Jackson has been my favorite musician/songwriter since 1972. I couldn't be a bigger fan than i have been most of my life. This is one of my favorite videos. I think he was 47 or 48 here. I;m so glad i found your site, i watch it more than you know as i stay pretty quiet and take it in.
One thing I’ve noticed with Jackson Browne’s vocal in this song is not only that rich, caramel tone, but he’s also using using dramatic punches to add a layer of percussion to it. He’s just brilliant and unique and so undervalued in the history of music.
Except that he’s my favorite, so some of us don’t undervalue him! His writing and composition, emotion, who he plays with, DAVID LINDLEY, how he sings, poignant lyrics… ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think you are dead on correct. And in contrast, when he quietly sings "out into the cool of the evening strolls the pretender" and all the accompaniment drops away, the impact is stunning. It's like a velvet punch to the soul.
I'm going to find myself a girl Who can show me what laughter means And we'll fill in the missing colors In each other's paint-by-number dreams And then we'll put our dark glasses on And we'll make love until our strength is gone And when the morning light comes streaming in We'll get up and do it again Get it up again What a wonderful lyricist this guy is :-)
I love that too. It's full of great lyrics, start to end. One i like as well is " I'm gonna rent myself a house in the shade of the freeway". I might live a sheltered life but i can't think of many freeways that have shade. Such a clever brilliant songwriter.
“The Loadout/Stay; Hold on Hold out; Running on Empty; Doctor in my Eyes; The Pretender, etc” Jackson Browne … wow! What a package, what a gift. Just lovely to listen to forever. JB is the gift that thankfully just continues to keep on giving.
I've loved Jacksons songwriting, singing, musicianship, overall artistry and great looks for a long time Thank you Fil...You are another talent who can speak well and express your views so intelligently
I love Jackson's music and songwriting abilities. I also think he is gorgeous. Very handsome man. Listening to his music brings back a lot of memories. When you are 67 it works out that way. Fil always does a wonderful job analyzing this music. Fil is very intelligent while listening and describing the music. Thanks Fil for listening to this great classic. ❤️🌹❤️
Caught between the longing for love, and the struggle for the legal tender. What a great line! This song is almost like the lines of an Eastwood or Duke Wayne movie for memorable dialogue.
Younger Or Older - How Can You Not LOVE Jackson Browne!🎸 You Can Take Any Line From This Song & It Is Amazing ...Such A Gifted Songwriter!💗 Great Analysis, Fil!
He’s an amazing storyteller! You can relate to any one of his songs and use it as a canvas for some experience you have had at one point in life. Cool Fil👍👍
Saw JB at a small Cambridge, MA coffeehouse in the early 70s - just him and a piano, singing those great classics from his first albums. I'll always remember that night ✌👱♀️
Thank you for recognizing the talent and genius of Jackson Browne. It was nice to watch you enjoy listening to the song and appreciate your insightful commentary.❤️
Superb analysis and break down on Jackson Browne... a nice way to start the weekend off with the sounds of Jackson! thanks Fil and keep Rockin' through the years.
'Doctor My Eyes', i have always loved Jackson Brown, this song is so moving, beautifully done, lyrics, guitar playing, Ballad like, his voice is something to behold, his band compliments him very, very, well! Great break down Fil, another on point Analogy......
Great one, Fil. Jackson Browne will continue to inspire me forever. He has made an impact on this world with his voice and writing ability. Without a doubt, an adept wordsmith legend who has always been able to speak truth and convey emotion in each tune. ~ Tylor Walsh
There is no finer songwriter or performer alive today than Jackson Browne... he can perform with a backup band, but when I saw him, he had about 17 guitars on a rack in front of him and a piano... and he just mesmerized us all with song after song and spoken stories in between. Thanks for this. The Pretender is a masterful song, but also a masterful story. What a writer.
Back in the late 1980s, I saw Jackson play with his own band; Lindley and El Rayo X were the opening band. El RayoX were great but the classic-rock type audience didn't have any patience for this strange-looking guy that apparently they never heard of ( I guess they never bothered to read the liner notes to JB's records). Part way through Jackson's set with his own band, everybody else left the stage, the roadies wheeled out a piano, Jackson sat down and started to play, and we heard the strings of a violin come through the PA system as Lindley strolled out, playing the violin. They did a half a dozen duets together: piano and guitar, guitar and violin two guitars, and so on. It was *magical*, but the obnoxious and somewhat drunk crowd would not shut up. They kept calling out for other songs, and although some tried to clap along with the music, they had been drinking and couldn't keep good time, and anyway it wasn't really appropriate clap-along music. At one point, Jackson said to the crowd, "y'all are asking for some really old songs. I guess this must be the valley that time forgot!" An audience can make-or-break a concert.
I have to confess that I have always been so enamoured by Jackson's skill as a wordsmith that for me the instrumentation tends to fade into the background as I get wrapped up in the story. Thanks for providing the push I needed to really appreciate the totality of the performance!
Absolute respect for your knowledge of “music theory”, and songwriting......While I enjoy listening to musicologists break down my favorite songs, I admit that I find a little selfish solace, in that I can enjoy music and find “wonder”, and “awe” in the magic these artists create, without understanding the “mechanics” behind it.......Really enjoyed the video, and for what it’s worth, “Late for the Sky”, is my favorite JB song....Maybe, one day you can enlighten us with a reaction.
It is a true gift to have the ability to sing what ordinary people are experiencing and thinking, Make no mistake, music is a catalog of someone's life experiences and observations. Jackson made them real and relevant. Thanks man...
Morning Fil, just woken up to this, what a song, what a performance, what a lyric. " I wanna know what became of the changes we waited for love to bring " magical stuff eh? Thanks Fil.
Due to his expertise Fil can never be called a pretender. This is an awesome song choice. Fil, your analysis helps me to realize why I have always been moved by Jackson's music.
