"I Like The Things About Me" by Mavis Staples from the new album 'One True Vine,' out June now! iTunes: smarturl.it/OneTrueVine Anti Store: www.anti.com/store
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. Psalms 139:14 KJV This is why I love the things about me that I used to despise. If God loves me, The way I am. Why shouldn't I? Yes, why shouldn't I?
This is one of the, if not the best, song of 2013. Mavis, you my dear, are a treasure. Listening to a musician with so much depth and breadth of experience expel the past and take wonder in the evolution of character resonates to my core. I am not a spiritual man but your album is di-One True Vine.
Great 1st release from Mavis Staples' latest album. I saw her this past year on tour with Bonnie Raitt, and seeing Mavis was like finding a Church I could be faithful to!
Mavis' groovy voice, a groovy behind the scenes video in the Wilco loft, and a groovy lick from father/son collab Jeff and Spencer Tweedy. What more could you ask for?
I looked in the mirror, and what did I see? An brand new image of the same old me Oh but now I wonder why should I be surprised I like the things about me that I once despised There was a time I wished my hair was fine And I can remember when I wished my lips were thin, Oh but now I wonder why should I be surprised I like the things about me that I once despised I like the things about me that I once despised Makes no difference my young, how you may feel I done reached the ṗoint where I wanna be real I'm tired of living, living in disguise I like the things about me that I once despised I like the things about me that I once despised I like the things about me that I once despised Source: Musixmatch Songwriters: Roebuck Staples / Martha K Stubbs
Seen Mavis last night in Milwaukee, she opened for robert cray, he should seriously think of hooking up with a lesser act because Mavis stole the show!!
@@jordianimates255 I finished it in one day. I wasn't a huge fan of the Claire subplot but the rest of it was amazing, especially the Christmas episode.
u watched the The Bear and u like the outro
trew
Happy 75th Birthday, Ms. Mavis. (Yes, it was last week!:)
I could listen to you all day long. (Still)
This song had a freshness to it I can't explain.
YOU ARE RIGHT , THIS SONG WOULD SOUND VERY DIFFERENT WITH ANOTHER SINGER .
The Freshness is the uniqueness. It is always refreshing to hear or see something that is not like everything else.
Great filthy low-end sound to this song
This is fantastic
just became my new favorite song of all time!
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
Psalms 139:14 KJV
This is why
I love the things
about me
that I used to despise.
If God loves me,
The way I am.
Why shouldn't I?
Yes, why shouldn't I?
You can hear the sound of grunge and grit in this music. The sound of hardship and overcoming it. We love you, Queen Mavis.
This is, by far, my favorite song from this amazing album!
End credits of The Bear season 2, episode 3, thank you
I'm SOOOOO in love with this record! Dammit...this is GREAT music!
Soulful, funky. Real music for those of us who prefer it that way. Love it!
My little grand daughter is named "Mavis" after Mavis Staples! Great song and great message!

Mavis' groovy voice, a groovy behind the scenes video in the Wilco loft, and a groovy lick from father/son collab Jeff and Spencer Tweedy. What more could you ask for?

You don’t choose the van life the van life chooses you

SANG IT MAVIS you can't get any better than this.
I love seeing Spencer on the drums!
INCREIBLE! Así de fácil.
Fabulous.
Yes Chef
This song saved my life
so cool
Oh so brilliant! It's like an easy to swallow pill of self-acceptance coated in honey and wrapped groovey blues-ness.
💛💛
WELL PUT. THUMBS UP!!!!!!
If there's a live stage recording of this, I'd love to hear it.
The Bear, season 2, episode 3, will honor this song
She's one cool lady!!
Bravo
I looked in the mirror, and what did I see?
An brand new image of the same old me
Oh but now I wonder why should I be surprised
I like the things about me that I once despised
There was a time I wished my hair was fine
And I can remember when I wished my lips were thin,
Oh but now I wonder why should I be surprised
I like the things about me that I once despised
I like the things about me that I once despised
Makes no difference my young, how you may feel
I done reached the ṗoint where I wanna be real
I'm tired of living, living in disguise
I like the things about me that I once despised
I like the things about me that I once despised
I like the things about me that I once despised

oh YEAH!!!!!
Mavis Staples and Tom Waits on the same label. There is a God.
Mrs. Mavis this is my new Anthem💋💋💋
Seriously just discovered her the other day. Guys hate me at the bar.
yes.
Above all...To Thine Own Self Be True
The bear( hulu) brought me here.🔥🔥🔥
I want to hear her and Jack White do a duet with this, they would shred it together!
Huzzah!
Whoa hold up. Spencer Tweedy played drums?! Niiiiice
I knew Jeff Tweedy helped with this record but still. Pretty cool.
bad ass
Is this the staples singers song-I love this btw
Seen Mavis last night in Milwaukee, she opened for robert cray, he should seriously think of hooking up with a lesser act because Mavis stole the show!!
the lady is kelly hogan, great singer, cool lady, sings a lot with neko case
I like this living room too
Not taking away from Spencer's drumming but I would love to see Brian or Brady Blade play some drums with Mavis.
à 71 ans et toujours la flamme
3 dislikes. Wow, some people don't know a good song when they hear one.
Tuff
couldn't help pause it and look at the studio.
Kitten that would be a beautiful callabo ;)
Yvonne was one of the singers on this? You wouldn't happen to know who the gentleman and the other lady singing was would you?
a great combination it would be Mavis Staples & Ben harper
or Steve Jordan.
I just know essie finch will like this.
Came from The Bear
same, this new season is fantastic!
@@jordianimates255 I finished it in one day. I wasn't a huge fan of the Claire subplot but the rest of it was amazing, especially the Christmas episode.
The Bear brought me here.
Me, too. Fantastic song!
Oh Mavis, if only I wasn't a married man!
I like this but I prefer the original with Pops Staple on lead.
i found out they are Donny Gerrard and Vicki Randle
The bear
is it about lesbainiens?
this song is so sexy!
dont make fun of blind people, they just missed the like button
The bear S2EP03
It's quite possible that I'm your third man, girl
...but it's a fact that I'm the seventh son
Good, but not close to the beauty of the version on the Wattstax soundtrack.
