This performance is a spiritual experience. Music in its highest form. I think I´ll watch this to my dying day and still get chills every time...
Cheers brother, from one gob struck soul to another. This is transcendent and so much more precious than anything I can imagine.
Out of this world !! This thing . . . shocks me out, it breaks trought my everything. She is defenetly . . . I literally run out of words while that keeps playing.
And the band . . . all of them . . . This is an absolute fucking MIRACLE !! A PRESENT, gift . . . !
Can´t imagine anything more generous !! What a beautifull beings !!
More than SPECIAL !!
Reading this as I have watched it many times with tears in my eyes and chills on my skin… simply breathtaking music that speaks to one’s soul
Those backing vocalists are just another level. World class.
Yes!
7 years later and I'm still listening on repeat. Timeless, classic and absolutely amazingly beautiful.
I fuckin feel you. Had me in the gym tearin up lol. Such a beautiful song.
Same here!! Blasting it in the car as I'm driving home...singing at the top of my lungs and crying at the same time. This song is so beautiful...on so many levels!❤❤❤
Just like you, apparently they are immortal
If love could be put in words. this would be it
Yeah, you're right.
+OmfgMy namewontfi I understand
It casts a spell over all involved, even me.
Your words, well, nothing, be well
OmfgMy namewontf 000 pp000pppp00llp
Besides the fact that everything else is brilliant, the backup singers are glorious
100% the backgrounds are incredible
Yes! the whole ensemble is amazing. I like the little something piano kicks in at 1:17, the female vocalist at 1:53, guitars kicking back in at 2:06, the drum change at 2:37, male back up singer at 3:15. Even the camera man slayed on this video. This has gospel feels all over. I'm a believer, y'all!!! Kudos for documenting a case of perfect place, perfect time.
20 feet from stardom
I bawl over this song. It just hits me right in the tear ducts....but the male backup does me soooo wrong. I think I'm in love with him.
This makes me wish there was an award category for backup singers.
There are no words to explain how much this performance moves me. I come back to it all the time. Genuinely one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard in my life.
We all know that Brittany can sing, but let me say those backup vocals are just as incredible.
Well as vocalists they maybe superb, but I dare say that woman is quite special nonetheless!!! She's got more than an extra heaping helping of soul for real 🖤😩😩🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🙏🏼✌🏽✌🏻
god yes. i love you.
Ok those backup singers are fire
Totalmente de acuerdo. Es la mejor banda que escuche los últimos 10 años. Saludos desde Argentina.
I fucking live for the backing vocal dude that absolutely kills the last part and he knows it and he looks so satisfied and shit I am too because that's the culmination of this video. I love it. Every time.
2:56 until 3:20.... when the man finishes the note.... wow ...what a beautiful sound and fluency!!!
Marvelous.
This is gut wretchingly beautiful. If you ever honestly been in love, this captures the passion, intensity, ease, insecurity, uncertainty, beauty, thrust, overwhelming, desire, compromised, exposed, chaotic melody that it truthfully is. thank you Alabama Shakes. #mynewfab
Beautiful description 😊
Beautifully said. I am moved to tears reading this message and watching this performance.
Very well put!
You couldn’t have said it better...
well said
REPLAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! My family makes me stop playing this throughout the house. They don't understand the serenity I feel when I hear this song.
Right there with you play boi. This joint is on repeat on my way to work at night.
Here someone who gets it. Keep basking in your serenity.
Ix Chel 4 years later and no change
I be singing this at thanksgiving
Dude!! SAME!! Lol I said mom listen
And the 1st 4 seconds she bust out n a fake cry
She said that's y u n the droopy mode u n
Noone understands me and this medley..so I went and learned it on the piano and recorded an a capella w ambiance n the garage
I have been in love like this before. When it ended, it almost was the death of me. Still I am lucky. Most never experience this feeling in every fiber their existence! Love in the rawest, purest, form. Longingness and acceptance and all consuming! Thank you for this!
Listen to little girl blues buy janis japolin swear i had the same feeling and i cant say it enough music is where live and love begins
@@christopherkelleymonotonyb2135 thank you and sing that loud and often,honey! This world seems to have forgotten all about love that isn't eros- based 🖤🖤🖤
im not even ashamed to say i had a tear run down my cheek listening to this song. one of the most beautiful experiences of my life
Besides her absolutely incredible voice, the entire band just kills it. That bass is so fucking warm. Those drums are so precise and yet almost sound improvisational a bit. It's all just so beautifully crafted.
yep!!!!
r therm. n zsWrfyghhv o.hubs is is oxnnjubhcss was u not acct
u made a wonderful statement. I totally agree
Ethan Radomski ...Some real sound...love it♡
Ethan Radomski the backup singers rock.
People seem to think country is the south' distinctive sound. No. THIS is it. This is the soul song of the American south.
