up
If you ever want to be in love
I'll come around
Wanted to ask if we could have been
But my tongue wouldn't break the seal
You always had something effortless
At school you were the biggest deal
Little quirks close and open up
Time is slipping by
Always thinking 'bout the two of us
Replay on my mind
Always playing on my mind
I'll come around
If you ever want to be in love
I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up
If you ever want to be in love
I'll come around
We were young, we were side by side
Don't know when we started losing touch
If you want we could walk around
Maybe that would be enough
Used to talk drinking to the night
I would wake up on the front room floor
All along you'd be in my bed
Make me crazy make me want you more
I'll come around
If you ever want to be in love
I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up
I'll come around
If you ever want to be in love
I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up
If you ever want to be in love
I'll come around
You're welcome :)
Thank you!!
Aidi Happysmile thanks, I needed it ❤️
Thank You 🙏🙂
so beatiful voice! I just fell in love with those emotions in that voice. stunning
Imagine listening to this song for years & being reminded of a “certain someone” you’ve known since childhood… and then after 26 years you’re finally on a date with them- and this song starts playing in the restaurant. It’s stuff like this that makes me believe in destiny & fate.
This song makes me miss that “special” person that i lost:/
hello Virginia how are you doing today ???
@@georgecampbell1275 I’m well, thank you. Was just thinking about this “certain someone” that’s mentioned in my comment 🥰
Hope you are well, too.
@@virginialouey4039 yeah i’m fine hope you’re doing ok over there i wish we could be friends and also get to know each other better
You cant make this stuff up.
So many talents flows around out there, but not many can make lyrics like this man! Tallyhooooo
I've completely fallen in love with this guy over the past couple of days, it's crazy
Folke Koster Your comma splice is crazy.
His voice is OUT OF THIS WORLD!
He’s a complete artist. His music just gets to your heart.
hello how are you doing today???
I agree
@@georgecampbell1275 you don't need to know
this dudes soooo good. I wish id have heard of him like 5 years ago, hes that good!
Great voice and insanely good looking dude.
tell me about ittt 😱😍
you look just like him!
+Andrew Menzak i hope you know it's james bay in his pic:D
Are you gay?
His voice is out of control amazing. Damn baby.
I recognize him by his guitar playing. He has his own way and sound. There's something. Brilliant guy.
This is beyond amazing I just don't have words right now
He sings with such raw emotion. Beautiful and amazing talent
Followed him since Soundcloud and here he is. Go James Bay.
James Bay is quality, his voice is unreal, songs catchy and heartfelt and really clever lyrics.
James Bay is the artist I refuse to tell anyone about, cos his music is that special to me!!!!
What a great song! Just goes to show you that you don't need much at all to create some magic.
Very nicely said.
Well put
that guy is a total package, he writes incredible lyrics, he has a sexy voice tone, he plays guitar so well and he's so down to earth.
So in love with him! And I only discovered him last week! Since then I've purchased everything I can get my hands on! Been listening to him night and day... there is a healing in his voice/music.
I just can't..i loove this song..i keep listening since forever..his voice..omg..i can't
Every little thing about James Bay is beautiful.
He voice give me the chills I mean just hold me in your arms and sing this song to me❤️❤️
James Bay songs are just perfect for walking alone at 10 PM with no one there and just wandering and contemplating everything..
4 years later I'm here again, with a different person in mind. I guess that gives me comfort that you can in fact get over someone you used to love.
His voice is like.... steak. Hearty, textured, savory, meaty. Delicious. Or maybe I'm just hungry.
Hahahaha, what a steak!
Best comment Ever !!!
nah you thirsty!!
Haha…LOL!
matt hagan same diff
what an amazingggg voiceee.o god im so in love
Beautiful - "I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up
If you ever want to be in love
I'll come around"
Close my eyes and its mix between james bay and mr big. Both of you are legend
Love
When I saw him play this live he said "this is the one the boyfriends in the audience hate me playing"
I understand why. Lol. OMG. He's a treat. 💕
Haha! Too right
One of the kindest, grounded people
When a song explains your exact feelings ;~;
literally EXACT.
This song is 😮💨
It says everything in all the situations you’re going thru.
God damn you, James.
Stop being so god damn beautiful with your words 😮💨😮💨😮💨
Wow, I can't get over him. He is just perfect. His voice is like the soft cold rain on a winter's night.
I just need to see him in concert already 😭😍💕
This is one of the best songs I have ever heard, perhaps because I can relate to it so much. However, that doesn't take away from the purely beautiful lyrics and excellently executed vocals by James Bay. Praise to you for such a masterpiece.
his music gives me butterflies. love!!
this song is so beautiful acoustic, love both versions but the acoustic version really brings out the meaning of the lyrics and his voice conveys the emotion better when he sings acoustically :)

lyrics
Saw you today after so much time and it felt just like it use to be
Talking for hours about a different life, surrounded us in memories
We were close never close enough, where are we now
Cause if it’s torn we can stitch it up, don’t rule it out
Oh, no no
chorus
And I’ll come around if you ever wanna be in love
I’m not waiting but I’m willing if you call me up
If you ever wanna be in love, I’ll come aroundverse2
Wanted to ask if we could’ve been, but my tongue wouldn’t break the seal
You always had something effortless, in school you were the biggest deal
Now little cuts close and open up and time is slipping by
And I’m always thinking about the two of us, you play on my mind, always playing on my mind
chorus
Oo, oo, oo
Bridge
Now we were young we were side by side don’t know when we started losing touch
But if you want we can walk around, maybe that would be enough
We use to talk, drink into the night, and I would wake up on the front room floor.
And all along you’d be in my bed made me crazy made me want you more
And I’ll come around if you ever wanna be in love
I’m not waiting but I’m willing if you call me up
I’ll come around if you ever wanna be in love
You are the reason we can have nice things.
Acoustic music is something totally different, like a soul balsam.
this song! You wrote a song about me and my husband. we used to eat lunch in high school together and I didn't know he liked me. i was a cheerleader. after high school we didn't talk for 9 years then rekindled on myspace and talked for 12 hours on the phone. he'd eventually stay the night in my living room while I slept in my bed.
That is a very nice story.
+Joy Ward Such a nice story
perfect love story and I admire the both of you for that. i just hope when i visit greece that my man is still waiting there for me even though i told him not to wait anymore 💔 i like him and might love him even, but time wasn't just right for us at the moment...
