This video is of Ray Lamontagne preforming his song "Shelter" Live at the BBC in London
Lyrics:
I guess you don't need it
I guess you don't want me to repeat it
But everything I have to give I'll give to you
It's not like we planned it
You tried to stay, but you could not stand it
To see me shut down slow
as though it was an easy thing to do
Listen when
All of this around us'll fall over
I tell you what we're gonna do
You will shelter me my love
And I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I left you heartbroken, but not until those very words were spoken
Has anybody ever made such a fool out of you
It's hard to believe it
Even as my eyes do see it
The very things that make you live are killing you
Listen when all of this around us'll fall over
I tell you what we're gonna do
You will shelter me my love
I will shelter you
Listen when
All of this around us'll fall over
I tell you what we're gonna do
Hey you will shelter me my love
I will shelter you
If you shelter me too
I will shelter you
I will shelter you - เพลง

He’s not underrated. He’s your favorite singer’s favorite singer.
i really think he is a verry important artist helping to preserve a genre of music thats fallen by the wayside and forgotten by corporate music. the first 20 seconds has more substance than every song played on the radio in the last 24 hours.
True
This comment is the absolute truth ❤️
Your correct
You are so correct; I completely agree. Can't stand the garbage that is being played on the radio today ; it's awful and not real music or talent.
Real music like Chris Stapleton's Tennessee Whiskey and Ray La Montagnue's music need to be preserved for eternity.❤💚💛❤
Ughhh.,.........
I mean, sure.
I mean, I'm here because it's a beautiful song.
But why hate on the music of the moment just to love this song?
I think our kids music will be good in its own way....and ours will be ours
I think if you think modern music is "played on the radio" then you're maybe an old soul.
And that's okay.
But no need to hate on now just because you remember then.
I lost my son two weeks ago Ray la Montagne songs are keeping me strong.Beautiful songs !!!
Hold strong and God bless you and yours x
Thankyou Earth to Blonde.Will do.X
God bless you beautiful brave soul. I shall keep you in my prayers xxxxxx 🧡💚💛💙💙♥️
@@azzx5738 Thank you so much X
Thank you to the two lovely people who sent me a message shows how much love their is in the world.Doing better now.
Only a few artist can sing like that. It really touches your SOUL. This man is awesome!
My husband and I saw him in Asheville NC several years ago and we had front row seats. Everyone just got out of their chairs and started slow dancing at one point.
What a magical magical night
It's like his soul is screaming out of his body...I don't care what kind of music you like this is amazing.
This man should be so much more known and loved. This voice doesn't come along often.
What an amazing man. Ray is so underrated in the musical world, but does he care? No, he doesn't.
Very underrated. I just looked up guitar tabs for a song of his and noticed 100s of his other songs. Wth people?!
If you listen to his song! You will be a good man for a woman, know what she wants,& make her love you by opening your heart
agree
...”All of this .....”- it’s like a man screaming out the cries of his heart in a song ....(sorry , I’m not a misogynist but only a man’s voice can have that effect)
You are So right Ma'am! He's such a genuine Artist and Man. Sings straight from the Heart. His work moves me.
An old soul. Simple as. Writes songs from the heart and with meaning and emotes it with as much soul as Otis Redding, as much restraint as Smokey Robinson and with real conversational language akin to early 90's David Gray, but with his own unique voice. A true inspiration in these times of fake posturing and mind numbing blandness. He makes me feel like my childhood heroes did. Carry on the good shit Ray.
Love David Gray too!
Beautifully said sir.
he goes into another realm when he sings..
delight to watch and listen to..
agreed. I go there too, quite often...
So do I. I close my eyes and make movies. :)
He's amazing. He doesn't need to sell a billion records to still be important. Some of the greatest artists of all time were greatly underappreciated.
when charts don't matter - quality abounds.
Like, Van Morrison ...... & so many more. This is beautiful. 💜
You could smoke 4 packs a day, swallow razors, and gargle bourbon and still not sound as smoky as his voice. Good Lord, this man's voice!
and why would you even want to harm yourself like that to sound that way.. .ha ha we all have our own unique gifts
I just discovered him watching old reruns of SNL. My goodness, glad I did. His voice is incredible.
