[BensTunes101]

Amazing -3

[JoshRubinstein]

Steve Katz in the video responses is amazing!!!!

[rechnermusik]

I adore this song to an unbelievable degree. I'd just love for Mr. González to see my cover of it played on harp :)

[Skiller044]

I had † copied, and I accidently pasted it in the search box. Pressing enter opened the search results, and I clicked the song... I feel that the destiny wanted me to hear this masterpiece :)

Great.

[Punkrock1807]

love how bitter and sweet this song is. It can bring you down or pick you up. Unbelievable, this is like one of the best songs ever!

[highentropy2468]

plan b version is that little bit better

[spacesforlaces]

@highentropy2468 what the fuck did you just say...

[DreamingLiveLight]

[highentropy2468]

@DreamingLiveLight Yeah? You're a cunt beyond any other

i can't see how someone could possibly write something this gorgeous

[bungle02uk]

cast some light it'll be alright

[jadaforeverbaby12]

pandora brought me here

[nikkopayne]

51 people have different tastes, and I'm okay with that.

[BLACKDOGCAT1]

@nikkopayne U think they don't like it because of their taste? nooo quality sucks

[VasiljevicDeeanna]

@nikkopayne im not!

[philpeep]

@nikkopayne 51 people might be bothered by the really shit compression getting in the way of the excellent song.

[JohnHandleCock]

@nikkopayne .... probably the best comment that I have seen on youtube.... you have indirectly and 3 months later made my night a much better christmas....

[LiarFireDesire]

@nikkopayne Best comment ever.

[666jimmysmusicgirl]

This song has lasted me many a lonely drive thinking of my love... <3

[megaman00]

So wait, what came first, this track or the track for Zero 7?

[49JJH]

This song means so much to me that I can't even find the words to explain it!

[GR1MEYGABE]

alll the bickering aside - this is an amazing song :)

[DubstepMnster]

SO PEACEFUL, I FEEL LIKE I'M LISTENING TO JOHN LENNON

[abinaber]

this guy is the personifaction of talent and awesomeness

[Manu5Sitalkas]

The song for the soul explorers...We'll cast some light and you'll be alright...

[markyn4]

This song is not long enough! 

[Aaronth4815162342]

Not one single comment on this video is of importance, it is all pointless and meaningless. Enjoy the song for what it is...A song by a man.

[AliAlTalib]

Hang on...who's Justin Bieber?!

[TheLukeylala]

@AliAlTalib He's a Canadian pop star that alot of people hate. basically he has an annoying voice and like's to pretend he's 'it', really fake and over-produced music too. that's why people with a good taste in music like people such as Jose Gonzalez. :)

[simian455]

I love this song. I just...really...F'NING LOVE THIS SONG...

[Music4URsoulTeam]

ohhhhhhh yes....Tiesto brought me here !!!

EPIC SONG !!!!

[sethmarongg]

@Music4URsoulTeam not gonna lie, not a fan of tiesto's version much, it's really good and it's much better than what plan b did to brutalise this song, but it loses it's charm in tiestos one tbh

[TheEmachines22]

I feel bad that Treme brought me here. Wish I heard it when it first came out.

[TheWalker365]

@TheEmachines22 same :(

[obunkystaind]

@TheEmachines22 no big deal.

[goungoun2]

Woooo sky Atlantic!! :D

[medibobo911]

Thumbs up Rogenes93

[patocosta1234]

TREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FitzNugly]

Beautiful song

[vidde5]

This reminds me alot of my grandma

[cheeseburgachapstick]

found this by accident :D



[15thMD]

thats awesome. really good....really. :) *__*

[hotdoghogie]

His songs remind me of old distorted 35mm reels of film. Like good western tea. I feel high when I listen to Jose's music, everything is simplified.

[MRginge04]

@hotdoghogie Couldn't have put it better myself ! i feel stoned everytime i listen to him... chilled, at peace... happy.- Josez Ganzalez - legend !

[Whyyousuchadumbbutt]

Eww This is horrible. Sounds like a crappy "Karma police" copy

[MidgetGrant]

@Whyyousuchadumbbutt

How the fuck does this sound similar to Karma Police?

[Whyyousuchadumbbutt]

@MidgetGrant

They took the General sound, Distorted it, took out the drums, added whatever fucking instrument their using

[MrFlavum]

@Whyyousuchadumbbutt Yea this sounds nothing like karma police, that instrument would be a guitar...

[connorp1995]

looks like pat smear..... purely because of the pixelated video : P

[samnoli1]

This would be orgasmic in 1080p

[valiumandcherrywine]

I love José González an awful lot.

[sk8sheff]

like this if you keep expecting plan b to come in at any moment :D

[pauliebyrner23]

wat a tune class!!

[graypaw300]

ZERO 7!!!  Wow...that was a completely random find. I knew his voice sounded familiar.

