Brilliant! I'm a 71 years old rocker and a lot of my heart and soul musos are either too old to tour or sadly have already passed. I found Teddy a few months ago looking around youtube and I am so pleased to find someone else to give me the music chills.
@@DB-xo6xh and just today I see that Teddy Swims is touring Australia July 2024 and I just bought tickets for me & my 72 year old hubby to go and see him. So looking forward to it. Fill your life with music and the happiness is always there 💞🎶
@@DB-xo6xh I've never worn them, I've already got mild tinnitus.... going to see Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden in others similar in years past will do that to you 🤣
I'm 28 years old, from Germany. I salute you I hope you find comfort in this comment. The soul never ceases to exist, the way Teddy put his soul into this song I'm positive this song was also heard incredibly loudly in the afterlife, wherever they may be. Kind Regards
@gaynorpalmer2872 I ASKED MY DAUGHTER ABOUT HIM YESTERDAY & TOLD HER HOW MUCH I LOVED HIS VOICE & SHE SAID: "MOMMA, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? TEDDY SWIMS IS A POPULAR SINGER!!" I GUESS I'M TOO OLD......😆
I…..am listening! I’m 79, live in northern CA, and taking my 26 year old son to one of your concerts is on my very short bucket list! Please take care of yourself, stay alert, and have a long life

Holy shit, I’ve only just came across Teddy by pure chance and I’m hooked! His voice is captivating. Haven’t heard music this good in a looooong time. Cannot wait to listen to his whole album, NOW!!!!
Me too im literally just finding him and falling instantly in love, what a voice I'm quivering lol I've already sent this video to 10 people and shared it & I only found him 5 minutes ago . My mom was trying to tell me who he was XMass eve but she couldn't remember his name
I remember finding Teddy years ago when he was just a chunky, nerdy kid doing covers on TH-cam. So cool to see how he has evolved musically. Fuckin amazing song.
Come to any Baptist or Pentecostal church in Harlem on Sunday when the choir is singing. We hear voices like this all the time. For my whole life. BUT - the singer doesn't hardly ever look like this! He has so much soul!
Honestly this has immediately become one of my favorite songs of all time. Bluesy, poppy, rock all at the same time with SOUL in the voice. Amazingly well written, composed and performed.
Qué canción!! Desde el primer momento me pareció de lo más sexi. Excelente nterpretación , con sentimiento. La voz es de otro planeta. Especial para esta canción. El solo de guitarra también suena impecable. 💯💯💯👏👏👏👏
I was late in discovering Mr. Swims, but now that I have I'm obsessed with his music, especially this song. IMO it's the best thing I've ever heard. The song coupled with his unbelievable voice touches places and emotions no song before ever has. And I'm 76 years old so I've heard a lot of great music in my time. Bravo, Mr. Sims. If this definitive piece of work doesn't bring you the stardom you certainly deserve, something is wrong with the ears of everyone in the world. Thank you for sharing your talent and voice with us all.
Ever since Janis Joplin, and Joe Cocker, I hadn't encountered a singer with an equally remarkable voice-raw, gritty, bluesy-until I heard Teddy Swims. His voice is extraordinary, he pours his heart and soul into every song.
100% agree , I first heard this song when himself and Kelly Clarkson sang it on her show, I fellin love with his voice then,I can't wait to hear more xx♥♥♥
You need to listen to more music ^^. There is plenty of artists like Teddy. I recommend Chris Stapleton being the generational talent and likely best singer out there right now.
This dude has some pipes. The emotion he sings with, you’re there with him when he sings. You feel what he feels. Teddy Swims, sir, you don’t only make art, you’re an artist.
His guitarist is pretty iconic too! Could listen to him all day when he doesn't stray in to album padding. He did a duet with someone that I wasn't terribly impressed with.... my opinion though....
First day on this sober journey. No more pills liquor & weed to help face my problems. I needed to hear this TODAY because I’ve been slipping for like forever now. But hearing this song & reading the comments gives me all the hope I need. Beautiful song & what a beautiful message it has behind it.
Simple things by sir swims is also a great song for the emotions and trials you will face. I hope you are finding peace. Darkness will never last, you will feel the sun on your face again.
You got this. Been there, so happy I realized a change was needed. Life isn't perfect but its manageable, bad days come and go but at least I'm here for them all! All the best on your journey of self discovery, discipline, and accountability.
