Jessie Ware: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 04. 2015
- Young, soulful English singer Jessie Ware has a powerful voice, but it's used with grace. Her singing brings warmth to electronic music and swoon to her own pop, so it's no surprise that her visit to the Tiny Desk was filled with casual poise and spontaneity.
Ware's dramatic nightclub shows are fleshed out with a full band, but here she's able to convey all that emotion with just a guitarist (Joe Newman) and that voice. To add to the casual flair of the day, Jesse Boykins III - the opening act on a tour which brought her through Washington, D.C. - came to watch the Tiny Desk, and Ware asked him to sing with her, unrehearsed. That confident ambition seeps right through the screen in this performance. -- BOB BOILEN

Jessie Ware in 2015: I need to get more upbeat sh*t
Jessie Ware in 2020-2021: OUR CURRENT DISCO QUEEN
Her new album is all kinds of FABULOUS 😍
100% fact
She got crazy good
Her music keeps leveling up
That! Feels! Good
Jessie should be an international Superstar. She has THE voice, the Class and the Professionalism. She is incredible in so many ways. Get her the money and fame so she can spread music and joy forever and on and on an on ...
But she’s not hot
I’ve never understood why she is not more widely known in the United States. She is absolutely one of the most talented artists of our time
There's one major reason but I won't be the one to say it.
JW not about all those flash and gadgets and gossip news and things that American loves
@@thetrickisirarelyrespond5945say it pls... I genuinely don't know
Not hot
Her charm is unreal. I don't know if I prefer listening to her talk or sing. They're both sublime.
Indeed
Bring Jessie back for another tiny desk after the release of That! Feels Good!
Tiny Desk needs a streaming radio station. The acoustic version of these songs are superb!
Eugene Jones yesssss!
It doesn’t have all the concerts but found quite a few on google podcast
I concur!!!
I second that!!
I want a Tiny Desk music festival
There's something in British water..their musicians are casually out of this world good. *shiver* :3
Its the tea 🍵
+ayanada06 haha! I love that you also watch this , xo Rania
+Amani Imani heh, then I should start drinking more English tea :P :)
Rania El Mugammar Same! xx
+ayanada06 why it's so good is clearly on show here ;)
I'm here for Jesse Boykins III, but damn this lady can sing!!!
Backup vocal was excellent. Beautiful compliment, not overpowering.
Raymond Alexander he gonna overpower her later from the back.
Haha. Man, why's it gotta be like that...
loool there is always that one guy that has to lower the tone. Standards
Raymond Alexander agreed!
Raymond Alexander perfect, spot on
she's so effortlessly cool and chic
Don't you mean thic?
I love how simple she dresses and how humble she is. Her voice is just there. And there's so much emotion behind it. She doesn't even have to gesture to make it interesting. (IE hands in pockets the whole time). Lol love it!
its her style not her character - look at her some 2-3 years ago
She has a great elegance. Well-made up, with this slight touch of neglect which makes her even really charmfull. An art in himself (I am French ;))
I didn't think she was dressed simple, she looked very fashionable.
She's 30 years old in this video, and so graceful.
I love how she just tugged at Jessie Boykins III to be with her at the mic, like they're siblings 😊
Omg I had no idea that she did a tiny desk concert. I love her! Wildest Moments will always be iconic
The back up vocals are so beautiful.... wow
Vania Noguez You should check his work. He is called Jesse Boykins III. There should be several vids on youtube.
Vania Noguez Yes Jesse Boykins III is phenomenal.
DaveDEF82 he's awesome, sound tracks are just like deep base
+DaveDEF82 Seconded, he's really good. I was so surprised when I saw him here.
I actually click because i saw JB3 in the background.. I was shocked to see him. One of my favorite artist.. Very Underrated Artist.. Hes a pioneer in this game.. He Should've already had his NPR moment!..🤔
I’ve probably watched this 50 times 5 years ago and here I am again in 2021... get goosebumps every time! !
Same here, one of my favorite tiny desk
same
i knew she was a good singer but i didn't know she's this good.
acoustic versions really bring her voice out and it's lovely.
Hossein Cullen true that
For real. She is amazing.