Well said.The vocal chords are golden; raspy without contrivance, melodic and heartfelt.
😂😂😂😂Very True!!!
Tom Waits has entered the chat
One of those songs guaranteed to give you goosebumps
Thank you God for creating this man..his voice..his passion..my God!!!!!
A true gift to this world!!!
Dear mom: Ray LaMontagne holds a really, really special place in my heart. This musical genius was working in a shoe factory when he heard a Stephen Stills song one morning, and suddenly decided in a flash of inspiration to quit his job and pick up a guitar. I can't get over the thought of how ballsy that was, and what a bohemoth of an artist he became from the simple decision one day to just go for it. His music is absolutely transcendent for me now, and he is to my later years what Dave Matthews was to my earlier years. This song will just never leave my mind after Bob and I slow-danced to it in the living room the day he moved out of our perfect little house on Cargil Lane. One of those moments you can never forget.
😢
Heard him for the first time last week... Can't believe this song is almost 10 years old... What cave was I under -_-
Absolutely in love with his music!!!
I think I was hiding further behind you in that there cave. What a talent.
You were somewhere in the cave with me :D ... I am glad you found your way out too ;)
I think real musicians like Ray, Brandie Carlile, Michael Grimm, etc... that don't sell their souls to huge music labels don't get the exposure they deserve in the regular media! Irrelevant tho cause their music/voice/art speak for the artists they are.
Ray got major radio play in Maine .
I got his cd .. but no one I knew heard about him yet and I was such a spaz and wanted them to hear him. He definitely blows my mind.
No cave.
It just took your soul this long, to be ready for it. The universe got you :)
This song is the best of us devoted to the ones we love the most. It is friendship, love, an offering of all of who we are to the best of all we've known. Articulated and set to music by a masterpiece of a musician.
Erica H Your comment is so beautiful...it brought tears to my eyes
I love this man's voice it's so raspy and moving. He sings with deep feelings.
He has made me feel things I never thought I could by listening to his beautiful voice and words.
Amos Lee does that for me, too
"When you kissed my lips with my mouth so full of questions"....ahhhhhhhh
"you ain't never gonna shake this sense of sadness"
Ray LaMontage has the voice of an angel
Was wondering where that all went to, last time I saw him live?
And the beard of Jesus
Uh oh. I am seeing him in a few days... I have heard some bad recent reviews. Bummer.
Effie - PAAHHAHAHAAAA! This just made me laugh harder than I've laughed in a while!
Been listening to him for over 10 years now and never tire of his sound. Love Ray and I am 62.
everything he does is amazing...and God Bless him for not selling out...
I don't know you Sally, but I love you just for saying that.
I think this guy has got the BEST voice I have heard in a long time! I have had troubles with my husband and I just put this music on and it is like the world stops and it is just us, this music heals my soul!!!!
Damn this is what America needs right now. People, fire on up, grab you a adult beverage and ENJOY this blessing 🙌
I used to listen to this song on repeat during quarantine and now I get emotional once I listen to it again after two years remembering that hard time 😭
I cant believe I just recently found this outstanding, magnificent musical artist in 2024. ❤❤
You know its a good musician when their live music is consistently better than the studio version, i think ray is one of the greats of our time.
(PS no price would be too high for these versions on vinyl!!!)
+Jordan Kahlbau Its not vinyl, but I have a high quality audio version of this whole concert, email me rosslev@gmail.com if you would like to have it too.
+Jordan Kahlbau i also feel the same way about Passenger, i prefer his live versions to some originals. They should do a song together on cd and live of course.
Jordan Kahlbau yeah same with Damien rice and Ben Howard ❤
Ross Leverick hey could I get that?
Jordan Kahlbau Try
Not a Voice like this .....ANYwhere!!!!
it is so important that he says "you will shelter me and I will shelter you" because he's saying in order for this to be healthy, I'm not convincing you to love me, we will both shelter each other
Thanks
Exactly 🖤❤🤘🏻🤙🏼
The meaning, behind the song, is so beautiful. This is how a good man feels about his lover. This song makes me speechless. :)
@@allisonsingsromance4167 doesn't HAVE to be about lovers per se. To me it's about humanity helping each other get through this painful world, in general.
