If you guys ever see a live show his performance will hit you like a fucking train. He has great energy and you can tell he loves singing. Never stops smiling and gets so absorbed into the music you can even see it in his eyes when he gets lost.
I hate how Gavin Degraw is underrated. This is some real talent to perform this good live. Better than any singers nowadays. I wish more people knew about him.
This is what I love about music. A song (Cupid) that I loved before Gavin Degraw even started making a name for himself. Then I hear Gavin Degraw for the first time and instantly know I enjoy his music and have loved his music ever since. And then, as if the world made it happen, he sings this song.
I used to love the original when I was a kid - seriously used to listen to it all the time. I love that he has covered it. He just keeps on giving me more reasons to love his music - counting down till november.
Love his perfomance on this one! Just cannot stop listening to it!! It's addictive... LOve Gavin Degraw! He is a really talented guy and he shows simplicity,which I really admire!
Lord... What a perfect song.. Isn't in amazing how to listen to a song can make us express all that we feel, and for some reason we can't say? .. That's it.. Luv it!
I was away at college my first year or so, I'd fall asleep with the TV on, I remember this performance waking me up and I was so glad to have caught it, I was already a bit of a GD fan but I was pretty much sold afterwards. I still wonder if I just happened to wake up or if the opening notes and vocals were so beautiful to me that my subconscious wouldn't allow me to remain asleep. One of those weird moments in my music history, he was actually my first concert, (Chariot tour) I wasn't quite old enough to buy alcohol in the US :| (takes sip) :) great experience either way. I need an analyst I know, sorry to ramble. Good memories
How can you not get choked up listening to this. He is so underrated. Tracks of my tears is one of my favorite songs of all-time too. I'd love to just hang out with him.
Gavin just makes me turn off the world, more exactly this song. There are no words to describe the feeling I feel right now, he has two gifts, compose and sing .
same here. I've been listening to the older generations of music that I would have never even considered before. Some of what I've been listening to is, Ray Charles, Smokey, Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong... the list goes on. Great singers.
Precious... sings amazing. "Gavin, you are THE VOICE" 😉🏆 Great rendition to amazing singers and songwriters #SmokeyRobinson #TheMiracles #TrackofMyTears #Cupid #SamCooke #Motown
I don't understand how the hell this didn't blow up huge back in 04!?? It's just as good as the original if not better and that's a tough song to be as good as.... very underrated singer
One of the best covers of The Miracles 1967 Motown smash and with a jazzy feel at that. I know all the words to this song and it has always been one of my favorites. since it's introduction on WCHB in Detroit.
He was my first concert ever back in 2004...he was opening for Michelle Branch :) It was an awesome concert! we had front row seats and it was a lot of fun.
sang this the other night just like he plays it. While I'm not half the singer this guy is, there wasn't a dry female eye in the house! this is amazing
he is one of the most talented artists today. Don't judge him off of his covers (although they are pretty good). Listen to some of HIS music. I guarantee you you'll be impressed.
It's 2023 and here I sit.. still in awe. Gavin is amazing.
July 2023🙋
2024 baby!
13 years later and I'm still coming back to this incredible performance
Stephen Tisdale same same....
Same. 2020.
14 years. Same.
It’s the first time time I’ve seen this performance but will definitely be listening to it again. Gavin is fantastic no matter what he is singing
Same here...
One of the most underrated musicians of our time... incredible
His music is incredible
So sad :'(
I kind of love it though cause i continue to see him live in intimate settings.
Been coming back to this video for years
Still here...
Same here! Such a great song!!!!
kylefly1, me too
I feel ya
I come back to this video once every few months. One of my fav live performances by him ♥️
So much soul his so inspiring this is my favorite version so stripped down
Agreed!
Agreed as a big (The) White Buffalo fan, true talent doesnt always mean success. Pretty sad that its the way it is
Yeah ikr, *1 million people* is nothing
If his own songs had this soul, he would have gotten that shine. Unfortunately, he’s always best singing someone else’s songs.
I wish this was recognised by more people, he's insanely good!
It’s 2024 and I’m still listening to this.🥹. This man changed me.
14 years later still amazes me.
Gavin's version of tracks of my tears is the best! he really gives the song some "soul"
2024, and I'll never stop coming back for this. It's a masterpiece.
How talented is Gavin?
Truly one of the best voices of our generation and not many people know it.
If you guys ever see a live show his performance will hit you like a fucking train.
He has great energy and you can tell he loves singing. Never stops smiling and gets so absorbed into the music you can even see it in his eyes when he gets lost.
So soulful. I can feel every note.
trust me Real Soul !
The Day He won my heart been a fan every since...had the pleasure to meet him 2x 🤟 ❤sent from TN 💙Chariot
I hate how Gavin Degraw is underrated. This is some real talent to perform this good live. Better than any singers nowadays. I wish more people knew about him.
Takes me back to my first summer after freshman year at university. His entire first album was my soundtrack 🥲☺️
the best artist out today, period.
SO MUCH EMOTION in his voice.. makes me wanna fall inlove and be the most romantic man a girl has ever wanted..
So much talent
he is one of the best singer this generation!!!!i hope that he come to our country to perform and serenade us to his songs!!!!
One of my all time favorites. Back here again after finding Gavin again on TikTok
I want to see him live sooooo badly!!!!!!
so proud to say I've been a fan since day 1.... love you Gavin, always have. always will. beautiful soul.
The originals are such amazing songs and this is really the only cover of both that does them any justice.

