My 19yr old son discovered Pokey and brought his music to me. Proud Dad here that my son gets and appreciates great music.
Good on you, he had to have gotten it from somewhere. I got my boy into Nathanial Rateliff and he's been exploring great music for the last few years. He brought Billy Strings and Mandolin Orange to my attention.
19 here also. Pokey is the best !
So did my daughter! :-)
That's some good parenting. You should be proud.
If I had a heart, this song would melt it.
Just discovered Pokey. I aint going anywhere, staying right here. I'm an instant fan!
I feel the same way! I discovered him last week and now I'm watching everything he's done.
100%
Yep me too!
Welcome to the club. Nothing like "real" music to help cure the soul, especially in these weird, weird times.
Few months ago for me. Went straight to the wed and bought the new album. Love it!
Thank God people are still writing songs like this. Sinatra was great, this guy is awesome. Way to go Pokey
A beautiful way to say "i love you, thank you for seeing my potential".
This is pure art of beauty in every aspect, motion, pace, storytelling, sets, color grading, music, filming, poem, acting. Pure love. God bless America for keeping the dream alive and keep the world dreaming that there is something bigger out there waiting for all of us.
I think this will be the next great wedding song. Absolutely took my breath away!!!
Man, this guy is something else I tell you what.
He is not shy or afraid to do it his way. The way of old. A good way.
The right way.
All this time I only had "Tom waits" for these types of songs, but now I have "Pokey Lafarge " too.
You are so right
Paul Anka has some nice ones too, and of course this chord progression is very reminiscent of “ Earth Angel”
@@Ford1GT I didn't know he did real stuff instead of comedy I like
Came here to comment the same. Glad I am not only one who heard the similarities
YES!!!
this man is magic! truly a gem
Absolutely!!!!
Absolutely beautiful. Pokey, I know you can't satisfy everyone, especially with your type of music. But your music means the world to some people, including me. Hope that helps. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
Tremendous talent in Pokey and his band. I have yet to find a song by him that I don't enjoy.... And the gal in this video is absolutely home grown pretty ! Not caked on make up, just naturally beautiful....
Beautiful song and video. Can't wait to hear the new album. Thank you, Pokey.
I agree, beautiful song and video. ❤️
Just found Pokey, interestingly enough on Spotify while listening to Amy Winehouse radio. I’m hooked, this song is sooo beautiful, can’t stop playing it.
Pokey LaFarge is an incredible musician, his lyrics are beautiful and definitely unique ! 🎼 I became a devoted fan three years ago when I discovered his music while listening to different Jazz and Blues bands.. 🎶
Love everything about this. I dig the early Tom Waits vibe. Beautiful Song.
With Toms music you can smell the stale beer and cigarette butts.
right on JH i thought the same thing... would love a waits cover of this tune.
This. It's pretty darn close to be one of my instant favourite tunes of all times. A little trip to heaven. Brilliant, raw stuff.
This is fantastic. You just keep getting better, Senor LaFarge.
Just seen him live for the 3rd time in SF last week, already bought tickets for his show in Santa Cruz in August for my birthday!
Instantly one of my favorites. This is Pokey LaFarge.
My husband says this is the song stuck in his head constantly. We met he didn't have a car, I was broken and poor.... It's perfect, he just got out of the Navy and moved here with antifriends....
I donʻt know how I got here and yes I was lost but now I am found. In less than 5 minuteʻs time I fell into this backstory of the video and I fell love in love with the moment.
I really loved this. Pokey, you are one of my favorite artists, and this really sounds like your older stuff. This one really touched me in a powerful way
Pokey's a trip, and he has yet to disappoint.
Waiting tables, at the burger stead,
you were sitting alone
i came up for your order and asked you what you want
you said, do you really wanna know ?
Just got in town i didn’t have a friend
i didn’t even have a car
down at the 3 clubs, i wrote you a poem
and you bought the drinks at the bar
Oh, then, you fell in love, with me,
YES you did !
You took me to A from Z
Yes you did !
It was something you could see
i was broken, i was poor, then said I could be yours
Though i don’t have a dime
Even bums, get lucky sometimes
I’ve never been a hero
I can’t pretend to have a plan
I just want to be a regular guy
Does that mean i could be your man ?
Not strong or fast wasn’t good in school
Yes when I sing I’m flat or sharp
mmmmh Then you took your aim at me
And you shot your arrow through my heart
Oh when you Fell in love with me
Yes you did !
You took me to a from z
Yes you did !
There was something you could see
Oh I found my key
We’re in perfectly harmony
With every verse and rhyme
Even bums get lucky sometimes
Well I don’t deserve nothing
But sometimes you get something yeah
Just for hanging around
Even bums get lucky sometimes
Thank you lady.
I love how theres not one rhyme in this whole song
@@jakubbarton1770 I didn’t have a dime. Even bums get lucky sometime is the only one I can remember off hand
I had no idea a song was going to hit me so hard in the feels tonight.......FUCKING BRILLIANT!
I discovered Pokey one night, going through all kinds of music. He's a bit of everything I Love, I will never stop listening to this Super Talent. He's been in movies too.
Love this old school vibe bringing it back. Now when I get old and grey. these will be the songs of the 20s
A seasoned human , even smokes inside the frame. And the music is great.
