Brian Fallon - Etta James (Audio)

[@TheHEROFamily]

Every once in a while an artist comes around that breathes new life into a dull music era. Brian is that artist.

[@Sebulbatron]

This isn't just one of the greatest song i've heard by Brian, it's one of the greatest songs i've ever heard period. That beautiful chorus knocks it out the park. Sleepwalkers really is a masterpiece.

[@thatperson8426]

Daniel Selberg the beginning reminiscent of his Teenage Dream cover. Exceedingly outstanding.

[@kaaylaac]

Yes yes yes.

[@ianbygate9983]

wooooppyyyyy

[@maddawgnp]

Completely agree, Daniel Selberg, Sleepwalkers is a complete masterpiece. His greatest work!

[@ianbygate9983]

thank you

[@Jesus4Soccer]

I can confidently say I've never heard a song by Brian that I did not love.

[@martemmie2711]

Me too!

[@Dicki793]

Maybe one or two 😂

[@lyineyes56]

Saw Brian do this live in Birmingham OMG 😭 And i am 62 ❤

[@aesstricker]

I cannot stop replaying this song. It's perfection to me, and I cry every time I listen to this. I swear, Brian Fallon has this ability to write a song and it feels like it was written for me. Almost every song he writes feels so very personal. This one just gets to me.

[@alexbatonisashvili2551]

Wow, time to check Brian and his discography. I'm speechless.

[@TheBash89]

Such a powerful and beautiful song... Just this one is enough to make the album a classic.

[@alexrain2194]

This should be released as a single. Like Brian and GLAs best songs, it drips with the perfect blend of passion and nostalgia

[@lizdowlingcodes6009]

Gotta slap this song on the wedding playlist for sure

[@TheHEROFamily]

This is easily my favorite song off this album. "If your prayers dont get to heaven" is a close second.

[@maddawgnp]

Instant tears! This may just be one of the greatest songs Brian Fallon has ever written! He really does a great job of reaching into your chest and touching your soul with “Etta James.” This song touches almost everyone in some way.

[@goldenageenthusiast]

I watched Brian play this song from his home last night. You guys would love his sets.

[@SteelyBud]

I'm always amazed that Brian Fallon can fit so many winding and intricate lyrics into a 4 minute song without sounding wordy or long winded. He can pack more emotions and thoughts into each individual song than many musicians can put into an entire album.

[@kevinobrien1602]

Well said. If I had to sum it up you hit it. He's the one artist that surprised me at every turn.

[@GoodOldDaysGaming]

I LOVE this track. The lyrics cut deep in that way only Brian Fallon has ever been able to.

[@mikeerickson9462]

You just don't hear songs like this anymore. This record is amazing.

[@robertmcvey4540]

I got to meet Etta James! She was was one of the most beautiful people I have ever met! She said to me and my friends as young men what do you boys know about the blues as she laughed! We didn’t know much but we knew Etta🌹💔☠️🙏

[@Robert-dx4wv]

I am the only robert mcvoy around here!

[@Robert-dx4wv]

You can hear the pain of in his voice as he breaks into the chorus!

[@Megglesticks]

Thank you for introducing me to this song. I miss you, B.

[@matthewstarnes6983]

You know those songs you find that just have so much emotion and soul that you find and it changes the way you think if for only a short time, and you just never want that song to end? Its like a religious experience almost. This is that song. I've loved TGA ever since The 59 Sound came out and changed my life. Keep it up Brian!!

[@patriciapiuma2423]

Damn!!!!! So many emotions! This is one of his best.

[@flytrueproductions1018]

He just knows how to hit you in the heart. Am I right??

[@ianbygate9983]

yes your right

[@ianbygate9983]

yes

[@GoodOldDaysGaming]

Chills went down my whole body as that final note rang out. Brian has never been short of amazing. His music has always stung in the best of ways and hit me like no other band ever has.

[@MatthewWoodhouse]

This song instantly made me wanna cry and I don’t even know why.

[@jennydavis6534]

It MADE me cry! He just sings it with so much emotion it literally just like hit me in the soul with all the feels. Absolutely one of my favs on this album!