I know it's cliche but one day at a time my brother. You made the conscious decision to stack things in your favor. Darkness will still knock on your doorstep and tempt you daily, but with the right mindset and a positive attitude, you can slam the door in it's face and live life YOUR way , on YOUR terms. I was a lost cause who should not be here right now to post this. Almost 4 years ago I made the same decision to try something new, because my way clearly wasn't working. If nobody has told you yet today , I'm proud of you and you are loved. Keep on keeping on my friend.
I'm 57 from Japan. 9months ago, on my way back to Japan from Copenhagen via Helsinki, the Belgian guy next to me was listening to this song while waiting to board. Teddy's voice from the earphones he shared with me sounded like my partner's scream, and I couldn't stop tears.. I went to Copenhagen to see my beloved partner for the first time in three and a half years, and it was at the church where his funeral was held. This song is truly his will...I listen to this song every day with his soul .
@@misspoliticallyincorrect2081 I am very grateful that you took the time to send me, a stranger, a heartwarming message of comfort from somewhere in the world. I wish you all the best in the future!
I must be living under a rock. I never heard him before. I'm sitting here trying to describe how I'm feeling as I listen to him and I have no words. Stunning and miracle are the only two that come to mind. A stunning, living, breathing miracle.
But everyone knows this man, as they should. His music constantly goes viral, as do his performances. This video has over a hundred million views. I understand not liking what the mainstream often puts out but don't dismiss his success because of your annoyance with that.
I messed around and closed my eyes for split second, listening to him sing and felt like the Holy Spirit was in his voice somewhere ready to come all the way out.
they play it every now and then on Memphis radio but the usual low vibration music is still permeating .Keeping the real talented voices from being heard. The powers that be see the writing on the wall an if more talented voices keep coming through it can once again purify music instead of this crap that has been forced on the radio by satan's army.
I just discovered this song yesterday and I know I've listened to it at least 150 times by now!! The melody, the voice, the arrangement just everything is such a masterpiece!! The song is soooooo dope!!!
I heard it about 30 min ago and I’ve listened to it constantly since….. amazing! Seriously you already stated what I was going to say… the voice…..the tone of the music….EPIC
I am 63 years old. This man has got the best voice I think I've ever heard throughout my lifetime. He's just amazing and the lyrics "I need some relief your skin in my teeth" so much passion! His voice is amazing over 63 years I haven't heard someone like him. Love you Teddy Swims!!!❤
Calm down Grandma, you got some competition up in here lol 65 here. I'm sure Teddy would be just thrilled to know he has a whole fan base of the more mature persuasion (wink wink) But seriously this young man is something special ❤️
@@patriciaoconnor1793 I also see a similarity to Joe Cocker. I'm going to show Teddy to my dad, he's a huge J.C fan. I like listening to him too. Great song and impressive artist.
We live with and by the music, such a wonderful voice, this song will touch the soul of many generations. Teddy, thanks for existing and for being such a great singer!!
Oh yes this man has pulled a feeling out of this 60 year old concert goer from way back when THAT moves my soul like No other artist in a very very long time! Thank You for opening my eyes and ears to a feeling of music THAT the world hasn't been honored to feel until YOU Blessed us WITH your Existence. What a soulful voice.❤ Gotta see you in concert. 🙏🏻
Doesn’t matter what Teddy S. Sings. He is the ultimate fusion of Soul, Blues, Jazz, Country. You can’t help but shut your eyes and enjoy the feeling of his music ….
The bluesy, silky, smooth and soulful voice of Teddy takes me back to the 70’s where some of the greatest voices rang out the most beautiful sound.❤ I’ve loved his sound since I heard his first voice over.. He can sing the alphabet to me and it’ll sound like a hit.
It's been years since an artist has given me chills and made me close my eyes, and I could physically FEEL the music, and almost see inti the depth of their passion. Thank You Teddy Swims, for sharing your amazing talent with this world. Humanity has needed you. ❤
Yes he makes you feel it from head to toe, instead and out. Just soulful. He not ugly but he's not sexy either but he sounds sexy as hell singing that song
In the time we live in, you expect to hear a great voice. But this is beyond perfection. The lyrics, the music outstanding. And Mr. Swims, best vocals in the business . I love you and can't wait to hear more
This song brought me back to life . The voice, the energy, the beat, the rhythm, guitar riff, but mostly the PAiN he’s been through. This is so powerful
I am obsessed with this song right now and listen to it constantly. Also, the version him and Kelly Clarkson did was fantastic, as well. He's a fantastic singer!
