My favorite parts are when he holds up the invisible magic stone way up high for everybody to see!
LOL!!!!!!!
My favorite moment when he strikes with an invisible whip.
I thought he was fondling invisible testicles lol
thats my josh
It's the pretending to be Led Zeppelin for me.
Is anyone else gonna comment on how perfect his teeth are
He’s.. so pretty. His teeth are genuinely mesmerizing.
Yeah they’re clearly veneers
@@faulsname8869 His teeth have always looked like that so i wouldn’t be so sure. He used to have a gap in them that he got fixed, otherwise they’re likely real.
Jake his twin brother (guitar player) and Sam has nice teeth too .. and I have seen pics of their sister, it runs in the Kiszka family hehe
He's beautiful ❤️
This comment section:
5% whining because they sound like Zeppelin
5% laughing at the whiners
90% calling him Frodo
CarpRunner does it strike you as a little odd that your only qualifier for someone whining is that their opinion differs from yours? I don’t know, seems like there’s some interesting implications there... 🤔
@@TheCrowHawk Get over it. We all know they sound like Zeppelin.
CarpRunner sounds like you’re the agro one 😂, I’m just talkin buddy
@@TheCrowHawk You think I'm being aggressive? My god. You're the one that replied on my comment. Now you whine because someone was rude to you on the internet. Get to your point.
CarpRunner 😂 agro is short for aggravated which you clearly are, which was my point in the first place. Chill bro we don’t all have to like lame zeppelin. In case you didn’t understand what I did there either, I was making fun of gvf. Oh and I think you need to look up the definition of whine because you use it far too loosely for someone who seems like they are very accustomed to it, which was also my original point that you clearly didn’t pick up on as well. 😁
Didn’t think i’d hear anyone make music like this again for a long long time.
never lose hope. music goes in cycles. music industry gets the most $$$ that way. make the old new again, rinse and repeat.
I know, people just don't really make rock like this anymore.. I love it so much..
EXACTLY! The new generation may have found their lifelong touring band.
A fun fact is they were so young when they started to become big, some of them ditched their prom dates to go on a us tour
@ted westhaven far from it
FYI the tiktok scene you’re looking for is not on this song. It’s in the other SNL performance song on TH-cam called “you’re the one “
You are the goat 😂😂😂
thanks sm
The hero we don’t deserve
THANK YOU KIND SIR
🐐
Frodo Van Baggins
I thought I was the only one 😂
Hobbit Plant.
Hahaha!!! Yes!!
Shire of Frodo?
Lmfao 💀
I’m here because of TikTok
facts
Hey so am I
That’s the only reason anyone is here. SNL is trash
Same !
Umm yeah. Me too.. And I'm convinced this never happened. I've switched timelines. There's no f'ing way I completely missed this entire band. I've hopped from one dimension into another, obvi.
I've been a fan of GVF since their first album. I am 75 years old. This takes me back to the late 60s and early 70s. I think of Josh as Bilbo Baggins taking me on a wonderful adventure.
Rock On
Wash the cups don’t chip the plates. That’s what Bilbo Bagins hates.
Me too. They're incredible.
75 years young, much respect my friend.. . This band takes me back as well... Hopefully my grandchildren or great-grandchildren will be appreciating this band..
🤘🤘🤘❤️❤️❤️
Listen to "Mount Silver" they are also new and sound like them.
2:13 the camera angle makes him look like he slapped the drum lmao perfect camera angle
Lol
it is called a cymbal, buy anyway :D

😂
They have a really good bassist !
Maximiliano Mallea it’s lost in the mix
Yeah, he holds it down for sure.
He’s just average lol
FUCK YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!! BAD ASS BASSIST ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👑👑👑☝️☝️☝️🎸🎸🎸🎤🎤🥁🥁🥁🎹🎹
Agreed. I feel like they're all really good at what they do
I saw this on a last of bad performances, had to see for myself. This was awesome. Then, you consider how damn young they are and, its out of the stratosphere.
Same here. They sound amazing. I’ve been a fan since their first album. But bad performance? No way.
Saw the same thing. Bad performance list? Wtf?
