RAYE - Escapism (Radio 1's Big Weekend 2023)

[@Becksnnc]

You can tell she's really soaking it up and just appreciating and living the moment while it lasts. She truly is so happy to have made it. Good for her.

[@nikolascisar1331]

Sounds really funny when she sings it with British accent haha

[@caolanmurray5640]

​@@nikolascisar1331I rather her singing not in a British accent but rap in a brittish accent

[@SteveinSanFrancisco]

I have a feeling it's going to last a very long time....

[@lovemash]

@@SteveinSanFranciscoI do so too, it's just the beginning of something big!

[@tcn0515]

Can we just appreciate her drummer a minute, man killed it. And the rest of the band, all class musicians!!!!!

[@daniaalgulzar3508]

Shoutout to Matt for always killing it!

[@iJuanGutierrez]

Straight facts

[@SteveinSanFrancisco]

He's been with her since the beginning

[@WebsterPrince]

Her drummer ❤

[@zorooqj]

Fukkkk he destroyed song sound n words with too loud

[@kennykings]

This the best crowd any artist could ask for

[@evaarjona1775]

Fr❤❤❤

[@gagan69]

Not really, watch roddy ricch- box live performance

[@beatriz7629]

this woman is a blessing!

[@abbiereidy9108]

I agree ❤

[@mrlately]

she's outstanding live

[@fabioroldam2124]

I'm still wondering how she manages to play this everytime. She's amazing, this track is a savage one to handle live. This song is one of the greatest in a while. The story, the delivery the Melodies...all the best raye 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@eliankreimerfride38]

yeppp so many overlapping melodies and she still kills it

[@ydahm]

Discovering this woman just right now with this video... HOW ? She's incredible

[@plantcraftie4141]

she dropped her first album a couple of months ago! It's so good!!

[@karinadackyte4382]

Yh not sure how just now!

[@KingKiaXXVII]

gosh i want raye to win so bad, cant wait to witness it

[@ames-inthe-grass]

me too

[@nicholas8484]

ESCAPISM IS ONLY THE BEGINNING

[@caolanmurray5640]

​@@nicholas8484yes

[@lug1183]

I remember 2021 when she was fighting with her old label cause she couldn't release any albums and she wasn't receiving any support at all from them. It's so nice to see she has made it 💗

[@alwhalen3488]

I really wish she could sing ALL the words. There is nothing in her lyrics that everyone in the audience hasn't already heard. If there is, they probably shouldn't be there for many other reasons. Censorship annoys me, especially for such a great song from an awesome artist!

[@darkfeather111]

Its probably the sponsors for the concert not her decision

[@meganwilson5522]

i agree. shows what a good artist she is though, the emotion still carries and it she sounds incredible !!

[@MercMarque]

yeah the sponsers for the concert would rather her censor herself for the children instead of actually having parents/guardians do their job

[@ltaylor3033]

it's a bbc event your not allowed to swear

[@Hanit16Assouline]

THE ENERGY SHE IS A TRUE PERFORMER AND ARTIST OMG

[@Mar1a_Vieira]

The fact that the crowd was singing from the beginning… the girls were soaking it up! Love it!!

[@TASIAawful1]

She’s a blues singer with pop mixed in she has a phenomenal voice

[@SarahJigglypuff]

The crowd singing along with her 😭

[@Cammy_W]

She’s amazing live holy crap

[@IToraino]

She’s come so far. I’m so proud of her and this moment.

[@TMittoso]

Raye’s energy is otherworldly. The way we can tell she’s feeling the music in her bones…she’s the GOAT

[@jayanamii]

saw her live when she opened for kali uchis in miami and she's a phenomenal performer! her music on spotify doesn't come close to doing her voice justice. id love to see her do a jazz album.

[@mercedesrioux4005]

She reminds me of amy whinehouse her soul how she is so passionnate about her music and what she has to say ❤️

[@Leehuss5582]

Proud of RAYE, she put 2fingers up at the record companies and is doing things her own way and I say good luck Sis..

