Been watching this video on a regular basis for almost 7 years now, still can't believe how effortless his voice comes from his mouth.

one the best videos on youtube. Been coming back for years .

I come back to this video every so often, and it's been for the last 7 or 8 years. I will now edit and add a comment from now on, once a year, every year, for the rest of my youtube life. Starting with todays date and my age 26/7/23 - 40 years old.

what I love about this whole thing is it focuses only on the musical abilities- no sound editing no recording studio. just real and raw musical ability. love

that lady holding her kid and dancing makes me so happy

frrrr!!!

I love the fact that he just stands there singing such a soulful song so sincerely. It kind of beautifies the song even more.

I love this video. I play this every time I'm feeling down.

I watched this when it first came out many many years ago and have held it in my heart ever since then. Tonight I played it for my child for the first of many times to come. You still make me smile even after all this time. Thanks for the memories.

Yo the singer is probably the most coolest black guy i ever met. Im a pretty chill black guy by nature but damn... He takes the cake... So smooth.

Aloe Blacc - You make me smile. Live at a subway station. This man has one of the most powerful voices in today's music.

blown away! people need to hear more music like this...make them smile

Aloe Blacc - This song straight killed me bro. I felt this from the core of my soul, my friend. Thank you. This is damn real music that feeds the heart and soul people...And, I never comment

I like the momma holding her baby and singing to him. so sweet and such a good mom.

i think this video captures more than just performance.. i like how anybody having a bad day can be walking past this and change there whole mood

God damn he has a gorgeous voice.

4:27 "Cause everything, everything, everything, everything, everything revolves around you. " That line just gets me..

Years later and this is still making me smile 🥰🫶🏾

Still loving this as much like the first time I saw it #aloeblacc #music

Never realized there was a second part to this. Have always said Aloe Blacc reminded me of a modern day Bill Withers, so it was cool to see them play 'Use Me'. Bill had that same effortless singing voice, feeling, tone, and range.

This performance deserves a $50 bill from everyone walking through

This still blows me away

magical beings doing magical stuff

This is the greatest idea, performance, song - just inspired, full of happiness. Brilliant!

Wow! Such an interesting set up during this wonderful live performance from one of my favorite artists and now one of my favorite production collectives because the concept behind this setting was superb! The musicians playing the instruments took center stage whilst the audience and passersby literally had to travel THROUGH the music to get wherever they were going which made for a simple yet wonderful sentiment and a nod to Aloe's greatness! The music, the great shots of city goers passing, joy on their faces, and the cool calm nature of Aloe's singing merely made this experience all the better. Thank you!

this literally brought a tear of joy to my eyes and ears! ty gentlemen!! much love-me

Oh man I got goosebumps when they started playing Use Me. Real nice.

The best insinuation ever!! 😁❤️❤️❤️🎈🎈🎈👏🏾👏🏾

Absolutely amazing, effortless and joyful. Thank you so much 😊

I think this may be the best song of the 21st century, supremely beautiful, soulful and deeply heartfelt

It's magical. I love his voice.

That little lick in the beginning sets the tone for the whole vid. So tasty. Please make more like that

dude needs to crack a smile every once and a while

The shot of his face as the camera follows him from 9:45 - 9:58, is an amazing shot. Him just scanning the crowd until he finally turns his back. Gave me chills

How are people walking past this, everyone should be able to spare 10 minutes to see something amazing.

Thank you for thaaat, Take away Show! 😍😍 Such a gifted and talented singer!

The Bill Withers cover is one of the best things I'ver ever seen. And I've seen a lot of good things.

I downloaded this album for free just to listen to it, and even though I already have it, I'm going to purchase it bc I want this talented man to continue making music for us.

man i respect this man and his music....

This is exactly the type of sound I was looking for.

Great singer. Ironic how he sings about smiling, but he is stoic the entire time.

couldn't be better than this.

You Make Me Smile is one of teh best songs I've ever heard! Simply beautiful! It's on heavy rotation and I just sent it to my girl. Thanks Aloe!

simply amazing... it is as it should be.. both the story and the artist. Fantastico!

Aloe, you make me smile.. This brightened my day so much !!!

Just love the natural, calm beauty of this video.

Lyrically, artistically, musically and Soulfully awesome!!! Hard times never sounded so good!

Aloe's just chillin', like he's not part of the band and then just starts singing.(:

I just love Aloe Blacc's casual cool...

Oooooh... Bill Withers tune... I'm done for. Bravo!

I'm so glad i found this!!!!!!

Perfect voice and soul...Touch my heart!! Thank you!!

omg his voice, its so powerful cant even imagine how he does that, he sings so incredibly good

You made me smile! Whoooa what a voice, kudos to you young man!

i can't tell you how happy i am that i came across this video...

la blogotheque dvd box set with everything you've recorded by now. and with every half a year or so a new edition comes out. i'll so be buying it. it's quite impossible to do that i guess, but in a perfect world... thank you so much for your work. ♥

I never knew there was a part 2. Aloe blacc is raw talent in its rarest form!!!

man. thank you LaBlogotheque! Thank you.

still here watching...so good

Was annoyed they took down the former version, but the addition of ''Use Me'' is great. Nice One

This makes me smile.

How did I miss this?! What a song, and what I singer! Clearly 17 people don't know what real talent is!

So Beautiful songs, voice, music, and work for the sound in the middle of the crowd in Saint Michel ! It must have been a lot of background sound around ! Beautiful work ! Bravo !

My favorite take away show ever ^^

nearly fainted when i saw his name on this!!!! I love the "A take away show" now!

I love how people actually smiled in this video.LOVE.

voice of an angel if i ever heard one, he's so effortlessly good, always puts a smile on my face

Journies begin, journies end. People living their everyday lives. And it all makes me smile

Fantástico!!!

This is the best thing I've heard in a long time.

I could listen to this all day.

One of my favorite songs. Wish this was the 60's

super dope!

The singer is the definition of swag.

La Blogotheque ha sido una inspiración para nosotros. Gracias por tan necesario contenido!

slapa da bassss. hes a badass bass player. Love this band.

I love when you hear a song that makes you want to be a better person.

WONDERFULL👍👍👍👍👍👍

I just watched both parts... They changed my life. Made me wonder: how many of us are living in a daze and missing out on the beauty of life?

THAT was amazing.

Something worth missing the train for :)

brilliant jujst ffinkg brilliant!!

amazing ❗️❗️❗️

This has age so well, like fine wine.

beautiful!

@youruory i know right!? performances like this bring the emotion from the music. This was shot very well. Two thumbs up!

Reminds me of "The Warriors" when they're walking through the subway! Performances can't get any more realer than these. Love 'em.

I love the shooting with "You Make Me Smile." It's exactly how it is to be in love. All you see is a sea of bodies, but you have a private, happy music with you.

this is so sincere

Yes so much yes!
