How many hundreds, maybe thousands, of times has he performed this song? And every single time he still puts every single ounce of emotion he has into it. Just unbelievable
Absolutely.💛 Exactly what I was thinking and have always thought. Such a special distinct voice that whilst I've only heard a few voices 'similar'(and that's only a few), I've never heard any near 'identical' to his. Special tone, special voice texture, everything. that I've never heard anything in the universe close to replicating. Such a sacred artist.💖💖. Reminds me a bit of Will Young and how distinctly unique his voice also is..💛💛. very special. X🙂
@@brandonthede7452 It's like an actor that can't watch anything they're in because they find fault in the most minute details. Plus, everyone seems to hate the sound of their own voice.
Lol. Underrated if have been living under a rock. At one point he must have been one of the most overplayed artists on the planet. That doesn’t detract from him being amazing but like snow patrol he was played on an infinite loop for about 5 years. Amazing ? Yes, Rich ? Extremely. Talented ? No question. Underrated ? God no
@@JustFiddler Blunt said "the song 'Goodbye My Lover' is about a lifetime's worth of emotion, the fact that that relationship is over, and that life continues. And yeah, it's the most personal song on Back To Bedlam."
Love, love James Blunt My late husband loved his music Every vacation road trip James Blunt CD was the only one we listened to! Now every time I hear him it brings back memories 😢😊❤
I am pretty sure Jørgen, the winner of The Voice Norway 2022, would nail this song (they have somewhat similar voices) th-cam.com/video/X3ruKFDmChY/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/c1lDl00SE8A/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/IeAbaIvXGHk/w-d-xo.html
My mom was a big James Blunt fan when this song came out. Hearing him sing always reminds me of a nicer time in life when things were simpler. It gives me memories of my mom. She's still alive and well but his music will always have a special place in my heart for those memories it created.
Saw him as an opening act for Jason Mraz way before You’re Beautiful got so big. It was a small venue, and yup, became a forever fan. Such an amazing artist
It's very rare that we get to see an artist who sing so attached to the song..that you can really feel the song with pain, with joy..whatever the song is about. That what makes a "real" artist is all about internalizing the song, not just singing the song but feeling the song. 👌🙂
I don't understand why people don't like this song. It has a story. The story is heartbreaking. His voice is squeaky like he is trying not to cry. She must have meant everything to him. How can you not resonate with such loss and just say you hate this song. Artists don't do this anymore
Maybe people are like me and dont listen to lryics at all? I listen to music for the beats mostly and the vocals. Not to say that I dont like this but I dont care for the lyrics at all
He's a passionate and emotional singer and that's what makes him great cuz he feels every lyric whether it's good or bad he puts every single ounce of himself and everything he's got into into his music truly amazing.
@@bogdanst6018 Well for a man that doesn't like his own music he certainly knows how to draw an audience in. He lives down the road from me and I'd certainly have a knees up with him.
Amazing how he can bring out emotions from his music. Thought it was just me with "chase the monsters away" that hurt inside... found all over TH-cam how hard that song hits.
Such an emotional song, made even moreso by Mr. Blunt's outstanding performance & his "acting" (for a better word) the part. I hear this song, it re-rips my heart out, thinking about my late wife. Died years ago, but hearing this song brings the emotions back. She was, indeed, the one for me, as I hope I was for her.
I can see the emotions I feel like his emotions What a performance Thank you so very very much with gifting us all with your talent and your wonderful presence I 💜 James Blunt
The Gentleman is amazing. This song and several others of hi s have such powerful lyrics that they can make me well up and a couple will make me cry. Every time! Seen him a couple of times and are due to see him again at the end of July. Fantastic l live too.
James é simplesmente incrível, sou apaixonada pela entrega e pela voz dele, é lindo e emocionante como ele coloca sua alma nas apresentações e cara impossível não se emocionar principalmente com essa música que ele sempre canta com todo o seu coração
HE is so sweet and handsome. He used to serve as a Queen's Guard,,, He just started singing recently. He did not come from a musical family, the only song sung at his home was happybithday, and a few christmas carols. One day he just started singing, truly an original.
I'm a guitarist and into less mainstream music, Heavy rock, Classic Rock, Alternative and James Blunt is not a POP Artist he is just an artist who is extremely popular but do not compare him to those fake puppets who can't write their own names never mind amazing songs. His song monsters had this grown man balling my eyes out. His phrasing is exceptionally perfect at times. The way he delivers is great too. I've saw over 100 of Rock Metal Blues Rap artist's and honestly James Blunt is the best I have ever witnessed live!
*gifted* beyond mere words!! Love love James Blunt! I had the pleasure of seeing him in concert years back! He is an incredibly passionate, sincere performer in every sense of the word!! 🎶🎤🥰
I’m 38, my dads been my rock my entire life, a pillar of strength, can turn to him no matter what, over the last few years he’s beaten skin and bladder cancer, but he’s getting older and I’m become more and more aware that time is running out. He’s ill on and off with side effects from the bladder cancer, I went to his bed the other day and thought the tables are turning, he told me he’s proud of me and this song sums up my entire feelings right now. I’m struggling with the fact of life and meaning now. Just going to hold the times we’ve got left and hopefully get some more memories! This video has killed me so many times lately but I feel the need to keep coming back to it.
The guy is ex forces and do you know what he used to bring with him in his tank, a guitar. It was strapped to the side of the tank and he used to sing to his regiment to just keep morale up. The guy is a legend
If i was a judge in this performance, Iʻd get down from that seat and found somewhere in the crowd to watch from. Out of respect for his passion in his singing 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
How many hundreds, maybe thousands, of times has he performed this song? And every single time he still puts every single ounce of emotion he has into it. Just unbelievable
How ever much stick James gets, he is a great vocalist. He is also a bloody funny guy who doesnt take himself too seriously.
Yes, this dedication reminds me of Jacques Brel.
You only need to lose the wrong one once in your life.... That emotions never fades.
Not really. He’s acting
He is just brilliant ... class act ... one of the greatest we’ll ever see in our lifetime
There’s no way you could mistake that voice even if it was only the second time you heard it. So unique and emotional

