Eyedea & Abilities - Burn Fetish (Live)

[sweetdeeguitz]

Michael Larsen was born to stand in front of us. He was one of the blessed few, whose thoughts transcended the barrier between what we think we know; and the eternal possibilities that surround each step we take. He shared a sacred bond with Saturn, as do others who share these traits. Humility is not given a thought because pride means something so different to them. To him. I'd like to think as I write these words, and comprehend his actions;I too am afflicted with this terrible responsibility

[bah808]

No one will ever top this man.

[qwertyuiopdan1]

Whats with the jolly mother fucker with the beard and long hair in the background not giving a fuck.

[al458]

abilities fingersfucks the shit out of those turntables!!!



[GuitarLegend08]

Where can I see the rest of this performance?

[MRcrashaddict]

He ruined rap for me....nobody comes anywhere near the depth and relatability of this one of a kind

[Cgreene159]

@MRcrashaddict Agreed. No matter how much Sage Francis, Slug, or Astronautalis I listen to, nothing compares to the emotional depth of Eyedea's music.

[deadpeasantmoon]

Rather drown than ask for help?

i wish he'd done the latter

[bitchwholikesdabass]

RIP <3

[rudegirl241]

it really makes me so sad when i ilsten to eyedea. He was a truely talent human being. Feels like a part of me dies everytime i listen to him. or anythig he's featuring in. even stuff he's featuring in he kills his verse he's usually the best one in the song, for me atleast.

sadly, i never had a chance to see him in concert or ever meet him, but yet he feels like hes my best friend. i'm glad I was able to go to the memorial in oct in 2011. R.EYE.P

EYEDEAS NEVER DIE

[REVAMPtheindustry]

0:00 - the end.. pure eyedeaness.. all heart. this will always remain as one of my favourite live performances

[twiztidcaroseul]

One Of the greatest rappers to ever live. I wish I had been at this show!

[SeeDalton]

They are the greatest thing to happen to hip-hop. Lyrically and musically they changed it. I'm so pissed I'll never get to see them :(

[Deffiant1]

Perfect numb 13 billion year in the making

[alxtourv]

shit, this is soooo good.

[OneTwentyMN]

Find my comfort, inside blame

Shove my pride back, down my face

My worst habit's waking up at least once a day

Balance barefoot on a needle heaven's just a jump away

[Taima]

He was good, but died of an overdose like so many other idiotic musicians. An intelligent asshole I suppose.

[MattBomkamp]

@Taima How about you try not talking about shit you know nothing about? Yes, drugs were involved. No, he didn't OD. Educate yourself and stop spreading that stupid rumor. Eyedea was a great musician and an even better person.

[ElliottRoche]

@MattBomkamp i see what you're trying to say & i totally agree, but it was from an overdose... apperently it was a prescriptioned drug though...

[DirtReynoldsLip]

A bright EYEDEA never dies! I can't believe it has been a year. RIP Mike Larsen

[Ston3d42O]

[Adamclayton5]

"eyes wide shut, I promise not to fall awake"

Favorite line from any song ever.

[luiscarlostorres22]

[sampaytoniscool]

empathy is the poor mans cocaine, love is just a chemical by any other name, i like the way your pheromones make me sleepy, this far away i still smell you inside me.

this chorus is absolutely fucking amazing. this is the best it gets.

[OM3N1R]

Is it just me or is it the best Chorus ever conceived?

[XavieHarris]

God, I wish I could hage got a way to see I live of this. R.I.P

[10qaws]

the guy chilling with the beard is the cultivation of the mood why the musician dies just writing . ide know im a writer myself trying to describe something look at him persistant so real and you cant knock him for it just sitting there 

[TheEpiphanys]

Balance barefoot on a needle, heavens just a jump away... Man. Local music at its best... .Ammmmazing <333333

[3HaileyASmith]

[philbrando]

It's all heart!!! I only yearn to hone in on my own skills. "I eat my words cause they taste like dirt...."

R.I.P.

[JayDekkos]

[NRP128]

It's too bad I'm just discovering him after he past away.

[crogger321]

@NRP128 they have many albums so you have a lot of AMAZING music to discover yet from Eyedea and Abilities.

