This song ran through my head for 12 consecutive days on a long distance hike I did in September. When I got spooked by bears, I started singing it out loud.
I didn't think a song could grow on you so much during just the first listen. At first I was thinking "yeah okay, nice, but not particularly interesting", and by the end this Jacob Jeffries dude has solidly wormed that melody into my ear and heart.
@@frandinhooooo1 "Listen" isn't exactly a compelling argument. You must be able to infer from context that we already listened and came to a different conclusion.
Shout out to my former camp counselor crushing the vocals! Glad to see Jacob making great music still and having a great time while doing it. Mr. Jeffries, I Hope you still play with Jimmy, Brian and others from back then (06 - 08) and are taking good care of yourself :)
I'm not sure what you set out to make but I'll be damned if this isn't one of the most pure and affecting performances I've ever heard. So much with so little. Just fantastic.

Stratton making his case as one of the all time great songwriters in the key of Db. ...also kudos for taking the Vulf theme and sneakily using it as the intro, verse and outro 🤪
The first time I heard this tune I was like, ok, this is cool. Now, 3 weeks later, I am of the opinion that this is one of the best songs ever written. One of the best. Ever. Something about the lyrics and composition just hits *different*. I mean I love Vulf and Jack is a genius, but this one is truly something special imo.
This is exactly what I love about Vulf; just a couple of incredibly talented dudes creating music and having a fucking blast doing it. That joy is always so damn contagious.
2:22 he sings the wrong lyrics, but he's having so much fun and it's such a good take that they upload it and I'm all about it! Incredible song and a perfect take
I don't know what it is about your voice and how you chose to do your sound for this song but it's seriously captivating. It has a familiar sound of some kind of older music I know I've heard before but can't quite remember. It's like what was lost was found here. I would buy a whole album of this style of voice.
I am pretty sure. I never felt this entertained while watching a music video. This joy I am feeling is not to describe. Boogieman is near by. thanks a lot mr. Stratton!
Yea... the second I heard it the first time I was pleasantly surprised. Didn't think I'd replay it 100 times over the next two weeks. But here we are. Such a sneaker of an ear worm. Well done Jack and Jacob.... Jack Jacob Jingleheimerschmidt.
Thing is, 'production' is far from absent with Vulf(peck). They avoid cutting, sampling, replacing and stuff, but the sound, composition, mixing/mastering, all that stuff is done quite meticulously. But I think it takes great skill to make it sound so 'casual' and unproduced. In a way it's like the greatest musicians, they make what the do look easy while it's far from easy.
I'm listening this on repeat for the next month straight. This has to be one of the best things I've heard recently.... I'm rather speachless at the moment. Please, consider touring Europe, we need you more than ever!
I saw Vulfpeck in Berlin, Germany a significant while ago. With the stupid low price they charged and the fact that merch was quickly out of stock I really wonder how the EU tour turned out for them financially. Tours are expensive af. But I bet if they did a tour now, went big and brought enough merchandise, they'd crush it. Though if I Deantown is not in the set, I'll set fire to something.
I wasn't immediately sold on the vocal affect, but the joy of this song is so infectious. I remember seeing Jacob open for an opener (if that's even a thing) at a show in Oakland several years ago, and it was the highlight of the night. Stoked to see him get more recognition.
Love pretty much all of Vulf songs but this is my new favorite along with wait for the moment! They have a talent for finding incredible singers to accompany them.
Some time ago, I've made the very hard decision I will no longer strive&work to one day be a musician who "plays just what I feel" (and also invests a lot of work/$€£ into their calling) bc I want to support a family one day and I don't believe I can make that happen on a salary I can't be sure of. So I'm generally feeling a little dejected and melancholic about the path through life I've chosen and then I see stuff like this and I'm like "Why the F*** did I give up on my dreams?". I identify with this on such a deep level and I don't know how I could even explain it to anyone, except show them the joy this inspires and say "I wanna make ppl happy, just like they do". Yea, the song is beautiful alright.
When I check out Jacob Jeffries’ other stuff and realize it’s absolutely nothing like this (but also very, very good) - it just makes me appreciate this performance even more. Full send.
yes yes yes yessss
You should invite them to the show on topic enjoying life!
Agreed!
spoken with your almost angry enthusiasm :D
Afternoon Mr. Wong
Love you Cory.
I feel like this song has already existed for 60 years
Hall and Oates got their start opening for Vulfmon
LITERALLY I FEEL LIKE THATS WHAT MOST GREAT MUSIC HAS IN COMMON BRO YESSSSSSS
Heck I swear I thought it was a cover
Exactly what I thought
I had to check whether it was a cover. Pretty awesome idea for a song, and the way he sings it just perfect
Not the voice I expected, but absolutely the voice I needed
I read this comment before he started singing and I was still surprised. Lol nice voice though. Reminds me of the parrot from Aladdin but like nice.
@@mcryan3890 hahaha YES. iago for the Win!
@@mcryan3890 RIP Gilbert
Well said. Cross between Bob Dylan and?

The three stages of listening to this song on a loop
1) woah this slaps
2) omg this REALLY slaps
3) tears
4) transcend this mortal prison to ascend to the funk universe
4) Learn the keys part and can’t stop playing it
My stages were a various degree of smiles and whooping and raving like I'm at Baptist church
@@GaaMacgfx 5) Discuss celestial bass lines with the gods of funk
6) Write a song that's worth it about how much you love these guys

Thank goodness someone said it

They were what drummers used before Hi-Hats were invented, and was called a Low-Boy. :)

1:38 perhaps the greatest fill of all time
Seriously. I've been practicing it for hours and I can't master the beauty and power this fill is played with.

Perhaps??
You'll never remember the best drum solo you've ever heard but you'll never forget the worst
@@joshplaysdrums2143 there’s just so much going on there’s no way anyone but jack could replicate it
Jack often disappears into the band due to the structure of Vulfpeck. This song is a friendly reminder that the man is ridiculously talented.
jack "dancing in front" stratton?
And let's not forget that he composed 80% of the songs. The man is omnipotent
But he used the transpose button….
Just kiddin’ haha
Amen

Plus a like 15% gyration after the landing?? Possibly the best move I've ever seen
Somehow I knew by the chord structure that Jack was planning on wrapping it up with the classic Vulfpeck jingle
You can hear it in the verses! The top voice of the key part is the melody of the jingle

Musicians having fun and not taking the production too seriously is my favorite part about Vulfpeck
The (lack of) production is one of my favourite things about vulf. Despite that it still sounds amazing on a nice speaker system
Thing is, 'production' is far from absent with Vulf(peck). They avoid cutting, sampling, replacing and stuff, but the sound, composition, mixing/mastering, all that stuff is done quite meticulously. But I think it takes great skill to make it sound so 'casual' and unproduced. In a way it's like the greatest musicians, they make what the do look easy while it's far from easy.
i can't stop listening to this
Cool story lyrics. Strong melody and chorus. Love it. ❤
Vulf never dissapoints. Still writing bangers consistently.
Vulfmon does it again! 1,000 points of light!
I'm listening this on repeat for the next month straight. This has to be one of the best things I've heard recently.... I'm rather speachless at the moment.
