Nocturnal, well it really was not that long ago, when U2 launched their "Joshua Tree" album that included this classic, performed beautifully by Sarah. Having said that, I understand the nostalgia for far away yesterday's when life seemed much more lovely with endless possibilities.
@@deanmitchell9568I have been a devout fan of Sarah's from the beginning of her career... If you enjoyed her U2 cover, you'll likewise enjoy her original music, I'm sure!.. Here's a link to most of her cover work: secondhandsongs.com/artist/46838/covers Astonishingly, each of her covers seem to me, a necessary and intended addendum to the original...Perhaps my Jarosz fandom gushes a bit too much, but she is musical perfection to me :)
Agreed. I still hold her cover(s) of Paul Simon's "Kathy's Song" as one of the most amazing covers I have ever heard in any genre. And there are a number of other examples including this one. I think part of it is that she only seems to cover songs she loves and feels deeply in her heart, and thus wants to make sure she treats them as they deserve.
I love U2, and I typically cannot stand when their stuff is covered. But this is different. This version gives me the same goosebumps as the original. Absolutely beautiful! Thank you Sarah!
I hate to be the downer but I have to comment that the woman sounds as if she can't sing good. Maybe she can rap but this version is terrible. Maybe she just need practice but she sounds off key for the song she is singing. I understand that some people can't sing like me for example, I can't hit the high notes of a song but I have good rhythm. So I had to dislike this version.
We have a new contestant!!! Putri Ariani just sang this song on Americas Got Talent and advanced to the finals for the whole competition. It's was a masterful performance
After the day I had trying to teach online school with the system randomly failing, the technical issues, the kids losing their minds... I needed this. Thank you.
2020 has been a shitshow and I'm more stressed than ever. My fiance and I are going through our own issues. But hearing this just evaporated a great weight off of my shoulders and my mind. I want to listen to this on repeat forever. Thank you Sarah, you are a Goddamn national treasure.
I'm by no means a "U2 fan", but I've always appreciated that song. I honestly never imagined it so sweet and vulnerable... Almost fragile in its beauty, but so incredibly powerful in the delivery of the "triumphant" parts. The balance of strength and weakness in the lyrics was conveyed PERFECTLY with that beautiful voice. I went in expecting another ill conceived cover and quite literally couldn't look away. I don't think that song could be done any better by anyone else. Period!
If you think this is better than U2 you are obviously not a fan of U2. The original version is an amazing multi-layered pitch-perfect masterpiece. This one is very good, but it's a completely different song which can't possibly be compared to the original. Apples and oranges.
@@RickDeckardMemories What would be the sense of comparing, when any artist covers a song ultimately they are paying homage to the original artist. Sarah is a beautiful singer and amazing instrumentalist who possesses and old souls love of music. I prefer Sarah's cover based on the fact that she is probably my favorite artist making music today and although I am a fan, I wouldn't list U2 in that same category for me personally. My guess is that they are probably among Sarah's favorites though and that's all that matters. And your description of the original as multi layered is spot on, it's what makes it such a dynamic song.
@@RickDeckardMemories I agree w/r/t cover vs original. A matter of personal taste, of course, but I gotta have the propulsive percussion, the jangly guitar layers, vocal harmonies, and the big cri de coeur quality of Bono's delivery vs Sarah's quiet, plaintive reading (lovely as it is).
We have a new contestant!!! Putri Ariani just sang this song on Americas Got Talent and advanced to the finals for the whole competition. It's was a masterful performance
☝👍You're right. I believe a stripped down version (done well like this) is the way Bono intended this song to really resonate. Also the version done by U2 in a church with a choir is also phenomenal...
@@kellyryan2934 "Stripped down" as in "stripped down arrangement" I suppose, and no, that's not the same as "acoustic". An "acoustic" version can have a "heavier" or more complex arrangement than the original. Any pop song arranged for and performed by a symphonic orchestra is an "acoustic" version, but by no means "stripped down". Just think for a moment before giving cheeky lectures.
This comment is so on point I would give you all my likes for a year if I could. I always LIKED this song, but I never GOT this song until I heard Sarah do it. "I have held the hand of the Devil, it was warm in the night. I was cold as a stone." To every military veteran out there...well, you get it.
Ive seen Sarah 4 times live. She is an astounding performer. I cant wit till this Covid thing is over so we all can see her live again. Thank you so much for your skill,art and beauty. We all love you!
We have a new contestant!!! Putri Ariani just sang this song on Americas Got Talent and advanced to the finals for the whole competition. It's was a masterful performance
For the first time in my (rather longish now) life, the lyrics of this song were brought right to the front by Sarah. These covers are such a brilliantly refreshing change each week. Indeed, as others have said below, Sarah's music continues to bring light and hope into the grey (and smokey!) times of Covid. Where there is excellence in music like this, there is hope for tomorrow!
I’m 66 years old and I’ve seen a lot of great musicians in my life. Except for this one. Sarah is truly one of the finest singer / songwriters I’ve ever heard. Praying for a tour to roll my way sometime soon.
If you see a tour coming, jump on it! I had the extreme pleasure of seeing Ms. J at a small but acoustically perfect concert hall that had been built for speeches after the Civil War. She and 2 other players filled that hall with sound, and it was special.
I love how you pay tribute to the Edge"s guitar playing in your octave mandolin part, while at the same time, playing something that is completely new and creative! This is great. Your playing and your voice are so beautiful!!!
I met Sarah probably at least 7 to 8 years ago at a show. She was a sweetheart! She still is! She is extremely talented! I remember during the concert she made the comment that her parents were always jealous because she technically shares a birthday with the great Bob Dylan! I love her Talent and I love her songs!.... Sarah, you're awesome on stage when I seen you and heard you play and sing, you were absolutely amazing and it was a pleasure to meet you and you even autographed my 7 inch 45 record of "My Muse" and I cherish that moment and I cherish that record and it gets played quite often!
Didn't know I liked any U2 songs until I heard this! The purity of your voice is really beautiful and I am also impressed by your guitar playing. Thank you!
Oh my word! Mere words cannot express my feelings I'm feeling right now-- THAT was emotional, uplifting and so very beautiful ❤ 💖 Bono probably didn't realize at the time how he struck a chord w/ his and U2's audience,Timeless stuff, simply in a word, capturing the essence of this era in history of not only popular music, but it's what I call 'Lightning in a bottle' never 2 be repeated again in our lifetime-- Rick from East Tn
We have a new contestant!!! Putri Ariani just sang this song on Americas Got Talent and advanced to the finals for the whole competition. It's was a masterful performance
Oh yes , she brings a sweetness that even the original doesnt have. . (but in reference to the delay pedal - for me personally, nothing reaches my soul like the 'delay pedal' sound , and the 'echo'.. "cha- ching cha-ching cha-ching.." : )
Thank you Sarah for your heartgoing interpretation of this song. I always loved it (and still do), but never recognized the deeper meaning. Throw your wonderful version I (am a bad English speaking German) really heard to the lyrics and found this message, wich most People can share, of the never ending search for all the questions , what no one can answer...
When Sarah sings ..... she is more than mortal .... she becomes an angel .... a conduit of divine beauty. --- Some people choose to sing. But the music chose Sarah.
Wow Sarah...the playing is so beautiful and your voice carries me away.... Thank you for sharing this. Your natural calm and joy and yearning to connect with the magic of song are, to my ears, nectar. Thank you 1,000 times ten, times one thousand times. Huge smile on my face as usual after listening to you, although the tears on my face are still wet, the smile is winning.
No comparisons to the past and no your sound sounds like this or that. Sarah Jarosz you are just amazing great! Your musicianship and your vocal ability is just killin it. Thank-you for that.
She has a great right hand and she has great rhythm, plus her voice, banjo playing (which I Love), her song "House of Mercy" has her voice in greatness, along with some gret guitar work! This song just ended...insert 👏👏👏
The guitar work is fantastic. Overall one word comes to mind, and it is purity. I can feel the passion of the song along with its strength. In short, it don’t get much better.
Absolutely perfect. Beautifully done. I've always loved this song and have heard it a million times, but your version has taken on a new meaning for me. Thank you.
So moving. Your touch on the....whatever that thing is called, i always forget - octave mandolin?? lol...is so light and the rhythm of it gives great feel to the song. And then the vocals are just butter. I've loved that song since it came out but this version is so incredible. Just really amazing. Melted away my stress of a frustrating day.
@@jfkesq it really highlighted her Fletcher Brock octave mandolin and she has The Edge's delay-type feel in her strum pattern. Plus who doesn't love this song?

