Frank Ocean 10/10 James Blake 10/10 Both are incredibly beautiful on its own.

The first “I will always love you” ALWAYS just hit my heart

Dedicating this song to my beautiful baby boy.. who I lost tonight at 2am being 10 weeks pregnant. May you fly high angel 🌈

For my son and husband they are with Jesus now❤🙏

What an absolutely beautiful and pleasant surprise. You have deeply blessed us, James. Thank you.

i want this at my wedding or at my funeral, whatever comes first

LYRICS I will always love you how I do Let go of a prayer for you It's a sweet word The table is prepared for you Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Wishing you godspeed, glory There will be mountains you won't move Still I'll always be there for you How I do I let go of my claim on you It's a free world You look down on where you came from sometimes But still you'll have this place to call home always Glory, glory, glory, glory This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind

if this doesnt play at my funeral im not dying

I didn't know what the word 'godspeed' meant before listening to this song on repeat. After many times of listening to and reciting this song, I'd decided to look up the definition. Godspeed is an expression of good wishes to a person starting a journey. I often think of this song. It's essentially the song that forever remains on my heart. I feel as though its God speaking to me, wishing me well on the next journey of the day and reminding me that his love sustains even through the toughest times. Thank you, James. Godspeed.

FYI this isn’t a total cover as James co-wrote the original with Frank Ocean

The first time I heard this version, it took my breath away. So beautiful. Reminds me of how my dad felt about my mom when he finally decided to give her the divorce she wanted after 20 years of marriage. But he never stopped loving her. He was always there for her til the day he passed away. His love was forever.

To my Daddy who passed away three days ago, I will always love you RB, you are the best Dad I could ever have in the whole universe in all times❤ Always your girl.

Frank Ocean should reply with a 'Too precious' cover

blonded james blake

Someone special gave this word to me,very heartfelt. ❤❤❤ meaning.

It's been 30 days since I lost my grandma and my mother-in-law in the span of 4 days. 30 days thinking about James singing this and not having the guts. Today I had and I'm so grateful for these women that touched my life. Thank you James too

[Verse] I will always love you How I do I let go of a prayer for you Just a sweet word The table is prepared for you Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Wishing you godspeed, glory There will be mountains you won't move Still I'll always be there for you How I do I let go of my claim on you It's a free world You look down on where you came from sometimes Still you'll have this place to call home always Glory, glory Glory, glory [Outro] This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind

Jams Blake is in a league of his own at this point.

I am praying for unity with my family. Let God's love be magnified ❤🎉 ❤ Pray for peace and restoration in Jesus Christ Holy name, Amen 🙏

This song sounds like it came straight from heaven 🥺❤️

Frank Ocean's younger brother died about a month ago, hopefully this beautiful cover will cheer him up a little

ah yes, to sleep crying,

Obviously, James's singing on this track is phenomenal, but I'm blown away by his piano playing as well. Those bass notes he plays at 2:22 and sustains throughout the rest of the song are brilliant; they add this cacophony and darkness that wasn't on the original. It adds a whole different dynamic to the song.

I dedicate this song to my wonderful, talented creative daughter Jessica. You are my world and Godspeed to you and I will always be there for you

This song absolutely guts me. I think of my brother that died in December 2019. He was one of the first victims of Covid-19 in the US.

His way of giving his condolences without being overbearing i feel

2021 when my fiance died. And whenever I heard this song The first 5 words on the songs hit me so much and can't help not to cry 😭 I miss him so much 😭

That first “I’ll always love you, how I do” just hits different yoooooo 🥲🥲❤️

James gave us another version of Godspeed as if we haven't cried enough

The: There will be mountains you won't move, line is so beautiful.

This was the song we dedicated to my grandpa at his funeral services. Boy im in tears right now

This song is painfully beautiful. My family is going through a season of grief and I have never valued our time together so much. This song is dedicated to them.

For those people whose hearts are hurting, this ones for you... 💜

My children’s mother left me a couple of weeks ago and I’m hurting because she was the love of my life. Never take for granted what you have and live in the moment.

