Four years later, here we are. I have the ONLY live video of the only time this song was ever performed, in Chicago of course! I hope you all enjoy it, this was (as stated in the description) my first show, at age 17. I cannot describe what a moment and turning point it was for my life. Cheers!
in a recent interview, Johnny had said he only played this song once live, and in front of the girl he wrote it about...guessing its this video. what a video
It doesn't matter what your story is. This song is so powerful. You can feel the emotions. They are so intense. We can all relate to falling in love. Giving our all. Thank you HS.
I don't even want to know how much time I've spent watching this video and the one of Lydia at the Grammys 😂. Probably way too much. Two of my favorite live performances from this amazing band 🤘🤘.
His voice cracking after the guy is like, "just marry her already"? Jeeze. Anybody else get choked up at some of their songs, just wishing those two could work shit out? This one and Bloodfeather really get me. I get it-- and I kinda wish I didn't. Fuck.
I came here to say basically the same thing. Even though HS hasn't been around for a long time their shit hits different. Like Johnny is an old soul or something.
Highly Suspect is in town in like two days, but I can’t go because of work. So, I came to this side of UA-cam. Glad I did. This is my favorite song from them.
I'm happy to hear! This video had a copyright strike for the better part of a year, but I still have the only video of the only performance of this song. I'm glad I can spread it, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
So not just you. I've been crushing on this song for a week, and it sort of felt like a sad song, but then I see this video and realize how sweet of a song it is, and how positive. The way Johnny keeps looking to her while he's singing, it is effing beautiful
@@SylviaChao93070 me too! He just bares his soul & you can't help but feel it. I am so glad I found this band. I'm a fucking old lady (59) & I can relate to almost every damn song.
Why am I fucking up so bad? What am I even doing? When am I ever gonna learn? What it is she already knows Baby, I met you in downtown Chicago But I, I had to drive away the very next day So I, flew your pretty ass to New York City Then I, I left you in L.A Was it love or my fantasy? Was it real or just a dream? Remember one night getting too fucked up in the Hamptons at Tom's I fell off his bike, and girl, you laughed at me so hard Spent a whole week getting drunk on the dunes of Cape Cod, that's when you met my father Was it love or my fantasy? Was it real or just a dream? Was it love or my fantasy? Cause sometimes you get so angry And I take it personal And I should've known That you were only hurting Cause life can be uncertain When you're only 19 years old So it's another late night out here in California And I'm, I'm burying my pain into somebody else And now you're back at home living with your mama Got my first record sitting on your shelf Was it love or my fantasy? Was it real or just a dream? Was it love or my fantasy? Was it real? Well baby I met you in downtown Chicago But I, had to drive away the next day So I, flew your pretty ass to New York City Then I, I left you in L.A (I'm taking you back, & I'm never letting you get away)
I think there's still hope for them! He seemed to really love her...and if it was true, soul crushing, all consuming passionate love, then he can hook up with every chick in the world, but the memory of Madison & that love, will always be there!!
Im assuming he broke up with Madison because he just publicly broke up with a girl named Jade on twitter like 5 months ago. Hope he finds the right one someday.
I honestly don’t know who broke up with who but, if she broke up with him she’s so foolish. Unless he’s some big cheater or something I can’t see doing that to him. This is honestly the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen. Him playing this for her and singing it to her in front of all these people. Telling her before he starts playing that she’s the love of his life. Wow! Just wow! Damn, it’s really deep.
They started dating in 2015. He was 29. She was 19. In the song 16 he was 16 years old when it all went down. So Madison was 6. So that would be a no, it's not about her.
Babe thats the whole point to be able to sing along with your favorite songs and artist but when there screaming and you can't hear the artist thsts a different story because there not singing along anymore there trying to over power them which is annoying af
I thought that too, but I talked to him outside of their concert in Houston recently and he assured me they're two different people (both true stories though).
He refused to do it Omaha years ago after not performing together for quite some time. We were the first city on the tour. He was gracious enough to get his “ i’m a woke liberal asshole and everything wrong in the world is because of the white man speech. Worst live show I’ve seen and unfortunately it was also the first time seeing them live. Love the albums but the rest is trash.

Is this Jonny?
Nvm I see now, thanks
This was amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this!!! I am so grateful to have been able to see this!!
in a recent interview, Johnny had said he only played this song once live, and in front of the girl he wrote it about...guessing its this video. what a video
I cannot express enough how underrated his talent is.
