JAMES POOLE, “Glad You Came” and “All Of Me”
You know that when my most recent blog post was about the same singer that there is something special happening here. I raved about UK singer James Poole’s rendition of “Titanium”, and must draw to your attention two of his other interpretations of The Wanted’s “Glad You Came” (posted today!) and John Legend’s “All Of Me”. Again, oft covered songs, but James totally smashes them. His rendition of “All Of Me” is pretty straight forward, with a gorgeous vocal, but his video is up close and personal with a sincere performance that will make you feel like you’re the only person he’s singing to, with those blue eyes searing right through you. “Glad You Came” has a scruffier looking James mixing it up with his own variation of the song that adds some dashing spoken words which will definitely keep you interested. James Poole has one of the finest voices I’ve heard in a long time and I look forward to the day when a full album surfaces.
