This session saved my life. No joke

[@alissabass5396]

He has the most amazing voice. I’m shocked that he is not more widely known.

[@g12bzy]

Honestly don't know what I would do without this man's music in my life. The fact he's an absolute gentleman is an inspiration as well.

[@markdavis8430]

Facts brotha

[@Mo-ss8gr]

Absolutely agree xx

[@user-ju6ew7fc7c]

100!

[@annacobb1140]

He's an absolute sweet heart. Life is good

[@charleswhite1481]

One of the songwriters of his generation for sure. And a heavenly voice. Keep going Jon we love you!

[@mariasher8793]

One of the most underrated songwriters. He just keeps getting better and better, and he is sounding awesome. Lovely man too, very sweet and unassuming. Huge fan

[@carolchapman584]

Same😊

[@bgierat]

He’s gentle and shy. Almost nervously awkward which makes him that much more awesome. So human like us all....

[@InfinitelyQurious]

I've heard so many of the Fratellis songs, and I never-- in a million years-- thought the man behind that powerful rock and roll voice was so soft spoken. Mind blown.

[@andynicholas1728]

Sublime! Jon Fratelli is a master craftsman with a consumate understanding of melody and an outstanding voice.

[@AH-sn5xw]

Very articulate!

[@AH-sn5xw]

A beautiful person, with a beautiful voice, who is a beautiful lyricist. Jon and the band hit every sweet spot in my soul. There's so much depth to them and realism that just resonates with my entire being. Thank you, Jon. If I had a wish, it would be to spend one day of my life in Jon's company.

[@truedevelopment3566]

I've written it before, but it bears repeating...This man is a genius. The songs are carefully crafted, at times morose and at times ebullient. The albums are assembled with care, the whole being better than the parts. I hope he and his musical companions keep making music in the coming years.

[@carolchapman584]

Repeat away Jon fratelli slays me😮

[@CA56303]

Thank you KZbin for suggesting this. Jon, thank you being amazing.

[@frbfree]

My God... Stand Up Tragedy is a ballad. The brilliance of the stripped down version is so clear.

[@otsunafae]

Rick Bittle YES, YES, YES. A million times yes.

[@Martyboy_Glasgow]

@@otsunafae check out acoustic version of "slow"

[@robertdizon7166]

Jon's voice is the real deal, outstanding!

[@daveashbrook6107]

Give that man his J-45, a mic, and watch the magic happen.

[@satinemadden5046]

I'm listening to this on the floor with a bottle of scotch - living is very good.

[@alanluna7658]

Life is very good, indeed.

[@barrystewart8056]

Me too!

[@themangleberry8772]

I think if Bob Dylan & Johnny Depp had a baby it would be Jon Fratelli. I have met Jon a number of times and he has always been an absolute gent and consistently churning out great songs that are developing really well. Keep it up into old age please big J!

[@carolchapman584]

Envying you babe🎉

[@joshpemberton8128]

There’s a reason why I love the fratellis and why I love psycho jukebox and codeine velvet club.....it’s because of the genius of this man

[@carolchapman584]

Costello Music forever

[@claytonramsey2163]

I feel laughing gas is so beautiful here as a solo. He really put the feeling he wanted to convey into it, pure and unfiltered

[@joelicence2725]

he said that song is the only song on the record with a meaning: don't take life so seriously

[@MargaretChassels]

Dear Jon hi it's warm here in Scotland too warm thanks for the music 🎵🎶💋 cherry 🍒 🍭🌸

[@antwoff]

Jon is superb

[@haroldasraz]

This dude is quite talented.

[@trilllllllian4468]

This literally cured my headache.

[@VinceTheLovableStoner]

Stand up Tragedy left me speechless... wow. Love it

[@meganmeyer9733]

Love The Fratellis. Jon is a wonderful soul. Got to meet him a couple days ago and give him a painting we created and he was so sweet. 💗💗💗

[@katy8845]

Megan and Haley Meyer that's so cool ! where did you meet him ?

[@carolchapman584]

Just.....WOW Love of Jon Lawler

[@albionstore413]

Can’t wait to see this band live for the first time on March 29th in Newcastle!! What a voice and the music is so so catchy, can’t stop playing the new album over and over and over 🥰

[@jackaustin5423]

Honestly I think my favourite part of any fratellis album is jons beautiful acoustic versions. Each album is perfectly distinct, but all share a soul thats always at its peak in these wonderful covers. Mon the Fratellis!

