revisiting this after 10 years and im in love, again.
Hands down my absolute favorite performance of this beautiful song. I can't imagine an alternative version that could surpass it. Folk rock on, Johnny!
classic, classic voice. keeps me from missing the old folk legends from the 60s-70s.
it's amazing how there is a real man with a voice like that writes songs like that...
his whole image is like honey for my heart. makes me believe in the good, and makes the happy dreams realistic... Thank you.
First time hearing this, and I can't agree more!
He looks so handsome here😍 still he is...wish i knew about him before, his voice is just so good, you don't want him to stop singing💗
and the worst and best of all we knew, stayed out to rust in the morning dew. i need to be serenaded by this guy.
Never gets old!...so beautiful so timeless!!!...special man....beautiful inside & out!...to me this is real music, love this lad with my heart & soul, Johnny u are a real talent & such a gem!!❤️🙏❤️
Flynn needs to put out a stripped down live album. We'd all buy it! This song sounds wonderful...
The recent Roundhouse show was recorded and will be released as an album
Yeah, he's at his best with less clutter. Not that clutter is always bad.
Seven years later, and I am thinking the same thing, come on Johnny, a solo acoustic album please.
He already has. It’s Live in Washington
I just can't get enough of this dude. What a wicked talent , this guy!
He makes me feel the way he feels when he’s singing. ❤️
brought here by the Detectorist theme and loving the music from this guy. wow
you should watch lovesick on netflix. he starts in it and it's a GREAT series.
So so so so so good
Me too man 👍
get the album been listening its amazing
I could stay listening to him all day.
Absolutely one of my favorite songs! Please keep making music!
Johnny Flynn is up there with another of my musical heroes, one Roy Harper, both great songsmiths.
Lovely lovely lovely
i'm curious as to why he''s still playing in reasonsabl small venues with audiences such as this, who, quite frankly, don't seem that bothered. Why is he not selling out arenas and playing in huge venues where the crowd know every word of every song? I just think he should be considerably more famous than he is, given his talent
What a talent, beautiful boy. Look now, January 2021, how finally he is all 'in the news'. Stay true Johnny. X X
'THEY' Dont want young people to be inspired. THEY being the system. Have you listened to mainstream music lately. :)
He's playing a young Anthony Hopkins now, in a heroic biopic, of a legendary man. Among legendary men....and woman. This comment aged perfectly.
wow they could all look alot happier to be there hahaha they all look bored! that was flipping amazinggg
Today the best lyricist died, this fella has skills. God bless Leonard.
Jim Laver jesus fuck I thought you were going to say Johnny died
Johnny ,dreamy deep blue eyes ,dreamy soft full lips,strong folksy voice,what,s not to love, marry me Johnny please
He's married sadly
I don't understand how not to love this so damn much. Gosh, I am so blessed to hear music such as this. THANK YOU JOHNNY!
i love this song so much (:

Aussi beau qu un poème de Rimbaud de la pure poésie

Lyrics
I met Jane in September's throw
January's grass, we let each other go
I met Helen on March's back
She took my coat and she stole my hat
I met you when the weather got fine
You said 'I've got yours if you've got mine
And the worst and best of all we knew
Stayed out to rust in the morning dew
Didn't take long to sing our love
Was a harvest feast, was a hand to glove
When winter came you couldn't stand to sit
You just the same never burnt but lit
With a world at war and my thoughts on you
I didn't care to fall, there wasn't much to do
And the worst and best of all we knew
Stayed out to rust in the morning dew
Churlish May when the year was fair
Gone full circle when things went square
Ate my meal an un-noble beast
Left me to pay not a movable feast
Look I got nothing, dunno where I am
Got a fistful of questions, not an answer to hand
And the worst and best of all we knew
Stayed out to rust in the morning dew
Morning dew
With a blow me down the road, dead in the wood
Further from you now, then the roots from the leaves
Drunk on the wood, never seen any trees
My ore's out the water and the lake that I'm sailing
Is your dear father's daughter and it's cold and I'm ailing
Are you drowning me slowly, was the school meant to teach
Are you leaving so slowly, where's the shore, where's the beach?
And the worst and best of all we knew
Stayed out to rust in the morning dew
bravooooo
Just goes to show that there is great talent out there shutting the mouths of all those who say otherwise. Great initiative guys, thank you!
at 3:02 my jaw dropped. he is amazing.
