‘Cause everybody’s got a part in the game. And everybody’s got a cross they can claim. And everybody’s got someone to blame. But we all must find our own way…yeah… ~Amos Lee
Totally fell in love with Amos Lee last night. He has great stage presence and a voice that could seduce the most uptight lady. Ha. THANKS FOR COMING TO STARKVILLE, MS, AMOS LEE!!
What a sweet, un-MTV-ie video, how rate to see life shown in all its span, through every divide. To say the least, this is NOT "posturing" music -- "posturing music" being the kind meant to say "I'm here, and you're THERE" as in "down there"! I think Amos Lee's 'Colors' and 'Black River' are exceptionally fine songs. Pray he never falls prey to celebrity -- and keeps his simplicity, breadth & wisdom. He has so much to give that this world so badly needs!
This is the kind of music that stands the test of time...Brilliance is sometimes best paved by a slow road to huge success. I hope AMOS never looses his brilliant edge to sell out to the industry. He is making it word of mouth big time. One of the best singer song writers out there now and in a long long time....KEEP IT UP
I saw him years ago on Dave Letterman or something when no one knew him and I loved him but couldnt find out anything about him. So good to see him come out of the wordwork! Love everything he does!
I work for at&t and found out about Amos Lee from a customer because she liked the song Sweet Pea from the commercial with the little girl. Came home, did some research and have a new favorite artist, soulful, inciteful and full of life!!!!
I heard this song for quite sometime now and luckily, I heard it today at work. I'm just happy that I found it song here on youtube. Love the song very much!!!
I loved his first CD but this track personally reminds me more of John Mayer than Dylan. He's talented but needs to stay clear of a pop sounds like this and stick to a soulful acoustic, that's his killer niche. Can't fault him for experimenting though. He's still on the rise without a doubt!
Amos is amazing. i've seen him twice when he was with Bob Dylan. I missed the chance to get an autograph because I didn't think he was going to be big. I'm an idiot. But seriously, Amos is the next Bob Dylan. He's even got Dylan's approva, for chrissake Dyaln grabbed him as his opening act years ago. He is the next great singer/songwriter.
I listen to alot of good music new and old and as far as "newer" singer-songwriters go, I haven't heard too many guys who are better. I like ryan adams and jackie greene alot but I wouldn't say they're ahead this guy in singing or songwriting. Still, i agree he isn't a dylan or jackson browne or sam cooke etc
umm yeah.. you need to listen to his first album (self titled). it's only 11 songs but they're all great.. and way better than this song. i'm not a fan of this song, personally.
The first great songwriter of the 21st century! Every song Amos lee sings is brilliant. in 20 years i will guarantee this man will be a legend along with bob dylan and james taylor. MUSIC DOESN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS FOLKS!
I just found out that the past 8months that i thought I was in a relationship,he came home 4/08/08 & he still hasn't called me,& im ur future wife.....the look that those people have on their face,lost & confused thats what my face looks like.Thank you, cause some times you shout inside instead of outloud!this is 1 of my NEW favorites,Guidance;-)
oh wow this song made me cry the first time I heard it. Such a great song. Seriously don't get why it wasn't a huge hit. People usually relate to songs that speak the truth. They should probably re-release it...Anyway great song!
Amos Lee is great if you don't yet have his two official records you are missing out. He briliantly mixes southern tunes with contemporary lirics and moods. I love his music, about time a true music came back!
Amos does to me what John Mayer does...renews my faith in good music and good song writing. Not EVERYTHING has to be manufactured and "image". Talent is sexy.
i agree with you on the john mayer link. he gives me the same feeling that mayer's music does. its BEAUTIFUL. i only just discovered amos because i was trying to find a recording of sweet pea - i love the clip played on the cell phone commercial lately. now i'm so glad i found him. sometimes it is rare to find singers like him, mayer, gavin degraw...its refreshing!
this is so awesome. i WISH i had a voice like his. i WISH i could play the guitar like him. but, i don't get vocal lessons, or guitar lessons, so im basically in a dead end. but, if i could get lessons from Amos, i would be screaming and jumping for joy.

I first heard it on the radio here in Minneapolis, it's now on my IPod and keeps getting repeated, I just love it it's great, all of Amos's music is great.
i just love him!
