@@JohnJohnson-mo4bn Hardly. This is literally one of the most basic minor key chord progressions there is. The vocal melody is a little similar at times but not nearly enough to call it plagiarism.
@@JohnJohnson-mo4bn it does sound like it in the first couple lines. But not enough to match up for plagiarism. It sounds Tex Mex like a lot bands...Paladins, Billy Bacon, Los Lobos..
Amazing to see how time has passed. When this song came out I was 10 years old, and I remember that I loved rock and bands like Pearl Jam, The Verbe, Soundgarden, Marilyn Manson, among others. Now I am 31 years old, I still love rock and I still love this song. Now I have a 9 year old daughter who enjoys the same music as me, and who will continue with the legacy of the old and new classic rock with her children. I remember that time with happiness. Greetings to all!
Todo TODO TODO DE ESTÁ CANCIÓN ESTA BIEN HECHO , la voz la Lírica , la batería la guitarra , el bajo , la Línea vocal , los arreglos , la segunda voz TODO !!
@@ZR1Terror there are underrated bands and overrated bands and I had no intention to throw shade at Fastball as they are one of my favorite bands and I was only pointing out they don’t get the recognition they deserve
I hear this in 2021 and make me so happy and relax because the sound , and progression of this song is so Classic blues rock and ... I don't have words , i Really like this sound
In the last couple weeks I've been playing this song a lot. I've probably heard five or six different versions of this from the band. A great song doesn't need all the production to be a great song, and this is definitely a great arrangement and performance.
I'm so glad that he was inspired to write this song in his younger years. Cuz even though this version is beautiful, it doesn't hit the same as the vibrant, upbeat original.
Gretsch Renown 57 4 piece drum set in motor city blue with the factory "Gretsch" branded bass drum head. The unused fifth drum can be seen glowing bright blue in some shots of the video, way off to the left side of the screen in the wide shots and over Tony's right shoulder in some closeup shots of him. I own that same drum set. The snare cracking away sounds great in this video, and that's about the only thing from that drumset you can hear. In the original video of this song the drummer plays with exaggerated dancy body movements that he got either from Gene Krupa or the drummer from "The Ventures." In this video he has abandoned that schtick.
Same could be said for most any band. Put 83 takes, $500k of equipment, a producer, an engineer, 6 computers, a vocal coach, 200 punch ins, 72 tracks, and a few suits and anyone is going to sound better. But they sound great in this video made 20 years later when they are no longer at their youthful peak, so your comment is garbage.
Well you guys are older but your drummer is a youngster!! But he'll catch up to you and all of us who enjoyed your music years ago! One thing you showed everyone in this video and that is you are still Excellent musicians and your fingers are nimble! Plus you still have great voices too! I relate to this song so much because I prayed to our Heavenly Father, the Great and Holy Spirit, Jehovah/Yahweh, in early March of 2003 and I asked Him to please show me the religion that was ' Real and True ' and He did. He showed me that Satan gave the world Religions and He showed me that Jesus left behind One Congregation, whose members called themselves ' The Way " He showed me that The Way is only mentioned in One book of that Bible, the book of Acts 9: 1-5 It covers when Saul (later he would be known as the Apostle Paul) was traveling with his soldiers on the way to Damascus to round up any men and women he found there, and bind them, arrest them and take them to Jerusalem and throw them in prison. On the way there he was suddenly blinded by a light as bright as the sun. It caused him to stumble and fall. As he lay there wondering what just happened he heard a Voice from heaven say: " Saul, Saul,' why are You persecuting me? He replied; ' Who are You Lord? " The Voice replied: " I am Jesus, whom You are persecuting! " Can you see it friends? When Saul, was persecuting the men and women who belonged to The Way, he was persecuting the body of Jesus! In the body of Jesus there are no Jews, no Gentiles, there are no Males and no Females. Galatians 3: 27, 28. If you would like to know more about our congregation called The Way is Truth, ask to become a member and I will bring you in where you can scroll way down and learn much more about us..or send me a friend request to Cheryl A. Allen with two trees for my picture.
Who cares that we're old now? This is a song about two 80-something year olds, it just gets more and more relatable!
You do know the music was Plagiarized from a 50's song...Go listen for yourself.."Besume Mucho".

