I lost faith in humanity when they broke up, nothing is forever and we have to enjoy life for what it is and in the moment. I still listen to their songs probably four to five days a week and it brightens my days and I always sing along to this amazing music.
Every so often you get a moment to witness the magic of the universe and the vibrations of the souls who have waited a billion years to make something so beautiful and special.. with all of the love and magic. LIfe is so very fleeting.. a gift to witness this .. hear it and dance to it and to always be able to turn it on. This is what music can do. Enjoy my friends..we are all connected.
"Why are you here?" Because your music has magic. It has a life to it that is not often found. We are lucky that your music has spread as far as it has, because it is a pleasure to experience. Thank you.
even as a young person whose only just starting to attend shows, it's how you guys can connect with us which makes us fall so madly in love with the music you create
I love how their songs get better with time and how their live performances blow away the recorded versions. Please keep posting live recordings. I bought the albums. I hope this band stays together they have so much talent.
us old people are here because we KNOW good music and it's so refreshing to hear that there is still great, real music and that there is still a following for it! Viva acoustic!!
I'm also one of those older people who love your music, my favourite is "Home". I found you guys on RUclips performing at "The Tiny Desk".. and just loved what I heard.. hope you come to New Zealand one day.. I'll be in the audience!!
@@chaseofbase5292 apparently he was an addict in his ima robot days but unfortunately sweet jade feel victim to the horrible addiction of opiates/heroin. As a recovering heroin addict myself, I can see the sad look in her eyes in this video and know she was using then. Nobody chooses to be an addict..most addicts are self medicating unfortunately with extremely addictive and harmful drugs. I feel for her and I think Alex tried to help her since he had know what heroin addiction is like. But i think she just feel far too deep into it and just couldn't be a functioning member of the group anymore. Im sure it was very painful for the entire group to see Jade go from this bright amazing talented girl to a depressed, lost soul whos choice to self medicate with hard drugs ultimately ended many good things such as her relationship witb alex and the band. I cried listening to home the other night because it is so sad now to hear at the end when hes telling that TRUE story about her falling out a window and how deeply in love he was falling for her
Alex, I'm one of those older people in the audience and I want to tell you why I'm there. Yes, I have seen many, many amazing shows in my 50+ years -- from Muddy Waters to Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd and the Kinks and Bruce Springsteen from a spot so close to the stage that when I reached out my hand he slapped me five. I'm at your show for the same simple reason I'm at a Dawes show, or a David Wax Museum show, or a show by The Parlor -- because your music is real and honest and resonates with me.
"Why are you here?! Its so cool that you're here!" I love how Alex is so present during shows... so there, with the audience, embracing their experience, Love what ES & TMZ embody.
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, the whole works of you dudes and ladies are awesome. I will forever be a fan. Peace, Love and Happiness to you all :-)
Amen! Im right there with you. At this point in life I search for music that is real and resonant. This band brings it all and their shows are like old timey revivals that leave me feeling alive and grateful and nourished!
I discovered this band on David Letterman. I fell in "you tube" love with their style. They were coming to my town, Eugene, OR, and I planned to go. But, you know how it is...was a broke dog when they came so I missed it. That night I made my co-worker drive me (we deliver to 50 stores each night) to the McDonald theater so perhaps I'd catch a glimpse of Alex or Jade...and I did see the bus, people standing around. Didn't see Alex or Jade though. Fortunately did see Eugene show on you tube
A happy hippy mix of Dylan and Cash all rolled up together in a nice Joint to give maximum enjoyment and musical dreams, every single one of their songs are uplifting and amazing!
anybody else see in her eyes that Jade wanted to say something real bad as she sat there and picked her fingernails holding it in. I guess that's why she left the band shortly after this interview.
A very cool bunch with originality too often lacking these days. They have substance! that is why older people would like this stuff like the days of old.
i am 63 years old and i just love these guys..every time i hear " home " i just have to move like did when i was smoking industrial amounts of pot and had hair lmao
there coming to michigan this summer kalamazoo &sterling heights mi. mo pop festival i got to see them first time i saw them big easy express on showtime
i just discovered this band, and know little about them --- but they look like members of a cult and that main guy with the man bun is the evil leader. They all look scared to talk, especially the girl....she seems to be saying with her eyes though the big smile: "I just want to go home....." I hope she made it out OK...
seriously. I was half-joking at first, but the more I learn and hear from this band, the more seriously I despise them. Bunch of hippies posers....they fired the girl. and that song "Home" makes me want to cut out her tongue. JMHO.
Hahah yeah, same here man. At first I was like, meh...goofball hippy types from the south, whatever. Turns out they're all from LA. Kind of gives it a bit of a "heavens gate" sort of vibe
not that I'm comparing (actually I had a quick vision).... this generation's Grateful Dead? They also make up songs with the audience too! :) who does that these days?
Although I don't agree with dopestar's comment, it's good that others with varying opinions are looking at groups like this. They're getting exposure & people are talking about them. The group's attitude and free spirit affects everyone positively, whether you like them or not.
Yago Crispim No it's not it's Edward Sharpe. He is the lead singer of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zero Band. Come on mate. Get up to speed. Alex is probably one of the dudes in the band, maybe the one with the mustache and uncomfortable stare.
johnaralia nah Alex is the lead singer... www.google.com/search?q=alex+ebert&espv=2&es_sm=93&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=44D3U4yVFdX_yQSmpoHoDw&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&biw=1280&bih=598

