Her recent Royal Albert hall performance just cemented her place in history along side the very best names in the craft, it will be talked about in the same reverence as the Nina Simone's etc of this world without question in years to come and the icing on the cake is she did it on an independent vibe, maximum respect from this music fan.🔥😎👌
Great move of Jools to invite RAYE to his Hootenanny 2023. This was a unique performance of this song in a totally different style compared to the original, which shows here skills of bringing a suitable performance wherever she goes. Another unique performance was in the Royal Albert Hall with The Heritage Orchestra. She is just 26 and I hope that she has a great career ahead of her!
Wow. RAYE. That was something else. What an exceptionally talented young lady. Outstanding performance and absolutely love her new ‘take’ on what was already such an amazing song 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Brilliant. Best show in AGES.
How the pianist is admiring her. She´s a real GODESS. I´m watching this performance on loop atm cause it´s insanely good. Have´nt seen anything like this in a long time. I love her so much. This song, every lyric of it goes right into my heart and it hurts just like a year ago when I first heard it. The depression is trying to kill me, but I know I´m stronger. Thank you for your music RAYE. Sometimes it´s keeping me alive and killing me at the same time. Your wounds are healing mine. And I deeply want to thank you for that. If you´re really 26 than I´m even more amazed. Because I´m also 26 and love to sing and went through hell and back. But I never believed that I really could sing because I´m such a perfectionist just like everyone in my family. So I only sang alone. Only now I´m trying to show my voice to people that want to hear it and really listen to thw worlds I´m saying. Noone really listens in this world. But I hear you. Thank you, again.
Absolutely love this girl. Raye you are amazing and have such a beautiful voice. I’ve been listening to your music about 6 years on UA-cam and I knew you was special back then. You deserve everything you want in life x
Love that this is so much happier than the original version. The darkest line - there's been some dark days lately and I'm finding it crippling - has been cut out and replaced by a joyful piano solo. I hope RAYE is also much happier after an amazing breakthrough year!
That was beautiful but at the same time sad and nostalgic as well. This music, this attitude, this carefree during the performance. Every time a new version of the song, a song that even though it explodes on tiktok it's not shit… that’s why I love Raye
Amy Winehouse literally started a new conveyor belt for the music industry to try and reproduce, she inspired a whole range of things, fashion, music - jazz instrumentals and london realistic lyrics, vocal style, performance style. It's crazy, she only had two albums but shifted it all.
Watched jools Holland hootenanny at new year their 2024 blown away with r.a.y.e. performance then to read about her past WOW is the biggest understatement of the century I'll let her song's speak. 😮😢❤❤❤❤
There you are! Good old BBC live Lounge to show a more accurate story and the roots of an artist and how they feel in a song. Well what a song with your heart singing out. Well done for showing your true self and how you feel in a song. I have never heard of you until the Brits! but well done. A great song and beautifully sung out and how things are experienced but i hope not by yourself. Such an informative song. Had to reverse engineer the song through your various releases but came back to this one. This is you completely you at your best and explaining.. Keep this up please.
Is this simply her best incarnation yet? Jools watching her go for it was a picture. Hes just thinking my God this woman is special and the whole band, singers and Jools are lost in the moment. Better than good, swing like this is on the level of the best you can get.
Always brings something different to her live performance. Incredible.
Like bringing Amy Winehouse.
Not expecting to hear the jazz version of Escapism. This is on another level.
why is it on another level.
@@larkdodge1403 Turning a fast-paced pop song into a slow-paced jazz song isn't an easy feat. We see several fails with it before.
I will never get tired of escapism. Every version of the song is great.
I am 60 and I am so pleased to find this lady . Her voice is absolutely outstanding . I hope I get to see her in concert one day
Her RAH concert is being shown by the BBC on 3rd Jan 👍
I agree with U. Btw I'm 51 and I always enjoy this type of music, in fact I'm a lover of jazz voices and also Soul, Hip-Hop, Funk, Reggae and R&B.
@@fnordvelkor3386 thank you
Likewise at 59!!
10:45 pm Uk!!!!!
This was great. She's such a talent.
Yes seems two bits bobbling are required though because many women in Jazz/ Swing have amazing vocals.