Your channel has one of the best thumbs up vs thumbs down, but there's always those trolls or lil adults that live in their parents basement that get their jollies and kicks giving thumbs down. To them I say walked on dirt and mudholes is in a much higher class than them. Sorry for the rant Fil and once again I'll say fabulous job with your observation, you're all class and I love your channel! ❤❤❤
@Brad zybola I've always believed in having dreams and goals. It gives you direction or purpose in life. With that and some original out of the box thinking the skys the limit as they say. The Rant sounds original to me and you could start basing your songs off rants like why do I even bother talking to my wife about something I did for her when five minutes later she asks why I didn't do what I just had specifically said I did. Lol (That's just a lil example of what happened to me tonight)
Ahhhh, Jackson....fell in love with him in the late 70's. He songs were what I was living. Got the chance to meet him (now a few times) years later. Brilliant generous and very kind man. You are so good with this....it is such a pleasure to watch and listen to you. Keep it going....wish you the best.
So glad I found your videos! Wonderful examination on different levels for those of us who love every aspect of music. You could analyze every Jackson Browne song and I’d never be bored. Bravo.
Some people listen to music and some hear music, you encourage people to hear the music. Jackson Brown is one of the greatest story tellers of our time. IF ever do one of his songs again would you consider "For a Dancer".
Nice. I've loved Jackson Browne since the beginning. Even bought his book in the mid '80s (its here, somewhere). Fave album cover, 'Late For The Sky". Family had a '54 Bel Air so,,, Here, fave line, "....i've been aware of the time going by. They say in the end, its a wink of an eye....". a little sick of it all....Lines been in my brain for weeks.. oh, can't forget, Jackson lent his Dumble and i believe studio time to SRV for "Texas Flood" but y'all probably knew that already.
Absolutely one of the most devastatingly sad songs; the hopes and dreams of youth giving way to the realities of just trying to make the bills and find whatever love or joy we can along the way. Jackson Browne lyrics always cut right through the soul. Thanks for the insight into songwriting and dynamics!
This song is such an introspective experience!! Jackson Browne could move you with his lyrics. You have explained all of the reasons I love this song. Great job!! You are the best at instruction and explaining technical points, artist history, and how/why we respond to the music like we do. 🎼🎸🤘💖
I was raised on music and Jackson was one guy that made a name for himself with he songs. I never saw Jackson, but a friend of mine did and he played Doctor my eyes and it turned into a 30 minute guitar am that bought down the house. A great guy.
Such an excellent storyteller in song. And as others have mentioned, an integral part of the Eagles early days songwriting development. Great analysis as per usual
Fil, I don't discriminate when it comes to music. I love all genres if I feel it . Jackson Browne was my 3rd concert I ever saw. Have all of the his stuff love his two acoustic albums. Thanks feel this Kind of music is in my wheelhouse.🤙
ahhh, this is a total favorite...that I didn't think I could possibly love more, but now, I do. Thank you for the wonderful explanation of the performance! My gosh.
Howdy howdy , I saw where someone critiqued his analysis the other day trying to be positive and Fil responded in a positive way. He definitely kicked it up tonight on the musical aspect. I wonder if that has something to do with it
@@jamesgordonakacrazylegs8222 I remember that comment, but, except for the "Hello! Fil here..." and the "there you have it" part, the videos all seem quite different to me. Discovering that there are commonalities shared by great musicians and bands across so many different eras and genres still amazes me. This particular performance was kind of a peak one, it might have brought out a peak analysis?
@@lynndow3185 brilliantly put, I believe that's exactly what the professor was trying to explain for the guy. You're good have you ever thought about doing this to.
Love JB. He’s great live in concert. So gifted. Rock Me On The Water would be another good one to analyze. Thanks for another great analysis video-speaking of gifted!
I played this album Running on Empty over and over. I went back in the archives of my mind, actually the internet😎and I saw him August 8, 1973 at the Greensboro Coliseum and the other group with him was America. Not sure who took first billing. I was 10 years old and my much older older sister took me in her Jensen Healey with the top down This concert, my very first, was influential to my music interests. Then two years later I saw the Eagles at the same place. Thanks, Fil.
Fil, please include a Jackson Browne analysis which has the great David Lindley on slide guitar The Load out/ Stay live for example. You will see a very tight band and excellent playing from them all!!! Great work Fil !!!!
Fil, Listen to the album, "Late For The Sky". Jackson's lyrics and music with David Lindley's brilliant guitar playing is perfection. "For Everyman" is another genius album. Then listen to the songs, "Lives In The Balance" and "Shape Of A Heart". This is some of the greatest songwriting in the last 100 years.
What a great analysis.👏 Love this song. "I think" this song relates to you alot Fil especially the lines about "Out into the evening strolls the Pretender, he knows that all of his hopes and dreams begin and end there". I sometimes think about you leaving your studio all hours of the night. You have been so devoted to your fans. I applaud & admire you. Sorry, dreaming thinking out loud again. If I ever see a T-shirt that says "The Pretender" I will have to get it and send it to you! Have a great day❤❤
Wow Fil, you just keep bringing out the gems for old farts THANK YOU!😍 Just watched an interview with Browne/Henley about how he shelved Take it Easy and Glenn Frey who saw promise in it kept bugging him to finish it. Year later he still hadn't so Frey did with the line about the girl in the flatbed Ford and the rest is history. People of our generation cannot imagine a world without Take It Easy because it changed the 70s disco (yawn) music scene forever and made way for all the great country rock artists that followed Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris, Gram Parsons, Lynard Skynard, Marshall Tucker, Pure Prairie League, New Riders of the Purple Sage (Lonely LA Cowboy GREAT SONG th-cam.com/video/PMhp9S_8Qr0/w-d-xo.html ) to name a few and YES JACKSON BROWNE TOO!!!