He's singing live with no autotune in that difficult studio. Big big Respect. That's a masterclass.
Not to mention he was super sick during
Singing without auto tune isn't an accomplishment
@@jeccdog7584 with that vocal range it definetly is
@@jeccdog7584 It is when you're singing at this caliber
@@davidwatson3456 he's a professional singer. Performing without autotune should be the standard
Tiktok is about to put this band into the stratosphere.
What's the name of the song from TikTok?
@@JM-zu2pd “you’re the one”
Bro??? It’s greta van fleet??
I picked up my ticket to their show on Thursday next week today.
@a s no, TikTok has gotten progressively better since being Musically.
His vocal range is absolutely stunning
Good lord
@@jariza2606 there is no denying it, yeah it may seem he's hyped up on 10 pounds of crack, but there's no denying that his vocal range is broad
It's like Geddy Lee and Robert Plant had a love child
@@nogginn99 so true...still love them
He has a falsetto technique, it's not that hard to sing that high. Having that tone is pretty damn hard tho.
People are hating on this?? This band could be a rock revival. I think they are amazing.
They’ve been around since 2017 and have two albums out already. They’ve kinda fallen off the train for rock revival already. The next Led Zeppelin will not sound like Led Zeppelin
This together with whatever is going on with that måneskin band could maybe bring back the rock. Oh god I hope so
Idk, they aren't that great
Dime a dozen cover band in costumes writing un-inspired knock off zeppelin tracks for people that get their rock music from FM radio stations. Rock never stopped and GVF will kill it from the mainstream even further.
Their look and sound seems a bit forced tbh. They're definitely talented but they're not the most original. Hopefully they can bloom into something unique within the next few years.
All I can say as a Great Van Fleet fan, anyone who thinks that this is a bad performance should stick with Justin Bieber 'cause he sounds like he would be about your speed. All us true fans of GVF will do just fine without you....
He’s a got a weird stage presence but I kinda like it
It's all Robert Plant
It seems kinda Freddy Mercury at least some of his moves.
A less enthusiastic Freddy Mercury
D Zxx He's still so young, he's probably still trying to find his style. He is only 23 , these guys have been going non stop since 2012. They were just playing local gigs then bam a major record deal came a calling and they've pretty much been pushing them to be Zepplenish if you will. Eventually they will find their own voice and sound completely, personally I love em can't get enough!!!!!! Hope they become Super successful!!!!!
@@geyserink please at least learn how to spell his name...
Mom: You don't have to go to school tommorow
Me: 2:20
HILARIOUS😂
Uzi That’s actually really funny
Awesome
I think you mean 3:05
Lmao!!!!
Not a fan, but I came here to see how "bad" this performance actually was. It was perfectly fine lol, wtf are people talking about?
People just want any excuse to hate
I think it was more about his look and odd stage presence than the performance. No one can deny they are great musicians, especially at their age. Huge talent.
The "bad" performance that they are talking about is that SNL positioned the speakers so that the singer couldn't really hear himself, that's why he looks a bit confused
@Victor Melloni now say that without crying
Yeah this song is awesome!
I can’t get enough of this group since I found out about them yesterday. I k ow I’m late to the party . But wow , there my new favourite
Same, found out about them today…
Be it 7 years ago or 2 minutes ago, Greta Van Fleet is here to stay
Just found these guys today and they slap so hard
how in the hell is this considered a bad performance? sure its a bit shaky but these guys are only just starting and landed a spot on snl, thats huge. looking forward to their next album!
I think they were nervous as hell. But amazing performance nonetheless
Who said it was?
@@AR-mu4zq Oh just dumb trolls. I know there is a girl on tiktok who's made a parody video making fun of josh on snl thats become viral for some reason 🙄
@@AR-mu4zq Me. They're dressed like Hobbits on vacation in Catalina doing Led Zeppelin karaoke for the tourists.
@@pixelcultmedia4252 haha!
