#themainsqueeze #gravity - Hudba
My late wife passed from cancer at age fifty-five in January 2019 after a three year fight.
In May 2019 my daughter invited me to a music festival in the Santa Cruz mountains, as I hadn’t been to any live music since her passing. Was reluctant to go, but went at the last minute and the Main Squeeze was playing, didn’t know anything about them, but by the time they were done, I and my daughter had been blown away. That day their music cleansed my soul and I felt alive again.
Saw them twice after that and always stunning.
Fast forward to this video, and my wife’s favorite artist and song by John Mayer was gravity. During her fight she had tattooed on her shoulder “keep me were the light is, as her motto to beat her cancer, sadly it did not happen. I have watched too many Main Squeeze videos to count since then, and when I saw this video pop up, I had to watch it.
As always truly stunning and was loving it. When Corey started to sing “keep me were the light is, and the way he and the others sang it I lost it, as those were my wife’s words of hope during her struggle.
Rest In Peace my beautiful Julie, our time together was a beautiful journey. You are missed, but know you are at peace.
Thank you Main Squeeze, the whole song by all was wonderful, you touched my soul.
Wow - that’s amazing. I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m glad you are found some healing through their music.
Tears went down as i read your comment, man.
💜
So sorry Louis, hope you can find some healing through music, Julie was loved is all that matters
Tears went down as i read your comment, man. [2]
Came expecting a great Max's solo. Didn't get disappointed.
First, this is not the song for a 'great' solo. And what Max played here is way above the pay grade of many guitarists.
@@kumararup188 dude he was complimenting him
Woow
Soul oh! 🔔🎶🎸
@@kumararup188 how is this not the song for a great solo? John does a amazing solo to it every time he does the song lol
This band is grossly underestimated. These guys should be superstars. But I’m glad they are producing their music. Amazing
Before, like, 70s, 80s , 90s, good ones were the famous ones, but nowadays it's not. I think it's from 00s.
All I can say is that these guys have "it." I don't know their backstory, don't need to. What I know is that everything vibes. The rhythm section is so seamless and in the pocket which allows every individual part to express maximum soul. I've not heard a single piece by these guys that doesn't rock in it's own personal way. Love it!
Rocket sauce.
These guys used to play at The Bluebird in Bloomington, Indiana on Wednesday nights with $0.15 beers on top. Fifteen cents. These guys have worked for a decade to get where they are, honing their craft all the while.
I would love to travel back in time to those days and see them at the bluebird when they were coming up. I've absorbed their discography over the last few years and I'm a big fan, to me they're legendary already.
@@JimKopriva fax, I used to play shows with them and just KNEW they would make it
Rick Beato keeps asking what happened to guitars and good singing. Come on Rick, join us over here in the Squeeze house. The whole band kills it every time. That conversation between Max's guitar and Corey's voice..... brought tears.
I agree. But...these guys are known for covers of old hits. Rick is looking for new music and it's slim pickings these days.
@@larrys009 check some of their originals.
It’s covers. Great covers, but still covers.
Glad to know I'm not the only one who's crying! First notes, I was done. Those people who didn't like this, must be tone deaf.
Some of the covers they’ve done dont do well with that softer voice. The Rage song is a good example.
I feel like after this we have to start having a serious discussion about Max and his place among the all time great guitarists. Seriously absolutely blows me away every time.
I've seen a lot of squeeze and honestly, i've thought the same thing. i try and go back and forth and talk myself out of putting him as an all time great, because he's just one part of such musical excellence that are for some mystifying reason not one of the most known bands of this calibre, but i mean...the solos and overall commitment to the songs is so apparent, his phrasing and touch and tone are truly just....all time great. he's for real. max is up there, man
I don't even usually like electric guitar shredding but Max is seriously challenging the boundaries of what I listen to because of his skill - his technique and musicality is mesmerising. Each member of the band is very talented and I'm very glad a friend from church recommended these boys.
@@ace88bf I know right, it's a weird feeling. It's like, because Squeeze aren't a huge mainstream band, and they have this amazing sort of cult following, that maybe I'm missing something, and maybe there is something that the greats have that he doesn't, but the more of the videos that drop, the more I think the rest of the world is just absolutely sleeping on it.
I'm hearing double stops, Mayer rakes and Gilmour bends, the guy has increased his arsenal of techniques and really should be getting the recognition he deserves. If Derek Trucks can get his name on those top lists, so can Max.
Agreed. I'm completely hooked. Absolutely brilliant.
Yeah, it sounds crazy to say given how low profile these guys are, but... he really is something. He's that good.
John Mayer would probably come over and sit in on this with them. I would LOVE to see Max and John Mayer trade off on some guitar greatness! And John Mayer loves jamming with people so..... maybe🤷♂️
If you’re not swaying back and forth to this banger, you ain’t human
Is it a staircase?
This IS better than the original. All of you, bravo. 😭
I've just gotten into the habit of liking first and enjoying second. Hasn't steered me wrong yet.
