Damn they sound great live, a lot of bands dont live up to it live but they did really well. And that crowd was fucking insanely hyped.
Nyxato it's got to be a hell of a feeling to know you can influence a crowd to react to you like that. Amazing.
Nyxato couldn't have said it better
Sorta jealous of how well he can sing
Reading or Leeds is on my bucket list…best crowds
@@wapwothefetty2569 Definitely this. I've often been told my voice sounds like Jim Adkins, so I recently started recording a cover of Lucky Denver Mint. I've done about a million vocal takes and I can't get anything that sounds even remotely good. The jealousy is real 😆
the day this song dropped it was an instant classic. and its such a festival song. damn
love england they appreciate all types of music and enjoy it!!!
A friend of mine once mistaken these guys name for “Jimmy IS World..”
I think he was right...
I recently bought Jims signature fender telecaster and started listening to these guys.
Any other songs like this?
00:41 Theres Waldo!
0:45
kurt
is that you?
@ducksrule1231 good for him...
I love how on point his vocals are live too. You can tell he practices to be this consistently good.
agreed
Couldn’t agree more!!
that epic little breakdown piece at 3:11 is so much yes
Sweetness by Jimmy Eat World is definitely still a spectacular sounding rock song despite the serious meanings of this particular song.
always considered this song to be a punk one not a rock one but whatever, it's one of the greatest song I've heard in my entire 33y life
What's the meaning of this song?
@@NickFixHC to the commenter asking me the meaning of the song I appreciate you taking the time to inquire in a civil manner from some of the meanings I gathered on this incredible song part of the meaning symbolizes unrequited love the opposite of passionate mutual attraction between two consenting people though I intuitively understand this original song could also harbor other meanings
One of the best
it's almost like the best soundsing songs have the deepest meanings
Jim Adkins is an insanely talented, yet humble musician. Part of me wishes more people appreciated this kind of talent, but it’s obvious that he (and the rest of the band) really doesn’t care who likes the music. He is doing what he loves. Nothing more, nothing less.
Does anyone remember when Reading and Leeds always used to be a rock festival? The lineups these days are shocking compared to the 2010s.
I can't believe that this band is barely 1 year older than blinks age has made a huge difference but jimmy eat world sounds even better!
Colin Getz because Jim is a much better singer than Mark and Tom.
@@smithfan22 And Clarity is a better album than anything Blink has put out
@@michaelgraham9774 I mean Blink has always been marketed as crappy punk rock XD
@@michaelgraham9774 lol you wish
with a little sweet and simple numbing me
The sweetness will not be concerned with me.
Fancy seeing you here
Tom Delonge got them to play at his wedding, amazing
@max damage yes they played at tom's wedding
They are a lot better than a lot of the other bands in their lane. They’ve held up much better than Blink 182
Very very true. Although I would say JEW’s newer songs are awful in comparison to their older albums.
@@ericmsandoval JEWs haha I never noticed that haha. But yeah they are pretty awful. That band Lit does country now which is hilarious. I guess I would say sum 41 has stayed true to their sound this whole time even tho I'm not really into them.
@@ericmsandoval their older albums are some of the best ever. Their new ones are still amazing
@@ericmsandoval I was going to the tree
blink is disgusting nowadays
0:40 if even Waldo comes to your show, well it means you're a great band
michyrock1 DARNIT U BEAT ME TO THE PUNCH!
michyrock1 lmaooooooo
It’s super rare to have him in your concert ngl
Pure joy at 0:20. Love that guy.
I love how the drummer looks like he isn´t intrested at all
probably focused on the pocket
XD
And the guitarist looks high
Drummers have two modes: ultra focused with no emotion shown or batshit insane.
But still sound so damn good!
most underrated band in the world
most modern emo bands are influenced by them
Conspiracy theory joke 101: Jimmy is being held gunpoint and being forced to give a 200% every performance.
"Sinking into sweet uncertainty."
This performance is seriously phenomenal. Just wow! So good!
Woah ah oh ah oh!
