Nice! A proper cover - a tribute not an attempted copy. Never heard of this bloke till now. Have loved the pixies for ever. May now have a new rabbit hole
@@pattywagon8544 yeah, love his work. It does get a bit same samey at times though. I get some vibes of an almost undeveloped Dave Matthews or something…. Dunno….
Saw him last night with Sierra Ferrell (Think a young Dolly Parton). He threw in Pixies and David Bowie. Then in the 2nd half he did his busking act and played non stop for 30 minutes. Even kept playing while he fixed his drum pedal.
I saw them perform this song last night. Likely the top 5 live songs I have EVER heard. Atmospheric as hell. reminded me of a Radiohead show. Not to be missed.
Been a Pixies fan for 28 years! Just heard Shakey Graves last year with “Roll Them Bones” Love the cover & new subscriber now! Thanks for the post! There is always a place for different genres of music! My friends & family think I listen to weirdest music but I am cut from a different cloth! I listen to everything! Mostly music that is not mainstream popular because that’s how I expand my mind.
"Now I didnt write this song.. because I forgot all the ones that I did write" lol. Said every preforming singer/songwriter trying to reassemble the pieces of what u were in 2019.
I got to see him in key west florida.he played this in a full 2 hour set and it was so perfect.him and his BAND had beautiful suits on and they were enthralling. shakey graves is an exciting showman to see
such a shame the RUclips video won´t capture the complexity of the sound. I don´t really know Shakey Graves that well but this is such a unique rendition of this well known classic. Glad to have stumbled upon it.
I saw him live at a small event a few months ago, and he played this. Super moving and powerful to hear in person, the recording doesn't begin to capture it.
Umm..I was obsessed with Jeff Buckley and omg the chills I got when I heard this!!! I would have stopped the world for Jeff Buckley's voice and his words, it didn't even hit me a hard time in my life or even speak to me in my situation then, but it resonated so much that I literally couldn't contain the emotions I felt..and all I could do was cry, he teared up a little too, because he knew I 100% had 'the ear'..the first time my dad played his version of hallelujah..on a Casette tape that he recorded from a radio station (oh imagine the excitement in your life just sitting and waiting to record a song off the radio because it spoke to you...I envied him back then but that's what I strive for today to one day in the future sit and have several drinks and hit record whenever music speaks to me...I mean what Else in life could you want)
He sounds similar to thom yorke a few times in this. I never made that connection before. When i blow out my candles this year, ill probably ask to find myself next to him at a urinal. Hahaha!
Now that is an experience! Much like any cover by Tori Amos, but similar to my first hearing of “Hallelujah” done by Rufus Wainright. Excellence of experience.🙏🏿💃🎶🧬💖
This was an awesome version. I love this song and get offended by many covers but the crap was kicked out of this tune! Love it. Like the style, interesting take on a classic.
Shakey your music is some of the most pure shit their is. I’m 2 months late on this an it reminds me of the first time I listen to “late July” real question is though, when’s the benji Todd and shakey duo coming ?!
Loved the performance huge fan of shaky and your channel. The microphone's gain is set a bit too high making the vocals a bit harsh. Not every microphone can handle this guy's voice.
My God, I love this man.
Music is as natural to him as breathing
Can't wait to see this absolute monster at the Grand Ol Opry next month
It’s terrifying how talented this guy is.
U scared?
Which means he will never see airplay and guarantee Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran will win more Grammys...as if that means a damn thing 😁😁😁
@@tweekachu2605 Nobody's scared. It's just an expression halfway intelligent people understand. The other half don't get it.
No one has better tone than Shakey and that’s the troof
preach brother
Yes
Yea he really raises T roof
I'd agree as for the living but no one can come close to Jeff Buckleys tone in my opinion
@@janseendiguiseppiThomasMC I'd put Chris Stapleton against them both. To each their own though. FTR, I love and respect both SG and JB music.
Nice! A proper cover - a tribute not an attempted copy. Never heard of this bloke till now. Have loved the pixies for ever. May now have a new rabbit hole
How's that rabbit hole? Shakey is awesome
@@pattywagon8544 yeah, love his work. It does get a bit same samey at times though. I get some vibes of an almost undeveloped Dave Matthews or something…. Dunno….
Saw him last night with Sierra Ferrell (Think a young Dolly Parton). He threw in Pixies and David Bowie. Then in the 2nd half he did his busking act and played non stop for 30 minutes. Even kept playing while he fixed his drum pedal.
He doesn't disappoint, at least not in my opinion.
This is amazing. Huge Pixies fan. Huge Shakey fan. To see something like this live? ❤️
it makes you truly appreciate unique creative covers of this song, most just play the song exactly as the original
@@irotinmyskin Which confounds me. Why bother? Bring something new to it or leave it alone, oui?
I saw them perform this song last night. Likely the top 5 live songs I have EVER heard. Atmospheric as hell. reminded me of a Radiohead show. Not to be missed.

@@veronamartin5285 Me too, Me too!
You got me cause of Shakey so thank him 😜❤️
@@TheJaybutton yes!
I'll subscribe if you find out what tuning he's got that guitar in and let me know.
The algorithm delivers again
I'm still amazed when he takes a song and makes it his own.