One thing I’ve noticed with Jackson Browne’s vocal in this song is not only that rich, caramel tone, but he’s also using using dramatic punches to add a layer of percussion to it. He’s just brilliant and unique and so undervalued in the history of music.
Very Definitely Under Valued!
Except that he’s my favorite, so some of us don’t undervalue him! His writing and composition, emotion, who he plays with, DAVID LINDLEY, how he sings, poignant lyrics… ❤❤❤❤❤❤

"Fill in the colors in each others paint my number dreams". What a great line. Awesome song done by a great songwriter. Love me some Jackson Browne.
Hi Mr jinks . It is a beautiful line .What if you pick someone who doesn't come with full palette? 🙄!
I'm going to find myself a girl
Who can show me what laughter means
And we'll fill in the missing colors
In each other's paint-by-number dreams
And then we'll put our dark glasses on
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
And when the morning light comes streaming in
We'll get up and do it again
Get it up again
What a wonderful lyricist this guy is :-)
I Know - I Love That!
I love that too. It's full of great lyrics, start to end. One i like as well is " I'm gonna rent myself a house in the shade of the freeway". I might live a sheltered life but i can't think of many freeways that have shade. Such a clever brilliant songwriter.
What a Great Songwriter, Musician, Singer ...;.;one of the All Time Greats
But extremely overlooked today. As are many artists from the '70s. There were just so many across the entire music spectrum.
Bloody fantastic and he's done so much for so many artists
“The Loadout/Stay; Hold on Hold out; Running on Empty; Doctor in my Eyes; The Pretender, etc” Jackson Browne … wow! What a package, what a gift. Just lovely to listen to forever. JB is the gift that thankfully just continues to keep on giving.
So many great songs given to us through Jackson Browne! Was always into his music...just such a part of my long life.
I've loved Jacksons songwriting, singing, musicianship, overall artistry and great looks for a long time

One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Ugh. Glorious.
I love that whole album. That and Running on Empty.
They were on different albums, if I recall correctly. But both great!
@@colleenmahony8803 Yep, two different albums, each with a great title song.
I got to meet the whole band in St. Petersburg, FL at the Bayfront center. It was their Running on Empty tour. It was a great show and a great band.
True love could have been a contender..
Not what money could buy..
Jackson is the man...all the guys want to be him...all the girls want to be with him...Great job as always Fil.
Great one, Fil.

