Man...if you non musician people could only hear what we musicians hear when we listen to incubus! There is so much going on in the the background with the tone that its insane.
slickcross I only barely play guitar and occasionally play drums, but I can hear so much richness in this performance. I’ve listened to this version of Punch Drunk at least 300+ times alone LOL
What makes Incubus the best ever is the passion every member shares in the music. Brandon's voice is as amazing live as it is on albums. Mike slaughters the guitar every time he touches it. Ben is a savage on the bass. Jose keeps the beat no matter what. And DJ Killmore goes from SCIENCE to this and keeps his passion. They have the MOST TALENTED band EVER. Incubus is the best ever. There is no argument.
If there was a single performance of a song that I wish I could attend in person, it would be this version. 5 talented, creative dudes at the peak of their powers. EDIT: thanks all for the engagement. I did in fact see them in 2015 and 2017 to support their Trust Fall and 7 albums. But they never played this 🥲
Saw them perform this song in San Diego in 07. Epic! I know they played it during their encore, if I remember correctly, right before they performed Aqueous Transmission.
Literally my exact words before looking through the comment section.. Incubus could make an awesome album just with songs they chose not to go with i.e "crowded elevator" etc..
Honey Punch Drunk is on the beautiful, poetic masterpiece that is Monuments & Melodies, between Anything & Admiration. You must not be a die heard Incubus fan. This 26 song album is definitely worth a listen. The first 14 songs are singles you may know, & the last 11 are not & all just as magical as this ( I said 11 for one is a very unique acoustic version of A Certain Shade of Green, which is a single from S.C.I.E.N.C.E)
Being there and listening this live version of punch drunk... Feeling the air and wind on my skin while listening. That would be the most passionate moment of my life, i guess
I'm sitting here in front of my PC and have a successful day selling gold! That is my life. Every time I reach a climax in my life, I long for that one song. Why is that? For me personally, the entirety of this one moment is right. I thank Incubus for speaking so deeply to my heart. You are one of the few who have managed that I have been with you for years. Mike Einziger is an exotic guitarist. There are just no words for this band.
[Lyrics] _Did I park my car?_ _If I found it I would drive so far from here_ _The city streets are dim_ _And my hands are tempted once again_ _To give in_ _I'm having trouble seeing_ _I'm punch drunk and_ _I need to find a way back home_ _It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige_ _I will survive_ _On this island I am stuck_ _Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?_ _I'm on the road and my thumb is out_ _I'm hitchin home tonight I am without a name_ _Where was it that I lived?_ _Well nevermind just take me with you_ _And forgive_ _My lack of information_ _I'm punch drunk and_ _I need to find a way back home_ _It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige_ _I will survive_ _On this island I am stuck_ _Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?_ _I will survive_ _Tonight I wander and I roam_ _Just lookin for a way back home tonight_ _The sun is coming up_ _I think I've had my fill_ _Wait, who the fuck are you?_ _Where did I park my car?_ _Please forgive my_ _Lack of information_ _I'm punch drunk and_ _I need to find a way back home_ _It'd be a miracle, ohhh_ _I'm having trouble seeing_ _I'm punch drunk and_ _I need to find a way back home_ _It'd be a mircale if you'd oblige_ _I will survive_ _On this island I am stuck_ _Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?_ _I will survive_ _Tonight I wander and I roam_ _Just lookin for a way back home tonight_ _Spare me, a ride, a ride tonight_ _Spare me, a ride, a ride tonight_ _On this island I am stuck_ _Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?_ _Tonight I wander and I roam_ _Just lookin for a way back home tonight_
I did fall in love with that song in 2018 the first time I heard it. And in live here it's a level of greatness. It becomes an exceptional moment.His amazing clear, transparent voice surely win over music lovers. If you close your eyes and then open them, it's like you're seeing it for the very first time.This music is permeated with intense atmospheres and the rhythm come inside us. You close your eyes and you feel like in a hypnotic state.
I remember when I discovered them and my friends were giving me shit. I let them barrow my disc and they back tracked their opinions quickly. Great band for sure.
Unreal how amazing they sound live, that's why they're my favorite. Such an incredibly talented band, in looking sooo forward to the new album & tour this year!!!
They did this live when I saw them recently I couldn't help but close my eyes and really feel what the message of this is...I'd just broke up with someone and I was hurting so bad but in that moment I felt like Brandon Boyd understood and the words were hitting my heart and soul the way nothing else ever has I'll never forget it.
Can't believe this is 10 years ago. Crazy. I've loved this song since I first heard it on the Look Alive DVD, always have the DVD in my car and I must've watched it like 100 times or more, I watch it anytime I get to a destination too early and just sit in the car and chill lol. Feel like I know them so well cause I see them so often :D 10 years though.. doesn't feel so long.
I really need them in Puerto Rico, as in... Pronto, my favorite band ever, how to forget the first time I heard drive in a movie and I fell in love, then I heard Black Heart Inertia in the radio and was hooked.

Did I park my car? If I found it I would drive so far from here The city streets are dim And my hands are tempted once again To give in... I'm having trouble seeing I'm punch drunk and I need to find a way back home It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige I will survive On this island i am stuck Could you correct my crooked luck tonight? On the road my thumb is out I'm hitchin home tonight I am without a name Where was it that I lived? Well nevermind just take me with you And forget... The lack of information I'm punch drunk and I need to find a way back home It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige I will survive On a silent I am stuck Could you correct my crooked luck tonight? I will survive Tonight I wander and I roam Just lookin for a way back home tonight The sun is coming up I think I've had my fill Wait, who the fuck are you? Where did I park my car? Please forgive my... Lack of information I'm punch drunk and I need to find a way back home It'd be a miracle, ohhh I'm having trouble seeing I'm punch drunk and I need to find a way back home It'd be a mircale if you'd oblige I will survive On this island I am stuck Could you correct my crooked luck tonight? I will survive Tonight I wander and I roam Just lookin for a way back home tonight Spare me... a ride, a ride tonight Spare me... a ride, a ride tonight (On this island I am stuck Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?) Tonight I wander and I roam Just lookin for a way back home tonight
