Its one thing to have the voice, Its another thing entirely to be able to create that out of a few chords. His voice is 1/4 of his talent. But yes I love it also ^^
He used falsetto. You can totally do it too. Ever pretend to talk in a high pitched girly voice? That’s falsetto. Now just match his notes and sing along when he does it too
I think of my daughter when I hear this and her life when she is older. It would break my heart to think she would ever feel like you feel when you wrote this. You don't know me, but I just wanted to say it will get better for you Emily, I promise. Have a hug. :)
Your daughter is so fortunate to have you Stefan, thanks for that kind comment, I usually don't see UA-cam comments since they're full of hateful people, but I'm glad I did today
Dyed in the wool you've been cornered by a natural desire You want to hop along with this giddy throng through life But how will you learn to steer If you're grinding all your gears? You've been talking for hours You say "time will wash every tower to the sea" And now you've got this worry in your heart. Well, I guess it's only life It's only natural We all spend a little while going down the rabbit hole The things they taught you They're lining up to haunt you They've got your back against the wall. I call you on the telephone Won't you pick up the receiver? I've been down the very road you're walking now It doesn't have to be so dark and lonesome It takes a while but we can figure this thing out And turn it back around You used to be such a lion Before you got into all this crying on my lap Back when you thought I'd never get this far. But did you really think I'd shut an open door? The future's calling and I'm going to answer The wheels in motion I never drank your potion And I know it breaks your heart. Open up your parachute Something's got to stop the free-fall. I've been down the very road you're walking on It doesn't have to be so dark and lonesome Takes a while but we can figure this thing out and turn it back around.
James do you need to poopie? Jameeees. Don't lie to me. Jameees. James! James stop that! That's it go potty now. We're not recording till you go potty.
Thank god you can't for people like you. This is an amazing & raw version of this song. Clearly, you have a bad ear for good music with all your distasteful comments on this video. 😂
i wish i had a voice like that...but I'm so glad I can enjoy Mercer's voice

@@russell7790 Well boi, he's using head voice too, so it's not that simple. Still ur right, it's possible to learn :)
This song has gotten me through a lot of rough times. For real. :)
Blast it in looped
this song has meant so much to me for a long time
Hello friend how are you doing today
@@robertterry9359 I’m great and I hope you are too :)
Fine thanks for asking... So tell me were are you from
Fine thanks for asking
Love this song with all my heart. It makes me feel that one day my life won't be a piece of crap.

open your parachute. It's gonna be fine.
How's it going now?
Love this acoustic version, intimate, beautiful.
Dude. I gotta say. I'm a fan. This is one my top 5 favorite songs ever.
Anyone else listening in quarantine?
Yep, so lonesome now
The way he sings the word "thing" in "thing out" on 2:10 is just amazing. It's not recorded like this but that addition is just lovely.
I thought the same thing. I love all the live variations of songs because of stuff like this. :)
crazy beautiful
Call you on the telephone, why don't you pick up the receiver? ......
Open up your parachute.... something got to stop the freefall....
this is so beautiful man and James Mercer has a lovely voice i wish i could sing like him
You have no idea how much I love this song, James Mercer ❤️
Perfection on every level.
Now I have this worry in my heart.......
This song means a lot to me 😢❤️❤️
Love the falsetto in his voice like magic!
Damn. I love this song.
this just made me cry.
Wow... That was truly perfect.
James Mercer is a god
Absolutely Beautiful
Ahhh this cover makes me appreciate his voice so much more (and I thought it was pretty damn good before).
It's hard to believe that he said he was trying to hide his voice on "Oh Inverted World."
Great voice beautifull song
This song gets me everytime
so beautiful
My God this is soooo fucking good
This song is how I want to love someone
Great talent!
Hello friend how are you doing today
I really love his voice :')
Dyed in the wool you've been
cornered by a natural desire
You want to hop along
with this giddy throng through life
But how will you learn to steer
If you're grinding all your gears?
You've been talking for hours
You say "time will wash every tower to the sea"
And now you've got this worry in your heart.
Well, I guess it's only life It's only natural
We all spend a little while going down the rabbit hole
The things they taught you
They're lining up to haunt you
They've got your back against the wall.
I call you on the telephone
Won't you pick up the receiver?
I've been down the very road you're walking now
It doesn't have to be so dark and lonesome
It takes a while but we can figure this thing out
And turn it back around
You used to be such a lion
Before you got into all this crying on my lap
Back when you thought I'd never get this far.
But did you really think I'd shut an open door?
The future's calling and I'm going to answer
The wheels in motion
I never drank your potion
And I know it breaks your heart.
Open up your parachute
Something's got to stop the free-fall.
I've been down the very road you're walking on
It doesn't have to be so dark and lonesome
Takes a while but we can figure this thing out and turn it back around.
Less than a month, Shins in Cleveland!!!!
Amazing art .....
God, I love his voice. Just *LOVE* it.
Awesome tune
Uma das minhas preferidas.
I can't believe this song is 10 years old and I'm just finding out about it.
The vocal phrasing at 1:00 is so great.
I love you, man.
Going down he rabbit hole......
“It doesn’t have to be so dark and lonesome...”
❤️❤️❤️
Pretty sure that the last 400 reproductions of this video was because of me.
♥
how does he get that C so clean! U_U mine sounds like im playing it through a dixie cup fulla water
Still grinding gears at 53 but, what is a giddy throng? I'm hopping along though.
Happy crowds. I always thought he was talking about someone pretending to fit into a scene they didn't belong in
Every day I am thankful for James Mercer and his ability to prove that singing can be wonderful and beautiful even coming from men.
wow
I love you.
fucking beautiful
Quelle voix
Holy fuck that was beautiful
no autotune needed
Do you guys use a cloudlifter on that re20? Vocals sound good
better than recording version i guess
Amazing. I think it sounds better with the rest of the band though.
James do you need to poopie? Jameeees. Don't lie to me. Jameees. James! James stop that! That's it go potty now. We're not recording till you go potty.
Jesus Fucking Christ
Christ fucks Jesus?
Fuck, that was the gayest way to start a jam ever.
Seriously wish I could dislike this more than once.
Thank god you can't for people like you. This is an amazing & raw version of this song. Clearly, you have a bad ear for good music with all your distasteful comments on this video. 😂