[@justjessica3042]

Haha, I relate to this on another level. Typing this with a lump in my throat.

[@zednikzdenik]

I´m without words...this is so beautiful! Thanks Brian for an awesome piece of art.

[@andrepedro1885]

oh my god!!! Just cruising through some brian fallon and the gaslight anthem and I come across this music.. @BrianFallon your voice gives me goose bumps brother! Definitely my favourite male voice!

[@dragon53777]

I really loved Painkillers but this album hits it out of the planet, maybe the universe. It's just amazing through and through.

[@flytrueproductions1018]

I've never heard a song by Brian I did not love.

[@johnnystickhammerstein4514]

Damn, Brian. Damn! Thanks for the music, and a soundtrack for the headaches.

[@somebodythatyouusedtoknow6388]

In 5 months I turn 21. I always hoped I’d meet my person at the age of 20 so the “20 long years away from your heart” line could be ours. But life has different plans and mostly I doubt there is a “my person” out there at all.

[@punkBangla101]

The Magician of Words! love ya Brian!!!!

[@LoveMUSIC-p7e]

Sleepwalker and Local Honey are super Masterpieces!! I can't stop listening

[@Dicki793]

And painkillers. Excellent record too

[@LoveMUSIC-p7e]

@@Dicki793 Good album but Sleepwalker and Local HonEy are Masterpieces. Much better

[@95MidnightStar]

See You On The Other Side is definitely my favorite, but first I though second will be Watson, and for the last few days I've been listening to this repeatedly, and, I'm having doubts .

[@samuswilliams4576]

No words can describe my feelings for this song except love love and love:-)

[@cdoggtx1]

Thank you for writing this song - literally my favorite in the whole world right now - amazing

[@ianbygate9983]

your welcome ?

[@chimp_mcginn]

Well worth the wait. Little teasers of tracks but the whole album as a collective is outstanding. So good and on repeat now constantly.

[@paulrush9166]

Still gives me goose bumps every time :)

[@stevecrowe1489]

This is fantastic, you can really hear that Springsteen influence in the chorus

[@firedownbelow958]

Just finished giving the new album a once over, and this is the song I keep wanting to go back to..Hands down my favorite!

[@owen5468]

That chorus man

[@ianbygate9983]

me

[@beardynolando5787]

It’s official sleepwalkers is out and ready to be put on repeat!

[@goat2558]

Wonderful just wonderful. Fallon just keeps getting better and better

[@josejorgegranados661]

i mostly listen to metal and hardcore but how not to love fallon voice and lyrics

[@Jere.]

Can agree, punk is my thing but how could you not like this guy's stuff

[@Mantouvalos7]

Thank you for that Brian

[@alexjessop5330]

I love the ghostly voice

[@SilviaMarinescu]

Listening to this live was a highlight of this year - and yes, I know it's only March.

[@BallparkGuide]

I think there's a glitch with KZbin - I can only "Like" this one once!

[@mrpele8110]

Cant to hear this in Newcastle next month .

[@kitter100]

Me too ! Brilliant !

[@budgetingstrategies6240]

The bridge.

[@wonkabar23]

one of my favorite songs from the record

[@pzs3988]

Another masterpiece.

[@marcelchamorro6387]

This is probably my new favorite song

[@DTH199]

Today's my birthday AND Brian releases a new record, perfect day!!! Preordered this directly when it was announced ♡ btw this song is so awesome!!!

