Thanks to all the fans of my dad who loved and yet supports his music! May God continue to keep and bless you all during this pandemic.
This has always been for me the definitive soul ballad, and the very best rendition.
Wishing you and yours all the best.
His voice, his performance, his composure was a blessing. His voice and conviction never fails to move me.
@@landroverwriterusa you are so kind for those words of encouragement! You can also listen to his grandson “Dozzy Daniel” Guard up is the name of the project. Be safe and happy holidays to you and your family!
This is one of the great songs ever.
Thank you, your father, and God bless the family.
I love this song and sing it too but there's no one who can do it after you hear James Carr doing it.
"When they come out, does it hurt?"
"Every time."
Nice reference
R.i.p Wolverine
Funny thing is that you for sure came from the wolverine trailer where someone else had this exact same comment.
@@excelsian512 funny how only you complain about it instead of simply enjoying the reference and good music.
@@excelsian512 Yea dude, just shut up and dont be a hater
Wolverine's melancholy captured perfectly in this song. Can't wait!
Came here for it never new this song
Came from wolverine trailer, such an amazing song.. ! HI all and have a nice day!
I thought I’d be the only one to comment on that but wow! Even though I do like the Wolverine as a character, I watched that teaser and heard this song and immediately knew they hit the jackpot! Absolute perfect choice and excellent song! Love discovering music and artists this way. Thank you Mr. Carr. I will listen to more of your work 👍🏾
@@jean-gerardbeauport6915 I saw your comment too! Guess that goes to show how precise this song in invoking similar feelings in everyone that watched the Wolverine trailer.
Im another here cause of the wolverine trailer!
Goes perfectly with Wolverine, this mature overtone of melancholy...
I'm hoping he goes "Feelin' lucky bub?"
Wolverine life was a comedy?
@@Dogmaguy74 Nope that means sad
@@ethanritter9090 You dingus... I know what it means i was asking if Wolverine has a shitty life filled with a series of unfortunate events.
@@Dogmaguy74 eh sibling rivalry when he’s over 100 years old seems kinda comedic
This is my grandfather! Man he was a hell of a singer!
+SKWOD_Zel he is a hell of a singer
What a voice
+SKWOD_Zel your grandpa put out one of my favorite soul records!
+SKWOD_Zel You should be so proud. He is a huge talent.
I always felt that James was one of the soul great who was criminally underrated. Your gandpa's voice could move a dead man.
You know why you’re here...you know DAMN well why you’re here Bub.
lol you caught me
Thank you Sony for helping me find this beautiful song.
Who is here because you have good taste in music?
Me.

I knew that the WOLVERINE trailer would raise the views on this song. Great song 🎶. Soon to be great video game.

Beefy Tune of the Day
Take beef years to do this cover 😂
The son of a Mississippi preacher who grew up singing in church. He was bipolar and died of lung cancer at age 59. How could his life be so rough and yet he bring us such beauty and soulful feelings.
This is exactly how
"A candle that burns twice as bright, burns half as long"
GREGG ALLMAN DID AN AMAZING COVER OF THIS SONG...
Bascombloge, isn't that most always the case? Brilliance/genuis and mental illness are just a line you can cross--many creative and highly intelligent people suffer or have tortured personal lives, Van Gogh, Einstein, and here, James carr
@@jschuler53 Very true Lesser Gracie,very true!
I’ve been alive 44 years ,and never heard this beautiful song until today.
M.E ~ I’ve been on the planet for 72 years and just heard this song and this artist for the first time. Goes to show , you don’t know how you will affect this earth long after you’re gone. Make it good.
I have been alive longer than that and never heard James Carr until today. Love his voice.
Just heard it today also, Beautiful and Touching
Same here. But im 60. Tales from the Loop.
My neighbor never heard it before either, and his mom still lives in Hattiesburg! He comes over once a week or so. He says he's checking to see if i need anything, but i think I'm helping him too.
I'm worried because he is worried. So we listened to this and then we listened to some Mavis Staples because i heard that she is still alive and canceled her tour for this summer.
