James Blake - when the party's over (Billie Eilish Cover)

[@podetalco]

James Blake is like Midas of the music. Everything he touches turns gold.

[@raphh11]

Dude it was already gold before he touched it tbf

[@valonmuhadri6284]

Ricardo Amorim fucking AGREEEE🙌🏽

[@valonmuhadri6284]

I‘m a Fan Since I heard him the First Time🎼🌟🎼

[@Rjmc19]

I already loved the song.. but sung by him it shoots me even higher

[@johnsinclair6170]

Every time he remakes a track, it’s better than the original.

[@max_mittler]

he may have millions of hits on his songs but I still feel he's one of the under rated musicians of our generation. Absolutely SOULFUL performance.

[@twoonthewall]

Was reading an article about the bands and payments for views on you tube. The crandberries got approx $100,000 for about 1 billion views! James is probably not making that much from his views. He needs to tour!

[@tedbest2890]

James Blake is anything but underrated 🥰

[@mehrnazghazizadeh484]

Yeah that's the problem, the world is going after commercial songs which are like copy pastes🤦🏻‍♀️😭

[@stambomuc]

James Blake love since ever

[@danielarg6179]

okay, my spotify is waiting for this version

[@SebastianIsla]

please, we need that

[@nurulafifah96]

🙌

[@Seb_An_Art]

Pleaseeeee

[@eastw1nd]

3 months later :(

[@simplyshaye777]

Mine too😭😭

[@bigwoke5956]

THIS IS WHAT I WANTED SINCE THAT CAME OUT

[@simonedgbaston]

❤

[@starzlight45]

I said the same thing! This cover was meant for James Blake

[@Layne-iv9nl]

#BigFacts🙌🙌

[@PiratAndRo]

When I first heared that Song by Billie I would have bet that it was a cover of a James Blake Song!

[@kecojune6857]

Saaaaame

[@sevsabril]

It is time for James Blake to collaborate with Finneas.

[@user-th6rh8zp3t]

Sebastián Abril why? james runs circles around finneas as a producer

[@arbitermatt]

@@user-th6rh8zp3t James is better when he's covering someone else, like some sort of Anti-Bob Dylan. Finneas creates a different kind of arrangement that I find more appealing personally.

[@graceelena6832]

OMG YES

@@arbitermatt Lol who is Anti-Bob Dylan?

[@theshoes7488]

Vojech he was sayin James blake... meaning bob Dylan only does bob Dylan.... he was saying he enjoys james blake when he’s not doing James blake. God I’m so fuckin depressed. Good luck guys.

[@TedHolmwood]

he plays piano with such grace, it's just so effortless for him

[@joemca7917]

tedsticle I think he’s classically trained

[@victorguittard7525]

he is one with the piano

[@kasperjensen1218]

You could quite easily learn that too, what he is playing isn't hard at all

[@cjjones258]

Never heard a cover from James Blake I didn't like

[@victorguittard7525]

oh so true

[@HelloSpyMyLie]

I always thought this song sounded like a James Blake song

[@KacperPpp]

I believe Finneas cited James Blake as one of his sources of inspiration/influence but I may be wrong x

[@veselgana]

Me too! I even thought he wrote it for her...

[@sahilcmr]

@@KacperPpp They did.

[@DoartYT]

xD

[@ashleyrogow]

actually in this version I think it sounds exactly like something bon iver would write

[@Zelgaro]

I swear he starts adding his own chord at 2:27. He does it a few times, it sounds so sick

[@blakeada999]

It's an eb7 chord

[@HyenaFox]

It's an Eb7, as someone below me mentioned, which is borrowed from a different key because Eb is not in the key of A, the key that this song is in.

[@tommusik5863]

@@HyenaFox The song is in E. Each phrase in the verse just starts and ends on the 4, which is A. James plays the song in C, and the chord in question is a F#7 with a b13 - which he substituted for the 6 minor. So if he'd have sung it in it's original key it would be an A#b13

[@SPLEclipse]

This could also be referenced as a "line cliche", where you drop (or ascend) by half steps to the resolving chord. That's the way I hear it at least.

[@tommusik5863]

A line cliche is when one notes moves against a stagnant chord, also sometimes called c.e.s.h. (chromatic embellishment of static harmony). He's voice leading through the chords (more than one note is changing), very similar to the original piano part - just using more color / getting outside of the triads for the I,IV,V,vi,ii chords. I liked the part at 3:01 where he seemed to crank the "esss" sound from his voice and pan it right. Maybe that's just the way the mics picked it up... sounded cool.

[@alexanderkeithjohnson2372]

This is everything you want from a cover. He captures the spirit of the original while passively inserting his own soul into the song. That exchange between spirit & soul is the best you can expect from an artist.

[@fried_tacos1587]

Would love really to hear them do a duet, I think their voices would contrast one another in a great way but I also think James Blake can duet almost any artist and it be a master piece

[@collizma]

We need a Billie Elish and James Blake collab. I'm sure they're already working on that

[@vegannoodls3168]

exactly im patiently witing

[@ta-yd8wf]

🦗🦗

[@TheOAFKing]

I don't know why I stopped listening to James but obviously I need to get back into it. This was beautiful, that angelic voice needs to be heard by all!

