Stop doubting your talents. Also, next time you plan to go to Meteghan, let me know. So I can drive back to the boonies and jam with you in my Uncle Hugh's barn with yo' mawfackin talented ass, brah. Stogies and whisky to follow.
clinker I saw him open for Beth Hart just a few days ago. I had found Matt's music on UA-cam a while back and loved it ...so when I was at the Taft Theater for Beth, I didn't know Matt was the opener....talk about excited! I was thrilled that it was he whom I'd found on YT. And what a display of awesome talent. Beth Hart raved about Matt on her set too. Altogehter, it was one amazing show!
46 years old, I've "heard everything", I'm an acoustic musician and singer with a fortunate voice, and I've had my top 3 list for 25 years. This guys voice and talent has me rethinking EVERYTHING. What an absolutely glorious voice. I'm moved in ways I did not know I had missed out on. I mean, holy shit. A true master.
I think he had an audio track playing that note at the end just for fun.. if you listen, right when he starts that note, you hear the audio sorta spasm... I think cuz I His volumes didn't blend perfectly. This is the best version of this song I've ever heard
@@dandan6778 LOL Just watched him live in concert tonight at a music festival....and I can vouch for the fact he can hold a note for ever...He was absolutely amazing!
Proof that this world is seriously messed up. Matt's talent should be dominating the music world..not as something I accidentally stumbled on as a UA-cam suggestion. Outstanding doesn't begin to describe this..
babybelle5 exactly what I was thinking as I just stumbled upon it myself. I’m 21, the majority of my generations musical preferences really disappoint me. Lack of sincerity, genuineness, and meaning in almost every song and artist they’d chose over someone like this.
@@denniscotey8182 Good thing that's just your opinion because it is a dumb one. Music is art and art is subjective. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder".
Why is this man not a superstar? We gotta put up with bullshit fake pop artists and this dude who has talent beyond belief and he is virtually unheard of?
@@sandilarson2884 You seem offended. If you like current pop music, hey, make yourself happy. If you believe it is objectively the best music being produced today, and that it is born out of a genuine love for music, I and many others can refute that. Some people (myself included) think it would be more equitable if people like this guy got more exposure and the commercial, over-produced pop "sensations" got less.
@@AbigailPoirier you also sound offended. Pop music has always been shallow, it's not just current pop music. I agree with Sandi, this has nothing to do with anyone else, just enjoy the music. Maybe this guy turned down record deals, ya never know. Maybe he doesn't want to be bigger.
Jesus, Mary, & Joseph this man is beyond blessed with talent. I shut the video down on a Friday, re-opened it on Sunday and he was STILL holdding that same note.
I saw him a few years ago, his voice overpowered the PA. It was amazing. I got to meet him before the show, he was so nice and so humble. Just a great soul.
@@jaymoose9313 I live in the same small community as Matt, and I can tell you with great authority and conviction that he will aspire to do many things in life, but "be a piece of shit" is not one of them. One of the most solid cats around, guitar or not...
Everyone's talking about his voice, what about the fire in that guitar playing!!?? Magnificent control and phrasing. Absolutely wonderful performance all around!
Ain't no sunshine has always been my favorite song and I stumbled upon this version, so now... now I'll never be able to listen to this song any other way again. Matt, you are a genius.
I understand where people are coming from when they say "this is overdone". But you have to understand, this is a blues musician, doing a blues version cover of an amazing song. And he has one of the most powerful voices on planet earth. For him to understate his talent would be a travesty. This is exactly what a Matt Andersen fan wants to see when they see him perform. This is HIM. The Blues are passionate and emotional, and this is perfect in my opinion.
Floored. As a musician, I am absolutely floored by this performance every single time I listen to it. The power, the precision, the soul.. If I can get to half the prowess of this man with my voice and guitar I'll die a happy musician.
707king Maybe that you want to got control over to many things, mate... Let it go... you know your scales, you're in tone... let it flow and you'll estonished yourself... trust me.... not. Just do it.
Every disappointment. every trial. Every heartbreak. Every single painful moment of my life was all made worth it because this beautiful musician performed this. Thank you Matt Anderson.
Wait wait wait. Why is this such an old clip and I'm just seeing it? Who's this big glass of soulful melody? How is this the first time I'm hearing of this man. Straight to favourites ->
