I don't even know how the hell I found Banks, but boy I'm glad I did. There's no other singer or band that makes me feel like she does. It just touches me so personally, in a place that I shield away from everyone (or rather shield everyone away from it), kind of in my secret personality. Hope she has a long and successful career ahead of her!
+JcGross A friend of mine just introduced me to this song and this girl...After so many years she still gets me like we've never lost touch! The parts I've hidden are now open and exposed and because of this song I am ok with that..
+sorrowsmiles13 that's beautiful i'm glad that you were able to express it out. you said it perfectly. yeah we should be okay with that, it helps us heal when we face those things we hide.
Lyrics: But it's all the same I could have foreseen That you would act like you are Oh so cool you seem Blending with that scene Wearing what you think is hard I can see you struggling Boy, don't hurt your brain Thinking what you're gonna say Cause everything's a game Always trying to calculate Trying to look smart but not too smart To threaten anything they say But it's all the same I could have foreseen That you would act like you are Oh so cool you seem Blending with that scene Wearing what you think is hard I can see you struggling Boy, don't hurt your brain Thinking what you're gonna say Cause everything's a game Always trying to calculate Trying to look smart but not too smart To threaten everything they say
She is actually a pretty good songstress in terms of making pop that actually isn't lyrically meaningless or vapid. The only thing that holds her back from a career writing for big artists is actually a good quality: the distinctive, haunting sound of her music.
I found this song 4 years ago and I STILL listen to it all the time. It’s brand new every time. It’s timeless. A treasure. Thank you BANKS for your continuous artistry. Love, a fan- forever.
I honestly find Banks to be one of the most beautiful humans both spiritually and physically. Like I just want to fall in love with her and love her forever. I don't even know her, and maybe we wouldn't get along, but I can just sense something magical abuot her. She's incredible.
I've known this song for over a year because it's fucking amazing and depicts the eventful progression of soft emotion to and explosion of frustration so well. BANKS is phenomenally talented. Whoever this "pole dancer" is that made this song all that more known, props to her.
Jillian has grown so much in these years: The maturity in her voice, the quality of the lyrics and her music. But that's just the way she's been since 2014. She has been always a global treasure.
Banks, you have never left my music list. I went through so much pain, healing and strength with this album. Can’t believe it’s 8 years old. I’ve been out of that old relationship 2 years now, and I still feel this heavily. Bless you!!
She reminds me similar to Lykke Li, Lorde, Marina and the Diamonds, Ellie Goulding, Florence and the Machine, Little Dragon, Phantogram kind of style; she so awesome. Love this girl.
Jordan McDonald I'm with you, all these youngster are only into these rat infected artist like Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, 1D, etc., I prefered these singers who are not well known like her.
***** I agree with both of ya'll. The generation of today has no idea what's real music. I'm in love with underground artists, they're are the best...and secretly unstoppable.
That moment when someone you've been supporting from day one makes their dreams come true and you're just marveling at her raw talent and grace😊 she's my idol, since 2013😀 Jillian Banks, you're finally here!!!!!!😀
I have been listening to this song for years. Whenever I get new headphones this is one of the first songs I listen to because it is so dynamic and the fucking bass is incredible. Banks Brain for the win.
I remember listening to this with my first love 6 or 7 years ago. Him intruducing me to banks, was one of the first impressions. Wish him all the best.
I adore this song, due to the lovely and mental meaning beyond the surface. It is incredibly deep and ear-catching, the lyrics are beautiful and they have a healthy meaning, if I can call it like that. I actually find myself in all her songs, because they are life-related and they even catch my soul, I love her so much :) Her songs are pure gold and pure intelligence!
I hope she gives a major shoutout to that chick pole dancing on facebook because I instantly picked up this album after hearing this track. Banks has my vote so far for R&B album of the year. I didnt feel the need to skip one track. Amazing album and great production.
Why would she shoutout the pole dancer plenty of people knew and loved this song before her haha who cares about how you discovered it. That's u dude. Anyways I agree about album of the year although FKA twigs and the weeknd were also really great
Gabby Port i would have never know about this artists music if it wasnt for the bad ass dancer..she is wonderfully talanted and interpreted banks beautifully and tastefully expressed.
