“Life Is” - Jessica Pratt (LIVE on The Late Show)

[@scrappz]

Wonderful track - and respect to the sound team at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert for honoring the nuances of a truly delicate voice.

[@johnnym5093]

I can’t even comprehend how good this song is. Velvet underground vibes. What an incredibly talented artist.

[@ValentinoPuig-1993]

Best album of the year and up there with my favorite records of all time.

[@amycurtis4641]

So happy her music is getting out there! An incredible singer/songwriter ✨️

[@MartinCellarDJ]

I've listened to this twelve times this morning and it's only 08h17. I'm completely smitten. Just such a beautiful song.

[@Jack.Strait]

Very relatable. I listened to her new album four times in a row the day I bought it

[@a_bode1]

What a voice! I must listen to her album

[@JennetteMcEntire]

This performance was so beautiful

[@jordankingnz]

Album of the year. Hands down. Can't stop listening (and don't want to stop listening).

[@laurence2174]

Such a gorgeous album, sounds at once lost in time and of its time, particularly once you sink deep into the lyrics. I hope beyond hope she’s able to tour the record in Australia!

[@Jack.Strait]

Here In The Pitch is my AOTY. Love her music

[@WhiskersInc]

This is the best album of the year. Everyone must go listen! ❤

[@MartinCellarDJ]

Ok,I'll do exactly that right now!!

[@radiophodity]

Must I? Forceful presentation of your subjective position, anchored by an inarticulate emoticon, will not have the desired effect... unless you are attempting to drive people away

[@scully47]

Settle down, Jessica.

One of the most contrived and pompously ridiculous comments out there. Settle down there, Karen. 🤣🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🙄

Song makes me cry. I’m glad good art is still being made out there in the pockets between popular music.

[@deadpoet50]

What a beautiful voice. I didn’t know about her till I saw a comment in The New Yorker. True what they wrote: a unique voice.. Wishing you much success in your career 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@bayerische2011]

Thanks so much for giving her a national platform!

[@willchristopher1899]

Rarely does the music artist at the end of the show grab my attention ... Jessica certainly did. Truly wonderful.

[@Torin_by_the_Ocean]

Amazing album. Very melodic. Love it. Her music is amazing.

[@paulespinal2602]

Love me some Jessica Pratt. Excellent sound, wonderful album.

Wow! Absolutely love this! Can’t wait to hear more from Jessica Pratt! 🎧🎧🎧

[@ARGYLLE_IS_NOWHERE]

That was beautiful! ❤🎵🥰

[@lazarus533]

Beautiful music! I love her new album! ❤

[@horaciotorruco]

Finally receiving the recognition she deserves. I've been a fan of her since her first album, and this album feels like the culmination of someone searching for his own sound. The best record of 2024.

[@beautifulfamily1834]

and that first album was a lifechanger as well. she's been a stand by the whole time. So cool to see her get her flowers

[@bookbwitched6823]

Fell in love with this singer. Kinda like a voice I know but it's new too. Loved this. Soul Soother.

[@matthewjkhill6657]

That was really beautiful

[@elfpower8300]

A coupla weeks ago I attended a Pratt show in Vancouver and got a free sauna!

[@OfTheGaps]

This scratches the same itch for me as Cotton Jones' "Tall Hours in the Glowstream". Lovely vintage sound.

[@corinne_vintage]

That is a beautiful song.

[@michaelbrockman5742]

You can catch her live in Golden Gate Park at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass festival, a free 3 day event from October 4-6. The complete schedule of who is performing and when will be available on the website in September.

[@angelwolff90]

It's 1967 and I'm in a Dream😊

[@markmagallanes9128]

My buddy was roommates with her (about 20 years ago), we'd go out to Mexican food all the time. She could barely play the guitar at the time...

[@3V1L5H0073R]

lol that is awesome! ya got any pics or vids from that period?

[@aaronsiegel2568]

is this about getting mexican food or you just being a dick?

[@austins.2495]

That’s rad. Crazy how things change and develop

[@aroback]

Great performance!

[@ShroudedLion]

Absolutely outstanding!!! ❤❤❤

[@arturomontilla5073]

It´s a round record pound per pound. In another league. Music and the hearing sense.

[@marmalade94110]

She is magic. 100 percent.

