John Legend

John Legend will make the strongest guy in the venue shed a tear with his intimate performances. While he does have an incredible voice you will be floored by his even more incredible piano playing. It is a perfect event you can take your significant other to for a romantic date night. The atmosphere in the venue is beautiful and you can even see people at floor level get up with their partners to dance to the songs. In between songs he even tells the audiences little cute stories. His popular song "All Of Me" was a crowd favorite, and it's amazing when thousands of people sing in unison. John Legend is grace personified and a very classy man. He literally only needs a piano and a microphone to show people a good time. I do recommend for people with future plans to attend a John Legend show to please bring tissues unless you want to end up like me and use my shirtsleeves to wipe tears. Oh and most importantly if you are planning to propose to your significant other be warned there are possibly ten other couples also getting engaged in the venue. So is it really that original? But don't take my advice I would like to get proposed at a John Legend concert, so do it anyway.

John Legend certainly lived up to his name. He made me cry with his rendition of Bridge Over Troubled Waters & the story of his grandmother. It felt like a very personal and warm performance with an old friend, telling you about how he got his break. The fact that he rubbed shoulders with Alicia Keys, another piano impresario sealed the deal for me. In an era where so many performers rely on a massive entourage, 15 strong band plus backing singers, sexual displays or frankly auto tune, John showed them how to deliver a wonderful show with just his perfect instruments & a few friends. His beautiful voice, his musicality along with intimate stage lighting, the wonderful strong quartet (who are stars in their own right) and the best lyrics that take you back to that romance that didn't last, he appealed to every generation. The only thing I felt was out of place was his rendition of Rock with You (courtesy of MJ) but he sang it well and as I am a massive MJ fan, it was more paying homage than a cover version for me. If I could play the piano like John can, I would already have fulfilled my life's dream. Well done I will be back to see you again.

It has been a decade since the last time I watched John Legend, yet, I remember every moment vividly. It all started off when I bought his 'Get Lifted' album by random. He wasn't as 'mainstream' as he is today. Nobody I knew had even heard of him let alone any of his songs. I had my mum play the album in the car non-stop. Weeks went by and I knew word for word the entire album – as if I recited bible verses.
Watching John Legend perform songs like 'Ordinary People', 'Let's Get Lifted' and 'Refuge' made me – and I am sure half of the audience – believe that the world was at peace. His songs are mellow and relaxing; the way people melted and swayed side to side to song after song in unison. That night it was just him and his piano, and that's all you need with vocal chords such as his. He also performed a new song called 'Slow Dance' from an album he was working on (now known as Once Again).
John Legend is a big name now; performing on a global scale with other famous artists like Kanye West, The Roots, Andre 3000 and so on. I've seen him perform elsewhere, but nothing compares to that night, my first ever concert. Legend by name, Legend by nature.

Well..Seeing John live was amazing not only because I like as a singer but also because he has been part of my days especially this last year. It is my first John's concert but I can tell that I will go again when he will be back in Italy. He played most of his last album songs (Love in the future) and also some classics like "Ordinary people" and "Greenlight", "Maxine" etc. The theatre was full...sold out in Padova. He played the piano for most of the concert, He was wonderful. The band also was amazing, really good vibes. I think he is right now the king of soul and part of R&B. His voice is unique. It was I think the classic situation of a good concert in theatre, with right now one of the best singers in scene. The really experience of jazz, blues and soul. I was there!!!

My friend said to me John Legend's style reminded him of Frank Sinatra. Classy, sophisticated and debonair. These are the best words to describe JL. From the time he stepped on stage he had control of the Barclays center... He was very entertaining, interacting with the crowd and giving a lot of background info about himself. I totally forgot that Kanye West was heavily involved in his career and he played piano on so many of my favorite songs from Alicia Keys to Lauren Hill to Slum Village and of course Kanye. My favorite part was when he sang a cover of Michael Jackson''s Rock Wit You....outstanding!!! His music is soothing to the soul. No flashy sets or costume changes...just all JL!!!

Hey!
The concert of John Legend was just INCREDIBLE! It was my first concert and, I found this really good. John Legend is a person so nice. During his concert he told us to never forget to say «I love you» to who we love, he’s the definition of love. His voice is the same that’s in his video, no difference, the members of the chorus, the musicians, HIM, everything was perfect! He had choose a girl of the public to slow dance with her, it was magical. I have no words to describe this concert. Thank you very much to him, he reminds us to love people who encircles us, his words are honest and completely true. Thank you again and again to John Legend and his crew.

All in all the concert was amazing. He started off with his more popular known songs that were a bit more upbeat, then moved into his slower songs while playing the piano. He had three girls singing and dancing in the background and it was very cool to see a concert with that type of style in it. There were many songs about love so for anyone in a relationship I highly recommend going with your partner for a nighr out. For anyone debating whether or not to go to the concert, if you are in to a bit slower pace than most concerts or even a concert junky like me this is definitely one you dont want to miss.

All of Me Tour 2014 at Pacifico Yohohama, Japan was absolutely Amazing! John Legends vocals were pitch perfect and his musicians are impeccable! My favorite part of the show is the trip down memory lane that he took us on and I simply love his sense of humor!! I was so into each and every moment of the concert that when it was over I was still yearning for more but all good things must come to an end. Can't wait for his next album.

John Legend. All I can say is that it was totally perfect. Me and my girl totally had fun and it was totally magical. And the orchestra we're so good! I couldn't believe that I was witnessing all that in person. Especially because we sat in the first row, right in front of him. It felt so intimate. Paying for those front row tickets were so worth it. Hearing his voice live is just so much better than hearing it on my Ipod.

A sublime performance! John Legend oozes charisma when on-stage and belting out his top songs, taken from his recent album 'Darkness and Light'. His entire band and the back-up singers also got their own moments to shine!

Stand-out moments from the show had to include the lucky lady, who from the front row, was picked out to dance on stage with John Legend. Also his song for his new baby daughter was beautiful.
