Blake, James - Modern Soul Lyrics

This sends me through the atmosphere, into the universe. Every time.

timeless

Incredible !!

There's something about this upload that sounds better than the album version, like there's a bit more depth to it? Maybe I'm just imagining things

1:42-2:03. That moment in the song is literally the most beautiful music I’ve ever heard.

I can't wait for next week, I'm so excited thinking about it that I almost want to cry, but until then I'm stuck in this prison of emotions and lies, you can say I'm a good actor keeping this facade for this long, I'll miss them for sure but it's something that I need to have a clear mind.

"Through sage green rivers of England" ❤️

DEMASIADAS SUPSDFRICPSIONES

I know a crossroads where I see them, see them
I want it to be over, I want it to be over
So I swim to you while I'm sleeping
Through sage green rivers of England

I see the scenery changes, changes
I want it to be over, I want it to be over
When I don't think of you, the willpower
What I didn't see was I was talking to so many people at once
I had no idea I was
I had no idea of the difference between
The way I saw your face and the way it was

Because of a few songs

I remember laughing, to take that away from you
To take that away from you, I remember laughing
I remember laughing, to take that away from you
To take that away from you, I remember laughing
The smaller the waves, you let me down
The longer I will defend you
The smaller the waves, you let me down
The longer I will defend you (because of a few songs)

I want it to be over, I want it to be over
I know a crossroads where I see them, see them
I want it to be over, I want it to be over

Songwriters: James Blake Litherland

Modern Soul lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC

he looks like that boy from 13 reasons why

2:43 it’s like an explosion in the ears. Damn good

Having a mental disorder crisis at 4 a.m. Being alone. Music is saving me.

The instrumental is beautiful and haunting like staring at a beksinski for too long..

Markus Vest i just looked at some of his art
while i listened to this good call , go to a gallery of his work
with James Blake on your headphone could be unbelievable ..

God, I love everything this man has made, I don't care if I'm a few years late discovering him.

I'm about to see him live, and I'm probably going to shit my pants. jsyk

Wear 2 pairs..

I'm so happy this came on my recommended he's a genius so pure. protect james blake at all costs

omg omg omg the voice😭😭❤️

That guy's fucking amazing.

this is such an epic song

WiFi+LoFi

“The next one is a new song from me. This is called modern soul”

This is truly one of the best pieces of music I've ever listened too, I can hear his heart and soul in the track . Thank you Mr B

Ryan Gosling is that you?

mostly the unique atmosphere he creates is why i love his work..

Waoo quelle voix! Merci

Yay, more high-pitched male vocals. Because that’s what we need right now.

Eargasm

His music is extremely therapeutic

This song is perfect song to release a few tears, pick up up your face and move on with life. I love it.

all i need is the first 2:01 and im good

beautiful song it helps heal my broken, cold, scarred up heart that i have
it allows me to express myself in a way I thought I was never able to do so!

Wow that segue at the end is a rough transition from James's voice haha.

I want to hear you sing with Elizabeth Frazer.

Holy fkin shit

I know a crossroads where I see them, see them
I want it to be over, I want it to be over
So I swim to you while I'm sleeping
Through sage green rivers of England
I see the scenery changes, changes
I want it to be over, I want it to be over
When I don't think of you, the willpower
What I didn't see was I was talking to so many people at once
I had no idea I was
I had no idea of the difference between
The way I saw your face and the way it was
Because of a few songs
I remember laughing, to take that away from you
To take that away from you, I remember laughing
I remember laughing, to take that away from you
To take that away from you, I remember laughing
The smaller the waves, you let me down
The longer I will defend you
The smaller the waves, you let me down
The longer I will defend you (because of a few songs)
I want it to be over, I want it to be over
I know a crossroads where I see them, see them
I want it to be over, I want it to be over

I feel the same way, I want it to be over, I want it yo be over.

This is a bit too much. Excruciatingly beautiful. What an artist!

Marry me.

this might be on blade runners headphones one dark bright night in the futures now

love love love.

So magical, unlike anything else.

Simply an Einstein Moment in MUSIC,Blake is Awesome!

