6 years later..... Still touches me the same. Timeless

[@allisons6910]

Aw, just like my BSoA leader

[@-__-Big.Cauc-Asian.-__-]

I'm from Flint Michigan and this song is so true.

[@whereswaldo5740]

Yeah. It’d be funnier if it wasn’t true.

[@JadeAkelaONeal]

BRO im fuckin dying 🤣🤣🤣

[@michaelgapple1894]

Flint. Too effing true. Fantastic. 💋🍎❤️🍺🥃🎼🌿😉

Epic comment

[@bsmith483]

Where the hell has this guy been?! This is fukin brilliant?!

[@96driver]

Right? I just discovered him a couple months ago.

[@47hammer]

Brian he has been right here. Where have you been??

[@PavelDGromnic]

There's so much talent out there. You have to be young and hip to really see some of it. Straight life, working your eight hours, and a partner and kids kills it. You really need the chance to move around, get high and enjoy life. Pokey is sure something. The video for Pokey's Silent Movie will bring you to tears if you can still do that.

[@bsmith483]

@@PavelDGromnic Man isn't that the TRUTH!!! The straight life is the kiss of death for creativity.

[@PavelDGromnic]

@@bsmith483 There's a book I've been looking for by ,I think , Cyril Connolly. The title is Domesticity is the Enemy of Promise. It was written in the 30s or 40s. He knew.

[@colt6566]

The old feel of this music really makes 2021 bearable im glad this style is making somewhat of a resurgence

[@cliffboule8395]

Ive seen Pokey LaFarge live. It was one of the happiest shows I’ve been to. Go see them! They are, he is, a gem!

[@marcuswells4748]

This might just be the best hidden gem I've ever found.

[@ConnorTostevin1]

same here =D... found any more...

[@ionebrown481]

Treasure💖💖

[@scottmckenzie5476]

Word.

[@Cstoreri]

Marcus Wells me too

[@markstewart4501]

Im here for the depraved, and I want to know when the house burnt down. The circle of life has a certain stain to it. The white, the water, etc...what if its cyclical?...hmmm, let us base it on greed or some white haired "in touch".

[@MyRoom_is_old]

If those two aren't absolutely head over heels in love with each other they're the greatest actors EVER!

[@allisons6910]

They're siblings! lol. However, I agree it's still pretty sussy with the cheek and nose kisses: 0:43, 1:07, but it does makes these parts more sensible: 1:52, 1:55, 2:21, 2:50, 2:54 All in all, a little bit of sus is worth it for the savings on production costs, esp if reshoots are needed.

[@neverthesame7887]

OMG Fell in Love with "fuck me up" and went looking for more of his music, found this. Subscribed. I love, love his voice and obviously his music. His voice is amazing.

[@70Slinger]

Yup just " Found" him too today love his music. Fuck me up is great.

[@billportland4710]

Ditto

[@ryanmatson8097]

Same…

[@JahLove63]

That brilliant song is certainly a hook, fo' sure. ✌💗🤘

[@iancoughlin3837]

hey. was getting a bit stir crazy, with this corona virus lockdown . saw this and smiled from ear to ear. cheers

[@Vicky-xw9um]

visiting again and again and again... Oh Pokey, my heart!

[@zeromt3577]

Incredible! Pokey has again drawn a line between the fields we know and those beyond. But, we all have to ask, who is this sorceress who so effortlessly walks between all the worlds? How could anyone be simultaneously so mischievous and transcendent? It must be some trace element within the local supply of drinking water...

[@cliffboule8395]

Pokey LaFarge live is one of the best times you can have. They’re absolutely brilliant!!!

[@linfincher]

Went to one of his shows in st louis. He's awesome! Very talented. He writes his own songs and plays multiple instruments.

[@THX-eo9bh]

This was filmed in my neighborhood in South St. Louis😊

[@angelikaryburn5340]

I love this guy! It turns out the video was filmed by my house in Bloomington IL. I watched them filming it I think. Thank You Pokey. Tell Mom Hey.

[@babywah3290]

It looks very Midwest, I would’ve guessed Ohio or Pennsylvania.

[@davidcraft7376]

Louisville,, KY has a fantastic radio station, WFPK. Been playing Pokey for a number of years.

[@ashfriend7008]

Big South City energy-- love the backyard decks and the pretzel roll. Great song, too.

[@beedaffy]

Totally right! Love the backyards and alleys. Pokey is a li'l St. Louie/Illinois gem.

[@loucat2779]

Pokey brought it BIG time Friday in beautiful Fall River, MA. What a PARTY!! He just wasn't gonna stop. No Way!!

[@ThomHiatt]

Loving this music. Mom told me about Pokey years ago but I never paid attention to her. Then she visited me; we put Pokey on the TV and my newborn started dancing. I'm hooked... and spreading the word. Can't wait for the concert! I'm bringing a bus of people!

