@@billyvi6807 allahu akbar in arabic means "god is great". frank considers his own love he worships a "god" in this sense. he says "dont curse me" because love, his god, has only brought him pain. now tell me where this is shaming a religion

Believe me or don’t but my friend works on movies and has been at places where jimmy fallon has been and he is genuinely always super excited about everything
frank is one of the most sensitive and talented male artists in recent years, the way he transforms his songs into poetry is special and rare, he needs to get back into the music scene urgently!
“this unrequited love” frank loves a man, but others hate for the love, the love is unrequited i didn’t think about it like that until this live version
I remember having this song on repeat in high school bc I couldn’t relate to anyone & I was suppressing my sexuality in fear of condemnation. 10 years later, & I’ve definitely come a long way. I came out & I’m so much more comfortable & secure with who I am. This masterpiece of a song holds a special place in my heart.
since the other person didnt explain, this song is about how religion makes people who like the same sex feel icky/wrong. "If it brings me to my knees" is a double entendre, one for prayer, one for oral sex@@beowulf_bateman
"Perfect live performances don't exist" Well, guess some people still not found this diamond. Frank is one of the most talented musicians over the recent years. Hope he drops some music in the future. Miss him so much.
Frank is one of my most favorite artists! Plz bring us more of your genius works of art. We been waiting and will continue to do so. If you're not in awe of this musician you don't know about Frank !!!
Lol you Muslim? I don't think so they done well sell the new Islam and Islamic phobias . I'm sure u never read the Quran im not telling you do it i just don't feel sad anymore about who says i was Muslim but bla bla bla and im sure he never read or know about Islam

I don’t believe you lol jk I feel that
Ayye yoo lol

lol same for him and giveon and Brent
its a pity so many people misunderstand this song. its not shaming ANY religion. what a beautiful song.
How would explain "he said allahu akbar , i said don't curse me"?

@@billyvi6807because the song is based off a real experience he had, he was talking with a taxi driver who was muslim and that’s what he said to frank
They can not have realized at the time how rare it’d prove to be to host a live Frank performance. Truly monumental lol
imagine being in the audience watching this? i’m so jealous.
This was like 8 years ago, no one really knew who he was or cared.
@@ejhdbegbeidishdj9358 true
Sooooooool fknnnnn jealous
What the hell is he talking about
@@MayberryMafia its a bad religion to be in love with someone who could never love you..
u know things are getting bad when ur on another frank ocean binge
You should comment this on every video
Literally me rn
yep
Me fr
FR FR
I would endure an entire Jimmy Fallon live recording if I knew Frank would be playing. That's how much I love this man
😂
It ain't normal how much I love this man without even knowing him in person
no same
It’s not. It’s creepy….seek help
nah bc id die for him w no hesitation
One of my favorite songs ...
That's a bad religion for sure.
man frank sounds the same as his studio recording what a talented man he is!!!
They are still mixing him live. You can hear it but almost just as good as the studio version.
Frank recorded blonde vocals on tape with 0 compression
Damn you pretty. Write me your Inst
Girl he's literally disrespecting our religion (islam) , i don't know why y'all acting like he's doing sum ,it's awful what he's doing rn
@@lilyrre6009girl literally nobody give 2 flying fucks
song better than yo religion cry somewhere else 💀
I swear no matter what this freaking performance always hits me dead in the chest.
Fr tho.
FR
Sadly we don't have many live performances of his on TH-cam
Fr
2024 and I'm back here. this song is so timeless I swear.
Not a fan of Jimmy fallons fake attitude towards everyone but I genuinely feel like he likes frank a lot…
He goes for that handshake lik "dude wtf was that, i heard you were good, but i didn't though you were that good"
i mean he's a showhost he's obliged to put on a fit because he can't straight up go and be blunt to a guest
@@wellmorza3467 read the first part ffs
Believe me or don’t but my friend works on movies and has been at places where jimmy fallon has been and he is genuinely always super excited about everything
I'm pretty sure jimmy fallon is just like this, and that's great. I see no point in asuming it's fake...? Even if it is, what difference does it make?

Purr
why did he quit?
@@snullefaahhr5236his brother passed away in a car accident and he’s been mostly quiet since
@@snullefaahhr5236he’s coming out with a new album maybe this year or the next
@@snullefaahhr5236He didn't quit, he's on a break after his brother passed in 2021
Man Frank had everybody in their feelings during his run lol
wow, that string section sent me into hysterical tears. so fucking beautiful.
Better than the album version imo. Honestly props to the sound person, they killed it.
9 years later, an HD version 😩🙏🏼
HD is too real for me
this ain't HD
“this unrequited love” frank loves a man, but others hate for the love, the love is unrequited
i didn’t think about it like that until this live version
It can also meant your love for religion but religion doesn’t love you back because you’re gay
The latter in part explains the former - we’ve all been colonized

