Emily West sings Kanye West - need I say more? Many of you already discovered Emily West's phenomenal voice during the last season of "America's Got Talent," She's currently working on a full-length album, and we were both in NYC at the same time, so we took some time to record this Roy Orbison-esque version of Kanye West & Paul McCartney's "Only One." I realize I'm not in the shot again, but I swear I'm there on the piano...

As an already big fan of the Kanye/Paul McCartney version, I have to say that this was pretty damn terrific. The strings were so brilliant. Emily West's vocals were stunning.
+PogieJoe Both versions are so unique and we're happy we could play with our own!
MORE COVERS WITH HER she's so perfect
+priscilla darling i would totally agree, but the other singers of pmj are just brilliant as well^^
+priscilla darling you god damn right

PMJ has the amazing power of making me understand and appreciate songs that I normally don't. They make everything better.
Emily here makes everything better, too.
Putting the two together is pure magic.
This is insane, I'd never listen to most of these songs in their original form but this whole playlist is pure gold.
Agreed 👍
This song pulled something right out of my heart
The drummer is BLOWN away! Love his reaction.
I’m still awestruck by the propulsion power of Emily’s voice and the arrangement of this song. Scott is always making musical magic!
Love her voice so much, now and then I just come back here and listen to it another 500 hundred times and every time feels like the first. Goosebumps!!!
I had not heard of her until seeing her on this cover and then seeing her other videos. In my opinion, she is one of the best voices I've heard! There is such a strong, soulful, classical flavor to her voice that would appear to lend itself to any genre. It is absolutely beautiful to listen to! I have purchased this song because of it!!!
Still one of my favorites
This cover has proven to me one thing: that there is some beauty in Kanye West's mind. Unfortunately, I didn't see it in his version. Thank goodness you made this.
Ghostwritter
+OG Sputnik Spyglass 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
+OG Sputnik Spyglass the *co-writers name is Paul McCartney
+ProtozTer called Paul McCartney
+ProtozTer actually Kanye writes his songs. He's a very talented artist, it's just hidden behind his huge ego.
Can´t stop watching this video...Emily West is fantastic !!!
Her version of this song brought me to tears. We're talking huge, ugly fat tears streaming down my cheeks while wishing that my late husband was still here. So, so beautiful.
Still get goosebumps every time I listen to this.
The string section is a wonderful touch.
+Ari zona The band did an amazing job!
Cant remember hearing a vocalist throw themselves into a song as Emily West does this this. Gives me goosebumps
the world should listen to this song to recognize the genius of mr.west.
Love Ms. West's ability to communicate affection with her sweet, strong voice. Very different experience from Roy Orbison, and very good - several replays here!
I just fuckin love her voice, soul, country, melancholic
+Salvador Alejandro Emily has such a talent for making you really feel the lyrics!
me too. I can feel the emotion and feelings when I listen to her voice :)
PostmodernJukebox Get her back and do another one just like this... Holy smokes.
Bring Emily back for more!!
Burns my lips and makes my eyes water. I believe every word. There is love in this world. Reach out and take it.
One of my favorites from PMJ!
+Farah Paraiso Awesome! You can feel free to download the song on iTunes! itunes.apple.com/il/album/emoji-antique/id988683278?app=itunes&ign-mpt=uo%3D4
My father left me at an early age and left my mom to raise me alone. He died when I was about 12. My dad tried to find us during his last days trying to apologize but my mom was too adamant about not letting me see him. And while listening to this song I couldn't help but break down in tears at 2:12.. I just hoped that maybe, just maybe this was what he wanted to tell me when he first held me in his hands..
Billy Yu that was deep
Emotional, i cried a bit.
this left me shocked...i hope you doing good
Fabulous! Love her style, her humor and humility, but that VOICE!!! Truly awe-inspiring
+DF Zee This girl really knows how to use her talent!
Emily West has such a soulful and haunting voice--she conveys pain so beautifully.
I love this song! I probably would of never heard it if you hadn't covered it. Keep up the great work!
+darkrin11 We are so happy we could introduce you to this beautiful song!
'As I lay me down to sleep
I hear her speak to me
Hello 'Mari, how ya doin'?
I think the storm ran out of rain, the clouds are movin'
I know you're happy, 'cause I can see it
So tell the voice inside ya head to believe it
I talked to God about you, he said he sent you an angel
And look at all that he gave you
You asked for one and you got two
You know I never left you
'Cause every road that leads to heaven's right inside you
So I can say
Hello my only one, just like the mornin' sun
You'll keep on risin' 'til the sky knows your name
Hello my only one, remember who you are
No you're not perfect but you're not your mistakes
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh the good outweighs the bad even on your worst day
Remember how I'd say
Hey hey one day you'll be the man you always knew you could be
And if you knew how proud I was
You'd never shed a tear, have a fear, no you wouldn't do that
And though I didn't pick the day to turn the page
I know it's not the end every time I see her face, and I hear you say
Hello my only one, remember who you are
You got the world 'cause you got love in your hands
And you're still my chosen one
So can you understand? One day you'll understand
So hear me out, hear me out
I won't go, I won't go
No goodbyes, no goodbyes
Just hello, just hello
And when you cry, I will cry
And when you smile, I will smile
And next time when I look in your eyes
We'll have wings and we'll fly
Hello my only one, just like the mornin' sun
You'll keep on risin' 'til the sky knows your name
And you're still my chosen one, remember who you are
No you're not perfect but you're not your mistakes
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Tell Nori about me, tell Nori ab-
I just want you to do me a favor
Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me
Roy Orbison would be Proud ! Beautiful Singing by a Beautiful Lady . ❤❤❤❤❤
Her voice is everything!
