@JakeAllen3 seen him a few times since this post, and no, he doesn't play modern lovers songs as far as I remember. Maybe one snuck in that i missed but i dont think so. imo he has aged like fine wine anyway.
@JakeAllen3 I don't either tbh I just see him live every chance I get and I've watched every video of him performing. It's just about his stage presence and the joy he brings. It's just him and a nylon guitar. He usually has Tommy on some simple percussion instruments, not even a full kit.
I agree! I saw him at a little club in Melbourne, errr somewhat unimaginatively called “The Club” Australia and it was such a fun night. Weirdly enough I was just randomly thinking about his Bus song this arvo and it popped up on my TH-cam feed which sent me down this rabbit hole and also confirmed my suspicions that it only does my iPad listen to me but it’s also possibly reading my mind… 😮
My pleasure, Lee. Not only do you get a great song, but Jonathan's barb's at the host are very entertaining, too. Thanks for your note of appreciation!
This reminds me of my younger days going to see some unique bands/artists. I first heard his music because of Joan Jett's cover album, which covered Roadrunner. LONG ago, one of the first CDs I bought, as memory serves.
Conan handpicked a large majority of the musical guests that would appear in the early days. I loved when he'd actually interview them. The Breeders interview is legendary.
I saw Jonathan around 25 years ago at a Club In Vancouver, BC called the Railway Club. I really liked his irreverent style of writing. As a musician, I can hear a lot of his style in the Bare Naked Ladies, who IMHO I think are just inferior copycats.
Lol what is this? Woke? In 1994? Also whats woke of making a song about he likes women who say what they mean? Have you even listened to his discography he has always made songs like this, or do you only listen to the first album which he disavows with songs like “she cracked”
Jonathan is the gentle heart of punk IMO
So fuckin true!!!!
The ULTIMATE rebel !
Saw him live last night. Such a delight. Every person should go see him live. I've never seen so many happy people in a room with music!
Did he perform any of the modern lovers?

@@yummyjackalmeat dang, I may go see him soon in Nashville. I am not very familiar with his material outside of his hits & modern lovers

How could you not love Jonathan
He has this kind of energy...
Just love the way he leans over to the fake microphone on each one.
he's facial expressions are just great hah
This is fucking hilarious. he's just roasting Conan. So good.
LEGENDARY
Two of my greatest loves together
Once saw him refusing the pa at the 930 in dc. Said he didn’t want to hurt infants ears..played all the big ones but no amps…
"Conan the Carcarian" is what got me. Laughing so hard. I understood what he meant immediately, though it took Conan a moment lol
Thanks for putting this up!

GLORIOUS!!!!!
Love it. Ohhh if I could go back to 1994
They should bring Jonathan back to cohost to be honest
Conan had all the great musical guests!

Heck yeah

Very cool thanks
Dude was way before his time he woulda ruled the 20s young

@@LoFyeMusic boooooooooooooooooooooooo

That was SO 1990's!
Jojo and Coco. what more could you ask for?
Lol!
For Chris 4:45
Ye-yeah, got any good knock knock jokes
Two random surfer dudes, Montel Williams and Jonathan Richman all hanging out on a couch.
Guitar ,one more time- hootenanny with JR
That guitar... fuck... fuck... fuck...
he reminds me of owen wilson
So fucking funny
lmao conans a rookie here, and i love how hes just like "lemme see this thing" at his guitar....
I think he is kinda saying he's sick of being delightful and charming all the time...
Hand over the remote Johnathan!
He sounds like Sylvester Stallone.
One Man's Chorus ADRIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What make/model guitar is he playing?? To anyone who might know
That's a Harmony, not sure what model, they were inexpensive guitars that you could order from the Sears catalog, they're collector's items now
@@Semiautodidact Actually branded Silvertone, not sure what model but could have been made by Harmony or maybe Kay
Conan the bad comedian, hahahaha so funny
He really doesn't like the host trying to interrupt him though. Jonathan seems like a nice guy, but I feel like he has some motive against tv hosts.
neotatos mpravo
Guitar
He’s right, Conan does talk too much. Can’t stop interrupting Jonathon’s flow.
Use to like Richman, but he became such a WOKE doormat. What a crap tune. Sounds like he is making it up on the spot.

@@kelechi_77 This 100%. The time when this dude liked him was the time when he didn't actually listen to him.
