I discovered him 3 weeks ago and I find his music and style addictive. I cant put my finger on it . A mix of Kurt Cobain, Bob Dylan, Paul Simon and some country guy I cant even name. Very interesting and entertaining music to add to an eclectic list of favorites.
rse 1: Shakey Graves] Well lanky Lenny is too tall to be lost and found Too big for the cages at the city pound Oh what will he do Yeah what will we do for fun and for free It seems the roads are growing wider and wider 'most every day I used to love to drive but now I stay off them lanes What is the use of standing up if there's nowhere to lean Yeah, but somehow were getting by It seems a little bit easier to touch the sky Something is coming for you Somethings coming for me Oh but can you see [Chorus] No yeah no no no no We're not like the others Yeah maybe its true No yeah no no no no no We're not like the others We couldn't be Oh if we wanted to Ooooooooo [Verse 2: Shakey Graves] So poor lazy Lauren is too small to go out of doors She's too loud for the neighbors Oh she's to slow for the chores What will she do What will we do for fun and for free Seems the roads are growing wider and wider 'most every day You know I used to love to drive but now I stay off them lanes What is the use of looking out if there's nothing to see Oh but you and me
His music is so incredibly perfect live...but all of the studio version are really subdued, no grit to his voice, vamping and extra vocal lines, subdued percussion...I'd gladly buy merch like shirts, buttons, patches, hats...but not the record. If he released a compilation of these live recordings, I'd gladly pay double whatever he asks for that, though ^_____^.
Tereshinal yeah, it's like his music changes based on his emotions. tempo's to most of his songs change throughout the song when he plays live. it's fucking rad lol
Oh hells yes. Shakey has also updated his bandcamp recently, four albums/EPs now. If you haven't been there recently, well, now you know what web page you will be visiting after you finish with this one. ;)
I downloaded all 4 and the next day my PC's hard drive took a massive dump. I hadn't backed up my music in a week or so but thankfully had all my pics/vids backed up. I'd rather have lost some videos than those Shakey albums. :(
I want to buy all of Shakey's music, and I am more than willing to pay full price, but WHERE CAN I FIND all of his albums, I can only see 2 on his Bandcamp now. I paid $7 for Donor Blues and I chose to pay $7 for Roll The Bones, where is the rest of it?
i cant believe this song has been here for over 7 years and im just now finding it. this dude is truly incredible
The absolute best version of this tune.
yes!
beyond a shadow of a doubt
I'm currently obsessed with this song
Fo'real... its the first time i think since explosions in the sky that i have one song like this on repeat for 2 weeks now and not get bored of it
Honestly a piece of art.
Why doesn't this have more views?!?!

rse 1: Shakey Graves]
Well lanky Lenny is too tall to be lost and found
Too big for the cages at the city pound
Oh what will he do
Yeah what will we do for fun and for free
It seems the roads are growing wider and wider 'most every day
I used to love to drive but now I stay off them lanes
What is the use of standing up if there's nowhere to lean
Yeah, but somehow were getting by
It seems a little bit easier to touch the sky
Something is coming for you
Somethings coming for me
Oh but can you see
[Chorus]
No yeah no no no no
We're not like the others
Yeah maybe its true
No yeah no no no no no
We're not like the others
We couldn't be
Oh if we wanted to
Ooooooooo
[Verse 2: Shakey Graves]
So poor lazy Lauren is too small to go out of doors
She's too loud for the neighbors
Oh she's to slow for the chores
What will she do
What will we do for fun and for free
Seems the roads are growing wider and wider 'most every day
You know I used to love to drive but now I stay off them lanes
What is the use of looking out if there's nothing to see
Oh but you and me
Thank you
beautiful song and amazing version
This is just outstanding.
So Powerfull ! Love it
Perfect.

This song just happened to be playing in the background when my girlfriend of four years and I broke up. Makes me cry every time...
Christ that was amazing
What a song!!

Just double-checked his website, and he DID upload live recordings for purchase! Getting them right now ^___^!

tempo's to most of his songs change throughout the song when he plays live.

46000 views does not do this song justice
great knowledge of music is obvious within this one
Class
anyone have an idea of what tuning he uses?
anybody know the tab or chords for this version?
Are you able to burn bandcamp purchases? I've never used it but seems to be only place to get SHAKEY
Best version of the Raccoon song❤❤❤❤❤
I think he uses DADF#AD
the sync is off, grrrrr
outta tune ending but nice
