love johnny's music. his songs seem to have this effect on me: I can't stop listening to it. This song puts me to bed (i mean that in a nice way). It's been a lullaby of sorts for me. love johnny.
lyrics: time rolls the back wheels of my mind you helped me put the brakes on cause you're kind i wonder where you learned to be so good and i wonder if I'm doing the best i could i could be somewhere else i should be someone else but you wouldn't know me if i was you'd say i was a stranger just because you'd say i wasn't weak enough for you you'd want me just to feel as you do too i could be somewhere else i should be someone else but you shouldn't tell me what to do i'll only take the brakes off if you do and roll around like marbles on the floor please pick me up and roll me out the door i could be somewhere else i should be someone else but i guess i'm happy as i am sometimes i find it hard to be a man it's easier just to play the same old game of trying to forget my bloody name i could be somewhere else i should be someone else but how are you ah mister? i know what i'm called it's just you got me you got me you got me stalled
This is such a great music video. Genuine and meaningful. I believe mainstream music videos are made to please fans of a certain age or group. Usually there's no thought behind them, they are there to be streamed in a stan competition of whose idol gets the most views. I realized that the best music is not the most popular. And that's good, I guess. It seems to me that the obsession with fame and making huge sums of money ruins artists.
Time rolls the back wheels of my mind You helped me put the brakes on 'cos you're kind I wonder where you learned to be so good I wonder if I'm doing the best I could I could be somewhere else I should be someone else but You wouldn't know me if I was You'd say I was a stranger just because You'd say I wasn't weak enough for you You'd want me just to feel as you do too
Ok sing to me high n lonesome it's what I need The kind of time s we had before indeed All tomorrow s parties still lead back home A long n lonesome Road Johnny says it's all gone I still wonder if he s right or wrong With all his songs One thing for sure That time is gone Back to the front Just one more time Lonesome blues Just come along Left to its own devices I'll just say so long (Thanks Johnny you saved me so many times before)
a smashing performance of this song is freshly uploaded: Johnny in cologne, germany, end of november - look for: "Johnny Flynn and the sound of a rat"!
actually he is from england NAAAADES went to my school in winchester and im in england and i can watch it so sort your computer out and dont blaspheme against the flynnster
i love the bit where he's dressed up as a pregnant lady and starts skipping around although in general this video really FREAKS ME OUT it is wrong on so many levels love the music though
Why oh fucking why, when I try to view the video for The Box, does it say "Not available in your country"!!!! Exactly what the hell is the point in that?? Your not from the USA, therefore your not good enough to watch or listen to my music! Nice! Thanks for that! Way to treat your fans :)
Best poet-musician-ancestral soul alive right now
Agreed! I"ve been working my way through his films too and I absolutely love him in every one so far.
@@blackmagic63109 for real. It's refreshing seeing someone creating such magical yet real, raw things
Yes. He is the best!
my senior quote: "i could be somewhere else, i should be someone else, but you wouldn't know me if i was."
jf is brilliant

love johnny.
Thank you so much for putting out such gorgeous music. I'm delighted to finally be getting my own copy of this vinyl.
Why do I feel sad and happy listening to this?
I cannot find artists/humans like him. He is so real and raw
Gorgeous song.
I'm digging the silly costuming going on. =]
Love this fellow and the whole Sussex Wit.
Especially as a "Wittle" - hilarious
The best music in English language in the last year.
Really beautiful.
Well, I'm listening and loving this in 2019, if you're not I don't care.
July 2020
Fuck it?
My OG hero.
A touch of the Propellors? Such a wistful song and such a wild and wonderful presentation.
this song made me cry
if I needed to choose my favourite song (which includes best voice, lyrics, feelings, style/genre and so on) I'd choose this one.
I can't wait to see him in Toronto!
lyrics:
time rolls the back wheels of my mind
you helped me put the brakes on cause you're kind
i wonder where you learned to be so good
and i wonder if I'm doing the best i could
i could be somewhere else
i should be someone else but
you wouldn't know me if i was
you'd say i was a stranger just because
you'd say i wasn't weak enough for you
you'd want me just to feel as you do too
i could be somewhere else
i should be someone else but
you shouldn't tell me what to do
i'll only take the brakes off if you do
and roll around like marbles on the floor
please pick me up and roll me out the door
i could be somewhere else
i should be someone else but
i guess i'm happy as i am
sometimes i find it hard to be a man
it's easier just to play the same old game
of trying to forget my bloody name
i could be somewhere else
i should be someone else but
how are you ah mister?
i know what i'm called
it's just you got me you got me
you got me stalled

