Absolutely as dope as it gets. Across the board f******g amazing. You know a song and version is legit when you find yourself home alone, with headphones turned all the way up and by the end you find yourself dancin along wishing it wasn’t ending. That’s what I’m looking for in music!!!!!
One of my favorite songs ever, but unfortunately I can't listen to it live. Just about every song l love sounds much better live to me than the recorded version, in fact live recordings is virtually all I like to listen to. But I have never heard one single live version of this song where he doesn't absolutely murder it. Unbelievable.
Bro, I wish I would have watched this video BEFORE I bought tickets to their concert! I literally just bought them less than. 30 minutes ago! 2 tickets, with VIP club access! $380. There is an upside though.......they're opening for Santana at that concert. He never disappoints
No he changes it on purpose, and a lot of the time it ends up better, look at their entire “live across a wire” album, especially “round here” live at Hammerstein ballroom
@@Illiyinmusic dude, what? Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson, Ray Charles, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Garth Brooks, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stevie Wonder, Bruce Springsteen, Prince, David Bowie just to name a few who all played (or still play) their classic/most famous songs and don't sound like shitty karaoke like Adam Duritz does here
It looks like the singer was sitting on the couch eating pizza, and they reminded him he had a gig, and he was like "dam, gimme the mic, lets get this over with"
I could really careless what people are going say in the damn comments, but this man a musical genius and has always inspired my mind in so many creative ways. No matter how many times he sings off key or changes the lyrics, it's still beautiful. Adam is fucking amazing! :D
Im loving how you guys are playing together with the 3 different guitar parts! Awesome stuff, hope I can get to see you again live this or next year in NZ ;)
I love how his voice hasn't changed in like what, 20 years? That's crazy. Personally, I find this version of Mr. Jones amusing because of how Adam sings it.
Its called getting old ,cant sing like the way he use to but there still a great live band and they always change most of the songs around which sounds great 😊
I’ve been a huge fan since August and Everything After, and always will be…in spite of Adam and his enormous ego. He knows that everyone hates how he utterly destroys the studio version of everything they ever recorded, but he doesn’t care. He’s just committing to the bit at this point.
Seems like a lot of negativity about their live performances. I recently seen counting crows and absolutely loved that he didn't sing the songs the same way as the recordings. I enjoyed the stories he told during long interludes in songs. If you want to listen to the cd go for it, but this band knows how to put on a show.
Couldn't agree with this comment more! I loved hearing Adam tell the stories of what the songs were about. Such an emotional performance when I saw them last summer. Easily one of my favorite bands
This video is so dissapointing because "mr jones" is a such a great song and its being sung so badly ... If i were the front man's bandmates, the first thing i would do is tell him how bad he sounds ... Either they have a bad taste or they just dont give a fuck n just wanna get thru the show to get their money ... Damn, SMH 🙄
...SONG OF THE DAY!!! COUNTING CROWNS - MR. JONES (1993) Sin lugar a dudas uno de mis géneros favoritos es el ALTERNATIVO 😌, recuerdo que en aquella época uno se identificaba a la perfección con las letras, además de que te daba el sentimiento de MOTIVACIÓN 🤘🏿. Es momento que conozcan la historia detrás del nombre, ya que hace referencia a uno de sus mejores amigos: el bajista Marty Jones de la bNd donde tocaron antes The Himalayan’s. Y la letra nos describe sobre una noche que salieron a un bar llamado New Amsterdam en San Francisco en Columbus, ahí se emborracharon completamente. Los dos se sentaron en el bar y se encontraron con otro músico, quien estaba rodeado de mujeres. Entre los dos bromearon sobre lo “fácil” que sería la vida si fueran rockstars. SIN EMBARGO Y LA REALIDAD ES QUE AUNQUE PARECIERA QUE NUNCA ESTARÍAN SOLOS, LA VERDAD ES QUE A VECES UNO SE RODEA DE PUROS INTERESES PERSONALES, NO DIGO QUE ESTE MAL, PERO DEBERÍA DE SER MUTUO EL BENEFICIO 😌. 🤘🏿ULTRAMEGAROLOTA🤘🏿14/12/2020
His voice has definitely aged, bit this is as great as the cd version because you can see his emotin and still get into the aong and just feel the song
The lyrics are actually correct, just spelt in a different, hard to understand way. The performance might be different, but the lyrics are definitely the same.
I've heard this guy sings it live completely different than the radio version some people like to hear different versions of a song then the way it was recorded myself I don't if I want to hear a different version the way something was recorded I'll go to a karaoke night you can pull any drunk guy off the street to sing it like this I don't mean to be a hater just facts are facts
Counting Crows and Adam duritz did things their way and always will. What makes unique is they sing the way THEY want to and don’t change what they are feeling fits best.
I don’t know really know Adam and the band, but don’t say his voice is terrible it’s isn’t his fault that he voice is not as good as on the cds, he’s probs had drugs and smoked & stuff, that would of changed the tone of voice, you can’t really blame him that much really, I mean stop hating! It’s not that bad I’ve heard worst! Omg Wow!
La otra vez salí con unos amigos a un karaoke y cante está canción pero con esta versión y fue un éxito jajaja y soy un pésimo canta te pero me deje llevar por la música 😁😁
i like imagining his hair getting bigger and bigger every time the camera cuts back to him
Wait; I thought it DID get bigger.
You mean the wig getting bigger? Lol
😂😂😂😂😂
Is that a wig?
@@easygrin1127 no
One of the ...BEST. SONGS. EVER!!!!!!
Absolutely as dope as it gets. Across the board f******g amazing. You know a song and version is legit when you find yourself home alone, with headphones turned all the way up and by the end you find yourself dancin along wishing it wasn’t ending. That’s what I’m looking for in music!!!!!