Perfectly said!!

I love that she does a new version every time she performs this song. Brilliant lady.
Her vOICE SUITS SO WELL WITH JAZZ I-
This performance is pure gold; it brilliantly showcases her unique style and creativity 😍
Raye is a freaking musical GENIUS!
Wow. RAYE. That was something else. What an exceptionally talented young lady. Outstanding performance and absolutely love her new ‘take’ on what was already such an amazing song 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Brilliant. Best show in AGES.

I love how flirty she is. The hair always gives🥰💃🏽
She's my favorite 😍
Versatile, genius and ground breaking beautiful artist.
Raye killing it once again just changing it up and making it her song.......so much talent oozing out of this fine young lady!

Great night for RAYE and the rest of us too. Happy Hootenanny everybody. Slainte.
ABSOLUTE QUEEN. this is everything
strains of Amy Winehouse. miss her but Raye is rare. She is a sensual, unapologetic diva in training.
Flawless. Simply flawless! She is such a talent! ❤❤❤
Absolutely love this girl. Raye you are amazing and have such a beautiful voice. I’ve been listening to your music about 6 years on UA-cam and I knew you was special back then. You deserve everything you want in life x

Yes, this is testament to how brilliantly her mind works in everything she puts forth and creates.
That was beautiful but at the same time sad and nostalgic as well. This music, this attitude, this carefree during the performance. Every time a new version of the song, a song that even though it explodes on tiktok it's not shit… that’s why I love Raye
holyshit i love this jazzy version ❤😮
I just discovered her and I’m so obsessed
I love big band!!! Raye lead them beautifully!!!
Amazing version. She smashed it!

I love Raye & Jazz, we need a Jazz album from her.
Just outstanding.Full stop.
RAYE ATE THIS PERFORMANCE UP!!!! I LOVE ALL THE VERSIONS OF ESCAPISM!!!!!
LOVE this arrangement. Superstar in the making, RAYE has it!
Sooooooooo different to the boom, boom, vibe of the original...amazing!
Amy Winehouse literally started a new conveyor belt for the music industry to try and reproduce, she inspired a whole range of things, fashion, music - jazz instrumentals and london realistic lyrics, vocal style, performance style. It's crazy, she only had two albums but shifted it all.
The horns reminded me of her
Jazz is it.
Except this girl is all individual, no major record company, no fancy production behind her. All her own woman.
@armchairboxing2071 yes, yes, yes!!!!!
I think Winehouse would have loved Raye.
I love her. I’ve listened to so many versions of this and it never tires. She’s beautiful and so real. ❤
So many version but all magnificent!
❤ RAYE❤
Te amo
Brasil esperamos RAYE
2024 show
She's a wonderful singer and comes across as a lovely person. I really enjoyed the Louis Theroux programme featuring her recently.
Last year I sang Escapism. with tears in my eyes. 2024 I sang Escapism. with sass and hairflip ❤
Wow. Love it.
Watched jools Holland hootenanny at new year their 2024 blown away with r.a.y.e. performance then to read about her past WOW is the biggest understatement of the century I'll let her song's speak. 😮😢❤❤❤❤

There you are!
Good old BBC live Lounge to show a more accurate story and the roots of an artist and how they feel in a song.
Well what a song with your heart singing out.
Well done for showing your true self and how you feel in a song.
I have never heard of you until the Brits! but well done.
A great song and beautifully sung out and how things are experienced but i hope not by yourself.
Such an informative song.
Had to reverse engineer the song through your various releases but came back to this one.
This is you completely you at your best and explaining..
Keep this up please.

Amazing talent!
Is this simply her best incarnation yet? Jools watching her go for it was a picture. Hes just thinking my God this woman is special and the whole band, singers and Jools are lost in the moment. Better than good, swing like this is on the level of the best you can get.
I can’t stop listening to this. Her talent is incredible, she should put this version on all of her platforms!!