it s mooving in a sense,i wish there would be more pieces like this.
that was well entertaining. hehe put a smile on my face!
you've gotta love johnny's low budget videos :D
The budget for this video was $72 million. I don’t call that low budget.
i think that was probably a joke, lad
i completely agree, he was amazing - especially as he was all on his own
Time rolls the back wheels of my mind

hes so lovely!!
he's great. lovely lovely song :)
Sweetest Johnny
Пока молоды творите добро и творите все, что любит Создатель!❤️🙏
God, he looks so young in this video. That’s crazy.
Amazing, he looks pretty in all incarnations. Eighties rock star, pregnant woman, no matter.
Lol the rock band’s name is The Witless-Johnny’s band is the Sussex Wit. Love it!
more songs please!! amo tu musica y voz
Ok sing to me high n lonesome it's what I need
The kind of time s we had before indeed
All tomorrow s parties still lead back home
A long n lonesome
Road
Johnny says it's all gone
I still wonder if he s right or wrong
With all his songs
One thing for sure
That time is gone
Back to the front
Just one more time
Lonesome blues
Just come along
Left to its own devices
I'll just say so long
(Thanks Johnny you saved me so many times before)
Come and play in Dublin, home of your influence WB Yeats ;)
xD i really like this video--its strangely amusing.
He was awesome at the Owl Parliament Festival. Spellbinding.
a smashing performance of this song is freshly uploaded: Johnny in cologne, germany, end of november - look for: "Johnny Flynn and the sound of a rat"!
He rocks that punk rocker makeup :P
Es tan precioso...💖💕💖💕💖💕
Johnny's a London boy. I'm playing with him on Thursday. But I think RUclips is having an identity crisis
This whole video is hilarious (':
Nice song dylan !! Haha
love this song:)
johnny flynn is very nice...
does somebody know where i can get "shore to shore"? cause i dont find it anywhere... :(
he does make a very beautiful girl i must say :)
this video made me lol
he went to bedales in hampshire, i know hime, do you?
This whole view
esta cancion con tickle me pink me hacen sonreir
I'm in love with the curvy chick at the end of the video. O-my! I wish she would have my baby
actually he is from england NAAAADES went to my school in winchester and im in england and i can watch it so sort your computer out and dont blaspheme against the flynnster
i love the bit where he's dressed up as a pregnant lady and starts skipping around
although in general this video really FREAKS ME OUT
it is wrong on so many levels
love the music though
how is this video weird? it's basically going along to what he's singing about. i thought it was awesome.
ahahah 4:01
"i fimd it hard to be a man"
Yeah, i feel you man. Proper annoying, it's such a good song,
I Just keep watching the live one on the Blogotheque. Lol
I swear one of the guys eating cake is George Ezra!?????
1 Person has the Brown Trout Blues.
i'm pretty sure hes actually from the uk
but that would be annoying, i see your point
it's soooo funny seeing him dress up in allthose clothes pregnant lady :D
I wish he would use his chest voice more like at 2:14, that was great. I know this is a slow song, but in other songs.
Does he not say "you got me, you got me, you got meeee STONED" ? On the uke chords, it says stalled but..
Jennifer Dennehy no it’s stalled
Why oh fucking why, when I try to view the video for The Box, does it say "Not available in your country"!!!! Exactly what the hell is the point in that?? Your not from the USA, therefore your not good enough to watch or listen to my music! Nice! Thanks for that! Way to treat your fans :)
So that is what Draco Malfoy is up to.
really nice song, a bit weird video?
Like a dramaclass gone crazy
He makes a hot woman.
Not a Whittle - but part of the Witless Group - just a whiff of Rutland Weekend Television
LOOL what a creepy creepy video...
Love the song
but the video...eh... not great
