Bothered me that theres no names or timestamps for any songs, some of these live versions sounded so much better than their official releases and it took me ages to track down any of the songs back then. Came across the vid again recently and figured I'd do someone out there a service with a list. Much love.

[@trissc6855]

[@bluebaconjake405]

@@AdamFraserTv You do know that not everything HAS to be on beat and perfect right? It doesnt make the music dull for me. Makes it much more dynamic and imperfect which is fine imo.

[@AdamFraserTv]

@@bluebaconjake405 I never said it had to be perfect in fact , I would argue that it’s the “imperfections” that make music stand out but the vocalist is out of key and out of pocket in a way that doesn’t benefit the composition . His tone more than anything really throws off the vibe for me .

I just realized how much Puma Blue is influenced by Sade, it's very subtle yet very present

[@aritztz7040]

And by Jeff Buckley ✨✨

[@Otie64]

puma blue is a culmination of all the best influences possible

[@maxpower9728]

I totally heard it too!! Then after I quickly and excitedly commented about it… I scrolled down and saw this comment posted a month ago 😞😁 but yeah, I immediately got Sade vibes from Puma’s phrasing and intonation

also Rhye / Milosh.

This 'Late Night Special' is like a rare Public Acess show for the nocturnal and lingering souls at night. your music is a calming balm for my soul, a flickering light amidst the blackness of the night, a luring voice for me to follow and point into. thank you for making such an emotional compass for me, I may be lost at times but I know i have your music to guide me throughout my labyrinth of life.

[@lilguice1601]

Ive found her. Just when i was searching for myself. On my own journey trying to better myself and get everything straightened in my life. She shook my world. Shattered me to the core with those soft brown eyes. Shes so gentle and shy, innocent and pure. A smile that is like a thousand sunsets over years cast into one. I pray for her everyday. That she could only see herself through my eyes. I pray this is the blessing and not the lesson. To have and to hold until death do us part. Thank you puma. This has carried me through endless nights.

I listen to this on a weekly basis almost and it's been a year since I started doing that, It's just so damn good I can't get over it. When I listen to the official song it's usually way less than what's here. Idk, this is an all time favorite for me.

My gosh I'm so late finding this..but I'm so glad it's one of those things you'd wish to hear again for the first time

Puma Blue’s music hits hard at night , it’s the kind of music you could fall in love (or lust) to…beautiful, rich & timeless. Velvet Leaves, Cherish, Already Falling, Midnight Blue, Want Me, Opiate & Silk Print are my favourites.

[@ContinuousFocus]

Your voice is beyond beautiful, I’ve been listening to you since 2017 and it doesn’t amaze me that you bring life to your music while playing life. I’m so happy your getting the attention and all these tours cause yet in 2023, you’re very underrated and very not heard of. Thank you for keeping me alive even if it does sound traumatic, cause your music would always bring me joy and hope and yet for a better future. It seems so unreal of how much of your music I can relate to. Hopefully i can come meet you when you come near me (if i can afford the roadtrip) but hopefully i can really meet you and tell you how grateful i am for your music! Thank you Puma Blue!!!

This film has a strong visual identity and pays attention to the details of framing and color coordination. When the cinematography, set design, and costumes come together harmoniously like this, it creates such a captivating and immersive experience for us- the audience. It really is a beautiful performance. And the use of soft colors and the choice of materials like linens and cotton for the clothing contributes to the overall aesthetic and mood of the film. Such attention to cohesion adds to the visual pleasure and creates a consistent atmosphere throughout the whole video. I was captivated for an hour and ten mins haha
