Absolutely listen to a live recording! Lovejoy live is a whole other experience. The band has a tendency to change certain older songs, like the intro to Cause For Concern or the "Its ok, Anything to make me feel less numb" lyrics in Its All Futile. Wilbur is also super dramatic with his performance, which makes it all the more fun to watch. The call and response part of live is the best part tho. I can't listen to Lovejoy anymore without singing the response parts LOL. Lovejoy live is just overall crazy good, arguably better than the studio recordings, especially on their most recent tour.
A good recent perspective with a good front-row view is Ellen Bashore. They have a playlist with their Lovejoy gig recordings in order if anyone wants to watch :) MAJOR FLASH WARNING THO! Lovejoy concerts involve lots of flashing lights during songs :) (Edit: I put the wrong name lol)
Loving the mention of Tommy, Tommy is a close friend / (not related) younger brother of Wilbur and the band.Wilbur and Tommy met back in SMP Earth in 2019 I’m pretty sure :) by the way in the fall live, you can here james marriot, when it says ‘and the ramblers will say! MJames says what will they say?’
in ash kabosu's basslines we trust 🙏🙏 edit: also tommy is a close friend of the band - he kept a lot of the songs that they where going to cut on the albums (wilbur says that tommy is his 'younger brother')
The fall goes SO hard live it's so good! Another one that goes so hard live is Sex Sells. There is just a vibe at their concerts you don't get at other concerts. If you can you need to go to one!
at 7:03 you mention tommy while reading band members (I think lmao) even though tommy isn’t a part of lovejoy many people call him “unofficial 5th member of lovejoy” just because he was there with them from the start. Tommy also has a youtube channel called tommyinnit (also he has a vlog channel tom simons and a group channel with wilbur and other friends called sorry boys) fun fact tommy was the reason perfume wasn’t scrapped. Tommy basically really liked the song and just asked not to scrap it
Great video as always :)) I would reccomend concrete, model busses and you'll understand when you're older, there my all time favorite lovejoy songs. Also the ending of the fall is so cool! It's definetley up there with the best stuff they've made
You just summoned an entire fandom of Lovejoy and Wilbur soot enjoyers and have us hooked lol If you like Wilbur and Lovejoy music I recommend Los Campesinos! As they are Wilbur’s favorite band and inspire so much of his music and I recommend James Marriott if you like the indie rock vibe
its all futile its all pointless is one of my all time favorite wilbur songs and has been for years so when i saw that they would release a lovejoy version i was pretty skeptical but also excited and the definitely didnt disappoint like both versions are so different but absolutely amazing
Jsyk "Portrait of a Blank Slate" is creepy, but its actually supposed to be about society's relationship with sex and love. Raally deep and cool when you think about it.
the fall came on and i started playing along as i had my guitar in hand. my string snapped on the breakdown, that song is too lethal. i demand compensation! /j
i feel so excited anytime i see you post a new video! it's fun seeing other people getting a chance to enjoy lovejoy's music. you should really check out their first EP "Are you Alright?"
so the music video was actually edited by another RUclipsr “greenforsure” who did thier own version of IAFIAP with “Coolona” if you look it up it sounds just as good as the other 2 versions ❤
playing lovejoy songs on the uke or acoustic guitar is always so much fun bc the strumming patterns are wildly all over the place and i can improve where i want to and it still fits. 10/10 reccommend playing
The lyric videos that you used got a ton of lyrics wrong: 9:08 (It's nice to be around trees) 9:51 (The reams of grey stencils that fill the tapestry) 10:02 (Across the Pennines, there's a thin blue line, a knife, and a mall) 10:05 (I would do something, if it wasn't all so effortful) And these are just the big mistakes, I'm not including misspellings
I absolutely love your lovejoy reaction videos! I suggest you give Wilbur’s ‘The incel trilogy’ a go and or lovejoy’s covers for Privately owned spiral galaxy, Knee deep at ATP and The perfect pair!
Sadly, Oh Yeah You’re Gonna Cry is their official least favorite song. Like, the band members themselves don’t like it. It was officially retired from their set list last week I believe.
It’s all futile it’s all pointless is actually a lovejoy remake of wilburs song. Wilburs original it’s all futile (I think) was in the maybe I was boring EP and was written slower and on acoustic. The new lovejoy version has a few lyric changes and sounds obviously more like lovejoy than wilburs solo music but I’d highly recommend listening to the original acoustic version
When you were saying the members name and said Tommy
Tommy is like Wilbur’s platonic brother so it’s funny to me.
the 3rd is Joe Goldsmith if you love ash's bass I highly recommend model buses
6:28 “The more a musician looks like they just got a whiff of an awful smell, the better the music is” - someone, probably

Completely agree. The live experience at their LA concert on the current tour was just something else. It was amazing to see in person
the fall live is AMAZING. i highly recommend seeing them live if you can

8:25 OH IT DOES!! There is a video of me just screaming, “fucking scared, fucking scared!”
trust me the fall is amazing live. they have a whole chant and everything in it !! screaming it was an experience.
in ash kabosu's basslines we trust 🙏🙏
edit: also tommy is a close friend of the band - he kept a lot of the songs that they where going to cut on the albums (wilbur says that tommy is his 'younger brother')
brothers those two. it's so wholesome :]
Tommy was a savior for keeping perfume and then everyone got mad when he couldn't save coronado
@@juliannacontreras boss man tried 😩
7:05 Tommy was only in the "Sloppy Lovejoy Acoustic" video on the Wilbur Music account
The fall goes SO hard live it's so good! Another one that goes so hard live is Sex Sells. There is just a vibe at their concerts you don't get at other concerts. If you can you need to go to one!

