Was reading an article about the bands and payments for views on you tube. The crandberries got approx $100,000 for about 1 billion views! James is probably not making that much from his views. He needs to tour!
@@user-th6rh8zp3t James is better when he's covering someone else, like some sort of Anti-Bob Dylan. Finneas creates a different kind of arrangement that I find more appealing personally.
Vojech he was sayin James blake... meaning bob Dylan only does bob Dylan.... he was saying he enjoys james blake when he’s not doing James blake. God I’m so fuckin depressed. Good luck guys.
This is everything you want from a cover. He captures the spirit of the original while passively inserting his own soul into the song. That exchange between spirit & soul is the best you can expect from an artist.
Would love really to hear them do a duet, I think their voices would contrast one another in a great way but I also think James Blake can duet almost any artist and it be a master piece
I don't know why I stopped listening to James but obviously I need to get back into it. This was beautiful, that angelic voice needs to be heard by all!
Jesus. Well... listening to this just caused me to take a beat for myself on an otherwise hectic afternoon. I appreciate the upload. Amazing, as always, James Blake.
James, I'm a big fan and I listened to your Vincent cover everynight before I sleep during my depression days. And I still listen to em it's beautiful and thank you for doing what you do. This cover is everything, your voice is everything. Please cover more songs. I love you!
James Blake is the only singer that can do Billie's songs justice. All the other covers are just singers belting out and screaming and therefore missing out on any subtlety. Well done James! Such a moving cover.
Oh plz Blake plz give me a heart you'll make my day..I have been going through alot and lost alot of people I'm desperate and empty inside but when I listen to your songs I feel joy and hope everything will be fine...thank u dear.
I hardly ever like covers better than original songs, and never do I like a male cover of a female's song, but oh my God how this is above and beyond better than the original version!.. Wow, man, just wow!!!
@@HyenaFox The song is in E. Each phrase in the verse just starts and ends on the 4, which is A. James plays the song in C, and the chord in question is a F#7 with a b13 - which he substituted for the 6 minor. So if he'd have sung it in it's original key it would be an A#b13
A line cliche is when one notes moves against a stagnant chord, also sometimes called c.e.s.h. (chromatic embellishment of static harmony). He's voice leading through the chords (more than one note is changing), very similar to the original piano part - just using more color / getting outside of the triads for the I,IV,V,vi,ii chords. I liked the part at 3:01 where he seemed to crank the "esss" sound from his voice and pan it right. Maybe that's just the way the mics picked it up... sounded cool.
I remember hearing James Blake for the first time back in London in 2010. I was doing an internship in a DJ booking agency and my colleague made me listen to Limit to your love. Since than I have been a huge fan. Saw him in Montreux Jazz Festival, it was magical..Come back to Switzerland dude @jamesblake
Don't you know I'm no good for you? I've learned to lose you, can't afford to Tore my shirt to stop you bleedin' But nothin' ever stops you leavin' Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that Don't you know too much already? I'll only hurt you if you let me Call me friend but keep me closer (call me back) And I'll call you when the party's over Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own And I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that Yeah, I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that But nothin' is better sometimes Once we've both said our goodbyes Let's just let it go Let me let you go Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
it takes truly beautiful - hauntingly beautiful - music to both completely ruin and make my day at the same time. being embedded with true sadness, but at the same time, feeling so blessed to be able to hear what I’m hearing. James does this every single time.
I am about to have my shower, I lighted up a candle and I saw this.... My night could not have started any better. Thanks James for your head voice oh and simply your artistic vision. You have such a way to touch the piano and make music. You want us to feel every single note ....
Just wow! I don’t know the original, but, man, this performance is incredible. The control over everything - the voice and the 🎹. A genius stroke, James! Stunned!👍
Billie Eilish is unreachebale, but so is James Blake. This cover is incredible. Please James, make a song together with Billie, ti would be the perfection.
He's stretching the vocal high's a little but I have to give this guy all the kudos he deserves.One the most soulful singers of our age.He knows exactly what he's doing and he's moving you with his great style of singing.
he may have millions of hits on his songs but I still feel he's one of the under rated musicians of our generation. Absolutely SOULFUL performance.

