This is a great concert for Jimmy's Flesh and Wood Album. The whole thing is fantastic. So up close and intimate. Lucky for those who got to see this live. I also like the Vevo version where Jimmy is playing a guitar.
I really loved this song a whole lot for it was not only getting to see Jimmy and Diesel perform together but also that it was done with an acoustic arrangement which is my favourite setting. "Still Got A Long Way To Go" was written by Mark Lizotte (aka "Diesel"). While the lyrics were beautiful they were also poignant and definitely tugged on my heartstrings. Jimmy and Diesel have a close and special bond for you can tell how much they love performing together. Both their faces light up for they just naturally work of each other in such a joyous way. Their voices sounded great individually and together, while Diesel on guitar is always fire. And you could hear and feel the passion and soul in both their voices, especially Jimmy for he gave so much emotion to the performance that he was perspiring like a mad man! My thoughts are that the song was about a person who experienced regret and sadness as a result of relationships and opportunities that never came to fruition. But despite that I liked that the song also showed positivity by that person taking comfort in knowing they had learnt from their struggles and that they were willing to keep persevering and move forward in life. Thank you for your reaction Vakasa, for I very much appreciate the extra time you have to spend breaking down the lyrics. For I always enjoy listening to your thoughts. Take care with much love and blessings. 😊🙏❤
Great request Heidi, I hadn’t seen this one before. As we know Jimmy was always great, espyin his earlier years, Diesel was also great and highly underrated. Diesel has such a great voice, gentle and clean and such soul in his voice, always liked his blues and soul type music, and the harmonies between Jimmy and Johnny were beautiful.
Thank you so much Dean I appreciate your support. 🙏❤ I've always liked this song Dean for not only its deep lyrics but also because I enjoy seeing Jimmy perform with Diesel. And you don't always see them in an acoustic setting, for Diesel is usually part of the band down back playing guitar. I agree with you that Diesel is very underrated which is a real shame for he certainly has a beautiful soulful voice and many great songs. Take "Cry In Shame" as Johnny Diesel & The Injectors and "Tip of My Tongue" flying solo as Johnny Diesel, for they are just two of my favourites. I wanted to ask you Dean that I would like to send in a request with a video from The Main Event. It has two songs in the one video, one with Olivia and Anthony followed by John doing Help. I know your last song on your list was Help but all the live versions have got copyrighted, so I thought because this Help song follows the other song it may slip through YT. Probably our best chance to hear a live version and taking into account that at The Main Event they had an orchestra and the Farnham band. Let me know your thoughts and if you would be ok with that, for if you give me the go ahead I will send the request when I get home from work. As you will remember it is for the 25th! I must go now Dean but take care and have a good arvo/night. 😊🙏❤
@@heidi09 you’re totally correct with everything you said Heidi, there’s something about an acoustic version of a song, whether it be a guitar or a piano or something else, just the silence apart from the instrument and the vocals and you get to hear more and understand the song and its lyrics more and feel the emotion. “Cry in shame” is one of my favorites from Diesel, such a catchy and soulful song and the others you mentioned also. As far as the request go, not a problem, the channel needs to see and hear a live version of that epic song, and John live at any age or concert is just incredible. Hope you’re doing well and all the best to you. ❤️
@@beresfordthompson1370 Thanks a lot Dean I will go ahead and request the video. I do hope the second song on the video goes through, but of course you never know with YT. But at least with two songs on the video it has a better chance than it being one. Thanks for asking I'm not doing too bad at the moment, for I worked today and yesterday. And will also be working on Thursday. So three days this week! I'm just taking it as it comes and if I'm no good then I will remain at home. Nothing else I can do! I hope you are also managing ok Dean for I always hope that you can find some better treatment and relief. Like me hang in there and take care. Have a good night Dean. 😊🙏❤
@@heidi09 thanks Heidi, hopefully there’s not problems with the reaction. I’m glad you’ve been having better days of late, a small step in the right direction. I’ve been very down with more problems, more pain, and no relief. Sore 2 different Physio’s and all they said is to do these exercises, which I have been doing for months. I said I needed some actual treatment and long story short, just do the exercises, like they don’t want to put their hands on me, don’t want to touch him? So depressing, causing a lot more anxiety and demoralizing, made me feel like absolute shit and some dangerous thoughts and some not so dangerous actions. These people get paid to treat not sit there and watch you do exercises, I know ongoing exercises are part of it but hoped for some relief to the injuries and pain. Have to go now as I’m getting very agitated and depressed talking about it, but thank you as always for your concern. Hope you have a good day tomorrow. ❤️
Hi Vakasa, thank you for letting me know about the first two songs which happened to be both from "Triple J Like a Version". I have found alternative live versions for the songs as follows: Song 1: th-cam.com/video/zlMDYzXs0-I/w-d-xo.html Song 2: th-cam.com/video/dHU-3gdHkPE/w-d-xo.html I think this may be a far better option than going through the copyright issue again. Many thanks. 😊🙏❤
@@heidi09 Thank you much Heidi. I appreciate you taking the time to do that. Hopefully those versions will be ok. If not, oh well, we tried 😅 I loved this song and understand why you do also. Hope that life is well for you today. Much love and blessings always. 🙏💜 P.S. I put out a new remix last night. I think you will love it. Check it out when you have a moment 🌝
@@vkmusic2727 You're welcome Vakasa! I will definitely check out your remix for I'll have quiet time this long weekend to have a good listen to it and share my thoughts! 😊