I would reccomend concrete, model busses and you'll understand when you're older, there my all time favorite lovejoy songs. Also the ending of the fall is so cool! It's definetley up there with the best stuff they've made
Concrete number 1!
fun fact! The it's all futile music vid was fan made and the band asked if they could make it the official one :D
TOMMY AHAHHA amazing
HEY!! i have a video uploaded of the lovejoy concert in Amsterdam! The fall is in it and they play it so cool im sure youll love it!
You just summoned an entire fandom of Lovejoy and Wilbur soot enjoyers and have us hooked lol
If you like Wilbur and Lovejoy music I recommend Los Campesinos! As they are Wilbur’s favorite band and inspire so much of his music and I recommend James Marriott if you like the indie rock vibe
Both those guys are on my list and have done a video on James!
I agree with you about the bass, that is the very first thing that stood out to me when I first listened to Lovejoy
YOU PICKED MY TOP 3 PEBBLEBRAIN SONGS TO LISTEN TO
"And the ramblers will say..."
WHAT DO THEY SAY
"Its got a marvelous view"
OKAY :D
IIRC they actually did have trumpets on Pebble Brain but I might be misremembering. They definitely have at least one trumpet on tour with them rn!
its all futile its all pointless is one of my all time favorite wilbur songs and has been for years so when i saw that they would release a lovejoy version i was pretty skeptical but also excited and the definitely didnt disappoint
like both versions are so different but absolutely amazing
It would be my advice to use the Spotify lyrics as these first two lyric videos got some of the lyrics wrong.
I second that!
Jsyk "Portrait of a Blank Slate" is creepy, but its actually supposed to be about society's relationship with sex and love. Raally deep and cool when you think about it.
for its all futile, the mv was made by a fan using their studio footage, and the nanas are the repeated line of shut up from the chorus!!
when i went to the lovejoy concert i went so hard during the Fall that i thought i was gonna pass out after its just such a good song live
You’ve just summoned the whole lovejoy community-
Its all futile its all pointless was my yearbook quote
Thank you! Please continue with the lovejoy music, you're missing out on some of my favourite!
the fall came on and i started playing along as i had my guitar in hand. my string snapped on the breakdown, that song is too lethal. i demand compensation! /j
Hearing Lovejoy live is Even better!! There so good live and very loud I recommend model busses and concrete sm
i feel so excited anytime i see you post a new video! it's fun seeing other people getting a chance to enjoy lovejoy's music. you should really check out their first EP "Are you Alright?"
Joe: guitarist
Wilbur: guitarist and singer
Mark: drummer
Ash Kabosu: Bassist
so the music video was actually edited by another RUclipsr “greenforsure” who did thier own version of IAFIAP with “Coolona” if you look it up it sounds just as good as the other 2 versions ❤
Something tells me you'll really like their song "you'll understand when you'll older", cant wait for you to listen to more of their stuff!
Can confirm, the fall was the BEST song to hear live
I love the guitar in The Fall, it's great
The lyric video for The Fall is inaccurate by the way. At least a few lyrics that are incorrect.
i’m seeing lovejoy live today !! and like always i love seeing you react to them :)
MAKE SURE TO KEEP YOUR EARS WELL PROTECTED BUT HAVE FUN EITHER WAY
playing lovejoy songs on the uke or acoustic guitar is always so much fun bc the strumming patterns are wildly all over the place and i can improve where i want to and it still fits. 10/10 reccommend playing
I can confirm the fall goes so hard live
Listen to The Veltmans (Peers and The Decoy)
You should definitely listen to bears in trees and some more james Marriott. Love your reaction videos
BEARS IN TREES !!!!!
The lyric videos that you used got a ton of lyrics wrong:
9:08 (It's nice to be around trees)
9:51 (The reams of grey stencils that fill the tapestry)
10:02 (Across the Pennines, there's a thin blue line, a knife, and a mall)
10:05 (I would do something, if it wasn't all so effortful)
And these are just the big mistakes, I'm not including misspellings
I absolutely love your lovejoy reaction videos!
I suggest you give Wilbur’s ‘The incel trilogy’ a go and or lovejoy’s covers for Privately owned spiral galaxy, Knee deep at ATP and The perfect pair!
You look like the nicest person ever
Hey I think you should really listen to Tyler the creator especially igor I know it’s not at all close to lovejoy but I think you will really like him
theres a bit of an echo when the music for the fall is playing, idk what thats about but thought id let you know
mark does drums, ash does bass, joe does lead guitar, and wilbur does vocals and guitar. tommy is a friend who isnt actually really in the band
Hey at some point you should listen to bears in trees ^^
you're welcome
YIPPIEE!!!
yipee
You know, i agree, :^)
Sadly, Oh Yeah You’re Gonna Cry is their official least favorite song. Like, the band members themselves don’t like it. It was officially retired from their set list last week I believe.
