I'm so glad to finally be able to show you what I've been up to. Let me know what you think using #WakeUp on any/all platforms! Stream Wake Up: lnk.to/JamesMarriott
because ive seen a lot of people who didnt like the really enthusiastic singing into the microphone, i wanted to share why i like it bc i feel like people are sleeping on it. its clear throughout the music video that james is continuously repeating these actions (like looking in the mirror, standing in the doorway, waking up and trying to sleep, etc.) and throughout the video he seems to get progressively more stressed to the point where he feels the need to smash the clock, and "unchain" himself, the change in lighting and frame during the line "i keep having dreams where i hurt them" shows the deeper more difficult side of this loop, and the cut off of the line "maybe ill find it in your" shows the build of his struggle throughout the song and music video, so with that considered, the way he sings into the microphone makes sense for the mood of the video (in my opinion at least) because you can tell hes getting closer to his breaking point (and was already on the brink when the song started), and afterwards when he finally completes the line "maybe ill find it in your hand" its almost a sense of closure because he's destroyed the clock, and "unchained" himself. hope that makes sense! (again, just my interpretation :)
@@matthewandrew8423 yh because when a musician releases music, all that should matter is the common societal definition of what looks good and what doesnt
Katie Wright bruh I didn’t even say he needed to lose weight to look “attractive” looking healthy isn’t a bad thing at all. He looks overweight and Chubby which ruins the music video
@@matthewandrew8423 Why do you think you have a right to say what people do with their bodies? His focus would and should have been on the music and shots,not on his body.
@@matthewandrew8423 and what of it? You shouldn’t care how he looks. It’s important that he’s having fun and creating something he’s proud of. And maybe he couldn’t lose weight because of medical problems. The only thing gross here is your comment.
Staar He doesn’t have a medical problem lmao and if he couldn’t lose weight in the time then delay the music video. The video would have been better if James was skinnier and not as puffy
@@matthewandrew8423 1)how do you know he doesn’t have one? You have insight into his personal life? 2) if you think the video would’ve been better if he lost weight then close your eyes, the song is a banger and it deserves views.
I think my fav part that's totes underappreciated is the soft "I'll reach for your hand" 2:38 and the one directly after it with the instruments kicking ass in the back. it's so satisfying and I love it so much, even if it's a small part of the song lol
there’s NO way this is the same guy who made slow down ITS SO GOOD??? like his improvement is mf wild man, like generally how did he do it so fast??? edit: the way he aggressively moves the mic stand is amazing
ive been watching James's for ages, but only found his music recently(other than slow down). i can honestly say im hooked and im excited for whats to come
@6The Reaper Not everyone enjoys those kinds of videos, and that's okay! ☺️ The point of the eboys channel was that it wasn't going to be the same content they post on their own channels 😄 Not sad, just have a different taste in content! 🥰
What I love about this video is that in the audio, you're just singing, whereas in the video, you're screaming the lyrics which shows just how meaningful those words are for you.
I genuinely love this song. This is my first time hearing your music and I really enjoy it, which isn’t an every day occurrence. Usually I have to listen to a song several times over before really sticking with it. Well done, mate. Saving this one for my playlists. :)
It was so perfectly simple in a way that highlighted how intense it is, but he managed to do it all without forcing any of it or stepping outside of the meta edgy. *_Thanks again James for being willing to put yourself out there and share your work with us. Your talent and your dedication are very much appreciated, and you are very very loved._* 💕💕💕💕💕
YOUR EXPRESSIONS IN THIS ARE SO GOOD. Being able to watch you grow and develop as an artist is super cool and I feel lucky that I get to experience it.
I know there is this whole joke about James going bald but I've just noticed how much better his hair looks now than it did when ''Wake Up!'' was released. I know you're probably not going to see this James but you're doing great king
james this really is an amazing song, you’ve improved so much!! the video is so great as well. truly a banger. cant wait to listen to this on REPEAT, ITS ALREADY STUCK IN MY BRAIN YAYYY
So good man the end part makes the build up so worth it. Love the layering of the musical instruments e.g. bringing in the guitar and bass later on. It added lots of depth to the piece. Overall a very solid performance from main man Jimbo Mazzer!
Hello James. Given that I am somewhat early I just wanted to thank you for everything you've done- I've not been feeling the best lately but your videos really put a smile on my face. Keep doing what you're doing, you're awesome man! :)
Already saw 2 lyrics videos made just an hour after this video dropped, it's so awesome that to see that people already wanna know the whole song (which is an absolute banger by the way!!!) Each song you've put out keeps getting better and better can't wait for another EP!!
Louisa Glen lmao we’ll see. There is 0 way anyone is coming back to listen to this song after a week at most. It’s no catchy. Doesn’t have a good chorus. His voice doesn’t match the instrumental
@@matthewandrew8423 hate to break it to you but music taste is subjective, I actually really enjoyed the song and think it's awesome. You're allowed to not like the song but come on why try and drag down those who do
Louisa Glen because you’re lying. I don’t believe you like the song but you like James hence you’re listening to the song. If this song was released by a random dude, you would say it was trash but because it’s James you’re acting like it’s a good song. Just be honest. You shouldn’t blindly support ppl you like
My thoughts throughout the song Opening- oooo clock 1 verse- nice guitar Chorus- **head boping** 2 verse- **vibing** chorus- **still vibing** Bridge- ooooo cool drums Chorus- waiting for the drop **drop hits** Ending- cool fade and clock is back Repeats song
I love the energy James is giving! I would really enjoy listening to James singing something low maybe in a bridge or something as a contrast, I believe it could suit him. His voice definitely has potential.

