If someone were to ask me "Who is Clyde Lawrence?", I would guide them to this video. His vocals, swagger and stage presence, tickling the fuck out of the ivories and songwriting are all on display here. Michael Karsh on the bass killing it, as well. Another all around amazing Lawrence performance.

[@hawkrider88]

Totally agree! And the bass and horn section are complimenting one another so well. Everyone just KIILLING!!!

[@spencergellsworth]

this song got me into Lawrence like a rabbit falling down to Wonderland. Still my favorite one

[@aqertis4075]

Just so, so good. When Clyde switches to the piano it's like magic

[@joeyk2604]

This groove is FAAAAAAAAAAT WOW

[@josephfrank3948]

I love that quick switch to the piano! It's so refreshing.

[@lawrencetheband]

most exercise i've gotten during a show in years

[@samfarquhar1829]

Their most underrated song - their best live performance video on KZbin too

[@joesantiago9062]

[@DrewGiovannoli]

Dream Show: Lawrence, Lake Street Dive, St Paul in the Broken Bones, Vulfpeck. Anybody want to join?

[@andie4464]

[@maxmichelsen2707]

Owh yes, as long as vulfpeck is there. And don’t forget Here Come The Mummies!! I recommend you checking that out!

[@akualezlihope7301]

This takes me back to some great jazz funk and brings it all forward! deliciousness!

[@Holygiant]

Bass fill at 2:00 ... talk about phrasing, god damn. I have never heard a more perfect spot for a fill that still feels so natural.

[@maddock22]

ah.... yeah. that was tasty.

[@Cados52]

Sooo tasty

[@SonicAlchemy13]

Michael Karsh is a name you're going to hear associated with amazing bass players in the near future, that was indeed tasty as Thrifty rainbow shebet. Best bass player I've heard in a band since P-Nut of 311.

[@elithewholeshebang]

Love this recognition!!!! I'm noticing his playing more and more♡

[@alexaprice8522]

I don't know so I won't keep you close as you can be [Verse 2] When I'm alone It's fruits and veggies Orange you so glad that I had you to write about? Red is the rose And white is the lily I'm a melon cauliflower Honeydew you feel me now? [Chorus 2] Woe is me Woe is me An apple every day won't cure my insecurity Woe is me Are you my friend or enemy? I don't know so I won't keep you close as you can be [Chorus 3] Woe is me Woe is me Who is it that you have been Something I-N-G Woe is me Are you my friend or enemy? I don't know so I won't keep you close as you can be [Chorus 4] Woe is me Woe is me And no amount of idioms Is going to ever set me free Woe is me Are you my friend or enemy? And I don't know so I won't keep you close as you can be [Outro] I keep you close as you can be Ooh Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah As close as you can be My friend or enemy Ooh Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

[@courtneyknerr7989]

Clyde sounds awesome on the grand!!

[@DaveSMathews]

[@pangerankucin6]

Wohooo... It's so relaxing!

[@michaelschatka4112]

Beautiful ✌🏻 Greetings from Hannover, Germany (sah you live with Bernhoft!)

[@iroulis]

Gracie needs a pedal on her mic for volume and effects, at least distortion, for the bridge of I'm Confident I'm Insecure.

[@nitinsampathi]

Love this one! Can't wait to see ya'll live!! Although I do think the drums need a bit more swing, especially on the hi-hats. Just a little bounce!

[@lynette599]

I don't know how all the other guys in the band manage not to fall in love with Gracie when working so closely with her...sorry, just a thought that keeps crossing my mind whenever I see her perform.

[@stephaniebartles1133]

I am new to your music and I love it. I think I saw your name is Grace? (The female singer) i see your story in your eyes and you are so strong queen! ❤

[@ArizonaMakingLeight]

Golden rose to Lawrence Middle East peace Emirates 2020 ... ] Future Queen of England seems to have only been pregnant 2-7 weeks after that near lighning strike - OH WOE IS ME ... and who is their that any mere human being is something you intrigue ... no single mean is ever gunna set you free ....

[@noahdavidson]

This is entirely too funky

[@cbomb002]

Louie Zong anyone?

[@ArizonaMakingLeight]

COMEDY Version - "Probably Up" (L Catholic Throw Up L #Craxy/crazy lazy child eatea-tin-church murdering, defrauding families ... CHURCH : ... BURN AND THROW UP! ... FOLLOW Me UP! ... follow me up - (it's a Viking song ... CHURCH, Pope X throw up!)

[@ynotlaz]

I absolutely love these guys but I have to be honest, the sooner we realize that Grace should be the lead singer on 90% of the stuff the sooner this band will get to the next level. It's just the way the business is and she's the better singer no offense.

[@itsdaffxter]

doubt

[@tjagopeet6240]

Depends on the songs, i mean they both have golden pipes, just their voices suit different songs

[@d.c.o.7544]

I think his is actually underrated and occasionally she gets super-nasally, but I still stan for them big time. Great live as well.

[@SonicAlchemy13]

It is inevitable that Gracie will have her side/solo projects and her own identity in the business but Lawrence isn't Lawrence without their dual vocals and the chemistry it creates. It's an integral part of their sound and I don't think it needs to be fixed. I think they both get their fair amount of time to shine and do it well.
