[@erianersitetras7172]

Actually, it's Eric Clapton who brought me to Mk.gee. Can you believe that? Mr. Slowhand himself

[@iPicti]

Please don’t sell your soul once the industry realizes your gift!

[@Nico-mz9gq]

If he never did anything ever again, music would be forever changed but, oh boy, I cannot wait to hear what comes next. He’s truly special.

[@ricosuave69x]

Truly one of a kind. Mk.Gee and Dijon have just completely taken me, some of the best artists out there right now. Can't wait to see them get the attention they've always deserved.

[@teddyp7680]

being there for this was the most surreal experience, truly one of the greatest musical experiences of my life

[@sewerfruit5638]

2 days left for the album! lets goooo

[@anniematyi]

Where was it in Chicago?

[@plantman9120]

I’m discovering this guy today and I’m fucking losing it at how hard this is it’s incredible

[@thesardinasardina1761]

Eric Clapton brought me here sounds crazy but this guy's got it man it's so original and unique this is very beautiful music

[@caimoriarty9004]

It’s like Prince and The Police had a lil baby boy

[@Dontatmebruv]

Broooooo 👏🏼

[@Fedbo]

So lonely!

[@katielowen]

Lmao the police I’m dying 😂😂😂

[@AvengeXKing]

Dude I been saying this for months. At times I hear a young rod Stewart. It's breathtaking.

[@YoureNowOnTV]

100% 😀👍

[@Dontatmebruv]

This has to be one of the most beautiful things in existence

[@mikeholmes7021]

In my opinion this version is better than the studio release, the quietness of the guitar yet raw emotion in it is something that only you can bring to the table, and I can’t lie hearing Dijon in the background is really funny and adds some nice backup vocals

[@jadencantu9516]

kids 40 years from now are gonna find this and be like :0

[@midpupposIII]

this is the 80s for them

[@mattsabean]

i’ve watched this 1000 times and im still like :0

[@mariemondesir816]

His music takes me to another dimension. He's truly one of the best artists out there. He brings me much peace.

[@nayibdelarosa510]

I really like the aesthetics of this album, the mysteriousness of the lighting the moodiness of it all.

[@thedeadcanary]

Best artist I've found in a long time. Fell in love with this tune immediately.

[@Pikachu-o2j]

This video is a piece of heaven.

[@cholkymilkmirage4984]

this feels like something written from the 70s honestly. The 70s just had that magical good feeling music

[@ff-qc7qy]

sounds like fleetwood mac

[@cholkymilkmirage4984]

@@ff-qc7qy yesss. The writing and singing artist from that era.But using soundscape like the 80s. I love it.

[@jplusm]

If prince and the police had a baby

[@threezero4156]

this is actually a perfect song. One of the most moving performances I have ever seen in real life.

[@leraph3904]

What is it What strange feeling. Like the first time i found pink floyd..... I think this guy is important. It's a real deal

[@eficer04]

I've run this back 20 times already

[@sethroberts627]

This the best version for me

[@Darksoulsboy69]

I really hope he releases a live version. This is crazy

[@sethroberts627]

@@Darksoulsboy69lots of good stuff from these dudes. Sticking out

[@Dheeee]

Just being so immersed in the moment of music is so cool to me, and Mk.gee and Dijon just get it man my faves just keep killing it out here

[@fuckworkradio]

A masterclass in creating divine intervention at a concert

[@Dor199]

This is about to make me cry this is so good thank you Mr.Mk.gee

[@kyyyyyyyyyyle]

i watch this like every day

[@ramboyman1010]

my favorite guitar player right now

[@jadanirvanna]

this seems life altering

[@giftofstillness]

i just really wanna thank you for sharing your being. idk if you will read this, but.. there has always been only one band that i consider my favorite, as I enjoy the majority of their work (that doesn’t happen easily for me)…after 11+ years, I have now grown fond of another artist that I can confidently say is also my fave. so, thank you, mike. dearly.

[@albertovillegas1796]

I love when you do them live greatest sounds ever

[@jorgeskuf]

I knew the name because of Dijon but today I got this song on my discover weekly and I'm so late on checking out mk.gee God damn

[@chrismcallister9038]

Not late, just in time 😌

[@ampmvideotv]

@@chrismcallister9038 @jorgeskuf very similar to how I got here too. and it does feel like just the right time for me :)

[@cedarface808]

Was THIS close to buying a flight to Chicago just to see this. So glad I get at least one song here 🥹

[@germish9670]

I got like some kind of phil collins vibe that i really like a lot, but with that gritty guitar sound, very very nice

[@ThePromisedWLAN]

I'm reminded of Peter Gabriel's (Car) album with the unusual time signatures and breathy ambiance but flavored with American soul.

[@rj8575]

this show was so cinematic-come back to chi soon mk.gee!

[@indirect977]

I’m picking up on major Lindsey Buckingham inspiration! Standing on the shoulders of greats🙌🏻

[@PedrooFerroo]

Omg yeeeees, he reminds me of Lindsey aswell!!!

[@Tjoens]

Never thought I'd become one of these comments but please come to Europe this summer!!

[@arkansastravelour]

Keep going Michael, you're killing it 🍄

[@markb972]

When the live performance is better than the studio, you just know… 👌🙌

[@prod.german]

agreed, prefer this over the Spotify version

[@LeslieDugger]

He needs to redo the entire album at some point. its unfortunately poorly produced

Lyrics: Ry-lee just waits on Somebody to give her new light With the heaviest weight on A miracle to cut me slack So are you looking up? Are you asking why? 'Cause if you wanna go then, baby go wide Yeah, I can shift shapes but I can't deny Baby, we can put it all to rest just for one night What's keeping you fenced off? And who's got the power in your mind? How're you gonna waste it all? When somebody's playing to no one every night So are you looking up? Are you asking why? 'Cause if you wanna go then baby go wide And I can shift shapes but I can't deny Yeah, we can put it all to rest just for one night So are you looking up? Are you asking why? 'Cause if you wanna go then baby go wide Are you looking for somebody to put out your fire? We can put it all to rest just for one night So are you looking up? Are you asking why? 'Cause if you wanna go then baby go wide Baby I can shift shapes but I can't deny