The way the lead/background vocals and instruments sync on this song is just amazing! Even the hand claps add a special touch. Furthermore, the song is performed with so much passion. Deeply touching.
I know right..omw
AUTHENTIC HAND CLAPS ARE ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING
Alabama Shakes makes me remember how great music can still be done with basic instruments like guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, and an amazing voice.
This is sounds like an invitation to go into a deep trance, gently close your eyes, forget about the world and live your last day peacefully.
Agreed.
Music aint dead with this woman around..
GOTDAAAAAAAAAMN... the use of the back-up singers; let it rain down on you! This lady been a rare gem and the band superb
fuck yes, like halfway through when the beauty on the far right does the echo, I just died and went to heaven!
Omg, so much yes!!! I love when she hops away with her little bare feet, too! The energy in this room is astounding!
Loving sodeeplyiminovermyhead ... backgrounds get me every damn time!
@@tobitaktlos3241 I love when she says "I feel it through all my past lives..." That's the lyric that reeled me in.
@@kristineve9080 "i don't think of you as bits and pieces" really captures how you feel about someone when you love them. You don't love 10 % or you don't just love single aspects of their personality but you love someone as a whole, with everything that comes with them. That makes love not only beautiful but dangerous as well. But you fall for someone regardless. With the song i don't even know where to start ... it's so beautiful and describes love so well without being cringe or cheesy or to shallow. Almost a realistic description instead of the dreamy worshiping touch other love songs have.
This band deserves to be known. It's not often you can find music this amazing. Her music has truly touched me.
She lives 3 houses down from me here in Nashville, TN!!! 😍
Wally Idaho yep!!!! 😊
give her a hug when you see her! lover her guts!
Tell her they have a fan here in Croatia! :-)
Loko Prirodna Kozmetika yes I will man it's hard to catch her. She tries to keep a low profile. I went walking saw her on the porch and said hi but didn't want to bother her because she normally tries to stare in the opposite direction when she sees people coming. I'm a huge fan and was into her music even before I knew she lived there but I want to respect her privacy. My mom saw her out walking with a couple of folk not too long ago and spoke but I was at work and missed it 😢. I would have approached her then... maybe next time 😀
You are so lucky! :)
"Lovein So Deeply" I forgot that I was cooking f-ing dinner and burned it! How can she do this to me?
🤣 that's how you know shesgotta gift..takes you to another world..💜
@@augustmoon5596 seriously!
You gotta check yoself, don't pass the blame lol but I feel it, I usually stop in my tracks, that voice...
💚💚💚💚💚💚🙂🙂🙂I hear you. I love this girl. She is sooo good, and sooo real and DEEP. She's completely new and a throwback.
@@pattiturner8080, beyond talented.
Man isn’t music just life?? Love all of you here so much. I’m feeling moved by this music right now and just want to live life and love
The ONLY thing I don't like about their songs is that they're too damn short. I could listen to the music and her singing this song for hours.
tf this is 4 minutes
suicidal man not long enough lol
Her voice just draws you in...and the music keeps you...the back up singers...LAWD!!!!! This is so much!!!
I'm a non-drinker who at the sound of Alabama Shakes gets pushed into another dimension and becomes in great need of a shot of tequila. This music cracks my soul open, exposes me and makes me want to just drown in it.
Same
Blhahahahah this song with a drink is i belive were heaven sits at
Brittany just pours her intense feelings out so smoothy. Her and her backup singers are so unique, a prime example of why representation matters!
That's how you know you can trust an artist writes/sings from the heart... I think she cries everytime she sings this song
Soul on ice 82 ... and she takes me with her every single time
Definitely
+Richard Carless Smoooth
She does cry. I saw them live two years ago and she said this was her favourite song and cried
“Loving so deeply...I feel it all through my past lives” sigh....true definition of a soulmate 😍
Old Soul. New Body. Renewed, yet, new.
Never out of style... Thank you.... For Forever.
This lady make you want to dance, laugh, and cry while shadowboxing high on your grandmas piano. I'm sure they'll get the recognition they deserve
well here in Canada, their songs are always on the radio :)
+Bailey Haddow Grammys
+Jelly Kid fuck the Grammys.
Simply makes you feel alive
This song makes me cry and gives me chills almost every time I hear it
Black isn't a racist term, unless you believe that "black" is a negative thing. Black is beautiful! Without the blackness of the galaxy how could we see the stars? Don't hate.....appreciate! Don't separate.......congregate! The world can be a wonderful place when one accepts people with all their differences. Racism comes from a place of raising oneself over another because of racial differences. Assuming rightful privilege because of ones racial background. When you hear the term "Black is beautiful" it's not that one is saying that "white" isn't. We say it's beautiful because we were told we are not. It's about uplifting not downgrading. This band has many beautiful souls that happen to be wrapped in multi-coloured skin. The covering doesn't matter, it's the beautiful soul and the wonderful gift they offer all of us through music
Well and beautifully said
Beautiful words
Is there a way to thumbs up this a million times?
