  • Thank you so much to who uploaded this it's my favorite performance of theirs. I've been watching this vid for years now still brings a lot of joy.

  • love love love this song one of my favorite cake songs in the top three!! Also love the whistle at the end rock on Mccrea!!

  • thumbs up if you liked cake before this year!

  • ....Cake is an awesome band Ive seen them live in concert 5 times, and every time they release a new CD they just get better and better, Like Beck, They were so far ahead of their time....Its a shame more people dont know their music and can appreciate the great quality.....Even though its an old song Jolene has always been my favorite......Keep up the fantastic work Guys, You Rock !!

  • Same great music, fortunately with age came better stage presence.

  • Saw them play Jolene 4/22 and it sounds equally awesome! What a throwback!

  • What impresses me the most about this particular song and performance is the time in which it was created. These guys were clearly operating on a different frequency in 1994 considering the other music that was being created at that time.

  • @aaronhac Fortunately we were able to tune in to that frequency while we had them in the studio!

  • i never thought i would see cake looking young

  • wow, only 16k hits? this thing should have at least 200k. come on people stick it in your playlist's.  this is better than the album version.

  • wow, only 16k hits? this thing should have at least 200k. come on people stick it in your playlist's

  • Jeez, look at how young they all are xDDD John and Vince just look like kids here compared to now. John's voice is also a lot deeper.

  • So awesome, so under rated

  • the original sacramento native band

  • these guys rule so much

  • does anyone know what guitar john is playing?

  • Love the whistle he pulls out of his pocket!

  • It seems like john is trying a lot harder to "sing in this vid than any other time I've heard him. I guess this was pre-monotone.

  • o som deste cara é muito dez

    tanks cake

  • Another thing for die-hard CAKE fans to check out is the Sheep Go To Heaven music video. about 3 minutes in, a cartoon of john can be seen with his hat

  • Caught myself watchin this vid again. is it just me or does the drummer's hat have an oversized brim, especially around 3:20

  • it does look like an oversized brim.

  • ha, yeah i think you're right, also at 2:14

  • AWESOME. by far the oldest CAKE vid i've ever seen, (besides music videos) but it's also one of the best. Greg Brown was very bouncy while playing, wasn't he?

  • no vibraslap yet...?

  • Rome was not built in a day!

  • I love you for posting this, jolene? c'mon one of my favs, greetings from Venezuela, thank you!!!

  • Amazing upload. Thank you!

  • What a shame it is that more people don't know about CAKE.

  • this is some ol skool cake

  • Greatest American Band nobody knows about.

  • nice style - lots of bands should learn from cake... make some fucking unique music, we need it!!!!! not that MTV copy crap....

    peace all the time all the way

  • i LOVE CAKE! they are so awesome. i love john McCrea's voice/style... just love 'em! they always put me in a good mood :) thanks for posting

  • Jimi hendrix is the reason i started playing guitar. Cake is the reason i continued to play. long live Cake.

  • haha nice =-]

  • This was sexy to the maximum in concert.

  • Great stuff. They keep it real tight and tense up until the point where john yells, "Just the guitars!" and then it releases all the tension that was built up. It produces such a fantastic effect. gotta love it.

  • Yeah, just terrific. Prime Cake - they're still good now but Greg Brown and Victor Damiani are such great players, it's a real shame they left.

  • Uhmmm...is a 16 year old allowed to like Cake as much as I do? I'm more into faster ska music...but man, Cake's hypnotizing. Great Band!

  • It's alright man, I started loving Cake when I was 13, so you are fine. :)

  • Oh, I love this! John and Vince look so young!

  • Awesome video!

  • CAKE is a truly great band due to the fact that after 15 years of playing since they started out and with the changing of the band members that the quality of the music they put out is still the best out there

  • Ive only seen Cake once, back in like 1994 and they played this song it was was AWESOME! been hooked ever since

  • Wow... look at the babyfaces on John & Vince. Compare them with some of the more recent Cake vids to see the passage of time. It seems like yesterday for us "old farts" who remember when they were still playing tiny clubs in Sactown like Old Ironsides and the Press Club.

  • cake....so good. that whistle is so perfect! i pray at the alter of John McRae!

  • Cake MMMM!!!

  • Awesome jam on this song! It's even better than the album version. Thank you very much for uploading.

  • Your welcome. It was a thrill hearing them cut loose that day!

  • Hell Yeah its so gooooood.

  • I was mortified when I saw that set. Who was your designer, Fred Sanford? The king of the half-dissove still reigns supreme! Let's have more of this, but make sure to keep the mics away from the bell of those horns!

  • when the mic's away the cats will play. long live the king . . .

  • yes probably a school production set. dont act like yours were any better.

  • Need more from Cake on youtube.