I really want a music video for this song. Really, really, want one.

punk not death :)

yES lOVE

not the same song we heard in preview of this album

recuerdo que reia
recuerdo que reia

Sounds a bit like Kendrick's ADHD

Is that a bad thing?

Not much.

It's not a bad thing at all

Sunish? i gave you a thumbs up for
putting me onto ADHD nice..

AMAZING LOVE IT

wowww the end of this song...

Can't wait for some one to say " some dumb tv show bought me here"

A "dumb tv show did bring me here" it was so dumb i switched it
off and decided to play music instead..

TOTALLY ADDiCTED !!!! One of those tracks that completely connect within oneself ..

" I know a crossroads where I see them, see them ...
I want it to be over, I want it to be over
So I swim to you while I'm sleeping
Through sage green rivers of England
I see the scenery changes, changes ...
I want it to be over, I want it to be over "

A million of those views are mine

i love his voice - wondering if he is this good in sex

I cry during his songs :')

MY SOUL =0

THAT VOICE THO =)

finally,,,

Just beautiful

Yes real magic !!!

So much hate for a great artist. Fuck all of you.

His voice makes me faint goodness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

voz increible, excelente compositor!! brillante

Strange...

Make it stop, the world does not need another fucking sam smith. This bloke sings like ha has a vagina, grow some fuckin balls man.

Who cares?

Plus this guy is better than Sam Smith. James has been making music before Sam Smith too. So your're half wrong.

They are both terrible, sound like women.

+keirthms so how do you want a man's voice to sound like?

Next James Bond theme ? Would love to see james blake do it

Pura magia.....

One of the best musicians to ever live- no understatement.

This album really highlights his songwriting talent. It's always been prevalent, even in his earliest albums, but you can really see the evolution and maturity coming to fruition here. Well done as always, James.

I wanna tip you over, wanna tip you over.. 😍

sounds like a radiohead song or thom Yorke. I think it's the chorus..great song..

love the break down "I remember laughing to take that away from you" it is perfect

This song makes me wish for the days of my dad's McIntosh amp, Oracle turntable (with Goldbug cartridge), and Klipsh Horn speakers filling our living room with beautiful sound.

a Fakey bLak

Once you go BLAKE, you'll never go back

Unreal. Absolutely unreal. Thank you James

James and radiohead belong together... Someone could've told me thom Yorke sang the backup vocals to this song and I would've believed it

i wanted it to see what's all the fuss about, i get it now.

I want to see James and Sohn collaborate, if that ever happens, my heart would explode.

When I go for a run and hear the cicadas chirping, I start humming this melody.

Haunting

Love his music, hate his voice...

@edised71 gotta agree Thom Yorke's vocals make me anxious too, but it really works with his music i would say. Especially in his more electronic solo album. But if that's not your thing it is ok :)

+Dan “BTTG” Gimberg I used to be a big Radiohead fan, but lately I can't take Yorke's voice anymore, he sounds like a parody of himself, as for James Blake I really can't stand that hi pitch eerie voice, I know it's quite trendy at the moment but his music is top notch

@edised71 Before overgrown James used to alot of music without vocals, Like CYMK, Klavierwerke ( especially his live version ) and he used to make alot of remixes under an different name : "Harmonimix" you could check some of that out :)

+Dan “BTTG” Gimberg Oh yes thanks, I know some of his instrumental works, I host a radio show and I have played some of his music, I just don't dig his vocal work, not saying it's bad as it seems a lot of people enjoy it, it just doesn't do it for me, if you want to check my eclectic radio show :) http://www.mixcloud.com/flat-ed/

@edised71 cool that you own a show ! and dont worry i understood what you said, you indeed never critized his vocals you just said you didnt like them, wich is totally ok :) and ill check it out for sure.

On heavy rotation

Always have this song in my head now.

I love him so much !!!!! This song is so perfect

Listening to this with headphones in is bliss

Can't wait for the fucking album

Those panned cymbal crashes are great.

UR ON THE BLOODY BEYONCÉ ALBUM MATE

Cara, eu estou viajando muito nessa música! Amo!!

I didn't knew about the existence of this masterpiece, shame on me

A huge progress from last LP! (along with Radio Silence)

I want to tip you over, want to tip you over

Listen to this and chill...

James Blake and chill
