I can't stop listening to this. Leon Bridges has so much soul and his vocals are smooth as silk. The band is awesome and the background singers are doing their thing. I actually think they should all go on a tour together. This was absolutely perfection. Love it!!!!
Alma Salgado What has Trump done...created a million jobs, kicked illegals out, and bombed an empty airbase in Syria and NOT drone bomb innocents? Fucking idiot.
You are a fucking not making yourself seem very intelligent. Lol war criminal? You are a riot. I hope for your sake you have some sort of disorder and it really isn't that you are that dumb.
The last time I heard perfection from a band, background singers and the lead singer was at a Luther Vandross concert. Time to take this show on the road.
+MIMI88998899 say him live.......he doesn't do much on stage, but he doesn't have to, listen to him sing is enough. He rocks it live, no autotune, no taped vocals, he can rock it live. I'm glad I saw him when it was cheap because that might be last time I see him for that price. Kid is blowing up....and he should
Justin Time Your Mr president relief program stole homes from 5 million Americans and gave the money to Wall Street bankers. Look up HAMP program please.
An old soul, in a young body. Definitely born in the wrong time....his voice is amazing, sultry, smooth and he plays the guitar like he sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads in Mississippi.(Figuratively Speaking)... Love this guy!!!!!!! Bought a few of his CD's....great listening!!
I saw this brother at Radio City Concert Hall in New York City, I went solo, and I had a fantastic evening. My girlfriend keep texting me. She thought I was entertaining another girl, I said I just wanted to be a lone It was one of the best evenings I ever had.
When I used to work nightshift security guard for properties I would always sing this song while doing my rounds. Guess I was hoping, if there's an intruder, he would jump out singing the second voice with me :) This song and Oh Susanna. Those were my patrol songs. When workers heard that song they knew they were safe :) Good times, great job. Might do it again one day.

No way I would love to do that
Silver Gaming you would love to go to high school with a 28 year old?

I'm a new fan. Love this stuff.
The White House will probably never have so many diverse talented people in it again. Historic 8 years that I miss greatly.
And somehow people can't comprehend that.
Obama's loving it! Barack and Roll!
Nice one
LOVE IT--Barack and Roll! Epic turn of phrase!
Say what you want about his presidency, but no one brings the cool like the Obamas! They know how to enjoy themselves and it's wonderful to see.
eval1979 v have you've not seen what Donald trump has done

Jesus isn't real and your ideas of what Trump has done are not either.
duck (duck)🤔 you have probably the most fitting name on here with that comment.😂😅 LoL
He is smooth as hell
Street Fighter Kidd Unlike Ken Masters
Almost as smooth as the drone strikes killing innocent people in their sleep...
@@BigHank75 lol
yet so young.
National treasure!
Man, I look at this somewhat bitter sweetly. Back when we had a president with class and soul. The good ol days.
😢
Amen!

+MIMI88998899 Leon is the coolest fucking guy out there right now. Can't wait til he hits Miami in September. Got my tickets.

Andro Libre Yes I am going to have to see him live.
Anybody else just absolutely thrilled to see this taking place in the White House?
Another reason to love Obama: for supporting amazing artists like Leon, he's the best!
Yess♥️♥️♥️ Obama will be forever missed he was the best😁♥️♥️♥️
This young man was born in the wrong era. Much Love for keeping the blues alive!
he was born in the perfect era!
He was born for this era! :) He's keeping soul music alive & burning!
There is no wrong era for Leon.
born at the right time, many are fading away, new life new blood.. i'm not necessarily a blues fan but hot damn..
dude! wrong way of thinking about it. back then they didn't need him. but boy do we need artists like him now.
"Thank you Mr. President"
Justin Time Your Mr president relief program stole homes from 5 million Americans and gave the money to Wall Street bankers. Look up HAMP program please.
Justin Time For what?
"Thanks Obama."
Justin Time yes Indeed
Wanna know just how good the music is?? Check out the faces of the musicians as they all jam together!! Absolutely priceless!!!! :)
That sax solo though ;)
So very impressed with this young man!
❤️
Some singers seem to be in the wrong era. But I'm so glad he has such soulful voice.
Are you Indian
This was a very good rendition of brother Charles..Hope he continues the good work...
He definitely has..

Can honestly say, that I’ve never seen a president that can keep a beat until now.
2:09 Oooowee! that sax nasty!... love it!
Leon is such a nice young man......you want your daughter to date him
Man - Leon Bridges is smooooth. Bringing some old school winning! Oh yeahhhh :-)
Leon used to come to the “art teachers” meetings before school started and pump us up with his jams.
When a black man sings..you must listen to his soul. We are beautiful.
You definately are beautiful.
Yep this man is truly beautiful ❤One of a kind.
Thank you@@eileencastillo6323
Leon Bridges is the real deal.
I miss Obama.
Every news cycle.
Me too
We all do 🙌🏾
Simp!!!
Leon Bridges does not get enough credit as a musical artist. Obama has great taste in music btw.
Who's here in 2019 missing the great days that wonderful artist performed in OUR White House?
Gwen30, yes! I was just thinking, before I saw your comment, there hasn’t been a single arts performance at the White House since the Obama’s left.
2021 baby 🥂
Gwen30 Missing those days even more in 2021. I'm thankful they were recorded to remind us of happier times xx

Now my room has got two windows
But the sunshine never comes through
You know it's always dark and dreary
Since I broke off, baby with you
I live on a lonely avenue
My little girl wouldn't say I do
Well, I feel so sad and blue
And it's all because of you
I could cry, I could cry, I could (cry) oooh
(I could die, I could die, I could die) I need help from somebody
Because I live on a lonely avenue

I'm not used to being alone
I live on a lonely avenue

Well, I feel so sad and blue
And it's all because of you
I could cry, I could cry, I could (cry) oooh
(I could die, I could die, I could die)
'Cause I live on a lonely avenue
Yes, sir (lonely avenue)
Now I've been so sad and lonesome
Since you've left this town
You know if I could beg or borrow the money
Child, I would be a highway bound
I live on a lonely avenue
My little girl wouldn't say I do
Well, I feel so sad and blue
You know it's all because of you
I could cry, I could cry, I could (cry) oooh
(I could die, I could die, I could die) yeah
I live on a lonely avenue
(Lonely avenue)
this guy is in the wrong era, he old skool smooth
Leon is amazing.. anyone know who the dude on sax is?
