His album and him live sound the exact same, raw talent. His lyrics give me goosebumps, simply beautiful. Sam doesn't need the production, he needs a mic and his performance moves to tears. This is true talent. Way to go Sam!
This is the first time I have ever heard this song. I am compelled to hear the studio version. I'm seriously gonna take your word, because i know it will sound the same because his voice and talent is outerworldly.
YES EVER SINCE HE BROKE OUT INTO POPULARITY I HAVE BEEN DYING TO HEAR THAT BECAUSE SOMEONE ON RU-vid COMMENTED HOW HE HAS A TONE AND VOICE SIMILAR TO ADELE AND I JUST ALWAYS THINK OF HER WHENEVER I HEAR HIM ON THE RADIO.
Adele left because she hated fame.. She stated that she regretted putting out her second album because she hated the attention. As far as I know Sam likes the fame or at least the money
Isn't it sad how majority of us are so surprised when a singer sounds the same live as they do on their recorded track? It's like we all expect singers to use vocal editing and then sound atrocious when singing live...
cecitambu Ikr. It's just crazy, like Ariana Grande on the occasion. Sometimes she doesn't do all the weird stuff, and we know she just has a naturally strong voice that can be really loud. #sam&cat #victorius
Jade K i guess it's because most of them do sound like that. Only because that's what the media expects of them too. So when you get a rarity like Sam Smith and a voice like his they have to find something else of his to talk about. But I understand what you mean...
was listening to this while on another tab then at 1:16 had to stop everything and watch the rest of this amazing performance! straight guys can have man crushes right?!?
certainly straight men can have man crushes as do straight women have girl crushes. There is no shortage of admiration and from everyone for this super singer called Sam Smith
Of course you can. It's just the guys who are uncomfortable with their sexuality, are insecure, have huge egos, won't sleep in the same bed with another guy even if they have to, won't kiss a guy on the other cheek even, etc. who think that having a man crush is "gay". I'm straight, but I know a good looking guy when I see one. Every guy does, but won't admit it.
My Favorite People in the current industry that can sing LIVE: -Adam Lambert -Sam Smith -Ed Sheeran -Adele -John Legend -Bruno Mars (They are goddamn good, their voice kills... Perfection in their voices, no autotune need. They're too good for that anyway!) :D
People that can actually sing: H.E.R. JoJo Sam Smith Adele Amber Riley Bruno Mars Pentatonix/SUPERFRUIT Tori Kelly Sinéad Harnett Jade Novah Todrick Hall Troye Sivan Mellet Tyde Levi Mellet MNEK Keiynan Lonsdale Daniel Caeser Zara Larsson Adam Lambert Ariana Grande Sabrina Claudio Ella Mai Tayá CXLOE Trevor Moran Conor Maynard William Singe *Insert any K-pop group here* (especially NCT) Sam Kim DEAN Zico Crush Hoody Jay Park DPR LIVE Ailee Holland Kehlani TERRELL (Terrell Grice) Kiana Ledé rIVerse Talia Mar SZA Hayley Williams Lia Marie Johnson Brendon Urie Ed Sheeran Calum Scott James Arthur James Bay Miley Cyrus Charice Pempengco Little Mix Beyoncè Jessie J John Legend Alex Aiono Halsey Usher Jennifer Hudson Christina Aguilera Demi Lovato Sia Celine Dion Charlie Puth Wafia Brandy Shawn Mendes Lady Gaga Morisette Amon Michael Pangilinan *Not in any particular order*
Sam Smith's voice is so unique and amazing. I don't think I'll ever get tired of listening to him sing. It's such a beautiful, pure sound. He sounds completely fantastic on his album recordings, as well as live, which is so impressive within the music industry these days. I absolutely adore his sound and the emotion he puts into his performances. You can't help but love Sam Smith once you're heard him- he has the kind of voice that sticks with you once you've heard it - beautiful, impressive, raw talent. I absolutely love him.
FUCK IT UPPPPP HE IS SO DAMN TALENTED ITS INSANE. THIS SOUNDS LIKE ITS STRAIGHT FROM HIS ALBUM. HES ONE OF THE FEW TALENTED PEOPLE RIGHT NOW. IM AMAZED AT HIS TALENT.
Can we take a moment to realize how perfect sam smith is, and how simular he sounds in this to how he sounds on his album? Its so perfect!!!!!! I love him with both of my hearts
He was just with Ellen, Justin, Kim & Kanye. Saw him in Chicago not even 6 days ago, front row. He's currently on the cover of Rolling Stone, 6x Grammy nominee. Legend already.