Your voice takes me back to a time when life was sweet.
Now it is, again!
I Totally get wheat you mean
If we were still in a time of real music she would be the gem of any record label.
Nocturnal, well it really was not that long ago, when U2 launched their "Joshua Tree" album that included this classic, performed beautifully by Sarah. Having said that, I understand the nostalgia for far away yesterday's when life seemed much more lovely with endless possibilities.
She writes, plays and sings beautifully. An angel.
Stunning version. Talent at the peak of her generation.
...one of the very few artist that can cover iconic songs, and make them her own in a most respectful and excellent way...
Well said I clicked the link to see how badly she was going to screw up one of my favorites songs but she did it justice I enjoyed it.
@@deanmitchell9568I have been a devout fan of Sarah's from the beginning of her career... If you enjoyed her U2 cover, you'll likewise enjoy her original music, I'm sure!..

Astonishingly, each of her covers seem to me, a necessary and intended addendum to the original...Perhaps my Jarosz fandom gushes a bit too much, but she is musical perfection to me :)
Every insomniac from here to Modesto has been successfully cured!!
I Agree.I would also add Richie Havens and Jose Feliciano to that list of artist that do justice to iconic cover tunes....She did a beautiful job !

You should hear her originals. U2 are my favorite band, and she's my favorite artist of the moment.
Check out Sarah's cover of Prince's 'Kiss'.
I only love U2 when their stuff is covered, with this cover being a prime example. I guess that makes me a bad person.
@@casperbetz1949 I hate U2. Can't stand them, don't know what it is. However this song reimagined by Sarah is amazing.

This is probably the best, most magical cover of this song I've heard. So unique and pretty!
i don't know what to say, but, wtf this girl made? it was simple magical.
Just wonderful thank you

Crystal clear voice, perfect picking. I’m floating in air with this ✌🏼🎶☀️
Nothing like Sarah to cover everyone from U2, Bob Dylan, Adele, Johnny Cash to every blue grass tune out there. What a range. Love you Sarah!
Now I’m not a U2 fan, but that breathed new life into a song I’ve heard on the radio hundreds of times. Wow.
How would we nourish our souls during COVID without Sarah’s wonderful covers?
I stay alive for these moments. The Sarah has made a cover song better than the original moments.
Sara Watkins does it all the time too
You did a beautiful rendition!💖