Don't mind me, just drinking some whisky right after I destroyed a bar with my claws. bub...
Been listening to this for years and years it never gets old because everyday it's a true thing for someone, I wish we could bring back the real soul music like this
INSOMNIAC WOLVERINE TEASER THANKYOU FOR LETTING ME KNOW OF THIS MASTERPIECE!
Fair Warning: there's gonna be ALOT of Wolverine Comments.
Not complaining.
The Trailer is awesome.
Sony did an S Tier Event.
Sony was like this is the day it happen this is the day the xbox died
yes no politics, no woke b.s, just badass games. Unlike the disaster that was e3 this year
@@Pingaheimer
Don't start bru
@@Astartes-6969 ?
@@Astartes-6969 He's right there was nothing interesting in e3 besides forza and starfield everything else was lame af
This fits Wolverine so well
James' life was blighted by soul-destroying depression and illiteracy, yet he made some of the greatest soul music of the period. This track is a stone-cold classic.
He deserved better.
The man that wrote this song was just an old country white guy from NW Alabama and you could never guess how he wrote such great music.
Thanks to the Wolverine teaser I'm here. My grandpa actually used to listen to this song and I forgot about it until I heard it. ❤
It is amazing how a movie or a game can introduce you to other media. Young or old. Because of the Wolverine teaser im obsessed with this song. Such a great vibe
The same bro.
Same
It’s a classic for my grandma (black) remembering how she had hide to meet her white husband
@@868AIB dude i work in retail and had this playing, this old white lady stopped and started crying. She told me a story just like this. Except she wasnt able to marry the dude cause her parents moved her. Shit was so horrible back then
I'm here because of Tales from the Loop.
Wolverine trailer makers knocked it out the park with this song choice. It’s clear that the movie Logan has paved the way for more mature, melancholic, old school interpretations of the character.
Absolutely
Everyone in a few more hours:
"I Came after the trailer of the Wolverine Game"
You're not wrong, but this is a banger!
@@birchbongos It sure is
I'm all for it. People hearing this great tune.
Same here bro
I mean.. yes. Song is amazing!
I'm thankful whenever mainstream media brings attention to relatively hidden gems, or things I wouldn't come across on my own. It's hard to find the good stuff when there's just so much stuff out there.
Heard this song on Amazon Prime - Tales From The Loop season 1 episode 3. Fantastic.
Just got to that scene!
jbf16falcon me too jus had to hear it again! XO
I just heard it there too. I knew other versions I didn't know the original though. man what a voice!
Me too! I looked it up because I wasn't sure if it was real. I am so glad it is! I love it.
great song, great series, great episode!
I’ve been alive 58 years ,and never heard this beautiful song until today. Pure bliss
If insomniac knocks the wolverine game outta the park, I vouch that we put them as the head of the entire marvel franchise game division!
Waiting for wolverine to say "Feelin' lucky Bub?" or something as a catchline looking at the guy with the knife
They should've made Marvel's Avengers instead of Square Enix.
It's not a terrible idea for the most part though I feel some franchises are suited for other developers. Deadpool=Platinum Games, Punisher=Naughty Dog, or Hangar studios if you wanna go cheap. Ect ect
@@jordanhoward9678 insomniac can make them better tho.
Seems like a lot of work for such a small development company, i kind of got worried seeing theyre making wolverine whilst making spiderman 2, hopefully they didnt get bought by a huge company and are given due dates if so we’re damned
The best version of this song ever recorded. A true soul man, the world is a bit less joyful without this gifted singer.
What a voice. RIP James Carr🎶🌹
An excellent song for the Wolverine. And an excellent cigar song. 🔥
Lyrics:
At the dark end of the street
That's where we always meet
Hiding in shadows where we don't belong
Living in darkness to hide our wrong
You and me
At the dark end
Of the street
You and me
I know time is gonna take it's toll
We have to pay for the love that we stole
It's a sin and we know it's wrong
Oh, but our love keeps coming on strong
Steal away
To the dark end
Of the street
They're gonna to find us
They're gonna to find us
They're gonna to find us lord, someday
You and me
At the dark end
Of the street
You and me
And when the daylight hours roll round
And by chance we're both downtown
If we should meet just walk on by
Oh, darling, please don't cry
Tonight, we'll meet
At the dark end
Of the street
Thanks
nice work
This song sounds familiar. I just can't quite put my Claw on it
That made me snicker. I mean "SNIKTer".