I saw him front row in DC about 6 months before this. Best live concert ever. It was more of an experience than just another concert.
I'm here to listen again because i wanna cry.
May God bless you...
I was introduced to ray la montagne about 10 years ago by a beautiful Scottish girl at a café! She goes you don't know real music until you hear this.... she gave me a copy of his first album and I've been hooked ever since! Too bad I moved back home and never got to see her again : (
What a drummer. His sense and feeling of swing is extraordinary
his voice has got a crisp
soul whisper....
I had the privilege of seeing him live years back. I ended up going by myself because nobody knew his music in my circle. I was so happy and moved I cried!!! Amazzzzzing and truly talented, he's a gem!
When I hear Ray LaMontagne something happens within my soul. It's beautiful...
Rare genius. And difficult to capture with relatively simple things like video cameras and a few placed microphones. Even a well crafted, warm, recording studio where producer Ethan Johns created a comfortable space to lay down perfect takes of songs like "Trouble" and "Hold You in my Arms" still require the live charge of a songwriting and performance force that only the brilliant positive charged wires from a Ray Lamontagne can provide. Those live wires, connected to the musician's bare soul are priceless. But congrats, and props, etc to BBC 4 for capturing the magic on a soundstage across the pond where so many top performances have inspired so many more. Having seen Ray several times, his onstage comfort level translates over directly into the listener's enjoyment. Exponentially. Ray and this collection of players delivers the goods; we are indeed fortunate the gear was rolling. Hard to picture a world where a minute of this wouldn't connect to the listener on a deep level where the good stuff resonates. Brilliant.
Mark DAntonio nice comment
This is the most spot-on comment I’ve ever read on TH-cam. Kudos!
What a fantastic reduction of a lovely live rendition
This live arrangement . . . Oh my goodness! 😆💞
Can't watch and listen to this without blubbering like a baby. This is so sharp and tender.
great voice, great song, great lyrics.
Love everything about it!
His songs had gotten me through some of my darkest days. I appreciate you very much. Thank you.
Following the release of his first album I became an obsessive fan, he came to Glasgow and me and the wife were there. A solitary figure came walking on to the stage with his guitar and the minute he opened his mouth to sing me and my wife just welled up, a special ability, almost supernatural performance. I saw him twice after that both times great but nothing could top the first time we saw him. Spiritual.
12 years coming here to get comfort.
Amazing! I could spend an eternity trying to explain my physiological response to Ray's music but I can't. Listen and you'll be convinced.
Mr Lamontagne is an angel.
Found Ray about 8 years ago, i will never let him go. Gritty, deep, a sound that was familiar from day one, a sound that was already inside yet not heard. Thanks for sharing ;-)
BY FAR one of the best live performers I have ever listened to. His voice is perfect. This is the best relaxing music. It appeals to a wide variety of music-listeners, from pop to classic rock and everything in between. Absolutely amazing. Love it.
Orvis128 I'm still trying to figure out if he has a genre,as a music lover. he has a bit of everything.my "go to" in dark times.
This man is a precious gem. Every word, every note, every breath is so genuinely heartfelt. He moves me.
Just have the greatest respect for Ray Lamontagne's music and his presence. So unassuming in that starting gate of soul just running through your veins. It's a breath of fresh air bottled in one's own lungs when belting out his tunes.....universal
I wish the world to be full of beautifull people like you ...
I'm Brazilian and I can't explain how this song is perfect for me. Even if I don't speak English perfectly
I would donate every tooth in my mouth for a concert with Ray and Florence and the Machine. Both sorely underrated, and insanely talented ❤️
Save half your teeth. Ray's a genius whereas Florence is a monotone one note disaster on the ears!
Sounds like 300% better than on the records...
Amaing work, Ray !
This man captures you with his soul...His voice stops you in your tracks and makes you pay attention...brings tears to my eyes and heals the heart...Love Shelter...Love Ray!