Still to this day 🤙🏻
No mobile phones, HOW BEAUTIFUL
yeah cus it was 2011 lmao
The hTC Desire Z...... was bout to drop too lol!!!!
@@davidswope1632 I was rocking my Galaxy S2 in 2011 lol
That’s it! I was trying to figure out what was missing from what we see now
This is what you get when you give a shit about your music and fans, an excellent live performance. The top 3 bands (of today) I've seen live are Jimmy Eat World, Enter Shikari, and oddly enough Panic at the Disco (even though I'm not a fan of PATD)
*cough*muse*cough*
Dude. Panic at the disco literally couldn’t play their music live bc they were out together by a record label. Lmao. Maybe they’ve gotten better but they were awful for years. And I’ve heard their lead singer live and he’s not one I would say is excellent live.
HAHAHAHAHAHA. you guys probably wont believe me, but that wally is me :)
That was dope 😊
One hell of a talented band. I'm not sure who primarily writes the songs (I'm guessing the singer), but they're VERY good.
Jimmy ATE
NHL 2003
04* ;)
Tobbe Trollkarl 03* bro ;) Jarome Iginla on the cover lol
+Tobbe Trollkarl 03 😂
I get the same nostalgia
The golden slow mo breakway cam
This song has made me inexplicably cry since 2003. It does something to my soul.
It's crazy I only heard this song last week for the first time now I play it every day whoa whoa 🎸🤣
Wow look, zero influencers.
I get to see these guys perform with blink 182, 30 seconds to mars, offspring, and silversun pickups in september
beyond psyched
10 years later… I bet that was epic!
This is perfectly written song. One of the best ever.
IF YOURE LISTENING OAHHHH
No wonder I couldn't find Waldo....xD
What a beautiful performance, the way everyone just came together was amazing.
I remember in 5th grade back in 2002 my teacher was playing bleed America when I went in to talk to him about something during lunch. I was like “you like jimmy eat world?!” And he goes “I love them!!! I went to highschool with them and im friends with Zach the drummer and Jim the singer!” I couldn’t believe it haha he’s like yeah they went to Mountain View highschool Mesa Arizona where I’m from and went to school
I love how a simple song and unique strong voice is just amazing...especially live
He sounds a lot higher pitched live in alot of these live performances.
teebird11 why obviously? not all singers do
+teebird11 You realise pitch is different than volume right? He doesn't *have* to sing higher pitched. It's just that's how he sings and it still sounds good, it was changed so that it sounded good on radio since radio kinda takes away from the song.
teebird11 Again, pitch doesn't = volume. In fact if you were to sing to a large crowd of people, it'd be better to sing in a lower pitch because lower pitches travel much more easily than higher pitches, thus it'll reach people far back in the audience a lot easier.
teebird11 ?
to hit those pitches easier he sings more in his higher register I'd assume. on the record he's pushing hard to get that in your face effect. thus is just an assumption.
I've watched probably every live version of this on youtube and this is
imo the best one on here.
i found waldo
1:06 gives me chills.
You should watch franz ferdinand "take me out" from t in the park 2014. The crowd is lit.
I dont even need to be in a band like Jimmy Eat World I just want to be half as happy as Jimmy on stage. True inspiration
This is the first time I've seen them perform a song live. OMFG, they are amazing. One my fave songs of all time!!!!!!!!🎸
what a great song! one of my favorites off ALL TIME :)
What heavy sound.
The drum looks like a earthquake.
It sucks how many people never did a deep dive into them just because the middle put em on the bigger map. The middle is a fine song, but it legit constrains how good jimmy eat world can be..
I was wondering why it’s called The Reading Festival,then I saw all the words onstage.
This bro lost weight and managed to kee his voice, probably living a healthy lifestyle.
The drummer looks like he called called out of the office to fill in last minute, munching a burger on the way to the gig.
Psylonz Part from Jim they all have such a lame attitude on stage (always). Lots of great songs though!