I remember in 2015 I sat in the park consistently every morning for 2 weeks listening to Jessie Ware & cried my heart out! Helped me get over a break up. This woman is like fine wine & jazz smoke 💫
what a touching memory! music is pure magic and very healing
I would not have been mad if Jesse Boykins got his own mic and stayed up there a while longer. He brought some really great harmonies on this
+Royal James Did you hear Jesse Boykins Tiny desk? He has one that he did in New Orleans.. Really good job
+Rochell Jones I cnt find it. Send a link please

Absolutely agree, I wish I heard him more; Fantastic back up vocals.
Only recently discovered Jessie Ware. What a voice. Such a joy to listen to.
BRING HER BACK!!!!
jessie`s new album is out there so i think its time to bring her again, just saying....
These Tiny Desk Concerts are like an ear orgasm.
Sarah Holzapfel I’m addicted
An Eargasm, new word, first heard here :-)
Indeed ♥️
invite Jessie again with her latest album That! Feels Good! she has grown so much!
That emotion on that man's face as he sings tho....makes me tear up. So beautiful, the both of them.
I saw Boykins, clicked, love him...discovered her...love her.
This is the best Saturday night I had in years.... just drinking bourbon and watching NPR TINY DESKS tank and bangas, Christian Scott, Lianne and now Jessie with Jesse, smh sad or beautiful idk but I can't stop smiling
Beautiful
I feel ya Amelia Badelia (sp?)
Doing the same thing, same vibe, whiskey, 3 years after your Saturday night. Pretty beautiful
@Sean N hahahaha
So beautiful. She seems like she has a wonderful personality, as well, which is equally as beautiful as her singing.
Jesse Boykins has the answers. Can't wait till he's able to slay one of these on his own!
Humble and beautiful guitar tone. Also, Jessie Ware kills.
14 minutes of pure bliss.
Cant get enough of this rendition of champagne kisses
Special stuff
Is it just me or has her demeanour, the way she speaks and how she looks has changed massively, yeah I know this was 8 years ago but still, crazy!
the first song is eternal. they somehow managed to capture the emotions in music, the way music should transfer emotions.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this version of "champagne kisses"
she is fucking phenomenal!
She is a Goddess! her voice is so angelic but also so raw! Hard to come by these days
How could I have been sleeping on Jessie all this time!
Hes getting a beautiful tone out of that guitar - amazing.
I just love her voice its makes me cry. Jessie ware you are awesome
Acoustic sessions of any singer is the best type to bring out how raw and beautiful their voice is. The version of Say you love me is full of emotions, my heart cried. .
Some amazing harmonies on the first one.
This woman is wonderful. I got the chance to here her speak at a seminar. She's genuinely humble especially for someone with so much talent💗
I keep coming back for this version of champagne kisses... It's just so good
The lower register of Champagne Kisses is dope as hell. Jessie just love me please.
Something about her music seems to have me on the verge of tears but with the butterflies. She's so great.
always been obsessed with this song...finding out it was done alongside Ed Sheran...makes so much sense why it's as brilliant as it is. These two are unstoppable.
So. . .HONESTLY. . .Jessie and Jesse should record this together! I have probably listened to it 100 times in the last 2 months! My goodness. How beautiful that they never practiced this and made this magic!
Its 2023. I had never heard of Jessie Ware. But I heard 'Begin Again' on a Jools Holland night. The song & arrangements , with the singers is just so delightful. The song goes around in my head, day in day out. I repeat play it especially in the car. Now I am a Jessie fan & getting to like the up beat style of her music.
Thankyou Jessie
Always astonished how the British accents disappears when British people sing. Amazing.
Uh, actually I listen to all type of singers from all genres and cultures. It's just the British artists I particularly recall didn't have the accent when singing.
Or did I interpret your statement incorrectly?
Yes me too. The accent goes away when they sing.
So I'm NOT alone in my observation. Thanks, Badb.
The accent does not spontaneously disappear when they sing. Many English vocalists deliberately change their accent when they sing to sound differently.