I’m obsessed with this song. Found it on an ad and immediately got hooked. Been going in and out of depression after breaking up with my boyfriend, mental, and physical health. Your voice resonates in my soul.
Same, lost my brother months ago and break up with my boyfriend, after he broke me 5 ribs. I’m in bed now, hoping I’ll be better in a while with my bones….and this song is so powerful, I love it. We can all do it, keep strong! Big hug from Italy
This song brought me to tears. I just went through a terrible breakup (mentally and physically abusive) and this song just hits different. I'm staying strong for me and my kids. Thanks for this. ❤ I'm your #1 fan ❤
I hope you feel better it does just take time.. trust me I know mental and physical abuse is hidden to much 😢❤❤❤❤❤ it took me 11yrs not because of the idiot. You kw ❤❤❤
You are already strong you left the devil behind, you are a superwoman to your kids and I understand the abuse, been there done that, you are a hero just for choosing yourself ❤️ And how does Teddy smash it every time?
Hi, my name is Christina and I am going to be 69 in March. I just found this Teddy swims about four months ago and he is so very talented. Is he not? I mean like you said he has the ability to reach down and touch right into your heart and your soul? And he sings with such passion that I can feel it all over my body.
Love the fact that you can hear and feel that emotion and soul you mentioned , yet it doesn't sounded forced at all like you get so often when artists try to go there and only end up sounding like they are trying to hard to imitate the likes of Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, Jonny Lang, Tina Turner, Ottis Redding, and the like. Sounds so clean and natural. This is first time and only song I've heard from this artists to date and wow.
@@realdeal5211 Well said. Would definitely recommend listening to his other stuff. The man’s got it. And it really is surprising that he hasn’t made it big yet. He sounds better than most male artists in this day and age.
THIS IS REAL MUSIC! Lost for so long. Teddy Swims brings it back alive again. I hear it. I feel it. I love it. Please keep bringing more excellent music to todays scene❤️
Не знаю,прочитаете ли вы мой комментарий.Но я не могу не написать. Впервые услышала эту песню по радио, представляла себе темнокожего исполнителя,я мгновенно влюбилась в это шедевральное исполнение.Эта песня и голос божественны,я знаю только 2 слова,но это не мешает мне подпевать в машине.Вы в моем сердце навсегда
My husband dedicated this song to me. We have been married 20 years in October. Separated for almost 4 year’s the love we share God’s covenant stood within us. Today, we stand strong in love like never before. This song, I play everyday as he enter from work. Listen to it while I cook. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful song. The world needs more of you
AWWWWW😢😢😢😂😂😊 WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LIVE STORY... SO IT'S NOT JUST ME THAT THINKS THIS IS THE LOVE SONG OF THE 21ST CENTURY& KUDOS ON ROMEO JULIET LOVE STORY... WHAT GOOD HAD PUT TOGETHER LET NO MAN PUT ASUNDER.... YOU BOTH STAY ON THAT FIRST DATE... PLAY THAT SONG WHEN HE GETS HOME.. 🎼🎶🎵🎼🎶🎵👣🫂DANCE APPRECIATE IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO FIND AND KEEP LOVE... IT WAS RIGHT THERE ALL OF THE TIME... BLESS YOU BOTH AND MAY YOUR HEADS GROW OLD AND COLD TOGETHER....❤❤
Music has no color!! This voice transcends so many levels. Man I love this guys music - he hooks you with the purity of his spirit. Keep singing brother…you are a power!!!
Heard this on the radio for the first time yesterday. I immediately had to find the singer, save this song to a playlist, and listen a few more times. He put his whole soul into this and shared it with the world. Such a powerful voice and presence! 💚
I’m so happy he did this service to humanity. It would be a federal CRIME if he kept this iconic voice to himself!
I have to agree with you. Keep them coming Teddy Swims 💯💕
Uhg feels
Fucking crime against humanity
Agreed

Lyrics:
Something's got a hold of me lately
No, I don't know myself anymore
Feels like the walls are all closing in
And the devil's knocking at my door, whoa
Outta my mind, how many times
Did I tell you I'm no good at being alone?
Yeah, it's taking a toll on me, trying my best to keep
From tearing the skin off my bones, don't you know
I lose control
When you're not next to me
I'm falling apart right in front of you
Can't you see?
