Esencia pura, larga vida…!

Hell yeah I mean sixty-year-old people definitely tore up in that generation tour they know the fundamental concepts of musical composition but nowadays people don't understand that they just download some template and rap about how they are child of a single welfare mother living on food stamps. I don't care about how you rap about having $20 bills and hoes

🤜🤛

Right? After several years of listening to this, I still can't get over how good this version is.

@@JackFou Same

yeah there on point hear...check out Charles Bradley Gary Clark Jr. or wangnhand really good

Surely you jest? These engineers, you feel, are “Masters”, i.e. par excellence, nonpareil? I’m not trying to be a shit head here, really, but I descended on the comments to vent about this very topic. Engineers par excellence is not the impression I’m left with. How would you account for the last 2 minutes of the song? This is a very solid -...... NAY! This is a FUCKING ICE COLD and at the same time BURNING HOT solo from TWoD’s lead vocalist - I was less familiar w/ his guitar work before seeing this and, despite the atrocious mixing, it is what convinced me that he may be one of the most underrated leads in this era of pop rock. BUT..... the mixing is downright awful! From 5:20 to the end (~ 7:00) the guitar comes thru weak and unreadable, I would expect a strong reprimand and to be removed from any high profile events for a least a year. And for 5:00 to 5:20, well, I would expect to be downright fired on the spot. Gone. And if I were in charge of that outfit, I would fire whoever was responsible for that mess. Once again, on the spot. Sounds a bit harsh, but damn it, We’re talking the lead singer’s fucking epic 2 min solo to close out a spirited rendition of one of their best records.... oh, and did I mention .......lt’s The War on Fucking Drugs! This is a major act, a major moment. You check, double check, test, then check again to BE SURE you’ll get it right..... My 2 cents, perhaps only worth $0.01, maybe y’all got a deal?! Anyway, thank you for reading my comment...

@@johnb1759 I agree that it's a shame that the guitar is so poorly audible during such a delicious solo. But considering that his guitar comes through pretty well for most of the song, I'm tempted to think the pedal he's stepping on at the beginning of that solo messed up the guitar level.

someone read the pitchfork review?

the bassist keepin that steady rhythm too

love me some Charlie Hall.... :))

Good job.also the others go smoothly with it.one off the greatest songs for me.

@@Austin-wh4yi what it says?

and far faster than you know, or can feel

Beautiful man, really beautiful.

nice

Guitar solos are barely ever cool and this one is SO COOL.

I want to play guitar again and learn this solo

Yes my man ! Next time I'm rolling this is definitely going on

+Daniel Taylor Yeah. Major goosebumps. Happens on several other tunes on the Lost In The Dream album.

+Daniel Taylor Goosebumps every freakin time during the solo for me as well

Now that is onpoint Mr Taylor

Absolutely agree, there's something utterly unexplainable that happens during that solo part. It stirs me emotionally.

Daniel Taylor you're sooooo right man

Hits right on the feels.

cheers for that

Hit the nail on the head with that one!

What a quote

thanks for this quote, bro

Such a rock solid drummer, I saw them live last year. Amazing!

@@EponymousOpus WHERE!>> ? Jellies

Not saying that I disagree but man, the bassist has a pretty good groove!

Yes, for some reason he always gets my attention!

@@johndoerock these guys blow me away.

Sounds a bit like the solo at the end of bodysnatchers

On a transam, hair on the wind, ripping down a highway.

Hard to imagine how much fun that would be. Goodonyou.

I can just imagine doing that back when my daughter was small; I am still dancing to this alone!

agree completely..and this is a stellar band

and the bass player is smooth sailing all the way, with or without a pick, the keyboardist is enclosing the entire song with its dreamsynth waves, loving the drummer that gives me goosebumps with his concentrated pleasure vibe in his eyes and arms... everyone is doing an incredible job for us to live this moment over and over again... thanks to KEXP, and this sensational band "War on Drugs"... that shoots quite addictionnal songs haha.

Most def

True

Absolutely.....

Not at all, one of the best musicians for sure though

Not sure on lyrics, sleaford mods might have the edge, but he must be the greatest active guitarist in the world. It’s like Mark Knopfler meets Springsteen. Under the pressure live is absolutely at the very pinnacle of rock and roll

Totally. 💪💙

A clap !!

So Dreamy

Nailed it.

I don't want this trip to end

exactly! I think the same way, is pure talent.

What makes it better than other solos? I usually think they are corny, but not this one.

Really hard to tell as we have ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-r8t6XJ3Xlh8.html as well

Same here one of the most epic guitar solos, major goosebumps

absoluteley agree on the guitar, is is epic

I wish this song was endless

Brooks Greene this guy knows. I always go the long way home when this one is playing.

And several years on this is still stunning and best music EVER.

would pay two small fortunes to witness such class

You can walk in off the street anytime

I feel you, bro!

Their best.

Agree

completely agree with you, this version is better

Totally doing air drums all the way through this, i even did the face

+WatermelonTanuki My wiener often feels strange....

WatermelonTanuki Maybe you need mental health care ??

leave him alone. He is happy and sexually self contenting

Le Fred who said its hipster shit ? Ill fucking kill them. This band are fucking unbelievable.

There’s a lot of indie hipster shit out there and honestly I listen to a lot of it but War on Drugs is something different ... transcends “indie hipster shit” by far and taps into something ineffable.

They’re just jealous! 😂

Haters gonna hate.

If anyone said that to me then I'd politely ask them to shit off

agrree 100%

Adam really really pours his soul into it

Elizabeth Alguard Like her man just rocked her world if you know what I mean

Cheryl is boss. Top girl.

Can't beat Cheril Waters

I could hear it...

It sounds more like he forgot to switch his distortion.

It wasn't silent, just he was significantly below everyone else levels wise. Was a great solo though.

Ima nas

Jon Hoefs ha ha !

Lmao I thought he looked familiar

he's throw that shit DOWN

Because most people are into shit music

FUCK MAN haha

David Rosenblatt -Best rock drummer alive,listen to that snare, I'm in my 70's heard them all,these guys are the real thing!!

you should look for a live version of "go your own way" by fleetwood mac... best drummer face there too

Adam and THAT Gibson, wow!!

He looks like that wierd dude from 'third rock from the sun'.

mine to brilliant

You mean chord change at 4'30" ? Totally getting it. Yes!

He’s better when he has facial hair tbh.
