Zevon was one of a kind. Died too young and left behind perhaps one of the greatest songs with Keep Me In Your Heart. Just an awesome man and musician. ❤❤❤❤❤
I saw Warren Zevon on his last interview on the late show with David Letterman and you would've thought he'd be back after a short period of time only to realize there would never be a next time!! R.I.P.
Judging from the timing and the biography I finished recently, this was a weird European promo tour where the record company wouldn't pay for the band to go, so Warren played with a recording. Nice that he shouted out Waddy Wachtel's solo, and I love finding live versions with his localized lyric changes.
I noticed that. The piano audio wasn't being picked up by a dedicated mic and I could hear it faintly from the vocal mic after the recording faded out. I could see he was unsure about the timing in the beginning before he started singing too and now it's clear that he knew the audio track wasn't going to wait for him so he needed to be spot on. Super weird and I feel bad for him. He should have done some kind of solo acoustic version and it might have become a hidden gem version in our time. Regardless it was nice to see him on my country's main talk show back then.
Trying to learn this on piano at the moment, all respect to Warren, amazing singer songwriter, being able to play and sing like this live at the same time takes immeasurable skill
According to an interview I saw with Warren this song is a tribute to Hunter S Thompson, I really can't see how no one gets it he said, just listen to the lyrics
...gotta say mahalo nui ("thanks a lot") for posting this absolutely Great performance... Warren (who's talents were indisputable within the circle of artists) was at one and the same time, the very epitome of the true Rock artist (in both his genius/skill), but also, a classic example of the very unsavory, outlandish, chronically-inebriated, sarcastic iconoclast that the "business-end" of the recording industry has never come to terms with.... he made Them Very uncomfortable (just one way We knew he was the real deal)...as those of Us who have been 'on the bus' for the 50 years after, as teens, We knew this was Our music, the ugly reality of an artform which Required a businessman-salesman (of what They called "The Product") to get-out-The-Word (& who were, themselves part-of the very issue the artists were singing-about/indicting) has been one essential block in the wall of what We have now made the 'music of the entire planet'.... an ever-uneasy symbiosis where people like Warren would never get the credit he so richly disturbs.... but.... Thanks for This addition to my library...
He sounds sound fucking good. I was not convinced it was going to be "live". But I suspect a backing track... He's playing for real, but you don't hear his live piano until the outro, no?

@@wynnssecret8584 , perhaps a lot of them had never heard the song before, and thought Warren made up some odd lyrics just to mess with them. Or perhaps they thought of themselves as sophisticates, and were still searching for the lyrics' inner truth.
Yeah, the show is called The Late Late show (technically the longest running talk show in the world, btw) at the time Ireland had a single TV station, if you wanted to promote anything it was pretty much the only place to go, on the other hand literally everyone watched it, fuck else are you going to do on a Friday night in 1981 in Ireland, so there's a very good chance that a whole load of his actual target audience got to see and were introduced to him. Also, there's an old couple in the middle of the audience who seem really in to it.
It always pisses me off when I hear the Kid Rock tune that stole this melody. They play that crap from him regularly where I live. I hear the first three notes and automatically think Warren. Then I get that poser, Rock.
To set this in context, if this was the Late Late Show, it is a weird, peculiarly Irish show. It is a mixture of talk show and town hall discussion. People in the audience would not be a typical music show audience...He was great though.

Gay
I'd like to meet his tailor.
Never knew that he graced our shores in Ireland back in 1981. Great performance !
Was that the last time he played in Ireland?
@@someoneelse101 Played Belfast with a band about 1988, seem to recall him solo in Dublin sometime after that
@@someoneelse101 I saw him at an open air in Mayo, 1982.
I used to think I could sing,was told I was good, had an injury to my throat now all I can sing is warren zevon. I am content!
ever tried singing some Randy Newman?
Same. C567 surgery. Had to cut open the neck to fuse the spine. Can feel a ceiling on my range now. Zevon it is!

+1 .. The call out for Waddy Wachtel's solo. .. A tough gig without the band,, when promoting an LP. .. Cheap MF'er David Geffen.
RIP Warren. ❤❤❤
We lost this guy too early.
Hard for me to imagine Warren in his seventies.
I remember this it was the Late Late Show, gosh Warren was Great.
Well at least he gave Waddy a shout out for playing guitar even though we didn't see him. He did co-write the thing.

One of many 70s singers rip not forgotten
He was a very handsome man ❤
YES. Took my breath away the first time I saw him...
This man had the voice and was so gifted love this song it was my dad's favorite song 💕 I loved the howl as well he did it perfectly

Missed opportunity for Werewolves of Dublin!
Love Warren !!!!
Wow!! 🔥😍🔥
Great song and I love the slide guitar!
He sounds sound fucking good. I was not convinced it was going to be "live". But I suspect a backing track... He's playing for real, but you don't hear his live piano until the outro, no?
Fucking Awesome

He was a hairy handed gent who ran him em up in Kent!!!🧟♂️❤️🔥👍🥳
It’s “ran amok in Kent”
irish tv is awsome
Best version
You said it
Happy Halloween 🎹🐺👍
Brilliant!!
The Zevon/Wachtel collaboration was a great one
Amazing hair
Yup. His hair was perfect!
"little old lady got mutilated late last night..." tongue twister lyric stream, go Warren!
I love W.Z. but I have to balk at the crowd applauding him in the TV studio! Yup, that's his crowd.. ya think?
🤘💯
Kid rock sampled the piano riff
I'm pretty sure he is over in Switzerland right now.?
A-whooooooo
“They were talking about Bruce Springsteen”
Dumb question - where is the rest of the band in this video? Is he singing live over prerecorded music?
Little old lady got mutilated late last night....greatest line ever
This mustn't be a special request. It should be a passage.
I saw who walking with the queen talking about Bruce Springsteen?
Warren and Bruce were close friends
I thought he might have said Lou Reed, but I didn't go back to listen again.
Maybe it's just me, but that didn't look like Warren's fanbase.
Based on the weak applause, it certainly didn't sound like it either .
@@joemag6032 .......Maybe they were jealous that the werewolf was from London (???)😉

F#@+ piano players but i do like this song and he went out on 😢 David letterman RIP hippie
Dig that invisible band.
no lipsyncing here boys
It's cool how the entire band is invisible.
British audiences! Dressed up ! Politely clapping lol in the states there would be chaos !
Not British, John ..Irish!
To set this in context, if this was the Late Late Show, it is a weird, peculiarly Irish show. It is a mixture of talk show and town hall discussion. People in the audience would not be a typical music show audience...He was great though.
It would have been awesome if he said, “Werewolves of Dublin” instead of London for this particular performance.
Well, to be fair to him, he did change Soho to O'Connell Street! :)
I can imagine Russell Crowe singing this
First!!😃
The song has no connection to An American Werewolf in London, which surprised me.
Everyone knows who runs London, srarts with J
More like Haitians of Springfield 😮
I'd like to meet Liz Taylor......jk
Karaoke is not "live".
My title doesn't mention his band being there, only Warren Himself... :)

@@two-toneblue4872 Read the other comments. Warren is playing live. He was forced to play live with a recorded band.
