Just a FYI - the backup singers are a couple that were picked out by Allen after they sang with him on stage at one of his Karaoke Extravaganza shows. He embedded his fans into this beautiful version. And now I'm crying.. thanks guys!
Talent off the chart but this world is too interested in mediocrity and bullshit pop music by the likes of Taylour Swift Selena Gomez and Justin Beiber or the noxious, degrading music of JayZ & Beyoncé. True talent and God-given gifts like this artist are overlooked and ignored by the music industry. Jarle Bernhoft is the same boat as Allen Stone. Saw them in concert together - AMAZING! Put these guys on a Grammy stage so they can show the posers what art truly is!

I lost my mother a year ago and when I heard this song for the first time, I burst into tears. Her favorite color was blue. Now I play it almost every day in memory of my mom.
So you people believe that this was recorded by who, someone who came back from the 60’s? Like there is an engineer. It’s called a live session engineer. That’s the position. Or live mixing engineer (separate from the sound engineer in a concert). Besides, you guys confuse recording and production, the later being (in the mainstream industry) a process which destroys the music’s soul. But to say that there are no engineers capable of recording modern talents is just as foolish as to say there are no modern talent. This wasn’t recorded by magic Sherlock.
I can't stop the rain But I will keep you dry If the shore feels far away I'll be by your side When the storms arise I will shelter you When your sky is gray I will give you blue I can't move a mountain I am just a man I can't undo what's said But I will understand And although it may hurt Baby, I'll tell you the truth 'Cause when your sky is grayed I will give you blue I can't stop the rain But I will wipe your tears I wish I could take what hurts you And make it disappear But I can't work no miracles But I'll do what I can do When your sky is gray Baby, I will give you blue When your sky is gray I will give you blue Give you blue I will give you blue Give you blue I will give you blue
I can't stop the rain But I will keep you dry If the shore feels far away I'll be by your side When the storms arise I will shelter you When your sky is gray I will give you blue
Sometimes the most valuable things don't readily rise to the surface (ex. diamonds and gold) but are discovered because someone went through the effort to find something of great value. You ain't here to discover Allen Stone, you are here because you are a discriminating listener who knows great value. And Allene Stone is of great value as an artist
My wife instantly loved this song when I showed her. So much so that it became our first dance song at our wedding. Allen has an unbelievable voice filled with soul and passion!
This is the best version of this song to ever exist. I want this to be my wedding song Allen never fails to amaze me . I prefer every live version over the studio version of his songs. There’s just so much rawness and emotion, you can tell he really loves what he does. I appreciate this man so much 🥺
I am not the type to get emotional, but I can't help but cry. This song just hits at soul depth and my heart yearns for a love this honest. Allen, you have changed me. You've changed my perception of life and love, through your music. Listening to you for so many years, you've struck so many chords in my heart. Can't wait to travel the Pacific Ocean in a few months time to see you live again. You've got a hardcore fan for life. I'll be bringing these tears with me lol
Often hear the “Stevie” tone/range but, I know it’s Allen. So beautiful, cuts to your soul. A similar feeling when listening to Eva Cassidy. Mahalo for Allen Stone!
This song is for my lil sister. We just went to his concert! She is my best friend, and the lyrics in this song describes all the things I wish I could take from her, her pain, her sorrows. But I can't... So I tell her, I will ALWAYS give you blue! We're even getting blue heart tattoos! 💙
Thanks very much people, don't feel forgotten about how much this song is sang so beautifully and sincerely and got me through a tough time like this whole world too. Much RESPECT and love 🥰 #staysafe x
I've been stuck on both of then for a while now. Like, I have a playlist with just the two of them😄. This comment is great! And I can sorta see teddy slaying this song🤔
I have been an r&b fan since I was in high school in the 90s graduated in 98 my favorite singers are Brian McKnight Robin Thicke Maxwell and I can honestly say after hearing this song for the first time this might be the next greatest singer in the top five right underneath Brian McKnight Maxwell Robin Thicke and Remy shand
Cannot listen to the whole song without breaking down😢😭 My Dad left as an infant and my step Dad died when i was 16. I became a father at 20 years of age and listening to this song brings out all the pain and healing all at the same time. But overall Allen, u have allowed me to know that its ok to become vulnerable. Thank u for ur beautiful stories😊🙏
I heard him for the first time, tonight . He was singing this song on NPR. I had to pull over .. turn up the sound. His voice is breath taking. I found him on utube and have been listening to each version. Tender, heartfelt, bluesie, I could hear him hit every note , and created a twisting, winding road , right up to the exact note... with inflection and a soulfulness. Its been a long 4 miserable years... and his voice started the beginning of the sun coming out to shine.. lovely. Thank you
Mother's Day is coming up. I lost my mom in September. This song just arrived in time. Mom I am playing this and I will treasure the times we danced in the living room. I miss you so much mommy. I love you so much😪😪😪😪
Love in itself is a miracle and giving others this beautiful song, these powerful lyrics to Express themselves, giving them this heartfelt moment to describe what they feel but can't verbalize....it's a miracle and loving someone... yall love hard, giving them blue or keeping them dry... they're little miracles that altar even that one other person's world and ability to create another miracle for either you in return or someone who follows. Thank you for this beautiful moment Allen.
I know it says you wrote this a year ago, but I just found Allen a month ago or so. It was "Consider Me" and I felt the exact same way when hearing that song and seeing the video. He just gave so many people their wedding song. That song is literally the perfect wedding song and I'm single dude that sings and listens to it every day haha(hopeless romantic I guess). Meanwhile, I can't count how many times I've listened to this song, it just gives the pimples of the goose!
This is the song that made me just fall in love with allen Stone! First heard him few days ago on a AD! Well that AD... Got me subbed and addicted to this white boy wit all this dam flava! You go head now allen stone im on yo side like nationwide baby!☝💛💛💛💛💛💎
This song just broke me wide open. Bawling my eyes out like a baby..... This is how the love of my life loved me. He passed away on April 1st to the Coronavirus. Now the blue skies are replaced with nothing but grey.
This song hugs and holds my SOUL romantically, just the way it wants to be held.......🥰❤❤❤❤❤🤗. This song is priceless, who wouldn't want this song to be about them?????
So I just found this guy like 3 weeks ago and I still haven’t found by him that I dislike. So soulful. How have I not heard of him. How does the world not know people like him and Anderson Paak exist.
I absolutely adore Allen Stone for the unique individual he is and his voice and songwriting skills are off the chart❤❤❤❤ he blew me away with unaware live in his mother's living room but in comparison he was a young boy this is the man Allen Stone😊😊😊 one of my all-time favorite performances by Uncle Al is the Bob Marley cover Is This Love live at Bonnaroo❤❤❤❤ have a blessed day
Well alrighty then.... drop the mic, roll credits, cut, that's a wrap... he KILLED it- as usual. I'm always so late to the party, but I'm so glad I found him!!! Oh & the tight low key background vocals... BRAVO!!!
Just came back a few days ago from his concert in Gold Coast Australia. It was epic. Such a pure voice. As my sister said, he sings straight to your heart ❤️.
Just a FYI - the backup singers are a couple that were picked out by Allen after they sang with him on stage at one of his Karaoke Extravaganza shows. He embedded his fans into this beautiful version. And now I'm crying.. thanks guys!