My music taste has always been classic rock, and that’s the sound these guys are giving us. I’ve been waiting for a long ass time to find a new band with an old sound. And that’s GVF
They're not a new band and they've been around since the 70's. And laloopalooza
nobody:
the fly in my room: 3:12
p.s I love gvf so much 💓
Staarshine I just laughed out loud at this so hard alone in my room
One of my favourite parts
JAJJAJAKAJAKAJAJJAAKA
This comment cracked me upp!!! Well done
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAJ
I came here to check on the "terrible performance" Greta Van Fleet had on SNL, which "ruined" their image... and all I could see was a great performance by a great band. They are a bit nervous at first, which is absolutely normal, but they totally deliver. First time I'm listening to them and seeing the band, by the way. Great song and great performance. I guess people just don't understand music being played for real, with instruments, anymore...
Vocal performance was really not good though
@@anthonyinzerillo2804 I don't... see that, I'm sorry. One thing is disliking his vocal style; another thing is to evaluate his delivery. I don't see any mistakes or off-notes beyond the natural human (professional) variance. Sounds perfectly ok to me.
Me too. Glad I did... this is hot
They are obviously on drugs that’s why it’s a “terrible performance” you can tell by many of his mannerisms I’m pretty sure they all did a line of coke
Seriously!! They are the sh*t, the real deal!!! WTF? Been playing for 40 years and total respect!!
Why in the hell were people saying that this was a bad performance? This wasn't bad at all, 100% real instrument playing and singing. I recently saw them live in concert. What an amazing performance from start to finish!
That guitar was NOT plugged in
@@shawnwilliams2897 yes it was u idiot
@@shawnwilliams2897 it is though,
@@shawnwilliams2897 even if it wasn't there is a thing invented years ago called wireless chords 🤦🏾♂️😂😂😂
I mean, he delivered but you can tell he's nervous. Shaking leg, bags under his eyes indicating he didnt sleep the night before, his awkward and stiff stance. Dude was owned by his stage fright. Talented, but not exactly a performance thats going to reach deep in people. Def not the worst thing I've seen on SNL though
Here we go again. A band I’ve never heard of and now can’t get enough of!!!! Just amazing
10-4 Copy That..................
Who's the other ones?
Me too!! I’m making Black Smoke Rising my new ringtone, lol!! Love GVF!!
Yes. Yes!!! YES!!!!!
@@ryanosiecki8372 How about Follow For Now? Check them out.
Reasons I decided to check them out
-Heard them on the radio and said "wait is this Zepplin?"
-they're from Michigan like me
-singer reminds me of Robert Sheehan
-cool vibe/aesthetic
Hi from Grand Rapids (:
@@Sarah-py8bz hi! :)
That lead singer lookes like Pete Davidson ate Timothée Chalamet and shat out a person
Omg I love Robert Sheehan and I literally thought that when I first saw this!! Especially his role in Killing Bono. So glad someone else agrees!😆
i’ve seen them in concert twice and i cry every time. they’re so perfect live it’s unreal
When you want to wear a long Shirt AND a short Shirt to sing on SNL.
How on earth does he manage to hit that cymbal so far back at 2:13? That's some talent!
led zepli eat your heart out
Lol
😂😂😂😂 what a good point
Talent
Check out his mic trick at 3:12
Idk why they say the performance was one of snl's worst?🤷🏽♂️ maybe his voice cracks a little? Idk. But they are really good regardless.
Maybe they thought to watch a real Led Zeppelin copy. But no, Greta Van Fleet has a unique style.
Yeah, this is a good performance. I don't get it.
Not even a horrible performance. Anyone who thinks so doesn’t know how to evaluate musical performances.
One of Pete Davidson’s greatest performances 🤯
XDDDD OMFG THEY’RE ARE LIKE ONE PERSON, I SEE IT NOW TOO. weird I didn’t notice that earlier!
I have 2 classmates that look like Pete and now it looks like the lead singer 😂😂😂
@@austinlopezlabrada you’re welcome. 😭
He looks nothing like Pete Davidson lmao
😄 i totally think they look like they could be PD's younger siblings.
Pete Davidson killed it here!
Exactly I don’t appreciate that he manipulates his voice to sound exactly like Led Zeppelin and then they turn around in the Rolling Stones op ed and say they don’t like to be compared to the Led Zeppelin well then stop manipulating your voice to sound like them 🤣
I was knocked out on the first note! Bravo. If this is bad, I'd hate to hear good!
