Lyrics
Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colours on the snowy linen land
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in a violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colours changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night
You took your life, as lovers often do
But I could've told you, Vincent
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn on the bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will
#JamesBlake

A year and a couple of months ago I was working in London (originally from California) for about two months. My girlfriend came out for a week and we were walking through covent garden, about 10 pm on a Tuesday I believe it was. (I should preface this by saying that My best friend who I hadn’t seen in years had just shown me this cover/song about a week or two before I got on the plane). We were both pretty drunk and these two street performers were just wrapping up this song as we were walking by and I recognized it immediately. I was going to ask them to play it over, but I didn’t have ANY cash/coin whatsoever to donate to respectfully ask them to do so. To this very day, my greatest regret is that I didn’t just go up to them and beg them to play their rendition one more time so I could hear it from beginning to end. This is a beautiful song and cover, but I can only imagine how lovely it would have been to hear it live by two wonderfully random performers on a brisk ass autumn night. FUCK

Personally, I have always thought that, in some way, the greatness of a musician is also measured by the quality of the songs he decides to cover. In the case of Blake, the taste is always sublime (B. Whiters, D. McLean, J. Mitchell, Feist, Simon & Garfunkel ...).

Had not 1 evil bone in his body . Vincent he was tormented so bad to have to feel like taking his own life. But I won't claim he took his own life it was a battlefield in his mind . Insanity My heart goes out to any one who gets so low to feel that despair. God please look over all our children . And Family s . Protect us Lord . For these are paralysis times . I've prayed. For God our Father and Jesus King of Kings to go find him please and he will cyou and realize you are real and without a doubt love you like all of us ! Do ! R I P Vincent Texas

Just a couple hours ago I learned that this song was written about Vincent Van Gogh, and I felt compelled to watch the recent movie, “Loving Vincent.” It was beautiful, both visually and emotionally. I thought it was great, one of the best hand-drawn movies I’ve ever seen. Especially when the credits began to roll, and this song began to play. I only wish that they had used this version with James instead of the one they ended up using. Now I’m back and can really appreciate this song for what it means. Vincent was a great man, but extremely misunderstood and looked down upon in his life, and now he’s one of the most famous artists to have ever lived. What a man he was.

Cant believe he covers this song. One of my favorite artist coving one of my favorite songs of all time. Ive been watching James Blake for a very long time from this side of the pond and i didnt see this coming.

This song is a tribute to Vincent Van Gogh by Don McLean. He wrote & composed this sad song, which makes me teary every time I listen to it. James, you performed beautifully singing this song. We all have sensitivity of varying degrees - some of us are less sensitive than others. Me must understand people who are very sensitive, understand & love them. Vincent was very sensitive & had mental illness. Those around him couldn’t understand him. He ended up committing suicide. If those people around him had been more understanding, caring & loving, Vincent might not have committed suicide. We must learn from this song & be understanding, caring & loving for those who are very sensitive.

If the music does not invoke any sort of emotion within you, then you're doing it all wrong... Perfect representation of playing the music with all of you!

I knew Don did this, but coudln't recall where I heard it live as a kid... Garth Brooks. Great song! James as well as Garth have done the song justice.

As a person with psychosis or schizoaffective this song touches me to my core. Absurd delusions and the pain of what some have to go through.

jhumble777 I’m sorry to hear that. Are you treated? I do understand the flatness that you may feel with meds.

Although I didn't have an overwhelmingly happy childhood, I'm grateful that my dad played me quality music like this. And this is such a beautiful rendition to the piece.