I agree with everything you wrote but why even bring the subject . Music is the proof of life , the proof of the genius race of the human . Talking about this even in a such beautiful way , as you did , give life to the word "racism". Beautiful song thought .peace
My GOD I am blown away by this girl, this band, this sound! This TALENT!! (..standing ovation..weeping..applauding!)
+Janet Byrd I totally Agree
lol hear hear!
7yrs later and this is a hit to me !!!! 🎉
When you found a song and you listen to it over and over again.......
Ugh yes
Mahfoud Khoulani i am so guilty of that i have to put my headphones in so people want think i am weird.
can I just say.... the camera work and lighting in this room is B.E.A-Utiful!! Highlights a gorgeous band and stunning woman
If I could describe what love is, the nuances of an imperfect love, it would sound like this. It's why we risk it all!!!
So proud of this band. I bought their first album knowing then they were special. They're blossoming beautifully.
Lyrics
I’m in over my head, I don’t think of you
And bits and pieces, I think of you only like a miracle
Lovin' so deeply, I feel it through all my past lives
It feels good, I'm never saying goodbye
It feels good, I'm never saying goodbye
I'm in over my head, over my head
I'm in over my head, over my head
Silence, they explain it to me
There's no joy I can take with no one worth waiting
Here for now, but not for long
Whether my mind slipped away, explain that to me
I'm in over my head
Loving so deeply, I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
Loving so deeply, I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
Loving so deeply, I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
Loving so deeply, I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
Loving so deeply, I'm in over my head
Loving so deeply, I'm in over my head
beautiful
**Signs, they explain it to me.
There's no joy I can take
With knowing what's waiting..**
Farida Beee , thanks for sharing the lyrics ! "
* I think of you wholly (Holy) like a miracle
I've probably listened to this song 88 times this morning
That bass player has a swag you just can't buy.
It is so true. I grew up with a bass player who was so he was so focused on being virtuoso- and he WAS- Jaco pastorius didn't have a whole lot on him for real. But this guy's so special it's like, he can play just three or four notes and it'll just blow 16 bars of the fanciest most bombastic s*** away !! Magic is what you call that I believe ✌🏽🖤🙏🏼
I keep and keep coming back to this, It’s been years and I just keep coming. The band is tight, the backup singers and INSANE, the lyrics are a revelation, and she’s perfect.
Just saw her live last night. This woman is a musical genius and a phenomenal performer.
Emory Wilcoxen And backed by a pretty damn good band.
Indeed!
I just love this version such much better.
Passionate. Feel like I'm listening to a gospel especially with the background singers. Few songs in this era move me like this. Eyes always water a bit and my heart melts. Definitely get pulled into this one.
I thought I was the only one whose eyes watered
+Roy Reno You're not.
+Cherri Blu I literally burst into tears when the backup joined in. What a powerful song!!!
+Cherri Blu yeah to the gospel vibe...
Exactamente
“Loving so deeply...I feel it through all my past lives” that part is soooo spot on!!!
Ive listened to this song a few hundred times and I still get goose bumps. 💖
What happened in that room during this recording is nothing short of Catching Lightning in a bottle. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again........ the album version and this studio cut is absolute CHURCH
Oh my god this song is so beautiful..
Lord, this made my left eye cry. SANG!!!
My absolute favourite. The harmonies, the lyrics, the vocals. Pure magic. This is real art.
I love the whole recording, so fucking well done. A brilliant showing of Alabama Shakes' beautiful music. Also, the cinematography is really great, perfectly anticipates the next part of the song and enhances the experience. It's almost like an action film, shifting around Brittany's point of view to where they anticipate the song is next going to be. Whenever it turned to show the backup singers I got so hyped.
Man.. The bass player is my hero he don't give nothing away he cool as sh*t..
The whole band is so awesome, the background singers, the guys on the instruments, and of course bad ass Brittany!
a masterpiece.
It’s music like this that puts me in my feels and helps me process my mental health. I can’t explain it. Music makes sense to me and the way Alabama Shakes puts together a song is absolutely perfect and beautiful. In some of my deepest and darkest places, I found this song helpful to process and grieve through my depression. Y’all get it. And I will always love y’all for helping me get through the difficult times 🙏🏾💕
Man... this is a moment in history.
This song breaks my heart so perfectly.
Song giving me chills
yesss!!!!
Yesssss. Happening right now.
She is such a genius in how she bring that intensity to the songs emotion out.... that last half just gets me!!!
