Yeah, they arrive in a frikin limo with camera crew and set a stage up for him.... great way to say "here is something for tv happening come and flock round". next time dont have a camera crew and have a portable amp that the celebrity carries like a proper busker.
It's because when James was singing you could feel it in your soul. The hairs on your neck stand up you get goose bumps or hot flashes. Only true emotion and beautiful vocal chords can accomplish that.
His voice is so unique he needs a Hollywood disguise and people again may understand. At least the ones that listen to he's music. You are the one James keep going mate !!!
James’ voice and emotion was WAYYY better. Some people just have IT. and when they sing and play it’s miles above imitation. Can’t be replicated. It’s as if their soul is singing, not just their vocal chords. He has it.
@Joe Ellul-Turner - I don't know why YOURS in particular, I mean others here have said pretty much the same.... but your comment totally cracked me up and I can't stop laughing!
sure, but if you see a hobo that sounds like a famous musician you would assume that he just sounds very similar, not that it's really that celebrity in hours worth of makeup playing for a few dollars at a train station
Naomi MUA And it's the same spot each time, people would know that the guy at that spot is going to be the real star in a wig (or the ever returning warm up band that always makes £30.04).
The girl in the black boots tipped people off. She had been behind him when they were watching the first group perform. She totally spelt all the beans
This is so awesome. He's incredible without a studio behind him. Just the fact that he can do out there in the cold without anything other than a guitar and his voice and sound that amazing blows my mind. He's incredible.
Man James has such an amazing voice!!! Hi really has and incredible vocal range!!! It's truly breathtaking... he truly seems to live while singing every word of his songs 😁🎶🎵👌👌👌
This 'Secret Busker' was actually my friend's idea! He applied for an internship with Radio 1, and in the application he had to give ideas of what he thought would make good viral videos (or something similiar, cant remember the exact question) and he put down this exact idea! About a month later Radio 1 made their first secret busker video! Bit too much of a coinincidence for my liking. Please credit him Radio 1 if you did use his idea!
Lesson no. 1 in life, if you have a good idea, don't give it away for free. I feel for your buddy there, but there is no patent on "his" idea and unfortunately you can't prove they "stole" his idea either. Such is the real world.
Random Ramblings i know 🙁. would have been nice/ethical for them to mention his name or something (if they did use his idea and it wasn't just coincidence) , but i agree with you
James Arthur's voice cannot be disguised since it is unique from anything I have heard (and maybe the whole world). Great video for it cheered me up a lot
