WILCO - MISUNDERSTOOD (GREAT VERSION!!!)

Wilco

[@sustainableplanner]

Rest in Peace, Jay Bennett. You were so misunderstood.

[@jcc152509]

And he NEVER got the credit he was due. He was a talented man.

[@historynerd85]

The most overrated musician ever

@@historynerd85 Based on your comment, I have come to the realization that YOU, 85, are CORRECT! Thank you. PS History is written by the victor.

@@historynerd85 Once again, I would agree with you. Thank you for allowing me to see the error of my ways.🙌🏻 PS Provide me with some examples of objective history, omniscient one. 🙏🏻

My dear friend who passed away 2 years ago turned me on to Wilco. I totally get why he was such a fan. Before he passed i drove us to Austin to see Wilco for the first time. I wish he had enjoyed it more that night. It was only later we discovered he had stage 4 cancer. One of the few pleasures I have is listening to Wilco and think of our life-long friendship of 33 years.

[@carlinaquintero2835]

I have never heard of Wilco until I met my first love. He would sign their songs in the car, even though he was shy of singing in front of people. I was learning to speak English at the time, so I couldn't grasp the full meaning of the lyrics. 14 years later, Wilco's songs brings me comfort after my love and friend passed away in an avalanche. It is hard to get tired of listening to them over and over again when the lyrics and the guitar sounds are so perfectly matched to the feelings. RIP Tony

[@pamelasiner3862]

You are lucky to be in the arms/company of such a beautiful person.

[@pamelasiner3862]

I’m so sorry. My son introduced me to Wilco and he has since passed. I got Jeff Tweedy to dedicate a song. Impossible Germany and then a whole concert to my son Easter Sunday Providence RI 2010. Blessings and hugs to you.

[@tjk355]

Why is the algorithm producing so many dead relative posts?

[@shelby8364]

lmao the audience thinks the song is over then Jeff comes back at them screaming. Fantastic

[@sliv923]

Jay Bennett Wilco was the best. RIP.

[@philipbell9301]

Couldn’t agree more, they lost me after he left.

[@Ger71]

Jaysus Tweedy is one of the great songwriters. Rip Jay but Wilco are a far superior band after his departure.

[@historynerd85]

Wilco is the best they have ever been with their current lineup. Jay Bennett was just drugged up all the time and did weird shit so people thought he was some genius

[@JohnLittle-i6o]

@@Ger71 Yeah, no.

[@JohnLittle-i6o]

@@historynerd85 Also, he co-wrote literally every one of their best songs, but yeah, fuck that, he's JUST WEEEEEEEEEEEEIRD! Rot in hell, Jay!

[@patrickmartin7242]

This one will go down in the annals of Americana music. Impossible to separate some memories from my past with this song.

[@bluegrassbeer1]

Being There...The greatest album ever.

[@noahkankanala6997]

Jay was so talented. A multi instrumentalist who was excellent on everything he played.

[@richbarnes2451]

fuck fentanyl

[@tedpetersen1]

He was kind of notey.

[@tedpetersen1]

@Joey Maxon That's what Farrar said when he first heard Bennett. It's from Tweedy's really fun book. I like both Jays--calm down.

[@lenteandrrsin6409]

@@richbarnes2451 game changer

[@cubcash]

I miss this wilco

[@stevemelling9438]

Only just getting into Wilco (better late than never) and love this song.

[@Asshat237]

Albums 2-4 are by far the best. Jeff had a nasal surgery around 2005 and it changed the tone of his voice. I haven't enjoyed the sound of it nearly as much ever since.

[@mbartels]

It seems as though they tricked this audience into thinking the song was over four different times.

[@TheMaven]

Without question this version is the gold standard by which all other versions will be measured. Thank you so much for uploading this masterpiece.

[@JonnyBriers]

i don't know, i prefer the version on kicking television

[@panchobehrmann]

Probably the most loosely interpreted of Wilco's songs live- really like this one with the steel guitar

[@borrrrego]

one of the best bands ever

[@rwrushing]

This video explains fully why I love Wilco.

[@borrrrego]

also one of the best songs ever

[@doubleseven1237]

thank god for wilco!

[@nowweremad]

its a hard rock live from '97. they did a set then Roger Mcguinn came out and Wilco was his backing band. Performing So You Want to Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star & Mr. Spaceman together. had a VHS that vanished around Y2K. Awesome to have this performance but have always searched for the entire show.

[@apeek19]

Look at young Tweedy!!! wow

[@andrewholmes3116]

TJ Miller killin it on drums

[@tomsock218]

Look at that young handsome lad 😉

[@Bedianamight1]

Wow!!! Love this song And Was Fixing to go when I stopped to listen & litterally was 1/4 to 3 when i was lying in bed watching this video! as if it was ment to be at this time and place ot be listening as if it were for me personally!!

[@seancoyne3261]

Wow. Tweedy looks so young it it is a great version. I love their Tiny Desk sets, as good if different as this.

[@Wilco1972]

Wanna see young Tweedy... 1985 kzbin.info/www/bejne/lafcmZieg5xrmck hint: he's the one in the dress :D

[@deglispiriti]

Thank you for posting this with Jay (bon anima) and Ken. And it is brilliant.

[@okrajoe]

Inaccurate title -- greatest version!

[@SallyRoma33]

💯 😅

[@markdags]

You kidding me so good

[@theheartofablackbird2109]

Man, what happened to songs? No one writes like this anymore

[@sohrabborzoian3914]

Money has taken the place of Talent.

[@michaeldematteis3409]

Great song

[@kitikami]

Wow, Jeff looks a lot like his son Spencer here.

[@detectivesargeantbrucerobe6046]

Dayum, what a surprise, imagine that

[@meomiah9]

You mean Spencer looks like Jeff here.

[@strummersheroes]

God people consistently have to be dicks with their responses...what a shock

[@ashleypg1708]

I was gonna say Sammy!

Thank you....

hells yeah

[@misterbuckethead]

holy fuck this was awesome

[@MrMortarmanjohn]

jay Bennett died in 2009 age 45

[@jmarks73-STL]

John O'Meara Jay dying hit ALMOST as much as MCA.

[@sadymaher44]

He was si talented . So sad

[@magicpesto]

Anyone know what this show/performance was? VH1, but what?

[@ThePollmi01]

Does Jeff change the key to E in this version?

[@gripntie5589]

I think you’re right, might be for the sake of the pedal steel which is probably tuned open E.

[@ThePollmi01]

@@gripntie5589 nice, thanks! This version is great IMHO

[@MusicByTheMoon]

Different Jay. He mean's Jay Bennett who left Wilco after Foxtrot. Not Farrar.

[@solvealways]

does Jeff look like Jason Bateman?

[@richbarnes2451]

cross between him and Jim Breuer

[@kashmirsteve]

Kenny...Jay is alive and well, ever hear of son volt?

[@brianbriggs6479]

A very standard version.

[@bobberry5809]

the foolish audience keeps applauding at the breakdowns, like the song's done

[@juancho40416]

Ain't that enough - teenage fanclub

[@RunawayKim1]

Yeah, I'd love to know when and what this was. Great stuff. But PHiSH is still No.1 (Wilco is close to the top...)

[@zenarrrow]

Makes me wonder why tweedy doesn't pay any homage to Jay at live shows...?

[@quigzoffthewall]

No thing

[@SallyRoma33]

💯

[@stewartwallace8210]

I like live in Chicago version better

[@bartman7181]

WIlco and Mogwai are my favorite active band and this is the worst versipn of Misunderstood ive ever heard.