Fucking epic. Dudes a rockstar. I don't understand why they're not bigger than they are. Great band.
It doesn't matter what your story is. This song is so powerful. You can feel the emotions. They are so intense. We can all relate to falling in love. Giving our all. Thank you HS.
I get goosebumps every time this version plays. I can feel Johnny's emotion in every key and it's glorious
One of the best songs. Underrated
What a beautiful song. Johnny is so talented.
I get chills every time watching this video.... the way he looks at her and sings..... love it!!!!!! so beautiful
I don't even want to know how much time I've spent watching this video and the one of Lydia at the Grammys 😂. Probably way too much. Two of my favorite live performances from this amazing band 🤘🤘.
This makes me miss live music so much. To know this moment ever only happened once, sounded just like this once. The emotion is real.
just fucking marry herrrr
Hello Chicago. Thank you for the gift real. Ty
It's the unrefinement (if thas a word) in his voice that makes this song so much better!
I'm the guy front row in the black MCID hat! Best show I've been too! 3rd time seeing them and got to touch his guitar half the concert!
Doesn't sound like he is ready to play the song live yet!
He can sing,thank god!I thought it was a joke !
Stop touching guitars
Tra Gik lmao
Couple years later I know, but do you still have the video or were you just snapping pics? Everybody wants to see her reaction...
You have a heart of gold. Johnny
Ridiculously talented. Can't wait to see what they deliver next.
Well, it’s not truly as amazing as this but it’s still amazing in their own way as a progressing band. I dig the new album!
His voice cracking after the guy is like, "just marry her already"? Jeeze. Anybody else get choked up at some of their songs, just wishing those two could work shit out? This one and Bloodfeather really get me.
I get it-- and I kinda wish I didn't. Fuck.
I came here to say basically the same thing. Even though HS hasn't been around for a long time their shit hits different. Like Johnny is an old soul or something.
@@toebee97 it really is something. He has a way about him that creates soul connection. It's a beautiful thing.
Highly Suspect is in town in like two days, but I can’t go because of work. So, I came to this side of UA-cam. Glad I did. This is my favorite song from them.
I'm so glad I finally found this video. When I first heard it I was blew away by that piano solo! Freaking love it!
I'm happy to hear! This video had a copyright strike for the better part of a year, but I still have the only video of the only performance of this song. I'm glad I can spread it, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
@@yaris5150 O my Gosh. Thats crazy man..i was wondering why i could never find it lol..its a freaking jewl 🎶 love it..made my night.
This is such an amazing song....
Love seeing you happy!!!
This is my favourite song of theirs. Thank you!
no problem! if you read that comment I left - still the ONLY time it has ever been performed live. In Chicago, of course!
Amazing!!!!
who are the 5 assholes who disliked this video. WHO THE FUCK COULD NOT LOVE THIS VIDEO?!?
anyone else start tearing up over this? just me? okay...
Ubiquitous Love i tear up every time i hear Johnny sing.
So not just you. I've been crushing on this song for a week, and it sort of felt like a sad song, but then I see this video and realize how sweet of a song it is, and how positive. The way Johnny keeps looking to her while he's singing, it is effing beautiful
It definitely has the same effect on me . You're not alone in that reaction.
@@SylviaChao93070 me too! He just bares his soul & you can't help but feel it. I am so glad I found this band. I'm a fucking old lady (59) & I can relate to almost every damn song.
They played in a little club in my city not too long ago. It was sadly sold out and I hope they play here again sometime
Beautiful
Love this song
unbelievable 🔊🎤
Thank you for that!
wow i liked this song when i heard it, but this just made me like it so much more.
Great young band and cool video.
his range is unique its kinda soulful/grunge
Anyone else want to see her face as he sings to her? Someone had to get that on video.
God damnit I love love love Chicago
❤
My heart is exploding
John, you deserve to be loved....I hope you fimd a person who deserves you❤
4:40 “just f****** marry her” 🤣😂
Anybody know if they’re still together? This is one of my favorite videos ever, I love this song but I’m just curious :)
2 WORDS, amen brother
Love💖💖💖
everyone shut up and put your phones down im trying to hear this
3:50 “hey Daniel”
I could have sworn he said GOD DAMN HAHAHAH
I'm crying
Not that it's any of my business but...
JOHNNY FUCKIN WIFE HER ALREADY!
