John Grant - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@Trawizz1]

Saw him about 10 years ago at a festival. I was not ready for him back then, and did not appreciate him, as I should. I started listening to him last year, and I am seeing him this saturday, in a small venue. I look so much forward to it! He really is one of the biggest artists of our time.

John is so amazing, I mean you could absolutely tell that he's rugged, he went through a lot of difficult times, he went through hell in his life and he survived. His life wasn't perfect. He messed up in the past, he sleeps around and he parties a lot to the point of self destruction. Then, one day he decided to act and change his life for the better. He's definitely a good role model for all of us. We could really learn a lesson from him; that we have the control to change our life for the better. I hope that he's happy now and found his peace in life. On a side note, I wanna hug John because he went through so much, man. Totally off-topic but that lady is so nice, she's so warm and amazing it's like she genuinely cares. That's what we call an amazing interviewer!

[@juliannazdunich7235]

his songs speak to my soul. and his kindness too, even when wrapped in righteous fury or despair.

Wonderful performance. Love Grant's voice and lyrics. Also a great (and very graceful) interview by Cheryl.

[@OFishAl]

Literally discovering this today. It’s 6 years old and yet totally timeless and relevant in 2022. Love KEXP, thank you for being the vehicle for me discovering Mr John Grant. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@jeffjames9002]

I love john grant, great session....the interviewer is really a lovely person, what a passionate and compassionate person. We need more of her!!! 🌸🙏🏼🤟🏽

[@rickmorris9142]

I just discovered John through his work with Asgier. So glad to have found such a wonderful songwriter with the voice of an angel.

[@dab.studios.2023]

I saw him in Concert and met him personally in the street, his music is all inspiring and very special will never forget it. A LEGEND IS BORN.

[@nt559]

A deep soul and a powerful voice, great artist.

[@thaumatology]

love what he has to say about the songwriting process - trust your struggle

[@ustrew1]

Love this man.

[@maurowoody8205]

I love how he channels so many different feelings, so many different sounds. I can totally hear Rick Wright's lovely piano lines through this; nice nod to 70's singer-songwriter/prog rock. John Grant forevs!

[@dannyedwards142]

I love John Grant far far far far too much 😀😀😀

[@maxt7588]

[@marceloallasino]

I love you John.

[@Vital62nd]

Джон, благодарю. Пишу на русском, так как вы поете и, как я понял, изучали его. Узнал о вас благодаря выпуску Аэростата Бориса Гребенщикова. Ваша новая вещь Love is magic просто покорила меня!

[@innovativeprogramschool7979]

Where Dreams Go To Die reminds me of Across The Universe. John's an excellent songwriter.

[@grungesoundsgood]

Both John's, Lennon and Grant! fine fine songwriters

[@EmeriikkaT]

[@PodOfHeat]

Cheryl totally fancies that guy! 😍

[@jegjessing]

I simply cannot get the name of Chris... something and the other. They are all fantastic, he is just a bit more :-) what is is last name? What else has he been involved with? And don't get me wrong.. Yes I got to this because I adore John :-) These are real musicians, real poets and reel people. Love it

[@alvaroatorresa]

Ries y lloras. Eso solo lo logra un genio absoluto como él.

I ❤ John Grant

[@melindaalexander5778]

I love you john grant artist

[@photoholic_paras1948]

When I woke up today, the air was very strange I couldn't feel my skin and there was evil in my bones I tried to speak but found that I didn't have a voice It was a prison like the one you would find in the twilight zone And I feel just like Sigourney Weaver When she had to kill those aliens And one guy tried to get them back to the earth And she couldn't believe her ears So I was taken or I went towards what was west Where the ground was dead and struck out at the giant sky The sky was black and filled with tiny silver holes And it was there with a frightened voice that I began to cry out loud I feel just like Winona Ryder In that movie about vampires And she couldn't get that accent right Neither could that other guy And I feel just like I am on Jupiter The one that looks like rainbow sherbet But it doesn't lend itself to life And I haven't finished yet

[@tylerwhitney3443]

[@PMO269]

[@filipestudioenk]

Capo John Grant

[@WhiteDove73-888]

I watch Alien last night!

[@stevencrowe2450]

I feel just like Wynona Ryder In that movie about vampires And she couldn't get that accent right And neither could that other guy I have no clue what these lyrics mean in the context of this song, but I love them nonetheless.

[@VoxJ]

Usually I skip the talking...

[@McNoogletheSpamLord]

I know right? The guy is interesting, articulate, and his off-the-cuff humour is top fucking notch.

[@timjamesd]

Modern day Billy Joel

[@metalqueen17]

Its very upsetting that John is gay... All jokes aside, he's effing stellar (outer space, see what I did there?) and so is this entire performance 👌 A job well done by all involved

[@october13ish]

Nina Simone. I see my light come shining, from the west down to the east. Any day now. Any day now. I shall be released.

[@hokulealinda]

XOXooxo pot·pour·ri :-) WOW WOW WOW 🌹 🌹 🌹

[@tomlind861]

Guitarist kind of looked like a young Woody Allen.

[@mattmccann8805]

Billy Joel wants his songs back.
