Every time I think I've found my favorite Chris Stapleton song... I hear the next one. 😂
Exactly!
That is so true!
Anyone who has been through a divorce or has experienced a dead-end relationship can really relate to this song. Chris expresses the emotional state of being past crying and past caring so beautifully in this song. My heart goes out to you, if you too know exactly how this feels. Chris's music pierces right through to the heart.
Almost 16 years with a successful narcissist. I'm a survivor. I love Chris's music, it makes life better.
20 years I’ve had enough my brain hurts more than my heart at this point
After being in a unhealthy 30 year marriage . I filed for living a new healthy life .
I can feel every word
Amazing still
❤❤❤❤❤❤
He sings with his whole body. This is music folks. It reaches across races, religions, ethnic backgrounds and touches the heart. Love it.
Couldn't agree more, buddy.
He sings from the Soul and Heart!
Music bridges all gaps
Listening from Uruguay! I don't know if it's folks or is it him...but I love his music (💛🧡
YES
If your listening to this. Your witnessing the best male vocalist of our generation. Well done
Without question. To be honest I think he’s the best period. His performances are just on a different level.
Straight facts
i almost wanna say chris cornell incarnate
I couldnt agree more
Best YT 👌 😂
I don't care what kind of music you like or dislike. If this guys voice and lyrics don't strike a nerve - you don't have any. Incredible.
agreed.... i dont like country but i heard this at a bar and wow... just wow
When you hear someone who truly has a voice, have to be touched. Can't tell me you didn't feel this deep inside.
If you don't feel anything listening to this then you need to go and find your soul.
,wt so why do
I am metal guy, I agree.
Tyler Perry's "Divorce in the Black," brought me here.
Today was my first time hearing this, as I am not a country music fan...until now!
All I can say is WOW!
Same
SAME!!!! I like Chris Stapleton, but I heard this from the movie, and I HAD to really listen to it again
My thoughts as well
Dude it’s crazy how it’s sounds exactly like the recording and most live songs you can hear the difference so amazing
I literally was thinking that dude
Saw him live. I said the same thing. The only guy i've seen, ever to do that. Hes just real. Great musician
@@ajsbrushworksllc8348 You should check out Dallas Green (City & Colour). His live performances are often greater than the recording
@@deejay.s i've heard of him, never been able to catch a live show. But i'll keep an eye out! 👍
that because they record the old way : live and raw, all musicians at once.
Mr Stapleton helped me fall back in love with my wife, I've always loved my wife but his musical inspiration guided me back to being "IN" love with her, to truly appreciate her and our life together ... Thank You Chris Stapleton!
That’s so beautiful
i swear he's hiding an amp under that beard. so powerful.
Brett Wolff OMFG I can not stop laughing!!! 10/10
Brett Wolff Effortless as well.
letfreedomring43 yeah that's what is so intriguing to me too. There is so little effort to hit those notes, and carry the bravado, hands down one of the most unique and talented vocalists to ever step onto a stage.
The beard is the amp.
well Chuck Norris is hiding another fist under his beard so its possible...:)
Was doing chores with my earbuds in and put this song on to listen to it for the first time. After the first two lines, I literally stopped in my tracks and tears began to flow. My God, this man writes songs that touch a person's soul!!
His voice hits just right on every pitch. Impeccable.
I can honestly say this is the most heartbreaking song I’ve ever heard. Unrequited love and the most articulate description of ‘Its better to be alone than being with someone who makes you feel alone..’
Doesn’t make it hurt any less..
Chris Stapleton with Chris Cornell would've been an amazing collaboration
Bryan Contreras dude sounds like cornell in the chorus. Pretty eerie lol
man thats an intersting thought. Could def hear it working. Damn
Man I’ve thought this for the longest time! To bad unfortunately Cornell isn’t with us anymore :( if you haven’t yet you should check out chris Stapleton’s cover of Chris Cornell’s “the keeper” at the Cornell tribute show
Bryan Contreras Oh man wish I had thought of that first. My two favorite singers...no joke.
Not a stage big enough. Theyd blow every amp or speaker they plugged in.
Edit: I dont mean this in a bad way. We just haven't found the technology to harness such great power. Im sure Chris and Layne are working it out with who ever over sees that department.
Dude has more talent in a strand of beard hair than 99% of what the Nashville spin machine is pumping out to the mellinials.
papa skins agreed
Damn Straight you hit the nail on the head brother man.
Wow, that is putting it WAAAAAYYYYYYY too nicely, it's more like, more talent in HALF OF A STRAND than what 99% of the entire music industry spin machine is popping out.
papa skins agreed!!He wrote Drink a Beer that Luke Bryan sings
millenial right here who knows good music
Out of all his fabulous songs, this is the one for me. I find the words painful and real. Just stunning.
