Kanye West - Only One Live on Skavlan (Full Performance) | SVT/NRK/Skavlan

[@spacecash9721]

This was the ending song to my mothers funeral service. I am a 29 year old man. I didn't know they were going to play it. I could never imagine a more beautiful song and moment. I already loved the song of course.... now it almost ruins it haha I cry like a child. Hey Miss Donda, if you see my Mama tell her I'm lost.....

[@gaelbrusau5098]

I'm sorry, man. I can only imagine how hard this must be. It's okay to be lost but don't forget what Donda said: "even if you are not ready for the day, it cannot always be night" Keep moving forward, I'm sure she is and always will be proud of you.

Kanye West is a genius.

// joe // he sucks....

[@MooMoIsDaBest]

migo53333 okay but your opinion is wrong

[@migo53333]

// joe // and what makes him a genius joe?

[@MooMoIsDaBest]

migo53333 listen to his music, and you'll understand.

[@thefish1152]

migo53333 just bcos he might say or do some weird stuff doesn’t mean he isn’t a genius. Kanye is truly a genius

[@eloylopez8929]

The visuals on this are so simple yet so powerful. It's almost as if this song helps to calm and focus his mind when things get too hectic or thoughts of self-doubt arise. Represented by the morphing of the light into the 3 most basic shapes, the square, circle, and triangle, he is bringing himself back to the basics and blocking out the world in order to focus his true passions.

[@utpye6554]

WOW...BEAUTIFUL!!!

[@paulin_672]

Impressed by the sharpness of projection and transitions between shapes

[@polymerizedrecords]

Right? How did he achieve that projection quality?

[@paulin_672]

polymerizedrecords I guess it's not a casual scene projector but maybe an high definition video projector just playing those shapes made on after effects for example (suggestion if someone knows, I'd like to know)

The "Tell Nori about me" part is heartbreaking... Beautiful song Kanye. ♥️

[@mgaming35]

What does that even mean

[@ethanomw]

mgaming35 nori is kanye's daughter north's nickname. he wrote this song from the perspective of his mom who passed away. also in the beginning, "hello mari" is kanyes nickname from childhood

in my opinion the Kanye is the best artist since 2004, despite his attitude, I think musically it is a genius and even today I do not see many like him. My favorite artist, respect this man because he is the best.

[@genaroflores7484]

This song lyrics capture all the emotions I feel from losing my mom over eight years ago. The part about about next time I look in your eyes will have wings and will fly always make me cry but thank God for a song that can help me connect to my mother and I know that reality of being together has come even if in this life hasn't caught up to the spiritual reality

[@armandolazaro8160]

I can’t listen to this song without tears. I lost my mom in 2010, this really is how it feels.

[@drewgoldson]

I don't care what people say about this guy, he's an amazing artist.

[@jjay2530]

I’ve only discovered this masterpiece now, Kanye is a genius man

[@livs1313]

This song is true and sincere.. it's from the two people he loves the most... his mom and his daughter... U can definitely see.. since he had his daughter.. he is changing.. and real.. and authentic.. even though he has his own thoughts... people agree or disagree.. he is coming from his true feelings.. at least he is not being fake.. and will say sorry when he knows it. i respect the guy for trying and being real.

[@zachadam8572]

so much for that lol

[@addeyanandy]

Doctor say i m the illest Cuz im suffering from realness

[@FramDamn]

I'll always be grateful to Kanye for how he changed my life for the best. No matter what.

[@jinkim96]

I'm not gonna lie, this got me in tears and not some "manly tears" bs but more crying like a little baby tears. And I've already watched this few times before. Whatever people might say about him, he is the purest and the most sincere human being/artist to live among us. And it's heartbreaking to see him having a breakdown right now. I really hope he'd get better and take care of himself first and foremost than releasing his new album. So much respect for this man.

[@bluedaaz6603]

[@Sora-ww1qo]

love this version more than the studio version, actually it sounds more cleaner here

[@drizzyeezy6209]

Watch, listen and learn. Kids born 10 years from now are gonna ask us what was it like seeing Kanye perform? What was it like buying a new CD of his? Just like we admire past artists from the 90's even 70's of all genres/art, we in our generation of 2015 are watching an icon that's only in his mid 30s.. Quincy Jones is how the fuck old? Imagine who Kanye West will be at age 60. Although Kanye can have his moments, he's undeniably one of (if not) the greatest artists of our generation. #YeezySeason

[@mccann82]

"What was it like buying his CDs" hahahahaha "Yeah man, I like walked into the shop, took the CD to the counter and handed over money and they put it in a bag and left...it was awesome!!"

[@SnoopGorilla]

McCann82 no, it's not what you did when you bought the CD, it's the feeling you get when you buy a CD that you've been waiting for. the feeling and the anticipation you have for the album. the fact that you actually have a physical copy of something, and supporting the artist that dropped the album. in the future, everything will happen online, either if you buy it on iTunes, or download it. it's not the same as actually having a physcal copy of it.

[@mccann82]

SnoopGorilla kids in 25 years aren't going to give a shit about people catching feelings about purchasing a CD back in the day. The question will never be asked. In 25 years kids will have their own generation star and know exactly the anticipation of waiting on new music from them.

[@SnoopGorilla]

McCann82 i think you forget the fact that most teenagers today enjoys going through their parents vinyl collections. do you really think that will just stop?

[@AmandaNOTMandy]

That right there... That is the Kanye that I love! What an emotionally powerful preformance! While I wouldn't want him to sing slow songs all the time... I would like him to start preforming like that again. Meaning... heart and emotion! Kanye use to give every single preference so much heart and emotion. When The Watch the Throne tour came to Madison Square Garden in New York City... I am incredibly fortunate to have been able to attend nor only a show.... but a Madison Square Garden Show! They did two shows at Madison Square Garden... I attended the 11/7 show... the reason I remember exactly which one I attended... is because... I totally remember saying that if I was able to afford it... I would have came back and attended the 11/8 show. Yes... it was that incredible! One of the best parts for me... was not planned. Jay-Z said something along the lines of... I know I'm about to get fined for this... they turning the house lights on... but I don't give a F! What followed was the most incredible 15-20 minutes of Jay-Z picking random songs of his and absolutely KILLING IT! ( Kanye did take part a little bit.) Anyway... after Watch the Throne... that's when I pretty much stopped enjoying Kanye's music. .. except for the occasional song. (Only one.) Man... I truly miss the old Kanye!

One day you'll understand So hear me out, hear me out I won't go, I won't go No goodbyes, no goodbyes Just hello, just hello And when you cry, I will cry And when you smile, I will smile And next time when I look in your eyes We'll have wings and we'll fly Hello, my only one, just like the mornin' sun You'll keep on risin' 'til the sky knows your name And you're still my chosen one, remember who you are No, you're not perfect but you're not your mistakes Hey, hey, hey, hey Tell Nori about me, tell Nori ab- I just want you to do me a favor Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me

[@imdetamilboy]

Why doesn't he use the auto tune he used in 808s? He sounded really good in that whole album. I've never him seen him use that type of auto tune since that album. It's weird...is this just him tryna maintain that 'chicago influence' or w.e cus it's the same auto tune he's used in Yeezus and College Dropout, two albums he has tried quite hard to give off a 'chicago feel'.

[@ryanvafaei2145]

I think that 808s had a much more distorted version of autotune which made the vocals sound more raw and harsh which matched the feel of the album. Songs like this are less raw and harsh so he uses cleaner autotune vocals. (Also I'm aware I'm 5 years late)

[@kylerk806]

Ryan Vafaei yeah 808 would be too distorted for this type of singing honestly.