Who's the female singer?
no doubt, he’s going down as one of the greats... the world may not see it now but mark my words
I like lay it down -AS, shoulda known better and tonight - deandre th-cam.com/video/N3Ksu0zgGNA/w-d-xo.html
anne golden, new wine and i look to you and zacardi cortez - let your power fall, hes able.
AGREED
GREATS of what? lol
Wrong
Syber Salvatore greats of musicians, duh
I lost my mother a year ago and when I heard this song for the first time, I burst into tears. Her favorite color was blue. Now I play it almost every day in memory of my mom.
I lost my mama Dec 13 2019 and I heard this song soon after ..now it's my favorite song.....
Oh my gosh! My heart goes out to you, I can only imagine how this touched you I would've balled my eyes out to!
❤️I'm so sorry for your loss
💙💙💙💙So sorry for your loss.
I just lost the love of my life April 1st. This is how he loved me. I'm bawling my eyes out right now. It's been on repeat.
I don’t comprehend how this dude literally sounds 10x better live than his studio recordings. Damn.
modern engineers don't know how to record actual talent.
I feel you on that. I agree whole heartedly.
Agreed. I need a whole live album
Preach
So you people believe that this was recorded by who, someone who came back from
the 60’s?
Like there is an engineer. It’s called a live session engineer. That’s the position. Or live mixing engineer (separate from
the sound engineer in a concert).

