The lead guitar is flawless. The bass is flawless. The dummer perfect. The keyboard buried in the heaven of this "Lazy Eye." I was at a gas station in North Texas last night, close to Oklahoma. A sour young punk was in there working. 2:00 AM. For the heck of it, I asked him if he'd ever heard of Silversun Pickup. He didn't smile but said, "Man, 'Lazy Eye' is perfect. I love that band."
No, thanks for trying to tell me what I meant, but I said it right the first time. Nothing about this rocks. Great song, one of my favorite bands, but not rock.
The emotions this song makes me feel are like nothing before. It's a mix of knowing true love, extreme loss(specifically the happiness you once felt and can't find again), and pain from any sort of abuse. All this leads together to form a soothing inner peace.
Same, for me it's the feeling of youth and moving on from the comfort of childhood and adolescence into "the real world." Just very powerful, bittersweet, reminds me of nostalgic times as a kid and also saudade. Longing for memories that never were
this song is way harder to play on acoustic than electric, i noticed he omits a lot of the slides and hammer-ons with actual note plucking, and at the speed he is playing that is amazing
@@StanleyKubick1 this song imo is not simple to play. Iv been playing for thirty years and I'm not the best or the worst...and this song is difficult to get all the small shit he puts in.
I know everyone will say this is the easiest song in the world to play..but I had a hard time learning it also and Im not the best or worst guitar player in the world, average, started playing when I was about thirteen and I'm forty now...not sure if it was the tempo or what but I found it challenging so your not alone if you had a hard time learning it also..
@@StanleyKubick1 everyone is different though, not everyone who plays guitar finds it easy...some people it comes natural and others have to put in a lot of work
@@delilasloan8914 the way it's played is very intuitive to anyone who can play power chords. i'm an intermediate player at best and I find it incredibly easy. Don't take my word for it, check out his own tutorial on playing it. It's called "91X Riffs Lazy Eye"
It's an easy to play song, until you add the fills and the singing and the tempo and all the other stuff. The fact he can sing and play it so well at such a speed with all the intricacies on an acoustic guitar with such energy is like dam
Why why why has this not cracked 1,000,000 views? I am 826,297. Brilliant... Sad. ... Beautiful.... My world is more complete with this song in it.... Thank you all for creating this piece of art.
Silversun Pickups are freaking awesome! I don't like a lot of music live because they don't sound the same but this group sounds better live and acoustically. I could listen to them over and over.
I listen to this everyday just to feel that rage and love and quietness all at once and it feels like the first time everytime it plays. Can't get enough!
I’ve been trying to learn this song on guitar for literally the last 10+ years and sing it at the same time. I can play the intro but I cannot play and sing as well as he does, with the passion he does. Hopefully one day
This song strips away everything ive tried to hide emotionally & throws it on the floor and stomps the hell out of it. And now I'm vulnerable & scared. I dont know if i should cry, scream, or just run away. Silversun pickups! What have you done to me?
It's unbelievable how hearing this today took me back to that exact moment when I first listened to it & I'm still awestruck. My heart is pounding my emotions are raw. Everything about it is sexy & new. ❤

Keee Reee ok boomer
Andy Gomez lmfao
Andy Gomez LMAO
I'm Queen of UK and this song is one of my favorites.
I'm 5 and I saw them live in 2010
ok so is no one going to acknowledge the drummer going hard? Props to that dude
+arebel43 I was thinking the whole time that the drummer was wishing he was in a rock band.
+Brady Nelson this is rock, I think you mean metal
No, thanks for trying to tell me what I meant, but I said it right the first time. Nothing about this rocks. Great song, one of my favorite bands, but not rock.
so what is it? pop?
its just damned good music
One of the best songs ever written.
? really?
I love how he sounds just as good live if not better.
+amanda hernandez totally right
KloWn694 lmfaoooo 😂😂😂😂😂
amanda hernandez is too cute
KloWn694 That's what dumb chicks do.
That's what happens when you don't edit your vocals for studio versions
The most underrated acoustic song in the history of mankind.
good but hardly the best.
Did they say best? The word was underrated..
yes!
Slapstick Lipstick Gaming the most underrated band ...far away they are in a new level ...but it is all about time...
The emotions this song makes me feel are like nothing before. It's a mix of knowing true love, extreme loss(specifically the happiness you once felt and can't find again), and pain from any sort of abuse. All this leads together to form a soothing inner peace.
honestly besides the abuse part it fits how i’m feeling
Same, for me it's the feeling of youth and moving on from the comfort of childhood and adolescence into "the real world." Just very powerful, bittersweet, reminds me of nostalgic times as a kid and also saudade. Longing for memories that never were
10 years later and this song still brings a tear to my eye...so powerful. Love it !
???
Agree. This live version is magnificent.
I wanna know...who the hell disliked this masterpiece. My gawd.
Douche bags disliked this video
People with a lazy eye.
Man, I had no idea how talented of a guitar player he was. His form is on point. Like a machine.
I always figured he had a lead guitarist.
this song is way harder to play on acoustic than electric, i noticed he omits a lot of the slides and hammer-ons with actual note plucking, and at the speed he is playing that is amazing
actually a pretty simple song to play, but your point is still valid
@@StanleyKubick1 this song imo is not simple to play. Iv been playing for thirty years and I'm not the best or the worst...and this song is difficult to get all the small shit he puts in.
Love the way he plays
He's quite talented. This is his song. Probably played it a thousands of times
REAL talent, REAL music
***** what the actual bloody fuck?
Second that. How in this fucking world did those comments relate?!
***** what does this song have to do with your mother making a buck????
I can't believe how brilliant the rythym is on this. From the guitar to the drummer. It's just tremendous
A tight band
this is some of the cleanest guitar playing I've ever seen, on a not so easy song to play.
It's incredibly easy to play, dude. He describes writing it as "basically falling over his guitar".
I know everyone will say this is the easiest song in the world to play..but I had a hard time learning it also and Im not the best or worst guitar player in the world, average, started playing when I was about thirteen and I'm forty now...not sure if it was the tempo or what but I found it challenging so your not alone if you had a hard time learning it also..