He's one of those artist you know you may never meet but when he sings it's like he's singing it for you.
He sings the story of my mother and father. Such a hauntingly beautiful song. Brought tears to my eyes.
Good Lord! This man voice goes straight to your heart and soul. If you don't feel something listening to this man sing you are dead.
Lol
I love his voice too.
@@juliadoyle5403 He is amazing.
Love every song this man sings!!! Music is truly the one of the greatest healer of the spirit & soul. Just a beautiful voice. One Love....
what a God given gift. voice of an angel.
If this song does not make you cry, you have no heart ❤️
my sister sent this to me a few months ago. i added it to my favorites and it came on one night when we were sitting in my room drunk. i cried like a baby and she held me. this is now our song i think :)
best male voice i'v ever listened to !
How did this get 196 thumbs down?! You people should be ashamed for giving an amazing artist/song such rating.
Joe Silva ...those 196 thumps down you see has hearing problem that's why they are unable to hear good music or song with soul and emotion..lol
AN OPINION....a "LIKE" button press on a singer's creation which has taken them to another world of angst, anger, loss of love, loss of love ones and a shit-load of emotional roads, when pressed should send an automatic "THANK YOU FOR YOUR KIND COMMENT ABOUT MY CREATIVITY" to the sender...
On the flip side, anyone who even gets the idea into their mind to insult somebody's body of artwork by hitting an "I HATE THIS(Disguised as a DISLIKE BUTTON)" should also be sent an automatic response.....
........ with "FUCK OFF NOBHEAD...IT WAS NEVER WRITTEN FOR YOU TO LISTEN TO IT ANYWAY....IT WAS PENNED FOR TWO REASONS..1. I ENJOYED WRITING IT and 2. IT WAS ONLY EVER WRITTEN ORIGINALLY FOR FOLK WHO ACTUALLY "LIKE" IT AND GET SOMETHING OUT OF ME WEARING MY HEART ON MY SLEEVE, CUTTING INTO THAT HEART AND ALLOWING MY SOUL TO POUR OUT, NAKED IN FRONT OF ALL TO SEE.
IF TH-cam HAD ORIGINALLY PUT A "LIKE" BUTTON AND A "NOBHEAD" BUTTON AS THE TWO CHOICES....wonder how many would press the NOBHEAD button?.....betting quite a few.
....as some may have guessed, I'M A SONGWRITER.....who hates LIKES/DISLIKES buttons....and is now campaigning to have the DISLIKE BUTTON....erm....DISLIKED enough, to remove it.
Joe Silva .00004% of the views. Not worth it to waste energy on such a small group...just enjoy the music in front of you.
+Joe Silva agree. And it's over 200 now. Feelin sorry to those ppl.
+Joe Silva Maybe their screens are turned upside down! :)
Why is this man not mainstream and a HUGE star??? He has tons of talent and amazing songs!! He should be a household name, but so many I talk to have never heard of him..I SAY TO THAT...WHAT!?!?! NO WAY!?!?!? Once they listen, they are hooked!!
hell yeah i just discovered him im hook he's the norah Jones man version lmao
Heidi Sweeden ikr, with all that talent he should be huge! I just recently discovered him myself, I saw him on Love for Levon doing Tears of Rage, and that's all it took I instantly fell in love with that voice :)
So much soul and feeling to his music, lyrics and voice...he is the best!
he is at our house
Jill Beard shout out to Jill’s house
Обожаю слушать Рэя. Всё очень мелодично и эмоционально! Превосходно!
covid-19 outside and i in my bedroom listening shelter of ray lamontagne....well at least im saved
Epic.... Right!
I have no words for this, and that is quite rare
Ray is just amazing
i love his songs...he sing with emotion..i listen to his songs everyday
God given talent!! OMG!!!
I love this version of Shelter sung with such passion and depth
This voice reaches deep in my soul... Your lyrics are so intense and written with such beautiful emotion... Love Love this performer.!!! Thank you Ray for sharing your wonderful talent!!!
gives me chilles
OMG where have I been that I have missed listening to this man's absolutely amazing voice so haunting.