[@beardynolando5787]

Did you spend most of your life waitin' On a fairytale read between pages? Did you huddle up close to your boombox radio Is somebody waiting on the same song? And we sold our souls on the fantasies we found in records and black and white movies And I used to beg June to burn me alive, if that would get me anywhere but here Now Etta James, hit that symphony Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy And for most of my sad life I figured I was gonna die alone Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars Twenty long years away from your heart Til finally, FINALLY, my love is in my arms My love is in my arms And it was impossible to hold on to anything In my chest was a lonesome, growing cyclone I kept pictures tucked up into the rear view above to the sirens all lost in the ocean And all we wanted was absolutely everything Like foolish, hungry young lions I was lost and alone, a million light years from home It was nobody's fault but mine Now Etta James, hit that symphony Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy And for most of my sad life I figured I was gonna die alone Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars Twenty long years away from your heart But finally, FINALLY, my love is in my arms And was there a hole in your life? Did you kill to keep warm but somehow never quite satisfied? Do you feel like it's always time to go? And it's always wrong, and it's always off, and it's hard to know, which heart to hold Now do you lie to someone, is someone else, on your mind? Do you lie to someone with me on your mind? Now Etta James, hit that symphony Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy And for most of my sad life I figured I was gonna die alone Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars Twenty long years away from your heart Til finally, FINALLY, my love is in my arms My love is in my arms

[@dragon53777]

There's the end lyrics he sings I think "My love has come along..."

[@Emeraldheart1021]

IMO That last part should say: "Do you lie with someone with someone else on your mind Do you lie to someone with me on your mind" :-)

[@johannesschulten8954]

Curve

[@BassistBill1988]

I think my heart was just punched out of my chest

[@andrewshackleton3472]

One word ..class

[@maddawgnp]

“I used to beg June to burn me alive. If that would get me anywhere to you.” Paying honor to Johnny and June Carter Cash!

[@andy64ism]

Officially my favourite song in the past 12months 2nd is forget me not

[@laylachannel4439]

An absolute masterpiece.

[@TheWetKoala]

Legend ❤️

[@goldenageenthusiast]

This should be on Monster Ballads

[@jaimellamasdiez8336]

Una de sus mejores canciones, tanto con Gaslight Anthem como en solitario.

[@nickm1771]

This chorus fuckin kills me inside but i love this song its like that phrase about watchin a wreck but you cant look away.. It cuts deep. The dying alone part

[@lokiofthisworld]

Who ever thumbs downed this, shame on you! You have no soul.

[@bonpomtv]

start of this song is more like something from the Killers, All in All a very good album!

[@DivingDonut]

I dont fucking know how, but this album kinda hits deeper than the ones before. And the other ones hit deep. But this has something...just....fuck...

[@Rossstewart88]

Its outstanding mate, I cant stop listening to it, I think its his best work

[@kristygrim7168]

I think I'm in love haha 💘

[@ianbygate9983]

so am i

[@federicoperadotto]

Born romantic, stay romantic, die romantic 🖤🏴‍☠️🎩

[@jimmybraum942]

I can't place the song, but this connects "Elsie" to Sleepwalkers. It has the same sounding pre chorus, as though it's a sequel.

[@veloziraptor36]

Oh Brian...

[@nanuqoficial2402]

Tu música me inspira un chingo a vivir, somos colegas, gracias a ti tengo un proyecto de Folk/punk acústico llamado Nanuq.

[@Blitzrules240]

Song of the year 2018 nominee. Fucking breathtaking.

[@piagst]

Nice ..., very nice 👍

[@johnalsup1746]

sweet jesus

[@jonathanhamrick4128]

Have Mercy, even.

[@rebeccadaniels4234]

💃🔥💃🔥💃💋

[@yairfarias7489]

I love how this sounds a little bit like Joey that cover the horrible crowes did.

[@AQ-uy6dx]

Whoever Etta is I think I want to marry her

[@TheTruthiest]

You seriously don't know who she is? Go look up "at last" right now.

[@aprilscythes]

i always thought he was saying valerie lol

[@bryanmartin8336]

Bruce? Is that you?

[@mickjbrooks40]

Doesn't sound anything like Bruce

[@thatperson8426]

Teenage Dream. Who hears that!?

[@jmsjolly05]

Definitely agree it's horrible crowes like. Love it

[@shtty17]

Sure do! Love the horrible crowes version. I've heard Brian ghost writes and I like to think teenage dream may be his. Probably not but I just like to think in my ignorant little head

[@ianbygate9983]

me

[@ianbygate9983]

this isnot brian fallon ?

[@matthewdunn3078]
