Amazing how after hundreds of years of modern music, there are still excellent songwriters coming up with chord progressions that hit like something you've never heard. Such a beautiful song.
@@talyobirdsey Not as per yt views, just half a million views for such a great song (czcams.com/video/USMsgVbf8Us/video.html). I'm sorry to break it to you bud, that is is the definition of underratedness.
If you can write lyrics like "every one is a burning sun" and You were right about the stars, each one is a setting sun" without sounding corny, you are THE MAN. Jeff Tweedy, ladies and gents.
@@prodevus maybe for the old timers like you Frippy. Conan had more up and coming “indie” bands. Granted letterman had his fair share too….I’ll concede my position though and say that live music is awesome, it’s not a contest.
Give a listen to Badley Drawn Boy. You will ask yourself. Where has he been hiding all these years. But! He won the Mercury award in Europe. Best album of the year.
Jesus, don't cry You can rely on me, honey You can combine anything you want I'll be around You were right about the stars Each one is a setting sun Tall building shake Voices escape singing sad, sad songs Tuned to chords, strung down your cheeks Bitter melodies turning your orbit around Don't cry You can rely on me, honey You can come by any time you want I'll be around You were right about the stars Each one is a setting sun Tall buildings shake Voices escape singing sad, sad songs Tuned to chords, strung down your cheeks Bitter melodies turning your orbit around Voices whine Skyscrapers are scraping together Your voice is smoking Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around Our love Our love Our love is all we have Our love Our love is all of God's money Everyone is a burning sun Tall buildings shake Voices escape singing sad, sad songs Tuned to chords, strung down your cheeks Bitter melodies turning your orbit around Voices whine Skyscrapers are scraping together Your voice is smoking Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around
@@joebloe1401 she is exceptional and does a beautiful version but it doesn't pull at the heartstrings like Wilco's version does and her band doesn't get the opening right and that's one of the best parts of the song
It's such a beautiful and tender song, my favorite from the album. I just wanna weep for joy and gratitude. Jeff Tweedy's lyrics and music are simply matchless and I'm struck with wonder. Americana larger than life and of decisive importance. God bless this wonderful band and God bless America! ☀️
of all performances ill never forget the fourth time i saw wilco. july fifteenth 2015. after nineteen songs they left the stage and the equipment was taken off, we all thought the show was over, but then outcomes jeff tweedy and nels cline with acoustics and the drummer returned. the pretty blonde guy took to just a tamborine and they played this song and then seven more before leaving. it turns 0ut it was the last show before they started touring the Star Wars album. best show of my life except maybe the modest mouse and brand new tour
They're great but there are literally thousands of artists active right now with songwriting as good if not better than wilco. Sufjan stevens, mark kozelek, laura marling, justin vernon, robin pecknold, bjork, the list goes on and on
@@ggthewhale I have to agree with you about sufjan Stevens. I've yet to discover the others, but thanks for the tip. I'm assuming you have listened to the bulk of Wilco's catalog. Tweedy just resonates with 56 year old me.
@@pauld205 you'll love sun kil moon (mark kozelek). Try listening to his songs ålesund, carry me ohio and carissa, he's like a more mature version of sufjan. Fleet foxes (robin pecknold) is probably the best folk band today, listen to their album helplessness blues if you can. I'm sure you'll love it
@@ggthewhale "thousand" is bit of a stretch but your recommendations are pretty good. I would add Titanic rising by Weyes Blood The new abnormal by The Strokes Virtue by The voidz Humbug by Arctic monkeys Funeral, Neon Bible by Arcade Fire Sleep well beast, Boxer by The National Turn on the bright lights, antics, ours to admire by Interpol, Veckatimest, Sheids by Grizzly bear, Depression cherry,7, bloom by Beach house Twin fantasy by Carseat headrest Currents, Lonerism by Tame impala Other artists with good stuff : Deerhunter, Franz Ferdinand, Beirut, The Shins, Iron&Wine, Bright eyes.
Hi Wilco fans! Close your eyes and listen to Badley Drawn Boy. Can you hear a difference? I was always surprised no one ever talks about that. Both have great unique voices.
This is their best song among many good songs. Impossible Germany is great on a live version that is on here unless they took it down. Jeff new song with his son is good .. WARM.
Wonderful melody, smooth deliverance. Love this song. Anyone know what year this was? Just saw Wilco this past summer, they were great and played this song.

Actually it's not... the first time I heard this song was in their documentary, "I am trying to break you heart" (highly recommended). Their "demo" of this song wasn't decked out with violin and I absolutely fell in love with this song. When I heard the album version I was really disappointed with the added string stuff. I suppose it's what you're used to... but to me this is the version... the strings are a bit cheesy and unnecessary.
I will never tire of listening to this song.
One of the prettiest songs I've ever heard.
It is gorgeous.
try nora jones live youtube version much better!!
@@joebloe1401 LOL. No.
@@joebloe1401 The Magic 8 Ball - and anyone with ears - says “No!”
For sure
Amazing how after hundreds of years of modern music, there are still excellent songwriters coming up with chord progressions that hit like something you've never heard. Such a beautiful song.

if you like this, loma - ocotillo hits similarly.
similar in mood I'd recommend anything by the band Spice Girls
shut the fuck up. plenty of “modern music” is really good. and wilco still fucking makes music making them modern music too anyway. fucking moron.
Language Timothy
One of the coolest songs of all times. Both the mood it creates and musical arrangements/composition - terribly TERRIBLY underrated.
Not terribly underrated. You love, I love it, so do a few hundred thousand other folks. It's doing okay. I agree though, it's a masterpiece
hardly underrated. this song is universally adored and appreciated

@@joebloe1401 Thanks for the recommendation, I was totally unaware of Nora Jones's cover of this. It was a revelation!

Somehow, this songs pulls me out of this damned darkness I have fallen in ...thank you Wilco
You are so right! It is a wonderful and balm for the soul!
I listen to this while taking massive dumps. I'm doing it right now as a matter of fact. It cleanses my soul and my bowels. Wonderful.
ur my hero

Beautiful girl.
If you can write lyrics like "every one is a burning sun" and You were right about the stars, each one is a setting sun" without sounding corny, you are THE MAN. Jeff Tweedy, ladies and gents.
“Our love is God’s money”. That does not come from a normal brain. He is a genius with the incumbent social anxiety from what I can see.
Tune two chords..🍄🎼
the greatest band of the last 25 years
There's only two, really: Wilco and Radiohead.
Every once in a while there's a song that hits me and sticks to me and I play it to death and love it forever. This is one of those songs.
One of the top Wilco songs I think by anyone's estimation. A real standard. A beauty.
Our love ... our love is all of God's money
😥 ❤️
Letterman always had the best musical guests.
@Brian Okay Brian ya silly goose
try nora jones live youtube version much better!!
Conan did
@@brummms2862 Love Conan but Letterman had the best musical guests bar none. He had Bob Dylan for fucks sake

First dance at my wedding. So beautiful x
try nora jones live youtube version!!
love that
wonderful choice
That Gibson SG is beauty.
Such a beautiful song and this live performance is amazing. Wilco is amazing!!!!!
Just getting into Wilco. Huge Replacements fan. These guys remind me so much of the Folky side of The Replacements. Good stuff.
Their early stuff is alternative country more than folk. Then Tweedy made this album. The one after it is great too
@@williamclark6233 The one before this one is amazing too. I think summerteeth is my favourite wilco album.
Give a listen to Badley Drawn Boy. You will ask yourself. Where has he been hiding all these years. But! He won the Mercury award in Europe. Best album of the year.
@@dougpotosky4102 Big fan. Been listening since early 2000's
dude you need to hear Golden Smog
I want this band live forever!!
This song is so precious.
such a simple, honest, beautiful tune
I need to like this several hundred times
Outstanding, magical 🪐🪐🪐
Wilco needs more love
They just sold out most of the Santa Barbara bowl in about an hour, but the more love the better.
just discovered them last week! they're great!
This is my favourite song ever
Jesus, don't cry
You can rely on me, honey
You can combine anything you want
I'll be around
You were right about the stars
Each one is a setting sun
Tall building shake
Voices escape singing sad, sad songs
Tuned to chords, strung down your cheeks
Bitter melodies turning your orbit around
Don't cry
You can rely on me, honey
You can come by any time you want
I'll be around
You were right about the stars
Each one is a setting sun
Tall buildings shake
Voices escape singing sad, sad songs
Tuned to chords, strung down your cheeks
Bitter melodies turning your orbit around
Voices whine
Skyscrapers are scraping together
Your voice is smoking
Last cigarettes are all you can get
Turning your orbit around
Our love
Our love
Our love is all we have
Our love
Our love is all of God's money
Everyone is a burning sun
Tall buildings shake
Voices escape singing sad, sad songs
Tuned to chords, strung down your cheeks
Bitter melodies turning your orbit around
Voices whine
Skyscrapers are scraping together
Your voice is smoking
Last cigarettes are all you can get
Turning your orbit around
Last cigarettes are all you can get
Turning your orbit around
Last cigarettes are all you can get
Turning your orbit around
I love this song. Always has so much meaning.
Love the words and feelings this song stirs. Under appreciated
How can one dislike this song is beyond me!! Simply superb
1:16 who need violins?
fucking goosebumping
Everything about this version is beautiful, love it
Intro always Causes Shivers!
Nels Cline is a beast.
Eric Jaworski agree
Definitely.

