[@farhiyomukoma1798]

Colors needs their own Apple Music playlist because their versions are always so much better than the original

[@Tippers94]

Well they have Spotify if you're interested. I was a Pandora fan but I subscribed just for the channel

[@blaugruen6889]

Farhiyo Mukoma vvvvvgcvxrgt .

[@mikel6966]

yeah the live version tracks really does have a different feel to them

[@jameshatucker3528]

AGREEEEEEED!! I'm always so disappointed when I go download the original. I always pout because I cant get the colors version

[@MrMuerteUnleashed]

@@Tippers94 But I dont recall them having the Colors versions on Spotify, just the original song from the artist

[@caughtintherhythm]

I met Goldlink at a clothing store I worked at in Venice. He was so warm, sweet, humble. He hugged everyone before leaving. So talented and real.

[@Gray-tb3yf]

Cmon man.

[@-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-]

[@PrettiestGemini]

I love hearing people’s positive interactions with celebrities.

[@KJ-je9pm]

Met him outside my school here in Auckland while I was on my break. He was walking by himself then I approached him and asked for a photo. We talked for a bit. He was cool!

[@1aquan]

[@matthewmontano9695]

What's great about him?

[@DeathHimself1000]

The man's sound is so smooth and polished, his tunes drag you in so easily. Listen to his album 'Malibu' if you want a taste, the thing is a masterpiece.

[@Keezus.]

R.a.w Wood the man is soul personified.

[@juice___box]

i literally cannot wrap my mind around how EXACTLY in sync this live performance is with the studio version. tf kinda supernatural voice control

[@emmaleahjones1495]

truee reminds me of a composer with his hands

[@miguelangelthomas5154]

Its called practice. You can tell he does it a lot.

[@kingslim2870]

It's already recorded. You would hear him take breaths.

[@matt-6197]

it's rare that people can sing a song live and have it sound identical to the CD version

[@ROCKJOE2012]

IMO that's how it should be, how is it that singers can't even sing? smh

[@Sumothief21]

matt - I saw him live in Copenhagen back in September - he sounds exactly like the studio versions of his songs when he is performing live. He has an incredible sense of calm while performing and his flow is on-point!

[@haydz5]

i like this version more

[@tonyk174]

Check out Bryson Tiller. I was skeptical, then I saw his show here in Berlin and he got me like "what the faaaaaaaaak"

[@AniqTheGreatKhotle]

He performed this song at AfroPunk Johannesburg in 2019/2020 and I lost my mind. Never knew his songs before then. But this always stuck with me since.

how is skin glowing so hard talk about melanin on point jhees

[@drfunk1986]

lighting, and it's on a digital set, meaning he like every other artist on this channel get's the digital treatment. Not saying his skin isn't that good, but it's like comparing someone in life, to what they look like on a magazine.

[@drfunk1986]

Faris Gebril never said he didn't, im saying the lighting and effects still boost it. Prove me wrong.

[@today2757]

Black Skin + Vaseline/Lotion = Love

[@ProErra]

I'm backing you on this one. I saw him twice in 2016, once in February and another in December as he brought in the New Year for us in little old New Zealand. His skin is on point at all times.

[@heymynameisflynn]

drfunk1986 proven wrong kiddo

[@tripcrystal4330]

He's been a standout for almost a decade. It's hard to tell exactly when it will happen, but within the next few years he'll finally have the spotlight.

Can't really tell the difference between this version and the other one. fair play it's impressive!

[@ionaskate]

Ikr??

[@alwayshungry1751]

Yeah his vocals sound better louder on the hook IMO

[@ritejert]

His voice pops out more in this one. The other one the ladies are the main sound you hear in the chorus

[@peterfarr9591]

I agree his voice sounds better in this one. It's more full and rich. It sounded to me like they set the highpass filter too high on his vox in the album version, leaving it a bit on the thin side

[@austinq3151]

Can't tell that this is better? 🤔

Girl you're gone now And oh baby Don't call me, don't call me no more Girl you're gone now And oh baby Don't call me, don't call me no more Went back to the homeland Had to tell the niggas what I did in your hometown Everybody know we probably woulda made it last But there you go, started tripping never hit me back Real nigga went back to the pimping Started getting groovy with the women I was hitting Got a gold chain and a nose ring And a new watch, no tick but I always do time, yeah Black boy with a black fade, yeah Got mad when you did things You was fucking and you did dirt too We was talking but you never hear my phone boom Moved up and I feel good shit Roll palm trees and I made a hit for ya Billboards around the city with your face on it But they ain't never really know bout what you been through Stay dancing where the hoes at, huh? Why your homies gotta go down, huh? I ain't trip when I see you I would dance at a show back in Feb You trip but we don't talk much Girl you got me fucked up Real nigga gotta get it when he fucked up Fake niggas like a new man Just a little side joint Always been a side joint Alright joint Girl you're gone now And oh baby Don't call me, don't call me no more Girl you're gone now And oh baby Don't call me, don't call me no more Girl you're gone now And oh baby Don't call me, don't call me no more Girl you're gone now And oh baby Don't call me, don't call me no more

I fell in love with the live version. I found it better because we can hear both voices at the same level in the chorus here, which is different from the official version where the guy's voice is a bit less loud so the effect made by the mix of the two voices is less powerful