I lose control
When you're not next to me
Yeah, you're breaking my heart, baby
You make a mess of me
Problematic, problem is
I want your body like a fiend, like a bad habit
Bad habit's hard to break when I'm with you
Yeah, I know, I could do it on my own, but I want
That real full moon black magic and it takes two
Problematic, problem is
When I'm with you I'm an addict
And I need some relief, my skin in your teeth
Can't see the forest through the trees
Got me down on my knees, darling please, oh
I lose control
When you're not next to me
I'm falling apart right in front of you
Can't you see?
I lose control
When you're not next to me
Yeah, you're breaking my heart, baby
You make a mess of me, yeah
I lose control
When you're not here with me
I'm falling apart right in front of you
Can't you see?
I lose control
When you're not here with me
Yeah, you're breaking my heart, baby
You make a mess of me
I like it ❤
Love it bad 🎉Ha!! Ha!!
I'm losing control & tempted yo call up EX-MAN. Then, after listening to SAINT HARISON-UK Artist I changed my mind. 🎉
Thank u❤

What!? That is genuinely ridiculous
You need to listen to more music. Now, Sam Cooke was one of the greatest singers of all time.

No camera tricks, No naked vixens, no Lambo, just pure talent. My number 1 artist right now.
lo de "zorras" sobra en su comentario
Wow, so true!!
Me too!
That's best comment this is .music , this is real talent no auto tune
🎯
This song is fire🔥. Teddy's voice is magical, hypnotizing and soulful. Thank you for sharing your voice with the world it's a gift
He sure didn't lose control of his vocals. They stay tight!
Absolutely gives me chills❤
Couldn't have said any better!!!❤
I messed around and closed my eyes for split second, listening to him sing and felt like the Holy Spirit was in his voice somewhere ready to come all the way out.
Reminds of Chris Stapleton and Justin Timberlake a smash up
My goodness I can't get enough of this song! That man can sing & w/ the guitar solo, it's pure perfection!!! Hands down my new favorite artist.
This is what should be on the radio 24/7 so many beautiful voices and amazing music that we aren't even hearing!
Yo! I am just being introduced to this entity know as Teddy Swims right now! Heard this at work just now and WOW!!! Playlist increase!
It is on the radio 📻
they play it every now and then on Memphis radio but the usual low vibration music is still permeating .Keeping the real talented voices from being heard. The powers that be see the writing on the wall an if more talented voices keep coming through it can once again purify music instead of this crap that has been forced on the radio by satan's army.
true
They play it all the time in Atlanta
I just discovered this song yesterday and I know I've listened to it at least 150 times by now!! The melody, the voice, the arrangement just everything is such a masterpiece!! The song is soooooo dope!!!
I heard it about 30 min ago and I’ve listened to it constantly since….. amazing! Seriously you already stated what I was going to say… the voice…..the tone of the music….EPIC
Heard it last night been hearing it as well
Fucking same 😅
🎉we gotta celebrate
I have the same problem!! Can't Stop! Played over and over!! Is absolutely amazing!!
Now THIS is talent. And THIS is singing.
What happened to his Grammy???
Are you suffering from a head injury? Or worse.. born past 2008 😂😂
@@pip7967 I don’t understand your query
@@thedingo8833 I think this music sucks bearing in mind I fell out of music since 2010
@@pip7967it’s ok to be wrong
I love his voice. Here's to good health and many years of good music, Teddy Swims!
This song has a certain old school soul feel that hits all the right spots of my being
I agree.
i dont want to hear about your being
Overrated! I change the channel every time i hear it come on!🤮
Yes!!!
Right? I can't breathe, he's amazing
There aren't many singers out there who sound this good LIVE! He's real!
Check out jasmine sullivan live she’s got a voice that you just don’t hear anymore! I wish they’d collab
For sure 😊
Fionn whelan sounds even better
I personally like the live better 🤷🏽♀️❤🤷🏽♀️❤
I guess you haven't heard any singers except Teddy
I am 63 years old. This man has got the best voice I think I've ever heard throughout my lifetime. He's just amazing and the lyrics "I need some relief your skin in my teeth" so much passion! His voice is amazing over 63 years I haven't heard someone like him. Love you Teddy Swims!!!❤
if you are 63 years old ,you can't forget the great Joe Cocker !!!!!!
