This video performance brings back what real soul music was. Who cares how you're dressed? Listen to the damn song and how GREAT it and the musicians are, NOT how they're dressed to you'll satisfaction. That's what has killed the industry and the music. People are more interested in seeing hyped up dancing, side show Bobs, and clowns rather than seeing a GREAT singer and musicians like the unit in this video. I HOPE Allen Stone wins a GRAMMY(S)! He's what music NEEDS!! God Bless you Allen
I love the negative critiques here...all from people who definitely can't come close to Allen Stone's talent and ability. I'd rather here some glitches and a some slightly "pitchy" horns than hear all the soulless auto-tuned garbage that floods the radios. Keep doing your thing Allen. Don't pay any attention to these internet critics (or any critics for that matter). The buzz is there for a reason. Real Soul. Respect.
Cool, jazzy smooth. These sounds coming from an artist whose appearance is as unique as his sound. That raw soul Allen Stone sings comes straight from the heart. BTW the drummer's shirt is MIA.
This is the second video of him performing this song live and i love it, its real music!!!! Real music how my soul has longed for real music for soooooo long. Forget what the haters say because obviously they love the crap that the industry is putting out. But I am in love with your music, keep doing what you do babe!
@Justino08 The drummer is a good friend of mine, I played with him with Ledisi and he's a good dude. I'm not sure what vibe he killed because the song and he sounded GREAT!!!! Some people don't care about clownsmanship while they're playing, He's a FREAKING DRUMMER NOT A SHOW CLOWN AND A DAMN GOOD DRUMMER AT THAT! If you want to see a clown, go to the circus. That's NOT Jason's vibe. GO Jason and keep it tight bro. You sound AMAZING!!! Ken
Look out Yall Allen Stone is in the room....If that hair wasn't blonde....With out seeing you in person. You can be a Black Soul albino. Thanks Allen for sharing your gift
Doesn't matter in this case. Plus, it's hard to keep a flute and trumpet in tune in that environment. We don't know how long from tuning to performance. We don't know the temperature of the room versus the players' breath. Too many factors to make a big deal about it.
WHAT GLITCHES??? lol... you're right. Real Soul. His pitch is nasty tight, which for falsetto is REALLY hard to do. All the haters/critics please take a seat somewhere out of range of the music since the obvious talent is beyond your comprehension. lol
This dude is amazing everyone look up DENNIS LORENZO - Unaware this boy sang this so amazing but Allen sang it really good Im definitely a fan I'll be on season 5 of The Voice singing this song too so watch for me! :)
Great version. Yeah put a shirt on bro. As a drummer love your vibe and your flavor definitely adds to the track but think you could have cut back on the unnecessary crashes.
THE TRUTH,ALL TRUTH IN THIS SONG. THE MAN IS SIMPLY GENIUS, NOT TO MENTION THE SOUL HE EXUDES WILL PULL OUT ALL YOUR EMOTIONS.DAMN!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

One cannot have such a sick sound and groove and wear a shirt simultaneously. I’m pretty sure it’s illegal…don’t quote me on that though.
This is the second video of him performing this song live and i love it, its real music!!!! Real music how my soul has longed for real music for soooooo long. Forget what the haters say because obviously they love the crap that the industry is putting out. But I am in love with your music, keep doing what you do babe!
Allen Stone is the real deal, y'all.
Refreshing!

To be honest, I like your glasses.
MistaMobie word
Who's the drummer?! I'm unaware, hot, and bothered!

the truth
WHAT GLITCHES??? lol... you're right. Real Soul. His pitch is nasty tight, which for falsetto is REALLY hard to do. All the haters/critics please take a seat somewhere out of range of the music since the obvious talent is beyond your comprehension. lol
