Jimmy Eat World | Phoenix Sessions: Clarity (Live)

[@matthewwinthrop3278]

I can see why this is Mark Hoppus’ favorite JEW album and why he raves about it so much.

[@0xKruzr]

because Mark is a fuckin BOSS and real recognizes real

Clarity is hands down a masterpiece from start to finish. An album I simply can not get tired of.

Just press play. All killer. No filler.

[@horror_punk_gamer9932]

YES, DEFINITELY A MASTERPIECE, im 46yrs old, got CLARITY upon release while in 20's & its still in my playlist. AWESOME to see em play it in its entirety (i do enjoy ther other CDs BUT this is really fukkin special on whole nother level)

Yes! I'm glad somebody said it!

Tom should've continued to sing a couple songs per album through the years instead of dropping lead entirely

I was buying a car in 2002. I had to get an appraisal on my current car for a trade in. This CD played in my car. While the dealership employee came around, they heard "Just Watch the Fireworks" and said "who is this? it's great!". Seeing someone else appreciate, for the first time, the song that you've loved and heard a thousand times, is strange, fun, and I'd recommend it to everyone. I got to do it with this album.

Today is 12.23… to commemorate I’m listening to the band whose music influenced my walk this year (2024) all day. To the countless hours this concert alone has joined me as I researched and wrote my novel has been insurmountable and shout out to the podcast that inspired my musical pursuits. I am probably just some crazy fan to you,this band,but I can’t get over how magical my year has been and I have you guys to thank for all of it and then some!! My quest for change began with 555 in 2019. Then Place Your Debts challenged those changes. Took notes throughout your podcast episodes & Phoenix sessions, specifically, Clarity and Futures, helped me to see a way forward. Always remember if you end up reading this and I am inevitably not blocked lol that you guys saved a woman’s life who nearly took her own. You helped me see that there was a spark inside of me that needed recognition.

Clarity is nothing short of a masterpiece. Pure gold. And to think that they were only in their early twenties when these songs were created blows my mind. Love you Jimmy Eat World. Always have. Always will.

I got pretty emotional watching this. I went to Italy when I was 16 with my nonno. We visited his hometown for 3 weeks when he was 86. I had an Sony minidisc player and this was the only album I had loaded for 3 weeks. I listened to it on repeat since I was too young and stupid to embrace the language and spent alot of time indoors.However, It reminds me of happy times when I was with my grandfather. I am now 37 and this album always stays close to my heart.

[@StewieEatWorld]

The last 10 minutes of this are legendary. Love it.