But to say that there are no engineers capable of recording modern talents is just as foolish as to say there are no modern talent.
This wasn’t recorded by magic Sherlock.
He says he 'can't work no miracles' and then busts out the most beautifully sung belt I have ever heard.
This was the song me and my wife shared as our first dance at our wedding. Makes me smile every time i listen to it!
Ridiculous Range ☑️
Perfect Pitch ☑️
Brilliant Guitarist ☑️
Vibrato you can hula hoop through ☑️ Beautiful lyricist ☑️
Texture/tone
yesssssss
Needs bass
Freedie Mercury would be amazed
And back up singers that accompany him perfectly
Has very big Stevie Wonder sound to it…..beautiful
I can't stop the rain
But I will keep you dry
If the shore feels far away
I'll be by your side
When the storms arise
I will shelter you
When your sky is gray
I will give you blue
I can't move a mountain
I am just a man
I can't undo what's said
But I will understand
And although it may hurt
Baby, I'll tell you the truth
'Cause when your sky is grayed
I will give you blue
I can't stop the rain
But I will wipe your tears
I wish I could take what hurts you
And make it disappear
But I can't work no miracles
But I'll do what I can do
When your sky is gray
Baby, I will give you blue
When your sky is gray
I will give you blue
Give you blue
I will give you blue
Give you blue
I will give you blue
Uh not quite
I can't stop the rain
But I will keep you dry
If the shore feels far away
I'll be by your side
When the storms arise
I will shelter you
When your sky is gray
I will give you blue
Thank u
Beautiful words man has a beautiful beautiful voice
Fantastic. Soul moving, breath taking and heart stopping.
If I had to listen to just one voice for the rest of my life, easily it would be Allen Stone.
If love had a voice... am i right?!
Me too ❤❤❤❤
Matt Corby too?
@@KataroQuick THAT would be the best Collab ever! Please let me hear Matt Corby and Allen Stone together before l die. 🙏
Same!

Me Sweetie, absolutely 💯 ME!!! Lovin’ every bit of it too❤
Me too…. I love this man… this real music
Allen ate this tune up! 💓💓😎

I'm going to quote you. Thank you for this perfection of words
That's a great thing to say. Thanks for saying it.
My wife instantly loved this song when I showed her. So much so that it became our first dance song at our wedding. Allen has an unbelievable voice filled with soul and passion!
doing the same thing in september. congrats friend
I'll take purple, green, or blue as long as the song has been sung by you.... Allen Stone! :- )
Alan's songs don't come from the heart , they come from his very soul. They are way too deep to come from any place else.
I'll drink to that!
Dana Hopkins TRUE DAT ♥️
OMG absolutely!!
FACTS!
This is Music...real Music.
Why isn't this man a superstar???!!!!
With all due respect, he is a superstar.
2023 and I still don’t think he got enough credit for this beauty!!! Most soulful voice out there.
I’ve probably listened to this song 50 times today
UberPare my hubby play this song every morning while his getting ready for work🙂
UberPare yeah same. I just discovered him like 3 weeks ago. Imagine my excitement when this is the first time I’ve heard this song.
@@syd223 70
so do I🤤
My boyfriend played this for me, and it made both of us cry. There’s genuine love in these words. Literal art.
This song stops my fussy baby from fussing immediately
Thanks Allen
This is the best version of this song to ever exist. I want this to be my wedding song
Allen never fails to amaze me . I prefer every live version over the studio version of his songs. There’s just so much rawness and emotion, you can tell he really loves what he does. I appreciate this man so much 🥺
Facts
this was my wedding song and I cried like a baby with my wife!
Where can I download this specific version of this song
I agree, the live is 100. The recorded is very bad imo. I don't understand the music choice for the recorded version.
@@rosheelize5657I can’t find it anywhere except here 😢
I am not the type to get emotional, but I can't help but cry. This song just hits at soul depth and my heart yearns for a love this honest. Allen, you have changed me. You've changed my perception of life and love, through your music. Listening to you for so many years, you've struck so many chords in my heart.