James Blake is anything but underrated 🥰
Yeah that's the problem, the world is going after commercial songs which are like copy pastes🤦🏻♀️😭
James Blake love since ever
James Blake is like Midas of the music. Everything he touches turns gold.
Dude it was already gold before he touched it tbf
Ricardo Amorim fucking AGREEEE🙌🏽
I‘m a Fan Since I heard him the First Time🎼🌟🎼
I already loved the song.. but sung by him it shoots me even higher
Every time he remakes a track, it’s better than the original.
okay, my spotify is waiting for this version
please, we need that
🙌
Pleaseeeee
3 months later :(
Mine too😭😭
THIS IS WHAT I WANTED SINCE THAT CAME OUT
❤
I said the same thing! This cover was meant for James Blake
#BigFacts🙌🙌
When I first heared that Song by Billie I would have bet that it was a cover of a James Blake Song!
Saaaaame
he plays piano with such grace, it's just so effortless for him
tedsticle I think he’s classically trained
he is one with the piano
You could quite easily learn that too, what he is playing isn't hard at all
It is time for James Blake to collaborate with Finneas.
Sebastián Abril why? james runs circles around finneas as a producer
@@user-th6rh8zp3t James is better when he's covering someone else, like some sort of Anti-Bob Dylan. Finneas creates a different kind of arrangement that I find more appealing personally.
OMG YES
@@arbitermatt Lol who is Anti-Bob Dylan?

His latest album is amazing. Def worth a listen.
That's me right now. I'm sorry I was away, James.
I dont like his latest efforts, but his new song you're too precious is amazing
Never heard a cover from James Blake I didn't like
oh so true
I always thought this song sounded like a James Blake song
I believe Finneas cited James Blake as one of his sources of inspiration/influence but I may be wrong x
Me too! I even thought he wrote it for her...
@@KacperPpp They did.
xD
actually in this version I think it sounds exactly like something bon iver would write
Didn´t knew I needed this version
There are very few voices like his, nevermind the incredibly tasteful accompaniment, just amazing.
James Blake easily has one of the best voices of this generation. He will go down as one of the best of his time

Your vocal range is out of this world!
We deserve a whole album of covers from James Blake :( we deserving !!!
That tasty chord at 2:45 after that high note
It's such a James Blake chord lmao
Yeah, I think he borrowed from mixolydian mode. Sounds ace!
I thought I was the only one who loved that! There’s so much emotion in that small change
Oh plz Blake plz give me a heart you'll make my day..I have been going through alot and lost alot of people I'm desperate and empty inside but when I listen to your songs I feel joy and hope everything will be fine...thank u dear.
I don't know this gentleman and this is the first time I've heard this song and I am in tears absolutely Beautiful.
Okay now James, this flex was unnecessary. MY HEART!!!
can you imagine a collaboration between them? pure magic
My favorite male artist covering a song of my favorite female artist. I’m in tears
I hardly ever like covers better than original songs, and never do I like a male cover of a female's song, but oh my God how this is above and beyond better than the original version!.. Wow, man, just wow!!!
James Blake's voice consistently drips like molten gold, never knew I wanted this cover but it makes perfect sense!
We need a Billie Elish and James Blake collab. I'm sure they're already working on that
exactly im patiently witing
🦗🦗
I swear he starts adding his own chord at 2:27. He does it a few times, it sounds so sick
It's an eb7 chord
It's an Eb7, as someone below me mentioned, which is borrowed from a different key because Eb is not in the key of A, the key that this song is in.
@@HyenaFox The song is in E. Each phrase in the verse just starts and ends on the 4, which is A. James plays the song in C, and the chord in question is a F#7 with a b13 - which he substituted for the 6 minor. So if he'd have sung it in it's original key it would be an A#b13
This could also be referenced as a "line cliche", where you drop (or ascend) by half steps to the resolving chord. That's the way I hear it at least.
A line cliche is when one notes moves against a stagnant chord, also sometimes called c.e.s.h. (chromatic embellishment of static harmony). He's voice leading through the chords (more than one note is changing), very similar to the original piano part - just using more color / getting outside of the triads for the I,IV,V,vi,ii chords.

