I dream of the day Mark returns to writing jaw droppingly beautiful songs like this. I understand he needs to follow his muse, but he lost me after Benji.
Same, I don't know what the hell happened to his music. It sounds like drunk mumbling over a half-assed backing track he created. His music used to be so soulful and full of emotion, but now it just comes off to me as angry drunk banter.
@PapaGeorg10 Nothing to do with money, there are literally thousands of musicians who'd play with him for free. Just a creative move.
@@evanwynnnn your opinion is garbage
@@tonaldculpepper4119 must suck to enjoy pure garbage but to each it’s own
Dunno, his newer music is really beautiful in its own way. Common as Light and Love is easily one of his greatest masterpieces, certainly one of his most emotional. I Also Want to Die in New Orleans ends off with Bay of Kotor, which is also quite moving on a primal level. There are plenty of these moments to be found on Universal Themes and Mark Kozelek, plus others. Yellow Kitchen's a bit boring, but there's a lot of substance there that is uniquely provocative in comparison to the rest of his catalogue. Mark still has a lot to offer. People are really hung up on Benji, but he really has so much more to offer. You just have to pay attention and engage with what he's doing. That doesn't mean if you do so, you'll like it. But for people to assume there's nothing powerful there is quite ignorant.
this is one of the most important live recordings ever, please never rid of it
Please, never delete this version off RUclips. I brings so much peace to me.
I wont, I promise!
@@FarmInAfrica but in the caption, you said you will if asked. So I am asking. Delete it.
@@bikeflu I will if you own the rights to this recording?
Just download it
If only I could fall in tears...instead of having goosebumps in a weary afternoon, southwest of France. The beauty of the sadness in life. ❤️
I've had 2 bottles of wine and just discovered this. Tears are very close.
I just can't tell you how perfect this version is of one of the most beautiful songs he has ever written.
Can't listen to this without crying. And I never cry.
And THIS version, saved my life. So sad and beautiful at the same time. I have this sayig, : Ensure you love yourself before you pretend to love others. This song encapilates this.
This is beyond priceless.
One of the best songs, performances ever.
Mark is a genius.
The tears begin to flow, so many memories surface, bittersweet, moving my heart and soul.
Taking me back in time, to the present and future.
The lyrics are...
Moving. Timeless. Beautiful. Painful. Cathartic. Nostalgic.
Full of memories, reflection and melancholy.
With beauty that falls, in between
Grateful for the smiles and the tears in life.
It seems that we cannot have one without the other.
It is like a circle.
Such a treasure here.
Thank you, Mark.
Much love, hope and healing to all 💞
Perfectly symmetrical sentiment. This song captures the despair of loss and burnout so perfectly and keeps calling us to love ourselves. To never stop loving ourselves. To never forget to love ourselves, because we are more beautiful than the withered garden of banalities that we wander in our daily lives. Have you forgotten to love yourself?
when i listen to kozelek sing, it's like i am not myself. it makes me feel like a child. memories flood my mind, tears flood my eyes. his songs sound like finding your old film rolls.
I wonder if Mark Kozelek knows how f'ing beautiful that opening lyric really is.
"I can't let you be because your beauty won't allow me..."
Perfect.
He's a national treasure. I feel for anyone who isn't moved by his songs/treatment of covers.
I am transported to my childhood and youth when I listen to Mark Kozelek sing. Yearning for those familiar voices, those faces I loved, my sisters' faces.
I remember when I was in love, so many vivid memories. The beauty of it, the memories are bitter sweet. I can honestly say I miss it, the obsession, the love, the pain, the sorrow, for what its worth, love is priceless, there's nothing like it. Maybe one day I'll fall back in it.
Leaking Blood That is beautiful and right on the money.
I hope everyone who is fortunate enough to still be alive decides to revisit this song. Never forget it! This is timeless art in its purest form !!!
I've made so many bad decisions and I think my time is close, and although my life is mental anguish I try to be thankful that I've been able to hear beautiful music and experience the love of my family. To all others struggling with things, whatever it may be, I hope you find the strength to live with dignity and as much love as possible. I've traded my principles for temporary relief and it's no way to live.
I hope you find peace in this life. So much beauty to live for. This is one of those things
I get by because i find others like you who are trying everyday to just keep our mouth above the water. This song takes me right back to when he left. How air didnt seem right to breathe anymore. Yes i had forgotten and i dont think i can get it back especially now ironically i find out my lungs are quitting on me. I never smoked. I just cant breathe.
Please keep going. You needn't make a permanent decision for a temporary problem. Please stay
Stay alive fren. ||-//
I hope you are well
This is the first time I've ever heard of Mark Kozelek and this song made me cry.
