Been watching this since I was 14. I'm now 25. And my 3yo son now listens to sunny days on repeat. He's been a fan since he was very little. Only a little help from me. The rest is all you, Allen. Ever since he was 2 he would belt sunny days. It's the sweetest thing.
More than 5 years since I didn't listen to this song, I guess it was a dark period as I only listen to Allen Stone when I'm in a good place. Just pure enjoyment
Made me cry as I rapidly approach my 49th birthday January 13th. "don't let time slip away, Time ain't free." I love a song that can reach into my gut and tear at my soul.
Ha! Now I'm nearly 50! I love all the comments from before. I work so HARD in my job (as a mail carrier) and feel like life is just slipping away....I'm so vibrant on the inside and have no place to shine. And yep, I'm crying again! (dang it!) At least I can reach out here! :)
Idk what to be more impressed by .... The talent of these two or the drummers ability to transform from Willem Defoe to James Franco in between beats!!!
I'm not trying to offend lol, but If you heard him on the radio you would never know he was White. So much soul in that voice it's amazing. They play his song Upside in my job at American Eagle allllll the time.
My son first played Allen Stone for me and asked me what I thought he looked like just based on his voice. I was 100% positive that he wasn’t white!! My son cracked up. True soul has no color
The combination of purity & genuine skill is rare these days... though shall not kill.... There's no obedience displayed here... Beautiful song... I salute you ......
both of them have bags of soul to deliver. It is very unique for me: an artist I come across where everything I get to hear from amazes me. From solo stuff with his guitar to LIVE shows with the full band. And it' s not only down to his voice. It is the voice combined with songwirting plus band chemistry.
Heyo! My new album 'Building Balance' is finally hitting the streets! Check out my latest single “Sunny Days,” karaoke tour, and more at www.Allenstone.com
America has such talented people like Allen Stone and yet all that reaches Europe's listeners are stuff like Miley and other garbage musicians/singers, Promote such guys please ! its pure irony that this song doesn't have millions of views despite the name :P keep up the great work Allen and keep inspiring us , greeting from Greece
My husband and I saw you and Madison, WI last night at The Sylvee, and I’m going down memory lane watching all your old videos over again. Wow wow wow. No wonder I got hooked from the very first. There should be an Allen Stone addiction support group somewhere. Haha.
So I'll usually bring this song up on here and minimize the window so that I can listen while I'm at work (waiting til I can buy it on Amazon); I actually got to watch the video just now and I noticed that Magnus is using a suitcase for the bass! AWESOME lol.
I've listened to this song in the background for weeks now. This is the first I've actually watched the video and I've got a new appreciation for it just by seeing how much Allen and his accompanist is enjoying playing this brilliant song.
I love when indie white guys have blues/jazz influences. makes for a great sound. ie: James Bay, John Mayer, Matt Corby, Hozier, etc... (don't take this comment the wrong way, It's all in good fun)
Love the wordless connection between you guys. I love those moments when playing music with people. Smooth as butta....smooth as butta. My favorite song of yours.
I'm here because I just listened to an interview of John Waugh. He said you were exceptional. If the WAUGHMASTER says your great then I'm here! This was great! STAGE LEFT PODCAST
This song and "6 Years", by Tingsek both have a D'Angelo vibe, but D'Angelo got his vibe from old school soul, just as these guys do. Old school soul freaks LOVE them for that!
Besides the awesome song and vocals, this is a lesson on how to keep a groove on drums. See? He didn't even touched that hi hat til mid-way into the song, and the snare released fully at two-thirds, building tension up, then back to over-minimalism. THIS is dynamic, THIS is restraint, musicianship, GROOVE. Listen y'all young folks playin the drums! I know what I'm talking bout.
Perfect.. It encompasses everything from the smooth lyrical abilities of Donny Hathaway, to the tempo of Erykah Badu. It's like a timeline of soul in 5 short minutes. Amazing Allen.... great colab w/Tingsek always a great tandem
I have recently been introduced to you and I never regret the day I heard your name. Love the message your giving and the soul your giving to the world.
+Karen Starks OH my GOD ! So good... and the anticipation of the beat....and then soulful on top of that...I almost cant stand it...ready to jump out of my skin...I scrunch up my face trying to keep it all in. Hahahahahahah!!!
This track is so amazing for so many reasons! Allen with Magnus Tingsek playing and co-producing/engineering this track is such ear candy! I love them both stylistically and together just amazing! If any of you out there don't know Tingsek's music check it out :)
Absolutely in love with your music, bro! Blessings of continued success on your journey of making great stories accompanied with instrumentation!! Makes my heart smile to listen to you!

