2024 and song still 🔥

[@michaelc2480]

I love this song so much. I happened to find Allen by accident and now he is one of my favorite artist. He's a soulful, soulful, dude.

[@PRESTO5796]

Try listen to Emily Estefan’s version of this song, in her bedroom👍🏾‼️She has an amazing voice & her guitar playing is supreme! She plays different styles of guitar ‼️She’s a young talented musician, singer, plays drums, & graduated from the prestigious BERKLEE SCHOOL OF MUSIC IN MA!

[@CliffDavis-b6g]

Bad boy😅

[@aguy149]

The first thing you should do after listening to this. . . . hit replay.

[@erniegamboa5609]

Thank you Mr. Stevie Wonder for influencing this young man... He's got a bright future making great music.. Stay true Allen.. Peace..

[@alistairhilton6302]

Course!! He’s the fucking mantis 💯 love ya Allen. Love all the way from NZ 🌿

[@24wanye]

You got that one wrong mate.. it's wrong to compare.. allan stone was influenced by allan stone..

[@erniegamboa5609]

Recognizing influence and making comparisons are two different things "mate".. here are Allen's own words "“I picked up the guitar when I was about 12”, he continues. “My pops taught me a few chords. At first, I started writing really corny songs for the neighbourhood girls. Then I hit 15, 16, and fell in love with the soul tradition. I started singing along all day every day to Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway, Gladys Knight, D’Angelo, Soulchild. Never took any music classes, never had any formal training. Just sang and sang to these beautiful voices.” ~Allen Stone If you can't hear Stevie's style in Allen's voice then you either don't know anything about singing and music or you're just plain tone deaf.

[@robertroberson1567]

@@erniegamboa5609 bro you murdered him

[@calebhuckel5973]

Amen! To that!

[@D6EH]

I’ve seen him live several times, and Allen is always fantastic. it’s probably my second favorite recorded/video performance, behind Give You Blue @ The Paramount. My favorite live performance was when he covered Superstition at the Crocodile, for the “adult prom”. I don’t understand why he isn’t a superstar, the guy is amazing.

[@docjames6902]

This guy would never have to perform. His song writing alone is at the highest level. Not only musically, but his messages are powerful and worded in ways that make language an art. Those who call yourselves poets should recognize.

[@docjames6902]

Lucky you Tonya! I love his story, his songs, and his incredible love of music; not to mention his attention to his fans. I've hoped someone like him would come along and put music back on track. I've been a full time musician for 25 years, performing and recording and I've been depressed at what had become of the industry but this young man has showed me there is still hope! What a great representitive.

[@zacharycollett5456]

dude, this sounds like 20 others songs I have heard before. It makes me sad that people think this is good songwriting. He took a chord progression from another song and wrote his own words.

[@zacharycollett5456]

Tonya Ballman Listen to Tera Melos (or really most math rock bands) or The Number Twelve Looks Like you and tell me that it isn't completely original. I will post a video of the show I played over this past weekend and tag you in it. There is a TON of music that is brand new. There are influences yes, but it isn't regurgitated like this.

[@zacharycollett5456]

Tonya Ballman And a question. If you found someone who copied the painting Starry Night with a couple of differences and it was for sale, would you still call it art? Or someone trying to make money?

[@MaChKuLjA]

Tonya Ballman Those are the exact examples that I thought of, reading through his comment :D I agree, this is an amazing song, and Allen Stone is a great musician. I uploaded most of Monk's work btw :P

[@arijbd]

You know it's that good When justin Bieber himself post this and Literally BEG people to listen to it ! Good job Allen !

[@kellydoan2628]

Oh my gosh I was thinking of the same things

[@vanessasmdt]

True and he's right it's amazing 😊👍

[@jiyandervisch2809]

Damn ur fine

[@MaScErRaDe95]

Scherin Dervisch pls stop objectifying women

[@compstorage]

this is literally the most jamming shit I have heard in months

[@carolinatavares6430]

10 yrs later KZbin brings me back. Thank you so much algorithms!!