And most of us been here.
My favorite too.
Mine too
He has to be one of the only artist that sounds better live. Than recorded.. get goose bumps when I listen to his music
"i used cry and stay up nights and wonder what went wrong"
"its been hard and hearts can only do that so long".. ugh i feel every word
Ditto
Sums it up pretty well for me too...
Shit....... i tried to fix it too....
Went thru the same thing. It finally ended three years ago. Much healthier because of it.
... hard and hearts ...
*Hardened hearts*
See what he did there?
This is beautiful brilliant
His voice touches every nerve in me....in the best way! 😍
Melissa Rogers Goshdam, he can sing!!!! This song is awesome!!!!!! What he can do with a guitar and his voice is just phenomenomenomenal!!!!
Cummins Real power I totally agree! 😊
Melissa Rogers Ty. And yes I can spell phenomenal, I just had to add "a touch more butter to my bread". Lol!!!!! His voice is as smooth as Tennessee Whiskey. Pardon the pun. Lol
Cummins Real power lol I understood what you were doing with the spelling. 😊
Melissa Rogers From the pic of you, I thought you would, but there's always some simpletons or trolls trying to make a mook point. Thank you. 👍🤠
I wasnt even sad but I have an actual ache in my heart after listening to this.
There has never been an artist that makes me as emotional as Chris. Something, some how, just breaks that barrier between feeling emotional and showing emotion. I've cried more tears to his music than I could ever explain by words. Sort of a blessing and a curse. I love his music, his voice, his words... but be damned if I can't just hold back the tears.
Its live in words, love it. Americana would be the class I would put it in.
I feel the same. Touches my soul
Chris Klafford is a Scandinavian Chris Stapelton. Check him out mate. Saw Chris live several years ago, it was my first exposure to him and it was incredible
Bon Iver
I will give you props sir for being honest about crying. That takes courage and you are a strong man for admitting that, you give me hope that I will find a good man! Thank you!
Chris has a hurt in his voice that just melts your heart I think he's so refreshing to the music industry
and how
Beverly Elaine Mejia it has needed someone so pure true and raw to the bone for a long time. That’s just God given blessings, you’re only born with that kind of talent, you can’t be taught that
That is the Blues! It's that ache in the voice with that twang of the guitar. Chris is a mesh of genres that puts him in his own League.
Yes he does...it speaks to me
Never been into country music but this guy is truly magnificent 😎💙🏴🇬🇧🇺🇸
Told my brother Chris was best country voice to come around in 30 years. He said hes not much into Country. I no longer talk to my brother.
Chris would say you should talk to your brother. This shit breaks genres down to pure soul
Lol 😂
Such a relief to have someone who knows how to sing in country music again!! Wow! If you can’t feel his emotion and passion from his singing, check your pulse! ❤️😭❤️
What you’re hearing that’s the pain and emotion isn’t Country. That’s the Blues that he infuses into Country Music.
Amazing ❤❤❤❤❤
Boy this song speaks to my soul...one of my favorite artist of all time!!!!
I am from Europe and not really a fan of country music at all with the exception of a country ballad here and there. But this guy... this guy has one of the best voices I have ever heard. The faultless power of his voice from low to high with a chilling effect during the chorus. Simply incredible.
He kills it. Love your post
Same here 😄

Chris is the most complete well rounded talent in any genre of music. Amazing songwriter, exceptional musician, and unbelievable vocalist. He sounds just as good live as his studio recordings. It has to seem unfair to many artist that the good Lord blessed him with such outstanding musical genius. I have been a huge fan since his Steeldriver then Jompson Brothers days and he continues to get better with every project. And I'll be a faithful fan for the rest of my days.
Michael West this song wasn't n original tho
LeKa C-Lo----While Lee Ann Womack covered this song years ago since it was written by Chris Stapleton this is the original version. Lee Ann's was the cover version (even though this wasn't released yet). If that makes sense? Whenever songwriters release their original material (even after the release of another artist covering it) you are getting the original and relegating the earlier release to a cover (at least in my mind)
LeKa C-LO Lee Ann Womack did cut it a few years ago but Chris is the original writer of the song. On his new album he wrote or co-wrote all but 1 song, Last Thing I Needed, First Thing This Morning, originally cut by Willie Nelson.
THE KING JESUS CHRIST IS COMING Get out of here with that shit. This is a music video. People come here to enjoy some great music not see your ignorant political and religious views. Calling Obama a cloned Anti-Christ just shows you need to be in a special hospital where you can get help. Take your ramblings to the dark and ignorant corners of TH-cam and the internet where they belong.
