everything this man has ever done is exquisite. been listening to him since high school when I found a random single on a musoc tv channel in 2006. he keeps getting better
Same. I was listening to Modest Mouse, which was my favorite band at the time, then discovered Isaac Brock had his own label called Glacial Pace. There was a band on the record called Love As Laughter, their video for that song was done by Chad Vangaalen, so in the related videos was "Molten Light", fell in love ever since. It's funny how that works. I only found the one song by Love As Laughter through Modest Mouse, which led me to Chad. I don't even listen to Love As Laughter. It's like they were just a bridge from MM to Chad
Arguably the most underrated musician alive. Watch his interviews. He is exactly like you would hope him to be: humble, spiritual, compassionate, intriguing. He is operating on a whole other level, and I don't think commercial success matters so much as he has his loyal set of fans, and those people lucky enough to hear him play live. Some of his music will haunt you (Molten LIght), while other pieces will bring you tears (Willow Tree), and others simply rock out, balls-out "Flower Garden"
Still my favorite. I got to see Chad at a show in a bar in Washington DC back in the summer of 2011. I got super nervous and shy. Pft. Just asked for my shirt sizes instead. Haha he’s so great. I wanted a hug and a photo dang It!
Awesome song! If anyone's wondering about the chords, I -THINK- they are: Verse and Bridge: C Am G Am (I'm not sure about the second Am) Chorus: F C G C Last night I weighed my sin... F C G C Last night I weighed my... If I have stuff wrong please correct it!

This is real music and talent.. Not the manufactured garbage you hear on the radio. This is beautiful and soulful.
2020, still loving Chad Vangaalen.
My god this is so much better than the studio version
Agreed!
Yesssss
Best musician alive today, underrated.

You might like Radiohead and Neil Young.
I listen to this over and over and over. I love you Chad!
this tune is impossibly good... this has been one of my favorite videos for four years now, i keep coming back to it.
Haven't watched a music-oriented video more than this one. Damn, what a great little live performance. Chad is one of a kind.
I still come back to listen to such beautiful melody
still stopping by, my friend?
Surfer Blood
Yes
very well put. he's so committed to what he does, such a perfectionist. no to mention one of the most creative musicians alive.

This is the first song in ages to give me goosebumps; never heard it before. Just pure awesomeness.
A few months ago my girlfriend showed me chads music. Im eternaly grateful to her
Still my favorite. I got to see Chad at a show in a bar in Washington DC back in the summer of 2011. I got super nervous and shy. Pft. Just asked for my shirt sizes instead. Haha he’s so great. I wanted a hug and a photo dang It!
Fucking beautiful. Thats all I can say.
The beautiful harmonies are so lush here.
always come for more of stuff like this
Wow. This was recorded 10 years. Chad is a treasure.
Christ, Chad is honestly one of the best musicians out there today. I could listen to his stuff all day. Mad respect.
I found my way back hooooome.... so amazing
It doesn't get much better than that folks.
Best version !
such an amazing artist. Great sound
Backed here by Scott Munro, of Preoccupations/Viet Cong. Great musician too.
Definitely talented. He makes this performance.
I recall Chad praising his backing vocals.
Not a lot of people can keep up with Chad's notes.
It is new. It's on a record called The Green Corridor #2, which is a split LP with Xiu Xiu. Came out with zero fanfare.
Awesome song! If anyone's wondering about the chords, I -THINK- they are:
Verse and Bridge:
C Am G Am (I'm not sure about the second Am)
Chorus:
F C G C
Last night I weighed my sin...
F C G C
Last night I weighed my...
If I have stuff wrong please correct it!
I love you chad

Chad was sent from God.
