This song is SO GOOD. out of so many amazing 90s songs this gets slept on so hard. Atlantic should pay out a little money to get this higher in search results and on 90s comps and playlists
You're spot on. Such a great singer song-writer. I saw him at Poor David's Pub in front of 50 people. in Dallas. After the show I walked up to him and said, "Some day you'll be rich and famous." He looked at me and said, "no one deserves that," and laughed.
THE LAST OF ONE OF THE GREATS THIS WHOLE BAND IS NOTHING LIKE THE 1990S WILL NEVER SEE THIS TYPE OF MUSIC AGAIN OR PEOPLE OF STYLES AND CULTURE THIS WAY AGAIN
At one of his gigs, Taste of Minnesota in St. Paul, some guy was heckling him and he literally stopped playing this song, jumped off stage, and started fighting the dude. Show was over. Best show ever! 👌🏽
@@mattyjyo89 I guess nothing that special. He loved the Replacements and neil young and costello and marshall crenshaw but none of them helped him on his climb.
@@mattyjyo89 Oh here is a story: At one of his gigs, Taste of Minnesota in St. Paul, some guy was heckling him and he literally stopped playing this song, jumped off stage, and started fighting the dude. Show ended.
A great song about wrong wrong wrong. Johnston's songs are often about troubled loners and cover topics like heartbreak, alienation, and disappointment. Known for his songcraft, he has been described as a "songwriter's songwriter"
Was already a fan by the time this was broadcast, but about six year before I saw him regularly at Maxwell's after I moved to Hoboken. Who's in this band??

An unappreciated genius.

@@TheDimachaerus and you were wrong
@@Hoboscouts if you can make half a mil singing songs, you're doing alright.
Agreed
Lead guitarist, high harmonies and all the lead duties well done
Looks like Mark Spencer, who is currently touring with Son Volt. Dude shreds.
The drummer legit loves this song, just look at him.
Maybe too much . Fred got rid of him for the next time on Conan.
He looks like he's on acid or something, but he still played it well
So do I.
still a great song in 2020 !
2023!
2024!
I love this song. Greetings from Spain
We got to see Freedy at The Turnig Point in NY. One of the best shows ever!

Perhaps that's why we all relate to him 😕💕🤔🌞
@@aztea4uandme so true, they don't even make emojis troubled enough for our kind.
@@oppothumbs1 well that's a little narcissistic to say but yeah sure why not? Your one of my kind/NIN 💞
“Down in Love” and “Mortician’s Daughter” have haunted me for years! He is special !
Freedy Johnston top of his game!

Sweet lyrics
Graham Maby from the Joe Jackson Band on bass!!!
Joe Jackson is no slouch of a musician, any player hired by him knows what the hell they're doing
Nice!
Love Freedy. An Underrated treasure. Who's that drummer?
Ezra Holbrook?

Was already a fan by the time this was broadcast, but about six year before I saw him regularly at Maxwell's after I moved to Hoboken. Who's in this band??
Of course I know the legendary bass player, Graham Maby!
THE drummer IS GOOD LOOKING LOOKS LIKE DAVID BERKOWITZ AKA THE SON IF SAM. WHO IS NOW A PASTOR 🙏💚
What a song. What a voice. He should have been the next Tom Petty.
GOTS to be Graham on Bass...... Spector and SPECTOR ØNLY 🎸
Harry Bosch on lead vocal
Penn jillette on drums
This made me laugh out loud for real ? 😂
Looks like the drummer was on mushrooms or something, dude was super into it
Kingpin 😂 Munsun
There was a video of Freedy performing this song on Letterman and it has vanished off the internet. Was better than this
