For anyone that's interested in the location this is shot, it's in the Le Marais neighborhood in Paris in the intersection of Rue de Poitou and Rue Pastourelle.

Even better than the studio version. WOW. This woman is magic..

[retrovelcro]

mmmm this guitar is so gritty, so good. and her voice just sinks so deep into it.

[tycho_m]

That travis picking is awesome. It takes proper skills to sound like this! Amazing!

[Dreverhaven]

Whenever I hear this song, I have tears in my eyes.

And NO, I'm not unhappy, I'm rich, I'm popular and successful.

but whenever I hear this song, I have tears in my eyes.

I love it.

Waste all your time writing love songs, but you don't love me
All too familiar when it feels wrong
I think you're just lonely
Do you mind?
I found another new way to look at
Use your time, to pack away your every verse and every rhyme
Forget, all the words that let you break my heart
Forget, that I'm the person tearing you apart!
Remember way back when you played me
I lost that hand
So please don't try serenade me
I am a one man band
Say goodbye
Don't need to hear you play
So many other ways to relax
So pack away your every verse and every rhyme
Forget, all the words that let you break my heart!
Forget, that I'm the person tearing you apart!
Forget, all the words that let you break my heart!
Forget, that I'm the person tearing you apart!
I think it's time for me to leave
But I gave this piece of mind for free
So if you hear my sound advice, there is no need to tell you twice
There is no need to tell you twice!
Forget, all the words that let you break my heart!
Forget, that I'm the person tearing you apart!
Forget, all the words that let you break my heart!
Forget, that I'm the person tearing you apart!
So if you hear my sound advice, there is no need to tell you twice!

[Cabse]

The sheer strident attitude in this performance is just to die for!
A true blues artist!

This musicians abilities are beyond words, the video captures a lot of the essence we don't normally get. Beautiful and amazing are too simple of words.

She is beautiful but its the music that makes you fall in love with her, said a blind man

[UaYXxB]

Liane La Havas can really put her stamp on a neighborhood. Perhaps she lives in Paris? I've seen 2 vids now of her performing a song as she walks a Paris can definitely manage the subtleties of performance while keeping a weather eye around her of circumstances she needs to skirt.

[reanukeeves]

what a confidence
just fell in love <3

[kyronnyoung]

This is real music. she has a beautiful voice. very great singer. love the lyrics to this song. They are very relatable.

[metal-beard]

God. This could be the official music video for the song. Very well shot.

[kc.dia.]

The way I'm just smiling rewatching this after years. That little "motorbike" she says at the end ahha

[SimonHeimbuchner]

[Devhour]

A man must share this lovely song. I LOVE YOUR VOICE!

[alexzen]

11 years and still this version of the song is living in my brain.

[calebcook]

This song has such a strut to it. She's so cool!

[Juelzever]

A national treasure to be kept safe. Just a jaw dropping performance.
