I really like the cinematography of these videos. The camerawork, the lighting, the color grading. To me they're as visually interesting as they are audibly.
@@zedlicious I remember when people in the industry would refer to that as the "Tony Scott" shot. He may not have been the first to utilize the circular camera track, but he definitely popularized it.
LEGIT, the best song I have ever heard. I am not capable of expressing the emotions that this song evokes, but if feels sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good.
And I don't even really like this song, but this performance tool me back to high school and the adorable Cathy M. and everything I loved in that precise time and place. I listened three times in a row. Thanks, guys.
This just made my whole life better, I had no idea I needed this, but I’ve watched every video and I hope to see y’all in PA in February! I love switching up styles, you guys rock!
I went to high school with Marcus (the singer) nothing about this surprises me. He can draw like any artist and i watched him grab the rim from the free throw line as a joke. Has 11 siblings. Took all the talent lol
Hot damn! First off this arrangement is killer- easily could have gotten away from the original song- but this was very faithful with the funk on top! Second- this guys voice- is incredible! The way he is able to have such control between the calmer parts and then the belty parts- true talent. Also the sitar sound you are getting on the guitar is really cool!
I’m glad sometimes I forget this is a thing cause when I do remember it makes me super happy. I learned this tune cause of this video. Play it at almost every show now and I definitely give my best try to make it groove like this.
almost didn't listen to it since I could never stand Elton J's. Newport Jazz /Tower of Power (@ NPR), Grizzle's former singer Marcus led me here. AWESOME vocal artist he is.

God damn, he killed this song
Went to high school with Marcus. Dude is insanely talented, but even I didn't know he had this in him.
If Elton hasn’t seen this someone needs to send it to him stat!
Merchandising idea: Sam Wilkes Bobble-Head Doll
YES! I will go very nicely next to my Joe Dart bobblehead.
His belly is a speaker.
awesome idea
Take my money please
With moving shoulders and stomping feet!
That break down right before the 3-min mark is sooooo nice.
My gosh!!! The vocals owned this but what I liked is how everything just synced up so amazingly!!! whoa!!!

Sam back on bass :D
He's been missed. I think him and Tamir (drums) should play on all tracks
Does anyone know if Sam is sitting in with them on the current tour? I'll be even more excited to see them when they come to my town in Nov.
One of the most fun videos to come back and watch over and over
I ACTUALLY CRIED with that 2:47 OMG WTF
Funkiest Electric Sitar in the history of this planet. Nice touch
Dude that voice, just wow

Wow . . .
Marcus, Sam, that guitar solo, Jack plays more than one key . . . wow.
What a voice!!
He has such control over his voice, wasn't over the top, it all worked perfectly!
It's a Good Day when Sam's back and Marcus Scott does the vocals 👌😎
I call this Shadow Funk. It slinks, sidesteps and slides into your soul. You can't help but love it!
You are right. I can't help it Bryan.

Gimme this mans number. Holy vocals
Here it is Peyton: #1
