gosh you guys are so funky freaky you wake up our hearts playing LIvin in the City, so unique you define the beat, rapping our stories and sharing our pain, i am lucky to find you, JBT reigns! you let it flow like no other!
From time to time I come here to remember where I started. It's been a while now. Though I listen for the most part to completely different things and genres nowadays, this is and will remain rocky and groovy and amazing foreverrr
Bells are ringing on your alarm clock It's six in the morning, man the race don't stop It's just shit, shower, shave just make it to the station Waiting for the train... goddamn train late again Hit the streets and they are seething Ducking, weaving, begging, stealing Got you kneeling and you're feeling That you wanted more That's how it goes livin' in the city Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty They don't look back, they don't take no pity Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty That's how it goes livin' in the city Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty They don't look back, they don't take no pity Well I get to the office and delete my spam Delete me, delete my plans Working everyday for the goddamn man Sometimes I wonder just who I am Well I'm gonna go postal Gonna have a death toll Be the head hunter Then I'm gonna move coastal Everything's gonna be just fine Working everyday on my gold mine That's how it goes livin' in the city Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty They don't look back, they don't take no pity Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty That's how it goes livin' in the city Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty They don't look back, they don't take no pity That's how it goes livin' in the city Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty They don't look back, they don't take no pity Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty That's how it goes livin' in the city Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty They don't look back, they don't take no pity Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty

You make me feel good about your song's John Butler trio I'm happy for you guys to sing great job on your song's honey I love you too much babe I respect you for being a good Guy every day I listen to your song's
This. This is how you record awesome music. Just a bunch of great musicians keeping their own time, no messing around with headphones and click tracks, put some good mics in the right spots and off they go.
Pepijn Krijnsen For this particular situation and this type of music, I will agree. Any other studio recording situation and some live situations, I would demand that at the very least the drummer had a click. Especially when branching into other genres. This group is the exception being capable of honing in on each other and playing off each other’s strengths, but they are extremely skilled at their craft and have taken the time a dedication to perfect their performances.
omg ur soooooo sick seen u live n gr and u blew my mind ur the reason y i keep on living. i brought 3 really lucky people and they thank me every time i see them
Its pretty cool how they all know several instruments. The bass guy can play the bass guitar and the double bass, and he can also play the piano. The drummer can play multiple instruments. Its pretty cool really.
Finally realised where that riff is from (bass part in this song). It's off of "Satisfy Seige" the interlude to"Ragged Mile" from April Uprising. Been driving me mad. That's pretty rad he's done that, turned an old interlude into a full song. Nice.
I like this acoustic version WAY WAY WAY better than the album version of this song!!!!! Is there some way to listen to this version without going on UA-cam (iTunes, Spotify)? Because if there is I haven't found it! :(
I already have this song. You could download the addon from firefox called "download helper" and then "format factory" or any other to get the sound track.
anybody know what happened at 1:20 that made his mic cut out? i dont think its clipping in my speakers or even cutting the whole signal out... it just sounds weird! like a censor out or glitch or something. lol.
Someone know tell me which guitar is playing john butler in that video? Qualcuno sa dirmi che chitarra sta suonando john butler nel video? Thanks for your music John!

Bells are ringing on your alarm clock
It's six in the morning,
man the race don't stop
It's just shit, shower,
shave just make it to the station
Waiting for the train...
goddamn train late again
Hit the streets and they are seething
Ducking, weaving, begging, stealing
Got you kneeling and you're feeling
That you wanted more
That's how it goes livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty
That's how it goes livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
Well I get to the office and delete my spam
Delete me, delete my plans
Working everyday for the goddamn man
Sometimes I wonder just who I am
Well I'm gonna go postal
Gonna have a death toll
Be the head hunter
Then I'm gonna move coastal
Everything's gonna be just fine
Working everyday on my gold mine
That's how it goes livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty
That's how it goes livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
That's how it goes livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty
That's how it goes livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty
Another awesome song from my all time favorite band. Counting down to the new album release on February 4th!
Love you guys!!
Hit the streets and they are seething, ducking weaving, begging steeling. These lyrics come to life. The whole song comes to life

I already have this song. You could download the addon from firefox called "download helper" and then "format factory" or any other to get the sound track.
You could probably just download it as an mp3- search UA-cam to mp3 on google