Wow, you feel him the same way I do 💜
@@vettelover695💯 💜
Lost my dad. He would sit and watch Allens videos patiently with me. Man. This song right here!!!! On repeat ❤
Often hear the “Stevie” tone/range but, I know it’s Allen. So beautiful, cuts to your soul. A similar feeling when listening to Eva Cassidy. Mahalo for Allen Stone!
R Nish definitely at the end I almost lost it. Needs a duet with Luke James and he’ll have top r&b or soul song OTY
I see that mahalo 😉 🤙🏽 yes I Allen Stone is a real blessing
For sure...Allen was heavily influenced by Stevie.
This song is for my lil sister. We just went to his concert! She is my best friend, and the lyrics in this song describes all the things I wish I could take from her, her pain, her sorrows. But I can't... So I tell her, I will ALWAYS give you blue! We're even getting blue heart tattoos! 💙
Strong🙏🏻
Amazing!🤝🫡💙
Miss my brother so much, I was 13 years older than him, but he became my big brother!! Talked me through so much!! RIP Neil 💞✌️!!😘
He got certified swag, Stevie wonder swag yet perfectly Original
If you sing you can't help but be in awe anytime this guy sings.... amazing

@@joyformercy9627 yeah, there voices are similar enough to sound great together but not seem like one of them just sang two parts.
🙌
Holy. Fuck. How have I not heard of this guy until now? People. We are witnessing the birth of a legend. Wow.

I heard him for the first time, tonight . He was singing this song on NPR. I had to pull over .. turn up the sound. His voice is breath taking. I found him on utube and have been listening to each version. Tender, heartfelt, bluesie, I could hear him hit every note , and created a twisting, winding road , right up to the exact note... with inflection and a soulfulness. Its been a long 4 miserable years... and his voice started the beginning of the sun coming out to shine.. lovely. Thank you

I can't get over this performance. Going back here is like coming home. This feels like forgiveness of all kinds and love at its purest.
One of the most powerfully souful voices in the world rn i’m moved every time i hear him sing
This may be my favorite Allen Stone song yet!! So soulful and authentic, sung with purpose and it makes you feel! Just top notch
His music is truly like therapy. Who needs a shrink?
i feel like- every version of this song GETS BETTER. it’s insane.
What a beautiful song🥲
Love in itself is a miracle and giving others this beautiful song, these powerful lyrics to Express themselves, giving them this heartfelt moment to describe what they feel but can't verbalize....it's a miracle and loving someone... yall love hard, giving them blue or keeping them dry... they're little miracles that altar even that one other person's world and ability to create another miracle for either you in return or someone who follows.

Circles is what did it for me
It’s been ages since a song made me cry. This one did it within the first few bars.
I cry every time I hear this song lol Allen’s voice is Angelic
This song just broke me wide open. Bawling my eyes out like a baby..... This is how the love of my life loved me. He passed away on April 1st to the Coronavirus. Now the blue skies are replaced with nothing but grey.
I wish that I could give this video a million thumbs ups. Absolutely beautiful. Will be in the audience in Cleveland, OH. ❤😊
A rare rare talent
This song hugs and holds my SOUL romantically, just the way it wants to be held.......🥰❤❤❤❤❤🤗. This song is priceless, who wouldn't want this song to be about them?????
His vocal acrobats and pitch, tone, soulful delivery are incredibly moving.
I am OBSESSED with his music!!! 🤩❤️😍
I knew Allen wasn't playing the first time and I watched this video and saw how red he turned at 2:20 - 3:00. AND I FELT EVERY PIECE TOO!!! 🤗🤗
This version is unbelievable!!
So I just found this guy like 3 weeks ago and I still haven’t found by him that I dislike. So soulful. How have I not heard of him. How does the world not know people like him and Anderson Paak exist.

Thanks for this, discovered this song just in time for one of the darkest time of my life, this really lifts me up!
Well alrighty then.... drop the mic, roll credits, cut, that's a wrap... he KILLED it- as usual. I'm always so late to the party, but I'm so glad I found him!!! Oh & the tight low key background vocals... BRAVO!!!
😅😂😆😁😄😃😀 IKR