Love to hear good
Speaking for all gen x and xennials please let this style come back these guys are amazing
Long live rock n roll babyyyyyyy
The Boho look? It was kinda popular in the 90’s but I’m amazed by this talent. This guy is freaking amazing!
Of music, not clothing.
X-ennial is a term that died rather quickly, politely gfys and never ever try to associate gen X with the echo boomer generation millennial crybabies. Gen X grew up on Rush and Zeppelin, why would we not want this awesomeness.
@TheRoadhammer379 Gen x was born in 70's and early 80's. It was the boomers that had the best music. That is, when your old enough to decide what you like, have enough money to buy albums and concert tickets.
If you grew up in the 70’s loving bands like Rush, Yes and Led Zeppelin you can’t help but love these guys.
I also hear a bit of Blue Oyster Cult as well. In the instrumentals. Their music style is so damn good. I'm so glad to see that the 70s music is coming back full throttle with this band. 10/10.
I concur !
I hated rush, yes was ok when I was in HS, and I liked zeppelin ok. These guys? Dude can’t sing.
@@jmar5785- You obviously weren’t a stoner in the 70’s lol. He’s still super young so I think his voice will ripen over time, seems like he’s still trying to learn how to control it.
@@marty88ish I was stoned then and I’m stoned now man.
I know they'll never see this but Samuel is absolutely shredding that bass. He's spectacularly adept here. Just amazin. Haste ye back boys.
🍀🎸🍀
SEE THIS IS WHERE I LOVE THIS BAND!!!
they don’t care to look “sexy” or “attractive” when they are playing. TAKE JOSH FOR EXAMPLE; he is having FUN. to have the vocal range he has, you can’t always look attractive to achieve that sort of range. you can tell he is nervous of course, but he IS HAVING FUN WITH HIS JOB AND THATS WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THEM.
They DO look sexy tho!
They are legit 👍🏻 hope we have this band for years to come
Your right that smile and expression on his face at 3:26 says it all
What! They are sooooooo attractive 😛
@@BriMariexo i know i think so tooo! it’s more targeted towards ppl who think someone is a better artist if they look a certain way :) xxx
I saw this on snl and I had never heard of them before,
but this was absolutely fucking amazing.
Joseph Hernandez me as well I find them quite interesting
absolutely agree. this kid has something very very special, imo.
Where can i go to donate to your def organization?
Dam good band, I had a flashback to the early 70's, like shit man i know my draft card is coming. Funny but in 73 when I enlisted I had to go pickup my draft card I was #54..
hahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahwhatsoullesmugglessatancockguzzlingaoullesfreakshahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahv
The music industry being what it is today, it is nearly impossible for new bands to "make it", I say support new talent whenever possible. I find this band very talented!
Listen to my band "Mount Silver" they are also new and sound like the old 70s bands as well.
Omg sams wearing shoes!!!!!!!
Yes! but 2nd song looked his usual barefoot self, Lol
Helene Suss lol yeah 😆
AzizaX Blue / salvation army had a sale....
Max Otto Or New York... you know, where Sam actually was because SNL is in New York.
Think they're his mom's
I agree this band is awesome I've never heard of them either! How can people hate on this song it's great. Or the band?
this performance is actually great?? what's the hate about
Janis Joplin’s and Frodo’s secret love child
The singer had a hard time. Ive seen him perform better.
Muuuch better
Hailing from Michigan.
Very fond of this Band.
a person he souded much better when I watched it on TV
I saw them live two days ago and his vocals were out of this world, including for this song. He killed it, very single note was hit and strong and with no straining at all. If you ask me this performance (which I totally admit is way below their usual standard) is a cross between bad sound mixing and Josh being clearly sick with nerves, and it'd be hard not to be on such a huge show.
He looked very comfortable.... good job.
The criticism should go to sound engineer. Vocals are brought too forward in the mix. Live performances are " difficult " enough without presence of technical chops to match. Nice job lads ; technology team missed the mark.