[@wesleyimschoot7597]

His latest album is amazing. Def worth a listen.

[@njux1871]

That's me right now. I'm sorry I was away, James.

[@zxzxmatheus]

I dont like his latest efforts, but his new song you're too precious is amazing

[@caspersneep6183]

That tasty chord at 2:45 after that high note

[@bluebaconjake405]

It's such a James Blake chord lmao

[@piotr803]

Yeah, I think he borrowed from mixolydian mode. Sounds ace!

[@omninuss6847]

I thought I was the only one who loved that! There’s so much emotion in that small change

[@jeromedavid9106]

Don't you know I'm no good for you? I've learned to lose you, can't afford to Tore my shirt to stop you bleedin' But nothin' ever stops you leavin' Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that Don't you know too much already? I'll only hurt you if you let me Call me friend but keep me closer (call me back) And I'll call you when the party's over Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own And I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that Yeah, I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that But nothin' is better sometimes Once we've both said our goodbyes Let's just let it go Let me let you go Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that

[@qusansue]

*I've learned to lose, you can't afford to*

[@lucatinley4074]

There are very few voices like his, nevermind the incredibly tasteful accompaniment, just amazing.

[@JosephGervais]

James Blake easily has one of the best voices of this generation. He will go down as one of the best of his time

[@Hanky7c9]

Didn´t knew I needed this version

[@lu_be_lurking]

Okay now James, this flex was unnecessary. MY HEART!!!

[@vongaisibanda8669]

We deserve a whole album of covers from James Blake :( we deserving !!!

[@StefAmadeus]

Your vocal range is out of this world!

[@corestudy2640]

James, I'm a big fan and I listened to your Vincent cover everynight before I sleep during my depression days. And I still listen to em it's beautiful and thank you for doing what you do. This cover is everything, your voice is everything. Please cover more songs. I love you!

[@dylanedward2743]

I am about to have my shower, I lighted up a candle and I saw this.... My night could not have started any better. Thanks James for your head voice oh and simply your artistic vision. You have such a way to touch the piano and make music. You want us to feel every single note ....

[@maharajaneela]

Shower + candle 👍🏼🖤

[@NateCConcerts]

James Blake's voice consistently drips like molten gold, never knew I wanted this cover but it makes perfect sense!

[@andilengcizela]

Jesus. Well... listening to this just caused me to take a beat for myself on an otherwise hectic afternoon. I appreciate the upload. Amazing, as always, James Blake.

[@musichao]

How many chords do you know James ? Or should I say is there any chords that you don’t know?

[@theoriginal1971]

My favorite male artist covering a song of my favorite female artist. I’m in tears

[@RedditGrapevine]

James blake: all I need is one take and a piano. Thank you and goodnight (until tomorrow when u watch this again)

[@carmenishere]

You just get better and better with time.. like a fine wine 🍷

[@marianar782]

Billie and James have been a huge part of the soundtrack of my life for the last months, they are the future.

[@AlannaMacree]

Amen ❤

[@niejajordan]

I pray they actually collab one day

[@KalElKent1501]

I remember hearing James Blake for the first time back in London in 2010. I was doing an internship in a DJ booking agency and my colleague made me listen to Limit to your love. Since than I have been a huge fan. Saw him in Montreux Jazz Festival, it was magical..Come back to Switzerland dude @jamesblake

[@mrmushin1]

Great introduction to him

[@ItisMoody]

I hardly ever like covers better than original songs, and never do I like a male cover of a female's song, but oh my God how this is above and beyond better than the original version!.. Wow, man, just wow!!!

[@piotr803]

James Blake is the only singer that can do Billie's songs justice. All the other covers are just singers belting out and screaming and therefore missing out on any subtlety. Well done James! Such a moving cover.

[@foxxtgther971]

I don't know this gentleman and this is the first time I've heard this song and I am in tears absolutely Beautiful.

[@Taibshe]

This is what was missing. Love them both so much.

[@JMB428]

Amazing cover. Also props to Justin Vernon for these vibessss in general since 2008.

[@wgo523]

Lol yes Justin Vernon invented singing and piano

[@SelmaHLubis]

* open youtube while doing a self-quarantine * found this on my recommended section. 0:05 : feel so blessed already.

[@BoyMarvel18]

James Blake is the mascot singer for people with depression and anxiety and need that sweet release

[@qaziraza2]

Oh plz Blake plz give me a heart you'll make my day..I have been going through alot and lost alot of people I'm desperate and empty inside but when I listen to your songs I feel joy and hope everything will be fine...thank u dear.

[@kittykat490]

i almost cried when i saw the title. This is all ive wanted.

