Something in the water in the Shoals!!! To all of the knobs talking about her appearance, go watch the Pussycat Dolls... If you dig talent and substance over flash and appearances, stay with the Shakes!!! Hail, Hail Rock and Roll!!!
Whiny little 14 year olds and grumpy 60 year olds talk about the music nowadays never being as good as it was in the good old days. What I say is STFU and get real, it's Alabama Shakes and loads of other artists proving we still got what it takes. If you're too narrow minded to realise that, you're a moron.
@mooonstoned I was thinking more like somewhere between Janis and Joe Cocker haha but either way.. I wasn't so sure after the first 30 seconds but by the end of it I'm blown away. This chick killlls it!
That Diamond Commercial led me here lol, and 11 people have never made kids to oldies haha go listen to lil wayne or something, this hear is old skool
She's like a reincarnated Janis Joplan, with a bit more soul even, though Janis surely had SOUL. This is amazing music & vocal talent galore. I can't get enough. No idea why they are no longer selling their 1st album, even as a digital download, anyone know? This is one of my faves from it, although all their songs are just as damned good as this one. Awesome is an understatement.
This is the first time in a long time i've heard anybody sing with so much passion, it doesn't matter what kind of music you like you have to appreciate some one who puts so much heart and soul into their music
I've been blown away by the Alabama Shakes since they were on Conan. Nice to see talent is still out there and Soul is alive. Let's hope they can stay true to who they are and not be ruined by the awful music industry.
so glad that music still exists! please don't stop doing what you do! one day the world will run out of music and they'll have to dig these out of the archives and revive it!
This... this righ'chya! THIS IS SOUL, ladies and gentlemen... Ain't never seen nothin' like that before, and I pray to God Almighty that this woman... this angel... I pray that she is seen, heard, and loved by all - especially those of us who need this kinda music just to make it one more day in this all-too-cruel world... Sing on, Sister!!!
These folks better get in the XRoads soon or they won"t fit. Huntspatch needs a shot of this BAAAAADDD! TennVal soul is always the best. Love the headroom on the instruments and your VOICE WOMAN! The world awaits.
@keeyha24 I knew form the beginning that I loved this song/ their style of music. But I didn't realize until you mentioned it, how much her voice reminds me of Janis Joplin's. Funny huh? cus now that I think about it, it's such an easy connection to make. Either way, I love it :)
Heard her on the radio today and came home and pulled her up on youtube.....She is awesome. Wish she would come to St Louis. I would def go............Hear some Janis Joplin in there........
@TinyTechnoChickens Makes me proud to be from Alabama too and I'm from North Carolina.this group sounds like a late sixties or early seventies R+B group.I hope they find a niche in this day and age of really crappy music.
@brettetre I know she isn't TRYING to sound like Janis Joplin, but she really does alot. That's all I thought when I first heard this song, and she does alot of the screaming/yelling thing that Joplin used to do. Half of this song is her yelling some incoherent-ness. My previous comment was probably a little harsh. My mind tells me to not like this music cuz she sounds so much like Joplin, and it's kinda biting her style IMO, but my heart loves this music. It's a conflict going on with me.
Amazing performance and vocal delivery, but I can't help but notice that from about 4 minutes onwards, this song sounds just like Oh Sweet Nuthin' by the Velvet Underground. Not that I'm complaining.
Song sounds like the drunk Joe Cocker Woodstock version of "With a Little Help From My Friends". I personally think that was amazing so you already know I love this
@Chindian1234 She sounds almost exactly like Janis Joplin, it annoys me. Most of this song is just her yelling into the mic trying to sound like Joplin.
@therealmr905 dude thing is i saw this on MTV. fuckin weird right?, but they actually play music at ungodly hours that only insomniacs like me watch. i hate MTV but at least they introduced me to this song and this band
Wow.... I love it. Just finished hearing the band on TV! I checked for them on youtube and hear they are. I hope you guys can make it to Maryland, would love to see you guys. Keep it up and congrats
wow!
