The Tallest Man On Earth - King of Spain (Live on KEXP) 

finding a new artist is great but finding out they have a kexp session is even better. always a happy surprise.

one of the best performances of one of the best songs written.

This guys voice is so raw and emotional, I love it. The guitar sounds beautiful too.

I love how he plays the electric like an acoustic!

Love is all I feel for this man!

In love with this guitars sound

i love how he shows a bit of anger on stage... it a nice change of pace.

That was awesome i loved your comment! Just recently bought his albums on vinyl and can not stop listening to them!

these uploads made my morning the greatest

he's amazing..can't stop replaying!!

i am in LOVE with that guitar!!!

Great performance as usual

gracias por esta maravilla desde Madrid. :)

That fucking guitar is beautiful.

So good!

i never knew i was a loveeeeeeeeeeer!!!

FINALLY, coming to Sweden in Feb, tickets already bought! A musical marvel!

I'm tragically in love with him

sooooo daamn amazing

great artist

Well this song is in CGCGCE, Love is all is in EADGBD, Where do my bluebirds fly is in DGDGA#D and The dreamer is in standard. He likes to change things up.

if i was the "king of Spain" would make "the gardener" figure out "where do my bluebirds fly" before i take "a lions heart" and thow it "into the stream". after that i would " steal tomorrow" and "walk the line" "over the hill" before i dig my self a "shallow grave". I love tallest man of earth

he drives me crazy, i think he's a genius

underbar man, underbar musik, underbara sverige!

@Soulrivers THANK YOU THANK YOU.

This is stupidly good.

I didn't know blind people commented on sunsets playingthebluesking commented 1 year ago still a lovely video! i really liked it =) ogh, and the sunset and your glasses just make the rest!

Such a romantic vision of Spain, bro...

Would love a live cd.

That guitar

i like this guy and that is all

There were 2 live versions of this song on RU-vid. I trust KEXP with my valuable time.

such a shame this doesn't have more views

makes me want to be the king of spain...

Great to very last strum ...

1:44 is epic. Look at how into it he is.

a bad ass one.

Fun fact! His shirt says Leksand, Dalarna, Leksand is a small town located only 40km from my hometown in the municipality of Dalarna in Sweden!

Uploaded on my birthday :]

@aaaaaaaaaaarg Cheers!

2:43 'Boots of Spanish Leather' = Bob Dylan or this guys biggest influence. Love this song and the albums I have heard.

can't believe this has less than 2000 views. :(

@dvzqz87 my thoughts entirely. such a great sound.

this is the king of spain, and I approve.

im soooo jealous of his guitar sound *_*

They don't make shit like this anymore man

We will make you our king if you want :)

Leksand

that is THE guy

Does anyone know if he plays all his songs in open tuning? Or have I just clicked the ones where he does

Geeeenius

does anyone know what type of guitar that is???

If your read that i love you

@Vygotskyband so sick!!!

Now I got a guy saying that's thee original ticket as he is stalking something ... The concept was tickets and claim shells. When dropping off a dump as an mechanical position of duty, it's either a turd that is like a ticket or a turd that is like a clamshell .... If it's a ticket, thee official duty is to place on small 50's style ticket on a tiny shelf ...

@theskul96 Well, if I was the king of Spain, I'd probably fetch the sparrow and the medicine, spread all my pistol dreams, about how love is all, together with the dreamer so I won't be his burden of tomorrow, but now you're going back with this wind, and it will follow the rain to my hoeny that won't let me in because, I left my heart t o the wild hunt a-commin' - and I won't be found. I share your love.

@meddeyc Marcus Mumford sings like him.

Reminds me of Paolo Nutini

Looks like Colin Firth and sings like Marcus Mumford. Oh yeah and he's fucking awesome.

@siamesesisterMUSIC How would they've reached the dislike button than? Pretty fly for a blind guy.

That would be a Gretsch G100CE!

The day before mine. Haha

rough camera work but it was shot on decent equipment

tallest man on earth is making me fail my school

@IndieFaggitt LOLOL, so glad they can't see your comment.

What Gretsch guitarr is that?

@theskul96 best comment ever^

Not just the blind.

why?

He would play a Gretsch

@michelleandcarolina gretsch g100ce :)

Wait a minute, this isn't Moxy Fruvous

jesus... no folks thats talent

und saucool ist der typ an sich eh schon...weiss einer weoher der kommt?

The greates Swede since Henrik Larsson!

@theskul96 I'm a huge Tallest Man fan... but that literally made NO sense. lol

I wish he didn't keep trailing off at the end of his end of his lines, but nonetheless, he's freaking fantastic.

No this is porn for the soul.

Don't sing that in Spain nowadays or you may go to prison and we don't want to miss your amazing talent!!!!

Three people just dont like his voice and acoustic songs.

you know hes swedish right

Helen Keller created 3 accounts to dislike this video.

I was about to say ,sex poetry' but I see I'm not the first one. Though always more feeling than eros *sigh*

i'd rather beat the king of spain

why can i not downvote you? LOL

I'm blind and I am very offended by this comment.

This is dirtier than...wait this isn't Dub-Step? :|

Trying too hard.

Joey cook from American idol did a cover of this sounds alot better.
