You really made me laugh and you reminded me of how valuable and precious life is. I hope you have a beautiful life and you sleep peacefully with awesome lucid dreams.....🌞🌞🌞
Yep, I second that, I have been a Lucky Man ever since I started to listen to his music years ago, and many people still think he's nothing special. I tell you, to me it's not a big deal if anyone thinks any less of him, Richard himself said that some people will think his stuff is great, some think its shit, and he accepts that wholeheartedly. The people will however openly appreciate him as a genius many years from now, albeit falsely in many cases (which is a situation that does not befit him) but at the moment, Lucky are we who could already love his stuff, and fools are they who think he is nothing special just because the mass media isn't supporting him.
This guy has a gift of making songs on a stratospheric level. I remember being a kid in Poland and hearing A Song for The Lovers for the first time. His voice was something else. This performance is on another level. Just him and an acoustic guitar. Flawless and sublime.
@ Mark Major similar for me, my wife and me had you on my mind in my sleep,I introduced her to ashcroft when we met in 2005,and she's a convert,loves the guy,just saw him at the royal albert hall aswell,pure class
I spend the night Yeah looking for my insides in a hotel room Waiting for you Were gonna make it tonight Yeah something in the air tells me the time is right So we'd better get it on And DJ, play a song for the Lovers, tonight Please, play a song for the lovers, tonight Don't wanna wait Lord I've been waiting all my life but I'm too late again I know but I was scared Can't you see I'm moving like a train into some foreign land I ain't Got a Ticket for this ride but I will Ooh, play a song for the Lover, tonight DJ, play a song for the Lover, tonight DJ, play a song for the Lovers, tonight Please play a song for the Lovers, tonight Can't stop looking back no no One more for the lovers Oh brother won't you lend a hand I'm alone in a room and I'm waiting for love I don't know when this trains gonna stop But I'm telling you friend I don't want to get up
This is the best acoustic performance of all the songs out there that I have ever heard, and the only person that could achieve it is this man. Richard Ashcroft
It’s so good that if this was a studio recording for a final track you wouldn’t need another take, except you might not want bleed from the acoustic guitar. Ashcroft seems a bit underrated to me.
Underrated musician, he has everything that a musician needs, vocals, creativity,sensibility, attitude, mistery, personality, aesthetic style. feelings, emotions. Richard i truly admire you
Me encanta esta versión con guitarra acústica. La voz y letras de Richard son maravillosas. Uno de mis artistas favoritos. I love this version with acoustic guitar. Richard's voice and lyrics are wonderful. One of my favorite artists.
RA is a genius, his rhythm guitar work is spot on - his random strumming patterns makes for a full sound but without the band, sounds simple, but few do it as well as he can/does.
Lately his acoustic guitar playing is being noticed for its greatness, for many years people's perceptions were mainly shifted to 'he needs the others with him' to sound great, but with time that has been disproved.
He's the best 😍 And am glad that I have seen him in Verve And on is Own Loversion to see him again He's better than anybody av seen proud IV seen him Only One Richard Ashcroft Only one Elvis In the World no one can beat them Brilliant amazing
I keep coming back to this and read some comments below and agree that sometimes less is more. So long as you have a melody and amazing lyrics that's emotive and engaging, you can captivate any audience. Richard Ashcroft does this. Another lyricist that's superior to many songwriters is Steve Kilbey of The Church. Bless those that have something to sing about.
Tremendous lyricist, great songwriter, incredible voice....but I want to comment on something else. You can keep your shredding, your pentatonic scales, and your lead guitar. I would absolutely love to be able to play rhythm guitar like Richard Ashcroft.
Holy mother of God. Stop the press. It's one man, his voice and guitar. Truly phenomenal. A tune it is 👌🏽 Cap doft. Beautiful 💙 I did buy the cd single at hmv tbf. Cracking b sides. But this version. This bloody version. Wow
Stuart Kelly a fellow Irishman I'm guessing,hopefully a dub too🤔✌️....buy a chord book with the little dots and learn...what Ashcroft is doing is way more powerful than any pentatonic bullshit...what he's doing can be achieved in four to six weeks to get proficient...
Ashcroft is a geezer and genius his songs for me are so relatable to a scary reality I was an oasis fan growing up more but obviously love the verve and Richard goosebumps every time
When someone sounds exactly the same as the studio version... you know that you're witnessing something special.
Even better live at a gig
@@mrbrittas3254I know, he sounds even better live
@@baggy79well said sir.
Can't wait for Kew Gardens gig🤘🤘
I'm 84 and I listen to this every night before my bed in case I die in my sleep.
You'll survive
I do too all night long.
🫂
You really made me laugh and you reminded me of how valuable and precious life is. I hope you have a beautiful life and you sleep peacefully with awesome lucid dreams.....🌞🌞🌞
Are you still listening to this song every night? ❤
This man just needs an acoustic guitar he's a genius
I thought you had the same name as me but it's ar 😑😂
Is GOD
He's got one
Dont forget his shades. 😎
@@michaelfallon3991 underrated
My favourite musician ever. Nobody does it better. Do you agree?