[@feloniuspunk7078]

Been following allens career for ten years and this is still his best video imo

[@bradenmcalister4791]

This or unaware live from the basement… both are just insane!

[@bigchunguz3195]

The vocals from unaware live gave me goosebumps! Bro's voice angelic fr fr

[@atillakile2716]

This is such a Great Song thank you so much Justin

[@jelenatovarnicki2531]

💪👏✔

[@leilagomez1936]

I know right @Atilla Elik

[@victoriagonzalez1610]

Yes,yes it is.

[@AUGUSTALLEN28]

Why would you thank Justin,when Allen Stone wrote it?

[@sirsnowz8334]

Thank you so much Allen Stone*

[@luvmota2085]

Justin told us to listen to this and honestly, I don't regret it. YOU ARE REALLY AMAZING.

[@Antoinebech]

Oh my god .. I missed my click on another video and now I just found my new favourite song

[@mildredwilliams8107]

Better late than never. I'm so glad I listened to this song in 2022!👍

[@1AlterEgo2]

Why doesn't all music sound like this?

[@adrian3865]

allot of good artists arent signed to the major record labels, because its too much debt and loss of privacy. so its good to share.

[@rachealmkandawire130]

It would be boring if all music sounded like this... But this is very beautiful I love it

[@trixiebreslin4786]

His voice surely takes me to a special place.

[@MelissaMcCheezy]

I broke a guitar string trying to tune my guitar to play this song. This is how much respect I have for Allen Stone. I'm not even mad.

[@lewismoore6432]

It's just two steps down from normal

[@stefdewildt8562]

But how do you break a string when u downtune hahah

[@Ozgood23]

I saw this guy sing with a band in a local chattanooga tennessee bar. He was hanging out and the band playing saw him in the crowd and asked him to sing a song with them. They did "let's get it on" by Marvin Gaye. It was awesome.

[@ParkerRettke]

I dream of having this kind of talent.

[@reNINTENDO]

I don't know man... your stuff is pretty damn good. At the very least you don't need to be sleeping very deeply.

[@zacharycollett5456]

This songs like a John Mayer copy with a higher range voice. That's not talent, he's just riding a money train. Talent is making music that doesn't sound like anyone else.

[@zacharycollett5456]

Mike Patton. That's talent. Or Tera Melos' Nick Reinhart.

[@kanklenoankle]

Zach Collett you mad bro? lol show me one song where this song sound like john mayers. this guy has talent and you just mad

[@zacharycollett5456]

Kevin Lee I am mad, but not because this guy has talent, but because people defend him for having a bubblegum overused john mayer, gavin degraw sounding voice. I shit music like this out no sweat. I have before, and I got great responses. But it's just too boring and I feel like I'm selling my soul for a dollar. But, to answer your question, look up "Heart of Life" by John Mayer. It's basically just a better version of this song.

[@JT_Trys]

This remains my favorite video of all time

[@paigesherwood5745]

Been a fan of Allen Stone since Unaware :) He's one of my favorite artists. Can't believe people are just now discovering him. It's about time!

[@apocalypse487]

Just discovered him 😅

[@anybodycanart]

The Voice brought me here, love the vocals, great song..awesome vibe!

[@Timboolin]

dude thats freakin crazy..... the guy said allen stone was one of his influences and adam was like yea i tried to sign him... i checked it out asap and i cant believe what ii was missing

[@anybodycanart]

timboslice513 I know !!! ;) Interesting how he chose not to sign with a high influential celeb like Adam, interesting. I musician that wont be bought or compromised maybe???good for him.

[@Ronyea22]

timboslice513 same here

[@anybodycanart]

***** Great minds think alike ;}

[@Timboolin]

i wish Allen would make some more videos !! What songs have you guys been listening / like by him ?

