This was performed at my daughter’s memorial service. She loved WSP and went to every show possible, especially Red Rocks. She was a wonderful young lady and I miss what could have been. Meredith Adams lives on.
The entire WSP community sends you our love and sincerest condolences for your loss. Just know that she was surrounded by a loving bunch of similarly minded people.
Watching tornado warnings about an hour away on the tv and crying listening to this song because it touches deep. For some reason it always comforts me. May the spirit of Meredith Adam’s live on. My condolences P Adam’s.
My friend and brother, Jeremiah was a big time fan of Wide Spread Panic. He died on December 30, 2015...the day before this video was posted. I preached his memorial service today. This is the song i opened with.
+A-One what a beautiful way to pay tribute to your brother Jeremiah. Deepest sympathies to you. May he shine down on you through the music he loved so much.
First show.....May 24, '92 Ziggy's Winston-Salem NC......Only matured and aged gracefully as 33 year Single Malt. August '02 broke my heart. GMac filled an impossible void. Jimmy Saved the Ship from an uncertain course. Providing inspiration and new sparks.
Dear P. My heart is with you. I lost my dear son, Will Mullins, age 23, in March 2020. He was a beautiful soul who loved WSP and all his WSP friends. His service was resplendent with WSP music and a playlist created by his best friends/brothers. The service was recorded and sent to friends as far away as Brazil, France and Japan. Their reaction, I love the WSP religion/spirit. Some things transcend language barriers. One being music. I would love to be able to celebrate their spirits at a WSP gathering. I plan to be at the Fox to commune with our children and the WSP family.
this touches my soul everytime and has really helped me through some rough times last few weeks. the boys never let me down and always lift my spirits in the darkest times!!!!
Posting this to social media today... as it is now more fitting than ever during these trying times of uncertainty. Never stop making music. You are my happy place in this world. 🙏🏻Namaste.
+Stephen Haupt how could anyone not think this is an absolutely kickass jam? these guys rock. I saw them the first night Jimmy Herring played with them and it rocked
+michael hunter ok, I preferred Mikey to Jimmy, and Jimmy to GMac, but this is about this song and maybe your perception of Leonard Cohen. I was so happy to get to see LC play a 4 hour show in Chi 2 years ago. Was listening to setbreak music live the night before this, and they played a LC song at setbreak, maybe Suzanne, I don't recall, I just had a minor "holy cow"! moment. Then next night came this song, which means a lot to me. It wasn't Mikey v. Jimmy, it was transcendent.
Thank you for that, JB. When my brother passed away my two brother-in-law's picked and sang Hallelujah. The emotions...the memories... I was truly touched that night. Thank you so much WP. its amazing after all these years this band continues to strike such a touching chord.
Goosebumps then; goosebumps now. I love how Das gives a couple of thumps on the bass around 3:40 to let JB know that it was time for Jimmy to take the solo. Love these guys.
Yep, the Rev. Bell was so wrapped up in it, he was about to bring it right on home through the break! That nod and chuckle to Dave, and "thanks" smile, are priceless! Gotta love the live stuff!
JB you are amazing!! Same goes for the other 5 up there with you. Ive been a spreadhead since 98 and you guys have literally changed my life. Nobody.... I mean nobody can come close to you guys on stage. 89 shows since 98, can't wait till the next one. If this band don't impress you need professional help.
I went to my first panic show in Wilmington, NC 2022, my friends got me birthday tickets since I turned 18. I never told them this but WSP has literally changed my whole life and perspective on it. It was like they were showing me “see life isn’t all too bad now is it?” And I responded “I see now!” with my horrible dancing skills😂
Gorgeous I like WSP but never got into them like The Grateful Dead or Phish but covers like this and shows like Carbondale 2000 blow me away every time I hear them and each time my respect for them grows I am crushed I. Never got to see them with Mickey. That Carbondale show is the best first big snowstorm of the season driving music ever that chilly water papas home etc in the second set is ethereal
I really wouldn't consider this song religious. Its mostly a song about love. It does have a "churcy" sound, though. It sort of is spiritual in its own way.
Look for this , the last weeks I listen a lot to Leonard Cohen, last night I head a strange dream about John Bell, something like a boat trip around the usa with him like a sort of captain; there were many coincidends, but He stays strong , and he was really a nice and emotional person in this dream
I’m not a break out the phone and record at shows guy, but I got the camera out to film this. A religious experience. The Fox was on fire that night, and this was a perfect way to end the first set.
Oh, and my wife and I left our then 8 month old at home with his grandmother so we could go to this show. Tonight, my now 4 year old request this to go to sleep to. A family that Panics together, stays together.
that's not cut out Josh groban but this is a warm blanket from the dryer around your shoulders that the tears from your eyes will catch it feeling safe and happy
well guys maybe that one did not go through my connection went off I wish Christmas lasted all day in our hearts and everyday attitude go to your local community free dinner volunteer we have been since Leo my six year was born they need our love smile just talking to them serving them fellowship with everyone that is lonely and thinks no one cares Leo is now chief table washer a ham at heart and I am thankful for my beautiful kind boys think about how much we have we take for granted people need love human contact jack shoes blankets heaters let's go AND SPREAD OUR LOVE!!!!!!
Wow...back in the day, I saw WP here and there, but I wasn't a diehard spreadhead--I preferred pHish and SCI and GD and Phil and MMW and ABB, etc. and bck then I didn't relate to all those who were so moved by JB. but goddamn, his voice now sounds viciously gorgeous...like I said, I don't know shit/aint no spreadhead, but to me, JB has never sounded better. god bless. I will wear my filthy innocent vizer w/ a new swagger, haha.

