At this point, I'm choosing to believe she doesn't know how to do any song the same way twice. Because I still try to sing along with the studio version in my head, but Ms Keen is always like "Nah!" 💀
Haha yes, she has trained insanely to be able to sing like this. I have seen a singer trying to cover it. She had to train on a treadmill just to cover this
@@novakgoatovic LOL go listen to original then it's that simple. She's letting herself improvise, which is one of the few ways an artiste can have fun. If you have a problem this performance you're just a hater, check yourself
I can respect your opnion but dont agree. I dont think this version would have got the radio play like the original. But I appreciate how she's always transforming her music which is how 5 star hotel became a favorite of mine. I think the live version she did on Steven Coberts show was the best version of Escapism I've seen thus far.
@@InsertBeautyHere me too. I might sound like a biotchh lol because I’m a girls girl always but part of me feels selfish and wants to keep her more secret. That’s just honest. But with her talent. She deserves SOOOO much more. It’s unbelievable…
You can tell when an artist writes their own music and has a hand in the production because being able to switch up a popular song every time is a SKILL!
I'm a massive Raye fan. She's only one of a handful of artists who's performances are just mesmerising to watch. Each performance is different - intentionally so. Her mastery of music is insane. Her passion for having real instruments and not recorded backing tracks. Real singers encouraged to perform to the very best that they can and the end results are like watching a full opera of emotions. All the while staying grounded to get London roots, singing in her London accent. Her sheer joy of performing is infectious and electric.
This performance is not wasted, from the dark and dramatic beginning, to the incorporation of the orchestra for each stanza, and without a doubt, her voice: RAYE is a Queen ❤
@@Boba-xc2pcbefore you start insulting others you should keep in mind that people talk differently on the internet, her comment was obviously her showing how in awe of her vocals she was
This is absolutely incredible. Often I find myself feeling sorry for the orchestra or band who has to go on stage with horrible singers. But this here makes me so happy because everybody can shine and together it creates something phenomenal that will be cherrished for decades to come.
Holy cow this version is unreal!!!! 😲 Raye you are a legend and I am so happy that you are getting noticed overseas. You deserve this. Looking fabulous and happy ❤️👑
Holy crap the breath control and jazzy vibes and energy is amazing. She truly deserves the success. A true talent and huge Amy Winehouse vibes while also making it her own. ❤️✨
Holy Cow that was Amazing!! She brought every bit of it. I’m so excited for her! That applause at the end and I can only imagine they were standing and then that big smile on her face! Shine on Sister!! ✨💙
I don't think it's a mystery how Raye is always backed by extremely talented musicians and singers. Imagine getting that call, "It's Raye, will you make some music with me? I'll send you some tracks..."
The skills of delivering the same song 2 different ways is the epitome of impeccable perfection from Raye!!! 🔥💯 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I've been a fan since the first album drop !!! I think you have one of the best creative minds in the whole industry !!! Keep it up !!! U got a fan for life ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Raye doing a different rendition in every single performance is absolutelly insane
and they are ALL amazing. she is so freaking good and one of the few outside of Prince who sounds better live
yes its insaneeeee
At this point, I'm choosing to believe she doesn't know how to do any song the same way twice. Because I still try to sing along with the studio version in my head, but Ms Keen is always like "Nah!" 💀
I love it I wish more artists did different renditions of a song still in their style.
It’s something Amy did as well. I could only imagine her and Amy making music together 🥹
Mark my words:
she is absolutely perfect for the next 007 theme song
she is even too good for Bond ;)
Omg yes please someone make this happen!!!!
Yes, yes, yes
Perfect!
She is and she's British too to top if off
The breath control is insane! 🤯
Right?!?!
Exactly 😅😍
RIGHT!!!
Haha yes, she has trained insanely to be able to sing like this. I have seen a singer trying to cover it. She had to train on a treadmill just to cover this
How she makes this song sound like a new song every time is phenomenal
nah it actually sucks. everybody WANTS ORIGINAL VERSION!!!!!!!!!!!! this sucks.
@@novakgoatovic LOL go listen to original then it's that simple. She's letting herself improvise, which is one of the few ways an artiste can have fun. If you have a problem this performance you're just a hater, check yourself
@@novakgoatovic Why play the original everytime? This is actually excellent from her, she very versatile and talented.
dude EVERY time it’s incredible
YESSSS everytime is different, and I love it!!!