Absolutely 😊
There is no second James Blunt voice, it is funny that this unique voice is always him.
Absolutely agree
He sings with his soul
1000 performances later, his eyes still well up - almost if tears could come out. That's powerful.
James Blunt is a very underrated artist, but clearly not by judges who clearly know class and talent when they hear it. Great performance
Underrated by a world that has lost the sense of beauty
Underrated???
@@mrsTraveller64 he calls his own music shit. I’ve never understood that.

After all those years he's still suffering when he performs it. What an Artist
makes you wonder who its about
...The Gift of Pain...
is there a sad story behind this song?
@@JustFiddler there's a sad story behind most songs
@@JustFiddler Blunt said "the song 'Goodbye My Lover' is about a lifetime's worth of emotion, the fact that that relationship is over, and that life continues. And yeah, it's the most personal song on Back To Bedlam."
Even the professional musicians in the background are watching in awe. What a legend!
after all these years, he still kills every performance of this song. one of the greatest songs ever
Love, love James Blunt My late husband loved his music Every vacation road trip James Blunt CD was the only one we listened to! Now every time I hear him it brings back memories 😢😊❤
Hummmm
Memories
Exact same with my mother and her late husband.. Except now when she hears him she breaks down. Poor thing.
😢💔
😭
😢
So emotional and so unique, there's only one person that that could sing that song like that and thats the man himself 👏👏👏👏
I am pretty sure Jørgen, the winner of The Voice Norway 2022, would nail this song (they have somewhat similar voices)

Sure
The only person that can make me nearly cry. So intense yet so emotional. Legend
Just watch "Monsters" by him. You will cry a river, I swear
Have you watched bambi ?
7 years on, and this song just hit me different.

@@_gr1nchh same for me.
I like the girl in the audience that was like "wait, is that James blunt?"... And as soon as he started singing she was "yep, that's James blunt"
I love his voice and all the songs that he sings. He’s on my favourites playlist :)
Hi Sandra, how are you doing
Love James blunt saw him live and wasn't really expecting much but wow he was fantastic
@lesley Hello,how are you doing? It is nice meeting you here.
The signature style of singing of every artist singers
Even if you close your eyes you'll still recognize them!!❤❤

Say what you like about James, but to pen songs that clearly resonate with so many is indeed a rare talent.
As others have noted here - no matter how many times he may sing a song, he puts everything into it.

so underrated.. the absolute raw emotion in his voice is amazing.
@nicola Hello,how are you doing? It is nice meeting you here.
Always makes me shiver with emotion
Seen him twice He brings something to the table
His song 1973 is one of the best songs ever written in my opinion. Love it. Love him
Omg I love 1973

Look at the faces and admiration in judges eyes. The look of seeing someone legendary
Love this song. It’s such a beautiful performance.
My forever favourite!Pure talent, touching in every verse!
Mano, essa música tem uma carga emocional absurda, vc visivelmente percebe a mudança na expressão de James quando começa e termina a música.
Verdade parece que ele vai chorar, e quase eu chorei aqui também kkkk
I absolutely love James Blunts voice.
Thank you Mr. Blunt for sharing your amazing gift with us. 🇨🇦🤗✌️

Can only think about Michael Scott listening to the preview of this song on repeat