(and fit!)
Brill!
So true good sir
Further from you now than the roots from the leaves.
Really nice man, thumbs up
very good :)
MUITO BOM MESMO
I actually get goosebumps when I listen to this, in a good way :)
F**king awesome....beautiful sound, really soothing for a Christmas night.... perfect, thanks for the solution ;-)
Listening to this pure song this Christmas Eve 2021. Always just keep coming back around to Johnny Flynn. Simple and affecting. Joy to the world. X
Here is a reminder for today!
Tune
@Loumeister21 He did a tour of Ireland, and i seen him in Cavan and Belfast, one night after another, he was amazing.
:)) cool!
Again..hat off to you J F. :)
+Loretto Reid his hat was stolen
by helen
almost forgot to listen to this today.... phew!
looking forward to seeing Johnny in Amsterdam Monday,
It was amazing, wasn't it ;D
was a great...night..full to the rafters:)
Reading this I thought: He's coming to The Netherland?! :O
Then I saw your comment was three years old...
One day I'll see him live :)
KungFooZombie 30 oktober😊
@MisterLoveFox Hmm you make a good point actually - hadn't considered that
The album version has a strange reggae like bass and drum line. This is so much better. I wish it were on Spotify.
Marbles I find him much better live and raw (that sounds like I want to eat him, I kinda do as well 😍😂)
i remember when this video had only 10 likes and 85 views
I just don't understand how every single person there isn't completely transfixed.
I only discovered him last year when I saw him in the movie, "Song One", purchased the soundtrack and started researching his music. I hope as he gets older and more seasoned he might write at least a few songs that transcend personal experience and speak more to universal themes...or maybe I'm just not intelligent enough to understand some of his lyrics. They have beautiful imagery either way.
moronextraordinnaire I think "The Wrote And The Writ" is a good example of when he sings and writes from personal experience and a universal theme. I just thought I'd recommend it on the off chance you haven't heard that one :) x
💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💖
@nwardezir777 and so is his guitar ! :P
Marry me? :)
😄
@draconius25 Or they're all big names in the British folk scene so they unsurprisingly met through that.
@draconius25 specially marcus
@harrywhoyou Apologies, if I wasn't clear enough.
What I mean is, how has he wired it up? I can't see the pickup, would he have taped a piezo to the inside or something?
I've got something similar to his amped tone at the moment, using a contact mic on my acoustic, and using a low level of overdrive on my amp.
Can someone please tell me where I can get those boots
@draconius25 Don't forget Charlie Fink
it's not enough that the kid was born good looking? he win's the voice lottery too? it's just not fair i tell you. he's probably really good at basketball too.
jaja I know!
You should realise that no one is good looking. Because even if you are considered 'attractive' according to beauty ideals, you've been used to it because you've been in your body all your lfie since birth. So it's not special to you yourself. And people reminding you look attractive according to beauty ideals, are just telling you they can't see you for the human you are.
Kind-hearted "ugly" people, and kind-hearted "beautiful" people suffer the same way: No one sees them for who they truly are, and we all keep that bullshit going by projecting our own sadness onto someone else's ugliness or beauty. Either with insults or compliments.
with the wuuurlds if you,n so so sqAURE.BUT THE wiiisrst bed, slowly sleeps towards the coadtal hants like us all ]
its a a-sheerab-so-aquatuc. so may as well go for it
@reFused1985 So all people that like dubstep don't like folk?
I must go away and rethink my whole opinion of music. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
Hey Johnny where’d you get those shoes 👞? 2:16
They are Dr Martens crazy horse boots
Anybody know what he's done to the guitar with all of the tape, and the lead coming out of nowhere?
This man is not of this world
He's also an actor...
Chelsea boots :)
Seconded.
When there’s music and songwriting like this in our day and age.... WHO THE FUCK LISTENS TO DRAKE???
@hellofromjoebot because thats not how he rolls and more intimate venues are nicer anyway :)
and a model
That awkward moment when you're the only one to dislike a youtube video. #foreveralone
Ok who the hell disliked this. Seriously?
I can listen to dubstep in short segments but theres nothing quite like folk and bluegrass
@TheGreatWolfFenrir hahah...did I make a coment on this one? :)
freakish may
