Jose on the meaning "I knew I wanted to sing about when you get caught in trivialities and you can’t see past your own horizon, and basically how you can make things seem bigger and more difficult than they really are. Almost sentimental, the lyrics …I mean its more of an observation, and also not…Almost like complaining about yourself and how you can get stuck in small things, and how you want to change that."
Saw Jose Gonzalez live at Green Man last weekend and I now I can't stop thinking about this song. Such a talent, so beautiful. His hands, his voice, his lyrics! Long may you continue to make music for us all.
That build up right before 3:05 that leads into the heavy part gives me freaking chills! Sounds so damn heavy just for a dude playing guitar and tapping his foot. He always has a driving rythem is his songs. I play bass and that's huge for me. He's incredible.
Guitar skills from another galaxy and the voice- oh my! Imagine Jose bedtime stories to his kids! Profound lyrics. Thank you Sony for using his music back in the early 2000s for Sony Bravia TV ads- that's how I stumbled upon most cool music through ad music!
Reading the comment and more than few people saying that it’s a sad song.. it doesn’t feel sad to me, it feels to me like an acceptance of the cyclic nature and the patterns we get stuck in and then a fresh look, “so what’s it gonna be?”. I get there are a twinges of sadness in the lyrics, but it doesn’t feel depressing or hopeless to me.
A profound and hauntingly beautiful song about the meaninglessness of life. Puts things into perspective for me... "Who cares in a hundred years from now, Who'll remember all the players, Who'll remember all the clowns.... So what does this really mean, When it all comes down, cycling trivialities..."
I am very slow to say that something is amazing, but this is surely one of the best things I have heard in my entire life. There are no words to describe something that is out of our dimensions ...
@@KS-yn5zw do yourself a favour and look up 'immigration' in the dictionary 😉 his name may also be a subtle giveaway that his ancestors aren't Scandinavian..
Too blind to know your best Hurrying through the forks without regrets Different now, every step feels like a mile All the lights seem to flash and pass you by So how?s it gonna be When it all comes down, cycling trivialities But don't know which way to turn Every trifle becoming big concerns All this time you were chasing dreams Without knowing what you wanted them to mean So how's it gonna be When it all comes down, cycling trivialities So how's it gonna be When it all comes down, cycling trivialities Who cares in a hundred years from now All your small steps, all your shitty clouds Who cares in a hundred years from now Who'll remember all the players Who'll remember all the clowns So how's it gonna be When it all comes down, cycling trivialities So what does this really mean When it all comes down, cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities Cycling trivialities

Hes playing the top 3 when he starts doing that, and he starts barring the a note, you can see it's a different way on the fretboard than the first time
Klaus Chamberlain I realized later on that he was hitting multiple strings. He’s tuned to cgcgad I believe. I got the tabs and they showed him hitting the low C and G strings simultaneously.
The interesting thing about José is he actually comes from another planet, where they teach children to fingerpick before they're allowed to walk. Also, this is possibly one of the greatest songs ever written.
This song effected me so strongly that I felt I had to do a version of it. It's an alternate version with a lot of layers. It's the latest video in my channel. Please check it out if Josés song has moved you.
Sublime, mais quand j'essaie de la jouer avec le capo en 2e ou en 4e frette ça sonne hyper faux. J'ai vérifié mon accordage (classique Mi La Ré Sol Si Mi) normalement c'est ok. Faut-il accorder sa guitare autrement ?
One of the most beautiful songs ever created. Still here, 2024.
I shed a tear when his voice blends in with his guitar
One of the greatest songs ever,I don't say that lightly
Listening to the song was euphoric but playing his song on my guitar... no words best decribe that feeling. The rhythm is so magical...
Now sing along with that, that's the feeling of love.
I feel ya, I looked this up and learned it by ear
Do you have any Good Guitar Tabs for this my Freind??? I love fingerpicking and this song is Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!
Jose doesn't make music, he makes magic.

My life needed this.
If I could live inside this song with a warm blanket and hot tea I would never leave!!!
He's right. What will be remembered of us and our work, our lives 100 years from now? The beauty and wonder is that we are here...now.
Frank Albin well there are people whose work is remembered in today's times a hundred or hundreds years later.A testament to their genius.
Hopefully Jose will be remembered 100 years from now. Or at least his music.

It's as big as any drop I've ever heard. It hits so hard
It's way better than the record version. His voice sounds light but it's deep.

Its just one of those perfect songs...its so hard to be a perfect song, and this is one of them..
True! 😢I love it so much ❤️ 🎶
Such a beautiful song. And this was all done live!!!
My hair grows back. My eyes can see again. My homework is all done. My life is complete...
Thank you Mr Gonzalez 😍
I replayed this song like 100x today lol
Can't really describe the beauty of this song. Goosebumps. Thank you 💚
I get goosebumps everytime also. One of my all time favorite songs!

