So admire this guy. First a professional surfer, then successful recording artist. Always having been able to make a more-than-decent living on fun-to-do stuff he enjoys. If there is such a thing as "chosen people", he is truly one of them.
I think the reason Jack Johnson's songs are so godamn good is because he doesn't make them for money, he just does it cause he wants to. Although I'm sure he likes the money he makes from it too.
Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing You believed in superstitions Then maybe you'd see the signs Lord knows that this world is cruel And I ain't the Lord no I'm just a fool And a loving somebody don't make them love you Must I always be waiting, waiting on you? Must I always be playing, playing your fool? I sang your songs, I danced your dance I gave your friends all a chance Putting up with them wasn't worth never having you Aw, maybe you've been through this before But it's my first time so please ignore The next few lines 'cause they're directed at you I can't always be waiting, waiting on you I can't always be playing, playing your fool I keep playing your part But it's not my scene Want this plot to twist I've had enough mystery Keep building it up But then you're shooting me down But I'm already down Just wait a minute Just sitting, waiting Just wait a minute Just sitting, waiting Well if I was in your position I'd put down all my ammunition I'd wonder why it had taken me so long But Lord knows that I'm not you And if I was I wouldn't be so cruel Because waiting on love ain't so easy to do Must I always be waiting, waiting on you? Must I always be playing, playing your fool? No I can't always be waiting, waiting on you I can't always be playing, playing your fool, fool
Two of my favourite artists. I've never seen Jack Johnson, but I was lucky enough to see Ben Harper live this summer. Awesome, this is the music you need for just being chilled.
I realllly admire Johnson's vocal tone, and how it's so easy-going but still catchy.
It's not as easy as it sounds to sing like that!
Why?
He got a Grammy nomination for this tune he is amazing!!
Ben has one of the most beautiful improv guitar playing ever!!!
11 years later, I finally get a thumbs up. This is what dreams are made of.
Amazing how youtube crosses generations

Ben Harper estava sentado, esperando,.. desejando.... que a câmera focasse nele também.
+Fer S rsrsrs, eu tbm

Jack Johnson: One of our few modern legends...
That was ridiculously good 👍
A great musician and surfer! Aloha Jack
My son is 6 and has a guitar and always sings this song. I love it and so does he.
Man love this version. The intro is awesome.
Same!

Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing
You believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs
Lord knows that this world is cruel
And I ain't the Lord no I'm just a fool
And a loving somebody don't make them love you
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?
I sang your songs, I danced your dance
I gave your friends all a chance
Putting up with them wasn't worth never having you
Aw, maybe you've been through this before
But it's my first time so please ignore
The next few lines 'cause they're directed at you
I can't always be waiting, waiting on you
I can't always be playing, playing your fool
I keep playing your part
But it's not my scene
Want this plot to twist
I've had enough mystery
Keep building it up
But then you're shooting me down
But I'm already down
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Well if I was in your position
I'd put down all my ammunition
I'd wonder why it had taken me so long
But Lord knows that I'm not you
And if I was I wouldn't be so cruel
Because waiting on love ain't so easy to do
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?
No I can't always be waiting, waiting on you
I can't always be playing, playing your fool, fool