[@raoufonexofficielle6648]

The drummer 🥁 and the guitarists and all are amazing especially raye she’s lovely and she deserv a big success love you raye

Wow i got goosebumps all over my body at the "I don't wanna feel how I did last night" part 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Amazing performance I loved the energy of Raye and the Crowed!!! And huge respect to the whole band you guys made a great job 💯💯💯

[@joshsmith469]

I love RAYE since she landed in my playlist with Jax Jones. Her raw emotions and lyrics are everything. Some may not like it but I like when she looses control of her voice a little at loud parts, she's giving the song everything and more then

[@brankica1007]

Love this women,killing it❤

[@Heidimusicuk]

Nahhh this just went OFFFFFFFFF wtfff this is going down in history!!!!!!

[@lumpvision5746]

This song is SO much better with a live band! RESPECT 💯👊🏾.

This is hard to pull off live and she did AMAZING!!!

[@kennykings]

She’s winning so harrdddddff

LYRICS: Sleazin' and teasin', I'm sittin' on him All of my diamonds are drippin' on him I met him at the bar, it was 12 or somethin' I ordered two more wines, 'cause tonight, I want him A little context if you care to listen I find myself in a shit position The man that I love sat me down last night And he told me that it's over, dumb decision And I don't wanna feel how my heart is rippin' In fact, I don't wanna feel, so I stick to sippin' And I'm out on the town with a simple mission In my little black dress, and this shit is sittin' Just a heart broke bitch, high heels, six inch In the back of the nightclub, sippin' champagne I don't trust any of these bitches I'm with In the back of the taxi, sniffin' cocaine Drunk calls, drunk texts, drunk tears, drunk sex I was lookin' for a man who was on the same page Now it's back to the intro, back to the bar To the Bentley, to the hotel, to my old ways 'Cause I don't wanna feel how I did last night I don't wanna feel how I did last night Doctor, doctor, anything, please Doctor, doctor, have mercy on me, take this pain away You're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel Toke this joint how I'm blowin' this steam Back to my ways like 2019 Not 24 hours since my ex did dead it I got a new man on me, it's about to get sweaty Last night really was the cherry on the cake Been some dark days lately and I'm finding it crippling Excuse my state, I'm as high as your hopes That you'll make it to my bed, get me hot and sizzling If I take a step back to see the glass half full At least it's the Prada two-piece that I'm trippin' in And I'm already actin' like a dick, know what I mean? So you might as well stick it in Just a heart broke bitch, high heels, six inch In the back of the nightclub, sippin' champagne I don't trust any of these bitches I'm with In the back of the taxi, sniffin' cocaine Drunk calls, drunk texts, drunk tears, drunk sex I was lookin' for a man who was on the same page Now it's back to the intro, back to the bar To the Bentley, to the hotel, to my old ways 'Cause I don't wanna feel how I did last night I don't wanna feel how I did last night Doctor, doctor, anything, please Doctor, doctor, have mercy on me, take this pain away You're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel, mm (what?) 'Cause I don't wanna feel like I felt last night I don't wanna feel like I felt last night Be at peace with the things you can't change (last night) I'll be naked when I leave and I was naked when I came, yeah Out of reach, out of touch, too numb, I don't feel no way Toast up, so what? Street small, but it go both ways So you'll run, yeah, but you'll never escape Sunset in the maze (you're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel) I don't wanna feel how I did last night I don't wanna feel how I did last night, oh Doctor, doctor, anything, please Doctor, doctor, have mercy on me You're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel I don't wanna feel how I did last night I don't wanna feel how I did last night I don't wanna feel how I did last night Mm, lipstick smudged like modern art I don't know where the fuck I am or who's drivin' the fuckin' car Speedin' down the highway, sippin' Mixin' pills with the liquor 'cah fuck these feelings I left everyone I love on read (uh-huh) Spilling secrets to the stranger in my bed (uh-huh) I remember nothing, so there's nothing to regret (uh-huh) Other than this 4-4 kick drum poundin' in my head
