      Renan Muniz from Brittany Howard, who ironically never had a vocal or guitar lesson in her entire life. 💯natural, god given talent. And that is phenomenal, a beauty rarely beheld.

      @@rebeccahopkins9522 No god has ever given talent like that to somebody. Ms. Howard has worked diligently for many years to develop her talent. She also has had many people help her along the way; just look at how many musicians she had helping her on the Austin City Limits stage (and probably that many technicians offstage) on the night they made this video.

    Brittany’s dynamics, vocals, musicianship and solo technique/feel is Second To NONE here! Hats off to her backup singer here too! David Gilmore & Brittany could easily & seamlessly switch places as lead guitarists in each other’s bands with this kind of organic and natural feel! Brittney is definitely one of the worlds best living singer/songwriter/musicians alive today! Absolutely Stellar!!

      Anyone familiar with Radiohead might drawn similarities between this song and "Blow Out": both have a very funky, heavy, druggy vibe, and both are very experimental and a significant departure from the band's usual sound. This song is, frankly, astounding: wonderful mood and blending of sounds.

    • @mistakang21
      @mistakang21 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      come on man..this song is on another level not taking anything from Radiohead but comparing blow out to this is like putting a screendoor on a submarine

    Her confidence on stage is so great. Love her voice.

    • @TruthArrows
      @TruthArrows 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      SalmonInYour Rice I agree. She emotes so purely and spiritually from her heart that it's like confidence isn't even really needed.
      But I know what you mean, she's amazing and so are the entire band. They play very well and very tight live.... which takes either Natural connection or a Lot of rehearsals.
      Peace :)

    • @rebeccahopkins9522
      @rebeccahopkins9522 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      SalmonInYour Rice don’t think it’s confidence that’s giving this. It’s a losing of oneself in the music and going to almost another world, to where there is no stage at all. Notice how her eyes are closed when she sings. She’s having a soul experience up there. And that’s precisely why it touches our souls when she sings. She’s stated many times she has horrible stage fright and I think that her ability to get lost in the music like that is what enables her to get up there in the first place.

    • @rebeccahopkins9522
      @rebeccahopkins9522 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      WhenTheWindigoComes I agree with you. It’s something other than confidence. It’s a soul connection. And the band is phenomenal as well and they all do have a natural connection. That organist is pretty bad ass. He really gets down. Don’t see or hear much organ these days. Such a potent and great throwback to the days of The Doors and Zeppelin’s John Pall Hones. Just love it.

    remember hearing this for the first time at shaky knees in atlanta like back in 2013/14, just had my jaw dropped and eyes wide the entire song. so explosive and such passion, as always by brit and gang. many years later, just came back to this song, and have those same feelings now. always so good.
