*Lyrics*
How does it feel
When it’s quiet and calm
And will I be denied
How will it feel
When it’s time to move on
Mother says kneel and pray
When it gets hard
I will roll those sleeves
Life can be so unkind
I will be found on the edge of the world
Where there will be no one around
Oh solid ground
How does it feel to be on your own
No one to understand
I know I’m here and I don’t belong
I’m on my knees today
When it gets dark
I will know no fear
Life can be so unkind
Hanging around on the edge of the world
Finally no one around
Oh
Would you help me
I don’t understand
Is it over
Am I losing solid ground
Solid ground
I'm on my knees today ✋
Tought you guys would fix my lyrics, did it 10 hours before you hahah I'm so addicted to this sound that I couldn't wait for the official lyrics release.
@Colors , please look into artists from Kerala, India.. there's Job Kurien, Sooraj Nambiar from Masala Coffee , Agam the band and so many others.
Such a beautiful depressing song
At first i thought it was Nina Simone, heard it at the end of a Blacklist,
When the first notes came out from his mouth I felt home again
Totality
Ikenna Ahamefula Totality?
Chicken4life home again home again
I agree. Another one of my favorite artists. His lyrics are so poignant and reach into the depths of the soul.
love the song and artist- wanted to make comment and you said it best so I'm using yours credited to Chicken4life-well said
The background colour matches the mood of the song. Perfection.
Courtney Jazz I’m pretty sure that’s the point
I was thinking like a dark orange-ish, kinda like a sunset but yeah, awesome song!
felt like time has stopped, this performance is out of this world
Totally agree... Amazing
Takes something special to sing and play the keys like this. Simplicity at its absolute finest.
Virtual Farmer Nick check his mahogany sessions out
Plays guitar well to !

One of my favourites
Has a Ray Charles influence
My biggest flex of 2020 was seeing him live at Palace Theatre before the pandemic. I cried & made friends. Everyone in the audience embraced him. Everyone was silent when needed. Everyone left healed.
Wow! Im happy for you that you experienced this! Memories never die :)
I would have loved to experience that. Lucky!
That's so beautiful
@@fayfay3470 it truly was
This is a huge flex sister, you have my jealousy
This is the warmth and harshness at the same time
I promise you there’s no better feeling of peace than driving down the coast, windows down, and the smell of the ocean waters while listening to Michael.
Un artiste que j'admire, il a ce talent d'apaiser par ses mots, ses notes, sa musique...
Love an hate
Diable que tu as raison
Feels like its not only the piano and him, there is a whole groove going on here
⫷ °⧭° ⫸
It’s called reverb
Groovin
soul
There’s something funky going down here man
his piano looks like caramel candy and it looks delicious
L Hunt 😂😂😂
u hungry hungry
It's a giant caramel kit kat
You obviously have got the munches, big time :-)
Yeah let’s eat it
His voice is smooth as butter on one of Grandma's hot biscuits...
weird statement
He sounds like he matured in Nina Simone's womb to the sounds of Otis Redding. He makes it seen that his laughter sounds like Maya Angelou
@@ivyandcallalily2076 keen observations. Nice
@@cyrillewis9606 weird flex but ok
Thank you, Animal Kingdom, for introducing me to this brilliance.
he's warming my cold little heart
There's a saying that "Everything new is actually well-forgotten old" and I hope we'll see the renaissance of the lo-fi soulful male music soon. This man is a forerunner of Labrinth, Khalid, Maverick Sabre and Joji caliber that I've never heard of before. Thanks again, COLORS.
Dude, enjoy his last albums. Soooo gooood and timeless
@@nurrealsupertramp8617 I'm scanning Spotify for them right now. Thanks for the feedback.
Enjoy✌❤
Loving Mr Sabre....!
I have seen him perform 4 times. An amazing artist. His1st albums never leaves my car. Its probably 7 years I've been listening to him. Amazing
The sheer beauty of his voice and words make me cry. Why is that? Maybe because he's putting my feelings into words the way I wish I could.
This man can't put out a bad song. Every single one is phenomenal.
Kiwanuka's voice feels like home.
Damn!! This is fye. Goosebumps 🔥🔥🔥🇰🇪🇰🇪
Mwaniki Mwaniki ya he’s Ugandan
He's Ugandan
Our Neighbors Uganda representing 🔥🔥
So soulful and deep! And Michael's shoes blend so well with his keyboard ... this guys got style too! Bravo!
Blacklist soundtrakcs are on another level 💯💎
Micheal: ~how doe-
Me: *presses like button*
If I were a judge on the Voice, that's when I would turn my chair around
This was playing in the Season 2 finale of All American - one of my favourite dramas of all time.
All American got me here #Season2
Same same🇰🇪
Gives me Modern Day Nina Simone vibes ✨love it
BlondiieK Came here to say that. Im sure he’s a fan.
You nailed it!
He's the best! I listen to "Cold Little Heart" every single day!!
same
Man...... I just cried to this song 🙈😔
You never forget a voice like this. He had me hooked since ‘Cold Little Heart’ 😭
Brings you home to a place you didn't know, but you know you belong.
I just watched Kandahar and heard this song. You came out of left field! The keyboard, with your voice and soul, I love it.
He's soulful, please dont get sucked up, please stay true to yourself. Stay strong, stay safe!
How is he doing so little, and it sounds like so much. The restraint is just amazing.
