Why bring religion in this?

[@JeremyColl-zu8vq]

@@d-eftones how can you not? Everything came out of Jesus and is going back to him, for better or worse. He made all things by himself, thru himself and for himself. He lived as flesh amongst us, tempted in every way and remaining sinless. He gave his perfect life as the sacrifice God requires for the sin of the world. He whipped Satan's butt, freed the captives from Hell and rose again on the 3rd day. He walked and taught 40 more days, then ascended in clouds up to his Father. He's coming back the same way he left, but before then he will appear and shine God's light in the clouds over Jerusalem near midnight, and every eye will see it. It'll happen when light returns to Hanukkah full moon, to fulfill the prophecy in Amos. God promised Israel that he will ruin their feasts, and he will, right at their focal point. He's gonna show me that they worship the wrong light. They still won't get it, and will fall for antiChrist lies for awhile, til he shows his true face anominates desolation. Then they'll run thru the desert to the caves in megiddo. The earth will swallow up the armies that chase them. Jesus doesn't want us to have religion. We all do things religiously. Jesus wants a personal relationship with you. Talk to him. Let it all up. Then he still and listen to what he tells you. We have to be still and KNOW that he is God. We have to quiet our minds and just worship. Love him like a young boy loves his daddy.

This is some of the most impressive shit ever. I wanna know what tuning he’s in, and what gauge strings he’s got on, freaking 9s? Those bends look like they’re gonna snap, but they’re so loose and the action is low, the way I set my guitars up. He’s in that rare zone you get in , where you don’t have to look at anything, and you just lean into the emotion and feel of sounding awesome. Dude is amazing.

[@jackfin212]

I think he's in an open tuning. Open C maybe.

[@al.m765]

he's in open c# major

since the guitar is tuned so low the string tension is a lot looser and the bends are easier. He is probably playing regular gauge 12's or even 13's.

[@underthewater_]

If I may offer a counterpoint; Radio is where music goes to die. As something gets played for it's popularity, it creates a pressure on the artist to conform. To stay popular, you have to linearize your sound. God forbid a popular artist drastically changes their tone/sound. By staying 'under the radar' artists are allowed to remain in their own zone, and do as they please. Plus, Radio is for 'easy-listening'. These guys benefit from energy, improvisation, and energy. I would be willing to bet these guys love playing live for their fans, more than anything else. You don't get that if you get played on the Radio. Which is more than anything the reason for Radio is dying out, it's not challenging people to listen. Music is never dead, live instrumentation might be on a decline, but if you dig around on the Internet, plenty of it is there. Perhaps you can look away from the Radio as a source of new tunes moving forward?

Guy Fieri Tell em Guy!

[@dixonanimals2012]

buddy i said he has raw talent. I'm looking for medium-rare

[@westonirons264]

This man has more talent in the tip of his index finger than I do in my whole body. Thank you for reminding us what good music sounds like, Alejandro.

[@Missyland00]

Beautiful song; it is very comforting to me right now. I lost four very special people close together. This song hugs me.

[@slypanda3655]

10 years later still coming back to this magnificent performance

[@crystalruss6006]

Dear KZbin algorithm, thank you, for once, for taking me somewhere I didn't know I really wanted to go. My mind is blown at the range and talent.

[@dougmackey3696]

I saw him for the first time last night. He is a real character. I love his raw funky approach. Once he begins a song he is totally in the music. He is at the mercy of the music. Loved his performance.

[@ethanvonwald]

Same here, I was down at Treasure Island, Initially I was really disappointed when Caamp bailed, but honestly, hearing him live I genuinely am so glad I was able to see him

[@MiNd-_-sAp-_-1O1]

Prior to taking up guitar myself five years ago, I would not have had the overwhelming appreciation for this Masterful performance that I do today; I discovered this just a few days ago and I find it absolutely brilliant! I'm blown away by how drawn I am to it (I can't stop myself from listening to it over-and-over) there's an emotional presence in which I find so refreshing and inspirational that I'm pretty sure there was a transfer of a soul involved here! LoL Being a writer of several hundred song lyrics and ideas, in varying degrees of completion, I was inspired to the point of writing my own lyrics to it in which I titled "The Lesser of my Two Evils".

[@alexanderhenderson7036]

From 5k views to 30million. I been listening to this for 8 years. Now they play it on a local indie station. Never gets old.

[@ericaaguirre6881]

Found this video a couple of days ago and I can't stop listening to this guy. I'm obsessed. I haven't heard anything like him before. His music is perfect mix of western, rock, and folk. He's described as a country folk artist but it he sounds more western than country to me.

[@verarose9890]

I was too

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

I definitely hear the folk in his music, but yeah, country doesn’t really fit what I’ve heard so far. Folk/bluegrass/western, and this particular song has some deep blues vibes.

[@christistratton]

Eleven years, and this is as fine a song as I have ever heard. My ears listen to it, and my brain STILL says "What the HELL is that, I MUST hear some more~~~!"