[@fafafagat]

I took a plane over the stars It didn't get me very far Cause all my problems, they follow me I flew to the moon But it wasn't far enough away from you Cause all our problems, they follow me And every night, I close my eyes And all my troubles fade And every morning when I rise I'm just sleeping in this bed I made One million times inside of my mind I have justified, baby But all my problems still follow me And I discovered a way to cleverly avoid the blame But all my problems still follow me And every night, I close my eyes All my troubles fade But every morning when I rise I'm just sleeping in this bed I made I can't outrun the pain, oh Should have faced these demons as they came, yeah And what I wouldn't trade To make some room in this bed I made Cause every night, I close my eyes And all my troubles fade But every morning when I rise I'm just sleeping in this bed [x2] I'm just sleeping in this bed I made

[@caseywalker1714]

One of the most appropriate songs ever written

[@brianjjohnson1977]

Thank you

[@misstery5942]

I wish I could sleep without a pill and waking in terror

[@bicooo1]

I love that moment you realize you've found a great artist with soul

[@krc1989]

Been listening to this for 10 years and will for at least another 10

[@uncleeasy1438]

Thank God for music. And thank God for musicians like Allen Stone. Perfection.

[@anthonycavuoto1719]

One of the best for sure.

[@adussault10]

Hey Allen Stone, stop being so perfect at music. You're making the rest of us look like fools.

[@flavrusu7]

Doesn't matter who shouts this out. It's a piece of art. Thats what matters

[@Iesha4]

2023 and I still love this song and Allen Stone ❤❤❤

[@cutevirgo1996]

He sang that so effortlessly and so beautifully. P.S. I can see why Justin connected so deeply with this. Justin has done some things in the past and no matter what, his mistakes will always follow him, especially with everyone throwing it back in his face. It really made me feel even worse for him. Anyway, I'm glad he introduced me to this amazingly talented guy 😊

[@SpencerSteelMusic]

Raw ass talent. This is perfection

[@ayluz_]

OMG this is actually really good, love it. (yeah, Justin sent me here)

[@thalia2580852]

i feel like at least 44,000 of these views are from me alone...so good

[@oliviamarshall7342]

Thalia Carstens me too❤

[@jadegriffin1283]

lol I'm at atleast 20,000 myself lol

[@Rosslyn44]

This mans voice is so soulfully beautiful. Damnnn!!!

[@Conquerurfears]

First of all: Allen, god you are good man. Beautiful song, amazing vocals and you really throw your soul into it. Lastly: YES if it was not for Justin I would not have seen this video but please guys.. this video is about Allen and how amazing he is. Please just support him and comment about his work and STOP posting that Justin send you because frankly no one gives a fuck and yall make us look stupid and obsessed. Thanks c:

[@filequine]

ConquerUrFears AMEN! I didn't come here from Justin. I've known Allen for a while now but seriously. These JB posts need to fucking stop. No one gives a FUCK.

[@lujainrawashdeh8501]

Okaaaay we didn't actually mean to offend or sth we love both of them wth man!

[@SofiaSophie]

Sounds wonderful Thx bieber

[@HKlova91]

Bought his album because of this video. There's just something about his voice! Not to mention how talented he is with that guitar! The music industry is in need of a true talent like him!

[@MrJviner1]

At least as it pertains to KZbin. I'm...for lack of a better word, bewildered. As to how very often (( in my personal opinion )) the most original and talented artist are in fact, the very same ones, we know little or anything about. I'll put it like this, every time I stumble across an artist such as Allen Stone. I see it as fates way of telling me, I've been wasting entirely too much time, listening to ((compared to this) total bullshit. Top notch talent my friend. Thank you for sharing it in a place myself and others would eventually find.

