As long as they don't try to mess up his style with something they 'want'. He don't need autotuned, shaped or molded into their cookie cutters. Howard has a home for him on XM or here on You Tube.
I didn't want to be a buzzkill here but this song was originally played in E with an open tuning on the acoustic guitar. Maybe that's why somebody thumbed it down.
Lukas and his band are real musical treasure. I had the good fortune of seeing them open for The Who in Nashville. Great performance and a killer cover of CSN.
I know what you mean. This song has never sounded fresher... and when you think of all the musical DNA these guys carry, it’s profound. Shaping up to be an epic band...
I completely agree, but as an American ( at the present anyway) I am very worried. There are millions of citizens who agree with the messages of Lukas and similar musicians. However, there are millions of racist, selfish people here who could give a shit about the environment, claim to be religious and are complete hypocrites, and are not interested in equality in education, healthcare, access to quality food and services, etc. Basically, they don’t give a shit about anybody but themselves.
Lucas, you've got this man. You got this music thing in your genes and its a beautiful thing. You were taught well, right from the get go, from your youth. Neil has passed on to you his gift, you have learned will, its what he wanted to do, your his chosen one. Enjoy Amigo.
Wow, just WOW. Willie Nelson, I want to thank you for bringing us this talented and very good looking person! Lukas Nelson, you are awesome, dude. With a voice like that, there is no end to what you can musically accomplish. LOVE IT! Carry On...
No, it's not the 'Promise of the real', it is 'The Real' ! Listening again and again these perfect vocal arrangements and the clear, honest Lead Guitar it can't be better. This is, how american music has to be to be great again.
Phenomenal version! One of my favorite CSNY tracks. Absolutely love it. I have watched this video many times. This is NOT an easy song to pull off live. Promise Of The Real sound amazing on this timeless classic! Bravo young maestros!
I've been living UNDER A ROCK !!! Lukas and POTR are amazing. Caught performances on Luck Reunion , Austin City Limits, and Willie's 4/20 Come & Toke It. All the best qualities of Dad's voice-- and more. This one has incredible harmonies in the vocals, and excellent musicianship
Wow - goosebumps!! - you are rockin a song I heard at CSN concert many years ago... added your own signature to this phenomenal song! music my mother language
That was dope af! That is one man who is a musical freak genius who will take rock and roll back to the hippies and awake the young with his spiritual earth friendly lessons in his music and promotioning sustsinable life for us all! They probably don't have a bigger gramma fan. They are are number two on my play list right after Tom Petty & the Heartbreaks.
Oh my word! 1). Please someone teach me how I can set this to be my morning wake up “alarm” (on an iPhone). 2) With their Amazing Cover of THis particular song, Lukas and Promise of the Real give a whole new glorious appreciation for the Past (and CSN) along with EXTRAORDINARY UNABASHED gratitude for the “REAL” Present - and Thoroughgoing tingly smiling HOPE for the FUTURE. Aw Heck, I really can’t find words to say how delighted hearing and seeing this performance makes me feel; struck speechless really (and probably should have stayed that way, but I’m really hoping someone can tell me how to set this youtube to wake me up in the mornings). Many 🙏🏽 Thanks! 😊
So good! As good as the original CSN version and I've never heard another cover of this song that ever was. I felt like I was back in the '70s. In a good way.
What a great way to wake up and start my day. thanks to all for posting. Let's up the awakening continues on in our nation in these most unbelievable times!
Covering CSN like only you can do. They are one of my favorite bands with some of the best harmonies. Southern Cross is tops. Great cover. Excellent job you guys did. Shred that guitar. I’m hyped up now. Just wow. I can’t wait to catch a concert from you guys. 🦋
As a big phan of The Grateful Dead, Phish, CSNY, Allman Bros ... WELL FRIGGIN DONE! Mega respect to not just "play" it but go give the song the respect it is due. Well done. You guys need to come to Cincinnati.
One of the best covers I’ve ever heard.
DAMN. THE GUITAR TONE IS ORGASMIC. EVERYTHING IS PERFECT. JUST ONE OF THOSE COVERS THAT DO JUSTICE TO THE ORIGINAL.
Lukas Nelson, please help bring back grit and soul to popular music. And top 40 radio, please give this guy a chance. You won’t regret it. We need him
As long as they don't try to mess up his style with something they 'want'. He don't need autotuned, shaped or molded into their cookie cutters. Howard has a home for him on XM or here on You Tube.
So agree we need this band
The word impressive doesn't do this justice. This is beyond fantastic! Carry On!
He keeps honing his craft and pushing himself. His time with Neil was and is well spent . Dad must be proud.
Im weeping. They friggin nailed it! First heard this song some 50 years ago. Im young once again.
Old enough to remember the original, this is something else, I love it .
Great rendition needed at this point in time.......
Lukas Nelson always surprises me of his choices in selections ,interpretations
This is straight-up incredible...
straight up...got my attention!!
Seriously impressed by this. Not an easy song to cover live. Well done.
GREAT cover. Not sure who would give this a "thumbs down".
I didn't want to be a buzzkill here but this song was originally played in E with an open tuning on the acoustic guitar. Maybe that's why somebody thumbed it down.
Lots of people suck, dude. But not a majority!
Lukas and his band are real musical treasure. I had the good fortune of seeing them open for The Who in Nashville. Great performance and a killer cover of CSN.
That would have been so special. I hope one day to catch them in concert but someone is gonna have to open for them. 🦋
Quite Fantastic. It’s so awesome to see young bands carry the torch.
Well Done Lads
No doubt
👍🏼
What a great cover from a very talented group of young men!
Best live performance Stern ever had
One of the very, very true "Artist" in American music today.. Long live Lukas Nelson.. Best songwriter in country music today.
Definitely one of the greatest songs ever made..
And they freaking killed it.
Heck yeah.🎶
They promise the real, and they bring it!
It's in their name, they "promise the real"
Damn, this band is good.! They so ROCKED this song!
And the sound quality of this video is absolutely superb!!!!!
If you didn't know that's Willie Nelsons son
OMG!!!! These guys are amazing! Love this- Gotta go see them live. The raw authenticity of their voices!
ELY NV LOVED HIM
Right On .....Carry On...62 years old and loving your music
you gotta really bring it to cover csn. and they do.
Bringing it back! Well needed!
I know what you mean. This song has never sounded fresher... and when you think of all the musical DNA these guys carry, it’s profound. Shaping up to be an epic band...
Seeing Lucas and company performing CSN somehow i less worry for future of americana..
Miley Cyrus.........don't you mean MILEY CYRUS ?!!??
CSNY
Marija Završki you put into words exactly what I was feeling!
My sentiment as well.
I completely agree, but as an American ( at the present anyway) I am very worried. There are millions of citizens who agree with the messages of Lukas and similar musicians. However, there are millions of racist, selfish people here who could give a shit about the environment, claim to be religious and are complete hypocrites, and are not interested in equality in education, healthcare, access to quality food and services, etc. Basically, they don’t give a shit about anybody but themselves.
This is the best.... so glad Lukas and the boys decided to cover this and what a fine job they did . Music definitely runs in the blood.
OMG. This Lukas and Promise of The Real cover does more than justice to the CSN masterpiece!
One thing that this version has that the original does not is the organ howling in the background during the Questions portion of the song. I dig it.
That was perfection. Blu me away luckus is a rocker with an ole soul
I'm takin' deep breaths and smilin'. Not sure how I want to say thanks for this.
Lucas, you've got this man. You got this music thing in your genes and its a beautiful thing. You were taught well, right from the get go, from your youth. Neil has passed on to you his gift, you have learned will, its what he wanted to do, your his chosen one. Enjoy Amigo.