This line "There's no joy I can take with no one worth waiting". Lord! It has never been said better. The urgency for living, given our limited time ("Here for now, but not for long"). Thank you for bringing the urgency of life and of living to our attention, even though it seems like such a paradox. And by that I mean simply "duh!", of course life is meaningful and important and every second counts. It ought to be so obvious...
On repeat all the time! So amazing!
I second that
+Cherri Blu Thanks. :)
7yrs later, still on repeat!
This song is life!
Yes!! Can't get over this song. Love it
THIS IS SO INCREDIBLE. I JUST WANT HER TO BE HAPPY. SHE IS SO GREAT AND DESERVES SO MUCH JOY AND LOVE. THE BIRTH OF THIS SONG HAS ALREADY BROUGHT SO MUCH LIGHT AND GOODNESS INTO THE WORLD. I HOPE EVERY PERSON THAT CONTRIBUTED TO THIS SONG KNOWS THAT WHEN THEY GO TO SLEEP AT NIGHT.
THIS SONG HIT ME HARD!...WICKED!
VOCALS ON POINT!
Damn! Such a soulful song.
Beautiful!!! Love the passionate performance and the amazing vocals!
Really!! :)
almost as beautiful as you

I've listened to this song 239 times from 2/25/16 to 3/23/16. Says everything.
I can’t wait for a love so deep I feel it through all my past lives. 🥺
Since i've discovered it, not a day goes by without me coming here to listen to this precious song.
At a first listen of the album, I didn't really care for this song and a couple others but after watching this video, this has to be my favorite now. The raw emotion just blows me away.
my goosebumps got goosebumps
blackclothesblackcat me too
The transition at 2:36 restored my faith in humanity. Just amazing
I want to feel love like this.
it's painfully beautiful
no you dont, it hurts :")
Logan Franklin I felt it once and haven't loved like that since.
No you don’t! Lol
No. You don't. Trust me. 😔
I think the best part of this music video, is that everyone is so mesmerised by the music, that no one really notices the Prince earings the lead singer is wearing.
I just lost my father. These lyrics mean something so different to me now
This song hits me everytime. It describes all the feelings I feel when I think of love and the heartache that comes with it
Levels of "being cool":
1- this drummer
2- this bassist
3- ice
the album is so damn good. All the songs are flawless, so happy they were nominated for Album of the year at the grammys
"Loving so deeply I'm in over my head, loving so deeply I'm in over my head. . ." That lyric & melody are so sweet, especially with those harmonies & rounds. OMG'oodness, I hear sounds from heaven in that repeated phrase. Um!
She Is All Heart and True Soul! The Most Amazing God Gifted Woman that We've All Needed to Hear! Brittany Howard is Such A Blessing to Me!
DEEP feels straight to the gut!! Brittney and the backup singers were in sync it was just perfect and sublime!! ahh goodness!
this is one of the best songs ever written
Wow ... simply magnificent. This brings me to tears every time
3:19 damn, that guy hit the note so well
Please, I beg of you. Release these Live performance on CDs. These are just so life and fill with soul.
I own all of you album on CDs and Sound&Color on 24bit FLAC. These live performance, are on another level.
what wrong with the people ho dislike this masterpiece
I’ve had a child with someone and I’ve been in relationships but I have never received love the way I’ve given my all. When I listen to this I can feel it. I just hope someday a person will love me the way this song describes.
Her voice touched my soul. Now that I've heard her I can't get enough.
Wow. I got chills everywhere.
Never gets old. Their voices still give me the chills even though I've listened to this hundreds of times
brittany's voice is obviously amazing... but what about those awesome background singers? damn 🔥🔥🔥
Heard her interview today on Fresh Air. So down to earth! Best group to come along in a long time.
Every time I hear AS I am taken back to around 2014/15 when I saw them live. It was one of the best concerts I've ever been to and I have seen some great artist... Wonder, BBKing, RihRih, Mayer etc etc....AS is just wooooh💘💝
How can one live act sounds so compact !! :o
I'm not try for being racist.. But black people's voice always amaze me.. So powerful..
albert febry yep i feel that too
You should all ready know...We got soul
check out St Paul and the Broken Bones
+Mad Season Do you know what Irony is?
+Gabriele Marino Hm I don't think this was about irony. People have been using the "irony" idea to validate many kinds of hating or discriminatory positions. It is important to talk as many times as necessary about the meaning of racism instead of shuting down the discussion just by saying people can't read figures of speech, which I think sometimes can be great excuses for intolerant perspectives.
this women, and band, has restored my faith in the future of pop music,they are so good,it seems music, is the only place, where ,all people, of all races,color,creed etc.come together ,as one,there is hope ,for all of us,to forget about our differences,hatreds,predjudices,and all the BS, going on in the world today..........jus sayin
Chills on chills! Soothes this weary soul.
Thank you Alabama Shakes for giving the music world a good shot of energy!!