We used to cover this song in my band, kept it pretty much like the album version, it never got a ton of response but we kept playing it. A few years ago, I lead off into the outro solo, and for whatever reason, I turned to my brother (the drummer) and told him "Pick it up, let's go" and he did, and we did. Turned up the guitar and we ended it very much like theyre doing here. Huge reaction, and it instantly became a must play song.
Music wizards. I'm delighted.
I went to college "with" these guys and they were freakin' awesome back then. Somehow they're even light years past that now. Absolutely insane.
That was literally the best cover I've ever heard. The vocal performances, the guitarist, the tightness of the band, absolute perfection.
I can only imagine this is what you hear while you ascend to Heaven.
I like to imagine this is what i hear while i descend to hell
Bro the singer and guitarist vibing at the end was everything. SO dope!
Damn if I wasn't absolutely moved to tears, sobbing listing to that solo... Damn Max, that went straight into my soul!
Came back after 2 years to re watch this. Such a beautiful masterpiece.
The soul/gospel style of singing adds so much to this song. Great effort!
John Mayer should be honored and feel blessed. What a cover.
I was never a huge Mayer guy but I've been obsessed with the Live in LA version of this song recently so it's cool / weird timing to see this pop up now haha. Rock in Rio 2013 is pretty stellar too. Along with his new album I'm kinda becoming a fan now.
Mayer’s best stuff is not the commercial stuff. Sometimes his best stuff doesn’t even get onto a studio album but only a live one. For instance check out “Covered in Rain” from Any Given Thursday. Thank me later.
The Continuum album is one of my desert island albums. I used to feel exactly like you and kinda took the same path. I discovered Mayer was awesome around 2009ish with his opening blues jam at Crossroads. He’s a hell of a guitar player and song writer. Anything else about him, I could care less because I don’t pay attention to it.
echoing previous comment: his best stuff is often harder to find. John Mayer Trio has some of my favorite songs--Another Kind of Green for example--and John's cover of "Small Worlds" by Mac Miller is arguably his best cover (which honestly is saying a lot because John's covers are fabulous).
@@MathewsGuitarWorks I've been aware of his talent since around the time of Continuum but I just never really delved in too deeply. I did like Heartbreak Warfare when it came out, then I really didn't listen to anything he made until New Light and that sent me backward through his other records. I like a lot of the Born and Raised stuff.
@@johnulcer The more you listen the better you’re gonna like it. Continuum is such a good album. The guitar playing and tone is out of this world. Take it easy✌️.
I need this stuff on spotifyyyyyyy
This is why I have youtube music
I get chills every time that man has a guitar solo.
Yes! Own it god dammit this band is great
Come to Brazil, already
Ualllll! When are going to release an album with these versions of yours? This one, While my Guitar Gently Weeps, Hotel California, etc, etc, etc! It will be a best selling album guys! Greetings from Spain 👏👏👏🎸🎶😍
This is not a cover, this is something else. Freaking awesome. Congrats guys!
The beginning makes me feel like I'm in space.
Wow. I miss these feelings. Like leaving the bluebird at 4am.. feeling more alive and refreshed then ever before.
that voice wow
i cliked on like as soon as the first note has hit my ears
This an amazing cover. Props to all involved.
That camera man needed to let Max and Corey stay where the light was. 😂
I feel that was the idea. Just my thought Fri night at 201 am
Max proving that giving notes in a solo enough time to breath is far better than a 100 notes a second any day of the week .
Wait, who the fuck are these guys?! Clicked on it randomly from my recommended vids and was absolutely BLOWN AWAY! You fellas killed it! Automatic sub immediately!
Always great covers but this is the best since “Have a Cigar.”
agreed man, their cover of have a cigar is crazy
No Quarter. Fuck me, their rendition of that song is so good.
While my guitar gently weeps could be squeezed in there with the top three…. No pun intended.
oh my..so soulfull. i hope John sees that
" Bugger me is it possible that this band just keeps getting better and better"
The way his solos build is incredible. Every one starts as a soft skillful serenade, then builds more and more until finally hitting the point that pulls me to a place that’s filled with emotion, goosebumps and intensity.
Click like first, then watch video! You know the drill everyone
Oh yeah. The usual.
Never thought somebody could play a solo over Gravity and get to Mayer´s level...but you my friend, you did it!!
Oh FUCK YEAH! This is FINALLY what I've been talking about! You truly hit that mark and bridged the gap between the singer and the band and turned it into a cohesive substance! AND IT SOUNDS AMAZING!! Congratulations, and credit where it's due!
I don’t know what this means but keep on diggin’ it dude
I've been a fan for sometime. I agree, they filled that gap this time.
Max “what guitar what used on the recording? Interesting, SG it is”. To me he’s literally the best example of why it doesn’t matter if you have the licks and soul and should stop chasing gear and practice.
Every part of this group is fantastic, but, being a guitarist, I notice that Max brings touch dynamics to a whole new realm every single time.
Guitar player is out of this world. What an amazing band!