The King Why must people like you exist? Why do you act that way?
This man right here is right up there with the greats, Kris Kristofferson, Merle, Willie, George Jones. So much talent and emotion.
He’s not only one of the greatest singers in the world but he’s also a stellar guitar player as well. Not one mistake. Sounded perfect. Hard to beat right there.
Dont forget...hes a amazing songwriter too 😊
I agree!
His voice with his guitar hits deep. Perfect is a hard word to use for music. This is perfect.
i love this guy. Im not even a big country music fan but this guy is absolutely incredible. One of my favorite artists!
Same, man. Dude's got soul/blues to him!
My same words. Chris transcends genres. #soul
Same I'm mostly a hip hop head but I love this guy!
It's amazing how I can't even really tell a difference between his live performances and studio recordings.
I read somewhere he literally records a lot of the songs in one take live with his band.
Zachary Fitzgerald only thing differently is you can here the fret board noise from his guitar
Totally agree
That's real talent.
His voice is just so pure 😭❤️
"You can't hate and you can't hurt when you don't feel at all."
:'( Yeah. That's how it goes.
What a gift he has . Chris Stapleton can sing anything beautifully ✍🏼🎸🎤⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
I'm already waiting for "From A Room Volume 2"! Bring it Chris.
find a very lit portal.
Wouldn't that be dope if we could open portals to other dimensions? Of course, it is.
lol... me too.. can't wait ti hear it.... Love him..
marco très bon
Me too!!!
This is essentially perfect
Ahuh.real music is alive
born in 1972 never have i heard a talent that just keeps me paralyzed and speechless until this man
'72 here as well, bro. I turn 48 tomorrow. Where'd the time go??
'76. Same.
It is so refreshing to watch a performance like this. Just a guy with a guitar and impecable voice. No teeny bopper bullshit.
I read an article about this song and the author had written that when the song is over you need to remind yourself to start breathing again. That is the best description to all his songs really!
Wow..
He wrote it, been with his wife organ for years
Elin Engström .....Exactly!
Wes Selvidge she was saying the author of the article she read about his music said those things.. not that someone else wrote the song
@@wesselvidge5070 Kendall marvel wrote the song
Another good old Kentucky boy tearin it up
We pass in the hall
On our way to separate rooms
The only time we ever talk
Is when the monthly bills are due
We go to work, we go to church
We fake the perfect life
I'm past the point of give-a-damn
And all my tears are cried
We can just go on like this
Say the word, we'll call it quits
Baby, you can go or you can stay
But I won't love you either way
It's been so long since I've felt
Anything inside these walls
You can't hate and you can't hurt
When you don't feel at all
I used to cry and stay up nights
And wonder what went wrong
And it's been hard
But hearts can only do that for so long
We can just go on like this
Say the word, we'll call it quits
Baby, you can go or you can stay
But I won't love you either way
We can just go on like this
Say the word, we'll call it quits
Baby, you can go or you can stay
But I won't love you either way

He wrote this years ago for another artist. Glad he's getting what's his
Yes he also sang backup vocals on it with her too.
Chris Stapleton is the Best Male Vocalist today!!! :)
luisalonsoecheverria Next to charlie starr;)
Ed Sheeran is up there too.
Ryan Dunn I love Charlie Starr and he is awesome but he can't sing like Chris Stapleton.
As a matter of fact today is the five year anniversary of me meeting Charlie Star and his mother.
Lol, I don't dislike Ed, but he sure as hell ain't close to Chris's vocals
@@logan3398 You obviously havent listened to all of Eds stuff then lol. Chris is amazing and one of my favorites. But Vocally they are both insanely good. Its a lot closer than you think.
This man is beyond words. He could sing his a, b, c's - and I'd get chill bumps. I concur - Incredible....
Gina Bullard Check out cringeworthy. It's a spoof he did and it's hilarious.
You feel me you know
Its you and
U crazy I am still amazed that I can pull that feeling so I do.
U Wang your and I think I need you to come 6. z MpooO
It has been a long time since a song ,a voice, an artist has stopped me in my tracks....if everyone in the world could hear him sing today we would be in a better world tomorrow..all the love Chris....Thank you for sharing this with us all!
Gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.
I am no fan of country music in general. Chris is amazing. Awesome beyond words. You absolutely will not see this level of talent and sincerity replicated in this lifetime. A truly special soul, what more needs said?
Nothing but thx for giving appreciation to a great artist and the music I care for.
I can't say I've ever been a country music fan but my fiancé introduced me to Mr. Stapleton's art and I'm absolutely blown away. This man's talent won't be matched any time soon in my opinion.