1:48 anyone who has tried to play this on guitar knows how much love and passion is needed to make it sound THIS GOOD.
OMG thats truth true
Facts, this is really hard do it good.
This makes me want to learn it to play more
Just amazing 🔥🔥🔥 fun fact i probably made this same comment 5yrs ago! Timeless greatness
The bass line is what hooked me with this song.
And all this time I thought the bassist was the vocalist...holy shit dude what a voice
You !! Sir... Are a very good guitarist !!
What a song !!
La importancia de MTV..nos hizo reconocer está y muchísimas más bandas excelentes..
This IS my favourite video of anything ever on TH-cam, and it has been for years. Love you Silversun Pickups.
What a beast of a performance. Voice is amazing and somehow it falls short of his guitar playing. Wow!
This song resides in that rarefied air, alone in the ozone. I love this song so much ! Hypnotic and perfect. Nikki is so damn impressive .
August 2024 "It feels so good to relate..." 🤘🤘🤘
This is one of my all time favorite songs. It's a masterpiece. I feel it in every ounce of my soul.
Me too...this is my favorite version of this song.
This has got to be hands down THE best version the Pickuos have ever done of this amazing tune! Wow
ugh...such a feel good song!
Olivia Galante feeling it 2020
I LOVE SEEING BOTH THEIR LEGS TAPPING TOGETHER AT 2:37
They are counting the metronome together.
@@hazrel no in ears until proven otherwise
A fantastic song & this is the best performance of it ever. Thank you Silversun Pickups. We love you & you're beautiful music.

I listen to this everyday just to feel that rage and love and quietness all at once and it feels like the first time everytime it plays.
Can't get enough!
I love the raw energy
the best music i've heard in awhile... a long while.
Definitely one of my favorite songs
Favorite band of mine. Much props to them. They got me listening to alternative and indie music. Mad drummer! Lol.
Love this performance so much. Thank you!!!!
Love the cute video with the young kids in the youth club listening to this song.
Drummer's a beast... check out other videos for this band. He's a machine.
This is so tremendous. The best America has to show for music today is "Lazy Eye" by Silversun Pickup.
I remember I would wake up early in the morning before school started every morning and hoped this song would come on MTV. Ahhhhh the memories!
LOST AND LOAAADED
goosebumps
What a flucking performance! I mean how many times does a live version of something you've heard a thousand times bring you more!?
Forever vibing to this , that drummer is what motivates me to get throw the night shift lol
Seen this great band 3 times now, what a thrill, love them
Wow this is honestly the best live performance I've ever seen them do. Insanely good.
That was AMAZING…..🤩
Rellllllllllllllllllllate!
His voice is incredible
Fucking fantastic live performance!
Those dynamics are crazy good.
Savage shreds, hard beats, wicked flow,beast vocals and sweet harmonies
See them every time they come around.
Luv the Sun
what a voice man, AND he can play like a beast too! such talent
Unique voice , and awesome performance! almost a helium / chorus like vox effect vocal hmm.... Anyhow this song rocks!
This is still my favorite song of all time, acoustic or otherwise.
I always come back to listen to this song one last time..
his voice is the bomb.com.... guitar, bass, drums, keys...magnifique!
This song really makes my life feel better
This song was with me for my sober days under probation. Sober living and all the classes and session that come with being a lone traveler in America.
Great song! Excellent acoustic version performance, I love it as Panic Switch too!!!
🤯 13 años después me sigue volando la cabeza!!! 🤩
They're so good and such nice people too!
This is one of the most innovative and amazing songs. It is real.
His voice. It's like velvet pancakes... lol
ok

It's the room, the sun, and the sky
I’ve been trying to learn this song on guitar for literally the last 10+ years and sing it at the same time. I can play the intro but I cannot play and sing as well as he does, with the passion he does. Hopefully one day
I’ll subscribe if you learn and post it
Wow It's now 10 years since this song came out. Time flies. I'm hoping for more songs like this in 2016.... Hopefully :)
💯 best version of this song. I love 💕 it.
Bloody hell. Impeccable. :-)
I've been waiting, waiting for this moment all my life
I saw these guys live a long time ago. They were great!
Reminds me of alternative rock from the glorious early 90's !
This dude is sick!
TURN UP! Im about to be the 300,00th view!! Great stuff guys!
Bringing back them high school days! Class of 08
Class of 07 here, those were the good old days haha
They kicked ass here
Hahahaha their legs in sync! (Y)
One of my favorite bands of all time. just GREAT!
A truly awesome performance...thx!
way to much talent for you man its unreal
Oh Hell YEAH!!! I have always liked tf out of this song but hearing it like this is a REAL fucking treat 🤘
Thankyou
this was so awesome :'D
This song strips away everything ive tried to hide emotionally & throws it on the floor and stomps the hell out of it. And now I'm vulnerable & scared. I dont know if i should cry, scream, or just run away. Silversun pickups! What have you done to me?
Love the drum's hair!!!!
I want whatever the drummer is on.
Adam Cooke that would be music
he's just in it, man. music might be the best drug there is.
I’m gay and y’all the gayest thing ive ever seen omg ... keep it though
A stool?

Awesome set! This song never gets old. . .
