His beginning monologue is perfect. I'm glad it was filmed.
Yes!
So profound too!
What a humble guy....and an excellent song writer.
G D Am C.......That's life
home of great songs, eh
doesnt matter what chords were used, what's important is how the chords were used
Yeeet
@@prod.radical720 best way to put it mate
Power chords in the verses. Open chords in the chorus.
semisonic was the most underrated thing ever
There should be more people in general like Dan Wilson, let alone musicians.
This is one of the greatest songs of my generation
Definitely reminds me of mixed feelings, the drunken state, the loves lost, the loves gained, friendships made, the staff trying to get us all to leave. Good and bad. Thank you.
a song about birth, death, and everything in between...a subtle masterpiece
...every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end... what a great line, Dan...
His voice is the perfect balance of rasp and silk. Amazing version. Sad I will never be this good tho lol
I just love this guys outlook on his song. I hate when musicians don’t play certain songs that fans love so I think this is the right perspective.
Closing Time - fantastic in every line
Remember my dear friend, who sadly died of cancer last year, loved this song
Miss you Karen
❤
His modesty when talking about the song makes it even better. A true masterpiece. Thanks, Dan
This song is a time machine!
Last song we played last day at the store we worked at. After we left a hour or so later it was permanently closed. I felt it appropriate after my 16 years of service.
Oh yeah. So appropriate, regardless of the scenario. Its fitting for the end. But hopefully opens a new beginning!
Pure talent! "Every new beginning comes from some other beginnings end" simple but true what a lyrical genius
I love this man
In the 70s I took my then girlfriend to see an artist by the name of Michael Murphy who had a hit by the title of "Wildfire" which he refused to play in a small venue in Atlanta (The Great Southeast Music Hall) and it really ruined the evening for me since it put her in a really bad mood. My only gratification was the beer I bought on a fake ID. Thank you Michael Murphy for nothing and thank you Dan for playing "Closing Time"
What a cool guy. That is the right outlook.
This is a great song. I was in a rock cover band and we used to close with this song. I got to play the keyboard part. It was one of my favorite songs we did.
1' 40" - Doesn't matter if you've played it a thousand times...we're only human!! Nice recovery Dan, now that's professional AAA+
my son hates this song ....because I play it so often!!
Wow, this guy has a fantastic voice and flawless rhythm. I always liked this song, but the record version was always too loud for me and I wanted an "acoustic" version. This version did not disappoint. It's literally perfect. Dan Wilson has some serious talent.
Cool dude
I'm 37. I share this with my 12 year old daughter. Thank you (even though I know the artist isn't reading this shit)
Great song! I love that he is grateful for his hit, and still loves to play it for everyone. He sounds awesome!!
Best Outro song ever...
I love how he wrote this song in twenty-five minute. I have some songs I've wrote that took me 10 minutes to think up and I love playing them. this is a song I learned and it doesn't matter if I'm closing a gig or finishing up a session playin on the street I always love finishing up with this song! its definitely one that doesn't get stale.
What an honour to produce something that has made it so strongly into the zeitgeist. I think he recognises that.
this is one of my favorite songs in the world and showing it with so muche simplicity did not affect the love i have for it... thank for the rest of my days, Dan Wilson. I mean it.
Incredibly humble guy. Talent off the chart. He wrote “Someone Like You”’ (and others) with Adele! And songs for/with Taylor Swift, Jason Mraz, John Legend, JoJo, Stevie Nicks, Gavin DeGraw, Panic At The Disco!, Weezer, HRry Connick Jr, Chris Stapleton, Florence + the Machine, Leon Bridges, Vance Joy, Lukas Graham, Noah Cyrus, just to name a few. One of the most prolific songwriters of our time!
Dan himself. This is how its done.
What a classic! I actually appreciate it more now than back when it first came out.
I want this played at my funeral ❤️🙏
Great song, makes me remember the past
love him
Many years ago ... like bartenders across the country I remember countless times hearing "closing time, last call for alcohol". Aahh, to be 23 again, and tending bar at the Oaks college hangout in Bloomington, Indiana.
This is a man who embodies the joy of music.
2017!! and still great song!! never get tired of this
your music its timeless
thanks idol🤘🏻
I think the fact that this video has no dislikes tells you everything about this song. One in a million track.
16 assholes now.
now 27
@@regularnimnule9715 yeah prob just doing it for attention
@@flishyfish922 thanks for drawing my attention to a comment 5 years ago, it's cool 🙂
I love this song, even though I was born on the year of 2005, I'm glad that I have a thing for music before my time, I just wish semisonic got famous then.
P.S. Loved" Singing In my sleep" too
Great attitude. Great song.
The chord's maaan... This is the first Song I learned to play in a guitar 🎸🎸🎸🎸

I love this guy

Closing time, open all the doors
And let you out into the world
Closing time, turn all of the lights on
Over every boy and every girl
Closing time, one last call for alcohol
So, finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time, you don't have to go home
But you can't stay here
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
Closing time, time for you to go out
To the places you will be from
Closing time, this room won't be open
Till your brothers or your sisters come
So, gather up your jackets, move it to the exits
I hope you have found a friend
Closing time, every new beginning
Comes from some other beginning's end, yeah
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
Closing time, time for you to go out
To the places you will be from
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
Closing time, every new beginning
Comes from some other beginning's end
EXELENTE!!!!!
awesome bridge
Cool!!!
NOW 1 ♡ I knew every word, I was in the 5th grade, I didn't even know what closing time meant...ha ♡
Dan Wilson é um dos melhores músicos e compositor que eu já ouvi. Suas musicas irão ficar pra sempre comigo.. o cara é um gênio e passa isso pro papel e ´pro violão.. Dan, você é foda
Desmond Hume Pode crer...
Ouvia dessa música no colégio com uma namorada q eu gostava. Bons tempos.
I Said that Dan was one of the best songwrittes I had the opportunitie to hear, and his Songs Will Always make part of my life.
bruh thats perfect
Hey Dan the man it's Heath franks from teen challenge worked in the kitchen with you
Commendable
#Legend
The right attitude top man .
My funeral song
Sigh. Perfect.
Dan looks like he should be a Professor of English Literature in some small private college.
El puto amo.
I hope You have found a friend :)
secret smile was a bigger hit in the UK
i hope you have found a friend :)
Andy from the Office brought me here
If it's closing time why is he still here? Or is the song called closing time?
#Kindandhumble
any1 knows what gibson is he playin?
Is it just me or does he look just a tad bit like Colin Firth
Anybody remenber Denise?
Which Gibson is he playing?
Southern Jumbo model
Dan is an amazing tunesmith, he also co-wrote “Ours” with Sam Endicott from The Bravery and it’s one of the catchiest songs of the last decade: czcams.com/video/Xkyw8AAFGwI/video.html
Garth from waynes world.
Great song, yet that Gibson!
+leesmartin The sound of it is truly amazing.
+Wim Dekker agreed, it has a beautiful sound
I browsed through a bunch of comments and didn’t see any about the real meaning of the song. This song has a double meaning and if you didn’t know the other side of the story check out this version:
