[@MrDifffficult]

This one is off the charts, your feelings, and everything related. The goddess is still there, no matter what you think of her. Don't you feel emotionally attached at least?

[@germancalderon5073]

The sound of a truly GODDESS

[@breklein3338]

I don't care that people think certain songs are dramatic. I love the emotionality and its effect

[@Alex321PPP]

Oh my god, her voice + Sohn's production is just an outstanding combination. Feels like I'm melting

[@whenswinefly]

Omg the cinematography is ON POINT

[@ellieratcliff5707]

I am addicted to this song!! The beat is just so heavenly... I cant even

[@FerrariDMC]

She's got a very soft voice that makes her sound incredible.. Good song.

[@BajaHater]

It would be nice to hear this girl with Weeknd...top voice,top song!

[@soluxx2759]

+BajaHater Yess!! idk why they havent made it happen yet, they are both two artists that were made for each other, god i can only hope he collabs with her

[@darkskinbaddie5864]

Exactly what I was thinking. She sounds a lot like him too. It would be amazing

[@glowandtravel]

+BajaHater They tour together!

[@breezyxo98]

+BajaHater She went on tour with the weeknd a few years ago for the Kissland Tour

[@keriereeves518]

Nice

[@thesugarvenom4179]

People comparing this masterpiece to Rihanna's "Desperado", at least acknowledge that this song was released long before Rihanna's and it wouldn't surprise me if Rih was inspired by Banks. She's phenomenal:

[@PaniniWasteland]

As weird as it may sound. This song feels so dark and I love the way it vibrates my soul.

[@lokapikantex3]

Okay so divergent and that Victoria secret commercial got me addicted to this song

[@ezrealxshsh5460]

And The Originals soundtrack.

[@vickyaqd9016]

Why doesn't this video have more than 1 million views, the song is amazing and Victoria Secret saw that

[@sebastianmallar8666]

Jeffrey Alden only girls get periods

[@icksickyuck]

So badass, love this song. The base thumps & her voice soothes.

[@amatamaaa]

thank you rihanna for introducing me to this AMAZING artist

[@Aramazdkhatcherian]

Wow Rihanna knows of her?! Impressive! How come?

[@peytonhamann6407]

OMG IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SONG FOR SO FREAKING LONG SINCE IVE WATCHED DIVERGENT

[@amandamarques6819]

what part of the movie plays it?

[@thorleifurbjornsson7098]

Amanda Marques the part where she goes to visit her brother

[@sarakyoutube]

I'm sorry but this is a million times better than Desperado. No if ands or buts in my book. This song is so real it's hard for me to even listen to. That's when you know somethings real. It's almost too hard to even hear.

[@alexdavenport2615]

I loved this song before I ever heard Desperado, but that song is BOMBASS

[@emanuelatejerizo]

why u mentioned desperado? by rihanna

[@loveharrydaily]

They're not even comparable, really. Just the same instrumental.

[@user-il1kp4vl5z]

I feel u so much on this. this song speaks to my soul. its been on repeat since I found it

[@KONAROCK1]

I like both.. for different reasons. ..and there's no "better" in art. :D

[@charlottedrawspokemon3547]

Haha everybody's like "the longest ride brought me here" or "divergent brought me here" and I'm just over here like pandora brought me here😂😂😂

[@Mr.Luv-]

same good old pandora 😂😂

[@RebeccaMoorePhoto]

Me too lmfaoooo

[@normaalbarran2719]

Greys Anatomy brought me here 😂

[@jasminearellano4212]

cydney ramos same pandora also brought me here

[@Playgalrii]

Right!!!! Omg Pandora came thru with all her music I found out about her because I was on the alina baraz & galimitas station

[@MikeyJoJo6385]

reminds me of the weeknd especially when she says "Because it isn't the saaaame"

[@231Joshie]

SAME omg

[@Nullnvoiid]

Definitely

[@julietstapleton]

Lol I found this song on Pandora on Earned It Radio

[@gschroeder8751]

juliet bruhh found it on the longest ride and on VS ad

[@josephmorris7995]

juliet bruhh me too

[@Shauryauna]

Man ...the sound goes hard ..wouldnt be the shit without it ..love the track

[@sophiab.4224]

I heard this in some trailer and a commercial and I may have freaked out a bit..? Banks is getting so big agh!!

