check out the album → woooong.com/MMSS Cory Wong - guitar, synth, mix Kevin Gastonguay - piano Louis Cato - bass Nate Smith - drums Joe Laporta - mastering
No one is talking about Kevin G. That piano is SICK! Cory seems to be one of the most humble band leaders, letting others solo and shine. He sits in the back smiling and glowing in others’ glory!
This song always gets me. I know the speech in the middle turns into a bit of a goof, but it truly lifts me up every single time. It always shows up on shuffle or now in my feed at just the right time. A little while after it first was released I was walking around a park in my neighborhood listening to the album. I had just moved to a city that I grew up near but wasn't really familiar with. I was starting a new job and was having a hard time. Right as Cory's solo kicked in during the speech I walked over a hill and the sun started shining right on me. It was such a beautiful moment I almost started to cry because I got this overwhelming feeling like everything was going to work out. Cheesey I know, but 100% real. Even listening to it now in the middle of covid, and unrest against rampant systematic racism, I still get that same feeling. Damn Cory rocks.
I've watched enough of Cory's videos to know that while this message is delivered in a loveable, goofy way, he's speaking his truth. There are very few people who can articulate this rampant, encompassing enthusiasm for each person's personal capability, but even fewer who can articulate that message behind a bumping grove. Cory is a national treasure!
I used to say "There are no guitar heroes any more". The last ones I loved were Hendrix, BB King, Clapton, Blackmore and a few others. Then nothing. Then came Derek Trucks. And then nothing again. But then came Cory Wong, and the sun is shining brightly into my mind every day!! :-)
Been listening to this great song for a while, and i just noticed the guy yelling at 4:11 sounds exactly like that popular goat screaming vid and now my sides hurts i'm laughing so much!
Last night I had a dream Cory was playing First Ave again and asked me to sing his songs. The concert was supposed to be the next day and I was kind of panicking. I ended up turning him down. Anyway, sweet to see these tracks being recorded. Adds a new level of enjoyment personally.
As someone who grew up and played in very cultish church environments, the speech was next level tongue-in-cheek. I had PTSD in the first half, and then was like, “go gettum, Cory” in the second half.
When I first heard Cory speak on the merits of the Companion Pass... I felt I understood it, and perhaps intellectually I did. But now I understand it E M O T I O N A L L Y
I think the problem with walking in someone's shadow is that sometimes you stand up tall and realize that the reason they looked like a giant to you is that it's sunset
hey, do you need a blurry picture of the ocean to post your incredibly deep quotes on instagram? i know some 14 year old teenagers who use those for their own profound wisdoms, and maybe they will share.
OH MY GAWD! I'm laughing and crying and feel like I'm ready to take on the world! brilliant and wonderful and funny and powerful and just mind blowingly great musically. whew! I think I need a cigarette... (and I don't smoke).
The "for 3 small payments of $29.99" really hit me in the feels.
Cory's speech reminds me of some zealous pentecostal preacher midway through a worship set, but then he goes full televangelist.
It's very very frightening

I am Japanese. I don't understand the language, but this song gave me a lot of courage. I love this song. あなたの作る音楽が大好きです!
@@MxJuneReese How is a phrase that short in English so long in Japanese?
Sitcom Theme Songs: Superior music genre
If liking this is Wong, I don't wanna be wight.

Very original, from what Cory vid did you take this from?

It's not cheesy, man. It's adequately responding to the power of music and nature. It's something we should all have. All the best!
Not the motivational speech we wanted, but the one we always needed
God, I love Cory’s music so much.
Nate Smith is such a BEAST!
Get these tasty chops for just $29.99
Such a steal.
Cory is the guitarist the 21st century needs!
completely agree: positive, tasteful, powerful, chops when they're needed

Cory walked up to you and was like, "There was one path you didn't try on the guitar yet....... RHYTHM!!!!!!!" 😎
I fucking love cory cause of how damn happy he looks whenever he's playing with anyone
Been listening to this great song for a while, and i just noticed the guy yelling at 4:11 sounds exactly like that popular goat screaming vid and now my sides hurts i'm laughing so much!
Got love Corys music. Makes you feel like your walking down sesame street on a sunny day
I'm sure one bearded man still watches over that Cory's monstrous guitar solo. Somewhere. Behind. Or in the hallway.
He smiles. For it has come.
Louis Cato and Nate Smith are so funky!
Love this mix Cory.

I called the number... it changed my life you guys.
Booking a flight anywhere?
Want to get away?
Amazing job making music and uniting people Mr. Wong. Yes, to you and your message, yes.
One of my favorite songs of 2019.