Holy shit... if we had these guys at home, I would never leave The Shire!!!
Wow you're a comic genius you fucking idiot. Felt good typing that post?
@@sullyvanov bahahaha

@@sullyvanov Ok
This man looks like Frodo

wow Appearance is your takeaway
He looks like a Jewish mother of 5.
and you look like mj :) the goat
GREAT JOB BOYS... all these negative comments.... jeez..... would you all rather see Drake? Taylor Swift? Nicky Minaj? etc???? ...... thank you SNL for putting a rock band on your stage. LETS KEEP ROCK ALIVE... we all know it needs as much support as we can give it... As far as their clothing goes.. I'm pretty sure they have a "stylist" putting all that together
ALIAS band fan club there are so many better modern rock bands out there than these guys. Have King Gizzard on, they’re much better and actually have an original sound.
Do you just not listen to any modern rock or anything? It doesn't need "saving" by these jackasses, ripping off the legends. It's doing just fine. Loads of great heavy rock artists with big followings and fantastic, unique sounds. Oh Sees, King Gizzard, Swans, Iceage., Protomartyr. And thats the TIP of the iceberg man.
I'm not a fan of any of the people that you mentioned, but at least they have any charisma at all, which is absent in this GVF performance.
hell f that mumble bullshit
Boomers: Music is dead!
GVF: Hi!
Boomers: IMPOSTERS! MUST CRUCIFY THEM!!
Me: -_-
Derivative unoriginal. Appreciate that the play their own instruments - mistakes and all like rock should be. There are simply a lot of other newer rock bands far superior to these guys. They won the marketing battle though.
Not imposters …just not fresh.
@@jimmy5634 they are for me especially when you compare them to what we have today. Their music is impeccable, they write their own which is hardly ever heard of anymore. And they brought this music back. Also who the hell has pipes like him Josh in today's music? They're not pop, they're not auto tuned and their instruments are not computers. If that isn't a breath of fresh air I don't know what is.
@@flyingburritobro68 compared to what? I'm not gonna disagree to the fact that there are some great bands out there who deserve to be heard too but honestly they worked their ass's off for this and I am thankful to be alive to see great music return especially with pipes like his. Just so you know, most of them don't write their own music like GVF does and they have a higher turn over rate for band members. I say give them their platinum now.
This made it into the “dishonourable mentions” in a Watch Mojo video called “Top 10 Worst SNL Performances” and honestly I’m kind of offended
This performance was great tho so fuck mojo
TBH That's how I found this version, I really enjoy GvF so I was curious what was so bad......I can't figure it out, this version is unbelievably good.
I really like their performance. Made me a fan
Same here, Sara. I'm a huge Led Zeppelin fan going all the way back to 1996 when I first discovered them at a record store one day, but I've got to say these guys are a blatant ripoff of them but who cares? They sound great!
@@ericwoods6286 my dad says the same thing, and I agree! But I still really like their music and I do believe they are trying stray away from their Led Zeppelin sound!
Hey, I'm an old timer, from the Woodstock era..... but I love these guys. Ok, they sound a little like someone we know..... truly only vocally....... they are helping keep real rock alive, in today's forest of hip-hop and urban R&B trash. I am encouraged and entertained, and I will purchase their music.
Love it.
There's nothing wrong with hip hop and rnb music... Diversity is great accept all art forms... Some find solace thru the 6 string some do it over hip hop beats it's all good
Old people when there’s diversity in music: 😱😱😱😱🤬
RP gave them a big thumbs up in an interview I saw....
They sound like Led Zeppelin.
I just saw these guys in Nashville last Thursday and man have they evolved since this performance.
Everyone says zep, but I definitely hear some rush influence here too. I’d like to know who doesn’t like them, because, this is good music. No auto tune here. All raw talent
A rare sight sammy's wearing shoes 😯😂
wow I thought the same thing
I wondered who made him put shoes on, haha.