[@sophiab.4224]

I didn't mean it in a negative context, I'm happy for her.

[@birdart94]

Sophia B. It was The Longest Ride trailer wasn't it? Awesome right?

[@sophiab.4224]

Yeah, I think so!!

[@THGswiftieforever]

I was literally fangirling over my fangirling of Divergent when I heard this on Divergent and was like,"holy crap, I never knew Divergent had this song sjdflgxdnxkgvkv" Divergent is made perfect-ish for now, when my high hasn't come off yet from watching it ugh I had to wait so long for it to come out here in New Zealand

[@allipier7458]

i like the background humming. it sounds so pretty

[@BoyMeetsMoon]

OMG OMG OMG THIS IS A SOUNDTRACK FOR DIVERGENT MOVIE! OMG OMG OMG!

[@ho3wa]

I CAME HERE BECAUSE OF THAT LOL xD

[@BoyMeetsMoon]

I KNEW THIS SONG BEFORE THIS WAS A SOUNDTRACK FOR DIVERGENT JSJKSF

[@alexandriana793]

Thank you, Divergent, for showing me this song! I love this song so much!

[@oliviaann9586]

Hi! Would love if you'd check out my cover of this song on my channel :)

[@walkintruth01]

Yes I too was brought here because of the VS commercial. Not so much the bras and bottoms that captivated my attention rather how banks says "I don't want to say your love is a waiting game" gave me chills. Love it.

[@SanaSaleh]

The perfect song for a steamy summer night. Sounds like it's about a LDR which can be agonizing. Not recommended.

[@InfernoFlame99]

These days you don't need to sing.All you have to do is whisper to an instrumental and people think you're the deepest thing since the GrandCanyon.

[@blade8800]

lol

[@c8lingalemusica]

If you "whispered" to an instrumental track, you'd sound like this?! If so, maybe you just don't realize how talented you are!!!! Cuz not many people I know could come CLOSEto this......

[@josefinejoergensen9614]

Well, does it really matter how it's done? IMO; if the product sounds good, then screw however it's made. ;)

[@michaelhaydenbell]

All the horrible, shallow, vapid music out there today and THIS is the problem. Don't be a jerk-off, dude.

[@c8lingalemusica]

Agreed @my mom says I'm a champion! Go listen to "You Shoukd know Where I'm Coming From" by BANKS- And tell me your delicate whisper sounds like that, dude.

[@michelejusko]

Great video and song. The video really draws you in and truly fits the mood of the song.

[@arabellavelazquez1842]

Rewatching the 2013 VS Holiday Commercial brought me here and I'm glad 💯🙌

[@freyja2001]

Meee tooooo

[@KTBEverlasting]

This song stays on repeat. Very sensual and almost ethereal.

[@elizabethvillarreal4421]

So Glad "Banks" is finally getting the recognition she deserves, she is so talented, i remember when i first saw her live, opening for "The Weeknd" and i fell in love with her music right there and then, Happy that Victoria Secret nabbed her song for the Holiday Commercial, You know she got PAID!!!!

[@imKajsa-ns2ib]

I've been a fan of this song for so long, a good friend showed it to me :3. And when I heard it at the previews for Longest Ride I was like FRREAKIN OMG THAT MUH JAM!!

[@dagmarfranceschini]

B❤anks sounds so dark, she is phenomenal 😀! J'ai des frissons maintenant partout ...

[@alexandrajenx]

Am I the only one who's been knowing this song for years? Her music never gets old ❤

[@RetroSkreamerz101]

When what brought you here is the fact that you just love Banks

[@youshago1]

the longest ride!! and victoria secret. i love when i find good music from just watching tv/movies.

[@SuperGemini17]

same

[@frizzymoistrizzy]

I got chills when I heard this on longest ride

[@EccentricMadamViolet]

Ditto. I first heard this via the VS Fashion Show, instantly fell in love with it

[@annvalmoria8993]

***** lol me too

[@mary3rodriguez]

***** what? no...Grey's Anatomy played it back in November :D

[@EpicDinosaur862]

This song on some surround system. Love it.

[@samanthar1713]

THIS SONG ROCKS AND I LOVE HOW THE VICTORIA SECRET FASHION SHOW ALWAYS IMPRESSES ME WITH THEIR SONGS!!!!!!

[@dontwatchthat869]

YES ! This is the one I was looking for. I get goosebumps when this starts playing during Divergent when she goes to find her brother.