Zach's not that bad...and Tom's alright
You're right. He does. He always looks and seems like that. He's a Pisces. They're all like that. Aloof. Like their mind is somewhere else thinking about something else. The reason? They are. Years ago, some "genius" did an analysis of the zodiac signs of all known serial killers. It's sad how many there were. There was more Pisces than any other. So, you better just watch it buddy ;(
Also keep in mind that drumming is exhausting, physical work. Not everyone is going to be bouncing all over the place. To me he seems completely in the song and focused on keeping solid time.
fuck you piece of shit
The power of a great pop song. So good live too
The last gasp of the days when most pop musicians could actually perform their music live. Now every top pop artist has comical "no autotune" versions of their performances posted to be embarrassed by.
This band truly can never disappoint. Will their full show be uploaded?
I was 18 when this song came out...how SWEET was this song at that age...hahahah...now im quarantined🤣🤣🤣...visiting my lost life's soundtrack!
Was it 99?
legendary performance. this track has aged so well.
damn that looked like a fun show
Loved this song since I was at college!!😎🤘🎸🎼🎵🎶
Damn, it is a really powerful and cool performance. Dynamic, melodic and so graceful experience of listening to their musical stuff! Just my applause! 😁
Man this song RIPS live, love it 🤘
The drummer making it look easy
Real music at its finest.
0:40 - found him
NHL 03 anyone?
arena anthem 💪
I just love these great moments on stage. Bruce Springsteen where he brought his mother and sister out, that was another one. Anyone got any others?
MGMT when they did Glastonbury I think. That was another good one.
You need to look up the Foo Fighters and the Rocking 1,000. One thousand Italians came together to play Learn to Fly in a field, as an effort to get the Foo Fighters to come to a city called Cesena in Italy (and that video is probably my favorite video on the internet). The Foo Fighters did indeed come to play for everyone who showed up in the first video. That video is also really cool, but nothing compares to the Italians all playing the song together.
That was probs the most fun i had in a crowd at the festival, full of legends!
A+ performance, they are on the peak of rock mountain
Jimmy eat world is one of those bands that ALWAYS sounds amazing live.
This is amazing live!!!!
i totally found waldo 0:41
What is the keyboard player's name?
Robin Vining
this song gave me great days, a lot of happiness back in days.
The vocals he look like tom delonge.
People keep saying that but I looked up Tom delonge and they don't even have the same eyes
I'm SPINNING FREE.... One of my favorite bands...authentic, poetic and true musicians... this songs KICKS ASS!
To this day I still ask, WHY was Jimmy so HUNGRY?
Because this level of talent leaves you ravenous for the SWEETNESS
I love every kind of music there is, I've heard and seen alot. This here, solid childhood classic.. it's getting better with time.. I had to come bac and jam to it one time, two times maybe 1000. That's how good this shit is
I love how you can really hear the snare and bass on the drums gives the jump right after the quite pause a good kick
0:42 FOUND HIM!!!!
Please go on tour... like from the bottom of every 2000s teenagers hearts, come back..
There coming to manchester uk this year
Remeber when concerts were just live music and lights instead of having to out on whole productions lol. I miss when shows were simple, and i feel like lots of bands get swept under the rug but are just like great live bands
Are you listening? Are you listening!
0:42 there’s Waldo!
3:14 what happened?
This song is so cool for us cause it takes us back to where shit was do simple.. like skateboarding and hanging out being young and careless
nhl 2003
stfu
This version is my new favourite....dude you have some pipes on you bro
Your voice is sick with it
Love it
I found Waldo at 0:42
Agreed, they were definitely the best band that played that day
Wow I wasn’t expecting them to sound so fantastic live
So Roy from The Office began playing drums after his breakup with Pam?
This was a sick live performance tbh.
who's that girl on the keyboard?
Courtney Marie Andrews
is this was florida then there would be a army of panthers fans arriving (nhl panthers)
I’m living for the diversity in the crowd
This band is so damn underrated
Great song. Fantastic album
0:20 🔥🔥🔥
I’ll be the first to admit I’m a total music snob being a fan of prog more than anything else. That being said if you look up in the dictionary how to write and perform a good 4 chord song you’d find these guys. So simple yet so satisfying and enjoyable
