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.
This song rings so true. The video confirms all of us when we burst our hearts in that perfect moment and would never dial it back. Pokey, thanks. That diner breakfast the morning after sometimes is the eyes of your future wife over a coffee cup
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.
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.. 🎶
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.
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....
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.
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.
There are lot of beautiful songs about love i love...but this one touch my french heart in Paris...city of love....i hear it when i walk in the old street looking all these people who are in love....and it's make my day...!!!
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.
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
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....
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.
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
In just a few days, Pokey has become my new addiction. Happened across one of his songs on a random Spotify list I listened to...and wham! Very similar to when I first heard Karise Eden or J.D. McPherson. I'm a bit overwhelmed.
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.

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!
If I had a heart, this song would melt it.
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.
Thank God people are still writing songs like this. Sinatra was great, this guy is awesome. Way to go Pokey
This song rings so true. The video confirms all of us when we burst our hearts in that perfect moment and would never dial it back. Pokey, thanks. That diner breakfast the morning after sometimes is the eyes of your future wife over a coffee cup
A beautiful way to say "i love you, thank you for seeing my potential".
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!!!
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.
I think this will be the next great wedding song. Absolutely took my breath away!!!
That old sound we was missing.. miss you grandma and grandpa.. love is still alive sometimes.
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.

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.
I had no idea a song was going to hit me so hard in the feels tonight.......FUCKING BRILLIANT!
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.
Beautiful song and video. Can't wait to hear the new album. Thank you, Pokey.
I agree, beautiful song and video. ❤️
Always end up watching this...Perfect.
Instantly one of my favorites. This is Pokey LaFarge.
There are lot of beautiful songs about love i love...but this one touch my french heart in Paris...city of love....i hear it when i walk in the old street looking all these people who are in love....and it's make my day...!!!
Gotta love Pokey

This is fantastic. You just keep getting better, Senor LaFarge.
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
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.
“Everyday’s a holiday when we’re walking on that levee...”😍
Heres to the videos that make you smile. *cheers*
So she sits down in front of you and her face says " So whatta you wanna do? " Real life perfect. BRAVO.
Superb.
He is such an amazing storie eller that sweet man ❤️🙏🏼
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 absolutely LOVE the old timely feels coming from his songs.
Just found out about Pokey,. Im lovn it ,this is great .
I just discovered this song on a French Radio, shazamed it and googled it!
Loved it at the first earing!
Just adore him and this darling little ditty.
I hope these guys keep this sound alive forever ❤
The woman in the video, Esther Rose is a great musician too , worth taking a listen to.
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.
0:16 Nighthawks, by Edward Hopper
YES!
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!
This video is up for "BEST OF THE CENTURY"...Esther and Andrew are magic here !!
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!
Good lord I absolutely love this song. Pokey's music is everything we didn't know we needed to just chill the fuck out.
great to see Esther Rose in the video. she has an excellent catalog do not miss it
GENIUS, pure and simple.
Great tune by very cerebral artist.
Beautiful...
That is just wonderful just love that song
Has to be the most romantic song and video ever.
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.
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
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.
This song redefined my thoughts of how music should make one feel. Truly an outstanding piece of magic
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
I love the straight blues he plays.
This song is perfection. Nailed it ❤
My mum used to call me Pokey, too. I love you Andrew! 💖💖
Best birthday present ever. Love Pokey and Esther.
A beautiful, sweet song
100% Excellent!!!
Moody enchantment. Love.
Authentic swingin vibes.
Thanx Mr LaFarge.
CW Stoneking, Billy Strings &
Pokey LeFarge would be my dream team concert after lockdown.

This is one of the best songs I've ever heard imo

This video is so lovely, makes me want to believe in love still. Thanks Pokey and Esther!
Beautiful
Just beautiful. Sweetly sad. And a gorgeous tune and vocal. In a just world, Pokey LaFarge would be HUGE.
Great music, with an equally great video.
Thanks
I get an electric ⚡ feeling every time I listen to Pokey.
You change and still manage to stay true to organic music! Just love you Pokey!
