  • If John Legend sung the Bible then everyone would listen

  • John legend is an inspiration. Period.

  • The great part about John Legend is when he performs live it competes with his studio recordings, something that is sadly very rare with today's musicians. 

    It is coming to the point where there are "singers" with true talent, and just "entertainers" with little more behind their vocals than a producer's editing software...

  • This song sounds like it can be used in a musical!

    It'd be cool if John's songs were used in musicals!! They're perfect for them. =)

  • @aGwEENapple especially the piano sounds very musical-like

  • such a powerful song really has meaning when someone you truly care about leaves.

  • As long as John Legend stays here with us. I'm fine. He such an amazing singer/song writer.

  • what a great and nice voice with love, reminds me Marvin Gaye...I love you both..

  • I wish he wouldn't be legend, cause man still need the blues and god has already took too much blues form us.

  • Can never listen to this song with dry eyes!!

  • Go check out my cover of this song on my Chanel!! I promise you'll love it!

    SephAndSongs

  • This song makes me think about my mom... she's been gone for 5yrs... i miss her so much.. seems like i just lost my only friend.. r.i.h Marilyn love you

  • BEAUTIFULLL !!

    Songg mkes meee cry

    iljohnlegendddd <3

  • when i listen to his songs it feels like every word comming out of his mouth is running through my veins

  • definitely my favorite song by him

  • ill leave the light on so she'll come back someday...

  • Very nice voice!

  • makes me miss my ex!

  • john is the best

  • it's amazing! go! attack! mwah! mwah! mwah!u

  • definitely one of my favorites bro!

  • my favourite song :)

  • An authentic genius and saviour of music, a breeze of fresh air from rappers and black eyed peas generic crap.

  • @rael2099 i hate the black eyed peas! all they do is make garbage.

  • One of my favorites, i think Johns expression is out of this world, i also thinks he invented the word ''romance''.

  • John is simply PERFECT!

  • i just got high and listened to this.. thinking of past younglove. when it was real...

  • this sonq is simply fantast!C. love the way he sinqz iT.

  • no words,, just great

  • John is truly a Legend

  • cette music donne envi de l'ecouter avec l'amour de sa vie quel chanson encore

  • great performance

  • I hope my baby is still around!!!!!!

  • wow... fantastic singer,great song.

    just amazing.

  • This is a smooth song that you can just sit back and relax

  • It's not that hard to sing this song, but no one can sing it the way John can. I mean I can sing it and it sounds clear, but not anywhere near the original (maybe that's why he's a singer and I'm not :D). This guy sings with a lot of heart and devotion, and with love for the music. That's why he's one of the best

  • My GF didnt come home on her lunch break.

    I'm hungry and she said she'd bring me some McD's.

    WHERE DID MY BABY GO??????

  • ahahaha nice. Iunno who gave you thumbs down I gave you thumbs up.

  • He is a real LEGEND..

    I Love This Song

  • john legend is such a badass dude.

  • anyone know the back story? if he lost someone close or something, i dunno, i like it when artists put literal self experiences into their music. Even if he doesn't, john's still my favorite R&B singer

  • Sometimes songs are better left without the back story so we as the masses who hear this beautiful music can interpretate in whichever way we see it fit.....for me this song means that...he was left by his love and maybe she didnt love him and he did so he is desperately clinging on to something that well...is never gonna happen...hes in love she never really dug hhim like that??....you see its better like this...

  • Precisely, it leaves more to the imagination that way. I think its alot like when you see a film which is a book-convert, and people read the book the way they have seen the film.

  • this is a sad song your cool john legend

  • John..ur too dope!

  • Legend 4 live

  • became my favorite song after my gf decided to runaway from life. Come back home Sheenia, we miss you.

  • THIS SONG IS SO BEAUTIFUL....

  • This is my shit!!!! Someone longing 2 see her!!!

  • i love this song n i love john legend... he is the truth str8 up

  • this song is amazing. i also love ilajil's (aj rafael)version.

  • i like his version.

    but i like Maestro Harrel's better.

    there voices are boh good, but i just think that Maestro is cute,lol. =]

  • <<<32333333 this song

  • hernquin's insecure as fuck

  • This song is so touchin' bcuz it makes me think about my Auntie that passed away...I LUV YOU TEE TEE NADJA!!! R.I.P.

  • his voice sounds so nice and warm

    love it!!

  • Brian Williams, who I have watched do the news very well for years, was acting like a fan and there is no reason to be so mean. If you don't like John, watch something else.

  • well Mr. Jazz DJ, JL is obviously influenced by artist such as Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Donnie Hathaway but that doesn't mean he is trying to be them. He's bringing in his own music with tones and lyrics that are true to him. There are so many artists that cant play instruments and cant actually sing. At least he's bringing genuine singing ability. An artist isn't defined by how he copies but how he/she creates.

