I just discovered John Grant today, and I think I've listened to this song twenty times now. It's a perfect song.
GMF is better Imo.
If I listen to this song once, I listen to it three or four times
@@ozzyagerI have the same report with his song «Marz». It is absolutely wonderful. I look forward to getting acquainted with this tune now.
This particular version of this song is the best thing he’s ever done. Everyone else will tell you otherwise, but it’s just not true. GMF, Glacier, and ‘you don’t have to’ are all worthy contenders, but nothing will compare to this specific version of this song. Either way, know that his style and cynicism have been bitten off by many others, particularly Father John Misty.
@@pbelancsik I agree, there is nothing like just him and a piano live. The man is phenomenal. I will never forget seeing him, standing there feeling like I'd just been run over by a truck emotionally. But in a good way.
This has to be one of the greatest and most underrated songs of all time
The lyrics are outstanding. The full thing is outstanding.
This is one of the best FU songs I've heard in a long time. Full of wit, sarcasm, and insults. Yet very truthful and naked. He is a really a powerful singer and song writer.
So here i am in 2024 and I've only recently heard of John Grant through his duet with Elbow. A beautiful baritone voice and going to see him perform in 2 weeks in Glasgow.
Wow, what a performance........when he holds that note....spine-tingling!
The sheriff of my town told me to listen to this song. I love it! My sheriff has great taste in music.
No way!!! I can't see Grady Judd listening to John Grant 😂😂😂
Love this master piece. Found it while searching for Sinead O'connor lives. She sang it beautifully too. Hears them singing together, just brilliant. What a voice John and song. Let's hope Sinéad is singing it amongst the angels above us❤
I just saw him tonight. We are blessed to have such a genius in our world!
"you said my life was based upon a lie; I casually mention that I pissed in your coffee"...touche. What a genius this man is. LOVE LOVE LOVE him. His lyrics help me make sense of my own twisted mind! Long Live John Grant!!
He's not the songwriter of this one
@@Immaculate010 Yes he is.
@elmerjarpegard4222 yeah just checked it out. I thought it was written by Sinead O'connor but you are right
mind-blowing performance. what a voice on this guy...
one of the few artists that I have flown a distance to see live. love his songs, his lyrics and voice. thanks you john Grant
It was Sinead O'Connor that brought me to this man, who is like the second coming of Harry Nielsen.
thks Sinead O´connor u introduce 2 me this spechless play.no words no words, only tears from the moon....this is not a song, its a gun.
After watching 6 videos of this guy, his charm is slowly taking effect. Helps that he looks like my first lover, Big Tony.
Well I fell for him after two videos and I never meet Big Tony.... unfortunately!
Thats why I fell for my partner he looked like a big, viking bear that was made for cuddling and I love him dearly and I Introduced to John Grant who he loves.
God, he is so fucking gifted that words fail me. This song is perfect. All off "Queen Of Denmark" is perfect. I hope his career is long and wonderful.
"I casually mentioned that I pissed in your coffee".......what a great line! Powerful vocals, creative lyrics, great construction, a fabulous song through and through
Grant's combination of gorgeous, Carpenters-inspired melody and his quirky lyrics is magic.
Sinead's version blows this up! but I am glad he wrote this so she could kill it!!
Best lyrics EVER . Thank you kind sir ❤ You are needed in this world.
He's one of the greatest, i saw him live and at that moment didnt know who was him. I felt in love inmediatly, he fucking hypnotized me with his amazing voice.
Fantastic. Love his voice. And I'm old - 56. Learnt to know him by my daughter. And I'm so very glad. Like his songs so very much. He's on my playlist!
XX
You weren't old when you posted this nine years ago and, if your opinion still stands, you're still not old. X
brilliant song . thanks to Sinead O Connor for introducing me to john grant and his music .
Anybody else listening to this every day to sooth their soul?
A pleasure to tune the piano for him in Cardiff the day before Glastonbury this song great live being a piano tuner gets you to meet some real talent J.E.HARRIS 3rd generation piano tuner and lifelong Swans Fan.
Pure brilliance.
His brilliance is magnified by his suffering.