Absolutely fantastic.he hits deep..like seriously what a voice !!! Joe cocker was another who had the ability to do that too 🎵🎶🔥🔆
Calm down Grandma, you got some competition up in here lol 65 here. I'm sure Teddy would be just thrilled to know he has a whole fan base of the more mature persuasion (wink wink) But seriously this young man is something special ❤️
You 63 and you putting him with Nat King Cole? Cmon now.
@@patriciaoconnor1793 I also see a similarity to Joe Cocker. I'm going to show Teddy to my dad, he's a huge J.C fan. I like listening to him too. Great song and impressive artist.
We live with and by the music, such a wonderful voice, this song will touch the soul of many generations. Teddy, thanks for existing and for being such a great singer!!
I’m addicted to this song don’t know why, his voice, background music, love it. It feels kinda sexy
❤
IT IS SEXY!😋
Oh it's a whole buncha sexy alright.
This 100
Lo mismo
This is one of the most soul piercing songs I’ve heard in a long time and I have 65yrs of music in my soul 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
At 65 as 38 Yr old, I put your vote before mine sir, and i couldn't agree more
Damn Straight !!!!!!
Hello, could you please recommend other great songs like this?
Oh my God, I 've just done the same comment.
Gotta give him kudos....he is singing this song from his soul... you're truly a big brother....
Yes,he sure is! & It speaks straight to my soul, instant chill bumps!!
It’s so crazy hearing this song on the radio now. I brag about you to everyone. You really made it brother
This man has more soul in his pinky nail than most people have in their whole body.....i love this song so much ❤️😍
Makes you feel it!!
😆🤣🤣
It's in us all I believe, just a matter of unlocking it.
Huh?😂
Goosebumps man. There is something about his voice that is SPECIAL. Well done Teddy
Oh yes this man has pulled a feeling out of this 60 year old concert goer from way back when THAT moves my soul like No other artist in a very very long time! Thank You for opening my eyes and ears to a feeling of music THAT the world hasn't been honored to feel until YOU Blessed us WITH your Existence.
What a soulful voice.❤ Gotta see you in concert. 🙏🏻
First time I heard the tag in this I was like, "You obviously have some control, dude."
Teddy is the voice of a lost generation ..
Yep. We millenials are the last chance for the world, but already are losing ourselves to time.
I was thinking the same thing. I love it. Isn't this man's voice soooo idk . So much emotion....smooth ❤
November 2024 checked in ❤
Doesn’t matter what Teddy S. Sings. He is the ultimate fusion of Soul, Blues, Jazz, Country. You can’t help but shut your eyes and enjoy the feeling of his music ….
Второй Крис РИА...
Yes exactly is like you're floating ❤❤❤❤
His raspy voice reminds me of chris stapleton
❤❤❤ Amen ❤❤❤
Очень крутое исполнение❤
The bluesy, silky, smooth and soulful voice of Teddy takes me back to the 70’s where some of the greatest voices rang out the most beautiful sound.❤ I’ve loved his sound since I heard his first voice over.. He can sing the alphabet to me and it’ll sound like a hit.
Whats this kind of music called? Can u suggest me similar songs, singers?
@@livestrong296blues, soul music 🤩
It's been years since an artist has given me chills and made me close my eyes, and I could physically FEEL the music, and almost see inti the depth of their passion. Thank You Teddy Swims, for sharing your amazing talent with this world. Humanity has needed you. ❤
Couldn’t have said it better, feel the exact same way
I had to take off my jacket because the goosebumps were poking through from the vocal soulful electricity 🔥🔥
I have felt too
Yes he makes you feel it from head to toe, instead and out. Just soulful. He not ugly but he's not sexy either but he sounds sexy as hell singing that song
You didn't feel anything physically
Definitely Old School Rhythm and Soul! Thank you for sharing your gift Teddy!
I'm so happy he did this service to humanity. It would be a federal CRIME if he kept this iconic voice to himself!
Reminds me of Jelly Roll.
I was thinking Jelly roll also!😊
I couldn't agree more, what a voice it blows me away every time I hear it, and I can't STOP listening to it.
@@LesleyBailey-y3ome either
In the time we live in, you expect to hear a great voice.
But this is beyond perfection. The lyrics, the music outstanding. And Mr. Swims, best vocals in the business . I love you and can't wait to hear more
This song brought me back to life . The voice, the energy, the beat, the rhythm, guitar riff, but mostly the PAiN he’s been through. This is so powerful
It's called soul. And you can feel his.