I found her at a time when I started to awaken to my Goddess self. It is a pleasure to sit still and hear your innerself in lyrics, but it is beautiful to see yourself in another. She is dynamic. I am dynamic, and that makes us powerful! Cheers to the Divine Feminine magical❤
She has such a unique sound that is just so beautiful. I've started listening to a lot more alternative and indie kind of music, because all that shit they play on the radio is just garbage.
***** I saw her live yesterday! Except you could see on her face that she was sad because she could only sing three songs since she was having technical difficulties. :/
Soren High sent me here years ago with her amazing pole dance routine... been hooked on her ever since. Glad to see that shows in the U.S are using her songs. Her concept of music is pure and amazing ❤️😩❤️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I'm like in another space when listening to this with my headphone and full screen, the music video is goddamn awesome. it suits with the song. Why did i just found Banks? I think I'm a fan now.
***** The aforementioned video brought my here and I am now hooked on this song. I will also explore other songs by Banks as well. I disagree with your statement that The Weeknd is 1-Dimensional. I've been following the Weeknd for years and his recent success in the mainstream music following has been great for his career! Listen to his old mix-tapes grouped up into Trilogy, Loft Music is a personal favorite. Then listen to his album Kiss Land and the variance he portrays in his music. Pretty and Odd Look from Kiss Land are favorites as well. Either way, The Weeknd has a lot of talent, and his future is bright. Hopefully Banks will find great success as well.
I love how she just rips this guy to pieces and tells him not to hurt his brain, like he isn't capable of thinking for himself. Individuality always trumps conformity. Always! Maybe I should send these lyrics to my ex... :)
One of the most sensual and intense songs I've ever heard
Omg......g
Yaaaassss!!!
That's an interesting take, I wouldn't go that far but she's the bomb fo sure
I agree. Most her vids are, and I love to work out in them, and do my dance work outside puts me in a state of mind.
totally!
I don't even know how the hell I found Banks, but boy I'm glad I did. There's no other singer or band that makes me feel like she does. It just touches me so personally, in a place that I shield away from everyone (or rather shield everyone away from it), kind of in my secret personality.

I heard her song called Waiting Game playing in the originals and I just had to get it
I was watching the victoria secret fashion show and they played Waiting Game and i fell in love from there! ❤❤❤
Yes!! She gets me all up in my feels!!
Lyrics:
But it's all the same
I could have foreseen
That you would act like you are
Oh so cool you seem
Blending with that scene
Wearing what you think is hard
I can see you struggling
Boy, don't hurt your brain
Thinking what you're gonna say
Cause everything's a game
Always trying to calculate
Trying to look smart but not too smart
To threaten anything they say
But it's all the same
I could have foreseen
That you would act like you are
Oh so cool you seem
Blending with that scene
Wearing what you think is hard
I can see you struggling
Boy, don't hurt your brain
Thinking what you're gonna say
Cause everything's a game
Always trying to calculate
Trying to look smart but not too smart
To threaten everything they say
Olivia D. Thank you for putting the lyrics here!! (:

Ikr
omgg so true fucking eargasm

Michael Scott Hertzberg and smoke you some.
Estou fazendo isso agora mesmo :)
She's bomb
I love her so much
vc q é uma bomba
Yay! Another LGBT fan!
This is visual magic. Like I feel like I'm watching a spell being cast through the use of vague images and arm movements and it's amazing
This was the comment I was looking for, somebody tell me more about how the imagery is created.
I honestly find Banks to be one of the most beautiful humans both spiritually and physically. Like I just want to fall in love with her and love her forever. I don't even know her, and maybe we wouldn't get along, but I can just sense something magical abuot her. She's incredible.
rockwjz well put...
LITERALLY ALL OF HER MUSIC VIDS ARE SO GORGEOUS
totally agree!! these high quality productions and perfect editing gives me the chills
+Cooc Lidoo yessssssssssss 😝😝😝😝😝
Yaasss
Ok she needs to drop another album soon because I can't get enough of her music. I absolutely love her sound, she's great.
