    It’s actually insane that an artist like this was being suppressed by a major label for so long!!. If she didn’t leave them, we would never been able to hear her like this!!

    the actual sadness of the lyrics shins through in this stripped version. a brilliant songwriter and an even more talented singer.

    It feels like this is the original version, chorus makes so much sense now. She is a gem definitely, such an amazing artist.

    Admirable and impressive how she manages to capture the emotion in every single one of these performances. Whether it's the first or thousandth time she performs this song. You're a true artist, massive respect!

    Omg how intense and unique is this? Love that version. She doesn’t need a band. She IS the band

    She's one of those rare impressive artists that get recognition as they deserves like Amy Winehouse, Lady Gaga, Adele, Alicia Keys,...
    She got the creativity, the stage presence and the voice.

    Came in late to listen on the radio this morning in the car.... thought it was a recording until the end, when I realised it was LIVE. I was like WTF.... that was LIVE?? WOW!
    Never heard of Raye before.... she has two new fans.... what a voice! Great song!
    So then was even a bigger bonus that she is a Nina Simone fan.... would love to hear her do 'Strange Fruit'. Her cover of 'I Feel Good' was amazing. Not many could do it justice... she did.

    I flew from Bunbury to Sydney to see her at the Enmore. Best decision I ever made. She is truly wonderful and when she’s filling out stadiums I can say I saw her back in the day in front of a few hundred people. She is a truly amazing talent.

  • @liviocharach3341

    She is definitely the contemporary version of Nina Simone. Wonderful voice timbre, interpretation and presence.

    This was my introduction to RAYE, WOW. I've had goosebumps all morning checking out her BBC/NPR stuff. Feeling Good was amazing. I assume Brisbane show has happened because it wasn't mentioned. She gave a great Did You Know this morning about the colour green....

    LYRICS:
    Sleazin' and teasin', I'm sittin' on him
    All of my diamonds are drippin' on him
    I met him at the bar, it was 12 or somethin'
    I ordered two more wines, 'cause tonight, I want him
    A little context if you care to listen
    I find myself in a shit position
    The man that I love sat me down last night
    And he told me that it's over, dumb decision
    And I don't wanna feel how my heart is rippin'
    In fact, I don't wanna feel, so I stick to sippin'
    And I'm out on the town with a simple mission
    In my little black dress, and this shit is sittin'
    Just a heart broke bitch, high heels, six inch
    In the back of the nightclub, sippin' champagne
    I don't trust any of these bitches I'm with
    In the back of the taxi, sniffin' cocaine
    Drunk calls, drunk texts, drunk tears, drunk sex
    I was lookin' for a man who was on the same page
    Now it's back to the intro, back to the bar
    To the Bentley, to the hotel, to my old ways
    'Cause I don't wanna feel how I did last night
    I don't wanna feel how I did last night
    Doctor, doctor, anything, please
    Doctor, doctor, have mercy on me, take this pain away
    You're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel
    Toke this joint how I'm blowin' this steam
    Back to my ways like 2019
    Not 24 hours since my ex did dead it
    I got a new man on me, it's about to get sweaty
    Last night really was the cherry on the cake
    Been some dark days lately and I'm finding it crippling
    Excuse my state, I'm as high as your hopes
    That you'll make it to my bed, get me hot and sizzling
    If I take a step back to see the glass half full
    At least it's the Prada two-piece that I'm trippin' in
    And I'm already actin' like a dick, know what I mean?
    So you might as well stick it in
    Just a heart broke bitch, high heels, six inch
    In the back of the nightclub, sippin' champagne
    I don't trust any of these bitches I'm with
    In the back of the taxi, sniffin' cocaine
    Drunk calls, drunk texts, drunk tears, drunk sex
    I was lookin' for a man who was on the same page
    Now it's back to the intro, back to the bar
    To the Bentley, to the hotel, to my old ways
    'Cause I don't wanna feel how I did last night
    I don't wanna feel how I did last night
    Doctor, doctor, anything, please
    Doctor, doctor, have mercy on me, take this pain away
    You're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel, mm (what?)
    'Cause I don't wanna feel like I felt last night
    I don't wanna feel like I felt last night
    Be at peace with the things you can't change (last night)
    I'll be naked when I leave and I was naked when I came, yeah
    Out of reach, out of touch, too numb, I don't feel no way
    Toast up, so what? Street small, but it go both ways
    So you'll run, yeah, but you'll never escape
    Sunset in the maze (you're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel)
    I don't wanna feel how I did last night
    I don't wanna feel how I did last night, oh
    Doctor, doctor, anything, please
    Doctor, doctor, have mercy on me
    You're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel
    I don't wanna feel how I did last night
    I don't wanna feel how I did last night
    I don't wanna feel how I did last night
    Mm, lipstick smudged like modern art
    I don't know where the fuck I am or who's drivin' the fuckin' car
    Speedin' down the highway, sippin'
    Mixin' pills with the liquor 'cah fuck these feelings
    I left everyone I love on read (uh-huh)
    Spilling secrets to the stranger in my bed (uh-huh)
    I remember nothing, so there's nothing to regret (uh-huh)
    Other than this 4-4 kick drum poundin' in my head