"In this lifetime" are you referring to your own lifetime?
Same
Doug McGuire I absolutely agree. In general I'm not a current country music fan. But this guy has got it all.. Powerful powerful and he's written some of the best songs out there in any genre
The amount of emotion you hear in this is unbelievable..
I just discovered this song and the timing is just right. Balled my eyes out!! When music brings pain to the surface, its a pretty magical thing. Mad respect, Chris!!!
His talent is just like his voice raw, natural, and undeniable..
wow..... this sounds better than a studio version.....OMG.... WHAT A VOICE
Wow! If this man is the future of "country music", then sign me up. What a talent. I feel like i'm in high school again, as I've played this performance on repeat all night.
the wise words!
whew, I'm not the only one
Well said, thats what I feel. Discovered Stapleton through "Say Something" with Timberlake....
This isn’t the future of country. Chris is in his own league. No one in country can even compete with this. They will keep putting out pop country to make money but, chris will be the one who turns the lights out on country when he leaves,
Rollsroyce44 I agree, I hate to see him pigeonholed into the country music genre , he is so much more than that!
His transition from you can go you can stay was absolutely flawless!
this is even better than the studio version! the hell it is possible? wow!
He writes and sings with so much passion and it shows. Not to mention, his voice is so intoxicating. I can't get enough. Already ready for volume 2. Please keep blessing us with your true talent Chris.
WHAT TKJCIC? ? ? I KNOW JESUS AND THE F_ _ _ _ _ _ IS NOT INTERESTED IN THIS BRAIN WASH'N YOU ARE PUSH'N ON MY BUTT, LETS JUS LISTEN TO CHRIS AND GIVE IT UP MAN, I'LL HELP YOU IF YOU BE NEED"N IT, I'VE GOTTA GO . . . WHAT'S WRONG ? ? ?
the rapture isn't even biblical it's made up from Catholic church so is Easter and Christmas presents and the Easter bunny have no place on a day that's for the father
its just a song!
First song in a long time to give me goosebumps
watch Sometimes I Cry by Chris. Song gives me chills every time
I just discovered this song a few hours ago today and I've been replaying it NONSTOP
If you havent by now, check out his track called "Whiskey and You"...very similar composition to 'Either Way'...but each song is just raw emotional truth. Some of Chris' best music is just his singular vocal, alone & laden...and his unplugged acoustic guitar.
Heard this song for the first time the other day. Minding my own business cooking dinner, getting stuff done, music playing in the background. By the time the second verse hit I was on the floor crying like a baby. This is how you write a song about falling out of love and it hurts, but its soooooooo good. I don’t know if it was the emotions in his voice or the melody that gets me the most but damn I felt this whole song.
the 33 people who didnt like this are obviously deaf. INCREDIBLE
God damn this is almost 100% accurate to the studio version. Yet somehow even more powerful
THE KING JESUS CHRIST IS COMING shhhhhhh
THE KING JESUS CHRIST IS COMING AND I NEED TO LAY OFF METH
PERSONALLY, IM WAITING FOR THE CHURCH TO GET RAPTURED OUT OF HERE, FOR A LOT OF REASONS, CAN'T WAIT . . . JOEL . . .
The Voice performance was the same............Better than the studio version IMHO
Jakub Wojajczyk I agree this is better than the CD one slightly. his voice touches my soul hah, he's awesome!
The painful surrender of the words, and the cadence of the song... WOW! This is a moving yet sad combination of feelings, “you can’t hate or you can’t hurt when you don’t feel at all”. Thank you, Chris, for sharing this emotionally raw song. It can help make the realization of the decision, “I won’t love you either way.”
i dont know who you ppl are that are giving thumbs down but haters ! I'm a heavy metal 80s kid and its been a very long time since I've heard someone that can really sing and not fake and this guy is for real and hes country as they come and i love that about him!!
If you have true appreciation for music, than you feel the way you do. Genres don't matter when you can do what he is doing!
You called that one dead on. True talent
My favorite song on his new album. This is pure raw emotion.
Chris is a powerhouse. He is by far one of the best musicians. The industry should count their blessings for an artist like this. Not only is he a vocal powerhouse, a gifted lyricist, and a brilliant songwriter, but he has a gift that not many musicians do nowadays-he reaches/touches people. I prefer to listen to live, acoustic music versus the band, bells, and whistles, all day long. When an artist sounds just as good acoustic/a cappella as he does recorded, if not better, you can't get much better than that.
I completely agree with you.
Amen!!
I'm just floored by this song and it's delivery. That voice. So vulnerable and yet so powerful. Dang!