Been watching this since I was 14. I'm now 25. And my 3yo son now listens to sunny days on repeat. He's been a fan since he was very little. Only a little help from me. The rest is all you, Allen. Ever since he was 2 he would belt sunny days. It's the sweetest thing.
Love watching people enjoy the music they're making.
These two look like they're having a blast
Who is still listening to this in 2019? Allen Stone will remain timeless.
2021 now lol
December 2022!
This year at the worlds singing olympics, Allen won GOLD💪💪💛👑
In this video..I sit here and watch two people...doing something they love and putting their hearts into the music..just sayin
I can't believe that it took me seeing you and Teddy singing Sara Smiles, for me to know that you even existed. You sir are amazing. Subscribed.
More than 5 years since I didn't listen to this song, I guess it was a dark period as I only listen to Allen Stone when I'm in a good place. Just pure enjoyment
Made me cry as I rapidly approach my 49th birthday January 13th. "don't let time slip away, Time ain't free." I love a song that can reach into my gut and tear at my soul.
***** agreed! Happy Birthday Angela. Take a breath and enjoy it. :)
Ha! Now I'm nearly 50! I love all the comments from before. I work so HARD in my job (as a mail carrier) and feel like life is just slipping away....I'm so vibrant on the inside and have no place to shine. And yep, I'm crying again! (dang it!) At least I can reach out here! :)
Please don't cry Angela! Trust me it will be alright. I think you need a little vacation somewhere nice. May be some sun, sand and beach? Hugs :)
Aw, thank you! It's nice to hear positive feedback. Sometimes that's all I need to feel better. And I do! :D
Great!!!! Hugs! :D
Still a bop in 2019 and I love this version more than the studio version. So raw and the slower tempo is just uggggh STANK FACE
Brianna Jenkins way more!
Idk what to be more impressed by .... The talent of these two or the drummers ability to transform from Willem Defoe to James Franco in between beats!!!
Chaly2na hahaha
1:28 "It's hard to lose fuckery if you don't give it." :)
LOOL! I missed that one
FruityMelody ditto! Thanks for pointing it out :)
True shit :D
+ophidianima YASSSSSSS!!!!
homeboy is hurting em with the suitcase. good stuff.
I LOVE THEIR CONNECTION AT 2:30 UGH
The D'Angelo is strong with this one. Killer.
I'm not trying to offend lol, but If you heard him on the radio you would never know he was White. So much soul in that voice it's amazing. They play his song Upside in my job at American Eagle allllll the time.
My son first played Allen Stone for me and asked me what I thought he looked like just based on his voice. I was 100% positive that he wasn’t white!! My son cracked up. True soul has no color
His key changes are so interesting. I love it.
i love how they enjoyed what they were doing.
I can't get enough of this man.
Yaaassss! I agree Elisabeth love his instruments totally!!!
Same
I would marry this man on the spot.
+Jhully Amilly Marangoni me too!
Nancy Hernández López his voice is way too hot.
I'm a straight guy and I would too...
hahahaah I think so. Well, hope one day he comes to Chile and sings close to me.
+Nancy Hernández López I was just in Santiago Chile last week. I was playing his songs in my workshop...
I don't think it's possible to NOT like his music. So genuine.
Your voices blend so well together! So beautiful!!! wow!!!
That was my thought. I will be seeing Allen as well as Train and The Goo Goo Dolls this summer. Gonna be a fun night.
The combination of purity & genuine skill is rare these days...
though shall not kill.... There's no obedience displayed here...
Beautiful song...
I salute you ......
Genuine, soulful, and "eargasm"...those are the words that come to mind when listening to your music. Can't wait for the album!
I concur
Nailed it.
both of them have bags of soul to deliver. It is very unique for me: an artist I come across where everything I get to hear from amazes me. From solo stuff with his guitar to LIVE shows with the full band. And it' s not only down to his voice. It is the voice combined with songwirting plus band chemistry.

this is music. this is talent.
Dont care what he looks like! listening to him playing is simply magic !!!!!
this song is going to go off with a whole band! cant wait for the album
the instrumentals are so minimal and the vocals are so tight with each other. SO GOOD!
1:11 is my favorite part of the entire song. Just that one snippet.
America has such talented people like Allen Stone and yet all that reaches Europe's listeners are stuff like Miley and other garbage musicians/singers, Promote such guys please ! its pure irony that this song doesn't have millions of views despite the name :P keep up the great work Allen and keep inspiring us , greeting from Greece
i've never gotten so passionate about an artist. getting to watch you on your path is a joy. I wish you all the success in the world.
last one, I swear. It's crazy how this Swedish dude playing drums does something that is a lost art, he's letting the drums breath like R&B should.
My husband and I saw you and Madison, WI last night at The Sylvee, and I’m going down memory lane watching all your old videos over again. Wow wow wow. No wonder I got hooked from the very first. There should be an Allen Stone addiction support group somewhere. Haha.
This is my all-time jam to get my positive groove back.
So I'll usually bring this song up on here and minimize the window so that I can listen while I'm at work (waiting til I can buy it on Amazon); I actually got to watch the video just now and I noticed that Magnus is using a suitcase for the bass! AWESOME lol.

