#JamesBay
Drop your favorite James Bay lyric below!
Come on let it goooo
In disguise, we get a little better at controlling ourselves around midnight. Then we slide into the arms of someone else.
Tell me how to be in this world, tell me how to breathe in and feeling no hurt, tell me 'cause I believe in something
I believe in Us
Hold back the river tonight
I’m always thinking bout the two of us. You play on my mind, always playing on my mind.
He could sing a grocery list and it would bring me to tears
I agree completely 😂
True
I felt this in my soul
Yess!! Its a very exclusive club. For me, from modern day singers only Hozier, James, Mitski, Joanna Newsom and Adele are capable of this magic.
Absolutely
Every song he sings sounds like a James Bay song
mark of an artiste
Okay he has an amazing voice and everything but DROP THE SKINCARE ROUTINE SIS
That was my thought the entire video
lmao this str8 king probably just uses cetaphil and nothing else
Also the shampoo and conditioner brand while he’s at it.
lmao i'm dead
but like...imagine a harry styles and James bay collab??? I'd die and come back alive
James' hair is literally GOALS
HIS SKIN TOOOOO
Isn't it just tho?
Better than mine, as a girl
I see you everywhere!
YES
James Bay: Lyrics are were I struggle.
Also James Bay: Gets 15/15 and is a genuine delight while doing so.
James: *struggles with the lyric hold*
Also James: *literally has a song called Hold Back the River where he says hold like a hundred times*
he said he wasn't gonna sing his own song that time, "I'm better than that".
lol, watch the video man. not tryna be judgmental in anyway btw.

As if I needed to be more delusional and crush on James any harder, he goes ahead and sings Fly Me to the Moon, praises Haim and mentions his love for Paolo Nutini’s Candy. Give me a break, James.
Whenever he left it to the very last second to sing a song, my anxiety would break free like Freddy Mercurie.
*Freddie Mercury*

He’s the most underrated singer in the world !
I was at his concert once, this dude’s energy is just soooo magnificent
He is so handsome, humble yet so underrated. IT HURTS!!!
I need a jazz james bay song ASAP
One of the most diverse range I've seen here.... Go James!!!!
Wow, this was very challenging for me. My mind went blank for most of the words. James did quite well, and he has an impressive taste in music.
Wow they gave him such hard words!
His voice is so soothing. He’s brilliant!
This is by far the best one! What a talent! great music taste
When he started with Fred Astaire i was like “yo this bro kinda cool” THEN he jumped to The Rolling Stones I fell in love!! THEN HE SANG RAY CHARLES!! THEN DAVID BOWIE THEN ERIC CLAPTON THEN Earth, Wind, and Fire THEN TOM PETTY?? AND THEN THE BEATLES??? Mans has TASTE.
I know, me here right away thinking Bruno Mars then he pulled out the Fred Astaire and I was like HOLD UP!!! Someone besides me knows my twinkle toes Freddy with the simple beautiful voice?
What is he talking about? That Fly Me to the Moon was beautiful.
James: *does an amazing cover of fly me to the moon acapella*
Also James: "I'm sorry that was terrible"
Me: 👁️👄👁️
Please get Harry Styles next
James is a music box of everything 💘

So now I'll have to listen to all the songs he mentioned. Btw my fav lyrics by James bay (or rather my fav lyrics ever) is "Oh butterflies you steal my sleep each night" from the song "Need the sun to break"
wasted on each other , collide, when we were on fire love love love James Bay
No wonder I love him, he's this incredible.
I love Paolo Nutini, that song, and that lyric: "Darling, I'll bathe you skin. I'll even wash your clothes. Just give me some candy, before I go."
James is one of the best musicians in existence! 💞 so grateful for his music! Also he killed this game! 🙌🏻