[@CoDPopSmoke]

2024 here and lovin it still!

[@neverbeen2graceland]

Here at the end of 2024, not only did we make it but this song is still a banger

[@elizaanderson8909]

Oh my goodness, I'm so obsessed with this raw performance.

[@helenvoss]

Honestly I only heard his music on spotify and definitely though shakey graves was an entire band not one person. A true virtuoso

[@emorikuhn]

Whenever I think I’m getting good at my musical progression I come back here and humble myself. Love u dad.

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

That main guitar riff does something indescribable and wonderful to my soul. And the vocals are beautiful, too. This song makes me feel so alive every time I listen to it.

[@XoXitsSaruhh]

I've been listening to this for weeks, can't stop.

[@stevenbaum6505]

Old man here And impressed as hell New sound,or just bending the old in a new way.

[@Gerber6209]

This song will randomly get stuck in my head for days if not weeks and I'm okay with that.

There are certain songs you hear at certain times that are the perfect mood and match the perfect feeling, and most importantly will bring back memories each time you hear them. Every time I listen to this song, it will bring back one of the greatest memories I have and I’m thankful for it.

[@PIvory-ig9bc]

I met an adorable 12 year old from Georgia at the hat shop I worked at who told me his idol was Shakey graves and it made my heart explode. He was so excited to become great and we talked about music and lyrics...gosh I hope that kid becomes an awesome musician and human being bless him

[@brandizook8425]

That is way too cool ♡♡♡

[@Davida-in9ll]

+Nonew Friends He's touring with a drummer and another guitar player. But he is Shakey Graves.

[@MorrahaDesigns]

He had a voice born of a thousand thousand cigarettes and too much whiskey. It brushed across your ears like a gentle hand accustomed to hard labor. The rough callous accentuating the yearning heart beneath it. You heard the life in the voice. The years of mistakes, the tries and failures and getting back up again. The years of victories and the relief when getting back up finally worked. A voice that carries stories in its body as much as in the words it forms. His voice was rough and raspy, and rich. It was satisfying and fulfilling in spite of the broken corners and splintered beams. A voice that you could open up and relax into. It was a good voice. It was a very good voice.

[@yashuab.2979]

Oh well that's how it goes! So it goes.

[@AySevinExEffOweBee]

good gracious that snarl is everything. I can't resist a good, rough voice bellowing out some soul tunes, this is perfection

Aww!!! So nice hearing back from a very big fan like you . I really appreciate your support and I promise to always keep it counting for you

[@noehumilier3826]

Je peux pas m’arrêter de le regarder chanter, jouer, taper du pied, le voir ressentir tout ce qu’il fait avec ce grain de folie dans les yeux, dans la voix, dans la musique en elle même qui sors d’ont ne sait où ! Incroyable performance en vrai, j’aurais voulu être une petite souris dans le studio ce jour là !

Love to see all the comments from the last year. This guy is an absolute machine and this song is up there for one of the best, I think. Been almost 10 years since I first saw this and I still come back regularly

[@missannabelle248]

Truly, something about his voice....makes my heart start pounding, heat rise up into my face, breathe faster. What the hell?!

[@dongambino5308]

I think that's called sexual attraction

[@ellief4277]

Hes got such a unqiue voice. if he blows up, like im hoping, he'll be remembered forever.

[@ADVENTURESOFBZ]

Everything this man does is so thorough and complete. No part is wasted or just filler, blown away yet again

[@rcair123]

Sure he can act, he can sing, he can play guitar, he can drum with his feet, he can write music but can he change a tire? Because I can change a tire....

[@Protectourbioshpere]

He can do all of that WHILE changing a tire! lol

[@rcair123]

@@Protectourbioshpere He probably can, he can make a suitcase drum so why not. Dang it!

Lol stupid....now tat was funny rcair!!

[@danedonovan5787]

Graves is timeless man. He is so talented. This guy Brett McDaniel is good too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIjTqKGBmK-tqLs he isn't big or anything but he played a show with JTE. He is a great song writer. Songs about sad days.

[@barfin5351]

[@moosespeak6140]

I'd never heard of this guy. My father passed away 12 yrs ago and was always sending me live artest and dam could he hear them. Dad was always a natural picking amazing artist and songs across the board so you can imagine how I felt when at the end of a Playlist this popped up. I can tell you I'll be seeing him in concert the 30th of Augest in Bonner, Montana.

[@kaelynmiddleton8145]

This makes me want to dance around every time I hear it, it goes straight to my soul makes me feel so happy and excited!

[@RadarTheBrave]

I'm actually glad that people are finding Shakey Graves stuff and liking it. I started listening because of my parents and I really fell in love with Alejandro's music. If you just finding his stuff, I recommend his album "Can't wake up" Its got some good stuff, and that was the first album I started listening to.