  • Good point. JL is obviously an artist and art appreciation can be objective, but is mostly subjective. I noticed in college that many people who enjoyed "Cool Jazz" did not like works by Monk or Miles because they were so different. However, those people have a lot in common with these fawning over JL, in that; they are not connoisseurs or purists, rather, sheep following the MTV/VH1 herd. That is why I'm proud of my comment's -6 rating. The majority is almost always wrong.

  • You make a decent point but you are also forgetting that there are fans who liked his music before this MTV/VH1 bellwether of which you speak. So don't assume that just because people are fans of artist whom you think are indecorous, that this means they are not fans of your so called "purist" music. A real connoisseur of music appreciates artist whether they are mainstream or indie.

  • Look he might not be as good as Marvin Gaye, but he still has a nice voice and his own style. You know when I first heard once again I didnt really like this song or Maxine, I thought they were a bit cheesy but now I love them.

  • wow choirboy does sound like john legend, this song is nice though.

  • luv dis song

  • i love john legend. this song is so amazing that its haunting

  • I love john legends music!! Mish he got more airplay!!

  • I have a good idea. Why don't you all shut the fuck up and stop behaving like 7 year olds and why don't you just enjoy one of the most underrated superstars of all time perform one of his classics. Do you think you can all do it?

    Fantastic performance!

  • acutally ojdidit84

    I just read down a few comments.....and you used "tryina" and "cuz"

    so what room do you have to talk?

    just curious

  • Holy moly... I advise any bloke that has just finished relationship not to listen to this tune. Tears for certain!

  • those must be some burning hot stage lights

  • Why is it that on every youtube video, people have to find something to fight about? ;/ I love John Legend & this aong.

  • Well u certainly dont fit into his category of classy people, racist fool.

  • weird, I thought this was an English speaking site.....

    what do you call that language?

  • LoL DaT WaS FuNnY SeRiOuSlY!!!!

  • coming from somebody who says "dat" and "hawt"

    that really means a lot......

  • what?

    I speak English.....so unless you know it, I'm not sure we're going to be able to communicate.

  • McAwesome is Jbrown's new account (didn't realize I had switched for that reply)

    so if you could translate any of what you've typed to me, I'd appreciate it.

  • What the hell are you saying? O_O

  • lmao... I didn't understand what they hell they said either... somebody needs to quit with the ebonics cuz nobody understands them. hell I'd be surprised if they understood themself.

  • hahahaaa... you don't understand? maybe your English need to be harness as well. No one is perfect especially when singing then playing instrument. Hope people refrain of what they say. Because what you sow you shall reap. if you sow kindness you will reap kindness and if you sow constructive critics then you will sow constructive. No one is perfect...

  • ok genious... I'm not talkin about John Legend. I'm talkin about the people who type their comments in ebonics and shorten their words to the point that no one can understand what the hell they said...

  • haha...."genious"

    I would have proofread that comment before hitting send, but other than "genious" I completely agree with you.

  • lol... oops. the results of typing @ 6 am and not payin attention to the spell check in the brower. And yes, I do use abbreviations of words but people can still understand what I'm saying as opposed to:

    "BiTcH WaT Da FuQ DoNt gET SmArT WiT Me nD YeA I SaId dAt nD HaWt cUz bItCh iTs tRu i d kNo bOuT U BuT YeA!!!!"

    There's a difference between that and small abbreviations like "tryina" and "cuz" or droppin the "g" at the end of a word or makin one up. I've got PLENTY of room to talk...

  • There are even small things that can help people understand even in the slightest what you're saying. They're called PUNCTUATION MARKS. And that "genious" mistake is a result of clumsy fingers... lol

  • ojdidit84...Are you talking about what i say? don't be offended coz it wasn't you i refer. It was the person name under LCONBEN that you also commented. I'm sorry if you think I'm addressing you but it was not.

  • actually, youtube is a global site. and the whole world doesn't speak english. and are you a grammar teacher tryina correct everyone on their english?

  • my girlfireind is so silly i once sang where did my baby go and she rasn up to me kissed me and said IM HERE! lmao

  • Hahaha, that's very funny!

    did you sung good?

  • nice one!!!

  • baby shenna...

  • this song is B-E-A-U-T-I-F-UL

    i love it

  • I'm also talking about airplay. MTV and VH1 don't even show many of these great artists except for rap and pop tarts.

  • I am aware of that but many of them are not as popular or famous as John Legend and I'm talking about modern contemporary singers and not the classics.

  • this is what I'm talking about, music for the soul.

  • Sat at the harbour front while gentle waves rolled in, watching the sun rise and giving all the ships an orange glow, listening to this song on my mp3-player. I don't think I've ever been further 'away' in my thoughts. Absolutely beautiful. Greetings from Denmark

  • his voice is so good compared to other singers. he doesnt use a computer to enhance his voice

  • John Legend truely is a phenomenal artist and so three dimensional which is very rare in todays world of music.

    John Legend = modern day Marvin Gaye
