“Livin on a feelin’, I got a feelin’ that it’s gonna be alright…” The last four years have been the most challenging of my life., but these lyrics help get me through. Thank you, Martin 🙏❤️
Do you only listen to mainstream radio or something? Lmao, plenty of instrument based bands out there still killing it, nothing but thieves, the 1975, idles, foals, royal blood, wolf alice
@@JoeyKane I know of foals, and the 1975. The Night Game (in my opinion) crushes them. They really stand out. It's not just playing instruments, but knowing HOW to play said instruments. At least for me. We all have our own preferences!
@@MagnumoftheMountains Wait, now i'm confused. You're original comment sounded as though you were sarcastically mocking the lack instrument based music in mainstream culture, and that these qualities (pretentiously) equate to real music, but then your response suggests you're more concerned about the quality of the players skill-level? Not sure youre being consistent with what you're trying to say here lmao
Massive fan here since last year. The studio version to this song is great, but this one... mindblowing. Really hope the album version approaches to this.
He was 18 and wasted Bedroom in the basement Parents house Tucson, Arizona What do you expect from a high school diploma Working hours in the shoe store Selling dimes out the back door Then he puts on his prom crown Says to his momma "I'm the king of this town" Won't you take me out I hear the midnight streets are calling You can hold me down But like a bird I'm just free falling Here's to these American nights We're having the time of our lives Living, dreaming, feeling, never sleeping Til we see the morning light On these American nights Neighborhood kid, just back from the desert Tattoo and a discharge letter VA in the St. John's 6 times a week, he still sleeps with his boots on She skipped track up to Brooklyn With a dream and some dark skin Graveyard at the Rhino "This is the place where the stars shine, you know" Won't you take me out I hear the midnight streets are calling You can hold me down But like a bird I'm just free falling Here's to these American nights We're having the time of our lives Living, dreaming, feeling, never sleeping Til we see the morning light On these American nights Hey Hey Hey These American nights Hey These American nights Hey The sky's black in November Nothing good lasts forever 12 gauge heart in a machine gun town Whole life running, you can't stop now Here's to these American nights We're having the time of our lives Living on a feeling, I got a feeling That it's gonna be alright On these American nights These American nights These American nights These American nights These American nights On these American nights
Kids are 11 and 12 years old listening to 80's, 70's, and 60's music. There's no reason "older" people can't listen to music of nowadays. There's no age limit or expiration date on music :D
The lead and rhythm guitar and drums are all better in the live version. Had to rip this off youtube cuz the studio version wasn't cutting it. This is quite good though. I agree that this sounds similar to Springsteen, with a shiny, sparkling sound.
@@AndroidSunrise I wouldn't say trash but a different era they were massive at the time due that Emo rock was big in like 2006/2009 its definitely a "At the time" kinda band but this is definitely on whole new level creatively and I'm loving it :)
Waiting to see you soon in Spain, your music is the finest now, every day i hear you, this album is going to be a time bomb, congratulations!!! in such a hostile world there are still things that make one shudder.
Took me way too long to figure out that those stabs in the beginning all fall on the 2-AND of each 4/4 measure.. in case anyone was wondering like me. Really creative way to start out the song
Your voice is kinda different from the Martin Johnson I used to listen in Boys Like Girls, but still, I will always love your voice and you Martin Johnson! ❤😁
Javier Torres exactly. I think that’s because they didn’t use the live drums, especially on the 2nd half of the verses. That hit is one of my favorite parts of the song.
It's a HUGE problem. The live versions of this and The Outfield blow the studio versions away. I fear for the album that people don't get to see just how great this band is.
The Night Game and The Killers are the two bands I like to listen to over and over again for that modern 80s vibe
“Livin on a feelin’, I got a feelin’ that it’s gonna be alright…”
The last four years have been the most challenging of my life., but these lyrics help get me through. Thank you, Martin 🙏❤️
If this group doesn’t win a grammy, then there is no justice in the music business
John Tatum There hasn’t been any Justice in the music industry.
I believe they got dropped from the label
@@HiMyNameIsJonathan Martin Johnson has his own label „real johnson records“ ;)
@@fabianleh6152 correct but this released was on Columbia.
The lack of airplay for these guys is criminal. We NEED more music like this!
Martin always was a superb live performer...some things never change.