Egmont sorry bout that. My dumb ass decided to believe what everyone else was saying. She actually had a breakdown from touring so much so she left and went solo. She's working on music right now. I follow her on instagram
It's rare to see someone smile so openly with their whole face. Her smile is so expressive, even in her eyes. I think that's a gift.
agreed
He left her because she was addicted to drugs. Now you know where that smile came from.
@@laptop1814 fucking get a life
@@7up983 I mean...he’s not wrong. She’s high in almost every performance of theirs, to the point that she’s fully out of it.
It’s called meth

Why lose faith? Everything is fleeting and temporal. Enjoy the beauty that exists in the present. Create something beautiful yourself
Why? Do u know them personally??? U don't. Don't let celebrity relationships upset u that much. Seriously, people are so weird. Talk to someone ffs.
Count me in as one of the "old folks" that like this band. They remind me of the free spirit of the 1960's
Gotta love 'em, raw, energetic, musical, and love in action. They always touch my heart.
The brightest star in that group was Jade. I love her collaboration with Jakob Dylan, Jade is a pure artist.
It's honestly heartbreaking that Jade isn't in the band anymore. Like she's incredible and a beautiful soul. I hope she's doing good in life.
U can tell she high on shrooms in this interview 😂

i would say 80% of the commercial success is Jade rather than the rest
He cant even perform unless he's out of his mind on psychedelics.
That's definitely not true....

Absolutely not

Sad to say that I just lost interest after Jade left.
I think most did. His drug addict ass did her dirty.

I know this comment is over a year old, but she was let go from the band way back in 2014, so how were you only just losing interest?
Reread his comment. He meant just as in “simply”, not just as in “recently”.
Alex, I'm one of those older people in the audience and I want to tell you why I'm there. Yes, I have seen many, many amazing shows in my 50+ years -- from Muddy Waters to Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd and the Kinks and Bruce Springsteen from a spot so close to the stage that when I reached out my hand he slapped me five.

Notice how much brighter her smile is for her friend Alex...they have a magic between them...
us older folks like your band ! takes me back to my youth.

Hard to believe Jade is 43 years old
Which would make her closer to 50 now? That can't be right -- could've sworn she was in her 30's..
Whaaattttt ??????
No way!
@@tothesky8799 51 now
@@davehughesfarm7983 she’s 41 everyone 🤦🏻♂️
Jade's voice !!!❤❤❤❤
Stay always as a band, please. You guys are awesomeeee.
I listen for Jades voice
I wonder if everyone thinks Alex Ebert is Edward Sharpe like everyone thought that Peter Noone was Herman of Herman and the Hermits?
Well, he said he kinda is
Edward died though. Good thing Alex is still alive
Amen! Im right there with you. At this point in life I search for music that is real and resonant. This band brings it all and their shows are like old timey revivals that leave me feeling alive and grateful and nourished!
Man...he loves the sound of his own voice.
Wow you go against all of this ...goodbye
What did you mean? He's the lead member🤣
All them spoke and only at the end the blong girl asked sth to Jadel and she finally could speak
Lol what's he supposed to do? Just not talk?
Best band in the world right now. Love how carefree they are... they make me so happy!
I guess I'm one of those older people now. Great music, full sound, creative.... just makes me listen.
Alex's voice is amazing....

