Matthew Good - Non Populus (Live at the Edge)

Matthew Good plays a live Sugar Beach Session at the 102.1 the Edge studio.

[@pottermk]

This is one of the most beautiful performances I've ever heard. Sheer bliss.

[@aaronst.pierre3080]

I saw the Avalanche tour. Hands down the best concert Ive seen to date.

[@jaredm9999]

I come back to this all the time. One of my favorite Matthew Good songs, with an amazing performance. Can't get enough of this.

[@mortalangyl]

SUCH an artist...i wish more people in the US would get a clue and listen to Matt Good...i've been a serious fan of Matt Good for years now he is just amazing

[@aaronst.pierre3080]

He doesn't want that. At the height of his career he turned away from that future. Nothing can take away from his greatness though.

[@chrisfraser8619]

I can say from seeing Matt Good and meeting him more then once. I was blessed.

[@jerrymcgaghey]

I can’t believe this is 12 years old! RIP to Dave Bookman, aka Bookie, standing in the back of the room. Miss that guy!

[@glenboehm9409]

They sound tight as f*ck. "Might have rubbed you the wrong way, but thats all over now." Kicks my ass each and every time I hear it.

[@travispoettcker1078]

Matt and the people he chooses to play with convey such raw emotion and feeling. This is what music is supposed to feel like.

[@briangenack9675]

This gets better every time I hear it. Even better to watch everyone play together.

[@chrisfraser8619]

Matthew is an extremely talented artist. Can’t wait to see him in Halifax soon.

[@BirchWind]

Ugh. I saw this live when he came to our city in November, it was so haunting and beautiful it totally killed me. Was just so... moving.

[@rolandcopittus]

man I love his music so much.

[@DanCantSleep]

Song gives me goosebumps ever time.

[@dsxa918]

I'm 'shy' out of respect sometimes but a song like this is a perfect demonstration, to sing along with - if I can do it 'honestly' to the original meaning of Matt's vocal performance, I know I'm warmed up. He's a truly impressive singer

[@Borisloveshismusic]

Lights of endangered species is one of the best album's ever to come out of Vancouver, BC, Simply brilliant.

[@jordantaylor5694]

My favorite.

[@infobaseworks2401]

Warm, comforting and elegant

[@SashaNYC00]

SO good. Been following MGB/Matt since early 90s. Always amazing and emotional.

[@cementer4life]

Goosebumps. Everytime

[@Eric666x]

I can't believe there are 4 people not liking this. I can't get enough of this song...

[@aaronst.pierre3080]

Probably fans of his early work. This is a good song, no doubt but he sort of changed his whole sound with Hospital music. I thought Vancouver was his wodst album with White light rock and roll but also Im happy Matt finally feels better in his personal life. Some of that same mystery of age and development is shared by most great bands and musicians. From the Rolling stones, U2 and Pearl Jam for examples. I think you peak, and then go to a different place. Maybe a person place, self refkection, personal growth, who knows but the sound changes.

[@williamtsol636]

Total soul music !! The band and the music are a gift to the spirit of love and life ! Thank you !

[@cyreetalarson3742]

he is very talented..been listening to him since 93.

[@anonymousman999]

The best part of this video in my opinion, is just how much fun the band is having playing.

[@jamiedoucette2777]

This is such a phenomenal version.

[@megatravelmaniac]

They asked Matt.....Name one song that defines you more than any other one. Guess which one he said. And he was right.

[@tooad]

Matthew Good? his name shoud be Matthew Fuckin Awesome

[@davidwilliams4837]

Damned straight.

[@thefuppy]

The best thing that Matt Good has ever done.

[@House.Of.Keeping]

Fantastic song already, but this live performance just sent chills down my spine, Good & the band just crippled my senses with that amazing performance !!!

[@christopherroth86]

Pure Bliss. All 9 minutes of pure bliss...

[@toddiowarner3238]

The journey of Matt and the boys,love you guys thank you.

[@AI-uh5ix]

I've seen him 7 times. some of the shows are the best I've ever seen and some are the worst. I believe it's a reflection of the heart put into this music. if he is feeling his songs and finds that place in his heart that inspired them his music can bring you to tears. when he plays the shows as a job it feels less personal then listening to a cd. I love Matt good and always will. I don't think every night you can expect a performance like this. when it happens it's magical. thank you for your music Matt. cheers

[@lesryderful]

Anton Ihl sucks to catch a passionate genius on a bad night

[@Spudst3r]

Holy crap that was good. Wow, just wow.

[@jobajoba444]

saw this live in Victoria :) it was amazing!!!

[@kevinmackay2663]

Great song! Nice to see all 5 in the band play so tight in unison!

[@Nevermind900426]

the jam in this song is freaking amazing

[@christopherroth86]

Wow....just wow Makes me miss Bluesfest 2008 with Matt :)

[@gregger29]

This tune plays at the start AND at the end of each of my Matt Good listening sessions...so complex and raw at the same time...maybe my favourite live MG

[@ellyshanicholson7958]

LOVE THIS

[@darrensoldan5972]

Great song! Really enjoy the guitar and piano in this one! 👍 💯

[@JJ-bf6dx]

His best song. No doubt.

[@FoxJayden]

So hard to pick just one! I hear a little bit of Champions of Nothing in it (another great one by him). If you want another deep epic like this, give a listen to Blue Skies Over Bad Lands. One of his best works!

[@ericthauvette2270]

I can't get enough of this song and Matt Good... I now live in Australia and I can't find anything else that will satisfy my urge for good music as much as Matt's music. Thank you Matthew Good for keeping me alive in Australia.

[@kaaelo0]

that statement about urge for good music is the exact description of what his music is all about. It's not for everyone probably, but for some it hits the deepest chambers of soul.

