    met this guy round the back of the Manchester Apollo when he was playing with Fleet Foxes and complimented him on his drumming. He was like "I'm not really a drummer" and at the time I thought it was gross modesty. Now I know what he meant...

      great story. he was right, fortunately! but, nonetheless, he plays some tasty drums too.

      Fucking loved the Apollo. Mind Seen Pulp there in 98, still one of the greatest gigs I’ve seen.

    i just simply cannot go back to the studio version of this song no more. this blows that one out of the water.

      Same, here! It's a great song... but seemed so lackluster after this.

    Without trying to compare him to anyone cause he’s so damn enigmatic but I would say He’s the modern day Jim Morrison.

    Just came here to say I'm working night shift and, as per usual, this song / version gives me a little pep in my step. Everything about this rendition on KEXP just pushes this song/album over the top. What phenomenal work the audio engineer at KEXP does. KEXP really needs to figure out a way to get these songs available for download.

    LYRICS:
    I ran down the road, pants down to my knees
    Screaming "please come help me, that Canadian shaman gave a little too much to me!"
    I'm writing a novel.... because it's never been done before
    Oh First house that I saw I wrote house up on the door LORD
    And told the people who lived there they had to get out "cause my reality is realer than yours"
    And there's no time for the present.. duh!
    there's a black dog on the bed
    I went to the backyard naturally to burn my only clothes
    And the dog ran out and said "you can't turn nothing into nothing is with me no more"
    Well I'm no doctor.. not yet! but that monkey might be right
    Oooooh
    And if he is...... I'll be walking him my whole liiiiiiife OH!
    Woooooooaaahh!!
    I rode to Malibu ... on a dune buggy with Neil
    He said "you're gonna have to drive me down on the beach if you ever want to write the real"
    I said I'd love to... But "I'm sorry, young man what is your name again?"
    Now everywhere I go in West Hollywood
    It's filled with people pretending they don't see the actress and the actress wishing that they could
    We could do ayahuasca
    Baby if I wasn't holding all these drinks
    Something 'bout the way Violet whips her hair
    That makes me empty my pockets on the corner to corner bumming twenties as if I was the mayor
    I don't need any new friends, Momma
    But I could really use something to do
    So if you're up for it sometimes
    I swear you wouldn't have to be my muse
    Heidegger and Sartre, drinking poppy tea
    I could've sworn last night I passed out in my van and now these guys are pouring one for me
    I'll never leave the canyon - why would I?' cause I'm surrounded on all sides!
    By people writing novels and living on amusement rides

    I discovered this song in a channel called "Concert Channel" and I found so fucking awesome, plus the style and eccentric movements of Josh... love at first hearing with this song. In fact, I don't had internet in that moment, so I took a photo to the TV, just to search for the song later.

    I still vividly remember listening to this for the first time and it was Goose covering it. I thought to myself I don’t think they wrote this, did two seconds of research and found this version. Oh my god!

    This song is so good. Oh, to whomever said he's being serious: he is while he's joking, if that makes sense. He's joking, but that doesn't mean he doesn't believe in the joke.
    I would say this is the perfect blend of not taking it too seriously while still tearing that shit up. This has lit up my heart in a big way by touching my brain, my funny bone, my beliefs (legalize non-narcotic drugs dammit) and my get down. His voice is outstanding, too.

    The drummer looks like he really doesn't want to be there. Almost like he's disappointed with how his life has turned out and that he has to take gigs like this. He's probably rather be at some smoky bar in a Lynyrd tribute band!

    I want to like this guy.....but I don't find him believable. I don't feel that he belives in himself. Father John? You really in touch with your soul? This is about the second comment I have left on TH-cam in about 8 years. I hope I am wrong and that people find something great in him.
