dhenry2010 ik

Him and Cudi

Lullaby for my insomniac

Most of the song IS humming.

lol

+Melanie V As soon as I read that I scrolled up and they were doing that lol

that's exactly what happened. lmao

+Melanie V Might have also been because the loop wasn't perfect, and you hear it skip for a second when it comes back around

I love your comment. Perfect description :))

Yup! I think he just did!

That's just how awesome he is

Kimbra also do that on live :)

Tune-yards did that too. Her performance on KEXP was magical!

dhenry2010 Radiohead have been doing that for 17 years with Kid A.

Anyways it's better like this. More human :)

+Naj Presto i love your description. you have a beautiful mind.

thank you

Naj Presto jeez. . .

I dunno but I think you need to eat something.

Naj Presto what a description

look up James Arthur

Don't ^^

Explicitly Me he’s trash

the voice is a wind instrument haha....your welcome :)

First time I heard his voice I was immediately reminded of the reed instrument called the Duduk. It is purportedly the instrument closest to the human voice. It's intimate verisimilitude has been attributed to Minor vocalisation simultaneously produced while resonating the reed. Either way, the formants of the Duduk are exceptionally unique in a paradoxical texture melange. Comprised of: 'neon level vibrancy' pure tones refracting radiant clear octave/fifth overtones, and abstracted by the equally defining traits of splintered formants akin to 'sand vibrating on metal sheets'. The 'lung crushing reed launched protuberance' floats tubular as a smooth velvet liquid, tho free of gravity's guide, it carves itself into abstractly razor sharp containment. I've shared this exact video with so many friends comparing it to my Favorite Duduk song: voices so deliciously similar: · Michael Brook & Djivan Gasparyan - Take My Heart - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZSZkpwzwQiI.html

Malaika Millions amazing .... I’m haunted by the sonority of the Armenian duduk. I tried evoking it through my soprano saxophone and, while still a work in progress. I’d appreciate your feedback if you’d like: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1WvIfuzwYq0.html

Malaika Millions that’s exactly how I felt too! Btw, I’ve seen Brooke and Gasparian live (last concert) at Royce Hall in Los Angeles. What a beautiful evening that was....

Exactly! It has become my song of inspiration!

Come back to it

💯

Thank you my dude I appreciate that

Exactly I be like screaming/singing/crying “so show me why you’re strong” to myself

big time.

Александр Александров I cried at that part because of tales of the borderlands loader bot and I zombie Payton

Bongocat Studios same

Thinking that way makes you beautiful

And James Blake is good but you have to get use to his music. (Wilhem Scream is a good beginning).

+Jack Knife0194 that's the same with panic at the disco and sometimes the neighborhood and more. It's just when you're used to it it's amazing and you'll learn to appreciate music more😅😁😁🙊😍🙌🏼

same

GoldenRicochet same,Man

Orgasmically beautiful

That escalated quickly....

Snap

that ezio guy is my friend so yea.....that's why he said thay

+Hafeezur Rahman i dont remember having any gay friends except for anik

fusianducks still good 🤘🏻

fusianducks check out Sohn. Fucking amazing! Listen to tempest.

i heard a guy called douglas dare recently. he has sinilar vocal patterns, without just sounding like a poor imitation. check out Swim - Douglas Dare

+Mello Mike interesting artist, but i cant seem to find that song anywhere

Du bist alleine, in einer Welt, die du geworden bist Einige Jahre zu gehen, Lassen Sie sich nicht die Hürde fallen So ist das Mädchen, den, das du liebst, Das Mädchen sein, den, das du liebst Ich werde warten, also zeigen Sie mir, warum du so stark bist Ignorieren Sie alle anderen, Jetzt sind wir allein Ich werde warten, also zeigen Sie mir, warum du so stark bist Ignorieren Sie alle anderen, Jetzt sind wir allein Plötzlich bin ich hip Ist diese Dunkelheit des morgens Und deine Freunde sind weg Wenn Sie Freunde kommen, werden nicht Also zeig mir, wo Sie passen Also zeig mir, wo Sie passen Ich werde warten

James is a person with a soul, unlike you, insulting his music, while you could be doing something else with your life.

+Adrianna townsend Alright luv! Perhaps if you took a little time to ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND my comment, you'd CLEARLY FIND that my thoughts are meant to be positive, as in a get GOOD chills at how disgustingly clean his tone is... D'u get it now luv.... Eh?

true baritone singing soulfully

Peter Collins. But James is a freaking beast as well!

starkness of the dawn * :)

He'll wait for her.

Darkness of the dawn * it’s an old turn of phrase.

The lyrics are intense as well as the tone 🎵

Impeccable

lol they're laughing because james buggered up the loop. I love this song though, he has one of the most amazing voices I've heard and remains, in my opinion, one of the greatest musicians/producers around.

I thought they were tripping cos it went outa time quite considerably

+Hakon Harstrup But they handled it like professionals.

yea

its like an instrument

Oh fuck. That sounds like straight dookie

Agreed!

I thought about that too .

YASSS GOD YAS

So True !! 😍💋

+Jasper Allen You mean they were inspired by him.

ik at first i thought it was sam smith

Word

Both borrow an R&B sound. James Blake has a little more blend of electronic and Sam Smith does more "traditional" R&B. Although they sound alike they do have their differences. I like both of them though.

never knew ppl compared them thats crazy, jbs on a whole nother level

well said my friend

Sam Smith is annoying as shit as well.

Me to

OMGGGGG....DEFINITELY FEELIN THIS SONG!!

Same here

The Leftovers!!! So good. Sing is used in the premiere as well

Me four

Izombie bought me here x

He made the same mistake twice and messed up the whole rhythm, but still great.

Inaciane Monteiro The messed up thing about it was that it was on a loop so it was basically playing throughout the whole song. 😂😂 It was after every what, 4 bars? He messed up at very end of the loop when he was recording it. Lol.

Sø Tose he was building the backing track.

I think because he loops the "hummmms" haha still good tho yes

Helena Koursou from 1.12 I love his musicians reactions

Truly complex lol

Playing a lot of notes in time is easier than playing one note perfectly in time every measure. You've gotta be deep in that groove

@@archologyzero I'm a drummer this is legit. I'd rather three minutes of fills than three minutes of hitting a snare exactly in time

lol it really is because james didn't clip the loop right

@@Bradrsnk6vca7nj actually I think he wasn't happy with his first attempt. It was... A little sub par for his skill

Lincoln Jude im three years late but. This is the best "bla bla brought me here" answer ever.

Same here.

I can see the show being a hit if they do it sort of the way Game of Thrones is now... Paying homage to the book while doing their own thing as well.

Man yo... This song is SICK! first time i heard it, it grabbed me. LOL. after that every time the trailer came on I was scrabbling for my phone to Shazam this joint.

Yes and now I am a fan of his music

Here here bro bro ...but it was on a different show I heard befor the one on hbo

:'(

he's alive

+Brandon Dickey nooooooooo??? -_-

I will name my first born... Loader bot. We'll probably not.

i cried

Same

Ikno I was like this is deep

concordo

his noble sacrifice

Erik Nielsen and noble disguise

Baratinha Show IM CRYING

Baratinha Show Noooooooo

Baratinha Show ikr

An Angelic fucking beast

That is hilarious and clever :)