[@NekaIvana87]

I always find it kind of a bummer when a cover is even better than the original... But with James doing it, it couldn't be any other way. ♥️

[@marone0324]

Didn't realize how much this fits Blake's style

[@nf4702]

I’m not sure if this took something out of me or put something in me, but I feel so balanced now. James, james, james.

[@Mmxxaamm]

Okay now this WAS a Billy Eilish song Ps.: I want to get into that record collection SO BAD

[@aviengeeratz989]

waitt, who? Who’s billy LMFAO BILLIE BILLIE BILLIE BILLIE come oneee

[@first1breath]

Amazing how he can reach notes that high! I'm in awe. ❤️

[@rachelsteppig8569]

can you imagine a collaboration between them? pure magic

[@junedasilva5719]

Goose bumps..... You've mastered you art, this is beautiful

[@BarisCeylanli]

Songs Mile High and when the party’s over are two of my most recent addiction nowadays.. and this is all i could ask for.

[@sirenthewolf8315]

Mile high is so under appreciated

[@ideigenerale]

I have goosebumps whenever I hear his voice!

[@jacklipp8995]

it takes truly beautiful - hauntingly beautiful - music to both completely ruin and make my day at the same time. being embedded with true sadness, but at the same time, feeling so blessed to be able to hear what I’m hearing. James does this every single time.

[@Dwabtit]

This is ofc amazing. I’ve been on a journey for a male cover to find an exact imitation of her singing style. I just wanna see if a male can do it. That song is extremely difficult for a male to match her style

[@jamesrivas6394]

He's stretching the vocal high's a little but I have to give this guy all the kudos he deserves.One the most soulful singers of our age.He knows exactly what he's doing and he's moving you with his great style of singing.

[@ninwilliams8081]

The only Billie cover I’ll ever accept 😍

[@Marek-zf9lt]

Naw Lewis Capaldi also done a gorgeous one

[@apolloaxis]

Chase Eagleson's is good as well.

[@thekuuu]

Cub Sport did a very nice one on triple j

[@marilana6850]

gavin james's cover of this song is great too tbh

[@mindaugaskliukas8667]

Just wow! I don’t know the original, but, man, this performance is incredible. The control over everything - the voice and the 🎹. A genius stroke, James! Stunned!👍

[@DonnyJ]

Simply incredible. I dream of making a song with James one day!!

[@ricog8047]

Either him or Bon Iver. That's the musician's dream!!!

[@Theheartless99]

3 years later I’m here to tell you to keep chasing. I pray your journey is filled with ambition, and prosperity!

[@rash9803]

2:38 I don't think I've ever made a stank face at an high note

[@hannatrejo4939]

I saved this expression for this...."YES, OMG!". Two favorites coming together, collab now please! Necesitamos más de esto

[@anushka2205]

He nailed it. Love it 💖 They would make a beautiful duet

[@fionnmurphy5521]

This mans too talented

[@yazmiinxp]

Can’t wait to see you in Utrecht soon 💗💗💗

[@boabuin1151]

My man James outperformed both Frank and Billie whilst covering some of their best tracks in the same project. GOAT

[@fernandavargas9160]

why i'm cryin' in the club right now?

[@kingamesaros]

Billie Eilish is unreachebale, but so is James Blake. This cover is incredible. Please James, make a song together with Billie, ti would be the perfection.

[@danielarg6179]

one word: PERFECTION

im so grateful to live in the same time with James

[@David-hy5iq]

Fantastic! But what has happened with the Spotify-version of this recording? Sounds absolutely horrible quality-wise compared to this.

[@MsLadyCatherine]

Superb !!! I don't like the original version, and you turn it in gold ! Your voice, the emotion with the piano sound... Magic ! ♥♥♥

60 people don't actually like James or Billie. AMAZING, this... wow. Great stuff JB

[@komonrecords]

Джеймс Блейк сделал невозможное и только что декриминализировал творчество Билли Айлиш. Для этого понадобился всего один кавер. Победа на Грэмми-2020 и сказки о гениях из домашней студии - не более, чем выхлоп маркетинговой машины. Сложно поверить в песни девочки с зелёными волосами, когда ее образ и каждый шаг ювелирно просчитаны, чтобы в этом сезоне безоговорочно понравиться всем. Дорогой Джеймс, лет ми спик фром май харт. Спасибо что перевел с языка мейджор-лейблов на человеческий. Получилось действительно красиво

[@welqdable]

@Карлсон Колобок Если отбросить такие стереотипы (хотя бы "не судить по одёжке"), то может открыться мир хорошей музыки, откуда не ждешь (я думаю, много кто прошел путь от "сложно поверить в песни девочки с зелёными волосами" до "мне действительно это нравится"). Тогда и переводы с языка лейблов могут и не понадобиться. Можешь (если есть желание, конечно), к примеру, послушать Billie Eilish - listen before i go (LIVE FROM THE STEVE JOBS THEATER); есть в этом всем своя атмосфера. PS: Без негатива, Джеймс никогда не делает плохо:)

[@gavinodriscoll3947]

the amount of times ive listened to this version now is insane. he is so damn good

[@marianne.1401]
