Every time the breakdown happens and he drops and pops and locks I cry
I CANT FIND WHERE HE DOES IT SOMEONE HELP
@@metalyuncle3106 yo it’s been 2 years. I haven’t seen this video and I’m at work so I can’t watch. I’m probably referring to his spastic movements before he drops to his knees and pops up maybe?
do you cry about how badly you miss the point or
@@IrvSauce what do you mean?😂

Wasn't really into this song for a long time, but then I saw him live and he opened with it. Was quite amazing and it just resonated with the current climate. Now I can't get enough of it.
osufan871 for me it was the animated official video. Seems pretty damned relevant at this point.
And the “two wildly different perspectives” video. And the SNL performance after the election where he went apeshit on acid, looked like he was near tears at the “each other’s all we got” line.
5:11 give me chills every time. He is such a talented well rounded artist. Writes amazing, incredible voice and what a performer.
You can say that again. I’m not even sure the average person gets what an incredible artist and performer he is.
The sound engineers at ACL always deliver beautiful sound mixes, GODDAMN!
Now this is a fucking performance. good shit
Ive watched this at least 10 times tonight. I just can't stop. Ive always loved this song, but giving our current situation, I'm starting to believe that this is an anthem.
Each other is all we've got
Amazing range, great voice! Quirky sense of dark and honest humour. Incredible musical back-up.
Hands down the best song of 2017. Thank you for posting this ACL! Love you folks!
Best new artist to come out of the 2010's imo
all the comments about how this "resonates with our current situation" make me even more sad for the world. this song was relevant for thousands of years before it was written.
Omg I love him.
This song is an anthropological treatise throughout mankind history, shaped like poetry and endowed with sophisticated humour. Said that, genius!
my god this is good.
Genius.
He’s so underrated. He’s basically a modern frank sinatra
No one does what he does..Very unique and advanced...like Randy Newman 3.0...half comedy,half eloquent social satire...what an interesting musical sense.
Wow!
O álbum mais pertinente deste tempo
Incrivel como a estrofe do "Their languages just serve to confuse them..." se relaciona tanto com o nosso momento politico e religioso especificamente aqui no Brasil
Bad, bad boy.

I think Christopher Hitchens would've liked this song.
why does this give me TedTalk vibes
Randy Newman's and Jackson Browne's love child.
Nah, those guys had better lyrics. Newman's use of irony and humor for social commentary is unmatched. FJM's lyrics fall flat to me, like he wrote them in under an hour while smoking his roommate's weed.
P. Wells I disagree but I think your comment is funny
@@PWells-do4kl me when im jelly
I got evicted at the end of this month the video was uploaded and then I lived in a house and I got evicted from there just a year later now I’m in this trailer here
Damn. Where you living now?
Beautiful ..but I wish he would write a song with some Higher Consciousness :)
I bet Nick Cave is jealous of the High Priest.
Elton john? Very similar vocals
Father ? By what right ?
gottem
Divine Providence
He didn't rape any little kid, so I don't understand either
He's our papa john crispy
Someone doesn't get the irony
Imagine if he attacked the religion of peace instead.
Michael Anderson the libtards would be furious!
Michael Anderson
Awww somebody's triggered.
"Their religions are the best" Notice how it's plural
There's an offshoot punk band in Bushwick called *Bedouin Mind Rapists* that covers all that explicitly.
Will Waller - THIS. There is no need to make any distinction between all the bullshit mysticism. Its all just different names for the same thing: manufacturing phony distinctions between us and them. Only difference is what dumb hat you wear.
oh I don't think this sounds anything like a Bob Dylan song.... believe me......
This song's lyrical content is utterly wrong seeing as it relies upon metaphysical philosophic inquiry.
Were the lyrics written from the perspective of a 16-year-old rich suburban kid who's angry at his parents because they are making him go to Wednesday night church group? It just comes off as lazy irony...yeah, ok, people with beliefs that are different than mine are ruining my fun...I wish FJM would move to the deep end of the pool for at least one song. At least the music and vocals are good.
P. Wells This documentary is lost on you
Cretin
listen to two wildly different perspectives it's literally from the same album lol
Important to remember that this is in fact a song and not a speech or an essay. The words are all there to complement the music first and foremost.
I'm embarrassed for him... if he thinks... And you know he does.... he's a Bob Dylan...... he's not... ugh
he doesn't. And you must know nothin about music if you think this sounds like a bob dylan song.
This is better than Bob Dylan. Take off those nostalgia goggles
hahahaha...what? If you think that his muse you are so far off base... you honestly do not get that he is in on the joke?
I'm embarressed for you....if you think...and you know you do... that you are the voice of reason....you're not....ugh. Where is your authority on this? Pure fucking comedy!
his affectations are ridiculous.... and he seems to try to cram as many words ..... way too many.. into every single sentence... every song sounds the same... every single one.... he has no voice and less talent.... he's a no talent that will be a never was..... very soon....
Bob Jolly God appreciates you sticking up for him
Write me a piano progression that complex and beautiful with even half as much to say and get back to us on that, to call him talentless alone ruins any validity to your opinion. I’d like to see you produce three albums...
Very soon yet, Bob Jolly?
so many words, the best words, Stable genius in action. Watch and learn.
Wow!
