  • I think the fact that it's not a perfect performance adds to the beauty and humanity of it all. He's just a dude and he kicks ass.
  • @hospitalcleaner
    you guys talking shit about kurt vile need to realise that he wrote this song himself so he can do whatever he wants with it

    Had depression that I could I recognise most of my life, around thirty years now, with leap-year highs maybe, the things I can remember. Music's brought me a lot of joy, but in the worst of it I forgot to listen to it, or just couldn't because I couldn't pick anything I wanted to listen to, until I heard Kurt Vile. However bad it gets now it doesn't matter much, because I can listen to Kurt whenever, whereever. It always sounds good to me. It doesn't make me happy, or sad, or anything. I don't need to feel anything, or worry about anything, but I can hear the groove, and listen, and it makes me feel better.
  • This is music man. It’s not always perfect. It’s not always on tempo. A song isn’t going to sound exactly the same every time. That’s what makes it meaningful and Kurt Vile is such a pure musician

    The guitar in this song is genius, anyone who hates on the fact that he is playing this on an acoustic and singing to it at the same time with no effects, should learn the song and try it themselves.

    I can't seem to hear this song enough to get tired of it. feels like my autobiography.
  • He don't need to work on anything - life is full of stops and starts - that is awesome
  • I like the way this performance seems like he's all alone with the guitar in his bedroom. It's so natural...

  • @speedbird4576
    These is one difficult song to play alone can't imagine playing it and singing at the same time it must be tough , nice performance period.
  • He really grooves when he does acoustic songs. The pressure probably got to him and he hesitated a couple times but he's still an amazing guitar player.
  • @steveaustin773
    One of the best performances I have ever seen. Reminds me of some of the greatest singer song writers like Joni Mitchell, James Taylor etc.
  • Purée c'est beau à en chialer ! on dirait du Nick Drake ❤️ le succès de son vivant en plus
