Gotta give props to tambourine/shaker/background vocal guy - he was into the song almost as much as me - almost.

Man, Fred Armisen is playing the hell out of those shakers and tambourine.

The percussions guy is AWESOME! I mean, I was here for James, but that guy totally stole my heart.

8 years plus and here I am, still listening to this masterpiece. Superb performance!

Serious respect to the beat..........Can say no more about the Bay, fella is amazing!

this is the best live performance of this song that I've seen. the synchronization between James' and the shaker/drummer's groove completely convey the emotion of this song and watching them rock out captivates me every single time I watch. I absolutely love the way James feels the music at 1:35-1:41. Man. Chills.

My man in the corner doesn't get nearly enough love for what he adds to this rendition.

This is the best James bay acoustic performance EVER

I'm looking forward to seeing how he grows as an artist. I'm really looking forward to his album and I'm hoping he just continues to gain more popularity in America because he's awesome and deserves it.

I think I can say james bays music is my life❤

So many credits to this beautiful talent of this man !!! Good job Mr Bay!!

I just can't stop listening to him, every single one of his songs is fascinating!

Tried to keep you close to me But life got in between Tried to square not being there But think that I should have been Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes Hold back the river, so I Can stop for a minute and see where you hide Hold back the river, hold back Once upon a different life We rode our bikes into the sky But now we crawl against the tide Those distant days are flashing by Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes Hold back the river, so I Can stop for a minute and be by your side Hold back the river, hold back Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes Hold back the river, so I Can stop for a minute and see where you hide Hold back the river, hold back Hold oho, oho Oho, oho Lonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wander Let us hold each other Lonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wander Let us hold each other Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes Hold back the river, so I Can stop for a minute and be by your side Hold back the river, hold back Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes Hold back the river, so I Can stop for a minute and be by your side Hold back the river, hold Lonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wander Let us hold each other Lonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wander Let us hold each other

I love this. My favorite song of the year 2016/2017. Amazing to me. Can't get enough of James Bay. Listen almost every day. 🎶🎸🌹❤️🎶🎸🌹❤️

James you are a huge part of my life I listen to your music most of the day.Your voice is angelic and I'm loving all your songs so far...so glad u have worked hard and are where you are,so us everyday folk can enjoy you daily!You have an angelic voice and also heavenly to look at! love you James Bay!

James, you make me weep ! I can't hold back the river - you make me feel to much ! I'd love to hold you too !

Once in a lifetime, a very, very special and unique singer comes along. I have no words to describe how good this young man is. May we enjoy Mr. Bay for a long, long time. This song is absolute my favorite and is the most intense performance I have ever seen. Bless you for your talent!

Love the depth of his lyrics and music. Gifted artist !

This was everything I could have wanted out of this song. 💜

Six years later and still obsessed. James voice and words are so beautiful and captivating

I just can't stop listening to this song. Pleasant music, beautiful voice, amazing lyrics.

still one of the best songs. Respect Mr. Bay.

your song "hold back the river" had inspired me to pic up the guitar from my passed grandfather and to learn to play it. i love your songs and your voice is pretty cool too.

Holy Sh*t! That just blew my brains out of my head & made my heart explode! IN-credible. 🙏 🙏

Wow this song and this version especially is a very rare song that got my whole soul and heart at the firts hearing. How could I say I've ever had listened to music without hearing this song? Thank you so much James for that, brilliant piece..

Beautiful song will hold a memory near to my heart forever ... sang by my great niece ♡♡♡

I wish i could have as much talent as this man has in his little finger. Amazing. Hope I can play guitar like him one day...

I cry every time I listen to this song, a masterpiece

I love that you can tell James really wants to just jump off the chair and jam out towards the end. Always giving it everything he's got. :)

Again, so good!

This song just saved my life. Every single time I listen to this I just cry out a river. I'm holding so many things inside of me it's hard to listen without broke down in tears ❤️

Beautiful voice . ❤❤

I have no words.... One of the very best artists of all time!

¡This is music, this is passion!

in versions like this you can find out how good this guy is!! great musician

Love it!💗Thank you so much James!🙏🔥

I'm so in love with this song and with James! 😻

he plays with so much passion and enthusiasm as well :)

that dude behind him played 3 instruments and he also did the second voice. amazing!

This song makes me cry. I feel so related to it... I lost and distanced myself from so many friends when I moved to another country for 2 years (obviously unintentionally). I wasn't there when one of the most important persons of my life died; I was travelling. "I should have been, I should have been, I should have been"... that's what I've been telling myself for the last 4 years... but at the end this is what happens: life gets in between. I could never sing this song to a crowd. I always wonder how artist do it, singing their emotions to a crowd and not crying! Respect and love xxx

I cannot stop watching this video. I think it's my favorite video on the internet. It's just perfection

AMAZING! I've been listening to your music since last summer and I can't get enough of it! You're just.... asdfghjkl xx

6 years after, still the same feeling !!!

Someone who can REALLY SING!!! Not changing keys, not dropping notes to lower harmonies. Love it.

Just missing the old James!!!! Just an amazing voice and a guitar!!!!

You have freed a pure and precious voice. Love to listen.

amazing dude...could keep this song on repeat for hours. =)

beautiful!!!! I can not even decipher what I feel when I hear your voice but I'm sure I feel excited, and very peaceful ...

Beautiful!! True artistry at its finest

his voice is so fascinating, in a good way, that i have it on repeat!

Dude, this song is a blessing. Thank you!

There's so much talent at work here. It's amazing!

Very very very great❤️😍😍😍😍😍I love this song and this acoustic version ❤️❤️