I started crying instantly wow 😳 I got chills in MY SOUL

I feel numb and I’m drowning in the darkness today. I stumbled across this song, it evokes so much emotion and is truly beautiful.

This music feels like a hug in ur soul

My grandmother passed this weekend and this song has me in full on tears. ❤️

Letting go when it wasn’t your choice and moving on but being so in love that you still wish them nothing but the best💔

Goosebumps!! This has to be the most beautiful song ever.

so when James goes super sayan he gets softer, kinder, delicate

The only man that can cover Frank Ocean and make it sound as beautiful as his.

People don't know the importance of God Speed, it's a blessed prayer.

I’m not never ever going to stop loving my ex but I have to move forward with this book we call life 😢. I hope and pray that he is happy and healthy I hope he is very successful and running up a bag. I hope I get the chance to tell him that I am grateful for his chapter I got to play in his life story and I hope he never forget that he is loved

This is just so beautiful. I miss my mum.

James understands dynamics like none other. Mesmerizing.

Masterpiece. The way the piano follows that second verse is genius.

This is one of those songs you can listen to over and over again🙏💕

When I meet someone who loves James Blake, I immediately start to like that person 🤗

bruh. I've had a playlist on spotify named "GODSPEED!" for almost 2 years and it's full of james blake's (and other artists of the similar vibe) songs. just thought i'd share that little synchronicity.

Today is my birthday, not so happy until God speak to me through this lovely song🤍 Prayers to all of you!! Amen

The world will never be the same. Thank you, James. T.

The run at 1:33 when he sang "from" touched my soul! Whew, this man's vocals are truly angelic.

I really hope frank and his mom are doing okay...rip ryan ❤️

My grandma's funeral is in a week an one of my cousins will be performing this there ❤️

One smile can start a friendship One word can stop a fight One look can save a relationship One hug can spark a hope One touch can bring a warmth One whisper can bring assurance One decision can stop a war One cooperation can bring abundance One kiss can bring a kindness One sleep can bring rest One wake can bring happiness One solution can stop the tests If we only learn to smile to a stranger, to stop the fight, to start a relationship, to spark a hope, to embrace with warmth, to speak assurances, to end the war, to give abundance, to pass forward kindness, to allow rest, to share happiness, then maybe we can pass God's test! Have a beautiful day to all!

This is one of the most beautiful bittersweet songs I've ever heard. The epitome of true love. Simply beautiful....

james just built different.

I know I'm not the only one who is begging for more verses just so u can hear more of James Blake!!! This is wayyyy to beautiful to be so short!!! Pretty sure it's my 50th time listening to this in 24 hours😂

You saved my soul and broken heart 💔 Thank you 💞💝🍀

People forget he co-wrote this song. What an amazing combo of him and frank

It’s 1:51 for me! That “Glory Glory” part melts my heart!!!!

Why comparing James Blake to Frank Ocean, when both of them are unique in their own way. This is so gentle and truly beautiful version of “Godspeed”!❤️

My boyfriend and I broke up last week. The first man I've ever loved. This pain is unbearable, I miss you so much, I don't even have words for it. This wasn't the right timing for our love.

I’m walking down the aisle to this. I don’t have a man yet but it’s happening

Now imagine James performing on the orchestral arrangement from A24 Waves... that shit would cure COVID and cancer together

Holy blessed vocals. I cannot. 🥺🥺🥺🥺

Listening to this…I close my eyes with tears…The old me is dead never to be brought back..the old me tells the new me Godspeed. Sometimes we get so stuck in our old unhappy selves that we don’t realize we are making it harder for the butterfly 🦋 to be released from the cocoon. It’s like a funeral 😔 and a birthday party 🥳 of the mind. The wonderful world of depression and anxiety. But I am ready to welcome the new healthy me. 🙏🏾 Godspeed to anyone out there that is fighting the battles of the mind 🙏🏾

The B section ("This love will keep us from blinding...") was for me a revelation, listening to James. I immediately recognized it when he began to sing but I'd never known the actual words listening to the distorted samples in the original. Even in my not knowing, the song as a whole resonated so, so deeply with me. I held onto it and let it, like a lot of blonde, be half mystery to me. I guess I left it alone for long enough. Those lyrics have found me feeling like my life is asking me to be blind and deaf to people I love. I cried and cried. Many, many thanks to Mr. Blake and to all the people who liked this video so that it showed up in my feed. I hope you all are living your best!