I have been a music lover and a musician for most of my 33 years on this earth and have rarely heard something that moved me like this. ~josh~
God......Its been awhile since I heard something that reminding me of something so sweet like maple syrup and warm spring day in the afternoon back when I am still a child............. Thanks for the upload!
"I can't let you be, cause you're beauty won't allow me." WOW this might be my favorite song of all time. So perfect and so well written. Pure genius
Wow - what a song. Just discovering Mark - bought April and Admiral Fell Promises. This song is so beautifully sad - what is his magic?? I long for my childhood and I feel it listening to this song. No snowflake here - just old and trudging the slow road to death.
Songs for a Blue Guitar is one of the most beautiful albums ever written. Even the covers got turned into slow, dense, and hauntingly depressing instrumentals to fit with the even better originals on the album. I’ve never found a musician or album that’s made me feel as deeply and intensely melancholic and mesmerized as Mark Kozelek
I agree considering people loving this kind. I like everything from the album, favs. track 1, 9, 8, 2, 3. Silly Love Song it's depressing and quite long
The most beautiful song ever written.
Nihao's It Going?
I’m beginning to think so.
Have You Forgotten…The song which speaks to my soul more than any other… not sure why. It is nostalgic of experiences I can relate to. But it’s a ballad of love & melancholy, something that captivates me… Because everything in life is About LOVE. Both… It’s gains AND LOSSES.
I saw Mark do a solo performance in a small theater in a small city. One of the most surreal experiences of my life. I find it hard to listen to him now without sinking into a depression- but its worth it.
I like to imagine mark's voice here as an ancient, weathered boat traveling in the dead of night. the cellos are the moving water, and the guitars are its waves and crashes
thats such a beautiful way to see it. thank you for this
I didn't think it possible for this song become more beautiful, but man does Mark just continue to outdo himself
This song cuts deep. It's hard not to cry when I listen to it. It pulls my beating heart out of my chest and melts it into a puddle of meloncholly. It's haunting as it is beautiful. It's impossible not to be moved by this gorgeous song.
The beauty of this song is that it can be sung to a lover, a childhood friend, or a brother to a sister.
Mark's music is just goddamned hypnotic. It lays you peacefully down, then sends your heart on a dozen journeys at the same time.
GOD I love this song.
U said it brotha
Queso Grande aye
2019
Jesus...those strings are sublime.
This is better than both studio versions of this song. I can barely deal. This is too good.
Amazing, yes. Do you happen to know where I can purchase a copy?
❤
Heart wrenching
Ruins me every. Single. Time.
perhaps the saddest song i've ever heard but so beautiful
I'm a huge fan of Mark Kozelek and this ranks as one of his finest songs.. Completely gorgeous.
so many memories lie in this song for me... I wish I could go back and relive some of the greatest moments I have had in my life so far...
That guitar. Those strings. That voice.
This is the most amazing version of this song i've ever heard. Thankyou.
Her hand rests upon my heart
An unrequited desire
Unbelievably beautiful.
I've heard many versions of this song by RHP but this specific live version leaves me in melancholic mezmerization. Simply amazing.
Yeah, every version is beautiful but if I was forced to pick one I would have picked this one
Pure light! It is so beautiful it hurts!
Sadly beautiful. Something haunting about his voice. Like Roy Orbison.
Beautiful Song please play loud Forever Why ? Gets World 🌎 in Many way's and Have you Seen pain or Have you Forgotten the Angels around you ,Mark lyrics are Amazing Vinyl please ❤
I will always miss you.
Each day I don't listen some songs are the days that my eyes " are tyred of the daylight and the beauty " Then they turn deep brown even more that about the day I was born.
There's an incredible amount of authentic emotion in this song. It has been with me for some time now and I am really grateful for it. It calls in me own feelings which call me to listen deeper into myself again.
His songs are drastically different every time he plays them. .but still amazing every time
i might’ve forgotten how to love myself, and maybe my heart’s turned to ice… but i’ll never forget you, Noah. i miss you buddy.
I can't let you be, cause your beauty won't allow me
Wrapped in white sheets,
Like an angel from a bedtime story
And shut out what they say,
'Cause your friends are fucked up anyway
And when they come around,
Somehow they feel up and you feel down.
When we were kids, we hated things our parents did
We listened low to Casey Kasem's radio show
That's when friends were nice,
To think of them just makes you feel nice
The smell of grass in spring
And October leaves cover everything.
[Repeat: x2]
Have you forgotten how to love yourself?
I can't believe all the good things that you do for me
Sat back in a chair like a princess from a faraway place
Nobody's nice, when you're older your heart turns to ice
And shut out what they say;
They're too dumb to mean it anyway
When we were kids, we hated things our sisters did
Backyard summer pools and Christmases were beautiful
And the sentiment of coloured mirrored ornaments
And the open drapes
Look out on frozen farmhouse landscapes
[Repeat: x6]
Have you forgotten how to love yourself?
i wanna remember
Never heard this one being played live. "....when they come around, somehow they feel up, and you feel down...." Yup. Know this feeling so well.