You're a freak. Nothing else. 😪
You just ruined it for me lol jk jk
im happy you’re happy
Thanks for bringing this back on HD.
I have a deep crush on Frank Ocean, and this song is everything.
I have a crush too lol
@@IAmBaldSoWhat I'm a dude, indeed.
wojtyła x frank ocean stan
@@condimentking414 i dont think frank ocean likes men
@@Carlover19538 of course he does.
"Bad Religion" talks about a faiied relationship with another man. It says
"I can't make him love me"
i come back to this video atleast three times a month and i cry everytime
omg finally an HD version!
Talent, sensibility and honesty.
his voice is so beautiful i can’t even describe it
His tone is perfection, his vibrato, art; the emotion is spine tingling and the lyrics read like a poem. Others artists pale before this man
Channel orange is literally my fav album🥲 I can listen to this album whole day whole week…I love blonded too but I just like this one more😭😭
Jimmy Fallon is the only person in the world to have a channel orange vinyl😔
I have one I didn’t know it was rare till recently and it was like the same price as any other vinyl so it’s pretty cool
Holy fuck what a vinyl to have
@@gracerobinson1109 you have a fake one, there was never any official release
those are usually just printed album covers that he displays before performances not vinyls
I'm here for 2:42 - 3:23 ... Always hits differently.
this guy sounds just like he does on the record
Nah, he sounds better
So many emotions in this live performance. You can feel Frank Ocean’s pain.
dude just casually insulted a religion what tf does it has to do with his pain lmao
@@beowulf_batemantell me you don’t understand the song without telling me you don’t understand the song

never have i ever had goosebumps for 5 mins straight
i love him so much his voice is everything
his voice makes me feel some type of way
i just shed a couple thousand tears
10 years ago today, Frank Ocean gave us this iconic debut album🍊 with the mesmerizing song Bad Religion
????
This is the greatest song this stupid planet has ever had.
Agreed, one of the best
lmao this comment made me laugh so much
This is the stupidest song this great planet had ever to suffer.
What a cringe comment lmaoo
A Frank ocean tiny desk concert would bring world peace fr
Thank you so damn much for posting this in HD
I cannot listen to a single song of his without crying
even lost?
We need a tour from this man, with a full band and orchestra
I always end up right back here. Sad or joyous or indifferent. I LOVE THIS SONG AND PERFORMANCE 🧡🧡🧡
I loved that he watched the violinists have a solo, love Frank Ocean
This is my favorite thing in the whole entire world its so beautiful
still one of his best peformances ever imo
Just listen to how perfect his voice is whaaaat
"Perfect live performances don't exist"
Well, guess some people still not found this diamond. Frank is one of the most talented musicians over the recent years. Hope he drops some music in the future. Miss him so much.
lmao he’s not dropping
@@ratis9389and he will not
He mocked a religion how come cancel culture never do it's thing
@@Finxxer cancel culture us a lie
@@Finxxerwhen did he mock religion?
Imagine thinking you’re going to Jimmy fallon and instead witnessed one of the greatest solo performances of all time 💫
Now this is the original pitch
Frank ocean this Frank ocean that I’m dying I love him
there is no one like him.
Still here after Coachella when shit hit the fan im still a fan
HE GAVE US BILLE JEAN YOU THINK HE TOUCH THEM KIDS?
coachella is a joke lmao
I remember watching this when it aired as a kid. Had never even heard of him at the time, and 12 years later he’s one of my favorite artists
thank you so much
Frank is one of my most favorite artists! Plz bring us more of your genius works of art. We been waiting and will continue to do so. If you're not in awe of this musician you don't know about Frank !!!
And also if this man don't want to be destroyed so he should stop making songs against islan😒
I’m jealous of any that just randomly caught this live
Thank you!!! 😍❤️
this performance. it’s my religion 🌪️
watching this performance for the first time when I was 15 rearranged my molecules fr
2:41 IF IT BRINGS ME TO MY KNEEEEEEESSSSSSSS ITS A BAD RELIGION AHHHOWWWHAWWW
I’d do anything for another album
isn’t he dropping one this year?
@@237.zr9with the SZA drought flushed in the ocean, I guess people are anticipating a Frank Ocean album.

The vocals are unmatched
i love this man more than anything in this world.
This is one of the best performances ever
Hell no, still a great one tho
Love this performance!! ❤️❤️❤️😁😁
it’s crazy how some random unsuspecting people went to see jimmy fallon and ended up seeing a historic performance
Massive shivers all over my body from the very first moment he sang. Absolutely outstanding artist. 👏
when questlove hit the snare, i felt it.
What I would give to have the little string outro on the studio version
ThankYou
Man changes keys every other word and somehow it's amazing
this is the most spectacular performance of all time omg
Frank's got me for life!
I cant believe I got to see this in person 🙌🏾 Frank, you are one of a kind ⭐️
i love this man so much.
so jimmy just has a channel orange non boot legged copy in his possession?
It's just a piece of cardboard
3:14 my favorite part omg
frank ocean save me
Brilliant songwriting!
This song is beautiful I have no words
This Album was definitely one of the greatest. I've been waiting on him. Come on King 🤴 💙
I found an HD version finally 😩
The goosebumps this gave me will stay forever

as an old muslim who lost faith in my religion as i grew older, this song is beyond emotional for me.
Same, i slowly started to not belive in any religion 🤞