[@joewilliams2352]

Jack Austin shut up jack

[@markhalliday2397]

Joe Williams shut up joe

[@sergioramos6455]

This is great. I’ve been following this man’s career for like fifteen years, he always gets a wonderful sound.

[@benitavonsass7121]

This moving song … omg. Beautiful man. Thank you for this inspiring song

[@graydonwallace2342]

Gorgeous songs and brilliant performances...I'm speechless. Love hearing Fratellis songs acoustically!

[@supertartelette8420]

Listened to it 3 times in a row... I need this music so much in my life

[@fbicappuccino]

funny how he got from an extroverted fast-playing shalalala pop/rockstar to an introverted, shy guy with a nice accent lol. i'm used to the first 2 albums and it's so weird to see jon like this

[@art40odd]

How awesome...

[@southofgermany3522]

If they ever come around dont miss its a real experience. Wasn t ready for that. Check out their new album "Half drunk under..."and his one "bright night flowers".☺

[@susanlustick9633]

excellent, so glad my niece Avalon shared this with me

[@lori6954]

That is honestly so sweet. I'm also glad your niece shared this with you. :) Happy Holidays!

[@MrTimbo41]

Beautiful songs played by a perfect singer, what a combination !!! tks a lot Jon and Fratellis

[@user-ju6ew7fc7c]

My lovely 😍💐

[@LaurieSwenson]

This is gorgeous and captivating, the conversation almost as much as the music. Sugartown is lovely and hopeful and sad in a way few songs grasp.

[@catgirlKL]

Just watched this really enjoyed it, only recently started listening to this band after hearing the album Half Drunk Under A Full Moon.

[@dawnykz7452]

Heartwrenching lovely

[@lordy75]

Saw them on Sat at Kentish Town and my god as always what a gig!! Starcrossed losers is an epic!

[@quinndavidfurness4375]

I listen to this every day!

[@marykrobock1634]

WOW! I just love this! Just wow, so good.

[@jcbuso]

Este tipo es un músico de la hostia! Badass musician

[@vstar650canuck7]

Great job. Excellent song!

[@AlanFratelli]

Beautiful songs!

[@folginator]

Great voice!!

[@kevinclutch519]

This is the greatest piece of music in history

[@raz8772]

S Agreed

[@aisthpaoitht]

I feel sad that this guy and his awesome music has been largely ignored by the fake media and mainstream crap. He has amazing content, but from the first CD, there were articles about them being imposters or something. So what, the guy wants to keep his private life private? Ridiculous that this band is barely on the radar. As I write this, this video is nearly two years old and only has 33k views. That's not right.

[@martinlaird9712]

Got to get this on another album

[@markdavis8430]

This was outstanding man!

[@stevenfagan917]

YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!

[@donnywalton6895]

These versions are so much better than the ones on the album.

[@tylermotes4463]

I love this so much!

[@user-bv7to3ek2o]

歌詞はよくわからないけどメロディと声とボサボサの髪が最高。

[@user-gm5hg1oh9x]

Emmm how soothing...

[@hawaydeano1535]

All of them songs are mega but that last number was of the charts!! Love that 'red wine covered sympathy' line.

[@aliceswan7451]

♥️

[@benitavonsass7121]

Laughing Gas

[@e_lena9656]

I'm in love with the recent album... Right as I am with every previous one ❤️ but Jon looks rather unhealthy here..

[@bgierat]

This could be an Everly Brothers song

[@tracyward6083]

Me Suz with my dear friend Tracy.....subscribed her.

[@sirroche4639]

the girl is a noob, love the accent, sugar town in 21st for me is a doobie and a gin

[@HEREONOUTBAILEY]

It’s quite sad that he remembers nothing about writing such a beautiful song. The struggles of drugs and alcohol ...

[@Anivasion]

Paste Magazine host; First lesson my journalism prof taught me was to listen to a recording of your own interview. I was saying "ok" after the person spoke. Ok in conversation but annoying for a recording. You are needlessly adding acknowledgments after your subject speaks. Stop doing that.

[@sernareyesjorge112]

This guy is dead

[@dawnykz7452]

How u feeling today ......hmmmm

[@gabrielerocchetti]

Why?

[@sernareyesjorge112]

@@gabrielerocchettiI don't remember why I wrote this 👀 I think I wrote it because he got so skinny.

[@gabrielerocchetti]

@@sernareyesjorge112 i think jon has been taking lots of drugs during his lifetime...