I needed to hear a piano bar version of one of my favorite songs. And here we are.
This performance deserved millions of views.
and half that many listens.
Holy crap, I am old now... this video confirmed it
Your as young as you feel Retro, by the way, your name tells us you're old too ;-) God bless us all lmao.
What a great song. Can you image busting this hit out for your kids? Number 1 for 4 weeks! What a band and an accomplishment! Long Live Fastball!

Rafael Flores You old bitch.
If you're 31, you are far from old. I WISH I were 31 again. It's when you hit 40 - it's down hill from there.
Dude i have the same memories of summertime when this song came out. BBQ by the pool with this song brings me back to 1999
I see these guys every time they come to Chicago ever since 1998
@@usfanlovesjiwoo1978 I'm going to be 40 in about 3 months that's good to know LOL

Muy bien dicho hermano y hay que seguir apoyando.
Even became a hit in the Netherlands. Loved it then and still do.
Great tone on that guitar! Love it.
I've seen him playing this on guitar and now on piano. What a talented bunch, I'm loving' it.
この曲が流れた当時、日本の名古屋でのライブに行きました！最高でした。
また日本に来られることを熱望します。
His voice didn't change at all. 😁
what a treat! I've only known Fastball thru the original video of this song. Now, I see another dimension. It was FUN!!
Rip lela and Raymond Howard -the true story behind this song
A highly underrated band
You’re underrating them yourself with that comment.

I love this song. What a great band.
Great song Great band Great story, a message for everyone how wants to understand life and how it plays out.
Wow these guys are good. I knew I wanted to have a band because of this song and this band. Ohh the memories :) I was 10 when I first heard it! Whoa!
I hear this in 2021 and make me so happy and relax because the sound , and progression of this song is so Classic blues rock and ... I don't have words , i Really like this sound
Thank You for creating this song! Gave me a lot of mood changing awesomeness!

Another fantastic recording.. I don't think I've seen a lesser version of this song. Even after all these years they are still on point.
This performance is outstanding!
And I did not understand my dad when he said that good music was the old music, now I understand
then our eyes were opened and the journey is beginning
They are so old ... , so im old too ...
🙋♂️
Old is GOOD in this case
But they still sound good. That's all that matters.
Age is just a number! 😎😎
Immortally great song... Beautifully redone.
Lo escucho y siempre me gusta este tema... Me dejo impactado por su contenido de la letra 😌🎶🎶☝🏻💯

Kinda harsh but hilarious. 😂
Or the live band at a bull and oyster roast.
I love these guys
They got old and grey. Haha I love Fastball!
Awesome song. I hope we all have a song written about our old crazy asses and how we died chillin
You just wrote your own, nice work. Put it in an envelope and send it to yourself.
Mr Scalzo and Mr Zuniga !! Great Combo !

How can I like this video more than once?
It may or may not be the best song of all time, but it belongs on the ballot.
Excellence people. This is it.
Excelente!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Awesome performance! No nostalgia necessary. This is just a great fucking song!
I didn't know that Eric Clapton was singing this song! Hahaha!!!

Never been a great band live, definitely had some good studio people to make them sound good

Yes I suppose I could be a grandparent too 😂
This is my favourite Eric Clapton song
and you are my favorite vegetable.
❤️
This was only 21 years ago ! Fastball aged too fast !
Everyone does. 21 years is a long time. 30 to 51 in that time - boom your old. lol
23 years ago this song came out.
@@usfanlovesjiwoo1978 the drummer is already in his 60s
Think about 1999 saw them perform live at Sunrise Records in Toronto Ontario Canada to promote their CD..still have it and a signed poster
until now ... i am not sure if the most people got, what this song is all about!? o_O *suggest
Conchiglia Adorata... hai trovato proprio uno spiantato...
who ' s the ghost bassist
Tune reminds me of "Delilah"(1968)-Tom Jones
Is it just me or did one of the members go full Ben Folds Five?
Is the drummer the original?

Is "The Way" a tango? Yes, a naive question, but....