B.B. King's jaw just dropped and hit the floor, I came across this amazing voice after watching a Celebration of Life video for another amazing Canadian singer, Bruce Guthro, it may sound cliche but this just strengthens the saying :"It ain't over till the Fat Lady sings", because the most amazing vocalists are actually of larger body size
HOLY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NORMALLY I AM A TRADITIONALIST FOR SONGS BUT MATT JUST BLEW THE DOORS OFF THIS..30 SECONDS OR SO AT THE END HOLDING A NOTE...........JUST AMAZING!!!!! CHILLS AND GOOSEBUMPS!!!! (SORRY FOR CAPS) GOD BLESS
Seriously....dude has more soul than most musicians and is out there for the joy of the crowd. And as a bald man, I have to say.....I have legit hair envy. Gorgeous locks
What a genius guitar player and what an increadible voice. One of my favorite versions of "Ain't no sunshine". I joined a Matt Anderson Concert in Berlin in 2019 and the show was sooooooo good! Thanks to Matt for sharing this with us.
I never had an experience like this before. I have never seen or heard of this man in my life. But a mix of that dangerously precise guitar and that voice, he had me on edge throughout the whole thing I couldn't stop thinking he is going to f**k up any second either by stretching the guitar out too long or his voice but, to my astounding surprise, he didn't. I have never had a piece of music keep me on the edge of my seat like this. Amazing.
If you look hard enough you’ll find my comments from 2 years ago, 1 year ago, 3 months ago, and yesterday. Why do I keep coming back you might ask? Well I’m just making sure it’s still the same great sound it was when I left it. And it never is. It’s always better.
I could listen to you sing your grocery list Matt...ohmygosh, the raw passion, range, purest pitch...mesmerizing. Thank you for your passion, and powerful playin'. Wow, human talent expressed so viscerally, so magnificently, and the delivery, primal in essence, touching in reality, touching the collective on every dimension...the control in that voice and on that instrument...mind boggling, so I'll just feel it and be satisfied and appreciative. Bravo.
Oh my God. First I have to find Tash Sultana looking around utube, now Matt! This guy should be world famous. I can’t believe this voice. Un believable. I can still hear him holding that note.
I've had the pleasure and honour of watching Matt perform in Ottawa several times. I found him by accident and was raving about him to some of my friends from PEI who knew him well and they were really amused as how I was going nuts over a (then) rather known musician. Matt is a humble gentle tower of talent that still embodies what a true, true artist is. He's humble and shy to the point I wanna say "for fucks sake man, walk a bit taller" .... but I love him for what he is. I believe on the 7th day god took a break yes .... but he made this human. I also believe he closes his eyes on stage because he actually plays for himself and gets so lost in each song, each time he sings it. His cover versions of songs like this and "I'm on fire" is amazing but he is also a poet when it comes to his own song writing. When he performs and is introducing a song, his take in very poetic yet funny and sometimes cheeky, which is really cool. I have a family and am a professional, if not I would so have toured with Matt as a stage hand just to be able to hear him sing night after night (and maybe even jam sometimes) ...... and oh yeah .... I would SO smoke up next time I go to one of his concerts (and I don't even "smoke" that much). P.S. - Matt's so big because you can't house as big a heart as he has in a smaller vessel.
I've never met him. I'm just now stumbling upon the 9th wonder of the world! I want to know why he isn't heard of! He left my jaw on the floor, and every hair on my body was standing on end! He probably has no clue that he is making people everywhere feel feelings they've never felt. Why is it that the musicians of this magnitude are rarely heard of? My God....he is PHENOMENAL!
Went into this with a negative attitude, just feel like covers of this song give off a pretentious vibe before you even click on. But I have to say I was blown away and glad I watched it, it was a genuine expression of emotion and not just showing off (although he has talent like crazy)
Yeah this wasn't a gimmicky showoff cover at all Cut to the guy leaning back 45 degrees fingertapping with both hands on the neck for 15 seconds straight in the middle of "Ain't no Sunshine"
I do not know how many times I have watched this over the years. Amazing voice and talent. I can not imagine how it is possible to get 2400 thumbs down
Googled my name. This went better than expected.
Stop doubting your talents. Also, next time you plan to go to Meteghan, let me know. So I can drive back to the boonies and jam with you in my Uncle Hugh's barn with yo' mawfackin talented ass, brah. Stogies and whisky to follow.
Amazing, just Heartfelt