+Bella Blair Emily has a crazy talent!
In the couple years since I first heard this it has become my absolute favorite song. I’m not much of a Kanye west fan & I don’t really enjoy his version but hearing this always makes me tear up. It just so heart felt & beautifully written. This arrangement takes it to another level altogether
I'm probably the only one not fixed on the singer, but THAT CELLO THOUGH! I'm in love with that sound. 😍😍
Please do more cover with Emily west !!
+tanya sanchez We would love to work with Emily again!
I get goosebumps every time i listen to this, buildup could not have been more epic
Loving This!!! Emily West is amazing,
+Chris H She is uber talented!
I have to listen to this amazing rendition at least once a day. And I still feel like it's the first time I've listen to it.
Best PMJ music cover ever!
You gotta do it again with another music.
Gorgeous song beautifully sung, love it
+Kevin Barlow Emily did such a fantastic job!
+Kevin Barlow touching, profound and unique performance!
+Dejan Petković Absolutely Dejan, well said. I don't know about you but I never tire of this performance by Emily!
When you know figure out what its about its a real tear jerker, at least for me.
Killed it. And without autotune.
It is just amazing how your variations keep touching that musical "me".
If I ever had a wish it was that I could learn to play the piano like you Mr. Bradlee. Unfortunately I am born with asperger syndrome and I can not get my fingers to move independantly. But I keep trying being moved every time I hear your music.
+Jesper Pedersen We are so happy that this music can touch you and inspire you! Thanks for listening!
Wow, this is incredible. I'm speechless but I want to keep praising it! Fantastic work, Emily West is a truly phenomenal singer.
The cover of this song is in my top 10 favorite songs of all time. It truly makes me feel at peace whenever I'm having a bad day.
Is there any way to purchase the sheet music for the piano arrangement? Would LOVE to learn it!
Please bring her back!
My first-ever song I found from browsing pmj into youtube almost 3 years ago... and still as awesome.
I absolutely loved this - great job!
she is such an angel
the arrangement and everything is set up so perfectly I've watched and listened over and over again
there is so much work to be done to satisfy the demand ( mine )
I'd love to see some more of you doing songs with her together again.
One of my very favorite PMJ jams
She's amazing. Just love her voice. And I'm in love with her.
Simply amazing!
Emily West amazing singer ..loved her on AGT....Great work Scott and crew
+BRUCE H Emily was amazing on AGT and is only going up from there! And yes, the band really made her shine!
I'm so happy you included Emily West, loved her on AGT
+Lance Matthew It was a pleasure to work with her!
I REALLY hope you guys do more Roy Orbison-styled covers. So great.
This may be my absolute favorite one of theirs, its SO beautiful!!
Makes me cry every time
Had that been an American Idol performance, it would have been lauded as one of the best in the show's history.
Emily, musicians and the arrangement simply knock it out of ball park!
SO HAPPY TO SEE EMILY!!! She should have won America's Got Talent! We loved her in our house, every one of us. The most beautiful voice of late! So happy to see you having her join you! Thanks for making beautiful music!
+Noreen's Kitchen What a great fans you all are! We are so happy to have worked with Emily!
Oh my!
How on earth do PMJ just keep on finding such glorious voices???
Honestly, I can't think of one single other band that bulges at the seams with talent the way they do.
She is breathtaking!
What a voice! What a singer! Goose bumps pure.
+harry flakers Emily has such a talent for finding the true meaning of songs!
I ❤️❤️❤️ Emily west!!!
0:24 I fucking love the beginning of her singing!!
Tough style choice! Roy had such an unorthodox song writing style not to mention the .... that voice. But you did a great job. Roy would give it his sly chuckle.
what was unorthodox about roy orbinson's song writing style?
awesome! thx for the info. wouldnt have noticed that if i didnt ask. Like his music but just haven't really paid extensive attention.
***** That is because he was working at a different level, one cut above most.
She is simply fab!
Never heard the original, I don't think I want to after this. Sounds amazing!
same!!
The original is pure dog shit, actually. It's all off-key singing that's been auto tuned with no music or anything with it.
This cover is really cool but I prefer the original one. Kanye's feels more sincere.
Tiny Supreme kanyes version is gorgeous. The emotion and sincerity behind it is unmatchable.
Kanye's version has 10X the emotion of this
The way this woman sings this song gives me inner tingles unlike any other singer.
Her look is faaaaaaabulous! The dress is stunning. I wish more women would follow THAT lead today.