I thought they were just socks
I did too until he turns to the side and you can see the heel of the shows
he's barefoot for the second performance tho hahaha
The singer is standing equidistant between the vocal monitors and the drums. The stage crew should have put the vocal monitors right near his feet. Not only can he hardly hear himself, there'll be a significant delay between him singing and what he hears. That's enough interference to make the singer seem like he has no idea what he's doing. The guitar and the bass player have amps right behind them, and the drums are naturally loud. Only the singer gets no immediate feedback on how he is sounding. That's why he has that awkward questioning look on his face. Also, he probably looked in the mirror right before going on stage and wondering why he let himself be talked into that get-up.
I agree
Agreed completely. The nervosity flew at the second song. He regained his appearence!
It’s a tiny tiny stage. The acoustics are instant. His instincts are every bit as much to blame as the eq board or set up.
@@jabbadabba1978 As often said, the SNL stage is notoriously hard to play re: sound characteristics. Whatever else one might want to say about GVF, they are the hardest workin' band in show biz right now. They tour incessantly, and the kid is gradually getting his chops together after a prodigious start. Of course, if their next album sounds just like this one, then we'll know they have trouble in the songwriting department. But normally, they play very sharp, night after night, keep the crowds happy. There was a band in the mid 1980s called Kingdom Come that did the same Zep Thing, and never grew out of it. If you've never heard of them, that's why.
nirvana played SNL and kicked ass
Plot twist: They teleported from 1973 to 2017
Plot twist: they teleported from 2019 to 1969
dude it's 2019
Nah, they would have been laughed at in 1969, too.
@@gordon4385 tru
From Mordor 😂
why have i been sucked so far into this band that seeing josh and sam wearing shoes feels wrong
I don’t know why people say this was a bad performance, it was great imo.
I liked the performance, but i get why people are saying things like the mannerisms are weird
Because he moves weird
They have no stage presence, and the vocal performance is super weak and cringey
I couldn’t agree more. I just listened to it with headphones on, and the guitars and bass are absolute fire!
@@KendrickMegaFan I honestly prefer talent over stage presence, and these guys have a lot of talent.
Stoned my guy he’s so stoned lol 😂
They are always stoned lol
LOL I'm huge, huge fan of GVF and must admit they're kinda excentric, very funny specially Josh and Sam hehe ..highly cultured not only about music but literature , cinema too . they're not normal kids hehe
Probably not. This was a BIG gig for them
I don’t understand why this was put on that “bad SNL performances list”
I think this is freaking beautiful and very cool!🌹
I Am Tenderhearted Yeah his pitch is really nice and he’s unique. I’m feelin it
I thought they sounded fine, I don't the negative response.
Funny enough, it's how I discovered 'em
@@dreaem Me too. Lol
Check any other performance of this song and youll hear it.
Kudos to SNL for putting on a 1970s throwback Midwestern basement hard rock band to break up the nonstop one-and-done factory issued Lil Baby, Lil Yachty, Lil Uzi etc. Gotta throw a bone to flyover country every now and again.
Two years ago I saw this on SNL. First time I ever heard of GVF. So glad I did, can't get enough of em
Singer is like a young Jon Anderson from Yes. Rare voice. Awesome!
So good to see rock back on snl
Hooked! Love Zeppelin, the Doors, Queen, and Rush… Finally rock continues on! 🙌🏼 Refreshing. 🥰✨🎼
That was a great live performance. That is a challenging song to sing, and I think he does an excellent job. They really should have pushed up his voice in the mix. Some of his phrasing reminds me of Geddy Lee, and that is a good thing.
marc54678 that is true and people compare them to Led Zeppelin
Definitely reminds me of early Rush! Love it!
Yes!!! Not Zeppelin at all! It’s Rush for me as well!
Definitely hear Geddy Lee
I think this is one of the messier live versions of this song. He's still amazing of course, but he's not hitting the notes in quite a few places. They've done a few acoustic live versions of this song tho and they're amazing
Everyone is so negative.. They are super talented and their music is also very good. It's so nice to see that classic rock style is coming back.
Prairie Beath nah they’re fucking trash. the “classic rock” style is dead for a reason.
@@cadesturgeon2172 Can't tell if ur joking or not
@@mitchellcox1680 his comment is pretty self explanatory .
m m no i’m not joking. their style is so derivative they might as well be a cover band for a local dive bar.