Listen to it live at Chelsea studios, you’ll feel something
Bro, I wish I would have watched this video BEFORE I bought tickets to their concert! I literally just bought them less than. 30 minutes ago! 2 tickets, with VIP club access! $380. There is an upside though.......they're opening for Santana at that concert. He never disappoints
Adam Duritz being Adam Duritz. Always chaging the way he interprets his songs
no, it's because he can't reproduce the trickery they did in the studio. this sounds horrible. every live version is horrible. studio rock stars only.
No he changes it on purpose, and a lot of the time it ends up better, look at their entire “live across a wire” album, especially “round here” live at Hammerstein ballroom
He wants to be Bob Dylan.
@@leemp337 and most of the studio recordings aren’t even recorded in a studio, after most of the songs you can hear them cheering and carrying on
@@peteglanton9259 and Mr Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
Any real CC fan knows that they play every song differently every single night lol.
But so poorly?
this is bad. Sing for cripes sake. It's a song not a prose reading.
Give me the Captain Kirk.
Coming your way fam.
knowsmebyname lol!
Doesn't stop it from being terrible
Marcou a minha Infância, até hoje eu ouço quase todos os dias 🇧🇷👏🏿👍🏿🙏🏿 !!!
Essa é demais mano
I think Mr. Jones has passed this guy too many bottles lol
😂
Play a song for 20 years plus and then talk dude. You're a listener from your pov ya I get it but yeah. Stfu lol

Hahaha!

🤣🤣🤣 I cant stop laughing at your comment,
What a music Quality!!! I love this!!! Not a mistake in guitars, bass or drums, keys perfect on top!!
I've listened to 5 different live versions of this song now, like in a row, just now
This song is freaking cool. I really get off on this song. That band rocks!
Good god, this live rendition is the best I've ever seen.
1:53 this sounds like an art teacher talking to a kid
👏
💀
that fro dates back to the 90's ladies and gents
we saw then last week and they were absolutely wonderful! this was my first time and they did not disappoint.
Ask and you will receive, God said!, within reason!..
He didn´t sing faithfuly to the original versions because he just don´t want he just improvised
yes
People didn’t come to hear it sung like that 😮😢
Admittedly I really liked this version .. bit off kilter but it was cool
If you people want to hear the album version, go listen to the album. People who love live music get it.
how the fuck could anybody bag his singing. he almost sounds the same he does in the studio. the production is absolutely amazing!!
Mr. Jones rap version?
I could really careless what people are going say in the damn comments, but this man a musical genius and has always inspired my mind in so many creative ways. No matter how many times he sings off key or changes the lyrics, it's still beautiful. Adam is fucking amazing! :D
Yahhhh man it's so awesome hearing him half ass sing....such an inspiration
Não tem como não gostar dessa musica-VIVA Counting Crows-
Verdade. ☺
mas essa versão ao vivo é horrível
Marcou a minha infância 👏🏿👍🏿🙏🏿 !!!
Im loving how you guys are playing together with the 3 different guitar parts! Awesome stuff, hope I can get to see you again live this or next year in NZ ;)
Love this song. I don’t understand why he always talks this song instead of singing it…
Seeing them tmr at credit one stadium its charleston!
“You know GRAY IS MY FAVORITE COLOR IIIIIII FELT SO SYMBOLIC” 🎶
I love how his voice hasn't changed in like what, 20 years? That's crazy. Personally, I find this version of Mr. Jones amusing because of how Adam sings it.
My dog could sing the song better than this shit performance he put on in this video.
+Marcus Aurelius yeah, it is pretty bad. Still funny though
same
Its called getting old ,cant sing like the way he use to but there still a great live band and they always change most of the songs around which sounds great 😊
That LP '59 it's Aweshome!
I’ve been a huge fan since August and Everything After, and always will be…in spite of Adam and his enormous ego. He knows that everyone hates how he utterly destroys the studio version of everything they ever recorded, but he doesn’t care. He’s just committing to the bit at this point.
Best song ever best band ever. Please come to Hoyt Sherman place in Des Moines, Iowa 👍🏻👊🏻🇺🇸
All-time classic 🔥
He still can use his voice very well. He just seems like he couldn't care less to put his heart into it and try to actually sing.
He can sing he just singing how he's Feeling atm, So if u would say Sing like in your Album he could do that easy
Adam still fire idk why people hate because his voice change but it's normal you know?
HEY VEVO! Please re-post your karaoke video for "Round Here" by Counting Crows!
Σα τον Σεφερλή με περούκα είναι, θεός :)
Loved Mr. Jones since day one
Una rola poca madre, la conoci hace unos buenos años gracias a un primo que todas las noches la ponia a todo volumen..
never heard a live version that's good. they must have really did magic in the studio because that's the only place it sounds good.
Best version I've heard in along time, resurrects the song.
yes
Are you high on something? That was horrible...
It was like a drunk uncle in a karaoke
please ... if somebody found the voice of the singer please return it
+Carlos Hernández Salazar
LOL
ao vivo essa musica sai horrivel sempre!
TREMENDOSSSSSSS
The lead singer of the counting crows looks and sounds like someone doing an impression of the lead singer of the counting crows
At least he's not lip syncing...
Music is just the way you hear it. I love this version. To each is own.
Peace