Yeh she getting ready to release a new album soon!
+ProMarketing! tots!
+Soccer Mad BELIEVE NEW EP CALLED LONDON DROPS WITHIN A FEW WEEKS!
Christopher CJX Joseph She already released her London EP lol
+ProMarketing! ????
Even after five years, Brain is still easily one of my top three favorite songs. BANKS, you're wonderful!
Whats your 1 and 2? Just curious. You have good taste
@@moonlitet I’m a big fan of Welcome Home by Radical Face and Cosmic Love by Florence&TheMachine.
Heard this song again for the first time in years. Still as great as I remember
Banks makes me wanna sob, drink a whole bottle of rum and then go slap the fuck out of my ex. God. I love her.
*cum
i feel the exact same way.
Jesse McKay OH MY
Savannah Rae don't do it!!! I did! I ended up naked passed out in his yard.
JoEY Bouyer girl what the hell!!
i feel so high everytime i listen to this song
ikr
I am high everytime I listen to this song, numbs the pain that would come from listening to it sober
+Notorious true that lmao
I listen to it sober because pain is life.
H.C. Regalado some handle pain better than others ma friend
Why the fuck isn't this song more popular? Masterpiece.
Mad I showed up like 7 years too late to her completely
She's so melancholic. I love when her music hits that spot of sadness I feel. Really makes what I'm feeling valid and relayable through music
THIS
Im back 8 yrs later & rhis song WILL ALWAYS be a vibe 🥹 she need her flowers for this masterpiece 🌹🌷🪻💐
Wow this is great to listen while you drive in a dark night!
yes, it really is, down a dark middle of nowhere road. :D
i think that will be great too!
11 months after hearing this song for the first song, it STILL gives me goosebumps and teary eyes
+Sharon Boo A sense of nostalgia, correct? or is it just me. Like listening to this, I feel like I've heard it before in another time.
That's Banks for ya. I'm getting goosebumps as I listen to her and write this...This song is just... Perfection.
Sharon Boo 2018!
The editor of this video it's a FUCKING GENIUS!
Gema Zavala Yeah I’m so jealous!! Wish I knew how to do this kind of stuff! Amazing...
Like fallen leaves dancing in the wind, a heart that doesn't clear up is like the devil's whisper that will come someday.
I've known this song for over a year because it's fucking amazing and depicts the eventful progression of soft emotion to and explosion of frustration so well. BANKS is phenomenally talented. Whoever this "pole dancer" is that made this song all that more known, props to her.
I'm like obsessed with this!
Me too! ^O^
👍👍👍
I thought i was the only one.... Lol
Lol
Agreed.
Jillian has grown so much in these years: The maturity in her voice, the quality of the lyrics and her music. But that's just the way she's been since 2014. She has been always a global treasure.

how about Lana Del Ray?
***** I forgot to mention her too, Lana Del Rey does sound a lot like her too.
thank god im not the only person who knows about Little Dragon
Jordan McDonald I'm with you, all these youngster are only into these rat infected artist like Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, 1D, etc., I prefered these singers who are not well known like her.
***** I agree with both of ya'll. The generation of today has no idea what's real music. I'm in love with underground artists, they're are the best...and secretly unstoppable.
The production on this track is sensational!
When I die, this song is probably going to flash before my eyes. It's so freaking beautiful.
😂 ❤
Rediscovering her music has been the highlight of my night
Send this song to the the radio stations worldwide,so it can destroy some musical careers! :D
I'm loving her sound, it's gonna be a good year for her!
Still my favorite song of hers. I listen to this when I'm in dark place. It helps me release my emotions. xx
This song + weed = heaven
PREACH
Emanuel Valenciano ye i found this song blazed , shazamed ut right away :D

Emanuel Valenciano 🔥🔥🔥
That moment when someone you've been supporting from day one makes their dreams come true and you're just marveling at her raw talent and grace😊 she's my idol, since 2013😀 Jillian Banks, you're finally here!!!!!!😀
I just can't stop listening to this song....just AMAZING!!! Love you my Bankss
This song is so comforting, yet eery, yet beautiful. I've been listening to it for awhile now. Seriously my favorite by her.