Prairie Beath not negative just aware of phony bullshit
Sister, y'all gotta mix that sound board better.
The balance was definitely off.
@@spencerkieft6021 because that show usually has pop stars lip-syncing to backing tracks
3 speed Sting-Ray they prob never have that kind of volume coming off the stage
SNL always has crap for mix. Always.
@@ChitFromChinola right with you....have to cut them a break here. Have heard other live performances - and it has sounded much better
Wish they would go back to this attire. The jumpsuits are beautiful, but I love the hippy vibe! Love you guys! Your music is addicting! So unique and refreshing. God Bless you and keep you safe in your travels to bring us great music! Hoping to see you November 8,2022 in El Paso! My mom passed on that day in 2021 from Covid and it's my celebration of her life present to myself!!!!!
WatchMojo said this performance was embarrassingly bad. Bad enough to make it a honorable mention in their worst SNL performances video. Yeah, the vocals were a little shaky, but it wasn't actually that bad.
they never gave a explanation why too
Jacob Hughes they just did that cuz watchmojo hates rock
Honestly, most of it is SNL's bad setup. The vocals sound really dry and treble-heavy, indicative of a cheap mic and/or really bad board/mixing work. Even AC/DC sounded kinda bad on SNL, though their performance was actually really good.
AC/DC in 2000 on SNL with bad mixing: th-cam.com/video/cPIc2k6WgqI/w-d-xo.html
AC/DC in 2000 performing in Phoenix, AZ, from an FM Broadcast with decent mixing: th-cam.com/video/7aiMJbEmezc/w-d-xo.html
It makes quite the difference, really.
I find most artists sound bad on SNL but to me these guy sounded great
Jacob Hughes I think this is one of their best
I was in the audience for that show, it was awesome!
You have been reported for Lying and seeking attention
Lucky Duck
I want there.
Cap
It's true! I was a chair in that show!
57 years old and love these guys! Old souls for sure. The sound, clothes, hair, the whole thing!
I love that they attribute their knowledge and love for rock to their parents as well.
@@AlejandraGonzalez-nl1wj old school soul
Definitely inspired by Led Zeppelin
Who was the Talentless Dweeb who said the performance was Bad..... It's called LIVE ROCK MUSIC... STELLAR PERFORMANCE!
They are horrible in person, just another heavy rock back pretending to be like those before them...
The best band of the Shire ever.
Shire of Frodo
Good one hahaha
Those outfits, what the hell....got to be a bad stylist behind that mess.
@@tmanqz Realy? Thats your argument? At least make something decent before smashing the keyboard.
@@teovarga9527 really??
Funny how people can hate on this which is actually super talented, then turn around and worship Taylor swift or dua Lipa, or Lizzo lol. This is refreshing.
It’s mostly jealousy
I don't hate GVF but how is it refreshing? Zeppelin did this more than 50 years ago.
Ironically, every artist you listed is actually doing something more original with their work than Greta Van Fleet is
This shit is horrible lol
it was nice of the singers mom to lend him a shirt
LOL
His mannarism's are weird af.
Ian Johnson
It*
singer’s*
Funny !!
idc he still looks hot as fuck
I cannot look at the vocalist and not think of a hobbit lmao …
Man I wanna see watch mojo go up there on stage try and hit Josh’s high notes
Its not the most active performance but its definitely not as bad as they were making it out to be
I agree. Mojo set out to make Greta Van Fleets’s performance sound as if they totally bombed which they didn’t. The front man could have been a bit more active on stage but that’s about it imo.
@@milezero2221 totally agree, the only wrong thing in the performance was that they were nervous, and i actually got really surprised when i found out that Watch Mojo was saying it was bad, cuz I love this video
Yea but let’s not forget that Mojo’s video was about celebrities that ruined their reputations, which Greta Van Fleet absolutely DID NOT do. They also went on Jimmy Fallon’s show and rocked the house.
The reason I am here 😂😂 mojo couldn’t do this shit live on one of the most judgmental shows to play on
Does anyone else notice that he has perfect teeth?