[@EvieTheStar]

this is highly addictive..

[@gagasgrande]

I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS SO FOR LONG

[@Rh1no1]

Ok so maybe I am a bit jealous of this beautiful and talented singer. I have to admit it! lol She's great. I'd love to meet her.

[@C00kie007]

Let's meet her together then, the song is perfection. Are you here from The Originals?!

[@Rh1no1]

Theliftingdutchman The Originals? No, I am not familiar with that. I landed here randomly and liked many Banks songs. :)

[@ogdollface6537]

Theliftingdutchman What Originals scene and episode was this on?

[@eclectica1]

I have met her, after one of her shows a few months ago. She is every bit as lovely as you might imagine her to be.

[@Rh1no1]

MrMrbeanscar HAHAHHAAHAH!!! :D

[@Zojaves]

I am addicted to her music, seriously. :)

[@bubblegumbitch8137]

I love this.... I could grip to this song and listen to it all day. This song's amazing.

[@critic00able]

The longest ride brought me here

[@DitzySoph]

Same I heard it in the longest ride trailer and I now I love this song

[@Joe_Brainer]

Divergent here.

[@janessasimmons6117]

Same! It made the trailer so much better

[@notravenclaw3127]

I brought myself here.

[@hannaharmstrong4342]

Divergent brought me here

[@BoredomBee]

Do you ever find a song so perfect for a fanfiction you're reading that you just want to shake the author and go, "LOOK AT THIS THING! LOOK AT THE PERFECTLY MATCHED BEAUTY OF IT!!!" Yeah, I'm gettin' that real hard for SakuraMinmino's *Plugged In* right now. It's pretty great.

[@ilikechicken1010]

For those who don't know, this song was featured in Divergent, a sci-fy movie about an after war. This song was featured on the part where Tris Prior walks in to the erudite building to meet her brother.

[@kiaramanigo1605]

Who the hell cares who "brought you here"...can't we just enjoy this magnificent song!?

[@syierarose5300]

Is BANKS getting the fame and recognition she deserves, finally?!

[@TheTryingFox]

the background 'haa haa' was stuck in my mind and j had to find this song. i FOUND it!!! through divergent playlist! i knew it was this song

[@kerry2553]

BANKS brought me here. :)

[@HeatherPonyweather]

I want her to do a song with the Weeknd! They would sound so beautiful together.

[@JackieGutierrezXO]

Agreed !

[@crappy.arianna7553]

Agreed

[@evapm85]

👏👏👏👏

[@chelszm]

True!!😲

[@loveharrydaily]

I would hope not

[@Mountainkingmusic]

That dragging base. Wow. Amazing.

[@bdbsl173]

I usted to cry so bad listening to this six months ago. It is horrible to be in a situation where you feel like you are waiting for the worst to happen and it usually does.

[@karlblakeman720]

radio need to play shit like this. fucking CLASSIC!!!!!!!

[@100fates]

I play this song whenever I change out of clothes - unleashing my inner stripper.

[@daleeps]

damn....

[@bellaboo1843]

100fates 😂😂😂😂 sameeeeee

[@Lucy_Aird]

Tbh Spotify brought me here and when watching Divergent, hearing this song I was just over there like ''OH MY GOD I KNOW THIS SONG''

[@TASHIYAHmusic]

wow she is amazing - I love what I hear

[@simonbolten6734]

THIS is the song from Divergent I've been looking for. Not surprised. Banks is pretty much amazing.

[@conwellkid]

This is fucking perfection.

[@ThatSoJennifer]

Why didn't they use this for Fifty Shades of Grey????

[@AmericanGirl661]

This singer will go to complete crap if she is used in that. Let Beyonce do that shit she's used to it. Fifty shades of some disgusting shit

[@akuchmadut6607]

they also used it in the originals and the 2013 Victoria secret holiday commercial

[@Scarlettlnz]

yeah, this one fits really good

[@ZulemaVillegas]

i totally agree with you!

[@lilacbeetle669]

***** AMEN! I'm 16 and I could write a better novel then that :/

[@LustfulRevenge]

For some odd reason this WHOLE song gives me a vibe I get from listening to The Weeknd.

[@stephanyguerrero1230]

They need to collab already

[@boobuilder8073]

You two make a good ass point two of my favorite singers

[@LustfulRevenge]

Yess!