His music is amazing. His live performances are second to none. Him and the guitar are a perfect marriage. He is country and blues in the most perfect union. Simply amazing.
Agree 💯% and when his wife, Morganne joins him with her harmonies it is purely magical.
You nailed it with the country and blues union.
Absolutely breathtaking. Every one of the live performances I've seen of this song is spot on.
Thank you Tyler Perry for putting me on to this song. So pure, powerful and emotionally beautiful.
That’s what brought me to it as well!!! How brilliant of TP to include a reference to this in Divorce In Black!
Loved that way for many years. This song hits me hard. He's amazing
I am blown away by Chris...powerhouse vocals and songwriter!
The simplicity in his style is more soulful and heartfelt than anybody i've ever heard. It doesn't matter what kind of music you love , any one who hears this has to be moved by it. Truly one of my favorite Singer/Songwriters of my lifetime.
Thomas Murray He's pretty amazing!
The emotion this brings out of me cannot be described.
This MAN IS A LEGEND!!! His music will be played by generations to come long after we are all gone
Masterful performance. Puts his whole being into his craft... it just doesn't get better than this folks.👏👏👏❤
Heard this on the radio yesterday. It is the most hauntingly beautiful song I've heard in years.
First person I ever saw in concert that I said, “Holy shit he’s astronomically better in person.” I was a Stapleton fan long before the concert. WILL go again. Thank you Chris for sharing your talent with the world.
Most musicians would sell their souls to the Devil to write one song with is much heart and soul as Chris seems to have in everyone of his. His songs resonate through your body like a chisel striking a stone!
I've had this song on repeat for almost 2 days straight. Love it
This man is an AMAZING song writer (has written for some of our top artists of all genres) and artist. Its so awesome he's finally being recognized for his talent.
chris Stapleton and Chris Kläfford singing this together....nuclear love explosion
2019 who ever thumbed down this performance must have brain damage. Such a booming voice, I am in the feels right now.
My favorite current artist. Love all of his stuff. This performance is flawless.
Honestly one of the most impactful live performances that I’ve ever seen, hands down. Breath taking
Damn. Music needed this man. Not just country music.
This is the best artist out today. That voice has been touched by something angelic and soulful. Writer. Producer. The whole package.
You know an artist hits you when they're the only sole reason you haven't ended things for good. If it wasn't for this man, I'd've left this place long ago. I owe you my life mr stapleton 🙏
zAch TV hang in their brother. Jesus loves you. trust!
zAch TV just hang on! it can be hard to see sometimes but you are here to do something great and you are needed! accept more love and joy in your life, give as much as you can, and you will feel and see the change. god bless ❤
zAch TV god loves you man, your god loves you and this world is a better place with you. Keep smiling
Everybody has a purpose in life. God wouldnt have brought you to life if it weren't for something important. Keep your head high and your faith in Him and the good lord will provide.
"hang" in their
Are you fucking kidding me, this man is a legend. Holy shit.
Man, I'm hardly a fan of country but this guy is something special. What a voice.
As a music producer myself this is literally perfection his inflection both on hs voice and chords is amazing
Dude is absolutely drenched in musicianship. In every form. No one like him has come along in years.
This will never not give me chills.
Living in Southwest VA, just a handful of hours away from Nashville, to me this isn't country. This pure gold is more Folk/Soul music. This right here is beyond great
This performance is remarkable in every way- what every artist strives for... To take a song, and pare it down to it’s purest essence is what separates artists- this man is at the top of his game!
How can you get enough of Chris. His voice is touched by God him self
He's. A. Legend. He defies a label.
He’s so dam talented it’s unreal. He’s one of a kind. And he’s a master on the guitar 🎸
I'm from UK and we celebrate country music about as much as Thanksgiving Day...but this guy deserves his own National Anthem . God save Chris Staple ton!
We love him as much as we celebrate independence day :)
I used to listed to a very different kind of music, until I heard Chris Stapleton. His songs have meaning with a soulful voice and sincere, meaningful lyric to go with it. I'm in!
My LORD I love and can relate to this song SO damn much! Love him❤️❤️❤️
His voice....you can feel the emotion.
He reaches every cell in my body. His voice gives me goose bumps. I cry every time i hear him sing this song. I saw him a couple of weeks ago and it was the best concert. We danced, we laughed, and we cried. I think he brought out every emotion with his songs. Love him!
this guy transcends country music. Id categorize him as MUSIC period. The guitar rift hes playing sounds like something Soundgarden might play back in the day. His sound is just pure and does exactly what a good song is suppose to tell a story and almost forces you to listen. AMAZING!
