Man I can’t get over this specific rendition of this song. When he says “but it was never enough.” Just gives me chills every time man. This is one of the best videos of this song being played by him for sure.
I'm with you, man. I've searched far and long for one better and I just can't find it. The passion and vulnerability cannot be surpassed. This entire set is wonderful.
It’s crazy how one guitar and one singer can wake up such an emotion This song and especially this version is one of the if not the best songs I’ve heard to ever exist💯
This version is much better than the commercial recordings of this song. Isbell's Voice is what makes this song so good and you hear it here in a much last cluttered arrangement. His acoustic guitar is the perfect accompaniment too.
Disagree. I love the entire "Here We Rest" album. But I have a pretty dope sound system, at home and in my car. Not said as a diss, truly. Just thinking that may have something to do with how its heard. I have to have the vocalist front and center in everything I listen to and his is on this entire album.
This is one of my absolute faves of his. Tho of course it's hard to whittle the list down ; ). And LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THIS ROOM!!!! Good grief. The words. The voice. The power, the hurt, the resilience. Seems had I been able to see him perform this in such a small space, it would be a memory for a lifetime. Thanks to whomever recorded and posted.
quite possibly my favorite performance of a song ever
“In real life these things dont happen much at all, its too bad we all live the dream”. Remarkable lyricism
John mayer said it best "he lives at a level where even great writers can only visit"

I would argue the Jason Isbell we see today couldn't hold a candle to the Jason up to the Southeastern era.

Oh he clearly means that shit when he sings it 👌🏽👌🏽
Same dude. That was pure emotion.
Amen. I find myself repeatedly coming back to this set at Paste. He does an incredible version of "Streetlights" as well. A true master.
back for 100th listen!
back for another listen to this specific performance, so good! like 100th listen now lol

Not sure I’ve ever heard Jason sing like this before or since. Incredible voice to match those other-worldly lyrics 💙
Jason you smashed it in this performance, great song, thanks for sharing this vid Paste.
"She was enough, but that was never enough" wow
absolutely incredible, the lyrics, the emotion, the tone and timbre, this guy leaves me speechless, that is rare.
This song is SOOO freaking good. Wow. That this isn’t being played on the radio in place of the rest of that pop-country garbage is a crime.
"It's realizing just how close you come to death and rearranging accordingly" WOW.
It's my favorite line in the song. I think if you've ever been there, you just get it.
This is so good I can only watch it once a week…wow man! It’s too much.
What a gem this is !

Billions brought me here
Wow! So great. Been listening to his music for about a year heard this for the first time today. Epic!
Most underrated
Best version
Beautiful.
This is such a good song. Raspy voice and the emotion. Classic Jason Isbell.
No one compares to isbell
Jason was feeling this one. Looks like he almost choked up a couple times.
Awesome
Sons Of Anarchy 💕💕💕

I cannot make my guitar sound like his. *Sigh*
Yeah same , need about 2,500$ more haha , maybe one day
Anyone know what guitar this is Jason is playing? Looks like Spruce top Mahogany back & sides but I can't discern what brand it is.
Looks like an Epiphone, the symbol is there and headstock has a familiar shape. Did you find out?
It's a Scott Baxendale Custom.

Only saw 2 people in the audience, off Stg L. She got it, immersed in it, the guy... not so much.