Its not that gingers dont have soul, there just wasn't any left over after Matt Anderson was born.
Bro.
Broh
Bruh
Haha!

It's not weight, just space for all that blues
Oh ja... 👍👌
Nice! He'd like that!
"It's not fat, it's power" - somewhere I can't remember right now
At 0.50 I just lost it!
It's not the size of the man it's the quality and his soul in his voice this man has one hell of a voice

What an absolutely glorious voice. I'm moved in ways I did not know I had missed out on. I mean, holy shit. A true master.
Everyone is talking about the vocals (which are amazing), but his guitar playing is phenomenal.
Yeah that's impressive
voice n guitar are killers.. damn x1000...
Only wish he used it more, would've like a nice minute long riff in there
He is just phenomenal.
@SuperLifestream If you fuck up when using delay live everyone knows it. It can't be hidden. He carried himself through everything, and it was epic.
Don't know how I got here, but I don't want to leave.
Same

Let’s just all stay forever.
Not a religious man but I can be and amen

The funny thing is just as I read your comment, he hit that note.
I think he had an audio track playing that note at the end just for fun.. if you listen, right when he starts that note, you hear the audio sorta spasm... I think cuz I

Exactly
@@J.Chabek i dont know. didnt really like it. hurt a little to listen to to be honest

This is now officially the correct way to perform this song.
Bill withers, Bobby Bland, Joe Cocker, Zakk Wylde, all are great. I dont think there could ever be a outright correct way to sing this great song.
@@chefdan87 it is a joke
@@denniscotey8182 yeah, he wanted to do something else, just the harmonies and lyrics are the same

definately
@@SGsamsky hehe yeah so true!
Just glad you’ve found it! I’ve been listening to this many times each year for the past 8 years

I was looking for a comment like this because I also feel shame
Why is this man not a superstar? We gotta put up with bullshit fake pop artists and this dude who has talent beyond belief and he is virtually unheard of?
This is why I get my music almost exclusively from UA-cam- it's where the talent is.
Why do people always have to drag someone else down to make a point. The guy is talented which has nothing to do with anyone else.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph this man is beyond blessed with talent. I shut the video down on a Friday, re-opened it on Sunday and he was STILL holdding that same note.
This man needs to tour with someone like Chris Stapleton. Two of them together would take over!
😅
Thank you UA-cam algorithm.
I honestly needed this
I saw him a few years ago, his voice overpowered the PA. It was amazing. I got to meet him before the show, he was so nice and so humble. Just a great soul.
How refreshing!
Almost as if there's a delay!
@@lewisginger349 he's talking about PA like Pennsylvania, since the blackouts started during one of his concerts

As long as it needs to be 😍
16 seconds.

Me too.
@@nspector your reply has made me come back to rewatch hehe. thank u
@@ferocula Oh, that's so great
Me too....at least once a week....
And here we are years later... 🎸
Great voice, you carved your name in that song, mate.
Even the guitar is sweating of this musical performance.
He ate the guitarist, the vocalist, the bassist, the drummer, and the devil. Respect.
Mike Llerena 😂👏👍👌
Mike Llerena then he will be going straight to the finals with Tenacious D
😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Mikel Tami Bwahahaha 😂😂😂
If ever there was an example of singing from your heart or soul this is it!
He sang his heart out and left his guts and soul on the floor! We understand the pain of that man.
No doubt!
I stumbled on this expecting a decent cover by a complete stranger, instead i was transported to an entirely different dimension by a complete genius.
His mother must’ve been in so much pain when he was birthed cuz you know he came out holding onto that guitar. Crazy. Where has this been all my life.
If I remember correctly, Matt didn't learn to play the guitar until he was in his 20's.
That’s not where I expected that comment to go
😂
@@TheRazzaManazza
I watched an interview of him and he said he started playing at 14, but I still was guessing much younger.
Well that's why we dont have alot of Blues musicians anymore, it's all in him.
He ate them all

