    Lyrics:
    [Verse 1]
    Nobody move, there's blood on the floor
    And I can't find my heart
    Where did it go? Did I leave it in the cold?
    So please give it back, cause it's not yours to take
    It must've fell when I lost my mind
    Deep in the cut, drowning in a pain
    Somebody help cause I can't find my way
    Nobody move, nobody move
    [Interlude]
    [Verse 2]
    Somebody tell me how I'm supposed to feel
    When I'm sitting here knowing this ain't real (ain't real)
    I've been traveling so long, I don't think I can hold on
    Where were you when I needed you the most?
    Why in the hell would I give my heart to you?
    Just to watch you throw it in the trash
    Now I'm sitting here with a black hole in my chest
    A heartless, broken mess

They sounded so good it reminded me how much I liked Thundercat's song Them Changes so I went back to listen to it again. A couple of hours later I find that Mac has passed and then this video pops up on my recommendations. Sung so beautifully by Ari. Who knows, maybe Mac introduced her to his music.......RIP Mac x

    • @JMiliam
      @JMiliam 5 років тому +126

    • @maxbeadnell5894
      @maxbeadnell5894 5 років тому +163

      Jamil Thats not the reason its ballsy. It's is because she is signed to a large label and she is required to maintain a certain persona for her fans. If a die hard Ariana fan payed to go and see her, they expect to see her perform the music they want to here. I doubt they would appreciate this as much. I wouldn't be surprised if she received push back from her managers when she asked to perform this song.
      after all they are the ones in charge of her.

    • @JMiliam
      @JMiliam 5 років тому +8

      @Junya I see that lmfao, seemed like they had to have the keyboardist play the part.
      @Max Except it's exactly the opposite. When you're such a big artist, you have so much more room to work with than other artists. I'm pretty sure these performances are within a closed studio so it's not like she was doing anything on her fan's dollar. I'm also pretty sure these BBC performances are supposed to all be covers as all the performances I've seen here have been covers (gambino, tame impala, etc). It's also nobody's place to say how much control she has over her own career, especially to say anyone is "in charge of her". There's no such thing as push back from managers as they MANAGE, they don't dictate. They can disagree with something you want to do but they're not her parents and she's not on nickelodeon anymore. It's commendable for her to perform a song by Thundercat, that's for certain, but to call it ballsy is a serious stretch. She's a grown ass adult that can make her own decisions. Shit, she can Britney Spears her way out of her position if she really wanted to. Ballsy would be her performing a Luther Vandross song or something else that's actually outside of her comfort zone.

    Nice cover of a GREAT song by Thundercat. And shoutout to the ISLEY BROTHERS for those Footsteps in the Dark drums.
