We have 3 versions of Stay and I still can't decide the one that I like most. Just that this song really hits me everytime I listen to it. This lyrics relate to me in such a high level...
I love how she performs this. At the start she's almost subdued, like she's not really feeling it. From the middle to the end she goes full on, giving it her all. At the finish she timidly lifts her hands from the keys, almost like she's not sure if she's done, followed by that beautiful slight smile. She's done.
Life is like a circus wheel And I never know how to feel You're still livin in the way back then But I never meant to hurt you or to lose a friend The times gone by on a runaway train And there's nothing we can do to bring it back again But you, you're looking at me Just say what you want, Just say what you need Cause I, I need to be free To come as I go and go as I please Did you think I'd stay? Well you should turn the other way Cause we're never going back again All you did was stay Holding on to yesterday Well it's never coming back again Life, a couple hundred miles away And I remember you like it was yesterday Why, why you looking at me? I'm not what you want It's not what you need Cause I, I need to be free To come as I go and go as I please Did you think I'd stay? Well you should turn the other way Cause we're never going back again All you did was stay Holding on to yesterday Well it's never coming back again You can stay in the past You can live a lie Say I've changed Call me cold Call me what you like And never know what it's like on the other side [x2] Did you think I'd stay? Well you should turn the other way Cause we're never going back again All you did was stay Holding on to yesterday Well it's never coming back again You can stay in the past You can live a lie Say I've changed Call me cold Call me what you like And never know what it's like on the other side You can stay in the past You can live a lie Say I've changed Call me cold Call me what you like And never know what it's like on the other side
Honestly almost all of your music is the definition of awesometacular, and your piano versions are somehow even more awesome. Cannot wait to see you in concert when you come to America
This is the song that was stuck in my head while driving home from her concert, and also for the next three days. Impactful song, definitely leaves an impression. Amazing to hear live :)

Damn, she is simply sensational. Her voice is very beautiful, but also special and it really moves me when she sings. Every note is pure magic and she give me chills anytime. Her piano versions are outstanding.
Thanks, lady. Times are rough -- you're bringing some light to this dark age. It's no small feat. Don't ever doubt how much good you can do and what power you've got to make a difference in the world.
Breathtaken,i'm,I just dont know what to say. Every time I think she can't surprise with anything else,just lovely music,she does this,just I dont know the word in english "i'm patidifusa,estupefacta,los pelos como escarpias,la piel de gallina" Just wow,thanks, hope to hear more of this lovely music soon
WOW.. Absolutely stunning!! I've actually been in love with this beautiful, humble and ridiculously talented woman since I first saw her singing 'Home' (which she wrote at about 17) and this just made me feel the same way. With copious amounts of mediocre trash that's on RUclips, radio and TV these days, I'm so happy for Gabby's success through hard graft, talent and being her genuine true personality. And not moulded, used to make dolla for record companies and then dumped for the 'NEW big thing'. Love and respect to you Gabbs!
gods sake this almost had me in tears in the middle of the library 😭😭 yet another masterpiece ❤️❤️ your songs are always so powerful by themselves but the piano versions never fail to kill me
Just re-watched your video of “the writer” from 7 years ago. You have come so far! It’s so amazing to see how much your music career has grown and how much you’ve grown as a person. You’re one of those artists that I’ll never get bored of. Still listen to your old songs and love them like the first time I listened to them. ❤️💕
Gabrielle everything you make is amazing! and i feel it's unfair that other s**t songs from other singers get over 50+ M view. but the good thing that people who listen to you are here for you. and not because of the other people listen to it, i have to listen to it (i hope you get what i mean lol). and i wish to meet you some day. keep doing what you're doing you are an awesome person! and thank you for making great music that let me enjoy my time! Take Care.
the song has not gained as much popularity as i wanted .... rightly to be popular worldwide totally mindblowing...hatsoff to lyrics ,music,and ofc to singer...
The real questions are: a) Will she go back to brunette, b) will she re-dye it blonde, or c) will she go for another colour? Whatever the choice it will look great. :-)
!!Amazing!! Thanks for that Gabrielle it's nice to hear you and see you I've been in a dark place latly your like a light shining in the darkness so yeah thanks again lol
This has to be one of the most beautiful songs on RUclips. I find I have come back to it so many times over the past few months. Thank you so very much for sharing! ❤️🎹
Please release an album containing all the piano versions you've done. Please please!
Maine omg yes yes yes!!!!
Yesss! ❤ 🎹 💫
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
She finally did release official piano versions (though for Dear Happy only).
Thank you, Gabrielle! ❤️ I hope you also release for old songs :(
oh wow yes please! I'd listen to it a thousand times over and not get bored
Still come back time and time again to listen to this version. Beautiful.
We have 3 versions of Stay and I still can't decide the one that I like most.
Just that this song really hits me everytime I listen to it. This lyrics relate to me in such a high level...
Hyunjin the ghost The acoustic versions are better. 💙
Hyunjin the ghost guitar version is my fav
Elspeth Eley she changed the lyrics right?
Hyunjin the ghost I prefer the version with acoustic guitar
I love how she performs this. At the start she's almost subdued, like she's not really feeling it. From the middle to the end she goes full on, giving it her all. At the finish she timidly lifts her hands from the keys, almost like she's not sure if she's done, followed by that beautiful slight smile. She's done.
Life is like a circus wheel
And I never know how to feel
You're still livin in the way back then
But I never meant to hurt you or to lose a friend
The times gone by on a runaway train
And there's nothing we can do to bring it back again
But you, you're looking at me
Just say what you want,
Just say what you need
Cause I, I need to be free
To come as I go and go as I please
Did you think I'd stay?
Well you should turn the other way
Cause we're never going back again
All you did was stay
Holding on to yesterday
Well it's never coming back again
Life, a couple hundred miles away
And I remember you like it was yesterday
Why, why you looking at me?
I'm not what you want
It's not what you need
Cause I, I need to be free
To come as I go and go as I please
Did you think I'd stay?
Well you should turn the other way
Cause we're never going back again
All you did was stay
Holding on to yesterday
Well it's never coming back again
You can stay in the past
You can live a lie
Say I've changed
Call me cold
Call me what you like
And never know what it's like on the other side
[x2]
Did you think I'd stay?