I wish Jade and Nora talk more.
they played too much of their music during this vid. like I've already heard all of their work I wanted to listen to them talk!
Love LOVE this band!!! Can't wait to see them at Memphis in May!!! Yaaay!!!! :-) this music is contagious, always makes me so happy!! Love xoxo's
A happy hippy mix of Dylan and Cash all rolled up together in a nice Joint to give maximum enjoyment and musical dreams, every single one of their songs are uplifting and amazing!
They were a WONDERFUL closing act at MoPop 2013! First concert/festival experience and it had the PERFECT ending. :)
All they needed was a great manager to evenly distribute power and peace. They would still be together today.
Jade is so cute!!!
ed's voice... gooooddddddd what a beauty
memphis in may great! i'm only 50 miles north. so glad i read your comment
Please come in Italy!!!
the best band that doesn't recognized enough
I want to see them live now...ARGH! I hate going to concerts.
And the voice of the band gets pushed aside ,,,, without Jade they are nothing and will go by the wayside pony tail and all
A year later and this is true. Dont hear much from them anymore.
Unfortunately she was an addict and it's not okay to keep her in an environment where that is fuelled
So true without Jade it’s not same band how can they hit miss her 🤷♀️
anybody else see in her eyes that Jade wanted to say something real bad as she sat there and picked her fingernails holding it in. I guess that's why she left the band shortly after this interview.
Actually it was bc she had an intense drug addiction so they booted her
@@mouseylaro I doubt it..
his Music is great, but he acts like a Guru and she beside him like a Little Person
Same!
well Edward sharpe is a cult leader type character. life imitates art lol. can't believe they fired her
Thank you.
I am home…
A very cool bunch with originality too often lacking these days. They have substance! that is why older people would like this stuff like the days of old.
These neo hippie hipster bands copy and imitate what they see on documentaries and 1960'-1970's band imagery.
feow33 Your response proves that there's some truth to what I said.
i am 63 years old and i just love these guys..every time i hear " home " i just have to move like did when i was smoking industrial amounts of pot and had hair lmao
@@wayneatkins7514 industrial amounts of pot lmao
I always think of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes and being the indie folk Sly and the Family Stone.
With a very similar downfall....
Love this band!
there coming to michigan this summer kalamazoo &sterling heights mi. mo pop festival i got to see them first time i saw them big easy express on showtime
I hope you got to see that show and that it meant something for you.
Amazing
They aren't, they're broke up, he's with another girl and had a baby with her.
fun fact ... they met at Preston's college in Lancashire ... Alex was doing bricklaying and jade was taking a small animal care course
I so wish they would get back together
Wow the Manson family finally cut an album
Were you at XPoNential this year? You could've seen Dawes (if it wouldn't have flooded) and Edward Sharpe.
Alex voice reminds me Ryan Gosling voice
Same
Totally
love them
Love that Ethel from the office is just vibing
Alex Ebert looks like Khal Drogo
The guy in the black peacoat looks like The Theon greyjoy
nahh...maybe in the face a litle but Khal Drogo is way bigger.
lol yeah I just meant his face
Not at all
this is the first time ive seen him with a shirt on
I love his voice
I think they were, but apparently not anymore.
LOVE!

you were just too stoned when you made that comment....she got kicked out because of the drugs she was doing but they're nothing without her voice
Hahah yeah, same here man. At first I was like, meh...goofball hippy types from the south, whatever.
Turns out they're all from LA. Kind of gives it a bit of a "heavens gate" sort of vibe
Lots of talented musicians, but being led by Alex Ebert without Jade makes them nothing but a bunch of Zeros
Nora (on the far left) is unbelievably hot.
+nonnanevrotica no kidding, every member prob has had her....
she's hot, I didn't say she's a bitch.
Funny how little video on the departure of Jade.
ya..i'd like to know what happened her
thelongfella555 Maybe Alex was banging Nora Kirkpatrick, I mean afterall she's a hottie!!!
S.L. Ayer She left a long time ago. I think she is search for me.
luvsilly60 she got fired
+thelongfella555 she started using heroin so they kicked her out
Just got into this band what was the first song?
i love hem and im only 16 hehe
Agreed! I love Beirut
Jade looks a lot like Ross O'Donovan.
I love this type of music. The only problem is in today's society, the only cool music is the type that says nigga every other word.
hippies :) great band ! love love love !
Ima Robot brought me here.
3:00 Terence McKenna playing trumpet
Jade needs her fix!😢
Yes! I wish I could see you at LouFest tomorrow. Broke as a bird...
I love this band! but he has to get rid of the man bun!
Lookin laid back. Lookin good.

"My riches consist not in the extent of my possessions, but in the fewness of my wants." - Joseph Brotherton
Jade looks like my mom, this is weird xD
Body language and facial expression shows extreme discomfort among the band members
Ryan Gosling? is that you?
His speaking voice is total ryan gosling and then his singing voice sounds much older an old folk country singer/hippie era
the music from 4:45 ?

skaboydave thank you!!
my hippie alarm is freakin out beee dooo beee dooo haha naw joke i love that band. think theire a bunch of kind people
