"So Young" is by far their best song.
Purple, Yellow, Red, and Blue
The bassist's voice is so low like a BASS haha
He sounds like H3H3
Modern jesus, the best portugal the man song ever. Now they getting real recognition. I love how they go back to that song.
Preach bro!
Jesus and smile are so good
i used to have a playlist of 50 songs and it was just Modern Jesus on repeat haha... it was a depressing time for me but that song is absolutely magnificent!
100% agree!
I just want them to get on stage and open/close with an Anatomy of a Ghost song *so badly* it almost hurts...
It's so weird man. All their earlier albums has some of the best songs I've ever heard and have such a psychedelic and trippy rock vibe. To think they wanted to buy a melody after all these years of making music seems... strange to me. It would feel strange getting a lot of recognition finally off of the first melody you didn't write...
I think those melodies only enhance the throwback in the song to the past.
Are you one of those pretentious and condescending people who think that you know what Portugal. The Man’s style is better than the band themselves?
@@NutjobChuck buying a song is not their style… cause like… they didn’t make it… therefore… not their style.. get it?
@@CGMillerIf you didn’t notice, they made it their own, yes? And almost no song, no-thing in general, starts from scratch. They took inspiration, added their own bass line and everything, it hardly sounds like Mr. Postman. And it’s one of their best songs. Is it one of my favorite songs of theirs? No, but it’s getting on my nerves these people who write off the Evil Friends album and Woodstock because, well… for what? They like to gatekeep and they’re mad that their niche band is getting wider recognition?
Wasilla, alaska???? goddamn my home town no wayyy
Me too
small world huh
They were so right. Modern jesus is a solid hit. And my favorite song
I feel Portugal. The Man fills that one trendy indie rock spot for mainstream audience. Once filled by Gotye, once filled Foster The People.
and then something new gonna come along the way.
to be clear, i'm a fan of three of them. but in term of sustainabilty in mainstream audience, i'm kinda skeptic about it.
I hope i'm wrong.
Yeah, def heading into one-hit wonder territory. It doesn't help that they're not that great live.
goldwincs yep their stage peformance is not very great.
But they always nailed their acoustics performance
What venue have you seen them at? It doesn't seem like they are great in those big venues but I have seen them in a smaller performance and it was amazing
MrTechselect you should definitely check out their older stuff, studio albums and live performances. Both were significantly better back when they weren't in their mid-thirties with children. Anything from 2006 -07 to like 2012-13 is golden and worth the listen.
daffa wilson the fact they don't use a laptop on stage like most groups says a lot. Check out some of their older live shows from the mid 2000s. Much more energy back when they were in their twenties and not signed to a major label.
thank you , très passionnant et enrichissant et divertissant interview peoples
Ce frenglish degueulasse
Great band ))) Great music ))
it's so Interesting how John created to be as a songwriter and write his owns song's like this one he put his thought's, feeling's, and emotion's to create a song. Come along with Zach is that he imagens things like how should we do this, and how to put lyrics to a song like this one. You see Collaboration is that you have to get to know Justin better and have to get to know Coldplay better why because you have to introduce your self and introduce a song .
Paint me that river useing shades of blues
Am I the only one who thinks John looks like this era Anthony Kiedis?
no way , John is a white boy...AK has the Native American look
I agree, I think people say & modern Jesus are Grammy winners. As well as, sea of air, colors, so American... etc etc. I just love all their stuff.
The Marveletts and PTM! Aaaaaaaaa!!!
Now this sounds like Avi Kaplan and Mitch Grassi when they talk😂
we flail onto morning stars
I thought it had some Mr. Postman melody sound!
The only band that the bassist is one of the main members
Their album stannic satanist is amazing from start to finish.
I love Modern Jesus
Colors best song ever written by them
I was listening to portugal back during the satanic satanist, they had a band before they became ptm, i cant remember the name, i was always into their stuff then i seen them live at starry nights in 2012 in bowling green ky and was blown away, been a fan since, hope you guys the best.
Holy Ghost! If I remember correctly
Anatomy of a Ghost
i loved anatomy of a ghost haha been a ptm fan since they started
Modern jesus and people say are two of their best songs.. Way better than feel it still
The way they described how they literally
Paid for a hit song to rewrite and remarked it as another hit literally is the DEFINITION of SELLOUT
I dont understand this part