It's so good!!!! That's all I can say, beautiful and brilliant.
Wow!! And what an absolutely incredible LIVE performance!!
Great song. Great band. Great performance. Great post. Thx. pcHux.

in my personal extra-long list of the best songs of all times, this is number 2
never hear Wilco on the radio.but try to get a ticket to any of their shows
The most gorgeous version…so laid back it’s almost horizontal, velvet streets 2 a.m.
Great live version 👌
File that one under masterpiece. Nice work Mr. Tweedy.
God, I miss those old Letterman shows.
Best version of this song ever. I thought i has lost it. Thank you Daniel MG for posting this....legend!!!
exactly, thx daniel mg:)
Undoubtedly, Wilco is a legend and this interpretation is for me one of the best
+eggmaaan what year was this?

Fleet foxes (robin pecknold) is probably the best folk band today, listen to their album helplessness blues if you can. I'm sure you'll love it
@@ggthewhale "thousand" is bit of a stretch but your recommendations are pretty good. I would add
Titanic rising by Weyes Blood
The new abnormal by The Strokes
Virtue by The voidz
Humbug by Arctic monkeys
Funeral, Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Sleep well beast, Boxer by The National
Turn on the bright lights, antics, ours to admire by Interpol,
Veckatimest, Sheids by Grizzly bear, Depression cherry,7, bloom by Beach house
Twin fantasy by Carseat headrest
Currents, Lonerism by Tame impala
Other artists with good stuff : Deerhunter, Franz Ferdinand, Beirut, The Shins, Iron&Wine, Bright eyes.
Thanks Pedro Pascal for this wonderful music!!

Tupelo Mississippi. Best and finest.
This is a damn good lineup…
Oh my good, my gosh y mi Dios! Great live version.
Incredible song, wish I could write lyrics like that
Id settle for his knack at writing long chord progressions
you CAN
Love, love this song!!! :)
thanks! We love wilco!
Hi Wilco fans! Close your eyes and listen to Badley Drawn Boy. Can you hear a difference? I was always surprised no one ever talks about that. Both have great unique voices.
beautiful
As close as we'll get to an American Beatles.
Maervelous. Thanks guys
Loved it !
This is their best song among many good songs. Impossible Germany is great on a live version that is on here unless they took it down. Jeff new song with his son is good .. WARM.
those are my two favorite Wilco songs - Jesus etc and Impossible Germany
Tweedy’s the man
Love it. Had forgotten the title. So good to find this again. X
So good.
Beauty
Man.. so essence
The best song!
LOVE!
Could have been the album version. Perfect
Coincido contigo!
Just 💘 vely!!!
Brutal una joya
Wonderful melody, smooth deliverance. Love this song. Anyone know what year this was? Just saw Wilco this past summer, they were great and played this song.
I’m thinking 2003
Thank you Daniel MG

Have a listen to Bill Fay’s version …. Just awesome
oh I love it
Genius
Wonderful
great !
Imma be honest I wish the organ was in the recording
It is killer. 😁
try nora jones live youtube version much better!!
I wish it wasn't in this one. Hate that tone.
I like it, but the fiddle intro digs into my soul.
Awesome! Land Ho! got back together and changed their name to Wilco!

Strung down your cheeks
Bitter melodies turning your orbit around
Don't cry
You can rely on me honey
You can come by any time you want

Last cigarettes are all you can get
Turning your orbit around
Our love