So
Something about the way he sings and pronounces the words, it grabs you. He doesn’t have a technically perfect voice but one you would pay attention to. And yes they are all very attractive.
This is the greatest musical performance on Saturday night live period. Nothing even comes close.
i feel like once the singer gets more confidence and really goes crazy he'll be great. its all just too clean which makes the few mistakes seem bigger than they really are.
Sam and Jake are running around all wild and shiiiit and josh is just being a lil gnome
an adorable belting-it-out little gnome with a HUGE voice!
Lol
well, its like this...Josh is a bit restricted since raiding Kevin's clothes from The Wonder Years clothing dept. studio, Sam has to pee, and with Jakes bad back leaning backwards like that is the only thing that gives him relief.
I was thinking Frodo Baggins, but damn they rock
Has always done that that live. Look up any footage from the last 5+ years and you would see the stage presence hasn't changed.
Jake and Sammy have such a great stage presence
Wow i am sooo late these guys have been out here for a while now and im over here just starting to catch up ..they’re crazy good 🔥🔥🔥
It's amazing to see how passionate they are about music, they really look like music runs in their veins
Greay Van Fleet delivered... The only thing that was distracting was that Sam had shoes on
..lol
Robert Tefft Samwise Gamgee?
@@lukeGGlee I feel dumb asking, but what??
i thought exactly the same😂
Sam is almost every time barefoot on presentations...and on every situation lol
Dead ass I was thinking the same thing 😂😂 like they were amazing as always but as soon as the video started I was like is sam wearing...shoes??
Terrible performance? You kidding me. That's a tough stage to sound great. They did an awesome job. I became a fan because of their performance here.
absolutely hell yes. this performance was the first id ever heard of them. thought it was fantastic. still do.
I love this song so much I tried to learn the drums to play along with the song, 2 years later mastered the drums to well I get mad at myself if I mess up
idk what y’all are talking about, this performance was amazing. their stage presence is incredible
Yeah, but you can tell his voice was not in top shape, at this time, it was revealed he was suffering from pretty severe laryngitis, they had to cancel shows in Europe .
Yeah, the way he stands in one place and pretends to hold a giant god testicle was amazing.
Mom: Do you want me to bring home McDonalds?
Me: 2:20
That was a horrible crack.
@krvnjrcbs you mean taco bell
Hey, remember when these guys won the battle of the bands in School of Rock? Good days man...
This was just two years ago - are you all still listening? FANTASTIC. GREAT SOUND, this band is certainly one to follow and enjoy.
So much hate lol. I think they are great! I'm just happy a band sounds similar to Zeppelin and the guitarist can make some decent sounding riffs rather than songs consisting of power cords over and over. Looking forward to more from these guys.
People hate it because it shows lack of creativity and originality. Something people used to look forward to. There's no surprise. It's just a rehash of LZ sound and style. It's cringe and pretentious. They act like they are original but they're not.
@@meadow3387 very few people are original these days. To be fair most bands and singers sound like someone else. For me I really don't care, as long as it sounds good that's all I'm interested in.
Yeah, I like them too, and I’m a 61 year old Zeppelin fan. Wishing them well on their journey. Mix *was* pretty shifty tho
@@meadow3387 Personally, I think the singer sounds more like Rik Emmett from Triumph than Robert Plant.
@@meadow3387 lack of creativity? We can hear some of 70s rock here, but they songs are pretty much original. I just don't get these losers criticism
GVF is damn good, I careless if dates or not the 60s or 70s, is solid and Rock is in need of new blood. I like them very much.
The amount of irony in calling Greta Van Fleet "new blood" could kill a man
I’m 50 but I haven’t heard a band this good in so long!
Listen to "Mount Silver" they are also new and sound like the old 70s bands as well.
🤮
I saw them two summers ago in buffalo opening for metallica. They are freaking amazing.
I was listening to the recording of this on From The Fires and noticed that at the end of the song you can faintly here “that was it”. I thought that was pretty funny and wanted to share it with my fellow Greta Van Fleet fans. Peace homie! ✌️
Sodypops bouta go check it out thanks for the tip 👍👍👍
thought it was gonna be “that was it?” but im glad it was a “that was it!”
