One of the rare times that I like the live version better than the studio. The build up of the song is amazing and that guitar solo at the end was fantastic.
He came in with a suit and tie, then proceeded to tear the fucking roof off the building. Business as usual.. All hail Yim Yames
It’s difficult to understand how incredible and talented this man really is. Just an absolute juggernaut of love talent and influence. I swear he’s from another galaxy here to save us from something
Yeah , it's very difficult. Let's take it a bit further. It's impossible!
Right? Thank God he's here! Just insane the level of talent and verve
1:30 Jim is indeed God
In certain way, the modo of his music started where Kraftwerk reach long ago... English isnt My tongue
this is as close to perfection as man can fly. He tapped into the electricity of the sky.
"True Detective" for me--incredible song.
Thanks to True Detective i found this song, i love, once again
Suits for me
Face = melted. That drummer is fucking sick.
True Detective sent me!
The drummer is a monster behind the kit. Flawless, machine-like. Epic stuff to witness. What a tune from Jim.
Jim James can, and if given the opportunity will most certainly burrow deep inside your soul
Thank you so much Ray Donovan for introducing me to this incredible song an instant fave!!!
Just finished watching The Accountant, and I HAD to look for this song. Masterpiece.
drew0513 OMG! THAT'S EXACT WHAT DREW ME TO THIS SONG! WHILE WATCHING ACCOUNTING I HEAR THIS SMOOTH ASS BEAT..GOOGLE/WICKEPIDIA HERE I COME! I DESCRIBED THE SCENE IN MOVIE FROM ACCOUNTANT
SOUNDTRACK! and baby guess what? I HAVE SERIOUS BEATS AT HOME (state of the art no pun intended) SO THE WHOLE BLOCK SURELY KNOW THEIR VOWELS! !!
drew0513 now your a mmj fan huh ??
Now you’re a mmj fan huh ???
No way I literally just heard my boyfriends dad watching a movie & heard this baby playing & knew he was watching the accountant lol
Iam sure the new series of true detective featured this whopper.
Aaah, the power of a REAL rock band. Remember the super slow build? = Death for The Spotify Generation. This is a band killing it live... no Auto-Tune... no backing tracks... Pure devastation.
Well, I must say, I was intrigued by this song after only a snippet of it on "The Accountant". But mannnnnnn....this live version here is off the chains good!! Total fire!! And the whole band is on another level on this cut, after seeing the whole video. Drummer...completely sick with it (moved me like the drummer on Zeppelin's "When The Levee Breaks"). Piano man...total Monte Moir type cool. Bass player...Larry Graham funky. The other guitar/vibe player...he's next level, he's doin some wicked shit over there, especially with that radioactive guitar! And Mr. James...man, that guitar solo was Prince/Clapton type sick. 1st time seein this dude, and I can't get enough of this video...and I think this is the best version of all the live ones I've seen (and I've seen a few of them now). Am I over-hyping this? Not the way my 60-year old ass was bouncing these old bones around my living room watching this! That's a talented dude/band. Wow!
Sooooo much talent. Big props to the drummer for sure
Des années plus tard je ne m'en remets toujours pas ❤❤❤❤❤
This is the first time I've seen the song performed live. I first heard the song on Night Country on HBO and instantly fell in love with the song. It's such a simple piano medley and I love the way the intensity increases. Great song
Seen MMJ and JJ close to 30 times dating back to 2005. I don’t know how this video got past me. It’s a Xmas miracle that I found it today. Unreal. Make me miss live music so much.
My fav song of 2016. Still goes on repeat.
takes me to the moon...want to feel it like that ... so good
This is one of the best songs there is. Unfortunately, I didn't know the song. I discovered it in some series. But that was the studio version. This one, the live version, is even more intense. Even this monster band, the “producer” cut it somehow. Nowadays you're almost always allowed to release everything live. It just lives more. Unfortunately, the studios have often become the gravediggers of music. But no matter: this band is fantastic. Can anyone tell me who these fantastic musicians are? All of them are great, but the drummer is out of this world !!!
I love the thunder of the bass when it kicks in.
❤️👏🏻Awesome song. Love the lyrics., and the music 🎶 that goes with it played righteous. Most excellent. 🙌🏻❤️🎼🎶🎙🎛🎧🎤🎸🎹🎷🎵🎗♥️❤️🌧🥰❤️🩹😇🤍😶🌫️🌫🌧🎶 💙🥏⚡️👽♥︎👽🎀🩰🤍
Outstanding performance. Love your music Jim. Looking forward to seeing you in India.
Of all the shows posted of this song, this by far is my favorite!
OMG, I LOVE this! I'm a latecomer to the MMJ world, but I have loved everything I've heard! But Jim's solo album is a whole new, different level of great!
Absolutel Ace! Watched The Accountant (top film) and had heard J'James' song many times before but never watched this... Brilliant music. Thanks, appreciate such a good song
✍️Awesome J@m♥️⏹️🎵🎶🎼!! I've replay it every time I hear it . ⭐✍️
I enjoyed that. Thanks, sweat dripping band. Rock 'N' Roll.
That bass...
Extraordinario
what a masterpiece, thanks Jim