Steven Middlehurst if you had pay attention to Sia, you'll soon realise how talented she is. Now now, i'm not trying to say sam is shit, i love sam too.
Sam Smith joining forces with Adele would be heaven. It's basically the Same as Demi Lovato joining with Olly Murs to create 'Up'. It was such an angelic sound.
So incredible. I didn't manage to read all the comments but every comment complimented Sam. Having a voice like that is true talent. Not many singers are like him. I actually feel lucky to have heard his music and know about him because his voice is just so easy to fall in love with. Sam is amazing. I adore him
Justin is actually very talented and a great singer if you look up him singing live without auto tune. Wish he would show off his amazing voice more and not use so much auto tune. But I agree that Sam Smith is amazing
+Jimenez Vincent yeah, because he's a pop singer, and not all singer can sing ballad, but that doesnt mean that JB is a shitty singer just because he can't sing ballad, it's like saying that Rodney Mullen is a shitty skater because he can't do Fliptricks with a longboard
Sam Smith just gets me every time. He is just amazing, incredible personality, great skills, unbelievable voice, always so happy and I can't wait until I see him in concert for the 4th time.
i have goosebumps....goosebumps and more goosebumps. His voice is so angelic and amazing, I appreciate artist that have true talent and don't auto tune 90% of their voice.
He's irrelevant to be honest. Sam Smith is what's hot now. That austin guy you talk about is seemingly another JB popstar who gets most of his fame purely out of the fact that he looks like a teenage boy other teenage girls would one day hope to be with. Not trying to be a douche but he's not that good at whatever he does. Also, someone else kind of pointed out how irrelevant your comment was given this was a video that clearly is about Sam Smith NOT austin.
i first heard this song shortly a friend of mine died from suicide...so whenever i hear this song i get very emotional....beautiful song by a beautiful man x
Love him...i mean his voice! His songs just get to me... I dedicated this song to my dad that passed on june 19, 2017 of cancer.......will love and always miss you father!.....
As I saw the blue lights flash in the hallway, nurses and doctors rushed to by aunts aid. As they attempted to revive her, her soul flew off to heaven. I put my iphone on random and this was the first song out off 3,273 songs that I have. I cried a mighty cry leaning in the wall and slowly shifting my body to the ground and trying to catch my heart as it fell. Before it reached the ground, she came to me and helped me up and told me that everything will be okay and that she will eternally love me. My heart grew a steady beat and though hung heads left the room I knew she is feeling absolutely and un-refutable elation. I'll miss you auntie, my auntie, our auntie, and the worlds aunt.
I had too leave a comment Omg I am in love with Sam smile album. One of the best I bought. 😍. His live performance sounds amazing 💓. You can tell he's natural at singing. I just love him no matter if he Gay. It's his talent that counts noting else. 😘
I saw him perform at the Los Angeles concert, it was the best concert I've ever been to. He has the voice of an angel and even better he's so humble. I can't get over how perfect he is.
this reminds me of my mum and how she had died last october of 2014 it doesnt seem almost a year , i may be oyung to be commenting im only 12 but was 11 at the time , like if this reminds you of someone you miss and love a break up, a loss, anything :)
lost my mum in 2012. (I'm a lot older than you!), but I remember, when she was dying, just thinking I just wanted to lay with her so she wasnt alone. I feel your sadness. sorry for your loss. x
to people saying that this music industry is going downhill... well here's some hope. and there are still so many artists out there with the same pattern who really need to receive more recognition for their work. they deserve it.
I'm here because of Emilian Nechifor from X Factor Romania !He had such an emotional performance ... made my cry lot. I'm happy because this song exists :)
EVERYTIME I HEAR HIM SING I JUST CLOSE MY EYES LOOKS....AMAZING! SO EFFORTLESS HIS VOICE...FEELS LIKE I AM FLOATING IN HEAVEN WILL CLEAN UP AT THE GRAMMYS
He's so amazing and actually sounds like his studio recording (if not better) live, and you can tell he pours his heart and soul into the music. Love you Sam!
Okay, I love him and Adele... but when Ellen said that he was nominated for a record 6 Grammy Awards, he wasn't the first one to achieve that - Adele was nominated for 6 Grammys back in 2012 and she won all 6 as well!
What she meant by that comment was that soon after he appeared on her show he got nominated. So kinda of saying that she helped him get nominated in a joking matter:p
Ellen never said he was the only one to achieve this. Pretty sure she was just letting people know of his great achievements seeing as he was performing, not Adele.
he was basically singing acapella for the first 2 minutes, and still sounded better than 3/4 of the singers today. i don't know how he does it, he's just an incredible and talented artist, so much respect for him