Those guitar tones are so sparkly, its beautiful
Actual music in 2018? Guys playing instruments? Creative lyrics? Blessed!
i really miss Guys playing instruments
Amen 💙

When the live version surpasses the studio version (which was already mindblowing to begin with). This album can't come soon enough!
Garrett Scroggs true AF 😉
That’s the beauty of live music! Can’t wait to see these guys in Texas 👌🇺🇸
I hear all sorts of warm but clear 80's overtones making a comeback with this! Awesome!
Massive fan here since last year. The studio version to this song is great, but this one... mindblowing. Really hope the album version approaches to this.
Expecting a live version of the album. You guys unleash your sound when you're out of the studio.
The Night Game album is the best album I've heard in YEARS!!!! Just amazing.
So much music in there, great to see something like this, so fresh, with a vibe so real.
This is overwhelmingly good music. Like seriously heart racing stuff.
This belongs in an 80’s coming of age film.
Digging this version so much more than the studio/album version :(
This sounds fresh but old school at the same time. Love it. Also, that guitar sound at 1:50 and 1:55 is so good
I want this released as its own independent version of this song! SO GOOD!
This is the greatest pop bop since 1776.
You mean since The 1975 ? :D
Nope I said it correctly. Pop bop, not pop band.
He was 18 and wasted
Bedroom in the basement
Parents house Tucson, Arizona
What do you expect from a high school diploma
Working hours in the shoe store
Selling dimes out the back door
Then he puts on his prom crown
Says to his momma "I'm the king of this town"
Won't you take me out
I hear the midnight streets are calling
You can hold me down
But like a bird I'm just free falling
Here's to these American nights
We're having the time of our lives
Living, dreaming, feeling, never sleeping
Til we see the morning light
On these American nights
Neighborhood kid, just back from the desert
Tattoo and a discharge letter
VA in the St. John's
6 times a week, he still sleeps with his boots on
She skipped track up to Brooklyn
With a dream and some dark skin
Graveyard at the Rhino
"This is the place where the stars shine, you know"
Won't you take me out
I hear the midnight streets are calling
You can hold me down
But like a bird I'm just free falling
Here's to these American nights
We're having the time of our lives
Living, dreaming, feeling, never sleeping
Til we see the morning light
On these American nights
Hey
Hey
Hey
These American nights
Hey
These American nights
Hey
The sky's black in November
Nothing good lasts forever
12 gauge heart in a machine gun town
Whole life running, you can't stop now
Here's to these American nights
We're having the time of our lives
Living on a feeling, I got a feeling
That it's gonna be alright
On these American nights
These American nights
These American nights
These American nights
These American nights
On these American nights
I'm too old to like this music. But I love this music. The Outfield, Kids in Love, and this song. Outstanding.
David Cochran music knows no generation brother. It's good that you enjoy this

This has the same message as The Great Escape, but the adult version.
This live version of this song is so amazing. Martin Johnson has a very talented voice. This song has a 80's vibe to it.
Perfectly produced, mixed and mastered. Great song with an awesome sound👌👌👌👌
Martin still has one of the most amazing voices I've ever heard. ❤❤❤ will forever be martin Johnson's fan 🙋
Matin's voice quality is just amazing.
Why doesn’t this have more views ??
I dunno i cried when I listened to this song .. maybe cause I remembered 2006 when i was 15 year old biggest fan of BOYS LIKE GIRLS 😢😢😢❤️❤️
This came out two years ago and I'm just now finding it? Some of the best stuff I've heard in a LONG time. Love these guys..
Love both versions, but this takes the cake. Cant wait for the full album!
I feel like this is what Bleachers want to be. Martin is one of the best songwriters of his generation 🤘🏻
Needs to be on Spotify and all dem streams! Too good!
In prep for BLG making a comeback I came here to see how The Night Game sounded live. Blown away!!
This should have been on the album. Really makes the song stand out especially with the long intro.
Reminds me of the sound of the 80s - in every positive way I could think of. Music that lets me dream.
The lead and rhythm guitar and drums are all better in the live version. Had to rip this off youtube cuz the studio version wasn't cutting it. This is quite good though. I agree that this sounds similar to Springsteen, with a shiny, sparkling sound.
i love the way he change is style and yet still the old martin i know
Fuck.... This is how the record should sound like! Amaaaaaaazing!
i want full live album. very good live.
Me too...can‘t wait for it. Btw nice Profile Pic love AVA.
thank you man.
