One of the best singers on the planet

[@owenzey]

All Welsh people are the best singers on the planet

[@nathaliedaligaux4781]

I can only agree to that! He definitely is 😍

[@baTonkaTruck]

I don't know this band just love the song. Verse about to start and I'm like "welp let's see what he's got.." He says "Nobody on the road.." paused it immediately and I was like DAMN. DAMN that was good. DAMN.

[@JMartin-d6z]

Not even close!

[@cinnamonchallenge1030]

Fuck ❤

[@Philoyouknow]

Jeff Lynne just randomly sitting there listening. Brilliant.

[@margothartwell6195]

Wow! Fantastic

[@benwhittingtonmusic]

I wonder how much he was just wanting to throw a higher harmony on the chorus!

[@cinnamonchallenge1030]

Enjoyed

[@teckertime]

Proper.

[@Daytripper806]

What a voice this man has. Best and consistent voice of rock n roll over the last 30 years

[@dmo8895]

Thats the welsh for you

[@alastairbrewster4274]

This man could sing anything , absolutely beautiful

[@Squadron_Bodron]

This is antisemitic.

[@nicholascurvis-gp1kw]

Kelly does a great cover of this Don Henley classic......his voice oozes that deep throat Henley vibe and never lets up!!!!!! Superb cover.....

[@allisnotwhatitseems.]

Golden throat

[@thomasbusy3632]

Thank you Mike Campbell for making this song!

[@larry4111]

Thank you! I was looking for this comment.

[@MaxMontauk]

Yes, it was Mike. Tom Petty did not believe in this song.

[@teckertime]

@@MaxMontauk Fascinating.....

[@sharpsconsultancy2342]

I love the Phonics and Don Henley. Beautiful

[@allisnotwhatitseems.]

Me too

[@xboxhussy37]

So privileged to have been around and seen these back in the day 😍🤩🤘🤘🤘

[@delanodegenie6970]

Yep me too.. Kelly Jones sounds the same live as he does on a recorded track.. Every single time his voice is spot on!

[@JustIce-u9w]

What a great version of this song.

[@richardyoung7415]

DAME BUT THE BOY STILL SOUNDS GOOD, HE COULD SING THE YELLOW PAGES AND STILL SOUND GOOD. PEACE TO YOU ALL MY FRIEND'S. ✌️😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@danbur17]

How good is this…superb

[@Paraguaydiamond]

A lovely version of the song...

[@dizzylizzysunflower]

Sublime..Kelly could sing the ingredients from a packet of cornflakes and it would sound like poetry 😊

[@Draper99]

This is sensational. Kelly Jones has an incredible voice, and the understated intimacy of this performance is sublime

[@jubs1533]

Wow, what a beautiful rendition.

[@MarkWilliams-tj3ru]

Well done Kelly bach & band,fantastic,not just one of the best rock bands but the best vocalist & band in the world then again I'm biased I'm Welsh ❤

[@tonycogan6714]

Astonishing cover

[@H.T.S]

crazy thing is Don Henley's boys of summer is a track i have never really rated BUT i heard stereophonics live version and its the best song i have EVER heard WOW

[@scrumpymanjack]

Great voice.

[@craiglightowler8922]

Top effort 👍👏👏 in my top 3 all time favourite timeless songs and you didnt destroy it.

[@SuperBaz1985]

Clean, restrained musicianship. Not a wasted note. Great mixing from the sound guy!!! Great version, can't get it outta my head

[@H.T.S]

perfection

[@Tirioncariad]

wonderful singing and accompaniment! love this cover!

[@desdermoaner809]

brilliant cover and live performance

[@JaneKellie-i9y]

I love this Sterophonics song. I love how Jeff Lynne is sitting and listening. ThankYou Radio 2 🫡🇬🇧🫡

[@JaneKellie-i9y]

This is absolutely a great version. 😎

[@Sparky5882]

Incredible. Could sit and drift off into a daydream listening to thus all day 👏

[@alansdorsetfossils4028]

There is something about this version of the song that's very appealing. For me it's the fab vocals and the simple clean delivery that presses my buttons. The Don Helney version has a lovely lead guitar riff part way through but its Steriophonics version that some how shines through as better.

[@mrc5653]

Kelly’s unique ✌️

[@garymartin557]

Stripped down to what is only required, nothing more. Clean, simple and pure, overlayed with Kelly's gravelly voice.

[@stevieclee3309]

Brilliant!…….Welsh legends 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Ra-de-oo on baby. Gotta love the Welsh Accent escaping there

[@shinjy07]

Shivers down my spine.

[@RobinHartJones]

I am not a Stereophonics fan but I have to admit that he has a great voice

[@EdWeibe]

fabulous song. Having been on beaches on both coasts and various times of the year, it captures it all.

[@seanboyle7564]

[@ballenstorms]

One and a half step down from the recorded version? Sounds great in this key. Think I’ll add it to my acoustic set list. Thanks for sharing!

[@martinhughes9769]

Brilliant 👏

[@Stereophonicsobsessed]

Amazing 🎉🎉❤❤

[@thestrengthwithin4249]

Goosebumps all over 👏👏👏👏there’s no limits to wear Kelly can throw his vocals, just outstanding performance, in fact un fkin believable,🙌🙌

[@Leewoods123]

Love how there’s a fake cheer like they’ve scored a goal in a football stadium when they say which song they’re gonna do🤣

[@H.T.S]

STEREOPHONICS should be held in the same regards as OASIS i've always believed that

[@harrywalsh677]

Better than oasis great musicians 👏👏👏

[@HowToLiftRight]

Excruciatingly nostalgiac. KT Tunstall did a heart wrenching version too after her mom passed away.

[@AndrewWeatherall-cd9zm]

Sensational

[@TheUnsignedbands]

The exact arrangement that the Devon folk band Show of Hands does. Excellent.