There's just something about it Bub
Because suffering is universal, and so is love and beauty. To know one, implies intimate knowledge of the other.
Ansioso por Marvel's Wolverine
Yeah
Somos dois amigão.
É nois!

One of the best soul singers that has ever graced this earth. R.I.P James Carr
Too many people are unfamiliar with him, and that's a shame.
@VintageBeef sent me here and i really enjoyed this song. So much feeling and soul in the older music. Not like today's music
Depends what you're listening to. There's plenty of rhythm and blues, soul, and jazz out there being made today by artists who are forced into obscurity because their genres "don't sell", or it "isn't what the public wants to hear", but that's literally what producers said about James Brown, Ella Fitzgerald, as well as countless other great and talented musicians who are now considered classics, who we couldn't imagine the world without. Unfortunately, it was often, and probably still is the case that the most soulful and underrated artists were black, and severely discriminated against (given bum deals, getting ripped off by their record companies). Sadly, if you turn on the radio today you hear the same 8 songs on repeat, so I agree that the radio is no place to hear soulful tunes (some stations have jazz/soul/blues programs, and are an exception to this).
Listen to Anastacia. She has some amazing soul tracks.
James Carr - what a voice, great song.
Damn right.
My grandfather Quinton Claunch produced this track. I remember him picking up James Carr to head to the studio quite often. RIP both of them!
Thanks you wolverine bring me here to this song
Heard this at the end.of.the last episode of Hijack on Apple TV + yesterdsy brilliant vocal.
I AM HERE BECAUSE OF JAMES CARR AND NOTHING ELSE!!!!!!!!!!!!- HE WAS A GREAT SINGER!!!!!! I DIDN'T NEED A MOVIE TO DISCOVER HIM.
This has got to be one of the best soul ballads I've ever heard.
My favourite soul singer of all time. What a voice. R.I.P James
Just went and visited this mans grave for the first time today. I live about 20 mins away from it in memphis tn. He was one of the most underrated and underappreciated soul singers there ever was. He is truly missed. Rip Mr Carr
Wow, yes , one of the greats.
One of the best voices ever, and one of the best songs ever!
This is the best southern soul song ever. James Carr had a hell of a voice!
This is soul at its best.
Vintage Beef's Beefy Tune crew is here.
Tales from the Loop (Amazon Prime) episode 3 brought me here. Awesome tune!
I'm here after the "Marvel's Wolverine" - Teaser. I'm glad for this. Beautiful Song! 💓💎😏
70 here and I've never heard it either. Love it.
Heard this while watching the t.v. show Counterpart and fell in love with it. Had to come and find it. They just don't make music like this anymore....
Me toooo !!! Omg in love with it!
That’s what exactly happened to me last night!
I found it in tv show tales from the loop
Absolutely👍
Same here. Great show. Great song
Since Wolverine’s new game is going to be emotional and suspenseful, this song fits perfectly
I thanks. My mama and papa always. Playing. These gems. Growing. Up. They always. Had this songs always. Playing. Feb 4!!2023 Friday
Valeu Wolverine por me mostrar isso! Fantástico.
Ate q fim um brasileiro aqui pensei q era só eu
Que música maravilhosa amigos, obrigado Wolverine!
@@Israel_RC kakak Tmj!
@@mateusalves1775 né?
Falou,guri.
Emotional...... a beautiful woman I was dating for over 5years sent this song to me the night of our break up, what a voice, what a great song, so relevant to our relationship!
Grate song love it by James Carr butefule song. Thank you.roy hurst❤❤
James Carr was and is still a legend of song and music.. great singer and entertainer
One of the best songs ever written...