it's perfect
ikr! this song BANGS.
Wait he isn't just a floating torso????
This was late news you can see him standing with his legs shown in him
fun fact: james is beating up the homeless in this thumbnail, which is a hint to his past when his beardless doppelganger did the same thing
MATE😭
Yes,just yes.
His famous villain arc😈
No you got it all wrong it's clearly beardless James Marriott that has stolen trilingual James Marriott's face smh 😑
fuckin tory
this is premiering at 6am for me, so putting on notifications so he can actually wake me up
POV: You live in Asia
it'll be available on spotify at midnight for your timezone (:
Same! I'm Australian
Midnight for me, not gonna sleep tonight apparently:(
7pm for me 🥴

James is so tall that the mic stand struggles to get to his height
he’s six foot something I think- I think it’s the sweed in his. Utter giant
@@milimustdie he's 6'3/6'4 so yeah, mahussive man mountain of comedy and talent
@@_onlyrackz_ yeah he’s pretty tall lol
Wrong mic stand then. Most mic stands easily reach 8 feet. Otherwise 6'5" me would have trouble performing life.
He doesn't look tall o.O maybe because he is a little chubby
The dramatic singing reminds me of how I lip sync in my bedroom pretending to be a world famous pop star. Love this song too absolute banger.
crazy how james marriott created the music industry
Remember when he invented singing??
And the entertainment industry too
he wishes he did his music is shite
@@finley6241 yet you are here anyway...

the way he aggressively moves the mic stand is amazing

@@zanannax fr i loved slow down 😭😭
@@zanannax i think they were just trying to say that he’s improved his music since slow down, not that it was necessarily a bad song

Such an underrated james marriott song honestly
that 'ive been feeling lost since last week' progression feels so smooth i fucking love it james
I've never seen him standing up before. It's weird. Nice song too
OMG SO THATS WHY I FELT WEIRD LOOKING AT THIS LOL

He's gonna kill us with that bat isn't he
Yep, If you're homeless or child.
And I’ll allow him
I had forgotten how incredible James' music is. I love this song too much.
What I love about this video is that in the audio, you're just singing, whereas in the video, you're screaming the lyrics which shows just how meaningful those words are for you.
The fact you didn't release this on the first of the month makes me not want to wake up
They just get better each time EVERY SONG OML this world ain’t ready for James I swear-
can't wait for this year's Spotify replay, just wake up and him on repeat
I've been addicted to this song since last week

I don't why I'm surprised that a song that is written by James Marriott and sung by James Marriott sounds like James Marriott
Just want to say, it hasn’t dropped yet but I KNOW it will be a banger
you were so right!!
his back must hurt from carrying the whole entire music industry
for real (also nice pfp lol)
I love your profile picture
**cutely presses remind**
**aggressively presses like**
People who don’t think this is a banger need to “Wake up!”
James, fuck what everyone else says. We need you on fucking tour.
No joke. I’ll impulsively pay for it whether I like it or not.
12am for me but worth it! 💕💕

My favourite James Marriott song, keep it up king 👑⏰💜
This is not my type of music personally but I can appreciate it’s a banger
Why is the exagerrated singing and facial expressions so accurate tho

oohhh bro this song is so good. Thank you, Marriott
So far this is my favourite song of his
so glad this priemeres at 6 pm my time, it'll be a great way to finish off the day
i loved this, i stayed up on a school night just to watch the premier, james' is fawking amazinggggg and i love this song
bae you still have school?
I love the guitar tone in James’ songs
this song is an ageless banger, might even be my favorite next to romanticize this. keep it up king!
🤩🤩🤩🤩Wow now I love James even more)))
Great video loved the bit where the bat happened
I’m so proud of James and his music. You’re doing so well besty
Never knew there was a music vid
Nice surprise ig then
Dude, amazing job. I love this song!
song is good but the way he’s screaming in the video but his voice is so calm kinda cracks me up
In the video he’s screaming to a sold out concert hall but musically he’s singing a lullaby to a kitten
So good man the end part makes the build up so worth it. Love the layering of the musical instruments e.g. bringing in the guitar and bass later on. It added lots of depth to the piece. Overall a very solid performance from main man Jimbo Mazzer!

This is my favourite music video ever, idk why its just so good even if its old
i don't understand how you keep outdoing yourself. i love this !!
This style reminds me of the 2000's and its so nostalgic and legendary!!!!

omg yes, Calling is such a bop!!!
Him and calling are mine, i cant pick

one of the verses near the ending in new face is really good

My thoughts throughout the song
Opening- oooo clock
1 verse- nice guitar
Chorus- **head boping**
2 verse- **vibing**
chorus- **still vibing**
Bridge- ooooo cool drums
Chorus- waiting for the drop **drop hits**
Ending- cool fade and clock is back
Repeats song
I love the energy James is giving! I would really enjoy listening to James singing something low maybe in a bridge or something as a contrast, I believe it could suit him. His voice definitely has potential.
Been listening on repeat since it came out and i don't think I've woken up from this dream yet. Love you jimbo
These vocals are so amazing! And the music video in top of that. Great work!
This song is amazing. So glad I came across it
I can't wait until James Marriott reviews this and breaks down the lyrics on his channel... 😉
This song made me feel actually emotion which is something I don't really feel about songs. Great job James