I am also in lock step with this thought🫡
Agreed! ;)
What did he go through?
He's a fat, white Christina Aguilera
52 yr old widow in California . First time seeing and hearing him sing. Oh my Lord I can feel his soulful energy to the core of my soul.
❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉 🏆🥇💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯✍🏽📖
I can relate to you ..54 year old widow for 11 years. This song hit really hard..love it! Missing my beloved❤
35 and said the same.
No doubt ❤
If you ain’t get the goosebumps you ain’t alive
It was the song of the year. No competition. Hands down. Winner of the year 👏 🙌
ok
I am obsessed with this song right now and listen to it constantly. Also, the version him and Kelly Clarkson did was fantastic, as well. He's a fantastic singer!
l😅ve him
Me too!
Me too got it on now ❤
This boy is a beast finally we are getting some music ,tones,control ,and no vulgarity
Yes!!!!🙌
Traductot
Continue comme ça, tu es sur la bonne voie !
True!
What you all already said❤!
I’m obsessed with this song. Found it on an ad and immediately got hooked. Been going in and out of depression after breaking up with my boyfriend, mental, and physical health. Your voice resonates in my soul.
It will be ok. It will get easier. I understand
You can't beat the healing power of music
Let it flow through your bones...
You're still here... that tells me you're a fucking hero... thank you for inspiring me to keep going....
Same, lost my brother months ago and break up with my boyfriend, after he broke me 5 ribs. I’m in bed now, hoping I’ll be better in a while with my bones….and this song is so powerful, I love it. We can all do it, keep strong! Big hug from Italy
Was listening to this guy when he was just on TH-cam doing covers. Glad to see how much success has gained since
Acoustic God! His voice is magical, his lyrics are spiritual. Thank you for everything you do.
He isn’t singing .. He is SANGING !!!! The soul, voice control , lyrics , the guitar ❤️

No, he is SANGANG!!

Hi, my name is Christina and I am going to be 69 in March. I just found this Teddy swims about four months ago and he is so very talented. Is he not? I mean like you said he has the ability to reach down and touch right into your heart and your soul? And he sings with such passion that I can feel it all over my body.

Fantastic what voice great song ❤
Agreed!
Idk what it is, I get emotional everytime I hear this song. So much soul and emotion poring out of this man when he sings. Good job brother. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I feel the same ❤where did he come from 🎉
Same, I get emotional too and that guitar 💣
Love the fact that you can hear and feel that emotion and soul you mentioned , yet it doesn't sounded forced at all like you get so often when artists try to go there and only end up sounding like they are trying to hard to imitate the likes of Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, Jonny Lang, Tina Turner, Ottis Redding, and the like. Sounds so clean and natural. This is first time and only song I've heard from this artists to date and wow.
@@realdeal5211 Well said. Would definitely recommend listening to his other stuff. The man’s got it. And it really is surprising that he hasn’t made it big yet. He sounds better than most male artists in this day and age.
I do too,so amazing,I have goose bumps every time I hear him sing
Incredible song. I’m so addicted to it. I can’t stop playing it.
One of the BEST voices I’ve ever heard wow.
il me fait penser a un grand chanteur italien
Sounds terrible to me. I hate this song!
agreed!!! and im a music fan for almost 60 years!

Не знаю,прочитаете ли вы мой комментарий.Но я не могу не написать. Впервые услышала эту песню по радио, представляла себе темнокожего исполнителя,я мгновенно влюбилась в это шедевральное исполнение.Эта песня и голос божественны,я знаю только 2 слова,но это не мешает мне подпевать в машине.Вы в моем сердце навсегда
Говорите знаете два слова😊вы наверное не подпеваете,а кривляетесь под эту песню в хорошем смысле слова! Имитируете,да?! 👌♥️
Почему бы и нет,можно и поимитировать)))И даже покривляться.Песня реально классная,сложная и этим привлекает ещё больше.
Yo la escuché en el gimnasio todos los instrumentos suenan increíbles pero lo más espectacular es la vos simplemente increíble
Полностью я с Вами, Тедди просто завораживает! Браво тысячу раз!

The soul in his voice reaches the core of mine
This song is an absolute masterpiece

Facts bro couldn't have said it better
Heard this on the radio for the first time yesterday. I immediately had to find the singer, save this song to a playlist, and listen a few more times. He put his whole soul into this and shared it with the world. Such a powerful voice and presence! 💚