He played this just last week when I saw him live for his solo tour, second row this song was unbelievable no one holds a candle to this man's talent.
Love this guy also. Who else takes you to another time and place when he sings. Shelter in my life makes me :)
so glad i found this
I remember listening to this, heart broken over my ex almost 10 years ago. Ray has that ability to take you back to a single day or time. Damn you man 😭😭😭
What real music sounds like. Beautiful!
Just ... absolutely wonderful. One of the most stunning song, voice, song .. .. just blown away every time I hear this
He's got it! Period!
Beautiful Soul! Would love to hear him and Amos Lee together, old violin, ah their both incredibly soulful singer's, real! Rare these day's!
This song and performance are top-to-bottom brilliant, loved this track for like 13 years now. But you know that part that gets me? This is clearly a post-breakup song if you listen to the verses. This is about two people who stay friends/love each other, even after the romance is done, hearts were broken, etc. Definitely gets me in the feels, esp. since it came out early in my ex-wife (and still friends) and I'z relationship, and we used to love it back then, with no clue how prescient it would eventually become.
I love this song so much that it actually makes my stomach hurt.
God .. what a beautiful voice has this man .,.
I've just discovered him .. and now I'm in love...
Deeply ...
Men, take notes. If this isn't love, I don't know what is.
Stacy Steele Noted
+Stacy Steele If the men you know have to take notes, you know the wrong men.
+FlashgodStift You just might be onto something.
+Stacy Steele Women should take note as well. I am a man that feels everything. I have the curse that I love with every fiber of who I am. I love, laugh, and live a love song in my heart. Some women think it is a sign of weakness to see a man show emotion and even worse the men that teach other young men to not. I am a man that still believes in happily ever after.. As fairytale as it sounds
Jim Thomas You are correct Jim, this applies to women as well. You seem like a good man. Stay strong in your beliefs and keep on keeping on and don't let anyone change who you are. You sound like you know what's important in life, and that's all that truly matters. :-)
Happy that I have other;s who feel as I do about Ray. He is amazing! Absolutely PURE. Being pure, is a very difficult thing to be and to do in the world. He doesn't shove himself down anyone"s throat. He is a true artist in a unique way. I would have loved to grow up with him and be in his family. They must have been cool to turn out such a lovely beautiful man.
I love Ray Lamontagne!! his music is soft and relaxing to listen to!!
Was listening to this on a play list without watching, then sat down and looked to see it was a live performance! Holy crap! So good! Thought it was a studio version!
Shelter me !! I'm not much of a mushy type but this makes me want some good shelter!!
filmpje over Thomas de trein
+Evan Kampstra What
wow...speechless.
+Stacy Steele
I agree-i saw him play and for once i didn't utter a word until the end.....love him
what a voice!!!!!!
reaches directly to heart.
lovely.
one of the best singers of earth.
HIS PASSION THO!!!!! WOW!!! LOVE IT!!!
I saw him live about 11 years ago at Newcastle City Hall. No one would come with me as they’d never heard of him so I bribed my 15 year old to go and I swear she was rocking up the aisle to Three More Days. Loved it 😍
A voice like velvet, SMOOTH LIKE A GOOD WHISKY. PEACE BE WITH YOU MY FRIEND'S. 😎😎😎✌️✌️✌️🏴🏴🏴🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
🇺🇦✌🏽
I fall in love with Ray's genuineness while he sings.
I cannot get over this song. like everyone else here- how did I not hear of this guy before today!?! I will listen daily- and it will leave me in the best mood, such soul and heart bein poured out of his mouth.
you. will. shelter me. my love. and i, i will shelter you.
beautiful
so good... oh so good
I fell in love for the first time, head against heart, listening to someone else's beat, while listening to this song.
Absolutely love this song. Great performance so much talent.👍❤️
He has that beautiful voice that slides over your skin like a slightly rough caress; it dives down to the depths of your soul.
Ray is one of those singer\songwriters that touch his fans in such a way only to be described as beautiful. He puts so much of his soul & who he is into each song. He makes you feel as if he's talking about you & your situation or what life has put in front of you for the day. Absolutely Wonderful!!!