[Slode420]

i hate shitty computers and great songs...

[chazziepaul]

did you guys see abilities at 2:26? he took the vinyl off the turntable, was going to switch it with another one but put it back on and realized he had traktor or something and changed it on his laptop. haha, thats a true dj right there...

[ivorysin1988x702]

[RememberTomorrow93]

This man is deeper than I could ever dig.

It's a damn shame he had to leave so early.

Your music will forever have a place at the top of my collection, Mike.

R. Eye. P.

[glass509]

@RememberTomorrow93 yeh, the very fucking top. the way i look at it...there is music and there is eyedea

[MrIsuckBIGTIME]

[InsainBrane]

Amazing. I wish I could have seen him live R.I.P. Eyedea. You are missed

[ilikeyourcookys182]

[bdubs360]

This came really close to bringing me too tears, and I wasn't thinking about his death. What a genius

[Firstgizzle99]

Wow i was smiling this whole video i was in amazement how real it is.

Eyedea is amazing

R.EYE.P.

[ph3tooz]

Empathy is the poor man's cocaine

[bjplushkis]

i feel like a creep basically all i've done since october 17 was work and come home and watch videos of eyedea. i'm so sad i never got to see him live it's depressing me.

i really want to find a video performance of "by the throat"

it happens faster than you can ever think, from always and forever to never again in less than a blink. rest in peace

[UnReaLPs3Team]

@bjplushkis i would do the same but coming home from school. i wish i could've seen him live.

[blaker18]

RIP

[MetallicaSlayerGNR]

i wish i could find a video of the song by the throat live. that's probably my favorite song off the album. and now that he's gone i'll never get a chance to really see it.

[OM3N1R]

Anyone who has seen Eyedea live knows that he had something special.

Some call it talent, others call it passion.

Either way he will be missed. R Eye P

[wtfhugzomg]

May Eyedea, the best rapper ever, rest in peace.

[REVAMPtheindustry]

i miss eyedea

[bryawnutubeme]

I met him in Colorado when he played at the Famous Red Rocks Amphitheater. I was so grateful to have met him and not only been at the right place at the right time with over 10,000 people next to you, but see him play live in front of more people then ever thought of by underground Hip-hop artists. Unfortunate to have missed him in my hometown of Austin, TX where he played for a much smaller crowd.

to Sdethrow: Who cares why people listen to his music. Love hiphop! Let other find what they love

[bryawnutubeme]

Eyedea is one of a kind. Wierd. Different. An outsider. A GENIUS AND A LEGEND!

His lyrics changed me when I was a teenager and influenced me as a young adult and is still pushing me to strive for my passions.

Eyedea is a lyrical God! RIP - First Born

[xxrastamarleyxx]

I have a signed When in rome kill the king and Freestyle Jams got it when he did a free show at the walker art center in his home town MN, RIP you will be missed

[HpnTYzD]

Such passion. Sends chills down my spine every time I watch it.

Rest In Peace Mikey.

[DotzomgFearz]

fuck yeah, i love it

[RudeboyUT]

it seems like Jameson is the drink of choice for most Rhymesayers artists

[JesterPoetryArtVlogs]

RIP

[rastaqu3333n]

REST IN PARADISE

[sdethrow10]

its too bad hip hop kids are now listening to him cause he passed, the closest thing to this guy is cage and cage aint got shit on EYEDEA. R.I.P

[RudeboyUT]

@sdethrow10 better now then never. That's usually how it goes with musicians tho.. Usually its death that solidifies them as legends. I'm jus stoked he/his music is finally getting the attention and respect he/it deserves.

[ToXiCSc0peZ]

RIP

[CrazyCaptainWillie]

Rest in beats Mikey. Peace out.

[geeiwonder]

rhyme in peace

[cakkyboy]

[methadone89]

@morningafter907 you mean "only guarantee in life is death or a head fuck"

[morningafter907]

@symbal777 because it rings true... because rhymesayers are family... because slug and eyedea were best friends... because the two are two of the greatest lyricists in hip hop today... need i say more? fool.

[symbal777]

@morningafter907 my bad, douche.

[SeEeid]
