James Blake - Like The End (Live At Real World Studios)

[@SpisUchmich]

One of the most soul crushing songs released this year!

[@TheTransitmtl]

I'm a huge James Blake fan. Have all his vinyl and saw him live but Jame's has never really been a great lyricist and this is an example. There's a good idea there but gid those lyrics sound like they were written by an angsty 14 year hold. And it's basically a Radiohead song

[@georgebrown362]

@@TheTransitmtl who cares its great relax. Sometimes we don't need chapters in songs... its just powerful music with tempo & lyrics in harmony that make u feel something. Simple construction possibly - but it has magic

[@MarianaAnselmo30]

@@TheTransitmtli disagree with the point that james is not a great lyricist he's not def the number one but he has written some gems on his albums, however i agree that this song is corny and whinny

[@Jesko7587]

Damn, James Blake jamesblaked so hard I've got goosebumps.

[@boopsie18]

😂 he did, didnt he. You and me both

[@GManmusiq]

Did he jamesblake all over you? 🤨

[@ipsonmin]

He blaked my James till it felt like the end

[@85xljones]

Yess the goosebumps part

[@dreamphonix]

Please make an entire album with this acoustic instrument vibe! Love it.

[@botondkaa1097]

this song fits perfectly to the colour in anything album

[@max-ub9rw]

PLEASE

[@owrowsh]

I think I wasn't prepared for this track

[@timetocallitaday]

Nor me....heart achingly crushing. Xx

[@robbyrish13]

I hope this is the thing that gets people to consider that it’s not just that things aren’t ideal, it’s that we’re headed toward societal collapse. Truly. And verifiably so.

[@svaccha_]

amen

[@andstar57]

What a vocal. Can’t stop listening. With love from Moscow❤

[@ZENLADYHila]

This artist is a pure soul. Fell in love with his music this week . Can’t stop listening.

[@jengosoce]

james blake for the next james bond soundtrack!!!

[@owrowsh]

Assuming he would agree

[@dangerousdazza]

100%

[@FelixDuqueElGato]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@shanodavoo]

100% get him in

[@WoJayR]

they can't miss him anymore. No other composer than James Blake, with Alain De Botton @schooloflife

[@QKvox]

I love how reminiscent of some Radiohead this is while still being uniquely James Blake, especially the studio recording. Phenomenal song on every level

[@abbyd254]

I got some Muse vibes, too, but you're right- very original!

[@rdawgo14]

Really love the Blakiohead sound!

[@1ML-c4o]

This is the most radioblake song ever

[@saxxroboto]

haha So glad someone said it. So true.

[@billB101]

James Yorkie. ( Great tune though, no denying that. )

[@slowmowfit]

Hahaha totally!! I get some real OK Computer Vibes. Any other references you guys would have other than this song?

[@vitorhugoRH]

@@slowmowfit I can see Thom Yorke singing this and fit in like a glove. Also needs a Jonny distorted guitar solo at the end.

[@titusr]

This could easily be mistaken as a radiohead classic. Most beautiful song i´ve heard this year

[@ChristosChristodoulidis]

his voice is closer to Nina Simone than Radiohead, but I do get what you mean

[@solnassant1291]

He's a musical genius. Both versions are amazing.

[@AndyA1234]

As a fellow musician I was not aware of James. But will now be going through his back catalogue. Soulful, almost keening, quality to his voice.

[@wesleyimschoot7597]

Chills all over my body. How the music swells up towards the end, your voice cutting right through it. This is a masterpiece.

[@vadimzotoff7715]

I'm shocked! I think this is the best song I've heard in the last 10 years. I salute you James! The part with the camera on the drumsticks - it's amazing!

[@fabricebouillonlaforest7495]

To my humble opinion, the best version of this truly beautiful song. And maybe James' best work since the Overgrown album. This song feels like home. Thank you

[@lexpyth0n]

This is my Song of the Year 2024, absolutely brilliant work. Played it as such on KNCE today. Thank you so much for this.

As I separate my cardboard Set my tax aside to fund another war My spirit wakes up asking If we're spending what we can't afford Would you come home If you didn't recognise it? Home's tryna be America They just don't advertise it I always say they'd love your mind You just don't vocalise it We all get out of our minds I just don't glamorise it But doesn't it feel like the end? Something's coming for us And maybe we're not prepared That this might only be day one But doesn't it feel like the end? Something's coming for us I think we're not prepared That this might only be day one Thinking of ourselves, we are divided But if you fly your flag, they'll weaponise it Doesn't it feel like the end? When we can't even agree on what was said Would you come home If you didn't recognise it? Home's tryna be America They just don't advertise it But doesn't it feel like the end? Something's coming for us And maybe we're not prepared That this might only be day one But doesn't it feel like the end? Something's coming for us I think we're not prepared That this might only be day one

[@vahramkushchiyan5231]

This is what music should be like and nowadays James is one of very few that knows the secret of how to do it the right way.

[@CertifiedYapper-x8f]

A soundtrack for the soul.

[@AwdVanlife]

This is the James Blake I love. This is so beautiful.

[@hokulealinda]

So grateful he & his love got out of L.A.

[@abodytodeodorize]

Timeless masterpiece

[@EmmaCinema22]

Thank you James Blake 💚

[@mascafeporfavor8628]

Maravilloso.... Sin palabras... Simplemente no puedo

[@angelrage7528]

Absolutely breathtaking.

[@TeddyGreyOS]

One of the few remaining solo artists worth seeing live 🤌

[@wesleyimschoot7597]

I think that's exaggerated, there are a lot of solo artists that deserve to be listened to and to be seen live. But yeah, he's at the top of my list.

[@ANTIV15T]

can’t wait to hear how this sounds in a live setting

[@charlesbarclay8181]

This was live recorded

[@ANTIV15T]

@ and my comment was written before the video premiered

[@85xljones]

I just love James' art with music❤❤❤

[@Maria-iz3iy]

Esa voz, ese sentimiento cuando canta ....✨❤️

[@stewarttaggart7764]

stunning....I do think this might be the end... and this, an apocalypse anthem

[@SaidarSaraaah]

Really cannot get enough of this. Most beautiful masterpiece.

[@SaidarSaraaah]

First listen on radio 6 a few days ago, kinda dropped what I was doing and has a lil wee cryyyyy. That vocal on the end. ❤

[@jaynehobson5884]

Just bloody wonderful ❤

[@Just-liora]

"You only need to hear this kind of song once to fall in love with it, and I'm absolutely crazy about it. 😍🥰

[@Andyxom]

Seriously, they should give all the Grammys to this record! It's an absolute pure diamond in the ocean of mud, and the modern lack of talents

[@svaccha_]

i think you don't understand how grammys work

[@sophistik000]

How much talent can one man have? The complete excellence is staggering to you.

Like he read our minds and put it in the chorus, Thanks, James.

[@33doves]

We're all connected, we're reading his mind

[@n67ina]

Saying it like it is James, hope it reaches the world. ❤

[@patrickmartucci5205]

3:55 the angle from the drumstick was such a cool visual choice. i felt very immersed in the beat

[@TannerStricklin]

Reminds me of the Jigsaw Falling Into Place music video by Radiohead lol

[@patrickmartucci5205]

@ that was a great recommendation. I thoroughly enjoyed that

[@lucageorgemusic]

wow

[@dieterdohlen6386]

Shame on everyone who hasn't watched this yet... only 69k, but at least it's a meme.

Sound engineer made some really sick decisions with the drum mix

[@dieterdohlen6386]

yeah but the keyboard + guitar are kinda hardpanned left and right and when its only the piano and his voice I keep thinking my left ear don't work :D