Sometimes the music is so good it's hits you too hard. The song hurts.
I feel comforted the minute that this song begins to play
His voice is amazing!
This song is a combination of emotions that last a lifetime.
I love you COLORS ❤️🙌🙌 U never dissapoint💯
Michael is like movie music what you makes you keep watching a movie but you never find this song. He is extraordinary and we lack musicians like him nowadays and I must thank Big Little Lies TV show for making him more known for public. All of his songs are just soul resting. I hope colors bring more singers like him into this channel. I can't wait Leon Bridges to sing
Uganda stand up, Any African peeps to give this a like
I've never felt proud of someone I didn't know like this💥
That's my jam :D
Anyone else immediately get transported inside Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind?
one of my very favorite artists right now
such a soul resting music. it feels like someone playing in his living room, all alone, looking for solid ground on his music, on his life.
I remember listening to cold little heart for the first time and feeling calm and nostalgic. Can’t wait to hear more from him 💕
I was floored when I saw him play "I'm Getting Ready" live on Letterman years ago. His music is touching on a whole different level, and I'm so happy to see him here. I never clicked on a UA-cam video so fast. Awesome job getting this guy, COLORS.
Such a voice, gosh. Thank you Colors, always bringing us fresh music♥️
How does this not have 100 million views? What a brilliant musician and lyricist.
This is a vibe. I can definitely paint and listen to him all day in my room.
'golden' shoes to go with a golden voice...
this is literally so soothing and the vocals is like...... y'know what I'm bloody speechless.
YESSSSSSSS THANK YOI FOE BRINGING HIM !!!!! love him 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 he always sings form the depths of his soul . truly truly so beautiful!! I felt that ! chills !!
I love Kiwanuka's music so much !
This song and the texture in his voice. Soulful for sure. Killed it
“When it gets dark, I will know no fear”
Woooo! My reassurance in following Christ right there!!! Thank you sir 🤗
I'm in love with Michael Kiwanuka!!!
Beautiful 😍😍
Michael is unbelievably talented. Loving his soulful songs till the first album. Bless you!
Soulful....Thank you Michael for such a beautiful song
I can't even. Everything this guy do is pure gold!
I saw this guy live MANY years ago and he was absolutely incredible. He also seemed like such a cute little soul. So happy to see he's still doing well 🥰
I have never been this excited!!!! Haven't watched it yet but I am here since I am super excited. Go Michael
I love colors it gives me life
The colors are so beautiful and he’s voice makes me feel a type of way. It’s just so beautiful I love it
I LOVE YOU COLORS. THANK YOU FOR EXIST
this song is truly something else.. can't even begin to describe the feelings I go through listening to it.
I remember listening to his music was I was little. My mum and dad would play his music in the kitchen as they cooked. Especially the song 'tell me a tale'. His voice make me feel so nostalgic. Beautiful.❤
So much smooth tone and richness! Timeless performance !
That's what I call a masterpiece!
this made me cry for no reason, love the atmosphere he creates
Whenever i listen to this song, i can imagine myself at the edge of the cliff where it meets the sea. It's dark grey, kinda stormy, windy & cold.
Wow. Just wow. Unrecognized talent. In loss of words... just amazed that music like this still exist. 🙌🏾🙏🏾
the sound of these keyboards touched my soul
Wow wow wow he just blessed us with that voice
“Life can be so unkind”. Such a simple line yet so effective. Delivery is key ✨
Colors I love you for this!! ❤
Bro… your skills sound like they are coming from solid ground, melody, harmony, variation, heart! absolute perfection.
Your performances are so rock solid.
Thank you,
Lots a love man.
AMAZING, Michael is just something else...
His voice is so breathtaking 😢
His “Home Again” is also very classic 👌🏽
Michael leads me places with his voice and they're all beautiful
Ran across his music 2 weeks ago. All I can say wow!!!! Music for the soul and mind. I'm mad that I just found out who he is, but I'm glad I found this dude. PURE SOUL!!!!!
Just amazing talent! It appears simplistic, yet the vocals and what the lyrics are telling us are definitely not "simple". This is such an amazing art piece. We cannot forget this artist!
Love the transition from bridge to chorus at the end
True Talent. Can't Wait to listen to the whole album. I feel like I am on SOLID GROUND already.
so proud
This man’s voice!
Brilliant! Just brilliant!
love his vibe always
What a blessing to have this Maestro
So mesmerizing watching this performance
Thx, fantastic song/voice. Woke up early morning 3 AM after a max 3 hour sleep as usual in the last month of pain coz of a broken shoulder--this was simply fantastic song, my tears running, but at peace. Bless U Michael
so smooth on the keys
Certain music is just spiritual. Goosebumps and all of the feels ❤️
I love this guy
Thanks for introducing me to new (to me) artists. He's so talented!
check out his song 'Cold Little Heart'. Hit's me right in the heart. Beautiful song
"The Final Frame", also 😊
Honestly all his songs 😉
Father's Child is a phenomenal record as well. So raw and one of the more underappreciated songs from his last album.
His song Cold Little Heart is one of my all-time favorites.
my old man said that a song was a gift
So soothing
Dude I friggin LOVE Michael Kiwanuka. The Colours Playlist was on in the background for me, as soon as the first note hit, chills down the spine. Not surprised to see its Michael. Thank you Colors!
This one touched the heart a little bit.