I was and wasn't ready for this at the same time.
I sent my payment via PayPal... just waiting for my cassette tapes to arrive.
bruh where did u find cassettes of it?? i only see vinyl
i now see it was a joke and am embarrassed :(
That Cory Wong vibe that brings us to life no matter what shenanigan falls upon us
Came for some guitar licks, left feeling empowered to take control of my life.
Cory Wong - one of the best music nowadays 👍😎🎸❤️
You've been holding onto this one. Thanks so much for releasing Cory!
2020 is a lot easier to deal with right now. Thanks, man!

Father Wong must be overwhelmingly proud at his son's ability to sell a product in the middle of a song. 😂 👏
The more compressed his guitar is the more my impressed I am
I know the speech is kind of satirical towards the end but it still gets me emotionally lol
Now this is a birthday gift, thanks Cory!
happy birthday!!
happy birthday 🎉
Happy birthday
I was raising my hand in my living room, waving like mad actually, but Cory didn't see me.
Very disappointed.
I'm keeping my $29.99 then.
Yes, he did. He know you would wave before you did it. That's why he wrote the song and posted it on TH-cam...
Louis cato on bass 🔥🔥 OMG
I listen to Cory Wong alot
Song is way encouraging and pretty funny, but still wicked encouraging. oh and Kevin G kills it.
Cory being the best at being Cory! Great tune, great speech. You have my vote.
I love the quilt over the piano 😂 they know what they’re doing! 🤘
The eye contact when piano solo finished. Excellent!
Kevin = FAVE (#newsoundunderground)
Cory :) thank you! 🙏
Sweet feeling groove. I hear a little of “The Best of My Love” in there on the head.
Cory I love the push and pull of the syncopation Amazing and it doesn’t sound empty great playing
So i learned how to play the intro off that reverb video and now I'm so excited to learn the rest of the tune
When this song came first came out, I listened to it on repeat haha. I love it!

AMAZING

大好き!

from Japan

Boom!! Been waiting for this one!
Estilo único de tocar la guitarra!
That speech is actually the stuff of genius. Not joking.
I have t share this with my Son! Thanks Corey!!!!
2:34 -"You liked that huh?"
And indeed, we all liked that
Actually: "I'm done, you ready for the next section?"
OH MY GAWD! I'm laughing and crying and feel like I'm ready to take on the world! brilliant and wonderful and funny and powerful and just mind blowingly great musically. whew! I think I need a cigarette... (and I don't smoke).
You're such beasts, sirs!
I loved it
Hell yeah
I'm getting some Wait for The Moment vibes
been waiting on this one for a bit :)))
reminds me of the Vaughan brothers album family style.
Love the song Cory and I also met you in nc with Charlie and it was amazing
Isaac Shaver your gay
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Gives me John P. Kee vibes for some reason.
Southwest Airlines!!!! Easter egg unlocked
Its like light and bright heavymetal
I'd love to get a printout of that speech transcript, would make a great poster
I always hear Spice Girls - Say You'll Be There at 0:50
Here this whole time I thought he was saying Paganini, and not Pat Metheny. I bet that's intentional.
I thought he was saying Pavadini! Don’t even know who or what a Pavadini is lol. Pat Metheny makes much more sense.
How they did not speed up during that bridge is wizard-level control
Finally
Genious
00:00 ah I see ur using the Wong triplet rhythm Porcaro Paul Jackson, Jr. ripoff lick ™️
When he goes full Tony Robbins mode I'm ready to PayPal that $29.99
0:00 The Wong-Diddly shuffle!
Both strats are locked into position four because that's how much pos 4 this needs
We got discount Vin Diesel on the keys over here.....
4th position!
"I am the best sloppy ass, Robert Fishman type drummer there is." - Robert "fish" Fishman
thank you ! :)

I called, it's Southwest Airlines!?
You are indeed a saver of other people's time.
Luis Cato and Nate Smith... 🤔 is this toooo good?
Dope👍🏿😎
Be u
holesum 💯
Vulfpeck like
Cory should sing
Shoutouts Nate Smith
It's like the best elevator music ever made! This is incredible 😍
Cory will never be Pat Metheny. That's so sad.
True, but Pat Metheny will never be Cory Wong. Double sadness multiplier!
wait so he has the same guitar twice?!
hahaha pretty much yea
At the end climax, I can't tell if Cory is going for JFK or Tony Robbin
I want to animate this sooo bad.
