did the drummer get up from his kit get a tom tom, run up to the front and play the shit out of it before running back to his kit or did i miss something?
@HStokk Um, no? Listen to some of their other live recordings, or the original. It's not the same. The picking is much different in this video. My band and I have been covering this song for years
its a live version, its supposed to be different. It shows that they can improvise and also he probably gets tired of playing the exact same thing every time.
Man, you know I've found myself hooked on this tune throughout my life and I have to say, it got me again. Great work Rusted Root and Fearless Music! Cheers, all!
@radkidmoe She's the percussionist. Attempt to imagine this tune without the extra percussion instruments--let alone the harmony on the backing vocals. Jeeez, this is exactly the reason schools need music education, not to mention some instruction about gender and diversity! P.S. Go chat with your mom about her role in your world. Peace, out.
@h3sniperman Actually, count the pegs carefully--it's a 5-string. They've been common in rock/pop since the early 90's. One of the first players was the bassist from the fusion jazz group The Yellowjackets (amazing player!). 6-string basses are around, but they're unwieldy with thick bass strings, so not too many players use them.
I like this assembly of great musicians.......djembe...NICE,,,,,,I have a 25x14 djemba and I can thump on it.....usually results in me being told ot KEEP IT DOWN SEND ME ON MY WAY NOW
@PereiraAtWar... If you're so good at bass, why not put a video of yourself up on here? I can guarantee there are loads of people who would LOVE to hear you play your shit. Prick.
@PereiraAtWar Why do you feel you have to pick fights? I do play an instrument and I'm not too bad at it. This band is not as 'FAMOUS' as the Red Hot Chili Peppers so I don't know what you're talking about. Open your mind a bit little boy, there is so much more to simplicity than you realise. Please now shut up.
Lol, PereiraAtWar is another one of "those" people who feels as if they have an advantage over everyone for they have an ego driven by cheap interest in mainstream. Hey, shut up and enjoy the music like the others who chose to watch this video. Screw you and your mentality that suggests music has to be technical to sound good. Grow up, dickhead.
The 90's music sucked, but for Rusted Root! The 2000's is worse.....there are a few bands, but for the most you have crap! The 80's music was the best!
@PereiraAtWar Believe me mate, you're not anywhere near as good as the bassist. He's not playing because the normal versiion of the song it takes a very dominant role. Just sit back and listen to his fantastic backing vocals and enjoy the music because it's amazing :)
@10NutiniMayerDallas wtf the fact that he's not playing shows how shitty he is...if the bass is such a big part of the song how come he didnt play more than half the song and u can normally turn the bass volume higher than everything els and still hear the rest of music i can play cliff burton solos with ease and some fool who addresses me as "mate" is saying otherwise the songis obviously amazing but i like tech. music and if the bass player is just filling up a spot on stage, it makes mesad :(
@10NutiniMayerDallas this song is one of the easiest songs to play on bass so much i learned it in a matter of minutes...just because the bassist is in a FAMOUS BAND doesnt mean their god if anything the only reason this band is famous is because of the original bass recording(which isnt in the song...like u said), flute, and the lead singers unique voice and simple repeating guitar notes...learn to play...then talk shit :)
@10NutiniMayerDallas the backup singing that the BASS PLAYER was doing sucks to hes just thewre to be there sad...good thing there are bands like rhcp to keep technical bass going :)
wow ther bass player sucks so bad he wasnt even in most of the footage...and when he is u either cant see his bass or can clearly see him not playin anything with his bass...im a better bass player than him and im 16...just sad
@drumaddiction9907 wtf, can u hear the bass? almost the whole song hes only singing i can play this song with ease...in fact its too easy...i normally play rhcps or metallicas cliff burtons style...heres a trick listen to the recorded version then the live...the bass player=shit
@drumaddiction9907 kinda cute?...u being a freak is not going to make u sound any less retarded than the 4 #'s at the end of ur name or ur dumbass opinion to an obvious fact (the bass player doesnt play bass the whole song) stop trying to create a false sense of importance that can only be achieved by replying to my comments in anger cuz i dissed a fact (no bass in the song even though its "most prominent in original" = FAIL!) about the band u jizz to at night
@PereiraAtWar wtf...why didyoutube type a link instead...the "4 #'s" is "four numbers"...anyway...i can play this song 100% perfect or with my own style of improv...i can play RHCP, Metallica, Rusted Root, STP, LZep, etc. So, creepy guy with creepy/ugly hair texts to a 16yr old boy "kinda cute"...ur off slightly and shouldn't be on youtube (mabye somewhere were people enjoy creepy comments from shitty drummers who like a false sense of importance through having a fukd minds; like petobear)
i dont like being an arsehole, but... seriously. No one cares.
and yes, im 15, yes, i do play a few instruments, no im not insane on them and no, i dont give a shit what you have to say in reply to this. Just shut the hell up. sorry.
Lol it bothers me how the lead singer is drowned out by the lady who isn't very good at singing, when the lead singer himself is really good at singing.
ok lets all run in the canyons wearing native american clothes yeaaaa and have un i dig it!!!!!! LOL i blast this and dont care how crazy it sounds or looks!
Please people if you like this,then go download or buy ALL their albums,this is a truly fantastic band that for some reason has never seeked the Limelight,but has a steady and dedicated following for a reason!!!
is it my imagination, or was this the song that played in the animated movie Ice Age, when the prehiistoric odd-trio began their trek to return the infant human to its tribe?
@SupernalOne and everybody else who replied: No, not your imagination. That odd-trio did actually track humans a long long... long time ago :-) Possibly even with this song in their heads ;-)