Have you kept up with des rocs? He's been writing and recording at break neck pace ever since last may.
@@codygalindo8379 I think he forgot to cover the song and just rewrote it
Subscribed solely due to this comment.
I think you've got our mind, b-eautiful
Where is MY mind after hearing this? In a beautiful place.
Shakey has raw talent, his sound is generous to your soul. Thank you Mr Graves.
Where is My Mind sung over a lightly played version of If Not For You.... fantastic!
Love the distinct Shakey Graves sound brought to this song!
Jesus Christ died for your sinssssss please repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand 😊
Wow….!!!! Think this is my favorite version of this song! And Shakey on top of it!!!
I got to see him in key west florida.he played this in a full 2 hour set and it was so perfect.him and his BAND had beautiful suits on and they were enthralling. shakey graves is an exciting showman to see

Yes. I saw him live and his guitar is like thunder! So much sound but you still have no problems hearing him singing.
I saw him live at a small event a few months ago, and he played this. Super moving and powerful to hear in person, the recording doesn't begin to capture it.
I just saw him perform in Boston last week and he opened with this - amazing!!! Such a cool way to start the show with the lights down low.
My oh my, that guitar sound is amazing!!!
This totally changed the song for me. Amazing
when you hear this dude play, you feel the heart of Texas skip a beat.
New to Texas???
@@jalander8817 27 years ago I was. Being new is arbitrary. Idk when you stop being new. I find new things to do all the time
@@RubensBarrichello. I think it might be more accurate to say the “you feel the heart of Austin skip a beat.” 🤠
@@jalander8817 Austin is the heart of Texas no?
@@jalander8817 that's how we see Austin in Dallas at least
His whole way is no fucking around, straight Fun & Fire. Forever a fan of SG
Shakey Graves never disappoints. 💙💙💙
Really hard song to cover, I love that I had no expectations and was still blown away
Tell me why this video has even one dislike? Seriously, though! He's amazing!
The way he plays guitar on this is most triumphant.
I love the idea of his music, talent ,and the haunting sound and lyrics bringing both sides of that together would be awe inspiring!
Stellar as always!🙌He never disappoints. Everything he plays and sings is real, true, and from the soul. Such a beautiful person, inside & out😌❤️
This song appears to be a mix of where is my mind and one of his songs if not for you
This guy is a legend! He is unbelievably talented!
Love this song! Can’t wait to hear him sing it!!!!!
He transformed this song, I think, into his...if not for you
One of my all time favorite songs!!! Excellent!
Ok, I love the Pixies and this song and this is 🔥 🔥🔥
So happy to see him again....👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wtf this is multitasking on point
Thank you
Always perfection, every damn time.
Jesus Christ died for your sinssssss please repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand 😊

Ma n. It's amazing. I hope you get to see him one day and meet him too. He's a cool dude.
Shakey Graves can make any song sound like a Shakey Graves song.

Man, great cover. Gave the song a really haunting tone. Love it!
I wish I had 1/4 of the talent this dude has

I love this cover.. it's so amazing!!
Great cover. Yes.
Wow!
Great performance! I needed that!💚
WOW THIS IS AN AMAZING COVER 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 ❤️👌❤️👌❤️
Blew my mind!
He sounds similar to thom yorke a few times in this. I never made that connection before. When i blow out my candles this year, ill probably ask to find myself next to him at a urinal. Hahaha!
Homie makes the guitar do his bidding with one hand
He's using two though?
I scrolled past this comment at the exact moment he started the one handed magic
great version this. GJ Mr Graves
I feel like every Tim Burton movie should be scored by Shakey Graves.
EXACTLY
there's a reason they're scored by Danny Elfman
@@chloestabler2174 yeah, he was supposed to sing them too and be jack but Tim was like nahhh
I feel it .
Not strange enough.
Dude, you’ve blown my mind yet again!!!
Very unique, seems to fit his personality.
Now that is an experience! Much like any cover by Tori Amos, but similar to my first hearing of “Hallelujah” done by Rufus Wainright. Excellence of experience.🙏🏿💃🎶🧬💖
This was an awesome version. I love this song and get offended by many covers but the crap was kicked out of this tune! Love it. Like the style, interesting take on a classic.
Say shakey graves I give it to you are humble So Very humble Love you always and forever
Beautifully refreshing 🐱!!!
Hell yeah
Awesome cover. Love anything Shakey does
You have beautiful voice! Also I love the a Pixies!!
So dope.
Im shivering... In awe... Phenomenal
Love this!
Jesus Christ died for your sinssssss please repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand 😊
Pixies would be proud
Hauntingly beautiful.
Shakey your music is some of the most pure shit their is. I’m 2 months late on this an it reminds me of the first time I listen to “late July” real question is though, when’s the benji Todd and shakey duo coming ?!
3:46 I thought this rendition sounded like If Not For You and then he did it lol
This guy is a fucking outrage. Talented and good looking the fucking bastard! He’s brilliant.
It has a beautiful Jeff Buckley feel
Thought the same
I’d love to hear his take on hallelujah.
YASsssss!!!!!!@@localcrow
Please return my mind to this address. Love this man
Shakey still in Austin
Thank you, Mister Lord Shakey
love t thank you
Great performance! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Roy orbison vibes here...loooove!
Just love him! ❤🎶❤
Took this song on the lake and I wish I could show the pics lol
This guy's talent will never stop pissing me off. Like, seriously, how? It's gotta be aliens.
OOOOf, this hit me hard, in a good way!
Oh yessss plzzz
Loved the performance huge fan of shaky and your channel. The microphone's gain is set a bit too high making the vocals a bit harsh. Not every microphone can handle this guy's voice.
sm58s are hella gainy when you swallow the mic
@@RubensBarrichello. tis a Beta 58a, still true though.
Just hoping droopy weiners gets as much credit as he should for this song. 🙏 his mind was way out in the water.
Fkn fantastic!
Love it and Love you