I can't get enough of this song. Freakin AWESOME!!!!!
Witnessed this at the Ryman show back in May. Floored. Absolutely beautiful cover of a timeless song.
Wow!! Can’t get this version out of my head- might be the best cover of a classic I’ve ever heard 🎸🎸
As a late 80's teen, for my first concert I saw CSN with my parents. This is so awesome.
Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real are the best out there for me! This cover is amazing!!!!
Phenomenal version! One of my favorite CSNY tracks. Absolutely love it. I have watched this video many times. This is NOT an easy song to pull off live. Promise Of The Real sound amazing on this timeless classic! Bravo young maestros!
Holy mother! This is sooooo good! Love it!

CSN WAS A GREAT group. Lukas and the POTR, are Incredible. This from an over 70 fan.

I've been living UNDER A ROCK !!! Lukas and POTR are amazing. Caught performances on Luck Reunion , Austin City Limits, and Willie's 4/20 Come & Toke It. All the best qualities of Dad's voice-- and more. This one has incredible harmonies in the vocals, and excellent musicianship
I’m sure very member of CSN would bow in homage to this performance. Epic. Thank you for your musical awareness and talent!
Wow, wow, wow. Amazing and wonderful!!!!!

How could somebody give a thumbs down to that??? And Lucas, please don't cut your hair. Thanks
42 dummies
martha, mydear Oh, I don’t think he will. No. But I would like to hear him cover Almost Cut My Hair.
And keep in mind, this band is singing as a duo what CSN did as a trio. This is pretty bad ass.
Haha. We old ladies love the hair, don't we? :D
Never cut your hair.
THIS JUST HOWLS THE WORDS !!! DEJA VU !!!💙✌️
Exquisite! Love this cover as much as the original.
Best cover of this song! I remember the original when it first got airplay...LOVE Lukas and his band...