+dave music Thanks for that. I saw him at the Roundhouse in Camden on 16th May and met him at signing of his new album as well. Amazing man!
I'm happy for you Julia. Will you be seeing him at the O2, if you don't mind me asking?
+dave music Unfortunately, couldn't get tickets. But maybe my friend has got some for an early Xmas present.
and what a christmas present!! Good luck then.
One man + one guitar = such an epic sound!... gives me chills.
This guy has a gift of making songs on a stratospheric level. I remember being a kid in Poland and hearing A Song for The Lovers for the first time. His voice was something else. This performance is on another level. Just him and an acoustic guitar. Flawless and sublime.
Had this played at my wedding, first dance with the most wonderful woman ever always ❤❤❤❤
Lovely post mate.All the best to you.

@@jamesfarrow1194 sounds like fate to me ❤️
Good choice! We had Good Vibrations by the Beach Boys.
Damn, this is how a live singer song writer should sound!
A vocal so haunting
He is so amazing !
A sadness to it but joy too
One of the best songs written ever, love is such an emotional thing in many different ways!
Pure vocal integrity...love...

I have loved this song for years .i remember sitting in my foster care home put radio on and this was playing I have never forgot this song
Richard's voice is so distinctive unlike anyone's I've heard. ❤😊
I spend the night
Yeah looking for my insides in a hotel room
Waiting for you
Were gonna make it tonight
Yeah something in the air tells me the time is right
So we'd better get it on
And DJ, play a song for the Lovers, tonight
Please, play a song for the lovers, tonight
Don't wanna wait
Lord I've been waiting all my life but I'm too late again
I know but I was scared
Can't you see
I'm moving like a train into some foreign land
I ain't Got a Ticket for this ride but I will
Ooh, play a song for the Lover, tonight
DJ, play a song for the Lover, tonight
DJ, play a song for the Lovers, tonight
Please play a song for the Lovers, tonight
Can't stop looking back no no
One more for the lovers
Oh brother won't you lend a hand
I'm alone in a room and I'm waiting for love
I don't know when this trains gonna stop
But I'm telling you friend
I don't want to get up
“Dream going to stop”
End vs
I'm still in love with this man.
@ Emily Elizabeth....so am I, and I'm heterosexual!
And me 😍👌
This is the best acoustic performance of all the songs out there that I have ever heard, and the only person that could achieve it is this man.
Richard Ashcroft
It’s so good that if this was a studio recording for a final track you wouldn’t need another take, except you might not want bleed from the acoustic guitar. Ashcroft seems a bit underrated to me.
One of the great british songwriters and an unparralled performer, truly inspirational
Richards voice is simply beautiful
He is comfortably the best of the last 3 decades.
Biblical
The Verve/Ashcroft, Stone Roses, Inspiral carpets, Oasis. British music will never reach those heights ever again.
Underrated musician, he has everything that a musician needs, vocals, creativity,sensibility, attitude, mistery, personality, aesthetic style. feelings, emotions.
Richard i truly admire you
There is musicians and theres musicians and then theres genius this man is genius excellence top notch
I love that rich sound from the 12 string
Me encanta esta versión con guitarra acústica. La voz y letras de Richard son maravillosas. Uno de mis artistas favoritos. I love this version with acoustic guitar. Richard's voice and lyrics are wonderful. One of my favorite artists.
This guy is soooooo underrated
You don't understand good music even if it stands infront of you
Lol. He his hugely successful.
Only needs an acoustic
Such a genius, love him
Unbelievable how good he is
masterpiece
He arrived before he arrived and his music will remain long after he's gone.
The last great rock and roll songwriter... Bless you Richard

voice of a legend
He's just cool!!! My favourite musician!
I am in my hotel in San Bernardino, CA and this still tops the charts for me!!!
Ashcroft is the man!
Genius,that's all i can say!

QUE GRANDIOSO ESTE TIPO COMO CANTA...QUE FENOMENO!!❤ 2:32
Tremendous lyricist, great songwriter, incredible voice....but I want to comment on something else.
You can keep your shredding, your pentatonic scales, and your lead guitar. I would absolutely love to be able to play rhythm guitar like Richard Ashcroft.
Or make songs like him .. brilliant tunesmith.
He's absolutely just the greatest singer, lyricist and guitar player of our modern era, he speaks to our hearts and our souls weep.
It's actually quite an easy song to learn.
Was thinking the exact same Tom.
Pick up the guitar and copy it. I did. It's awesome.... after a bit of practice.. :)
Amazing talent.
Richard tu as une voix génial et les paroles trop génial je me retrouve ds tes pensées merci
Ah des français aussi ! Génial
Voice 💚
Muy al natural, sin nada que agregar, basta su guitarra. Grande, Richard

Wow

Voice is still amazing after 30 years, he’s never lost anything and he’ll always be something Noel and Liam can never quite reach

Excellent!!!!! My favorite song when I was a teenager!!!! We had the best music!!!! From soo many different kinds!!!! 😊☺☺😍😍😍😍😍😍😎😎😎😎

I dare say It would have been written Acoustically like most of his Tunes ?
Eyes in love x ❤
