To be honest it sounds like you might listen to lots of fake music/artists that use technology rather than talent or skill. I can not think of a single artist I would rather not hear live but I prefer independent artists with deep lyrics and grace.
When I'm overwhelmed by all the bad things happening across the world right now, jack johnson brings me back down. I don't know what it is, but there is something in his songs that keeps you at distance from those bad things without becoming ignorant.. it's very important to me to keep myself informed about it, but try to stay cool, still attempting to make the world a better place, in everyone's own conditions and capability. Thank you jack johnson, for showing me that the world can be beautiful, even though it sometimes shows itself from its ugly side. This man has got it all!
Freakin brilliant. The best thing is that i can listen to dissection while my girlfriend is sitting next to me and she is not giving me a hard time about the kind of music i am listening to.😂
says so much. even between the lines the sign is pregnant with meaning. meaningful commentary and creative lyrics. jack is masterful with music and bringing issues alive..

It's funny that this is still the top comment because even now, two years later nothing seems to have changed...at least for the better. Thinking about this it isn't really funny, just depressing.
je peut rien dire k ca fait mainteant des jours et des jours k j'ecoute l'album et j'on est pas assez. putai pr cett société et cette culture humain...
@JKaikaneL You should stop thinking of it that way, no offence. Having an open mind and not jumping to conclusions will make you much happier. Dislikes can be good because that sort of symbolizes the fact that we can choose to listen to whatever we like. Freedom's an amazing thing. We are all together, whether it's Lil Wayne fans or Jack Johnson fans. We're all together as one thing: humanity. :)
this song makes me sad, knowing our race is on the verge of destroying itself, our civilization has had a good run but now its running down into nothing and the world will unfortunately be better off for it, I hope we can get our shit together and work on things that aren't retroactive to the survival of our, warmongering, self destructive species.
Trouble travels fast when you're specially designed For crash testin' or wearin' wool sunglasses in the afternoon Come on and tell us what you're tryin' to prove 'Cause it's a battle when you dabble in war You store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together Whether the storm drain running rampant just stamp it And send it to somebody who's pretending to care Just cash in your blanks for little toy tanks Learn how to use them and abuse them and choose them Over conversations, relationships are overrated "I hated everyone", said the Sun And so I will cook all your books You're too good looking and mistooken You could watch it instead From the comfort of your burnin' beds Or you can sleep through the static But who needs sleep when we've got love? Who needs keys when we've got clubs? Who needs "please" when we've got guns? Who needs peace when we've gone above? But beyond where we should've gone We went beyond where we should've gone Stuck between channels, my thoughts all quit I thought about them too much, allowed them to touch The feelings rained down on the plains all dried and cracked Waiting for things that never came Shock and awful thing to make somebody think That they have to choose pushing for peace supporting the troops And either you're weak or you'll use brut force-feed The truth is we say not as we do We say, "Anytime, anywhere" Just show your teeth and strike the fear of God Wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a Dodge pick-up The beat and stop hogging the feast That's no way to treat an enemy Well, mighty mighty appetite, we just eat 'em up and keep on driving Freedom can be freezing, take a picture from the pretty side Mind your manners, wave your banners What a wonderful world that this angle can see But who needs to see what we've done? Who needs "please" when we've got guns? Who needs keys when we've got clubs? Who needs peace when we've gone above? But beyond where we should have gone Beyond where we should have gone We went beyond where we should have gone We went beyond where we should have gone
One of the rare cases where a live song is actually the better version. I love this so much.
Crazy thing is this is one of the rare artists where most of the live songs are better than the album version.

I love him and his music and how his concerts are. He's amazing
I don't know what it is but he makes such a simple subtle solo sound fucking amazing
His songs are far from simple! Try to sing one of his songs and you'll see how complex they are!!!
You are brilliant Jack Johnson. One of the many things I love about you❤

I just love the entire album... damn you can just feel the solo/outro at 4:00
His use of prose is so awesome here.
This gives me crazy goosebumps everytime i watch it

Pena esse dvd não estar no Spotify 😏

Trouble travels fast

There's nobody better than Jack...
Espetacular como sempre! Jackkkk
I don't speak your language but I'm sure I agree lol
I'm telling you that Jack is a spectacular person.
They may not understand, but they are happy.
Great great great Jack

The music of life
You are wise beyond your 14 years my young friend!
Imagine!
I have feeling you and George Carlin would get along quite well. He's a great guy.
killer outro...awesome
4:00 Omg so fucking amazing. only if he had his big bushy head at that time the wind would just be blowing threw his hair omg ahaha
je peut rien dire k ca fait mainteant des jours et des jours k j'ecoute l'album et j'on est pas assez.
putai pr cett société et cette culture humain...

Does Anyone know what pedals or effects he uses during the solo of this song?
somebody knows what pedal jack uses?
anyone else think its sad that kid cudi is in the suggestion bar??
Wouldn't*
1 person went beyond she should've gone

:D
Wouldn't count on humans working together ha.
That's what is most sad about this. Jack dreams of peace but I think even he knows we will probably never see it.
Trouble travels fast when you're specially designed
For crash testin' or wearin' wool sunglasses in the afternoon
Come on and tell us what you're tryin' to prove
'Cause it's a battle when you dabble in war
You store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together
Whether the storm drain running rampant just stamp it
And send it to somebody who's pretending to care
Just cash in your blanks for little toy tanks
Learn how to use them and abuse them and choose them
Over conversations, relationships are overrated
"I hated everyone", said the Sun
And so I will cook all your books
You're too good looking and mistooken
You could watch it instead
From the comfort of your burnin' beds
Or you can sleep through the static
But who needs sleep when we've got love?
Who needs keys when we've got clubs?
Who needs "please" when we've got guns?
Who needs peace when we've gone above?
But beyond where we should've gone
We went beyond where we should've gone
Stuck between channels, my thoughts all quit
I thought about them too much, allowed them to touch
The feelings rained down on the plains all dried and cracked
Waiting for things that never came
Shock and awful thing to make somebody think
That they have to choose pushing for peace supporting the troops
And either you're weak or you'll use brut force-feed
The truth is we say not as we do
We say, "Anytime, anywhere"
Just show your teeth and strike the fear of God
Wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a Dodge pick-up
The beat and stop hogging the feast
That's no way to treat an enemy
Well, mighty mighty appetite, we just eat 'em up and keep on driving
Freedom can be freezing, take a picture from the pretty side
Mind your manners, wave your banners
What a wonderful world that this angle can see
But who needs to see what we've done?
Who needs "please" when we've got guns?
Who needs keys when we've got clubs?
Who needs peace when we've gone above?
But beyond where we should have gone
Beyond where we should have gone
We went beyond where we should have gone
We went beyond where we should have gone
