Always brings something different to her live performance. Incredible.

Her recent Royal Albert hall performance just cemented her place in history along side the very best names in the craft, it will be talked about in the same reverence as the Nina Simone's etc of this world without question in years to come and the icing on the cake is she did it on an independent vibe, maximum respect from this music fan.🔥😎👌

This was great. She's such a talent.

[christmemea]

god she NEEDS to release this version on streaming services

[karibear]

I love that she does a new version every time she performs this song. Brilliant lady.

[cherylconvery]

Wow. RAYE. That was something else. What an exceptionally talented young lady. Outstanding performance and absolutely love her new ‘take’ on what was already such an amazing song 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Brilliant. Best show in AGES.

I love how the piano player can't keep his eyes off her. He knows she's phenomenal.

She's my favorite 😍

How the pianist is admiring her. She´s a real GODESS. I´m watching this performance on loop atm cause it´s insanely good. Have´nt seen anything like this in a long time. I love her so much. This song, every lyric of it goes right into my heart and it hurts just like a year ago when I first heard it. The depression is trying to kill me, but I know I´m stronger. Thank you for your music RAYE. Sometimes it´s keeping me alive and killing me at the same time. Your wounds are healing mine. And I deeply want to thank you for that. If you´re really 26 than I´m even more amazed. Because I´m also 26 and love to sing and went through hell and back. But I never believed that I really could sing because I´m such a perfectionist just like everyone in my family. So I only sang alone. Only now I´m trying to show my voice to people that want to hear it and really listen to thw worlds I´m saying. Noone really listens in this world. But I hear you. Thank you, again.

[mysteryconfidential-true-crime]

I hope this video becomes YouTube iconic and hits a million plus views. Great performance.

Flawless. Simply flawless! She is such a talent! ❤❤❤

[anomalees]

strains of Amy Winehouse. miss her but Raye is rare. She is a sensual, unapologetic diva in training.

[martinmcdonald]

Great night for RAYE and the rest of us too. Happy Hootenanny everybody. Slainte.

[joannesmith]

Absolutely love this girl. Raye you are amazing and have such a beautiful voice. I’ve been listening to your music about 6 years on YouTube and I knew you was special back then. You deserve everything you want in life x

[kosmos]

That was beautiful but at the same time sad and nostalgic as well. This music, this attitude, this carefree during the performance. Every time a new version of the song, a song that even though it explodes on tiktok it's not shit… that’s why I love Raye

[maddie]

Raye is always different and beautiful ✨🖤