@@MrGodSky and wheres it now? cant find the live session so far
Absolute magic.
Unbelievably good singer, the voice reminds me a bit of Adam Lambert on the higher notes but totally unique in his way
This is how music should be - this is real art. Thanks for uploading!
Finally checking out yours music, Wow, Martin, you have a truly lovely sounding voice.. this is enchanting!
What a mind blowing band the coolest song enjoyed after a long long times.80s touch just love it.
Great performance, Great Song! I'm a fan now!
Great Album, Great Song.
Perfect music
I. LOVE. THIS. VERSION.
Best version of this track hands down.
This is absolutely fantastic
I came here because Boys Like Girls was my fave. I left hearing a different voice from Martin than I'm used to. But wow. Very matured!
Kelsey Roper hero heroin to this for me
Ooh bener ya ini Boys Like Girls
boys like girls is a trash band esp comparatively.
@@AndroidSunrise I wouldn't say trash but a different era they were massive at the time due that Emo rock was big in like 2006/2009 its definitely a
"At the time" kinda band but this is definitely on whole new level creatively and I'm loving it :)
Oh god i love also this song! Can‘t stop listening! Album already pre-ordered!
WHAT A BLAAAAASSSST!
Greetings from Austria!
wow TBH its my first time today hearing this.. didnt been informed for two years about this... ohh my
So stoked for the album! I'm glad I found em before they blow up, you know they are going to
Geiles Konzert, gestern von Euch im Artheater Köln, auch nur zu viert, prima live Bühnenpräsenz!!! Weiter so Jungs!
The guitar is so Marillion, love it.
yep. these guys are good. from boys like girls to this! this for sure!
Piano line is Bruce Hornsby-esque. I'm likin it.
Come on make this available on spotify please. This is too great to ignored.
KIDS IN LOVE NEEDS TO BE ON THE ALBUM
You guys have such a radiant vibe going on. Love the spirit.
Walking in Memphis by Marc Cohn Vibes!! Love this! I am a follower now!
Waiting to see you soon in Spain, your music is the finest now, every day i hear you, this album is going to be a time bomb, congratulations!!! in such a hostile world there are still things that make one shudder.
Love that intro, just so damn soothing and nostalgic
Took me way too long to figure out that those stabs in the beginning all fall on the 2-AND of each 4/4 measure.. in case anyone was wondering like me. Really creative way to start out the song
I'm in love, duuuuudeee
Amazing live performance
These guys got that new Springsteen/Petty vibe
Release their album already!!!! 😀
It sounds just as good live!❤ Got to see them open up for John Mayer last summer. Love this song!!
Martin Johnson is as hot as he was 10 years ago!
Such great sound! Love Martin's melodies and songs
Sounds like something Bryan Adams, Phil Collins, or Sting would have done :0
Fuck this sounds so fresh. I believe this is going to be the sound of the 2020s.
Your voice is kinda different from the Martin Johnson I used to listen in Boys Like Girls, but still, I will always love your voice and you Martin Johnson! ❤😁
I can't believe how much better the live version is. It's so rare
I need them to play their full album from UA-cam Space LA. And to then release it as a legit live album.
beautiful much love
Pure talent.
This should have been the album version. the drums make it a completely differnt song.
The best i have ever heard ...🤟🏼
Another great song. Bring on the album!
Great band but only one problem. I just wish the studio version was as good as this live version. The studio version lacks the energy of this one.
Javier Torres exactly. I think that’s because they didn’t use the live drums, especially on the 2nd half of the verses. That hit is one of my favorite parts of the song.
Yes. The studio version doesn't have live drums. I just wish they could remake it for the album.
It's a HUGE problem. The live versions of this and The Outfield blow the studio versions away. I fear for the album that people don't get to see just how great this band is.
❤️❤️❤️
Love the spaz drummer!
the bast band.
Those Roland Jazz Chorus amps...delicious.
Way underrated!
Goosebumps.
Explain to me why this band is not more popular.
^^^
Serious question though; is this the guy from Boys Like Girls?
Yes, it’s Martin Johnson
Is this the same band?
New band
They use vintage synthesizers!
Came here after listning to Chase Rice version. Both are great.
as long as martin keeps performing, my youth stays alive
Underrated. This is a 4th of July song that Macy's should use.
super cool......lg aus Berlin
Very Good 🎧
Oh martin really changed his genre. still cool
So good!!
amazing