[@orgonkothewildlyuntamed6301]

Thom Hiatt HER????? boy get them eyes checked lol

[@ThomHiatt]

orgonko the wildly untamed​ "her" was a reference to my mother, not to Pokey.

[@MicheleRenee67]

Thom Hiatt I understood that. 😊

[@bevtuft3572]

always listen to yo mama, boy.

[@echopryme]

That damned girl's smile at the 2:20 mark... 🤣 THAT is the whole purpose of this song! She's HORRIBLE... But there's that damned smile that's impossible not to fall in love with. 💯😎❤

[@bluekouki86]

This is so refreshing to hear. I've only recently discovered you and your band, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate your musical talent. This is a huge breath of fresh air in a world of computerized fake music. Thank you!

[@ph00xy]

I found this video a couple weeks and I've watched it at least once nearly every day since.

[@christophercasey5368]

Old school at its finest. A nice change of pace. For Pokey, it fits his music perfectly. Very few can pull it off. I can't

[@samjam431]

Finally a youtube recommendation that i wasn't asking for that i should have been, loved it!

[@juanitagoslin984]

Pokey Lafarge is the best band and their music is the best I 've heard since 1960's. I love the fact that u cannot sit still at all to the music. Pokey keep on writing music and PLEASE KEEP ALL YOUR BAND MEMBERS u guys fit together like An Expensive set of gloves. Going to S.F. July 22nd 2015 I am stoked

[@marybolin695]

I'm hooked on Pokey's style of music. Love all his songs and would go to all his shows if I could. Great is all I can say.

[@rowein8775]

This song has been stuck in my head all day. Best day ever.

[@kurtfoulke5130]

If 2 million people viewed this, why the hell couldn't one of them tell me about it ? Screw it ! It's going to be my secret place to go now too. I must leave here to go watch the rest of them but, I'll be back

[@amberunthank7209]

So pumped!!! I get to see him in Nashville Friday May 13. Love him and his amazing music. ❤❤

[@portiakitten]

Love it! 2024 needs this

[@fallenrepublic6342]

Been watching this forever (years and years)...so super creative...well composed, sung and visually performed....so iconic. Bravo!!

[@rustychrome]

Still come back to this song.

[@drnancysjohnson3844]

I first heard Mr. LaFayette on Prarie Home Companion and today in honor of the 4th of July, I decided to look him up on my Kindle. After watching the KZbin video of "Something In The Water", I am now a life long fan because his looks and sense of humor in the video match his music and voice perfectly. Now I plan to send the video of this song off to my 3 adorable son-in-laws for them to enjoy as well. Thank you! Dr. Nancy

[@elsiecollins4948]

I think you mean Mr. LaFarge!!!

[@playswithblades]

How can this artist have so few subscribers. The songs are truly upbeat and entertaining.

[@TheHornet44]

I heard this song for the first time a few days ago and I’ve listened to it multiple times a day! It just keeps getting stuck in my head

[@jondarcangelo2906]

From Northern California, Can Not Stop listening to this song. GOLD

[@whereswaldo5740]

I hear ya. Pretty sure it’s true in SoCal.

[@cadjs]

This guy is my favourite lockdown discovery...just sad I didn't find him sooner...still, there are loads of tunes to catch up on.... 😎

[@firewalker1236]

Just booked to come and see you in Nottingham 2022. Really looking forward to it

[@MichiganLady]

You won't regret... He was amazing live.

[@lannyqualls9428]

Just stumbled across this guy and now I can't stop smiling! The song is over and I'm STILL tapping my foot! Wow! Gotta go spend some time with Pokey! WOW!

[@sav7568]

Congratulations to whoever directed this clip. Nice job.

[@FreddeNilsson1980]

I cant stop listening to this song. Damn good song man... This album is going to fill my summer with joy.

Amazing, thank you The Devil All the Time for showing me this extraordinary artist. Even if I am 5 years late to the party.

[@therealjamespickering]

My wife is so level-headed and sensible. I wish, at times, there was something in our water.

[@tammyknoll-anderson2433]

He sounds so freakin' authentic. How does he do that? It's amazing!

[@coleadamsmusic]

Very fun video! I love seeing so much of south city st. louis, mo, in this. Home sweet home. :-D You make us back here in STL, proud!

[@wvlmunky]

How You Tubes algorithm got this to me, I wont ever know... but Im damn glad it did.... I spent 3 hours last night on a Pokey LaFarge binge and never heard of him before....

[@FrankGraceGuitar]

I started my day listening to trance hop and this is where I end up? Cool. Pokey been in a Cohen Bros movie yet? because he needs to be. Great stuff

[@63highvoltage]

he's in devil all the time

[@VictorNiner603]

THIS is my favorite! Going right out to get this CD when it comes out tomorrow. I need a Hoosier Girl like this!