Say I've changed

Call me what you like
And never know what it's like on the other side
alaiablack thanks for the lyrics now I can sing to this and not forget the lyrics
Cs
I have three exams tomorrow - but here I am, crying at this amazing music
She should release a studio album with an acoustic one, every damn time.
this might possibly be the best comment i have read on youtube.
Gabe is like an angel.. soothing our hearts with such wonderful voice.. She was the best thing i’ve discovered in youtube 💛
Absolutely amazing how the three versions of the same song can have completely different meanings! Beautiful!
this is so calming and beautiful ahh x
Yes!!! I prefer her on this kind of genre, sooo relaxing.
Your acoustic versions are out of this world, Gabrielle. This one is sublime. 💙 🎹 🎵
All of Gabrielle's songs are literally the best things I've ever heard, she has the voice of an angel 💕
Wow. The toughest message you'll ever receive in a relationship delivered with style and grace.
gabrielle sounds as beautiful as she looks, this is absolute gold
Honestly almost all of your music is the definition of awesometacular, and your piano versions are somehow even more awesome. Cannot wait to see you in concert when you come to America
ur acoustic version always makes me like the original song even more.!
This is the song that was stuck in my head while driving home from her concert, and also for the next three days. Impactful song, definitely leaves an impression. Amazing to hear live :)

And I never know how to feel
You’re still woven in the way back then
But I never meant to hurt you or to lose a friend
The times gone by on a runaway train
And I don’t know where he’s going or if he’s back again
But you, you’re looking at me
Just say what you want, just say what you need

Did you think I’d stay?
Well you should turn the other way

All you did was stay
Holding on to yesterday
Well it’s never coming back again
Life, a couple hundred miles away
And I remember you like it was yesterday
I didn’t want to leave you on your own in the end
But we’re not supposed to feel this, I can’t pretend
But times gone by on a runaway train
And there’s nothing we can do to bring it back again
So you, why you looking at me?
I’m not what you want
It’s not what you need
Cause I, I need to be free
To come as I go and go as I please
Did you think I’d stay?
Well you should turn the other way
Cause we’re never going back again
All you did was stay
Holding on to yesterday
Well it’s never coming back again
You can stay in the past
You can live a lie
Say I’ve changed
Call me cold
Call me what you like
And never know what it’s like on the other side
Did you think I’d stay?
Well you should turn the other way

Say I’ve changed
Call me cold
Call me what you like
And never know what it’s like on the other side
Thank you Gabby for never failing to pour so much heart out in the songs you play. Love them and love you! 💕
" say ive changed. Call me cold, call me what you like."❤❤

This song gives me chills, it’s one of those songs which I always gravitate back to because it’s so beautiful
Her voice is just so amazing
Is anyone else amazed at how relatable this song is!?
Gabrielle just sums it up perfectly 💛
This should get so many views!
Damn, she is simply sensational. Her voice is very beautiful, but also special and it really moves me when she sings. Every note is pure magic and she give me chills anytime. Her piano versions are outstanding.
So damn Beautiful!!!! Just Love acoustic Gabby so much !
I'm in love again. 💖
Kyla Gail im in love again at 51!!!!

Your piano versions- that's what I like the most!!
Always love how her emotion and energy transcend into her "live piano versions"- feeling so much passion in that soul of hers
Gabrielle Aplin is so soulful i cant describe
I don't have another song that can define what I'm feeling for this past days!! YOU ROCK, come to Brazil!!
gods sake this almost had me in tears in the middle of the library 😭😭 yet another masterpiece ❤️❤️ your songs are always so powerful by themselves but the piano versions never fail to kill me
I TRULLY LOVED HOW SHE IS PERFORMING ON THE PAINO
IT IS SO AMAZING
Thank you for being a light in some of the darkest days of my life x
In my opinion, all of your unproduced versions are so much better 💕💕 Less processed. More organic. 💯💯✨✨
And my anxiety is gone..her voice is just that calming and beautiful xx
I wished for this and here it is, thank you Gabrielle. Now I can cry peacefully.
She is my favorite person ever.

Gabrielle is so talented, her voice is amazing and I always love her live acoustic songs.
I love those certain songs where the artist perfectly articulates how you're feeling..... music, when done right, is a magical thing......
WOW!!!!! That is all... Just wow!
I think this is her most beautiful performance so far; a reflection of the fruit of the bygone years.
Her voice was so soft my hear turned to butter after the song was done, I love it!
just a complete stunning vocal talent - love her
In love with Gaby's voice!!! 💙
the song has not gained as much popularity as i wanted ....

A true artist, this was done beautifully cause she can and she will out due her self in the features many times over again, well that is also my wish.
Her neck scarf is from Lush - it's one of the knot wraps.. if anyone is wondering haha
Hey Gabs youre rocking that hair color
Its really cool how with your voice you can make a lot of us feel so much :3 greetings from Mexico
The real questions are: a) Will she go back to brunette, b) will she re-dye it blonde, or c) will she go for another colour?
Whatever the choice it will look great. :-)