underrated drumming here
Holy sh*t! Mind just blown
I like this and I'd love to hear an all instrumental version, too. They are all so talented.
I love this song.
💙⚡️🖤🎼🎵⛈️👑🎶 This song is ♡ J Ụ⚡️T . ⌚️⌚️
Songs played with organ background are awesome.
Pure Gold!
Holy ... what a píece of performance...
What can you say? Amazing!
dig the pick up when the drums kick in
Hell yeah
Whoo! Love it live, baby!
So good
Fabuloso
one word jim james and co....AMAZING!
I got to see him perform in Louisville (which is actually where he's from) a couple months ago and the dude wore sun glasses his entire performance. Amazing.
You have to go to a one big holiday !!!
Awesome
Agreed
freakin' amazing...
Perfection
Esta performance é D+
Linda música, Que letra e melodia.👏👏👏👏👏👏❤
Daylight come
Daylight go
How far will it reach?
Ain't nobody know
And when the dawn breaks
The cradle will fall
And down come baby
Cradle and all
Now I know you need the dark
Just as much as the sun
But you're silent on forever
When you ink it in blood
A-E-I-O-U, E-I-O-U, A-E-I-O-U, I
I use the state of the art
Technology
Suppose to make for better living
Are we better human beings?
We've got our wires all crossed
Our tubes are all tied
And I'm straining to remember
Just what means to be alive
A life worth living
Now you can feel it in your chest
Building like little bullets
Just building up the nest
And you build it up strong
And you fill it up with love
And you pray for good rain
All from the Lord above
A-E-I-O-U, E-I-O-U, A-E-I-O-U, I
I use my state of the art
Technology
Now don't you forget it
It ain't using me
Cause when the power goes out
I got other means...
Cause the power's going out
I hear the power's going out
I mean it the power's going out
I really mean it the power's going out
Birds, not bullets... but, thanks for the lyrics
❤
Thanks
Fantastic
I am still enjoying, groovy.
That drum kit sound................................................. sweet delicious full-bodied with notes of birch and sweat.
Amazing group !!
Thank you the 100
Surreal stuff...
Beautiful ! ❤🎸🎸🎸❤
Super bad ass!!!!
Epic
Here after Running with the Devil. Excellent movie 2020
Here from Sherlock but damn this song was used in a lot of shows. Great song. I wonder if this band has others or if this is it. This is pretty great!
WTF just ran me over?!
❤
Was this the guy that was on the roadies series on the bus talking about the curse or whatever?
And I think this is one of the best friggin songs I’ve heard in a long time even though it’s 10 year ago
Masterpiece. Slow funk boil with deeply rooted lyrics, in the XXIth. And the damnest earworm. (lol) Why is it that you need HBO TV music scouts to discover this 6y after. If it played on commercial RADIO? (Took 15y for Radiohead) MAYBE, the state of the music art would be better. TY IOU MR JJ KY!
Reminds me a lot of a song by Traffic, The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys
🖤⚡️💙 🗝⏳️
I know ive been listening to too much rap when i hear/see what this drummer is doing... un fucking real
Haven’t seen this in awhile fucking great
here from the blacklist and the 100
This is the version.
Moment suspendu! Là, ça transpire le talent.
Jim James is cool.
Here from the 100, who's else?
♥️✍️
bad ass
He was great at the Firefly Festival
oh hell yeah!
Wow
Musiciens names please ?
Especially the drummer
where is at?................isn't it?
🖤⚡️💙 ⌚️⌚️
Yo who's on bass on this one?
the fella on the drums
Holy Fuck.
drummer is sick
Ray DON
thanks to The Blacklist
Im favorite actor Ben Afleck
Good video after the add gauntlet… not worth the wait
When you hear Goose perform this song this this sounds poor
Blacklist
So depressing..the music...the lyrics...
Now I’m the one verrrrry late to the game here.🫢 It’s 2023 and I decided to Google this song and Jim James after randomly hearing this song… and *holy shit!* Blown away doesn’t even cut it.🤯🤯🤯
I gotta admit… he does *not* look remotely like I pictured!😂 I was expecting a skinny techno nerd, I guess.😂 Here I was met with badass full of all kinds of talent… and a band equally talented!😮
Never listened to My Morning Jacket either because I thought it sounded like a pretentious fad band name.
Clearly I have a *lot* to learn. 😉 Off I go to discover what everyone else here apparently already knows and loves.😁
@@GaDelso I’ll do that! ☺️
Daylight come
Daylight go
How far will it reach
Ain't nobody know

And down come baby

Now I know you need the dark
Just as much as the sun
But you signin' on forever
When you ink it in blood
A. E. I. O. U. E. I. O. U. A. E. I. O. U. I.
I used the state of the art
Tech-nology
Supposed to make for better living
Are we better human beings?
We've got out wires all crossed
Our tubes are all tied
And I'm straining to remember
Just what it means to be alive
A life worth living
Now you can feel it in your chest
Buildin like little bullets

And you build it up strong
And you fill it up with love

Now don't you forget it
It ain't using me
Cause when the? goes out
I got?
Cause the? goin' out
...the power's goin' out
I mean it, the power's goin' out
I really mean it the powers goin' out
What kind of "Art" is being sung about here?
Sounds like the Dark Arts.
