Came back in 2024. I love this rendition and I LOVE BANKS. ❤
She gives it a totally different vibe, like a dark one and totally different type of sound, obviously..... I love it.
The way she uses her voice man!
Aaliyah is smiling up in heaven! Great job I loved this
Sorry to break it to you, but heaven is just make up believe..
Jamie Best I personally do not believe in heaven or hell but you cannot tell someone that believes in it to not believe.
Kyle Pascoe I did not tell them not to believe, I told them its not real.
Jamie Best You realize you are just as annoying as people that stand on a street corner yelling shit about God and religion right? You are just the opinion on the opposite side of the spectrum. No one wants debates about religios beliefs on a youtube music video. Just enjoy the art, k? :)
Onlyrealmusic4life I do, though I feel the same way with the comment in that they are screaming god down my throat, I just replied back without being offensive, just realistic. Don't like the fact, don't live in this world go get killed and go to heaven if its such a good place.
Banks you are my best kept secret.
I saw "Aaliyah Cover" and got scared because that's some serious territory to tread but I give props, BANKS made it her own. #brayvo
+Kemara Night she gave me chills with this! Her talent is seriously insane and I hope she gets hella big!
+Kemara Night I am so pleasantly surprised. I was so prepared to come down here and say something on the lines of "how dare you!" She really did her thing, though
+Bria D ditto
So? She's just Aaliyah.
Kemara Night I agree
I honestly wasn't sure what to expect when I saw that she was doing a cover of this song, but I'm so pleasantly surprised. She really made it her own, while still keeping to the original vibe. LOVE.
Totally agree with you!
Damn she's slaying.
Aaliyah would love this
Never heard of her before today, now I'm a fan.
Vocalists on acoustic covers will separate real "talent" from the rest.
SHE BANGED THISSSSS
Banks is goddamn incredible.
- okay i was obsessed with banks before this . as well as aaliyah & this is just some next level ish ; this makes my heart melt , banks you're a goddess 😭🌹 .
This is just sooooo good, Aaliyah would be proud, good job Banks.
I wasn't expecting it to be this amazing
Banks did her thing with this!
Sacred ground but done beautifully
BANKS add this to spotify!!!!!
I've officially found my new favorite artist. Not many can pull off an Aaliyah cover and not sound like their trying too hard or have the nerve to try to suggest that they have more talent by proving they can't hold a note
😭😭😭😭😭Aaliyah is my favorite of all time thank you so much BANKS😭😭😭
The best Aaliyah cover I've heard
7 years late to this, damn! They need to put this on spotify!!!!
YES!
i dont really listen to acoustic version of songs but this pretty good.
I’m here 7 years later vibing still
33 people are not that somebody
I was 14 years old when AAliyah sing Are you that somebody back in 1998 i was middle school this the 2nd Aalyiah cover that i heard so far and i love it It's not carbon copy.
Too sick. I'm a fan. Now 3rd song I've heard from her. She's nice.
I love this her voice is amazing
Wow... Would not have thought Banks would do a cover like this. I like it a lot! One of my favorite Aaliyah songs.
you should hear her sing Lauryn Hill Live. AMAZING!!
this is one of those rare times when I wish I could thumbs something up more than once ! so beautiful
GIRL YAAAAAAAAASSS!!!!
I think Aaliyah would have approved.
AfekasiFab agreed
Definitely
Definitely
Hell yeah! Lol
I think you're wilin but go off
Heard her sing this at Bonnaroo this summer... So incredible!
i'm so happy that this exists.
Always coming back to this cover I luv u Jillian
Still love this cover. One of the best #teamAALIYAH 😍
This is a legit Aaliyah cover. Nothing but love girl. 1
amazing. did aaliyah justice
as a hardcore aaliyah fan i approve this love it
words can't describe how much i'm in love with BANKS
She just won me over. This is FLAWLESS! #TeamBANKS
ONE OF THE BEST COVERS EVER!
One of my favorite songs of the 90's. Thank you for this!
I'm feeling this cover. This sound amazing. I know Aaliyah would've proud of this. This as an amazing feel to it. To mess with a classic dangerous.
Ugh her voice sounds sweet on any song but her covers and references to hip hop are so
I've been listening to the original all day today. I decided to look up covers for it and saw that one of my favorite singers, Banks made a cover! This is amazing!!!!1
AMAZING! This is one of my favorite songs! You just made it more awesome!
Aaliyah has been my favourite since her very beginning. Banks has been also been a favourite since her very beginning. The two melded together=YES👏🏼🔥
I'm a 90s kid and a huge Aaliyah fan.
I was lucky enough experience and enjoy Aaliyah's talent before she died.
With that said, I'd be the first one how to say "OH HELL NO!" if somebody failed at covering one of her songs--
but THIS?
Banks did an EXCELLENT job with this cover!
Boy,
I've been Watching You
Like a hawk in the sky
That flies,
And You were my prey

You can't tell nobody
I'm talking bout nobody
Are you responsible?

Cause I really need somebody
Tell me are you that somebody, Eh
Eheheheheheh Eh Eh...
Boy,
Won't you pick me up at the park right now
Up the block while everyone
Sleep, Sleep, Sleep
I'll be waiting there
With my trench, my lugz, My hat
Just so I'm low key
If you tell the world
Oh Boy,
See I'm trusting you
With my Heart, my Soul
I probably shouldn't letcha, If I
If I,
If I let you know
You can't tell nobody
I'm talking bout nobody
I hope you responsible
Boy you betta watch my body
I'm not just anybody
Is it my go, Is it your go
Sometimes I'm a goody goody
Right now I'm a naughty naughty
Say yes or say no
Cause I really need somebody
Tell me are you that somebody, Eh
Eheheheheheh Eh Eh...
Baby girl,
I'm the girl from the big LA
But you come play around my way
And listen to what I gotta say
UK
You've been down from the start
That's why you got my heart
Ever since we departed

Cause I really need somebody
Tell me are you that somebody, Eh
If I let you know
You can't tell nobody
I'm talking bout nobody
I hope you're responsible
Boy you betta watch my body

You are literally perfect.
Beautiful
Def in love with this.
A cover that I keep listening to everyday. I simply love it, the voice, the simplicity in the instruments used, it's just perfect. I loved Aaliyah and this song reminds me of her. You should really try to make other covers of Aaliyah like 'If your girl only knew' or 'We need a resolution'.
Aaliyah x BANKS 😍😍🔥🔥🔥 This Gave Me Chills..
Pure talent
Banks: amazing!
I was hesitant when I saw this pop up in my recommended, but this was great. I love You Aaliyah. I hope she loves this as much as I did.
Brilliant !! Brilliant!! What a great work!!