[@simontonry4754]

In surprised Henley hasn't blocked the video.

[@bordercollie1140]

Why? Has he got a reputation for that sort of thing?

[@The_Unintelligent_Speculator]

Epic.

[@shaunloynds5317]

Elegant.

[@Stereophonicsobsessed]

Kelly 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

[@joey_williams]

Looks like the drummer's head is the real metronome of the band. Who needs a click track when you've got neck moves like that? Awesome performance by all 👏

[@tonymcguiness9843]

I always hated this song till hearing this version until hearing this! Kelly you just have it bud!!

[@AdrianCaden]

Wooow

[@Paraguaydiamond]

A sad song about loss...IC24

[@seaniliffe]

Brilliant, is that a Martin D18 he’s playing?

[@barnbersonol]

I saw him in Cardiff Queen Street just sat there, nobody taking any notice. He's really small about 5'4".

[@alanwalsh9538]

Better then the original

[@alansdorsetfossils4028]

Its a cleaner simpler rendition of this song than the Eagles but somehow although I like some of the Eagles lead guitar riffs this is more pleasing to my ears anyway. Amazing song.

[@JMartin-d6z]

It wasn’t the Eagles it was Henley solo. Just sayin 🤷‍♂️

[@bordercollie1140]

​@@JMartin-d6zYeah I was just thinking the same thing.

[@MikeLawtonUK]

Not an Eagles track! From Henley’s superb solo album, Building the Perfect Beast 😊

[@stephenflynn4072]

Kelly Jones could sing anything amazing talent

[@SpencerHart-hz5cb]

That bass player has landed on his feet in this band.

[@stefan3413]

🥰😍🤩

[@deansongs]

This is probably a dumb question, but did you guys make a copyright payment on this? I got a copyright strike, obviously not from you guys, on a video I put out here singing along with you guys.

[@Magicalfluidprocess]

Suprised don hasn’t insisted this gets a copyright notice

[@stevenhaldane5910]

Better than the original Which is F**king great anyway

[@slimtanadaman2309]

Daniel Sent me

[@mankydave67]

Liked it before even hearing it. It’s Kelly, what’s not to like?

[@JerryThompson-c3o]

Can anyone tell me what the tuning is?

[@paulm8908]

when the intelligence of a soul crying out makes a point for all to understand, we, who live a humble life, jump to their ideas. the road we took, vs them, are differently accentuated. those, who went to the arts, were supposed to be different than us, who went to work. the lie came to fruition, for us who went to work years later. i can pour concrete, but i understand the philosophy of my life, and yours that i perceive to be important too. those who went to university, do not care about what we do in our small world, but we do care what they do. unfortunately for those who sit on high, and call us little Christian fools, they have lost the message. we look at life, and everyone in it, including the university people, as people. important by gods love. whats going to happen to them? we cannot say. what's going to happen to us? they would definitely say. we threaten their godspire life, and they want us destroyed. ask yourself, to a fault, who are the demons.

[@bordercollie1140]

Easily the most superficial comment I've ever read in my life. Who is it you're trying to impress?

[@bigscountrygame3510]

“Kellytastic!” 😎

[@GhostGuitars]

3 guitarists there and no one playing the lead lines?

[@stevebrinston7281]

Gee they sound so good. Does anyone know what the chords he is playing are?

[@kieranhealy9815]

It looks like Bm , C , G I'll have a good look and try to tab it buddy

[@rockiebutteling7369]

Hey did you manage to figure out the chords? I wanna play along too 😊

[@stevehewlett8231]

Verses = Bm G A G Chorus = D A G

[@guimarboy]

A Mike Campbell song....

[@pb3644]

Lyrics written entirely by Don Henley

[@iainb9277]

Pretty good...but not a patch on Our Small Capital

[@TrudyMinto]

Ditt I'll.

[@miked1869]

This is a decent enough cover, but I think it was a mistake to take the tempo down. There's a certain urgency to the original, and this sounds a bit pedestrian by comparison.

[@bordercollie1140]

A good cover never sounds exactly like the original so I'll have to disagree with you on this one.

[@kcgeil]

Prequel for Dakota. Da Iawn.

[@kevinbarton7233]

Try singing it in the original key then we'll see how good a singer he is

[@bordercollie1140]

What would be the point in covering the song if they're gonna try and do everything the same? Why didn't Hendrix do Watchtower on an acoustic like Dylan and then we would have seen how good of an acoustic player he is.

[@meisterlymanu5214]

great singer but someone was off on guitar.

Henley would have probably mimed this

[@bordercollie1140]

Maybe he would but what would you have done? Assuming you can play, sing and write.

[@stephen1562]

@@bordercollie1140 I wouldn't have claimed to have been singing when I wasn't

[@bordercollie1140]

@@stephen1562 My point was it wouldn't matter if you decided to mime or not because you haven't written anything of the quality of this song, so it's a moot point at best on your behalf.

[@stephen1562]

@@bordercollie1140 I understood your point perfectly well. On that basis no one on KZbin would be allowed to express any criticism on the basis that they hadn't written anything comparable. My point stands, fully recognising as I do the outstanding quality of Henley's writing.

[@bordercollie1140]

@@stephen1562 You started off condemning Henley saying that he'd more than likely mime the song, then you end by saying the outstanding quality of his writing. The only thing I take from talking with you is that you're extremely superficial and you have no problem in contradicting yourself trying to prove a point.

[@astronautist4716]

Excellent vocal but a very boring version otherwise. Too slow, half-time as well. This is an excellent driving song they've turned into a dirge

[@astronautist4716]

Moreover he could have done this dull version on his own the band could've had the morning off. Tired of bands sucking the vitality out of songs. John Lewis Xmas ad trash