You're in luck then
Everyone's talking about his voice, what about the fire in that guitar playing!!??
Magnificent control and phrasing. Absolutely wonderful performance all around!
This man does not need a microphone.
I've been watching UA-cam covers for over 15 years and this is the best by a mile. What a performance...

ha dude we need more live streams !! :P

Cool
I really have to thank UA-cam for recommending me this. This guy is AN ARTIST, A SUPERSTAR. Now I feel ashamed that I am 10 years late on this.
Thanks UA-cam's algorithm for show me this unbelievable voice and guitar player!
Wow
For once UA-cam algorithm showed me something amazing. it just took it 11 year. Amazing voice and guitar play. thank you for this Matt
That last note! Holy shit! This was beautiful. Screw all the haters.
If this is not love and soul and art in its purest form..then idk what is..

How did I just randomly stumble across one of the must stunning performances I have every watched in my life😮
2:33 when he switched to the deep voice my heart stopped for a second. HE 👏 DID 👏 THAT 👏
Bro, I got chills all over my body when he did that
Just wow
Bro, I grew a pussy and it soaked my jeans.
Holy shit! I don't have the proper Vocabulary to give him the proper respect for his talent .
Steven Thomas hahaaaa lmao that’s how I feel too!! I was reading comments .. all ready to leave my little ditty .. & now I’m like hammy🤣
One of the greatest songs ever played
Holy moly what a voice, the strength, clarity, the artistry…otherworldly talent
Seriously....dude has more soul than most musicians and is out there for the joy of the crowd. And as a bald man, I have to say.....I have legit hair envy. Gorgeous locks
The best cover of this song I've heard so far. And the way he holds a note... dayum!!! Pretty damn good recording of a live performance also.
Massive man. Massive talent.
The algorithm is obviously not working right if it took 11 years for me to find this. Hell of a voice!
i was today years old when i started listning to this guy
Incredible, the notes he’s playing at 4:01 are actual magic
So glad someone mentioned this... So fucking crisp 👌🏼
Studio quality performance in 1 live take, crazy powerful 🔥

One of the best performances I've ever seen.
Lord Jesus this is the best I've ever heard the song be played by anyone this and then John Mayer's live version the man brother you just killed this
That voice control at 1:30-1:38 is insane!
Man SANG that song. My goodness he played that.
I could listen to you sing your grocery list Matt...ohmygosh, the raw passion, range, purest pitch...mesmerizing. Thank you for your passion, and powerful playin'.

Seeing him live tomorrow night and I cannot wait!
I have several goosebump rushes throughout this performance. Loved every minute.
Wtf have I just witnessed! Especially with that last note. Such energy in his voice and guitar play!
Glastonbury 2010 was literally the best Thursday of my life. Loved those stubby fingers ever since.
Oh my God. First I have to find Tash Sultana looking around utube, now Matt! This guy should be world famous. I can’t believe this voice. Un believable. I can still hear him holding that note.
Beautiful melody personified ... this guy is a genius!
I saw amazing Matt sing it over 10 years ago and I still can't get enough.
This is not a cover. It's a brand new experience.
Yeah, well put.
Wow! How I got here, I don't care! This is awesome! What a talented man.

Dude i had low hopes for this as well but this makes the original look like the shitty cover
Yeah this wasn't a gimmicky showoff cover at all
Cut to the guy leaning back 45 degrees fingertapping with both hands on the neck for 15 seconds straight in the middle of "Ain't no Sunshine"
came for the playing... stayed for the vocals... and the passion... that was frickin awesome! This boy has serious talent.
Man! Found this March 7 2020!!!!! Thank you.
How could someone even dislike this like what’s the point it’s amazing
Wow that’s a surprise to hear such a powerful and soulful voice from this young man. He’s great 👍🏽
OH MY GOD.....best version EVER....like a punch in my gut.
UA-cam's being glitchy, why can't I like the video more than once?
Wow, what a fantastic performance and that voice? I'm Speechless...
I just found this talented man and I am hooked!!
I come back every year or so to listen to this. He's just so awesome.