deadaelus I hope they come to Atlanta next year
absolutely righ. i say them last week and they were great
Couldn't agree with this comment more! I loved hearing Adam tell the stories of what the songs were about. Such an emotional performance when I saw them last summer. Easily one of my favorite bands
Sou fã da banda, mas que esse show está muito xoxo, saudades dos antigos!
He changed the rythym... No please don't do that... It was so good in 93
Anybody know their best live version of Mr Jones? Having trouble
This video is so dissapointing because "mr jones" is a such a great song and its being sung so badly ... If i were the front man's bandmates, the first thing i would do is tell him how bad he sounds ... Either they have a bad taste or they just dont give a fuck n just wanna get thru the show to get their money ... Damn, SMH 🙄
I see the comments and everybody hating. I think they sound good asf still y’all just stuck in his youth
bad singer good band
Sou fã de vcs
Amazing...Brazil loves Mr Jones!
What a slap in the face to the one Counting Crows fan in the world.
Yeah, fuck yeah!
the bowie shirt means everything
legit thought this was someone greenscreening the gig, had to skip through the video to make sure
...SONG OF THE DAY!!!

Man that wig is epic 😂
I feel the man's soul...great live version.
I love it when bands make their own shred videos.
Boa noite
Eu amo esse cantor ❤️❤️❤️
Bjs 💋
He is definitively high
Is there any good live version of this song?
Cantor de estúdio, fato!
Where the hell do they sell big dreadlock wigs like that?
precious, f-ing killed it!
Josie my josie forever
This is live story singing! What do you expect? This was great!
My God! Não sabia que o João Kléber tocava guitarra! o.O

wow never seen a version like this one I'm I wasn't there 😅
2:18 the best part
It was?
I've made a mistake coming here. Back to the studio version, I go.
LMAO!! I read your comment as soon as he started singing. You nailed it!! Big mistake for me to come here!! lol
nicholas kraus You and I both! Thought I'd treat myself to seeing how great he was live, but...big mistake.
Check out his earlier performance. He's 52 years old now and his voice changed a bit as he got older.
hahahaha! I think he smoke to much dude that's why he act like, totttttt...
but no worry Mr.jones we still fcking love your music.
niptuck117 I feel ya dude
ok no problem to sing different from the studio version but everytime? I cant just find only one video that he sings in live like the studio :(
Counting Crows and Adam duritz did things their way and always will. What makes unique is they sing the way THEY want to and don’t change what they are feeling fits best.

Hell Yeah!.

I’m going back to Mr. Brightside Live
That hat is wild.
Doesn't this Song Make Life...., or...Make Life Think abut Life? Or Make you think abut what Life Makes you think? LMBO!!!
This song makes me think about...chilling? :v
This song makes me think thanks Christ I never wasted any money going to see these live !!!!
La otra vez salí con unos amigos a un karaoke y cante está canción pero con esta versión y fue un éxito jajaja y soy un pésimo canta te pero me deje llevar por la música 😁😁
How does he put his short on? They just stitch it around him
O cara virou um bicho esquisito. Até eu canto essa música melhor que isso. Meu Deus!
0:23 SIDESHOW BOB
Wig?
I can't tell if this phoned in or just very improvised
I tried singing to this version.... but I cried instead
temazooo!!!
Sad to see so much negativity in these comments! Since Counting Crows was formed they have always been different. Fantastic version!
Fantastic version of a crackhead on the mic. I bet his band mates HATE him ruining every song that they are playing so well.
Bravo.