[gr84oral]

@graypaw300 Wait, this guy was in Zero 7?! :O <3

[graypaw300]

@gr84oral Yeah!! Listen to their version of crosses, and look on their website. He's there :D

[JoshRubinstein]

Check out to STEVE KATZ in the video response, go to his channel (stevekatzmusic)

He's good! incredible guitar skills, voicce and beautiful songs! really recommend!

[OnlyTy91]

Maybe I'm wrong, but Jose Gonzalez kind of reminds me of pre-electric Bob Dylan. He just has that folk-y, bare naked instrumental sound that so many of those great, old timey artists had. He just lets the music do the talking.

[louiseduvee]

@OnlyTy91 Gregg Gordon's music is like that. It was endangered, but if you visit my channel, you can judge for yourself:)

[OnlyTy91]

@louiseduvee I'll do that!

[nottspete1]

jose gonzalez got me through some pretty dark times, he seems to attach his music to your soul and in fairness should of been a voice of a generation

[stormateen]

pure class. ps. totally with top comment, BIEBER SMOKES MAN BONE.

[jamstamanify]

plan b version is the shit

[leckaschmecka]

GOD WHY AM I ALWAYS CRYING WHEN I LISTEN TO THIS?!

[jonasrorschach]

Jose gonzales é foda !

[dodgeme2990]

goosbumps!



[marcusupa]

if this is his recording company, how bout a better quality video?? amazing tune though

[OhMaiGosh]

Beautiful man, beautiful music.

[CharlesSpeaks]

If you love Jose Gonzalez, I love you.

[anaeldu14]

je suis fan fan fan, j'adore

[SCHNECKE8P]

This will be playing at my funeral!

[ameliaenness]

OMG just got my tickets to see Jose @ Greenwich Summer Sessions on 26th July...there is a heat wave coming in London too!!!

[SlowHands27]

I can't stop listening to this song. Heard it in a Tiesto mix, then found this video... so sad and perfect.

[nilo469]

always these fucking bieber comments... just enjoy the song!

[Ilikeeemusic]

This song is just ... incredible!!! I could play it over and over again. Thank you jose for make such a great music!

[yourmother69hawhawha]

thumbs up if your because of Plan B..Plan B feat Jose Gonzalez - Cast A Light..brilliant song

[xEscapeAlcatraz]

this song speaks to me. 

[TdKMeTRCz]

this guy deserves better <3

[artisticluminiere]

Thumbs up for this artist specially as he attributes some of his touchtones to among others none other than wonderful Elliot Smith. Thank you for posting!

[FTAHindependent]

I hate soccer

[baskieb1]

his guitar riffs are kinda simple, yet so nice

[PeterConwayMgmt]

See the Jose Gonzalez with the Divine comedy @ Greenwich Summer Sessions on 26th July in the beautiful grounds of the Old Royal Naval College tickets selling fast greenwichsummersessions.co.uk.­..

[mrJANNERD]

wtf

[RAZZAONE1]

was waiting for plan b to drop then ;)

[Rogenes93]

Shitty Justin Bieber got 500 000 000 views and this video got 1,6 million, WTF is wrong with the world !!?!?

[shoksurf]

@Rogenes93 and this video has been up since '06 x))

[samiadossey47]

@Rogenes93 notice how this vid was posted in '06? When did bieber come out? yes, the world is a failure. I've been i love with this guy for YEARS now... He is truly amazing.

[KiltKaius]

@Rogenes93 Girlies don't care about real good music, they care about shitty haircuts

[BrownCreature]

@KiltKaius really man, just shut up

[secretmiggles]

@Rogenes93 The world is not fair. Just be thankful that you have found and can enjoy this music!

[HungarianFunnyGuy94]

@Rogenes93

He's not famous.... And? He's a gift, and only we earned that we can listen to him :) Cause we have ears :D

[joaotiago1987]

@Rogenes93 i dont know but its a fuck up world...

[OldirtyBastard50]

@joaotiago1987 word...

[OnlyTy91]

@Rogenes93 It could be that people have different tastes in music. Or it maybe that Justin Bieber spends hundreds of millions of dollars on advertising. Or that his songs are made specifically to be commercial enough to put on the radio.

Jose Gonzales is a modern musical genius, but your Justin Bieber comment makes me want to dive off a bridge. Honestly. Why can't people like you just praise the artist and listen to the music, instead of posting your stupid, trendy Bieber comments? God.

[KaKiJka95]

@Rogenes93 maybe they are watching bieber to see how shity he is.

[leirevil]

@Rogenes93 It's people like you that feed Justin Bieber. Why don't people merely speak highly of somebody without critisizing others like, for example, Justin Bieber? He has nothing to do with this video! At the end of the day, he is in all the comments.

[Tmeister111]

@leirevil Dude he is right to say that the world is wrong, money grabbers like him will one day return the human race to dark ages and i just hope im long gone before that day comes.

[MilitantBlackGuy1]

@leirevil His name should be treated like Voldemort's really.

[Rickogbhe]

@leirevil u jus mentioned the little pricks name as well u bellend

[theomen49]

@leirevil hes prob in all music vid comments because he is sooooooo gay.