[@gibsalisbury]

Love this tune.Saw him play this live with my daughter.

[@destined4failure]

cool to see Tony's rigging up close. Also awesome seeing Matt and Ian working together again.

[@MarChav]

Wonderful

[@shmaak]

Matthew Good has the most serene voice ❤

[@rayc644]

Great live performance of an amazing song!

[@mikeg46253]

amazing song, love the buildup at the end!

[@warnelivesey]

Very tasty performance.

[@mfnl]

matthew good, respect pour ce grand créateur

[@Oscarbrash]

Beautiful!!!!

[@joelmcneney5366]

Let it be unto you

[@Mike-yd1xd]

So very good.

[@noahsidel38]

Brilliant.

[@ianbtv]

Obviously one person has no appreciation for good music. What a fantastic album - probably some of his best yet. Great live show with the current band.

[@lovebledhate]

pure heaven...

[@SONGABUNDANCE128]

BRILLIANT!

[@ToolD69]

amazing! that is all

[@notwillywonka4111]

💗

[@brainer161]

Ian Browne on Drums! Love it!

[@ImaMonaKnight]

Fantastic.. x

[@michelletron]

One word: Wow.

[@Holbrook_JM]

This guitarist is by far the best since Dave Genn

[@GabrielAcorn]

Don't get me wrong I loved original MGB but Matt's played with some amazing guitarists since Dave

[@pingponghappytime]

Whoa whoa just hold the friggin phone dudes. Dave Genn was the best thing that ever happened to Matt. Dave Genn wasn't just a guitar player, he co produced with Livesey and made all those earlier songs so great. Yes, Matt was dealing with mental health issues but losing Genn was the beginning of the end. Dave tried to stay, but Matt burned that bridge. I'm surprised to see Ian back playing with him. Nice song though

[@danford7727]

Anyone know who this guitarist is? His sound is incredible, think that's a Marshall JTM-45, anyone know for sure?

[@scarfade1635]

@@pingponghappytimeand what has he done for 54-40? nothing

[@pingponghappytime]

Who is that, Rod Bruno?

[@ImaMonaKnight]

I Never Forget 😰💔

[@intothepavement0214]

perfect.

[@marlonoreilly]

Holy crap Matt?! Great song man but I love the guitar solo! Bring back the guitar. Killer sound.

[@thoops6]

@thatCanadiangrrrl The entire band had like a week to rehearse the majority of the songs for the tour! Impressive on all accounts!

[@derekfehr6768]

Well played boys 🤘🤘🤘

[@ImaMonaKnight]

Thanks💎💘

[@darrendembicki3041]

Wow. Was that Ian on drums?

[@taylornepoosechannel8535]

Matthew Good performs non Populus at the 10.21 the edge

[@mtlewis3722]

This is amazing song, but they need Stewart Cameron back on lead guitar. He made the live performances.

[@thatCanadiangrrrl]

DO ya all know that IAN had to learn EVERYTHING in just a couple of weeks before heading out on the CDN tour?! Such a talent! ...All of them of course :)

[@kevinodonnell7435]

It doesn't matter what camera angle they have, all members and the EDGE staff are totally engulfed, f'in (enter adjective)

[@destined4failure]

Nice comment Dong69 - only two months to get to the party. By the way, that's a badass handle you got there. Having 69 in your name implies that you are both a giver AND receiver. You must have been very popular in choir.

[@lesryderful]

U need that drummer back

[@ImaMonaKnight]

💯❤🎁

[@CrowScreech]

Joel's looking pretty serious behind the board there, at least till near the end.

[@XX-bo5pb]

what year was this performance?

[@ImaMonaKnight]

💎💘💎💘💎💘💎💘

[@lesryderful]

I like this band better than the schleps he rolls with now

[@yoshiki7757]

This comment seems kind of goofy since he still records and tours with most of the same people... and who the fuck is upvoting it?

[@ImaMonaKnight]

Weird I live in Canada..am not aloud to say my home ...

[@pallaster1]

da da.. da da.. da da... du!? Em7trh please!! It me! the boy who could explode!! Mr. hat is me too!! Shy!

[@mtlewis3722]

I miss Stewart Cameron. Matthew Good is amazing, but Cameron is what really made him fun to watch

[@ImaMonaKnight]

💎💘

[@Yoshiki03]

@KimJong69 you're

[@ImaMonaKnight]

Told Ya..I Marry Matt 💯❤🎁

[@ImaMonaKnight]

Sociopath in our obumabush clintions ..love ya🖖😤

[@FredBishopMusic]

is that the drummer from the original band?

[@doubleitp]

yep!

[@claytonmcgovern7638]

I know.

[@Grumpeljism]

thats Ian Browne original MGB drummer.

[@aaronst.pierre3080]

I got to see him in Ottawa, the Deers opened for him at the NAC. Brilliant!

[@williamschulz6792]

6:10

[@Bacoprah]

Hey Edge people, maybe turn the heat on or something so Matt and the band don't have to play with their parkas on ffs. Awesome performance as always.

[@geeyore7726]

I think the fans are OUTside

[@yoshiki7757]

Yeah... I'm not sure if you realized they literally open up that side of the building for these types of shows and are actually outside.

[@LiamDTurner]

500th? View? 🤘

[@ImaMonaKnight]

July 4 Th nukes🖖🤕🤒

[@rcsteward]

Is it just me or does the drummer look like the former MGB drummer Ian Browne?

[@GabrielAcorn]

Yeah, its Ian.

[@MsPotatobag]

matt's dancing about is great fun

[@pleasureincontempt3645]

WTF?! This song is wonderful instrumental; And Matt could be known as one of the most beautiful songwriters on earth. Why is he fake strumming at the denouement?
