    His voice is very therapeutic, it's almost as his singing is crying for you and cleansing you from all pain, sorrow and sadness. An artist with so much soul, it really is a pleasure to hear you sing, Thank you for that James Arthur.

      @@aznericxD Definitely not, Eminem wastes his talent on dissing people. And he sounds like a little angry child in a lot of his songs. I love Lose Yourself, all other songs of his aren't really worth it. I think the equivalent to James in rap is NF.

  • @podtrashnetwork
    @podtrashnetwork 9 років тому +520

    The way he rides along the melody is so perfect. He doesn't abuse his vibrato (even though it's extremely good). It comes in at the right times. It's all very tasteful and adds up to a performance I'd love to hear on a studio recording. Most artists try so hard to impress you with crazy vocal acrobats and the emotion is totally lost. James Arthur was a true artist that was too good for X Factor.

    • @justinchew1173
      @justinchew1173 9 років тому

      Pod trash Vibrato? What vibrato. He has none. He overpulls his chest voice and eventually in the long run, he's gonna lose his already limited belting range. The only thing that is really great about him is his falsetto. It might not be the prettiest sounding but it can really cut through and is powerfully piercing

    • @Dan-op8fc
      @Dan-op8fc 6 років тому +4

      This comment is so good. Accurate. There's a plan to JA's madness. He fuses skill with timing. There's intention behind almost everything, yet he does let the divine being flow through him that somehow makes him look infallible. The sections where improvs are made, are planned, the improvs themselves is really technique at the top of its mastery. If this makes sense. Love JA. can't appreciate him enough. One of the best finds in the last 6 months, in terms of music, meaningful popular personalities, some heightened awareness and spiritual wisdom...the world is not lost. Thank you for the inspiration JA. Glad other people see it too. Awesome.

      He's gonna be OK. Right now making his second album (Third actually, With his rap album All the world's a stage), and James BREATHS Music. It's his all, his life, his breath, his passion, and now, thankfully, his Income. Look at his videos of him singing at the age of 16, 18, 20 etc. You'll understand. That's how he Express himself, and I don't think he will ever stop writing Music. Hoping for many, many years of albums and tours in the future. Check his song "Confessions", "I unproudly present", "hold on 2.0" and "You can't see me" "I need a friend"- you'll see :) Loved Your comment :)

    • @jamesarthurelite2321
      @jamesarthurelite2321 6 років тому +7

      It was like putting one of the greatest of all time on a talent show. Shame he lived in teeside, redcar in the middle of nowhere and the fact he had a lot of mental health issues that held him back from making it. I love the fact he writes music for him

    • @jamesarthurelite2321
      @jamesarthurelite2321 6 років тому +1

      Reminds me of Eminem. Redcar is like the detroit of England and they've both battled with prescription drugs ands addiction. Should be EMinem x James Arthur not fucking Ed Sheeran and Eminem. He needs to find out about James Sharpish

    • @jamesarthurelite2321

    • @Jennah0908
      @Jennah0908 6 років тому +2

      Mark Smith yeah, of course the show has done a lot for him and as a viewer, I am glad he auditioned but there are people who don’t give him a chance just because he’s from The X Factor which is really annoying.
      The struggles he went through before helped him to write such raw and honest music. You are so right that Eminem should collaborate with James. He was already an artist, ready to record his stuff before entering the show, it’s stupid how he had to prove it by singing covers and hoping that the public keep him in..(it’s clear a lot of viewers don’t vote based on talent) but without any financial backing or links in the music industry, that’s the route he has to take to get noticed.

    • @Jennah0908
      @Jennah0908 6 років тому +1

      I have listen to around 10 of his songs now and enjoyed most of then whether he rapped or not, He really tells a story with his songs (damn sounding gay here :) ), This is were the trolls put there 2 cents in.

    I always get so tickled watching them do the group singing with "The Fray". It's like two tiny cars driving down the highway, and then a huge 18-wheeler driving in between them. If I were those two other dudes, I would have just said "nope" after he sang his part and called it a day.

    Talk about coming from humble beginnings to owning the moment just by being yourself & doing what you love in life. I am pushing 60 & think that James Arthur is the most inspiring artist I have ever heard. I have posted this compilation with a challenge for you all to take the time to view it & i will be surprised if you hear anything from him that does not make you sit up & applaud his ability to draw you in & feel like you have just been to the best concert ever. In the last 2 years I have watched this compilation a number of times in particular when I feel i need a hit of something special & inspiring. His music since then largely appeals to the young so i hope at some point, sooner other than later, he will release an album of rehashed old favorites with the James Arthur stamp on them & I would be gobsmacked if it did not top the charts. Other artists do this towards the end of their careers but James Arthur will fill a gap out there by doing it now simply because he can take just about any style out there, make it his own and, because of his own humble beginnings, perform from the heart & draw anyone into the story. If music were a language he would be considered bilingual.

      Well communicate with him, James Arthur, and tell him to make such an album of oldies. I'd like to see Amelia Lily do the same thing.
      I think this is therapy for him, for his pain. Cheaper than going to a shrink. Humble beginnings alright. I didn't catch what he was doing for work, was he unemployed? But coming from a broken home, and living in a small room.

    • @parmw
      @parmw 9 років тому

      Well said, it's not just the younger audience that feels his music. I'm totally in love with his style, his abilities and just his genuine, authentic personality he has. I love it and it's hit me hard and it takes a lot for an artist to inspire me these days! I hope he doesn't allow the negative stupidity of others ruin his career. Much love from Canada James!

I am no youngster but I absolutely adore this guy. He had a harsh start to his post XFactor career but as Nicole Scherzinger said "Cream always rises to the top" and let's face it, James Arthur is the creme de la creme :) :)

    This may sound strange, but James Arthur reminds me of Elvis Presley in a way, so different, very individual style, a raw emotional quality. There's something better here with James, I think. He's real, he's going to be himself. You could see the beauty of James Arthur even in his first audition. I just love him.
