Paolo Nutini - I´d Rather Go Blind

[bongsgi95]

wonder if he has the voice of a young man at the age of 60?

[85bigtreasure]

OMG I love every single cell of this man! <3

[BlackMagicWoman3]

a little bit Otis? :)

[joeyjlfc83]

absolute classssssssssssssss 

[OMrSean]

after hearing this Etta who?

[stubobmac]

@OMrSean Well perhaps that's overstating it a bit

[orbafc]

great song sung by great singer r.i.p etta james

[msrkaybee]

RIP Etta James!

[isalukin2c2c]

MEGATASTIC... PURE BRILLIANCE....... MOves me to places every single Gawd Damned time I watch it............

[SmallTalkInc]

where is this? that theater is just beautiful!

[waspberrii]

@SmallTalkInc I think it's LSO St. Luke's in London.

[Kimkim21ish]

3:17 really?? lol his gooone

[Kimkim21ish]

oh his super high lol

[Kimkim21ish]

crazy crazy mmmhmm

[MrWhittak]

cough it up boy....

[AcidAbsinthe]

amazing voice

[tiptop1237]

wot a cool guy!! thumbs up my nigga

[curtispsf]

If you've ever seen him perform live you would realize that he's stone cold sober but just goes into emotional "zones" when he sings certain songs.

[SOPHIETAR]

He always looks either drunk or high... Too bad because he is such a good looking fellow with an amazing voice.

[hansmann87]

@SOPHIETAR he's high on music.

[mayapealer]

he looks like he has 2 take a dump bending down like that ahhahahahhaha (but still a great singinger)

[MrMickymccarthy]

who said blue men cant sing the whites!!!!

[curtispsf]

Tears started rolling down my eyes when I listened to Paolo singing this song. And I'm a guy. I'm certain Etta James would approve. I DO! This boy IS soul!

[arwenestrellatarde]

he has no soul, he is the soul. pure and genuine. love ya, Paolo.

[sionnyn]

Genuinely brings tears to the eyes! 

[angello980]

esta bien chida la cancion cada dia me gustan mas sus canciones ... wao

[mirkofd17]

@angello980 Pero esto es un cover

[julimar799]

Honestly Paolo your talent is beyond words........ Never has there been anyone to compare you with, not even close to............. Heaven to all my senses.....

[Teddybhoy32]

Every song he does is pure gold. Simply brilliant.

[MmaallaaMmii]

he is a f**** God! *.*

[grichav]

Great version,

[tarheelbt]

I have yet to hear a bad song from him...dude rocks!

[MAAURONE]

pensavo che rod stewart fosse stato il migliore interprete di questa canzone, ma devo ricredermi. Nutini è veramente eccellente e trovo che nella sua interpretazione ci sia anche un po' della passionalità italiana presente nel suo sangue!

[griiiiny]

wow! *-* AMAZING Voice!

[boasorte911]

OMG wonderful interpretation... i love this video!

[lilynafford08]

you can't keep time as wonderful as that on drink or drugs i know

[curtispsf]

Heartbreak...so raw that it makes we want to cry. All over again. Thank God and The Universe for Paolo Nutini.

[nenty10]

simply amazing!!!

[weebutters1]

This could possibly be just as good as the original! Incredible!!

[georgethebear1812]

mad as a hatter, but great tuneage all the same go there paoulo

[Siali14]

great voice, but is he on drugs or drunk? He can barely stand...what a shame for such a talent...

[sinet4]

@Siali14 he is just feeling it yo. you got to a have heart to express that

[jimjk963]

4 people must be tone def,

whata voice. whata song

[mm30940]

Iloveyouiloveyouiloveyouilovey­ou paolo. You are fantastic, spectacular, passionate, and amazingly mind-blowing. I will always love your music.

[alexmanss]

perfect!

[SachaaK]

Waauw, I already loved this song van Rod Stewart sang it, but now.. wauw! You should listen to his version too, lovely!

[MCullenFlannigan09]

[katkas1977]

Absolutely heart-rending. He' s so adorable!!

[alexmanss]

damn!

[KartofflMuter]

Passion on 2 legs. Thank you Paolo.

[iampeniel]

The new Joe Cocker, Marvin Gaye and James Brown rolled into one AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FJJago1955]

what a voice!?!?!

[MsCaz007]

Andrew Strong from The Commitments does an excellent version of this song and I can listen to it over and over again. So many wonderful artists that give is so much joy throught their voices. Thank God we all have different taste in music or it would be so boring. This was great also.

[rozi1674]

one of the best artist's ever born....paolo could sing the phone book......bloody brilliant..xx

[lffit]

bloody amazing; what a talent!