Like many great artists
The agony makes my eyes burst in to tears every time!
This guy's voice is amazing! Brilliant lyrics too!
Fresh from the Ally Pally performance of this tonight, John's talent Is just mind-blowing.. 👏💗
❤ Such a strong voice, such an amazing performance, such a great song, I can't seem to shake off, it cuts right to the bone, like a harpoon into my heart ...
Sad song great performance. Love J G!
"you'll still be sitting here ten years from now" - didn't realize this song was about me until today
Every song is a winner.
One of my favorite songs of all time! Genius.
Love this guy.
Beautiful. Made me cry. Thank you
Wonderful singer and songwriter
I love this song so much............hits me deeply
I have no comment. This man sings every word I have ever thought
Sung in a beautiful way and then the text...... surprise. So great.
An outstanding artist. This song and lyrics are a perfect example of his great works
I soooooooo love John Grant. He inspires us all with his songs. Have been having earworms, playing his songs almost everyday!
I wanted to change the world but I couldn't even change my underwear. Brilliant.
It is brilliant and some of have actually felt that way. Good singer.
+Dan Bollen
He has a great voice, and is far more than a *"Good singer"*.
Absolutely, I could have chosen a better adjectives.
Understandable
gorgeous gorgeous voice. and those lyrics, man... i don't know whether to laugh or cry...
quite simply...brilliant.....thank you!
His voice is amazing!
Heard John connect with Larry Flick on Out Q Radio yesterday morning.....leading me to discover this excellent rendition on this song. More of the best for you John! Sing on!
Masterpiece!
La voix de John Grant me file la chair de poule. J'adore cet artiste, du premier album des Czars à Pale Green Ghosts.
Listened to this for the first time sort of recently, quickly became one of my all time favorite songs.
I am in love with this song!
Stephen. I now Love John Grant and his music!!!!!!
Keep coming back.. magic 💝💝💝
I like listening to John Grant when I want to suffer and wallow in despair.
This song is somewhere in my top 5 of all time. Fantastic stuff. And I get to see him talk again tomorrow evening 😊😊😊
Brilliant, absolutely, brilliant song. X
Also the Czars. Really amazing! Squeeze my soul
Wow. How did I miss this guy?!!
"I casually mentioned that I pissed in your coffee". Also, I hear the line "why don't you bore the shit out of somebody else" often in my head as someone yammers on at me.
Luv it - so powerful!
Brilliant, stunning voice.
saw him live at roskilde festival a month ago. hey I was blown away. didnt know his music at all, but was spell bound with the rest of the audience. Thank you for an intimate and intense concert.
Fan-bloody-tastic!
Thanks, Matt Alber for reminding me about John. I love these songs. He reminds me of Harry Neilssen. I love this session.
Love this song 👏👏👏👏
Saw him supporting Elbow last night. Incredible.
he is such a lovely gentleman!
I practically love everything this awesome artist have done. But if someone point at me with a gun and force me to chose only one video with him I think this one will be my choice. Still give me goosebumps.
Me too. But I do like the song. "You're where dreams go to die" lol
Love this man.Did not know who he was until I heard him on radio 4 and I thought what a lovely sounding man he is and then I looked him up and thought Oh and I knew this song from Sinead but did not realise it was him.Great song.
fantastic texts... I love John Grant!!!
Sinead killed this song. She mastered it.
Love it, the Vocals, the Song - awesome
Anna- thank you!
Very ridiculous. He is so talented. I sure hope he comes back this way soon!
I almost shed a tear.
I only a few months ago found this magnificent singer. And I just love not only his musical style but I find his lyrics very interesting and often meaningful God John Granf
…I casually mentioned that I pissed in your coffee…. what a line :)
I love that line. Somebody was ticked off at me once and asked me why I pee'd in their cornflakes. Funny.
Beautiful.
Fits like a fucking glove. Beautiful, true, raw, moving, smashing.
Unbelievably talented. Bit late discovering him but better late then never
Flawless. I return to this often.
He’s so talented and handsome!
Stunning
If I could write music, i'd want to write music like this. what a voice this man has xxx