When I was 17 my closest family member and cousin, passed away at the young age at 25, a year younger than I am today. I've had a lot of trouble listening to this song ever since, john was our favorite, and this was by far his. For the first time in my life I've been able to get through this song without sobbing and just smiled thinking about how much he'd love this version, thank you guys. Music really does some incredible things
That's beautiful
the feel on this one is crazy
there is simply no better thing happening to the artist than Main Squeeze covering his or her song
such a privilege to be able to listen to you
Guitarist: Perfectionism at is finest
each member of this band has elite talent
Please come to El Paso, Texas and perform at our Neon Desert Music Festival! You guys would be absolutely perfect for it! Much love! 👍
Hearing this song with that SG fullness… especially when the dude can absolutely slay on that thing… bliss.
But you hear that brilliant bass work? Lord.
Let me be clear folks, only talent do not produces covers this level. This is a combination of love, talent, hard work, years off selfgiving and a little big touch off god behind. Thnks for everything ! Keep rocking !
I wish I could like this twice
that guitar solo gave me goose bumps ive never turned something up so loud and just say there with my eyes closed that was awesome
Unbelievable. It’s a spiritual experience.
Didn't know you could get goosebumps on your goosebumps
I actually love he is playing this on a SG and no a SS or strat
Watched again…take all my fenders. I need an SG
Maximillian once again with an epic solo!!!!
Inject Max's guitar playing into my veins! I can't get enough of it - he keeps it up, and he may knock David Gilmour off my number one spot. Unreal feel!
Thank You MAIN SQUEEZE.
No reason you guys should just have 232 thousand subscribers. You guys should be at 232 million. You guys are amazing! Never disappointed and always amazed!
This band knows where the Light IS!
Hell. Yes. Boys.
That SG has a remarkable Telecaster tone to it in this song. I dare say some very nice EQ analysis has been done on those humbuckers to get that tone. It sounds beautiful.
One of the most amazing bands I’ve ever heard. I’m just in awe
I got GOOSEBUMPS from that one!
I hope Mayer peeps this. You guys always rock but Max is truly something else.
That guitarist has incredible feel and tone too. That singer too! Got dayum!
simply perfect
I think this may be the best cover band on CZcams
I'm crying, just discovered The Main squeeze for myself, great performance of legendary song, great sound, and soulful, Thank you! You guys touched my soul!
This song got me through Summer 2021. Only a couple of days after this song premiered, I had to admit to myself that I was falling for a woman that I know was falling for me. There was mutual attraction - gravity. But I was already deeply invested on many levels and for many years with another woman, my other half. Here I was dreaming of ways of throwing it all away, and starting something with the new woman. Luckily it all remained just a dream, and didn't become reality or a nightmare. I am still in the light with my lady, and I never allowed myself and the other woman to get close enough to be anything but acquaintances, we're not even friends. When I hear this song, I think of the other woman, but all she is is just another beautiful woman to me that provided me a beautiful dream, not reality.
Y'all gotta do a Q&A on Max's board someday. I've seen a lot of effects boards, but DAMN that looks gnarly.
Mayer would be proud ❤️
I just discovered your music today and I'm an instant fan.
My neck is hurting from the swaying, my face is numb from the constant "OUUU" to wide smiles.
This was an amazing journey.
From that organ to the backing vocals to Max's solo and Corey's vocal chops.
Outta this world.
Dat SG for this song - such a hot sound
Still the absolute answer. Go guys go
The Main Squeeze's own "Since I've been loving you"
Love it!
That was bad ass
Beautiful all around
I love how at 7:31 you can see that minor 7th to major 7th bend flow through Max's body as he hits it in his solo. I felt that.
Wow, this is great. Had to watch it twice in a row.
Y'all can play any song in the world!
Wahouuu, …some pure main squeeze
The things I'd do to hear this live
😭💕👌
The mix on your music is so unreal for a live performance!
It being live doesn't make a difference to the ability to mix it, they'll be recording loads of different tracks during this performance.
That AUDIO ENGINEER is a KEEPER Guys!!! 🙏💜
Awesome Max!!!
(Maximus GUITARIST!!!😉)
BEST ‘UNKNOWN’ I’ve EVER HEARD!!!! YOU ROCK!!!💜👍✨
AS ALL of you do!!!🙏
I love the band as a whole - but I’d be lying if I didn’t acknowledge this Max fella. Props to his band mates for creating the space for him to do his thing. Gotta be some of the best guitar work you will hear today. That said - awesome cover. Best i’ve heard and it isn’t close.
...just noticed "the light" is over Max and they were certainly keeping it where the light was for that killer solo at the end.
Max takes U 2 the Max. His solos are always off the chain! The brother can definitely play that axe!
Band chemistry like this doesn’t just happen overnight
Best actual band! Best guitar player, smooth as f... technical... feeling up to heaven...
This is by far, the best cover of this song I've ever heard. Spectacular!
This is the real music...amazing!
Everyone wAnts a hug from the main squeeze hug alway & 4ever everyone can they"re gonna beround 4 a long time can we all tell
I saw y’all in Bloomington when you were starting out. It makes me so happy to see how far you’ve come. I hope to see you at the bird soon.
Goosebumps.
Fashionable boots, ballet slippers, skateboard shoes and basketball ballers is the footwear combination of great music. Best band on CZcams
I am pretty sure if John Mayer watch this performance, he would be proud that Main Squice covers his song😎
I’m lost for words. This is pure magic.
