Sleep Token - Blood Sport (Wembley Arena, London, December 16, 2023) LIVE/4K

[@HeavyMetalCoasters]

It’s insane how good he still sounds after tearing up his voice earlier in the show. Vessel is a beast of a vocalist. Best band in the world at this current moment. Worship.

[@ligma9260]

I think he was just sick or something

[@calmingchannelbillbistak]

THIS is how 1 man can take his heartbreak and HEAL others! Everything I have spent to support ST is NOT enough. If I were of divine power, I would bestow Vessel's deepest wish. To say I love Sleep Token, Vessel and his fellow musicians is a severe understatement.

[@emsysuffs]

I didn't know this song prior to the gig, but the way the crowd unleashed their emotions for it all around me and screamed every lyric, I knew it was going to be a heavy one. Grown men around us were bawling their eyes out. This band unlocks l something in people that's been sealed away for a long long time, but in such a healing way. Worship.

[@RealTroyE23]

This is perfectly worded, dont know how to explain all the emotions this band has made me feel over the last year that I forgot I even had access to, thank you.

[@LoveLeigh313]

That “thank you” in the beginning 😮‍💨 Nearly impossible to watch this without crying. What a beautiful human, song, message and crowd 🫶🏼

[@Tseiwert14]

His bow at the end made me tear up knowing how much it must have hurt him to not be at his best. This band brings out emotions like no other band I swear

[@emsysuffs]

I've never cried so hard or been so happy at a gig. The whole standing crowd was crying, hugging, singing, moshing, screaming. I'll never forget it as long as I live 🙌

[@Vitalogy_13]

I'm seeing Sleep Token in November and seeing this makes me love them so much more

[@JPSchulzy82]

The lighting at this show was amazing. I love how II and the Vesselettes are up so high on their platforms.

[@madamudi5199]

This was far from a failure! This was the most beautiful thing that I ever seen not even exaggerating 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 The crowd did great and I’m happy for them for having the opportunity to be there for him, to show him that he is loved and appreciated (and the band of course) I really hope that he knows how much we appreciate him💙 I also hope that Vessel is ok and resting, he deserves it! WARSHIP 🙌🏼

[@sezzy297]

this was so painfully beautiful. the way he teared up my god my heart broke for him. im so so so happy that the crowd gave their 100% to the songs especially Blood Sport. ive heard from the sleep token discord that it wasnt planned at all. even though he was sick, he still wanted to try and give his best and he did. and from the other videos ive seen, everyone was so supportive. i loved that for them. i hope he rests well and he knows that he is (they are) loved. thank u for the great video!!

[@emsysuffs]

I think the initial reaction was shock and disappointment, but knowing they were carrying on was a relief, and as soon as they said "he's not well" everyone just exploded in support and went for it.

[@Schnebols]

He kills himself with every performance, and this one; because of where it was and what happened, just hit even harder

[@Charlene_Dean]

What happened ?

[@IamKingSleezy]

@@Charlene_Dean he blew his voice out about halfway through the set and he took a couple of songs off because of it. Easily their biggest show ever and that happens, after The Summoning and Granite he started singing again and pushed through.

[@SlothoftheSun]

@@IamKingSleezy it's because he was ill as well

[@IamKingSleezy]

@@SlothoftheSun I’m sure that played more into his voice needing a break. Either way, Vessel truly loves the fans if he’s willing to power through pain like that to finish a show.

[@Charlene_Dean]

@@IamKingSleezy I guess it's both. I'm a fitness instructor and when I have a cold I lost my voice often... Because I use it a LOT. It wouldn't be the same with another job so I just can imagine if one's a vocalist in a metal band.

[@MadailinBurnhope]

I love this band, I’ll never forget being at this gig

[@floridawilldrown]

Got me crying over here 🥹

[@yes-rh3dy]

the crowd singing along my heart 😭😭❤️

[@DavidHernandez-kl4cl]

Wow…that’s all I can say. Worship.

[@kelzabells]

I was there and watching it back still guts me. Incredible.

[@emsysuffs]

Same. I get goosebumps and get choked up every time I see a clip of it.

[@tjh5716]

I’m so proud of this band. I remember listening to them when they were under a hundred k listeners on Spotify.

[@totalityismentality7472]

This ending always gets me when vessel just lets It all out

[@DarkGenHero]

Thank you for recording this, I was in emotional overload XD Even watching now i'm a wreck XD

[@lizethc158]

why he cries at every concert 😐

[@ch_vky148]

bcz he's definitelly very passionate, emotional and deep person and his lyrics very intimate for him. it's like in every song u can tell this is something personal in those words... also - this is real music, true art. it supposed to make u emotional in different ways

[@IamKingSleezy]

It’s a very emotional song and he’s a very emotional human being.

[@MiguelEsquivies]

that, and he was apparently sick for this show, one of their biggest ones and the last one of the year. so he might’ve felt as though he was disappointing fans due to his condition. Vessel and Sleep Token as a whole, take their performance very seriously and passionately, which can impact how he feels. plus Blood Sport is one song that when he did the “From the Room Below” performance, he stated to fans that they “saved him” not the other way around, so clearly, a VERY personal and emotional song.

[@IamKingSleezy]

@@MiguelEsquivies “I did not save anybody. You. Saved. Me.”

[@sezzy297]

god forbid a man cries and be emotional after he lost his voice and it was like the most important night for him😭😭