Let’s appreciate how good both the original and this cover are 🙏🏽👏🏽

This song blesses my heart. Every time I listen to this.. I start crying because I start thinking about my dog that died in 2019, and my other dog, that died this month. I framed in their fur and I have it in my room. I will always love them, they mean everything to me.

Wow jus wow my neice passed away i can relate so much god blessed you with the sweetest voice can imagine an angel would sound like this i love this song beautiful amazing magical

James has such an incredibly distinct, rich voice. It elevates what would normally be a simple piano/vocal cover into something truly magical.

Just goes to show how a song can be transformed just through the instrumentation and the artist. Both renditions are absolutely beautiful, and we have to give Frank credit for the songwriting, but I’d have to say I prefer this version. So raw.

This song always gets me. Makes me think of my grandmother, we were so close and this song fits our relationship the best.

Frank ocean + James blake ! Heavenly collab... Need that kind of magic everyday.

Shout out to all my insomniacs watching this at 2 am. This is as close to a lullaby we'll get.

Don’t get me wrong, i like Frank Ocean’s version.. but I LOVE your rendition Mr. James Blake.. your voice is absolutely heavenly 😍‼️

Tears flow every single time I listen to this. Thank you for the catharsis and the absolutely beautiful work of art James 🖤

I know this song means different things for different people. Mostly people who have had a close relative pass away. Not that mourning the dead is easier but mourning the living is just….different. I immediately thought of my ex of almost a decade while listening to this and it helped bring me a lot of peace. His lyrics describe what I never could. Especially the last words. So to anyone struggling to let someone you may still love deeply go, just think of it as a different kind of love. A distant one. One that’s better for both of you to have peace.

In these trying times, we more beautiful music such as this. Thanks James Blake !!

THIS IS WHERE "IT'S A SWEET WORLD" CAME FROM IN THE SONG ALWAYS!

I lost someone irreplaceable. We were young and reckless, and I didn't let myself listen until it was too late and I destroyed something rare. I finally forgave myself to be happy and It's been years. I know we will never speak again and I want nothing but happiness for them, but the beauty of this song reflects every single moment I remember of that passion and love. Memories are all I have left now and i'll appreciate them until my brain is mushy and no longer large and wrinkled. If you ever read this.. I'm sorry, wishing you god speed x

My daughter in law did a tiktok clip of my daughter to this song...I sobbed myself stupid! It's so beautiful & raw & says exactly what I feel for my angel...Emily-Rose, I will always love you, how I do! love Mummy xoxoxoxoxox

It's very rarely that I hear a song that makes me cry within the very first lyrics. Truly a beautiful song.

This man has a voice that needs to be heard

I cry when he said.."i'll always loved you,i do"..my hearts so touch deeply..

This is one of those songs that gives you chills immediately and leaves you with a lump in your throat and tears in your eyes. Honestly breathtaking and time stopping.

Not James releasing this while I’m having an emotional break down!! Great timing, just want I needed to cheer me up . Such a blessing 💜

James Blake and god in the same title is something accurate.

He sung it with so much passion. It's on repeat for me.

I find myself looking up this video all the time. It feels like a gentle, warm hug to a lonely heart. Thank you, James

When I grow up I wanna be like James!

Heavenly. He sings with such emotion. The contrast between Frank and James is incomparable. They sing equally amazing, both in different ways 🤍

Listening to this song, thinking of my mum who passed away 6 months ago. I miss and love you mum 💗

This video was released 10 days before my aunt passed away. I still think about her today and miss her alot. She wasn't just my aunt but also my mentor 💔

Can't even begin to tell you how much I've been blessed by this song. Incredible. God has given you a gift, brother.

Our spirit speaks to the soul....words heal the visual mind.

This masterpiece got me through one of the hardest times of my life. Thank you.. So much. Once in awhile you come across something like this that just resonates with you.

Instant tears. Such a beautiful song