My wife introduced me to this song. One of the many reasons why I love her is her taste in music.
I saw a pole dancer on my Facebook page smoking a bong and dancing to this song and I'm obsessed with this song.
Me too. She was beautiful.
Me too for facebook!! I like this song
Her name is Soren High
I saw it too. Thats why i looked this song up. She did a good job tho.
Chosen Light Awesome! Really great job she do. Thx
OK I should probably stop hearing this it's been on replay for the past 3 hours

+Lola Lopes

+FeebFilms pretty much me every time I hear a new Banks song
Trust. I've been listening her whole album on repeat for a year now.
I have been listening to this song for years. Whenever I get new headphones this is one of the first songs I listen to because it is so dynamic and the fucking bass is incredible. Banks Brain for the win.

Same here
Same here 😂
facebook.com/video.php?v=730803910325185
Same here ^^
I love all of her songs, but I keep coming back to this one, despite having known it for years. It's seriously so powerful.
I remember listening to this with my first love 6 or 7 years ago. Him intruducing me to banks, was one of the first impressions. Wish him all the best.
This gives me a weird [nice] inner feel.
With headphones, it's more intense. it's amazing !
Omfg true😭
Yass!!
I totally agree in my beats it's amazing
Omfg so true 🤣💯
Who is here in 2021? Love Jillian !! Her voice is beautiful
Who’s still listening in 2021? I come back to this song every time my relationships inevitably fail 😓
haha, I call this my break up detoxing somebody album. 2 weeks and I'm over it
I adore this song, due to the lovely and mental meaning beyond the surface. It is incredibly deep and ear-catching, the lyrics are beautiful and they have a healthy meaning, if I can call it like that. I actually find myself in all her songs, because they are life-related and they even catch my soul, I love her so much :) Her songs are pure gold and pure intelligence!
probably my favorite song. I give it a lot of airplay and the sound immersion is just beautiful. And she's got a beautiful voice.
Still one of the GOATs!
Fuck oath. Well before Lana well before marina. She is the OG
@@joshuafoster8726 so true!
Banks is everything.
I hope she gives a major shoutout to that chick pole dancing on facebook because I instantly picked up this album after hearing this track. Banks has my vote so far for R&B album of the year. I didnt feel the need to skip one track. Amazing album and great production.
She's alternative not r&b but yes the album is great!
Why would she shoutout the pole dancer plenty of people knew and loved this song before her haha who cares about how you discovered it. That's u dude. Anyways I agree about album of the year although FKA twigs and the weeknd were also really great
Gabby Port Chill out if you cared to notice a lot of people have commented on the pole dancer and then begin brought to this video alot.
Gabby Port i would have never know about this artists music if it wasnt for the bad ass dancer..she is wonderfully talanted and interpreted banks beautifully and tastefully expressed.
OMG she's so amazing!
My favorite singer right now. Loving the new album.
I found her at a time when I started to awaken to my Goddess self. It is a pleasure to sit still and hear your innerself in lyrics, but it is beautiful to see yourself in another. She is dynamic. I am dynamic, and that makes us powerful! Cheers to the Divine Feminine magical❤
This and 'Change' have described my last abusive relationship... to the fucking T that I will forever have her and these songs tattooed to my soul.
+Cheyenne Allard chill
I want her vocals to seep into my ear drums and slide down my throat so I can ingest it.
Wow. Lol
I couldn't agree more Rustin.
Same!!
Same!!
rOFL
the production on this tune is still ridiculous
ughhh i just love that she’s talking major SHIT in this song. whoever that boy is she dragged him to the front and back
I would love to see her and Massive Attack do a track. OMG that eargasm would be so strong.
Tweet IG facebook this shit!!! Yassss
Like fine wine, just keeps getting better with age on it .
This is my favorite from her
I come back to this song every month. The intensity is breathtaking
literally cant keep my eyes off of any Banks video
My word...Her music just connects with every part of my body. She is too good
I always come back to Banks!
