My Morning Jacket - Mercy Mercy Me & What’s Going On (Marvin Gaye Cover) Forest Hills, NY 9/11/2021

[@riverzen]

50 years later and these two songs are still immensely applicable to today. So many just can't hear the words.

[@lauriesuzanne8848]

So very well stated!

Blown away by how relevant these are for a modern audience

What do you mean ?

[@scottrobinson4931]

I was there and I still can’t listen to this enough! Best live band in the world!

[@Nickee_Sonicjinn]

I love, love, love Jim James's vocals and Bo's keyboards and their guitars and drums and everything. My old MMJ is singing Marvin Gaye? Wow, this is surreally fantastic! I can't even describe. It's just too gorgeous.

[@vidarlarsen748]

What a performance. That intro by Bo gives me goosebumps. The lights is unbelievable beautiful throughout these 13 minutes.

[@christ.8547]

one of the best ever...💙.

[@padre10gardens]

DUDE these guys just SLAY everything and every song. Just masters of their domain.

[@amymorse9266]

No words. Heartbreaking. 9/11/2021. That we lived in NYC - 9/11/2001 is sad. What an amazing tribute.

[@kellydownes3454]

The piano on this is a literal portal into the sound of longing inside my heart. I can feel everything about the moment I heard it, and the energy. Thank you so much. I have come back to this again and again when I need spiritual repose.

[@AntonyBHaya]

Mercy Mercy Me. Forever Marvin Gaye . Besth the besth

[@loucat2779]

Are you kidding me with this? This is truly a proper cover. Thought Jim might change it up a little. Respect, boys, this is gold!

[@ecoRfan]

I was at both nights of Forest Hills. It really felt like MMJ was back. I was hesitant about going to NY on the two decade anniversary of the tragedy, but this show proved just what humanity is capable of. They really gave us everything they had those two nights.

What was the tragedy?

@@dave2940 can see Towers of Light at the beginning I’m seeing MMJ doubleheader later this week in Philly 10/27-28/23. They might pull out some rare stuff like this but only they know.

[@andrewwolak4362]

Nothing short of incredible. One of the best MMJ shows

[@Stream_Engine]

Agreed!! Saw their opener in Charlotte so glad they live streamed this amazing show!

[@maxloads9207]

Church preach tabernacle… this show was legendary for sure. Being there for this especially on 9/11. music for the world.

I'd forgotten how astonishing this group are. A mystical rendition + ethereal lightshow. Absolute chills.

[@joebarriga-9945]

a great rendition of this classic song, it is so apropos now, as it was then by marvin. great singing, great music, awesome...they brought the house down..

[@michaeltait659]

Those 2 thumbs down has to be a mista5 good lord after hearing this my mind goes to different dimensions of bliss beautiful just beauty this is what we all need

[@wagsalot3103]

Your So Right ! Every time I listen to this I melt ! Jim’s doing his part bring love back . I’m grateful having gone to the first OBH in Riviera Maya 2014

[@arleco12]

I'm always surprised about people commenting on the amount of thumbs down. They don't exist for me.

[@LSUOdyssey]

i'm so glad i saw this live, the first time they did it on 12/30/17, what an incredible night and an unbelievable 3 night stand in Denver. One of my favorite songs ever and they did it so good....this is a lot more guitar heavy version than the one i witnessed but both were so good.

[@MrOopsjd]

The boys playing in my city, my borough! Dope. Queens rocks. MMJ rocks.

[@dikbozo]

2 of my fave Marvin Gaye songs played back to back by this very very good group is so perfect.

[@chemicalswithlove6904]

Like many others this is like a spiritual cleanse this is our choir to god this is going to church and being spoken the word of god just through music and vibration thank you so much to all the dudes but there’s just something about Jim’s voice his artistic aura is different level of existence thank you yours truly !.

[@arleco12]

Oh, man! Didn't expect this! A respecful rendition, but with a really nice touch of personalization. Beautiful.

[@michaelclark3195]

These guys are the best band I've seen at doing cover songs. Always amazing.

[@allinsonsherratt418]

Wow, did not expect this absolutely beautiful performance - only heard one of their songs before as it was rock😂 with a choir, 😅 Will check out all thir other covers❤

[@Clarkwork]

Best live band out there

[@TheNancypoo]

This is amazing......

[@jmeighan1219]

I was at this concert, this was amazing, as every song is with this band. First concert since getting shutdown.

[@ecoRfan]

Night 1 MMJ at FH was my first show back since shutdown. Went both nights. Concert event of the year. That 2 night event was Jacket at their greatest.

[@justfetus]

bless you for your uploads. an unforgettable night.

[@gaysalisbury2011]

Beautiful rendition of a beautiful song

[@riderflyer]

"Golden" by MMJ is one of my favorite songs...and hearing Marvin Gaye's best two songs performed by these guys...well sitting here singing to my border collie along with this song...she knows too I can't sing; but what the hell; how can you not?

What a wonderfull interprétation. Wish you will make a concert in France 🇫🇷 2023 🤲🤲🤲🤲

[@robertoseveno]

Beautiful moment

[@pudma56]

This is stunning. They're playing Milwaukee in February. I was told their style was different some currently and it is in a positive way. I'm diggin' everything I've heard over the last few weeks which is of course talk shows and KZbin.

[@MrTonos10]

Okonokos……still my favorite MMJ album and best version of their style. Spotify it 🥰 and buy a February ticket!

[@bcm5pointer]

I flew to NY from Kansas City to be at this show (because I was so bummed about Bonnaroo being canceled the week before). This is the only band in the world I’d make a trip like that for. If Milwaukee is local to you; go! I’ve seen them 7 times and have never left disappointed!

[@SybilBrown-om2qp]

[@chriszzz6672]

Amazing version of both songs. Can you give more than 5 out of 5 stars? It's even more spectacular in person. Hopefully they'll include this in their setlist the next time I see them live. What I want to know is why I never hear MMJ on the radio??!!

[@DBurns0941]

@10:38 i think someone got an email or teams chat. Gets me everytime I listen to this while on my computer.

[@Stream_Engine]

Is there something wrong with the audio at that moment? I don’t notice anything

[@DBurns0941]

@@Stream_Engine I just hear a small "bing", but no complaints at all man. Thank you for sharing this, it is sounds great.

Does anyone know what vinyl or cd these songs are on by My Morning Jackets?

They haven’t recorded these covers (that I’m aware of). I’ve got all but 2 of their albums on vinyl

So yeah I was just listening to the original.. searched KZbin for MMJ