Part of me wants to go on my rooftop and tell everyone that Mark Kozelek is the best singer/songwriter of the last 25 years. The other part wants him to remain anonymous and be "my obscure favorite". I wouldn't wish the Red House Painters on anyone. I spent 10+ years listening to them EVERY day. Some people use drugs/alcohol to cope, I use music.
He's not really obscure though.. just saying. Not anymore.
@@richgiff960 yeah, he wasn't even obscure a decade ago.
I hear you, buddy!
That is even more moving than the original "have you forgotten..." which I thought was impossible to top. Bravo! Love, from Salt Lake City.
Yes. I find myself thinking the same.
that makes two of us in SLC
thinking about the "frozen farmhouse landscapes" of my childhood in SLC. Greetings from Prague.
This song with strings is epic! Bravo!
I’m from a small town north Ohio just like he is. The way he’s always sung was a connection to his roots. Listen to Carry Me Ohio, the multiple versions to see what I mean. Either way this live version hits the core of emotions because it channels into innocence, doubt, pain and hope at the same time.
his voice is haunting, it makes my heart ache. love you Mark
Went to the movies to see Vanilla Sky over winter break in my freshman year in college, loved the movie and went out the next day to buy the soundtrack. Great music top to bottom, however, this song stuck out for obvious reasons. Been a fan of the Red House Painters and Mark's work ever since. Soul touching stuff which is rare by today's standards.
Well, there's 15 soulless people out there.
better than i thought avtually
Some of us drink to soothe ourselves and some of us listen to Mark.
It's not often that somthing affects me at my core. I'm sort of a tough guy type, however this song will put a lump in my throat and make me think of a very special girl, who will never understand just how amazing she is...
Same here
I really get lost in this music. I keep getting each release he puts out and they keep getting better!
wow, I loved the original but this is something special
Yes i agree
When im sad, depressed, drunk, high, happy, joyous this song never ceases to move me.
Posted 11 years ago...and here i am..ohh nooo....😭
wow... dont exactly cure my nostalgic yearnings :/
I've heard the guy is a bitter man and the product of a terrible childhood. Its unfortunate, but his own misery is self-evident in his music; unbelievable amounts of emotion. But hell, you were there for the music, at least that was worth it.
God I love Ghosts of the Great Highway. Very nice Mark K tune here. I must make time to hear more of this guy.
The memory I have attached to this song. So grateful
He just played tonight in London Union Chapel and it was fantastic. I managed to have a chat with him in person and also get my cd signed. He is awesome and a great guy. Thanks Mark for you beautiful music!
Mark, I have always heard Steve Howe, in your acoustic playing. There's this progressive side of you when you play, I hope I'm not the only one who thinks this.
Such such a beautiful song. The music and different style he plays it live sounds even more raw and heartfelt than on the album
Thank you for uploading, what a version.
One of the best...So in love with this...
And thank you Mark for not being the asshole people say your are and shutting this down. Incredible performance. We love you.
Love all of you:) Thank you Mark Kozelek
So beautiful!
Just.... incredible! Nostalgia overload!!
Please never take this version of the song off you RUclips. It brings all the peace in the world to me. Thank you for sharing it with us!
This one really steals your soul.
I miss you.
I almost need to force myself to only listen to this version every once in a while. I don't know what I'd do if I ever played it enough to get tired of it.
"I'm not crying, I'm just sweating from my eyes."
This rendition is fucking perfect
that was beautiful
'I had a farm in Africa' I love it one of my favourite movie lines.
dam good song always reminds me of vanilla sky movie.
Holy shit!!! Sounds even better!! I am so glad I searched rhp on RUclips!! Thanks for sharing this jewel
I love this
So good. Thank you Mark for your music.
This version is my favorite. Emotionally makes me feel the song. Love the strings.
@tomicken74 He is really one of the best song writers..I hear this and my body starts to shake with memory of friends and sun,and the sorrow of heartbreak and longing,the smell of grass,someones laughter,sharing hearts,I am just happy writing this..thank Mark,thank you..
so beautiful, i get lost in thought every time i hear this........
darn you tube are you trying to get me to cry...
You only get better with age..what Grace you live in
one of the few musical talents left in this world
Mark is a goddamn musical genius
A beatiful song!
please relase this gig as an album. As much as I lover your live stuff, this blows it all away
The point is ..Mark is a great poet.
God! His voice just destroys me...
this is a masterpiece
@WonderfulBliss
I can relate to that so much it's scary. I remember night-time road trips with friends now gone with this song among others, up in Norrbotten, ages ago.