Love Jackson Browne!! One of my favorites.. Thanks for doing this! Awesome reaction
You can see how much you are enjoying this beautiful song.
Always appreciate the musician's breakdown on music. It comes from detailed point of view.
Fil, you always add a perspective that I had never considered. Always loved Jackson. Thanks!
I can't believe how passionate and knowledgeable you are after so many videos !!!
He is one of my favorites! He is so talented...composing his music on both guitar and piano...and such beautiful lyrics.
Phil your analysis makes me go back and really listen deep into the songs. Thank you sir.
I love Jackson!! And you are awesome as well!!
What a wordsmith.💖Amen.
Love the way your are so thorough in your comments....I have subscribed!
Thanks!
Fantastic Analysis , Fil Bravo !
Thanks!
Fascinating, thank you.
Love everything the guy ever did. Incredible range of skills.
Thank you Fil
Yer "you know" 🤘 ROCK

Saw Jackson Brown about four times maybe 10-15 yrs ago. Never let me down. Such a professional. Love his music. And so easy on the eyes....
Beautiful Beautiful song. So so Beautifully written. Dang...thats great stuff. Just Love this song. Love The Pretender.
Really great analysis, excellent insights.
Jackson is one of my favorites. Never seen this performance. Thanks, Fil❣️
Brilliant analysis of a brilliant song. Great stuff Fil
Another great one. Fountain of Sorrow arguably his greatest work...
One of my favorite songs. The lyrics are so relatable and just a damn good song. Thanks for this (again), Fil.
Love this song! Your analysis just enhances it...love your f***ing enthusiasm; deepens my appreciation for Jackson's work.
One of my favorite songs; it has so much meaning for me. Great livestream tonight, by the way, Fil!💖
There is a Jackson Browne song for every stage and emotional place of my life. Starting at age 16 with Doctor My Eyes.
Classic Jackson Browne 🇺🇸
Some people listen to music and some hear music, you encourage people to hear the music. Jackson Brown is one of the greatest story tellers of our time. IF ever do one of his songs again would you consider "For a Dancer".
Nice. I've loved Jackson Browne since the beginning. Even bought his book in the mid '80s (its here, somewhere). Fave album cover, 'Late For The Sky". Family had a '54 Bel Air so,,,
Here, fave line, "....i've been aware of the time going by. They say in the end, its a wink of an eye....". a little sick of it all....Lines been in my brain for weeks..
oh, can't forget, Jackson lent his Dumble and i believe studio time to SRV for "Texas Flood" but y'all probably knew that already.
Thank you for your analysis of Jackson Browne’s compositions and performances. I loved your thoughts and observations.
Absolutely love Jackson Browne. He is our California boy! Thanks, Fil for featuring this wonderful song.
As always, I learned something, Fil. Thanks. Rock on 🤘 🎸 🥁 🎤💙

One of the greatest songwriters of our time. Underrated guitarist, working with David lindley for so many years built up his chops.
Thanks Fil!... I love Jackson Browne!!!.✌❤🤘
King of the lyrics and he knew how to sing them!
The Rocking Head, the pure smile.!!! Love ya bro.!
Always loved his vocals.
Jackson’s songs always have such gorgeous, infectious melodies that almost belie the depth and insight of his lyrics.
I have listened to that album a thousand times over the years, one of those I can listen to anytime, love him.
Great song , I haven't heard in quite a while. Another amazing interesting analysis. Fabulous!🎵👏🎸🤘
One cannot miss a Jackson Brown tune... forever smooth. All the best from the desert where each day is a dry 110-115.
😍😍😍 What a talent. Awesome analysis, love the song. Wish you would do this song Fil. 😍😘🤗💕👏

1st April 2021 - Leland Sklar who played on the album version , covered this song today. Great song/songwriter.
Good Choice Another great artist from my youth
Jackson Brown , love his songwriting -
great review✌️
Fil, please include a Jackson Browne analysis which has the great David Lindley on slide guitar The Load out/ Stay live for example. You will see a very tight band and excellent playing from them all!!! Great work Fil !!!!
Kev Huby David Lindley is a master

Jackson Browne a real class act. I remember when they used to play music like this on the radio.

Great song. Great album by the same name. I wouldn't call Jackson a "great" vocalist but he's an absolute genius songwriter. Brilliant wordsmith.
This particular performance is so good!
Saw him in NJ years ago on the Running on Empty tour. Really excellent performance.
Jackson brown what a great singer and song writer.
