This dude is insane. he sings a few different versions of the same songs, and each one is totally amazing. often better than the original artist's version.
Shontelle's version was extremely successful long before James covered it. Don't get me wrong i love James Arthur, but he by no eans made it famous he simply sued the song to propel his career post x-factor
***** gay propaganda? what the fuck is that? he says stupid shit which will cost record labels money. ya know, the opposite of what a label wants to do. if he self published there would be no problems if he said anything.
Agra All y'all wrong they won't sign him because his voice took they main chick, and they side chick, and they option C. Now they fuckin with Palmela Handerson and her less talented twin sister Bertha.
So funny, how so many people think James is ugly. If only more people could open their eyes to real beauty. This guy has a characteristic face which you don't forget after two seconds, like all those mainstream guys from America with more make up on, than me as a woman. He's really special + that incredible voice of his which gives me goosebumps over and over again...there's no reason why a normal thinking woman shouldn't fall in love with this guy instantly. Thumbs up for James
Haha ya totally. I could spend so much time just hearing/watching him sing. And yes...the tattoos are just incredible. Just bought his cd and I can't stop listening to it. Stuck on replay
well said .... he is a very good looking lad with amazing talent never get fed up of listerning to his music ... loved him on the x factor mainly for his voice but the beauty he has is he is amazing at portraying a song with great emotion which a lot of singers cant do and he is a normal person not your typical popstar ....... gotta love james arthur :) so people should embrace his music and stop going on about his look
I love James Arthur!!! His voice is beautiful and I love his interpretation of the songs he chooses to sing!!! Amazing and he is a very handsome guy!!!
I'd say the beginning was more James in his perfectly peaceful yet intense singing state...later his voice muscles weakened a bit for various reasons (the song's slower than usual, can't be belting it throughout even though on X Factor he was singing on a high range for longer periods; other reasons may be some inner energy misalignment, distracting thoughts, causing prior strain on the voice......if this makes sense). Still, this guy can't fault my perception - absolutely stunning, an inspiration beyond his musical expression - he comes across as a deep spiritually maturing consciousness, I can see it through being not as musically talented, but spiritually aware.
Gosh how time flies, whoever commented about he didn’t get as much as attention he deserves. Dont worry, he’s all fine now🥺❤️. International fan right here !
Voll mit gefühl ♥ Ich koennte seine Lieder Tag und Nacht hören, ohne das mir die kotze hoch kommt ! Wie ich schon immer sagte, die ganze Welt sollte ihn respektieren !
on a hilarious note. His keyboardist looks like an ex bf of mine LOL. You can tell he just wants to throw down some beats on that bad boy but isnt allowed HAHAHAHA
it must be really hard for the pianist and guitarist to play along as he makes sudden variations to the melody, I can hear how they are trying to adjust at moments
+Juhana Kaarlehto they should have played along.. at least hold up the melody.. since when the band is changing melody when singer starts to alternate his voice??
I think they're mainly adjusting to rhythm; James changes the melody within key, in harmony with the instruments playing as is....he's an improvisation artist - a master like I've never seen, natural, sings deep from his soul, yet he must've had countless hours of focus, dedication, practice......I'm not fooled, this didn't come just like this; quite likely a lot of pain was transmuted to reach this level (you could say James on some egoic level wanted to express himself so outwardly emotionally, to connect with his emotion during performances; who knows, maybe throughout life too; we can only scratch what we're perceiving with words ; anyway, this play of consciousness, this character being played out, this expression served many, it inspired - but deep down we're deeper than that, and all of us are that same one 'thing' - the only that exists - everything - all that is). It's all God's work. Ego likes repetition, for fear any variation will be disliked. If you're free, you do whatever inspires you in the moment and it flows beautifully like that. With James, I feel he's totally in the now, mixing everything effortlessly, trusting his voice, his expression, trusting nature.... It feels he's letting it come out just by itself. That sort of state of Being is enlightenment.
Literally who cares what he looks like with a voice like that. If you're not pleased enough with his looks just close your eyes because his voice is fucking magical.
What a development from the final version at Xfactor to this wonderful, really thrilling mesmerizing version - a bit slower, a lower key, more room for phrasing and James Arthurs kaleidoscope of emotions. His performances touch me deep inside - everytime. Thanks a lot !!!!!
What I love about James Arthur is that he puts everything on the table when he's singing... I know that he probably sang this song many times already but he still gave his best and even made it better.
I can't go one time without crying and watching this. This hits home for me. If my last relationship could be summed up into a song this would be it. Thank you James Arthur for such an amazing voice to make a great cover. God bless you.
I loved this song the first time round when Shontelle did it, but when he did it on xfactor I literally burst into tears. It was like everything I'd been feeling the past 4 years I've had depression just came out :/
he is a very good looking lad with amazing talent never get fed up of listerning to his music ... loved him on the x factor mainly for his voice but the beauty he has is he is amazing at portraying a song with great emotion which a lot of singers cant do and he is a normal person not your typical popstar ....... gotta love james arthur :) so people should embrace his music and stop going on about his looks
This version that he sang compared to when he sang it on the X factor is completely different!!! In this version it sounds like his soul is singing it... I don't if it will make any sense to you guys but it felt like to me not his voice but his soul was singing it... FANTASTIC!!!
I feel like I owe this guy money i've listened to all of his songs on youtube from X-Factor to Now. James keeps reaching new levels as an artist, and I'm glad everyone is enjoying his music because it's just so damn good compared to anything out there.
Amazing, even better live! He was my favourite on x factor and still now! I noticed how he was singing quite slow, and that's because he's able to hear himself too loudly through his headphones. Yet he carries on, pulls it off and nails it. Someone with no talent would cry about it.
***** Can you please read TWICE before you're trying 'act mature' , Ty. I said 'Ppl heard about Justin Bieber but not about this guy' , that's not trashing somebody nor making someone look 'bad' . If you can't live with it , that's your problem , but at least don't 'talk about something' , I've never said , Ty .
Impossible James Arthur Hmm I remember years ago Someone told me I should take Caution when it comes to love, I did And you were strong and I was not My illusion, my mistake I was careless, I forgot, I did And now When all is done, there is nothing to say You have gone and so effortlessly You have won, you can go ahead tell them Tell them all I know now Shout it from the roof tops Write it on the sky line All we had is gone now Tell them I was happy And my heart is broken All my scars are open Tell them what I hoped would be impossible, Impossible Impossible Impossible Falling out of love is hard Falling for betrayal is worse Broken trust and broken hearts I know, I know And thinking all you need is there Building faith on love and words Empty promises will wear I know I know and now When all is done, there is nothing to say And if you're done with embarrassing me On your own you can go ahead tell them Tell them all I know now Shout it from the roof tops Write it on the sky line All we had is gone now Tell them I was happy And my heart is broken All my scars are open Tell them what I hoped would be impossible, Impossible Impossible Impossible I remember years ago Someone told me I should take Caution when it comes to love I did Tell them all I know now Shout it from the roof tops Write it on the sky line All we had is gone now Tell them I was happy And my heart is broken Oh what I hoped would be impossible, Impossible (impossible) Impossible (impossible) (Impossible) impossible (Impossible) impossible (Impossible) Impossible
Ya know, when ya young music often touches you. It grabs you and sweeps you along on an emotional journey to such an extent that you catch yourself with a face contorted with empathy. Get past ya 20's, and that rarely happens. I'm past my 20's, and it just did. I can't remember the last time a vocal did that. It's an incredible, emotionally charged voice, which leaves a sense of stillness when it finishes. Truly stunning.
