I met Keith Richards in a cafe in london in 2017 and all i said to him was "i know your a busy man, i just want you to see a cover of Dead Flowers by a band called Fidlar on youtube", he told me he had seen it and thought it was good...most dumb struck moment of my life
This song has special meaning for me now. I was listening to this while taking care of my best friend. She was horribly sick. I didn't know how sick she was until it was too late. I couldn't see her for almost a year because of this Covid bullshit. Costa Rica wouldn't let me back in the country until Nov 1. When I got there, that's when she told she had been sick. She had become skeleton skinny. I took care of her for a week. She wouldn't go to the doctors. She believed in healing with fucking magnets. Didn't matter. Couldn't drive out because the heavy rains had made driving out impossible. On the day she agreed to go to see a doctor is the day she died. I miss her so much. Take care Ericka, where ever you are. I love you.
Damn Fidlar covers all the good junkie songs. Check out their awesome cover of Zevon's "Carmelita" Thanks for this guys, I'll be clean off heroin 3 years in March. Y'all keep me goin.
I know this is old but I've never understood why anyone does things like heroin, it's super addictive and coming off it seems so hard. I'll just stick to weed and acid
@@nameless31416its just C G F with little variation in chorus, but its always those 3 chords... U can also check out dead flowers by rolling stones and check tabs/covers for it, they just play it in different key

happy five years dude noe
still makes me cry, even after 4 years
Holy shit. Actual tears right now.
I love Zac’s voice more than anything dammit
don't make me cry, bro
I've seen The Rolling Stones, Townes Van Zandt, and FIDLAR play this and its all good
This is a great rainy day kind of vibe
I’m not crying, you are.
Weed tacos , tequila surfboards , whisky women & beer buddies = FIDLAR
Everybody got dead homies
People would definitely be more likely to stumble upon these awesome videos if you put your name in the title and tagged it "fidlar"

Next level
thought i was listening to andrew jackson jihad for a second
i would have loved to been the girl in the corner
Actually it's a Townes Van Zandt song fellas
It was actually written by the Rolling Stones, Townes Van Zandt just covered it.
thanks man. you're right.
+Claude Roux FUCK YOU THEY ARE BOTH WRONG!
Evan Mitchell nah man its the stones
Keith Richards wrote it in an attempt to attract the American audience.
is that max on the piano
Maisy McDermott I think it’s Elvis
I thought it was Max too, but who knows. I suppose it could be Elvis. Either way, great cover . . . . better than my old band did.
Maisy McDermott definitely elvis. torso too big to be max
I always thought it was a old woman. Like zachs grandmother or something just the way the voice sounds
I saw these dudes where in the area but they charge to much couldn’t afford it next time I’ll plan it out better and rob bank a day before. 😢
The dude abides
Fidlar kills it
Isn’t there another version of this cover they did?? I’m trying to find it