(don't take this comment the wrong way, It's all in good fun)
DirtyDirtyNick yeeeesss!!
There is only one way to get this comment right, and this is : mixed influences make awesome music. That's it. ;)
I thought your name was dirty dick Nick for a second
You got good taste.
DirtyDirtyNick check out Chet Faker then
The Protein Chef said it best. I love Allen Stone's music.
this guy makes me apreciate music again. I like his smooth jazzy sound. it just works.
Find you a girl that looks at you like Allen Stone does his drummer 😂. That was so legit. Y'all are on point.
Just such a good goddamn song, just keep coming back Well done.
Love the wordless connection between you guys. I love those moments when playing music with people. Smooth as butta....smooth as butta. My favorite song of yours.
That "Kickbriefcase" is Bumpin'!
I needed this. I didn't think kids were into this music now.
Allen ditched his glasses and brought on a gotee and now he's "hippie hot"!!! GO ALLEN!!!
hippie hot!!! yes, lol!! love this man
I'm here because I just listened to an interview of John Waugh. He said you were exceptional. If the WAUGHMASTER says your great then I'm here! This was great! STAGE LEFT PODCAST

Awesome that Allen and Tingsek collaborated. Big fan of both! :)
I should say Allen and Magnus lol, still you get the gist. Both great artists!
I don't even know where to begin...shall I say a white D'angelo?! Love it!!!!!!

The artist drumming's name is Tingsek ,check out his music (old and new) it's dooooooopeeeeee
Perfect.. It encompasses everything from the smooth lyrical abilities of Donny Hathaway, to the tempo of Erykah Badu. It's like a timeline of soul in 5 short minutes. Amazing Allen.... great colab w/Tingsek always a great tandem
6 years on and I’m still listening😍
wait a minute is drummer using a suitcase as a bass drum? God I LOVE Allen more and MORE!
Allen, you should put this stripped down version on the new album as a bonus track. It's so, so good.
Wonderful song & lyrics. Just tune/dampen that snare drum! I saw Allen Stone on a boat in Paris, France. I'm hooked.
the drummer makes me happy :) great song, I love Allen Stone
Sounds great! When Allen sings his verses it reminds me of D'Angelo's "How Does it Feel" based on the chords & his style of singing.
I have recently been introduced to you and I never regret the day I heard your name. Love the message your giving and the soul your giving to the world.
Tingsek and Allen Stone!! 2 Amazing artists
BWOY!!! You're making me do my screw face just listening to you... MAN oh MAN!!! So good!
+Karen Starks OH my GOD ! So good... and the anticipation of the beat....and then soulful on top of that...I almost cant stand it...ready to jump out of my skin...I scrunch up my face trying to keep it all in. Hahahahahahah!!!
Valeria Fugate bahaha @ screw face! I call it my "soul stanky face" 😅
I'm so excited! I'm just getting even more amped for the album. Allen kills it every time.
This song is song goddamn good and underrated.... WTF. SOOOOOO GOOOOOD.
"Time ain't free...... ".... Wow...... so true.... I love that line so much.
Your music is pure and unfiltered. And thats why I love listening to it. Can't wait for the new album. I hope God blesses you more.
This track is so amazing for so many reasons! Allen with Magnus Tingsek playing and co-producing/engineering this track is such ear candy! I love them both stylistically and together just amazing! If any of you out there don't know Tingsek's music check it out :)
ive seen this about a million times and only noticed now how the bass drum is a suitcase
This song is hits the soul so deep. Really appreciate it!
Toe-curling good performance, song, voice.
The drummer's face at 1:48 is awesome.
Absolutely in love with your music, bro! Blessings of continued success on your journey of making great stories accompanied with instrumentation!! Makes my heart smile to listen to you!
Liberty Lake nearly out my back window...I recognize it in the opening of this video. Love this stripped bare version.
I'm so hooked after just being introduced to him not even 30 mins ago..where have I been? lol
I love it! They have soul power for real! Great herbal meditation music
Instant classic!