Great introduction to him
im so grateful to live in the same time with James
Goose bumps..... You've mastered you art, this is beautiful
You just get better and better with time.. like a fine wine 🍷
One of the best covers of this song
James Blake is the mascot singer for people with depression and anxiety and need that sweet release
Billie and James have been a huge part of the soundtrack of my life for the last months, they are the future.
Amen ❤
I pray they actually collab one day
I have goosebumps whenever I hear his voice!
There are no adjectives that describe this talent. Just James Blake...!
This is what was missing. Love them both so much.
I always find it kind of a bummer when a cover is even better than the original... But with James doing it, it couldn't be any other way. ♥️
Don't you know I'm no good for you?
I've learned to lose you, can't afford to
Tore my shirt to stop you bleedin'
But nothin' ever stops you leavin'
Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
Don't you know too much already?
I'll only hurt you if you let me
Call me friend but keep me closer (call me back)
And I'll call you when the party's over
Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own
And I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
Yeah, I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
But nothin' is better sometimes
Once we've both said our goodbyes
Let's just let it go
Let me let you go
Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
*I've learned to lose, you can't afford to*
it takes truly beautiful - hauntingly beautiful - music to both completely ruin and make my day at the same time. being embedded with true sadness, but at the same time, feeling so blessed to be able to hear what I’m hearing.

He nailed it. Love it 💖 They would make a beautiful duet
Beautiful James Blake...... It is awesome.....
I am about to have my shower, I lighted up a candle and I saw this.... My night could not have started any better. Thanks James for your head voice oh and simply your artistic vision. You have such a way to touch the piano and make music. You want us to feel every single note ....
Shower + candle 👍🏼🖤
I can lie and say I don't love it like this! Man this guy's is beyond talented. He hits brilliant falsettos with ease.
Amazing how he can reach notes that high! I'm in awe. ❤️
I saved this expression for this...."YES, OMG!". Two favorites coming together, collab now please! Necesitamos más de esto
A beautiful interpretation ... A pleasant and beautiful sharing! A delight. Thank you and well done!
Good afternoon.
Friendships .. Danielle

Just wow! I don’t know the original, but, man, this performance is incredible. The control over everything - the voice and the 🎹. A genius stroke, James! Stunned!👍
one word: PERFECTION
OHHH ME ENCANTA. GRACIAS JAMES
This mans too talented
Songs Mile High and when the party’s over are two of my most recent addiction nowadays.. and this is all i could ask for.
Mile high is so under appreciated
One of the best musicians now days!
Billie Eilish is unreachebale, but so is James Blake. This cover is incredible. Please James, make a song together with Billie, ti would be the perfection.
How many chords do you know James ? Or should I say is there any chords that you don’t know?
Who here heard his cover on the tv series “The Cleaning Lady” and immediately came to listen again 🔥😮💨
Amazing cover. Also props to Justin Vernon for these vibessss in general since 2008.
Lol yes Justin Vernon invented singing and piano
Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you Mr. Blake.
everything he touches becomes magic !
James Blake... the magician?
This was just sick loved it can't wait to hear a collaboration btw him and Billie and finneas
Wooooooo I can not believe this is happening!!!! Yaaaaaass!!!!
Can't stop listening. So touchable
Que cover lindo, que voz maravilhosa!❤😍👏🎶
James blake: all I need is one take and a piano. Thank you and goodnight (until tomorrow when u watch this again)
Your voice just sends me to another place. A better place.
why i'm cryin' in the club right now?
Most underrated artist in this industry
I’m not sure if this took something out of me or put something in me, but I feel so balanced now. James, james, james.
James Blake is always a good idea
I love James Blake!!! Awesome cover!!!

You are a genius, James.
This is one of the most beautiful things my ears have ever heard.
Beautiful 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Superb !!! I don't like the original version, and you turn it in gold ! Your voice, the emotion with the piano sound... Magic ! ♥♥♥

Simply incredible. I dream of making a song with James one day!!
Either him or Bon Iver. That's the musician's dream!!!
3 years later I’m here to tell you to keep chasing. I pray your journey is filled with ambition, and prosperity!
Didn't realize how much this fits Blake's style
My man James outperformed both Frank and Billie whilst covering some of their best tracks in the same project. GOAT
OMG, I've got tears in my eyes, this is so touching.
OMG.. love it. JB is amazing
you're incredibly magical, this song is unique.
This made me live another day
wow. the moment u started singing I audibly gasped. amazing.
OH WOW!!! You have a new fan! Spectacular!
He's stretching the vocal high's a little but I have to give this guy all the kudos he deserves.One the most soulful singers of our age.He knows exactly what he's doing and he's moving you with his great style of singing.
You sir, are underrated. Never stop creating.
You re amazing!!!! 🙏🏽✨
James - this is fcuking beautiful! Thank you for this.
