James Mercer - Harvest (Neil Young cover)

[TheCapitalLetter]

I miss flake music and the shins we need a new broken bells cd pronto

[flakemusic86]

@TheCapitalLetter We need the new Shins CD, Broken Bells does neither replace the Shins, nor make up for the lack of a new Shins album imho.

[kpotassium]

@flakemusic86 Really? I much preferred broken bells.

[louisaruth]

cool. definitely made my day hearing this.

[Jerkoffski08]

Neil you are rock n roll country style...the notes fill my head with and I begin to dream within' this living dream

[stealth909]

Simply brilliant.

[mackles]

Some performances need to be treated like an opera or sermon, no screaming, clapping, or yelling in the middle of the fuckin song. God damn what a good cover

[Maelmusic]

Great voice!

[gitarrefish08]

very good

[MrHthymel]

Kevin Spacey for sure.  Love him in Broken Bells.

[HeadSchaadt913]

@MrHthymel I was trying to figure out who he reminded me of... Kevin Spacey haha... i was kinda thinking Joseph Gordon Levett too. 

[Etheridge007]

Who else thinks he looks like Kevin Spacey?

[jcupsmells1]

@Etheridge007 more like kevin spacey looks like james mercer

[EccentricFrog]

@Etheridge007 ah! i thought i was the only one! thank you

[metaZen]

@Etheridge007 I can see it..lol..

[PoprocksCk]

Good cover, but not having the Bm chord really takes away from the song IMO.

[JDesepoli]

@PoprocksCk The Bm is there. What he changes is the E major to a G major.

[Joshhomme1]

I'm willing to bet James Mercer could make Neil Young smile - which is no easy task!!

[blanqui012]

Te gek, ik houd van james Mercers stem.

[heartabandoned33]

good, but definetly not neil young

[joefactor]

@heartabandoned33 ...and thank goodness for that! Neil Young's voice is only equal to that of a cat being strangled.

[vonfunkenmeister23]

just buy the neil version, easily as good or better. but this is great too. two great song writers

[bantufisu]

I love Neil Young and I have to admit that Mercer's cover is better than the original.

[AltroLog]

I think this is very good.

[rockcouture31]

Does anyone know where I can buy a copy of this song? Or if thats even possible?

[w0smith]

No, it isn't for sale in any form... but there is a bootleg of the whole set going around out there. It was "Live at Moonshine Festival".

[DGconnection]

One of the greatest covers i've ever heard. Absolutely amazing person.

[anie887]

Omg... I could burst by listening to his voice D=

I burst into tears, laughter

And a bunch of feelings I can not control lol

I love james mercer

Unexplainable beauty :D

[azweiz]

Holy crap!! this is an amazing cover.

[DisfiguredCowboy]

He does a great job with this. Pretty rad that the fans all seemed to know what it was as soon as he started playing too...

[w0smith]

I'm so impressed with this guy as a musician. I'd love to hear him put out some solo albums and experiment with different styles some day.

[jcupsmells]

agreed... definantly has what it takes to become a solo artist. some ways i like him by himself better. but love the shins

[perceptionpolice]

he is coming out with an album called broken bells with dangermouse next month

[w0smith]

I know. I've heard it, and it's good.... I definitely recommend buying it / preordering, but it can be found already in the usual places

[uno1poono]

legendary

[nashrules13]

James Mercer is really incredible. I just love his voice. Great cover.

[Fuzzyrush27]

this is amazing :)

[jcupsmells]

james mercer is excellent. the shins as well...

[Director705]

Don't forget Flake Music though.

[kronikflowz]

@jcupsmells as well as brokenbells

[stuartdwade]

great cover!!!

[SonofMrPeanut]

I remember this clip. I got a hold of this when eBay used to sell bootlegs. Fell in love with this cover when I first heard it.

[Phobophobia7]

Thank You for uploading this!

[ProfessionalChiller]

Great Job!

[ferrispoint]

I THINK NEIL YOUNG WOULD BE VERY PROUD!