He gets to listen full time now, I'm jealous, I mourn your loss.

I played this at my little Brother's funeral. It was the first funeral I ever did. RIP Dino! GBNF!!!
My buddy was crying during this, while I was smiling/laughing with utter joy. The emotions this band can invoke is incredible. WSMFP
+Jackson Tucker Yeah, dude! I'm pretty sure I was laughing and crying at the same time! What a killer show!
Did the same when they busted it out at red rocks this year
Pussy
Jk
There’s a time and a place.Life!!!!!WTF?
Still my top 3 band of all time. So many good memories on tour with WSP and all the “good people” that follow them as well.
THIS BAND ~ has an anointing that you can not describe verbally ❤️
I agree 110 percent! ❤
Best Band in the Land!!
Your god damn right sean!

Who could dislike this version?
Finest JB maybe ever. it's up with the Diner from Asheville and Arleen in 97. Raleigh 2000...
JB you are amazing!! Same goes for the other 5 up there with you. Ive been a spreadhead since 98 and you guys have literally changed my life. Nobody....

Oh wow!!!! chill bumps
gettin churchy never sounded so good. this version really touched me
Barbara Thoney churchy?
I really wouldn't consider this song religious. Its mostly a song about love. It does have a "churcy" sound, though. It sort of is spiritual in its own way.
This is always one of my fav things
Cheers me up and makes me grateful ❤️

Börni !76 go for it !! my dear Leonard Cohen will be always here !! dreams tell us quite a bit
Börni !76 right now dear him Sharon and David are chilling out they passed with beautiful grace I hope I get that chance
Damn that was incredible
Sorry for your loss. Beautiful tribute!
It's been a long time since I downloaded music.
Love this 🖤🩶
It's like Cohen wrote this for John Bell to sing.
Agreed
wow. chills
I knew I should have gone to NYE 🙃
Anyone else think it favors Buckley's rendition with Cohen's flair in the arrangement?
Nope,it’s good but not THAT good, another fantastic version is by K.D. Lange,I highly suggest you look it up on TH-cam !
JB no auto tune required
MAV Vince if you could not done yourself since 1985 have a little grace
I probably share this 10 times a year just becuz!
Big up my brotherz-
Leonard Cohen
Long live WSMFP 💜🧡💚