[@ocampobianca]

absolute legend!

[@MarkGooflop]

Can’t wait to see her next month in Atlanta!

[@skagirlcourt]

Wow first time watching her perform live. So excited to catch her at Pitchfork

[@HappyLife693]

What year is this, 1962? I love it! The instrumental, intonation of her voice, and the minimal but perfect drums.

[@nessa-878]

Beautiful

[@lazyperfectionist1]

Son of a gun. I was really _furious_ when they started performing. I calmed down, _instantly._ This song. _This_ is the proverbial song that sooths the savage beast.

[@Tamaraxia]

[@georgiarn3915]

Please put Samantha Fish on! She is huge on the Blues Rock scene and has been on Slash's SERPENT tour, Eric Clapton's Crossroads festival, is seen every year at Jazz fest and is opening for the Rolling Stones this month! She is a bonafide Star that deserves more TV exposure!

[@stevehorst1712]

Thank you for recommending her. I will give Samantha Fish a listen to now. You sound like you know what you're talking about. 😊 I wasn't familiar with her. So many cookies in the aisles these days. Which is good! 🎶👍❤

[@stevehorst1712]

You were certainly right about Samantha Fish. I just sampled a few of her videos. She's the real deal! You gave her a new fan. Some guitar! Wow!

[@georgiarn3915]

@@stevehorst1712 there are a handful of good female blues guitarists, but Samantha is by far my favorite. She blends so many different genes of music, weaving them into a musical tapestry. Each album is a different thread, they each have a unique flavor. From Motown, Americana, Rock and Blues, Samantha does it all... And Well! She is also one of the best live performers out there. She is always on the road touring.Enjoy!

[@cindyo6298]

I would love to see her live

Nice change up to the bridge she splits off from the back up vocal

[@terelljervis7219]

The music sounds a lot like "Guess I'm Duub." Written by Brian Wilson and performed by Glenn Campbell. However, it's lovely song.

[@daveman15]

Definitely some "Pet Sounds" vibes in the opening passage.

[@molepup]

damn that guy on acoustic is HOT

[@pistachoatomico]

Is this really live? Why does it sound as if they were using 'Don't Worry Baby' by The Beach Boys as a backing track?

[@elfpower8300]

Is this rhetorical?

Can't even understand the lyrics lol

[@BalletRosesOfficial]

Life is, it's never what you think it's for And I can't seem to set it off And lately I've been insecure The chances of a lifetime might be hiding their tricks up my sleeve Used to be the greatest now I see Time is time and time and time again And what would you say if you can't get out of here? Time is time and time and time again To make your escape you've captured the captor's fear Cause I can feel my luck has turned it all around And when you've fallen out, get both feet on the ground The curses you keep won't follow you now And so I try to be myself, it's the same as always I get tricked up And each and every time it takes me away I'm often livin' on just to be outside these walls again It's the age of what's to come and baby you're on Time is time and time and time again Time is time and time and time again (Time is time and time and time again) (Time is time and time and time again)

[@BalletRosesOfficial]

Stop complaining, open your heart, and really listen.

[@poromakkara6097]

Saw her perform on Colbert on Australian TV. Beautiful song but could not make out the words at all. Had to come on KZbin because the TV captioning was so wacky, I was pretty sure she wasn't singing about Chris Minns, ET and Celine Dion! Well done Jessica, hope you get the recognition you deserve.

[@stevehorst1712]

​@@BalletRosesOfficial Way to go girl! Some people are just imbisiles. Thanks for her lyrics to shut him up.

Sorry this sucks.

[@moondude-v3x]

Dude you can't carry a tune to save your life and you're saying an artist who just released her fourth album with her own songs and touring sucks lmao

[@sanfordcurtis8242]

Sorry, but you don’t have an 8.8/10 from Pitchfork 👌🏻💁🏼‍♂️

[@asnormal1362]

Pratts song had a nice melody but I'm afraid I don't care for singers who so poorly enunciate the lyrics that they cannot be understood (even by those who are native to the language). I don't know if it's lack of her confidence in the lyrics? What I do know is that it robs the audience of the soul of the song. Sure, you can turn on captions but really, do you want to have to do that? I would hope the musician choses to deliver the whole of their creation. JMHO

[@mlose50]

Not impressed.