Banks you are a woman of true intimacy. I wish everyone would see how you can confront yourself through your music and how we can relate. Amazing
She's fucking beautiful
She's 100% a Goddess. I'm speechless
I agree.
STILL LISTENING.. (After literally over 1000 replays.) Who's the same :')
HAHAHA ME DUDE
calvinnwoohoo ohh dude i cant stop with this song and drowning and waiting game. love her
calvinnwoohoo yh me to me a my girl
For this album it's Brain -> Goddess -> Drowning 😍
calvinnwoo fav song ever
Your music is unique. This song is so beautiful. I've played it more 10 people's fingers can count.
She has such a unique sound that is just so beautiful. I've started listening to a lot more alternative and indie kind of music, because all that shit they play on the radio is just garbage.
yuup!
Agreed
This is too true
Agreed friend
Although Banks sound is actually more R&B than many ppl think.
Cant stop repeating this! Who else!!?
***** I saw her live yesterday! Except you could see on her face that she was sad because she could only sing three songs since she was having technical difficulties. :/
+GRFX me too, my fav part is when she says that "i can see you struggling, boy don't hurt your brain"
Soren High sent me here years ago with her amazing pole dance routine... been hooked on her ever since. Glad to see that shows in the U.S are using her songs. Her concept of music is pure and amazing ❤️😩❤️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Cadê os Brasileiros Loucos por BANKS? 💗💁🏻
Essa música é fudida!
I'm like in another space when listening to this with my headphone and full screen, the music video is goddamn awesome. it suits with the song. Why did i just found Banks? I think I'm a fan now.
I've been listening to this song almost every days in the last year. She's a drug
+TheWowwa Yes! headphones on full blast is a must!
+23jasmy fucking yesssssss. i even sleep to her now
That's what I have been doing in the last year!! I can't relax without her ❤️
I bet this shit takes you to another level when you're faded.
it does lol
Helllllll yeahhh
Lmao. Real Shit.
About to find out right now lol
Lol it sounds weird af
Lord Banks has blessed us with this iconic gospel hymn
underrated and so dope
listening to her is an experience
This is completely beautiful in every way. Overwhelmingly so
this is the song that made me get into banks.. miss this style of music
I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND AND ACCEPT THAT SHE IS NOT BIG her talent is unreal
FR
Trippy music video tho
Definitely one of the best songs of 2014, so far.
T amo banks 🖤🖤
This song is my anthem. I had my first break up and wasn’t able/wanted to cry, but this song helped me let out all my emotions like it always has.
THE WAY SHE MOVES HER BODY ...GODDESS
Banks owes a big TY to Stoner pole dancer cuz she brought me here too. Im stuck on this now !!!!!
It's not just the "Stoner pole dancer" she 'owes thanks' to, the Weeknd is mainly responsible since he picked up on her music and brought her on tour.
That statement is subjective, Banks is barely on the rise and the Weeknd left a path for her to follow.
She def does
***** The aforementioned video brought my here and I am now hooked on this song. I will also explore other songs by Banks as well. I disagree with your statement that The Weeknd is 1-Dimensional. I've been following the Weeknd for years and his recent success in the mainstream music following has been great for his career! Listen to his old mix-tapes grouped up into Trilogy, Loft Music is a personal favorite. Then listen to his album Kiss Land and the variance he portrays in his music. Pretty and Odd Look from Kiss Land are favorites as well. Either way, The Weeknd has a lot of talent, and his future is bright. Hopefully Banks will find great success as well.
Her name is Soren high
одно из лучших сочетаний звука и картинки
Can't believe I have been listening to this song for two years
4 years now
9 years
Masterpiece.
God bless production. This song sounds amazing
Playing this on repeat because this entire song is my current mood and it helps me process my emotions.
Makes you want to fight fuck and cry all at the same time, my heart goes out to the mfs who’s heart she broke
You don't hear her voice, you feel it.
I love how she just rips this guy to pieces and tells him not to hurt his brain, like he isn't capable of thinking for himself. Individuality always trumps conformity. Always!
Maybe I should send these lyrics to my ex... :)
This song can literally never get old
I fucking love the way the intensity builds in her voice as the track rolls on. Absolute genius.