[@theservantofdarkness3557]

Literally so good

[@davidanderson5576]

Whew----Pokey has finally met his match.......He may have a great wardrobe, but this woman's closet and sense of style is a once in a lifetime combination!!

[@paulleavell4317]

Dec 28 2020 I just discovered this band!! SWEET‼

[@josephgreeley5569]

Pokey, you have just made me a fan. Love your work!

Have to say this guy is a great singer and videos are never dull.

Saw them in Charlottesville once... I miss shows 😩

[@walterbriggs272]

A little crazy goes a long distance. Love this song got a nice beat, good words, nice vocals

Never wanted to dance as much as when I hear this fellow sing.

[@robertomendez187]

Pokey LaFarge, I can't believe I've just seen this! Amazing music, honestly. love. it.

[@tomschmitt8561]

Filmed in South City ( St Louis ) in my Tower Grove South neighborhood 🥰 Home of the So. City Hoosiers...

[@tomschmitt8561]

I saw Pokey last night at Crystal Bay Casino in north Lake Tahoe… Killed it!!!

[@katherinegaughan45]

I went from Eddie Vedder to this and....I'm kind of glad to be on the KZbin rabbit hole again. Love him.

[@healthcareforallfiftyseven3773]

This should be a top ten hit on the radio. America, where did you all go?

Hiding from President Cuckoo McCrazypants, lol.

I wasnt looking for this but I'm glad I found it

[@johnniesoesbee7015]

Pokey, you're the man, I've been listening to you for a couple years now.

[@tomypageau2988]

I can't wait to see you guys in Montreal this summer! Great song, I hope the album is gonna be as happy as this song.

[@jimshaw9449]

Really enjoyed this, thank you, true talent.

[@teddywoodward7789]

BEST SONG I'VE HEARD IN A LONG TIME!!! GREAT JOB!!!💪😎👍🎸

[@Kathex91]

I don't know how I got here.... But I just love that song and video. Great work! Amazing!!!

[@festerization]

Pokey just keeps blowing up. The real deal. He can write, play, sing.

[@LenapeSF]

F***Me Up brought me here. LaFarge music & videos have addictively appealing qualities. Beer can rollers are genius. Reminds me of stuff I used to do.

[@boscodooley8561]

You can tell they had a lot of fun making this video

[@stusturgis2847]

Glad I've bumped into Pokey. Much needed. The kind of stuff the masses rarely take to, and if they do they ruin it.

[@johnbunn798]

The new World Record, i have watched this same DAMN video 28 times in a row!!! i need to get some sleep, but can't right now!!! MUST BE SOMETHIN IN THE WATER!!!!!

[@yimmy7160]

this is just down right brilliant and beautiful all while bringing a bit of the "crazy" into it as well

[@cj18333]

Awesome music. Who is she and where can I find one like her?

Yes! Dig that rockabilly tone! Beautiful

[@Ogsonofgroo]

Still wonderful a few clicks down the road, been some great young folks bringing back swing/rock-a-billie/jazz from all over the world, absolutely love it, keep on keeping on Pokey and co!

[@danbrockettDOP]

Pokey escaped from an unmade Coen Brothers movie for sure. Great stuff.

[@jimtyrrell1]

This guy is a treasure!!!This video has me on the floor in stitches. I haven't seen anything this funny since Weird Al. I saw him in 2019 as a solo act in Annapolis and his talent and humor were over the top.

[@tesssmith9044]

Every time I do something crazy.... I sing this song to my hubby.

[@Bibibosh]

I only got into country folk songs 4 years ago. But this song is definitely a one hit!

[@doesi415]

I heard this song on my car-radio a few days ago. Thought it must be a really old record (probably because of the radio-hiss) and drove home with this cool swing feeling. At home I searched for the title in www and found this terrific band. I am really thrilled!! What you do is mega... keep on swinging!! (...and maybe play a concert in Germany...?? :-)

[@ThomHiatt]

awesome!

[@gijsvanleeuwen6525]

+doesi415 he plays like 300 shows a year and he come to europe alot, i live in the netherlands and this year he gave like 4 concerts here. his concerts have an awesome feeling just because of all the people who are atravted to this kind of musix XD

I usually listen to 50s, 60s, and 80s music, but this takes me back to some of the blues my Grandpa used to play. Love the music, and the videos are a trip. Would love to see you playing around Greenville or Spartanburg SC.

Why not 70s bro?

[@Patriot7476]

@@Bycekko I do listen to some 70s. Black Sabbath, Rainbow, Led Zeppelin, and a few others. But they are in a whole different class than 70s pop. Those are the gold standard.