[@piperpilot26]

There are many reasons and theories as to why this happens. I've been a music connoisseur for many years now. Seeking out some of the finest form of the art is what I enjoy doing. What I've come to realize is that music is much like food. It's far easier and more convenient to go to a McDonalds or Dunkin Donuts than it is to say, try and find a family owned 4 star restaurant or café. People simply don't want to be bothered with searching out quality music. They just want to flip on the radio and listen to what ever is presented to them. Also, a taste and recognition for good music has to be developed over time, much like a taste for a fine wine. This constantly changes over time. Easy listening music, such as pop, is specifically designed with one purpose in mind. To sell, and to spread as fast as possible. That vast majority of the music that is presented to you is also designed and marketed for teens and young adults. The main selling point has nothing to do with the actual quality of the music itself, but the persona and lifestyle of the "Artist" that is "performing" it, which from a business perspective makes sense seeing as the majority of teens and young adults don't have a developed musical ear. Asking a kid to tell you what is good in terms of music would be like asking him his or her opinion on what the best chateauneuf du pape is. The industry sees this, and thus keeps churning out shit.

[@bcorgi90]

agreed man.

[@noahloe5501]

John V. Amen.

[@williedewer962]

John V. 👏 Well said

[@bwillard8]

Well said

[@deannamariefabiano4184]

who cares if you're here watching because of Justin, this guy has talent and deserves the views! Focusing on the video I just want to say that this is amazing and your voice is pure. Keep it up!!!!

[@thalia2580852]

Every time I revisit this video (which I do on the regular) there are more downvotes... who on earth are you people, please reconsider your life choices. YUS goosebumps EVERY DAMN TIME

[@kimrojas8712]

Justin needs to get the KZbin app instead of using it on safari

[@HelenAndBianca]

he doesn't even have the app that brought him to where he is today. that boy😂💜

[@denica2041]

That is exactly what I think lol

[@kevinbladimir1998]

Nice. You really hear the Stevie Wonder influence.

Stevie and a little John Legend

[@NickDyrbye]

This is still such an amazing performance. I’m in love with Allen and this song. Damn it’s good! 🙏🏼❤️

Im here because I have been listening to Allen stone for years I don't need some one to tell me what good music is . How he is not famous yet I'll never know !!

[@PlaguesPosies]

The more I listen to this, the more I love it. And I'd say I've listened to it well over a hundred times by now 😂😂💕

[@micaelabattelino]

Your voice is remarkable. This is heaven

[@ThruTheLukingGlass17]

Heard about this guy on The Voice. He's awesome!! I'm a fan.

[@MaChKuLjA]

How come? :) Did some singer reference his work, or what? Anyhow, If possible, provide a link pls :)

[@MurphDawg4767]

[@normpeterson5137]

I'd cut off all of my limbs with a butter knife to be able sing like that.

[@GilGuerraIII]

You’re not him. Sing the way YOU sing! If you have the gift, play and sing your ass off till it makes you feel it!

[@MTD369]

I'd do the same

[@jaimepowers1758]

[@Eric-hz7ei]

Same here. Of course someone else would have to play guitar then

[@celsodasilva3317]

I'd cut off my wee wee

[@nrn21]

It's cool if you're here because Justin brought you here, but that doesn't mean you have to tell everyone that you're here for that reason. When I scroll through the comments and see that there are hundreds of girls making the same post it's kind of offensive because as an Allen Stone fan I think that he should be getting more recognition than hundreds of thousands of views and then another hundreds of thousands of comments about Justin. Not trying to hate, just saying that maybe the comments should have more to do with Allen Stone and less to do with an instagram post by Justin Bieber.

[@UB40er]

Noah Nichols Well listen,This is a very good song.I never heard about Allan Stone,but I'm fan now.And yes,because of JB...

[@hamzaahamed5599]

Thank you man!!!! This is exactly what I was trying to say

[@nrn21]

swaggy GIRL BB I don't know why you're mad. I wasn't bashing anybody. I was just expressing a thought that maybe more comments should be about Allen's talent rather than Justin's instagram post

Just a blanket for my heart ❤️

[@darkval69]

This is a bit old but still listening and watching to it till now and forever. Just raw and superb..Beautiful

This is good music.