Best rendition of Escapism. That choir and the story telling are just chef's kiss.

the worst u mean??!?!
@@novakgoatovicif this is the worst, just shows that she's amazing
its a different vibe it has that feel she is over what happened in the background. Musically? I agree it sounds great
You must not have listened to the Royal Albert Hall version yet!!!
seriously, she is a whole new genre by herself. Her live versions are insane and the band together? amazing work
New genre? Is that suppose to sound cool?!
Exactly this. She takes all genres, put them on steroids and lets music just flow through her without effort. Music is finally free
New genre? Isn’t this jazz?
This is brilliant. Such Amy winehouse vibes but also her own.
makes me so emotional she deserves the fame
@@InsertBeautyHere me too. I might sound like a biotchh lol because I’m a girls girl always but part of me feels selfish and wants to keep her more secret. That’s just honest.
But with her talent. She deserves SOOOO much more. It’s unbelievable…
@@NeptuneChildASMR She received more than most musicians. What more do you want? Just appreciate her and stop the virtue signaling.
@@lookilookibuthearingtooi Lmfao you need to chill.
@@lookilookibuthearingtooiL
the vocals, serving c4nt😩,the self censoring, the style, EVERYTHING
She's such an insane performerrrr
She made it sound like a 007 song, I love it
this is the way Jazz comes back - never the same thing twice - each time its so unique and real
Black Americans really created so much soul it’s ridiculous..
I don’t always watch the musical guest performances but Raye absolutely killed it.
Always watch the musical guests
You're missing out on the best part of the show
Someone who CAN ACTUALLY SIIIINNG. I love her. ❤️❤️
Exactly!
Rare on the mainstream now
Her voice literally brings tears to my eyes, she’s amazing
She really doesn't get enough credit. She's freaking awesome
She totally does in the UK. She is amazing!!!!
You can tell when an artist writes their own music and has a hand in the production because being able to switch up a popular song every time is a SKILL!
The amount of Bond energy that she is giving is just overwhelming ☺
Omg she is so iconic, she sounds different every performance. I'm shook.
currently diagnosed with chills
I'm always in awe of Rayes' voice and her presence every single time. Just stunning voice, stunning all around.

this is what we can call talent
This is the first time I’ve seen Raye wearing shoes for an entire performance 😝😂
This performance is not wasted, from the dark and dramatic beginning, to the incorporation of the orchestra for each stanza, and without a doubt, her voice: RAYE is a Queen ❤
My favorite part is the musicians in the background being super impressed by her INCREDIBLE talent
Thank goodness this is back on UA-cam. Was real sad when SNL removed it.
Do you know why?
@@spacebar9733licensing.
@@spacebar9733legal stuff
I was so sad when I couldn’t find it anywhere
@@spacebar9733probably gatekeeping her success.
Honestly , this year is a really good one for music
She is out of this world with every performance she does with this song and the thumbs up she gave to the band later that was so wholesome
Literally she sounds like she’s doing a diff song every time I see her perform it. Unreal talent and genius
My favorite live version of this song. Great voice and song.
Flawless execution. Loved how her and the band/ background singers were so in sync
The goosebumps are unreal
i love how she’s still promoting this single like they used to do back then.
Happy to be part of the journey of this song!
Me too fren |-/ ❤️
She makes me Smile! What a Voice!
This rendition was so amazing. The choir, the vocals, the scatting...so in love with Raye's performance style
Her ability to keep killing on any prestation is insane proud
We're so lucky to have a artist like this she's honestly so so good
3:20 girl, wtf are those vocals. I died
Let's see you try bookie 😊
Btw "wtf are those vocals" is a question which means it should end with a question mark. It's you're gonna be a hater don't be illiterate too.
@@Boba-xc2pc it was a compliment, shes amazing
@@Boba-xc2pcbefore you start insulting others you should keep in mind that people talk differently on the internet, her comment was obviously her showing how in awe of her vocals she was
@@Boba-xc2pc It ain't that deep bae
that was breathtaking. she had all of me the whole time
WHAT. A . PERFORMANCE.
I actually love the censoring it's so considered and creative
This is absolutely incredible. Often I find myself feeling sorry for the orchestra or band who has to go on stage with horrible singers. But this here makes me so happy because everybody can shine and together it creates something phenomenal that will be cherrished for decades to come.
I need this on Spotify immediately! It's so good
