      At this point, I'm choosing to believe she doesn't know how to do any song the same way twice. Because I still try to sing along with the studio version in my head, but Ms Keen is always like "Nah!" 💀

      I can respect your opnion but dont agree. I dont think this version would have got the radio play like the original. But I appreciate how she's always transforming her music which is how 5 star hotel became a favorite of mine. I think the live version she did on Steven Coberts show was the best version of Escapism I've seen thus far.

    I'm a massive Raye fan. She's only one of a handful of artists who's performances are just mesmerising to watch. Each performance is different - intentionally so. Her mastery of music is insane. Her passion for having real instruments and not recorded backing tracks. Real singers encouraged to perform to the very best that they can and the end results are like watching a full opera of emotions. All the while staying grounded to get London roots, singing in her London accent. Her sheer joy of performing is infectious and electric.

  • @josemanuelescuderorivera4281

    This performance is not wasted, from the dark and dramatic beginning, to the incorporation of the orchestra for each stanza, and without a doubt, her voice: RAYE is a Queen ❤