I absolutely LOVE the old timely feels coming from his songs.
Always end up watching this...Perfect.
“Everyday’s a holiday when we’re walking on that levee...”😍
Even bums get lucky sometimes. Well done. Pokey is music we need in these times. My new found gem.
In these times of trouble music is our salvation. Thank you so so very much reverend LaForge. The music you create is helping save music itself.
Finally, a musician making great music during this generation. Everything i could of wished for has finally came true. Yes. Very nice. Nice bubble bath music.
Heres to the videos that make you smile. *cheers*
Gotta love Pokey
This video is so lovely, makes me want to believe in love still. Thanks Pokey and Esther!
I hope these guys keep this sound alive forever ❤
I just discovered this song on a French Radio, shazamed it and googled it!
Loved it at the first earing!
Absolutely beautiful and a unique melody. I'm going to enjoy learning this. Thanks, Pokes!
Hey Pokey's back again with a brand new beautiful song👌

You change and still manage to stay true to organic music! Just love you Pokey!
Authentic swingin vibes.
Thanx Mr LaFarge.
CW Stoneking, Billy Strings &
Pokey LeFarge would be my dream team concert after lockdown.
Big love to all.
So she sits down in front of you and her face says " So whatta you wanna do? " Real life perfect. BRAVO.
Pokey, in so many videos, makes love look good
Ya you and I both know that Bull Shit. But the illusions is nice.
Long live Pokey!!
ahhh here we go, Friday Morning, yayyy weekends arrived and i'm enjoying morning coffee with these tunes ! POKEY FOR PRES !!!! lol awwww your not doing Az in your tour --- weeps in a nostalgic way ---- :P
Rock Bottom Rhapsody Is only a few days away! I have loved every new release so far! Great work- Pokey!
Just adore him and this darling little ditty.
Love the soulful vibe. A love story perfectly told. Bravo.
How often can you hear a song first time and love it ? It’s happened to me five times so far and they are all by pokey ! Superb music
This song redefined my thoughts of how music should make one feel. Truly an outstanding piece of magic
i hope this gets every pokey fan to buy esther rose's albums
A beautiful, sweet song
That is just wonderful just love that song
This song and video are masterpieces. Not the first of your nor last. Thanks for everything Pokey.
I love the style and mood change for Pokey. The backup is luscious. Nice work Pokey!
My mum used to call me Pokey, too. I love you Andrew! 💖💖
With Esther Rose! This is my new fave vid!
Beautiful song...just a really great song. Thank you, Pokey
Just found out about Pokey,. Im lovn it ,this is great .
This video is up for "BEST OF THE CENTURY"...Esther and Andrew are magic here !!
Beautiful...
There is a movie on Netflix called
The Devil All The Time
And Pokey plays a preachers brother who is confined to a wheelchair! It is set in this time for his music style! It was a beautiful tragedy of a movie..........brilliantly portrayed by all actors!
that’s how I got introduced tonight, WOW. Started pouring through his catalogue. Literally the best new music I’ve heard in the last 20 years. This song in particular is on league with Louis Armstrong’s “what a wonderful world” for tugging at the heartstrings. It’s on the wedding playlist. Great flick btw.
great to see Esther Rose in the video. she has an excellent catalog do not miss it
The woman in the video, Esther Rose is a great musician too , worth taking a listen to.
Why cant everything be this 50 60s style so awesome
Because the tribe imports “cultural enrichment” “diversity makes us stronger” bullshit lies to destroy white western nations.
Great music, with an equally great video.
Thanks
I'm going to pokey's upcoming concert in Asheville man i can not wait
Moody enchantment. Love.
Just beautiful. Sweetly sad. And a gorgeous tune and vocal. In a just world, Pokey LaFarge would be HUGE.
Today I needed this type of tune, wonderfully made, as Usual with such a talented Crew !
Make America love music again.
My "2020 Record of thé Year"
Oh Pokey! You did it again!
I can't believe he throws his cigarette butts on the ground!! Beautiful video brother.
Has to be the most romantic song and video ever.
Pokey has written and performed the final word on Frank, Dean and Sammy. Nothing more ever need be sung
This song makes me think of Christmas
✨✨✨✨🎅☃️🌲🌨️🎁💝✨✨✨✨
This is a great song Pokey
This is one of the best songs I've ever heard imo
Yes sir.
I love the straight blues he plays.
Awesome!
Thanks Pokey. That fit the moment for me beautifully. Cant wait for the full album release.
Well what do you know! In digging in the mountains to find a classic song, i think i have uncovered a gem of a song!
Really pretty. Reminds me of Nat King Cole's "Somewhere Along the Way".
Great tune by very cerebral artist.
Fantastic song and GREAT video, thanks a lot!!
100% Excellent!!!
Love, love, love. ❤️
Beautiful.
Thank you UA-cam suggestions. Subscribed
Sublime! Giving me all sorts of feels and hope in these crazy ass times! 😍
Beautiful
This is spiritual on many levels. God bless this man.
Outstanding

Love ya pokey, a sinner and a saint, love songs and old school do whap misfit shit that true punk rock fans can turn up and down the dail to at the end of the night and the beginning of the day.