[MORTALHLACHE]

@leirevil ...including yours... Ignore them, and just enjoy these masterpieces by Jose, Junip etc... Peace!

[kicktothebass]

@MORTALHLACHE no u ignore them

[Bboyd88]

@Rogenes93 prob cuz if it was possible to be worse than bieber.. it would be this

[Bobobble]

@Rogenes93 you hate justin bieber?

[OwenDon1]

@Rogenes93 cos people give him views by puttin abuse on the page

[numenthal]

@Rogenes93

it´s what they call "youth"... 

[MilitantBlackGuy1]

@Rogenes93 No publicity is bad publicity.

[LRHorny]

@Rogenes93 all that proves is more little girls use you tube than just general people stop hating!

[golddigger0325]

@Rogenes93 it's called marketing.

[loko95ftp]

aaaaaaaaaaa man i hate when people wall someone else an idiot and they get a thumbs up for it and i cant see why because am too lazy to go back to the comment on 4 months ago

[kelpiscool23]

@loko95ftp ugggh i know right? haah

[dcol92]

this guy makes u think twice about life

[944446]

favourite song by him, makes me cry and think of my ex bf

[TheAdamgnych]

the most under rated singer song writer of out time...

[doubleplatinumberg]

i really wish this song had not been about jesus coming to save me

[ippaihea]

@doubleplatinumberg I would be very surprised if Crosses is about Jesus as Jose is an Atheist.

"I actually believe in one god. The nylon-string guitar god."

[IFckdurmther]

I made a video to this brilliant song... check it out..

[ChesterTheGuitarist]

/watch?v=1n9mEhW3-GE

Some indie acoustic instrumental stuff. Hope you will like it!

I am waiting for your comments. Take care!

[federicomazzoni]

goddag!!!!



[federicomazzoni]

goddag!!!!

[louiseduvee]

He uses background noise and distortion as part of the song. No different from Neil Young using feedback, if you ask me.

[TangledTrees]

@louiseduvee thank you

[toodietoodieomg]

@louiseduvee this was also uploaded in 240p, go figure...

[louiseduvee]

@toodietoodieomg José González hit me with full hurricane force, at first listen, when he collaborated with Zero 7 on their album, 'The Garden'. He's among the greatest folk artists of our time, although few people seem to have picked up on his phenomenal talent until recently. He doesn't sound like anyone else to me: his way of altering the tuning of his guitar in the studio and in concert is quite different from, say, The Velvet Underground.

[zavinullava]

@louiseduvee But he's way cuter than Young.

[louiseduvee]

@zavinullava Oh, I don't know, it's a matter of taste.

[skitsot]

The noise in the music is supposed to be there, and gives his music a whole different feel. Low fi style. Get over the background noise, it is there for a reason

[miguelangelcovers]

I have my cover version. Hope you can watch it.

[narred]

my only complaint about jose's stuff is that IT SHOULD GO ON LONGER!!! veneer was so short!!! i was so disappointed when i was listening to that for the first time and then it ended and i was left wondering if there wa something wrong with the cd!!!

[iaqteuyt]

Could this be in a lower quality? I don't think so.

[justplayfm]

This video was just added to a music playlist at JustPlay.fm

[oscaroscarful]

this guy is so underated, check out his version of "love will tear us apart"

[stevekatzmusic]

love it!

[Serpent1991]

Gotenburg not only good for metal

[newyblood]

love it

[lollipop08xo]

why am I speechless everytime I hear his voice and feel the need to cry? it makes feel so emotional but cant figure out weather its happiness or sadness. :/ doesnt stop me listning though, its beautiful!

[joaon99]

It's funny when you start thinking someone is the most beautiful person in the world for what he/she does.

[elizabethpolice]

Amazing.

[b0niver]

Tiesto brought me here.

Admirable.

[eldafyre]

awsum track

[dixiedean10]

What a great voice he just moves you his voice and vocals great stuff viva la difference.

[justbeblonde48]

hi i know that you dont know me jose but i consider you my best friend

[MrPanic2011]

new remix of 'This Sweet Love' by PANIC up now !!! For fans of Jose Gonzalez !!

[i1killed2god3]

@MrPanic2011 Take your shit remix's elsewhere, obviously we like good music. 

[razzereful]

PLAN B!

[zentatonic]

My favorite Jose G. track. So dope. Very moving, and it stirs visions and emotions every time I hear it.

[heloni88]

If you ever get the chance then go and see him perform live, his performances are stunning and from then on when you watch the videos the background distortion tends to just be drowned out by the memory of how it was. Seeing him perform was one of the most beautiful experiences i have had.

[filththatisi]

Best Jose song by far!!

[unsimpludlag]

This song is dope.

foarte frumos <3 .

[Sascopa]

I cried like a baby when I first heard this.....I couldn't tell you why, but it really moved me, and still does :') beeeautiful

[ThePanMelon1]

I love his music, and especially this song. Jose has a great voice. I am writing a book and "Crosses" inspires me. It is a pity that his songs are so bad quality. Regards.