King Miguel Sad he's with another chick now.
I feel all warm and fuzzy now.
Ugh, I love them so much. Johnny and Madison need to get married now.
Wooooooahhhhhhh
Wish we could see her reaction
OH MY FUCKING GOD. OMFG!!!!
ALL THE JELLY UP IN HERE.
amen brother
❤❤❤
Show cases his voice
Mah heart
This is h
Gold
most pretty song ever :)
that ending is epic
Why am I fucking up so bad?
What am I even doing?
When am I ever gonna learn?
What it is she already knows
Baby, I met you in downtown Chicago
But I, I had to drive away the very next day
So I, flew your pretty ass to New York City
Then I, I left you in L.A
Was it love or my fantasy?
Was it real or just a dream?
Remember one night getting too fucked up in the Hamptons at Tom's
I fell off his bike, and girl, you laughed at me so hard
Spent a whole week getting drunk on the dunes of Cape Cod, that's when you met my father
Was it love or my fantasy?
Was it real or just a dream?
Was it love or my fantasy?
Cause sometimes you get so angry
And I take it personal
And I should've known
That you were only hurting
Cause life can be uncertain
When you're only 19 years old
So it's another late night out here in California
And I'm, I'm burying my pain into somebody else
And now you're back at home living with your mama
Got my first record sitting on your shelf
Was it love or my fantasy?
Was it real or just a dream?
Was it love or my fantasy?
Was it real?
Well baby I met you in downtown Chicago
But I, had to drive away the next day
So I, flew your pretty ass to New York City
Then I, I left you in L.A
(I'm taking you back, & I'm never letting you get away)
That shirt is sick
So fucking sick!!!
bad ass...
Don't go Axl Rose on us this early
Like that's a bad thing? Please do!
lol
The most romantic
what was that song in the beginnning?
I like Madison better than the chick who he is dating now. Ruby Rose Carr.
I think there's still hope for them! He seemed to really love her...and if it was true, soul crushing, all consuming passionate love, then he can hook up with every chick in the world, but the memory of Madison & that love, will always be there!!
@yaris5150 thanks for sharing ❤💛💚💙💜
Arris 5150 is the story of my life😢😊🎉😂😊😊😊😊😊
@@jrpitman yes!!!!!!👍🔥
Im assuming he broke up with Madison because he just publicly broke up with a girl named Jade on twitter like 5 months ago.
Hope he finds the right one someday.
He broke up with someone via a fucking tweet? Are you shitting me? No, wait... I shouldn't be shocked over that the way he's been acting.
I'm not crying, you're fucking crying
I've heard they broke up a month ago, so ... Too much "show" and too less love, as I think...
D M reason for the song
I honestly don’t know who broke up with who but, if she broke up with him she’s so foolish. Unless he’s some big cheater or something I can’t see doing that to him. This is honestly the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen. Him playing this for her and singing it to her in front of all these people. Telling her before he starts playing that she’s the love of his life. Wow! Just wow! Damn, it’s really deep.
Lol 😆 he did all this for her and they aren’t even together anymore! 🙃😅
That's usually how it goes. Join my club of pain.
u know that drummer from blink 182? n aaron carter?...yall gone party?
Is she the one the song 16 is about?
I'm wondering that too! Someone who knows give us the answer....
They started dating in 2015. He was 29. She was 19. In the song 16 he was 16 years old when it all went down. So Madison was 6. So that would be a no, it's not about her.
Only 40k views. People are in the dark. This is the song of 2017
Duuude
What if 16 is written about the same girl
I wonder how jealous all the women got
bob seger
is Madison really his girl ?
Yes
***** very cool to do that for her in her home town
None of my business, but; d'oh....
I hate going to concerts honestly cause everyone sings along when you literally pay to listen to someone sing
Babe thats the whole point to be able to sing along with your favorite songs and artist but when there screaming and you can't hear the artist thsts a different story because there not singing along anymore there trying to over power them which is annoying af
Did they break up !!??
Listen to 16
jamesarthur.
Is it dusty in here or is it just me?
I feel like you can’t sing this song to anyone unless IT’S THE GIRL!?
Fuck this version is betyer
I hate to say it... But I think this girl influenced the writing of 16
I thought that too, but I talked to him outside of their concert in Houston recently and he assured me they're two different people (both true stories though).
F
and im a dude
ditch her...shes gonna wreck your career
