This performance is one of my favorite R&B performances of all time. Rogelio is an incredible voice, and this puts him, in my opinion, of individual performances by an R&B singer in the top 20, all time. The emotion felt from his display is heartfelt. Before you disagree, please watch.
I have just melted. What I love about PMJ is that they seem to get the perfect singers to compliment the song and the style. Rogilio Douglas Jr owned this. Beautiful.

I wasn't so sure about the arrangement at first, thinking they stripped away the urgency from the original song. I was wrong. This is such a stellar rendition. Rogelio is masterful; his pleading and soulful voice pulls us in. And, not to mention, the backup vocals add so much to it.

Oh my. I like this better than the original. This sounds like a classic right here! I love Postmodern Jukebox, but I think this is your most beautiful song!!!
I freakin love Post Modern Jukebox. We need to stop all this crazy hatred. We are all humans. Look how amazing this is.

I saw Rogelio at last night's show in Eugene. This recording barely scratches the surface of how outstanding he is. (Even so, it's Allison Young who owes me a new pair of socks.) #PMJTour
LYRICS in case yall wanna sing-a-long I've been roaming around, Always looking down and all I see Painted faces fill the places I can't reach You know that I could use somebody You know that I could use somebody Someone like you And all you know and how you speak Countless lovers Undercover of the street You know that I could use somebody You know that I could use somebody Someone like you Off in the night while you live it up, I'm off to sleep Waging wars to shake the poet and the beat I hope it's gonna make you notice I hope it's gonna make you notice Someone like me Someone like me Someone like me, somebody Go and let it out Someone like you, somebody Someone like you, somebody Someone like you, somebody I've been roaming around, Always looking down and all I see

And where did you all find those 2 back up singers?! Their voices positively MELT together.
The backing vocals on this track just take Rogelio&Crew to the next level. They woooorkin lol
I know Robyn already covered Evanesence, but you need more Soul covers of songs like these. Like this and Boulevard of Broken Dreams are my favorite Soul covers that come to mind.
What special effects were used to make it look like the house was still standing after that performance?
I saw you in Luxembourg and I hadn't heard this song on your deezer playlist. I cried as for All of me. Rogelio Douglas, you turned me upside down.
My man on the drums is FEELING this song
I saw him yesterday in Cambridge England and if it’s possible he sang it better than this ! He was absolutely incredible and I mean incredible. He had the whole audience in the palm of his hand. I watched with my mouth open mesmerized for the entire performance. He was absolutely in his feelings singing this yesterday. People stood up and clapped for a hell of a long time. Just amazing! See this man live if you can 💯💯💯💯 percent pure gold 🤴🏾🤴🏾🤴🏾🤴🏾🤴🏾🤴🏾. Excellent find Scott.
I saw you guys live in Eugene last night and I was blown away!! The setlist, the rehearsal, the song choices, wardrobe, everything was fantastic!! Much love PMJ! 💜💜