I saw him on Monday - one of the best nights of my life!
I have never been so moved before - ever.
Love his perfomance on this one! Just cannot stop listening to it!! It's addictive... LOve Gavin Degraw! He is a really talented guy and he shows simplicity,which I really admire!
Lord...
What a perfect song..
Isn't in amazing how to listen to a song can make us express all that we feel, and for some reason we can't say?
.. That's it..
Luv it!

I'm a die hard alice in chains/soundgarden 90s grunge movement fan...but this dude killed it...
Wow! Gavin is the real thing! Deeply soulful, unpolished and pure talent! That's what music should be all about.
love it, brings me good old memories when life was simpler.
Man....never knew till just now Gavin did a cover of this song...it's awesome
I was looking for Smokey's version and saw this. WOW never thought anyone could compete with Smokey, but this version by Gavin is so incredible.
This is really amazing ❤️ So much soul and control in his voice.
How can you not get choked up listening to this. He is so underrated. Tracks of my tears is one of my favorite songs of all-time too. I'd love to just hang out with him.
totally love this guys voice.....very nice
This man is uniqe and an amazing singer and song writer. He should have much more cred for his musicianship. ❤
Gavin just makes me turn off the world, more exactly this song. There are no words to describe the feeling I feel right now, he has two gifts, compose and sing .
What an unbelievable performance. easily one of the best live performances of this decade.
favourite song of the year!still not getting old, love singing along to thisx
I'm in total awe. Truly amazing
His voice is everything!
how can he sing so easily, this is amazing, alone with piano... just perfect!
same here. I've been listening to the older generations of music that I would have never even considered before. Some of what I've been listening to is, Ray Charles, Smokey, Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong... the list goes on. Great singers.

20 years later 🙋🏻♂️
Amazing! Mr degraw your what i call a true artist! Rock on forever
Simply amazing. I listen to this on repeat over and over... ahhh.
he inspires all my music he's amazing and i wish there were more male vocalists like him.
I don't understand how the hell this didn't blow up huge back in 04!?? It's just as good as the original if not better and that's a tough song to be as good as.... very underrated singer
WHAAAAT, Gavin DeGraw plays this song even better - listen to this, it's SO incredibly amazing.
I remember watching this when it first aired. I even taped it. I watched it over and over again that winter. :]
i love gavin soo much, he has an incredible voice!
One of the best covers of The Miracles 1967 Motown smash and with a jazzy feel at that. I know all the words to this song and it has always been one of my favorites. since it's introduction on WCHB in Detroit.
Goosebumps. He's a natural. Completely relaxed and in control. Wow.
I love this song
Very nice! Two of my all-time favorite songs. He has such a great voice. Really cute guy too! A shame I only just discovered him this year.
this guy is truly amazing. my favorite artist for sure!
He was my first concert ever back in 2004...he was opening for Michelle Branch :) It was an awesome concert! we had front row seats and it was a lot of fun.
I think you deserve a grammy😆
What a nice song! I just lovin' it, Wel done, Gavin. You are my hero!
When he started off on piano I thought he was gonna play "Have a Little Faith in Me". Bet he would tear up that one too. Great job!
Fk yea he should of done alot more covers lol
Same. Both songs sound similar...
Still coming back to this one ❤
One of my favourite songs. That was so well sung. Brings back memories from 2004!
so soulful... :)
Man this guys is great!
Effortless, perfect voice.. not pitchy or flat. The best artists are always in the shadows.
can't stop listening to this
sang this the other night just like he plays it. While I'm not half the singer this guy is, there wasn't a dry female eye in the house! this is amazing
love this rendition
You got soul! Great cover!
this has to be in my top 3 favorite live anythings ever.
One of the few artists who i think is better live than on an album. Great Cover of Smokey...
he's doing a pretty damn good job covering this classic
A super talent and a super nice young man
I always come back here its on my phone too so beautiful thank you so much Gavin
i was hypnotized for 4 min and 18 sec.!! WOW
Man this this still so great in 2022
Gonna see him in November - I can't wait.
he is one of the most talented artists today.
Don't judge him off of his covers (although they are pretty good). Listen to some of HIS music. I guarantee you you'll be impressed.
He has one of the best vocal ranges that I've heard on a male artist.
absolutely blown away
Legend
Your voice is amazing