I just heard this song play in the last Episode of Hijack. So power, sad n haunting.
For me, this is the definition of songwriting perfection. The incredible voice and instrumentals just make it sublime.
The Commitments brought me here but Mr. Carr brought me home. Incredible. It's a shame that this artist and song don't get more airplay and recognition.
My mom used to play this song never knew who the artist was awe my mom gone now but I remember her playing it when I was a little girl
@@william0112 That's so sweet!
ana and fuckin and.......
ty insomniac games for bringing this amazing song into my life! 💞💖💞
I learned of this song when it was played on the Hijack series finale. Beautiful soulful song done by a man with a beautiful voice.
Get video of The Committments. Great movie and a fabulous singer that just kills this song. I will play it again and again!
Just came across this awusum music in Hijack season 1.....wot a masterpiece❤🎉
Last night was the First time I heard this song and this singer. Tears rolling down, I was so captivated by this voice and the lyric !
when james carr says "they're gonna find us" there's so many layers its profound
Just think an old white country boy wrote this great piece of music.
Soulfully amazing... Deep . Profound Deep
I've never heard this song until today and had to buy the audio CD. James had a beautiful voice!
Amazing song! Need to dig deeper
Logan always brings up amazing themes.
When I was a kid, we argued that sampling old songs for rap music gave new interest in those songs. That argument remains as I see kids here referencing the Wolvie game trailer. It's a beautiful thing.
Let’s see how many people are listening to this in 2021 💙
Thank you Counterpart.
My mama would love this. ♥
Thanks, Sam Nelson. I owe you one.
Thnx Wolverine
The bomb series on Apple TV called “Hi Jack“ with Idris Elba brought me here!! It was sooooo good and this was the dope song that series deserved. Had me at the edge of my seat the entire time!! I loved it loved it loved it ! Watched it ALL in 1 day! That’s how genuis this film is ! Don’t walk run and go watch it! Especially with lovers, friends and family ! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Love this song. Grew up with it. Keep playing it over and over. Soul music is the foundation of our music today. What wonderful, soul searching, beautiful music...
Yeah, me too.
Love, love, love this James Carr masterpiece. RIP CL, thank you for being part of my life when I needed you the most. RIP James Carr.

I'm 55 and just heard it playing after hijack was going off and had to hear more
Thank you, Beefytunes for this amazing song.
Heard this on 'Counterpoint' and it was soooo awesome! James Carr is a gifted singer.
🔥 PlayStation Wolverine brought me here! 🚨
WBAI F.M. New York sent me. Glad I listened. A classic, underrated singer.
The new Wolverine game brought me here. I'm very hyped for it but I'm so happy it showed me this song! I love this song it hits deep for me.
W O L V E R I N E :)
Just heard this for the first time on The tv show “counterpart “
Brilliant, I am now a fan of James Carr.
Wolverine teaser brought me here and I’m glad 😌
Wolverine got me here 🔥🔥💯

doesn't get much better than this!
This song is living rent free in my mind.
I completely forgot I bought this album on vinyl until tonight and this song brought me back to the first time I heard it.....such a fucking gem ❤❤❤
Wow! What a fantastic singer!!!
This song always brings back memories of my uncle. He loved this song so much that he did his own cover of it. He was a huge fan of James Carr that in his childhood bedroom he had a poster of James up along with other band posters. Thank you so much James for making this beautiful song to bring back amazing memories. RIP James Carr and my amazing uncle Joe❤
I can tell you why he loved this song, he lived it! I did to....
Can you upload/share your uncles cover? Would really like to hear it.
Dear lord this singer has the most beautiful voice 💜 please find and add more of him x
I see his adult child & g/child are here. I pray you are fabulous singers too 🙏 Take a lot to live up to James, you must be so proud.
My g/children are sadly lacking in the music department, you only have to look at the charts to know what I mean. Their generation has to 'listen' with their eyes, unfortunately.
this is my great grandfather! man he was a good singer
My dad was always singing this song to me, when I was going to sleep... Now I live on my own, oh, the time is flying sooo fast.