I seriously cannot stop listening to this. It's perfection.
I want more Emily!
My favourite by far, and i've been following postmodern jukebox for over a year
+Juliet McAuliffe Wow, that's amazing! Feel free to get the song on iTunes! itunes.apple.com/il/album/only-one-feat.-emily-west/id988683278?i=988683298&app=itunes&ign-mpt=uo%3D4
I will :)
Beautiful voice and truly a "Pretty Woman".
Such a huge fan. She is just MAGNIFICENT!
I love this, my heart strings are well and truely pulled!!!
+shea19811 Then Emily and the band did their jobs!
For anyone son has lost their mother this should be one of their favourite songs.
EMILY WEST!!! YESS!!!
gosh, her voice is amazing!
i think hers and morgan's are so so so so awesome-
+amirisdepaula Emily and Morgan are both such fantastic performers!
Really enjoyed this one : )
I kind of want to listen to the original but I'm worried it won't be as good as this lol
Promise it is. Original is amazing
Of course it isn't. The originals are never as good as the PMJ versions.
Gukkor 👍
Too much auto-tune in the original for me.
I love both versions of this one
CLASS !!
I'm a huge fan or fthe original, yet this ............................................I couldn't keep my eyes off , what a voice!!
2:30 did you notice how happy is the drummer guy?
Why have I not seen or heard this until now? We all need more Emily, thanks, an incredible song.
I think I like this more because I don;t know the original. Amazing song, amazing singer, amazing band!
I just love her. So much soul, so much sass, soooo much talent.
How does this not have more views ?!?
I love 60's music especially Roy Oribson and I love modern music. And to put Emily west in there I love it.
+Angie Ledesma They are just such a perfect combination!
perfect as it can ever be
In my office we had a music and once I heard this masterpiece. I still love this cover version, it remembers me best times with my peers and friends before moving to another city
Wow! A little different from what you usually do. a bit of a rock ballad feel to it. This young lady has the power and passion reminiscent of Ann Wilson.. Very nice. :-)
+saradreaming We love to experiment with different genres! And glad that it was a successful experiment!
Wow! The first edition of PMJ that the singer uses a ton of incredible emotion. I love this. this should be a hit on the radio. I'm about to binge watch anything Emily West!
+billy wilson Emily did such a fantastic job bringing out the lyrics in this number! Maybe it will be on the radio one day!
+PostmodernJukebox a thought!! Hayley and Emily West do a soulful take in an ABBA song?
finally, a brilliant vocalist to match your arrangements
Wow!!! Never before have I used the word "incredible" for a band or singer as I have for PMJ in the 24 hours since finding them on RUclips. And now a massive bonus too in Emily West, my favourite singer from 2014's America's Got Talent. Absolutely stunning.
A perfect cover of a great song......Thanks.
+Auggies1956 So happy you liked it!
I love PMJ and Emily West is the TRUTH!!! AGT best talent ever!
+Christina S Thanks for all the support!
This is a very fine version of a tune I would ordinarily not have paid any attention to. The vocals and arrangement are excellent as is the production. Although I would argue it doesn't sound anything like a Roy Orbison song
Love this and love her voice. I can barley recognize the song it's better than the ridge know love it
+Joseph Wright So glad you enjoy this version! It's available on iTunes as well! itunes.apple.com/il/album/only-one-feat.-emily-west/id988683278?i=988683298&app=itunes&ign-mpt=uo%3D4
thanks I got it
what a voice
+scepticly You can say that again!
I always hear "tell nori about me" with "don't worry about me". brings me to tears.
Never would have thought I'd enjoy a Kanye West tune... Excellent Job PMJ! And Emily West...Excellent Singer!
Almost a decade since I first heard this and it's sure aged damn well. Emily STILL gives me ... CHILLS.
This was so much better than the original. The lyrics are so beautiful but the music and arrangement of the original was so awkward to me. I'm glad you guys saved this lovely song.
no
Daniel x That made me laugh out loud.
I listened to this version then I was like, hmm I wonder what the original sounds like, then I read "Kanye West" and I'm just like No. But I listened to the original and it sounds horrible, I don't get how some people will even say it's good, or even better... Crazies
Typical "white" cover of this song. Thats why you like it, its dry and generic
Spettacolare. ... davvero un'interpretazione meravigliosa. ... brava brava brava !!!!
I have no fuckin clue what the original song is like, but this is pretty cool
Use youtube, just don't watch the vevo version as it's not the full song
I just watched it, and it's really, really bad. Still I don't know what I expected from kanye.
118bone It's pretty much impossible to think this is "pretty cool" but think the original is really, really bad. I think your bias against Kanye West is just speaking here. I get it, it's cool to hate Kanye.
The melody is cool, but the way they made the original is awful, that horrible autotune
The song is actually good but there's too much auto tune.
Instrument combination and singers voice complent so Godly it's like I found the combination that I always wanted to hear but never could unil now!
All of your works are simply amazing! Really wish I could share to as many of my friends in Taiwan as possible! :D
+Haomao Productions Awesome, thanks for sharing our video!