I'm addicted to this song, I think I need help. Just one more time...
A profound and hauntingly beautiful song about the meaninglessness of life. Puts things into perspective for me...
"Who cares in a hundred years from now,
Who'll remember all the players,
Who'll remember all the clowns....
So what does this really mean,

I thinks it's more about people who have a meaningless life and don't take things serious therefore never getting anywhere.
@@StallionFernando It feels a lot more nihilistic than that. OP covered it.
You're cycling trivialities*
Magic luv it but
The best song of Jose.
Agreed.
Idk why this song makes me cry so much
I was looking for this comment because the same happens to me every time I listen to it
So many years have passed since I've been listening to this song; and ever got tired of it
Excellent on so many levels, but his articulation is particularly brilliant
3:04 on makes every hair on my body stand straight up. Absolutely incredible! His music has literally healed my mental state more than a few times.
Still listening, hits harder with everything going on. We will get through these cycling trivialities.. 🤙🏻 💙
Gold in music form
4:00 that's when the tears breakthrough. Otherworldly beauty
BASTANO UNA BELLA VOCE E UNA CHITARRA BEN SUONATA PER RIEMPIRE LE ORECCHIE DI OTTIMA MUSICA.
This is simply brilliant.
Absolutely gorgeous
Beautiful!
Simply magical from a magician
Some people play music, some people are music, lyrics and melody just make my soul feel better
Still shining....
Cycling trivialities....
Make peace and got it
I am very slow to say that something is amazing, but this is surely one of the best things I have heard in my entire life.
There are no words to describe something that is out of our dimensions ...
what a lovely lovely song
Such a moving performance.
Καταπληκτικός καλλιτέχνης,αυτή η κιθάρα... Μπράβο!
One of the few times where I prefer the live version over the studio recording.
Crazy how profound his lyrics are and English isn't even his first language
Jake Welch genial!!!
To be fair, Swedes are usually great English-speakers
Ikr!
Well, he doesn't write all his lyrics! This one is him, but Heartbeats is two other people!
@@KS-yn5zw do yourself a favour and look up 'immigration' in the dictionary 😉 his name may also be a subtle giveaway that his ancestors aren't Scandinavian..
My best song when i want to think about us...wish us the best luck ;)
Pure Blissful sounds, takes me back to 2006 when life felt natural and good for me. Peace x
Watty before smartphones 😉
endless inspiration
there is a version with Jose playing with the String Theory orchestra of Germany, also very well done.
I'm seeing him in St Louis soon. Can't freaking wait!
Oh man did you have a good time?? I had no idea he was coming here! I must've missed it
Mad love for his music
New Amsterdam brought me here ❤️
Como ciclo viajero quiero decir que RE-AMO este tema! 😍
His music is magic 💛
Love this song
BEAUTIFUL LYRICISM.
Beautiful song
Come again to Chile!
wow.. such a beautiful song! Thank you for that
Pure right hand magic.
You had me at your first note, you are great José González!
Very very good.
It reminds me to Mr. Miladin Šobić, one of for me best musicians in the world.
Amo essa música
what a beautiful piece of art.
yes.
Wow! I love this song.
Maravilhoso, cara!
Que música!
Just an amazing song.
Such brilliant music! Thank you.
thank you und thank you KEXP
Too blind to know your best
Hurrying through the forks without regrets
Different now, every step feels like a mile
All the lights seem to flash and pass you by
So how?s it gonna be
When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
But don't know which way to turn
Every trifle becoming big concerns
All this time you were chasing dreams
Without knowing what you wanted them to mean
So how's it gonna be
When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
So how's it gonna be
When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
Who cares in a hundred years from now
All your small steps, all your shitty clouds
Who cares in a hundred years from now
Who'll remember all the players
Who'll remember all the clowns
So how's it gonna be
When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
So what does this really mean
When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
Cycling trivialities
Cycling trivialities
Cycling trivialities
Cycling trivialities
Cycling trivialities
Cycling trivialities
Cycling trivialities

Perfection.
Man this is solid.
Really like when he starts hitting that low (top) string hard. Really adds intensity.

@@joelmorder9780 yeah, I just learned it recently, it's one of my favorite songs to play
José, soundtrack to a life
Obrigada Kaike, essa música me acalmou da ansiedade. Obrigada mesmo. 💙

Outstanding truely beautiful

Esta canción me flipa! It makes me feel so...sets me right :)
Who tf dislikes something like this?? I mean this is wonderful?!!🤷🏼♀️
I am wondering!
¡Qué bueno!
voice of a god

Your funny

Wow tão parecido com o estilo de música do Nick Drake. Incrível!

Has anyone made tabs for this yet? I would really appreciate it
Don't know if it' still relevant, but there are tabs here:
tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/601734
Voice/guitar
What tuning does he use in the guitar to play it?
Now I'm kind of curious whose that one dislike is :)

Maybe someone who has trouble acknowledging the pain they’re in.