[Goanetic]

unbelieveable that this voice is from a white guy! RayCharles-like :) amazing!!!!!



[sandramart12]

how can anyone possibly dislike this? :/

[ColaChasseur]

love the passion in this voice

[enamuzu]

@ColaChasseur not everyone likes hoarse voices...he has a very diff type of voice. it's damn sexy tho

[leslievw2001]

lord jesus, this is amazing!

[MaryAthens1]

God I LOVE HIM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[moviestar1908]

I am sorry Paolo. I will never try to break up with you again. My goodness....

[davidgrus]

one person would rather see...

[laydeebuffness]

Etta James' version is the all time best obviously, but Paolo Nutini covers this song AMAZINGLY!

[shaniellaBe]

if I was sitting there , i would of cried so much! This is so emotional.

[BellCarmens]

It's gorgeous to hear a man singing this song. It isn't antifeminist anymore.

[margheritasntr24]

simply wonderful...

[ssweetthing]

I saw Ruby Turner sing this in 1987....amazing

[ssweetthing]

No he will never be Otis...

[hanbo94]

@ssweetthing he aint trying to be otis.

[ssweetthing]

He was the good surprise at Latitude for me

[schmui]

[outerhemisphere]

@Mangomatiker Und hier ist eine Schwedische Frau (!!! =:-o ) wie freut sich sehr Deutch zu lesen! Ich habe Deutch in Schlue gelernt, (gelernen?) aber nur Englisch gesprochen. Ich liebe Paolo's Musik!

[Mangomatiker]

@outerhemisphere @PnPSc91 Paolo ist einfach klasse! Und auch wenn viele Deutsche wohl Englisch schreiben, in Deutschland hat er kaum die Anerkennung, die er verdient hätte! :D Meine Freunde schütteln oft den Kopf, wenn ich seine Musik höre, aber was solls? :) :)

I think this is one of Paolo's best performances. He puts all of himself into this. Wow Paolo. Love you, love you, love you! Stay well....we need you!!! ♥

[davidgrus]

One person just wont admit that Paolo does Ettas version justice :)

[scottelliottmusic]

[davidgrus]

The rest of the population, around 5999955831 people, have no clue of what they are missing...

[Napiyo]

paolo rules

[arrivaGemy]

[0797162]

iv never heared a better version

[SwampyQ2]

one unlucky guy missed the like button, damn him

[seraphina5]

Paolo has opened my eyes to so many types of old music that I would not otherwise have been exposed to. Thank you, Paolo! I love this song! I can't get enough of this video! Thank you, nicoloco!

[nicoloco55]

@seraphina5 or nothing! thanks seraphina5

[sikkirikki]

sikkrikki This so fresh to hear him sing his soul out... He has an old soul.. If I didn't see him perform, I wouldn't believe he is only 23 yrs. old!!! he hits all styles and seems like a cool dude. I'm into hard n heavy bands but this is a nice change...

[sikkirikki]

this dude sounds like he is way older and experienced alot of pain beyond his years, kick #ss!!!!!!

[IAmFirestorm24]

@seraphina5 this mutha f*cka can sing with so much passion and I'm a metal/hard rock singer, but This dude can sing.....

[yjadalyn1]

@seraphina5 yes. If you wanna go even further, listen to Ray LaMontagne.

He's like Otis Redding's love child.

He and Paolo are amazing artist

[martina88rhcp]

fantastico, strepitoso!!!:)))

[mizino81]

simply outstanding...

[nicoloco55]

@mizino81 so they say ;)

[seraphina5]

He is absolutely amazing.

[tata05100]

love you.......

[nicoloco55]

how to close the eyes, and express emotions in his face, he does great!

[lisjdk]

I have always loved this song, but with Paolo its even better!!!

[Myranda69]

how couldnt you love this

[nicoloco55]

@Myranda69 I do not know, realy I do not know !!!

[Nutzonpaolo]

I love this man.

[reedysas]

wicked!!!!!!!!!

[TheFinnola]

There are now reports in the Sun that he has throat problems - this can happen with nodules or to singers who strain at the back of the throat. I still say yI can hear a slight problem. BUT I still love his singing.

[curbyourenthusiasm]

Gets better after you've heard it a few times... I adore the drumming, and when he really gets his teeth into it.

[TheFinnola]

No need to be mean! love this but there are a few spots that seem to me to be stretched and right on the back of is throat. 2.30 - 2.38 - that's all

[nicoloco55]

Paolo rules !

[TheFinnola]

Paolos voice sounds very harsh - but wow to the band. Im a bit lost as a top fan.

[romdomvideo]

this is amazing, not harsh at all.

not much of a fan if you dont like this..