I love everything about her ... her voice, her writing, her style, how humble she just stands there and full on blows our minds like it’s nothing
I saw Jessie and Jesse just casually sing background vocals and I CLICKED SO FAST!!!!
This is on repeat on my phone! Can't get enough of this performance. Why don't artists like her do stripped-down albums? I would buy it immediately!
Such a beautiful voice. I like her better in the setting with the guitar. She sounds so pure and honest. This voice doesn’t need any embellishment 👍🏼
How have I missed this gem of a concert!!!
Oh my goodness. Jessie...Jesse what's up. That was crazy good. Way better than what we hear on the radio most of the time. I read a lot of comments like this. This time it's me been blown away
I love her stripped down sound much better. Her voice doesn't need all that overproduced popped out junk.
Man her voice is amazing and she's so beautiful..
why do these angels keep making pop music...such a beautiful voice
00:51 Say You Love Me
5:32 Wildest Moments (FAVORITE OMG ^.^)
9:43 Champagne Kisses
Jessie Ware is so effortlessly incredible! ❤️
I love Jessie with all of my heart, soul, being, mind and spirit.
SWEETDEE007 facts!!
Wow, this is beautiful, and I love Jesse Boykins III is included in this. I'd love to see him have his own Tiny Desk Concert!
Introducing yr partners onstage first thing - class act, lady. ^_^
Thank you Jessie, for introducing me to Jesse...
*Heart eyes* to both of you!
Her voice is simply Love!
It's heart ache, hope, honesty and happiness all in one.
Watching her perform live just made my bucket list.
I wish his harmony would pop out more!! I love this.
I found him distracting and some of his choices to be big misses. He was a last minute addition so I'll chalk it up to a lack of preparedness.
That first song really speaks to my soul. I love the delicate balance between the singers. They are amazing together.
she's amazing
her voice.... i felt heaven
Good Lord!!!! She's even better live!
ANd the backup singer...YES!
Gorgeous. Jesse Boykins III, extra gorgeous. Lovely voices.
The first song sounded like a movie soundtrack 💙🎶
Don't sleep on the homie Jesse Boykins III with crazy vocals too!
Stunning voice
I can't get over the sound of her voice. Consider me a new fan.
I literally fancy her so much... voice, attitude, smile... damn. Hot.
Sarah Roanna Martin i've got to say she's beautiful
Wonderful !
Instant chills when she starts singing... 🤗💕
Had no idea she wrote "Say You Love Me" with Ed Sheeran 😍
I just heard Wildest Moments for the first time today & have played it on repeat for hours now.
One thing I love about Tink Desk is that they don’t wait for National coverage, Fame or fortune. They reward good talent all of the time! Peace to you!
im just blown away, Jessie sounds even better live..what a voice♥
Her voice is magical.
her vocal control is out of this world.
Just keep coming back to this magnificent performance. This is the video that introduced me to this humble, beautiful woman. And Jesse Boykins III is without parallel-- not just in these impromptu harmonies, but in his own right. Big love for this piece of magic ✌
I love how soft his voice is behind hers.
Her eyes are just stunning.
gosh I LOVE her
I love how positive every single comment is on NPR! always puts a smile on my face. Keep it up people
Jessie is beautiful inside and out and Jesse Boykins compliments her voice beautifully
October 2022, been listening to this since 2016 and still can't get enough! Jessie just does not get enough credit
I've been a massive fan of Jesse Boykins and fml he killed. Holly shit his tone and even his volume was perfect. Plus he looks like he admires her.
okay i literally played this video five times in a row. i don't ever want to stop listening to her voice
I just found out Jessie with her "Midnight" and it mesmerized me. She's one of the greatest jazz singers. I really love 💕😘 her. Kissing from Me from Mexico city
Her voice constantly leaves you wanting more
Imagine she doing one of these with her new style, literally heaven 😍😍
8 años pasaron rápido y que bella voz
I am in love with Jessie, her spirit, her vibes, and her super amazing voice, its incredible.
im in love with this woman... She is so beautiful
I honestly love her so much . One of my favorite women from across the pond
was introduced to jessie ware in maybe '13 when 2AM Club covered Wildest Moments on their album. Been crazy to watch the evolution in her musical expression.