[@pik4k3]

She toured with him!

[@tatianas5049]

Yes!

[@90insomniac]

Banks is probably my favorite female artist and she came into my life at the best possible time. All about that synchronization!

[@musicgoddess246]

I listen to this every morning, it makes me feel alive

[@annie3402]

What an amazing voice!

[@benkaart9601]

This would be good instrumental for a slow motion battle scene, with slow motion blood spraying everywhere. Or a Calvin Klein commercial, with slow-mo water dripping off of anyone and everyone.

[@amandalindsey9147]

It was the longest ride ever but im finally here

[@MartynThen]

People should stop comparing Desperado and This song.. Both songs are awesome and both artists in their own rights are amazing

[@Empressoftheflames]

I originally heard this on iTunes First Play but was so happy to see it on soundtracks like Reckless. Banks deserves success! Her work is really something.

[@Victorialovesmovies]

[Verse 1:] I'm thinking it over The way you make me feel all sexy but it's causing me shame I wanna lean on your shoulder I wish I was in love but I don't wanna cause any pain And if I'm feeling like I'm evil, we've got nothing to gain [Chorus:] What if I never even see you cuz we're both on a stage Don't tell me listen to your song because it isn't the same I don't wanna say your love is a waiting game [Verse 2:] Baby I'm thinking it over What if the way we started made it something cursed from the start What if it only gets colder Would you still wrap me up and tell me that you think this was smart Cuz lately I've been scared of even thinking 'bout where we are [Chorus x2]

[@jordanwashington1854]

'Divergent' brought me here. Love the full song though! :)

[@AlexandraJohnson]

This sounds like something that should've been in 50 shades

[@PUEBLOVISTA]

OMG! This is insanely amazing. Loved it.

[@WKADESIGNS]

She deserves all the views and praise she's getting. So tough to come by true talent these days.

[@jaylin4eva]

I don't even know how I got here, but I am glad I came. lol

[@ashlyn8016]

lol

[@gnonymouse]

If timberlake did this it would be everywhere right now.

[@Rahbiar]

I really really REALLY want to hear this in Timberlake's voice now.

[@rhythm077]

Rahul Nambiar geiiii

[@jailynshade3027]

The longest ride brought me here Tbh

[@ashlyn8016]

[@jailynshade3027]

[@cela6363]

I'm literally in love with this song, I can relate to basically every word she sings!

[@fabihamahmood5428]

This gave me the chills. Wow.

[@DRH7863]

Needs to be in 50 shades of grey movie!!

[@chickabowbow90]

Yes!

[@WeskerExcella]

Absolutely!!!

[@tannisquinn]

I totally thought of 50 shades too!!!!

[@SMARTERBEAUTY]

On repeat 24/7

[@Kat-in-CLE]

Yes, I did just hear this on the VS commercial. It's actually still playing as I listen to it here.

[@fuzzypants101]

this is the first song i heard from BANKS a year ago on spotify, and fell in love! This song has so much emotion and is so dark yet sultry

[@who511]

Im proud to say that as a kid i had great taste in music lol. And still do thats why im still listening to Banks.

[@nilu8878]

I just came across BANKS and I am not exaggerating I LOVEEEE THIS SO MUCH! She deserves so much more attention, this is more than good music it is INSANE

[@ClusterNation]

I brought myself here.

[@LolaLopes]

[@vlogsbysad9630]

same loving banks for ever

[@csillaabraham9692]

hahahahah yes

[@slatontx1011]

Why didn't they use this for the fifty shades of grey soundtrack or trailer. It's a sexy song! PS: I love the Beyonce song they used for the trailer too tho.

[@tylerbackler4678]

That's what I thought

[@c8lingalemusica]

Absolutely agree!

[@oliviaann9586]

Hi! Would love if you'd check out my cover of this song on my channel :)

[@toroyoko]

Couldn't agree more

[@tannisquinn]

Wow I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought this was soooo 50 shades

[@ChrisWMF]

My daughter has the best taste in music. She brought me here.

[@deeeaaa]

[@MarqusNaulls]

Divergent definitely brought me here. Reminded that part like 4 times to hear this song.

[@MtnLionFHL]

[@paradisea5492]

[@aurelius7778]

Seen her open for The Weeknd when he was in Chicago, and I can see the influence of the weeknd in her style/flow. Love her.
