Queens Of The Stone Age - I Sat by the Ocean (Fox Uninvited Guest)

[@robin3]

The vocal ranges and transitions are fucking incredible. Seriously, this guy is no joke. He is a true legend.

[@shanemansfield6537]

I was just talking to my Wife and lil' brother about Joshua. Absolutely one of the GREATS!!! one talented mofo! !!! and under rated as heck!!! thank God for players like Josh Homme.

[@ThiefOfNavarre]

They harmonise incredibly well. One of the things I like best about QotSA

[@brettershoalar9001]

Dig this, there is an awesome interview with him, sweating in a garage somewhere in L.A. and talking about his (very) early times in guitar playing. About style, tech and sound. Both guys make it a cool but hot conversation about music - no studio and no big cameras needed. He and his band is one of my idols in playing the guitar. They have such an outstanding sound.

[@davemudge1217]

I don't think many people realize how much of a masterpiece this band is honestly....

[@RudeeOlivier]

QOTSA is just one of the last great band in rock history. Among the greatest. I would love your input on our last video from our first album. It got the attention of one of my heroes Joe Bouchard (ex bass player founding members of BÖC) who is following us on Soundcloud but returns from people who likes same music is always the best. If you have just 3 minutes to listen and a bit more to comment, that would mean the world to me. Keep rockin' kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2LJh4WNa99mpJY and Happy new year

I just wanted to point out what an underated singer Josh is. That's all.

[@MaartenvanRossemLezingen]

He's a pure musical genius if he writes all these songs on his own. He also does complex singing and quite complex guitaring at the same time which is almost impossible to do.

[@wirtentier]

+Maarten van Rossem Lezingen I think QOTSA is one of the most innovative rock bands of the last 15 years at least. They never duplicate what they've done on their last record and always produce some really unique shit, and they've stayed relevant to this day. Not a lot of bands can say that.

[@MaartenvanRossemLezingen]

[@matteoj226]

It cannot be underestimated how hard it must be to play this song live, never mind unplugged and acoustic. And somehow Josh manages to make it sound this good. Outrageous band.

[@tracevicente]

Ok so can we just say Josh’s voice is amazing? Underrated? I can’t get over how good this is!

I’ve watched/listened to this 50+ times over the years. Just an amazing rendition.

[@misterwallace3479]

[@NyxInfernal]

Goddamn, his fucking voice shocks me every time. I always just assume an artist sounds different live, and they won't sing the song the same for various reasons, but fuck he does it just like the studio version and it's just beyond excellent. Awestruck is the only way to describe how I feel when I watch them do live shows on here. If I saw them in person, I'd likely stand there like a moron as my jaw hangs open from how fucking amazed I'd probably be.

This song is a future classic but currently underappreciated. QOTSA FOREVER!

[@yauker]

If I was in this audience, I'd be watching it back likely on this day and many others with either sadness because I didn't show enough appreciation in the crowd- sitting there mesmerized in silence.. Or a fantastical session of rock-out-ism. This is what the most important musicians have to offer, and I just hope the overall fame and love they get is payment enough- because i've never paid for music in my life and it hurts that I've never been able to "afford" to.

[@COCO-oc1in]

I've watched this vid like 40 million times over the years. How are they all so calm?

[@COCO-oc1in]

Same!!! I've watched this beautiful masterpiece by qotsa a thousand times. Who could sit so calm in front of such masters of music?

[@gretajohnson8319]

It's an acoustic set, so audience is trying to be quiet. Plus they're probably speechless at the masterpiece they're witnessing.

[@catkisser]

How could that audience be so calm?? I would have been beside myself!

[@TheBalcerman]

I think it is very un-cool when someone is interrupting a masterpiece performance. This isn't Britney Spears, you know. When I listen to that kind of live music and someone is fucking clapping hands I want to slap that person in the face. Or maybe punch.. .dunno. I want to listen to the musicians not some shit noise.
