The Black Keys - Everlasting Light (Live on KCRW)

[iamthetoe]

A friend pointed out, this song was clearly influenced by T Rex. Check out Mambo Sun and it will hit you like a brick shithouse.

[carouselambra7]

@TheCheykha ew. no.

[rodferify]

black keys are my Brothers

[StantsLOL]

@TheCheykha ... Why would you say that... Theyre two very successful bands in completely unique sounds and TBK are wayyyy better/cooler/rock-ier

[TheCheykha]

anyone think this song sounds like a Kings of Leon potential?

[tricey4534]

@TheCheykha when did you start listening to Kings of Leon?

[funkyjimm]

2 people must be Nickelback fans.

[drizzydezzy09]

@funkyjimm hahahaha. funny stuff

[THEMAR0VENg]

[infuckinglimbo]

For all the shit that guy talks, he sucks at the drums.

[miki4088pen]

dans falsetto is fucking perfect

[miki4088pen]

0:02 holy shit the second guitarist looks like pete townsend in the 80's

[15381472]

@miki4088pen, that's a bass player

[cottonballbullets]

wait this song was in a commericial?

[IbangSEVENgramROCKS]

I want to marry Dan's voice.

[johnniedig]

They did this at Summerfest in Milwaukee after Florence + The Machine opened for them. I was sitting pretty far back and when I heard Dan singing I thought they must have brought Flo back out to sing! Props for doing that live.

[jceowoodard]

Progressive car insurance snap shot commercial comes to mind

[BrianHR100]

this cannot be turned up loud enough !

[KellyAnn2390]

This is such a sexy song, man.

[TheCheykha]

this kinda sounds like a cud b kings of leon collaboration

[TheGuitardude94]

I'm addicted to a drug man, can't go to rehab from it and I can't run away from it...it JUST GOTTA BE. it's called THE BLACK KEYS....ut one thing i do know in the end, they will be my everlasting light.

[phanthomboy]

@TheGuitardude94 Hey Lonely Boy, Tighten Up, Im Howlin' for Them Too.

[TheGuitardude94]

@phanthomboy nice, i love that lmao

[thickfreak11]

Such an amazing voice.

[ZekeTheAwesome]

@electricpie389 Make that two my friend....

[Richy14332]

Was worried Dan couldn't sing this live. He proved me wrong.

[ledzeppelin174]

@Richy14332 Same, I thought it was for sure one of those songs only good in the studio. But alas I was wrong haha

[JefferstChmilst]

Organ too loud.

[hamsterdam92]

I like how straightforward he was at the beginning of the vid

[AhReeEl]

Ehhhh the elec piano sounds to poppy and obvious. Dun like. D:

[gochuckyourself1892]

Don't miss a chance to see them live. Stunning.

[electricpie389]

1 person's light went out

[2bdragons]

If you ever get a chance, See them live!!!

[leyway]

effing awesome!

[chandlersitting]

I like the track better because it doesnt have such a powerful piano riff.

[GranDrJ]

@chandlersitting yeah maybe if the piano was played in a lower octave or something it would be better. You know, something with more low frequency instead of a happier pop sound like this.

[stude444]

@GranDrJ Or maybe just turn it down a bit.

[GranDrJ]

@stude444 haha that works too

[unrated12soloist]

i want that shirt

[XxStonedKillerxX]

Whats with the organs!? /:

[tryan1700]

soo good live

[sfsquirrel6]

The Black Keys ARE my Everlasting Light

[cmerenuge]

he's got amazing range

[greenmelpomene]

i want a dan in my life 

[bobetman1]

more feel than ultra thin condoms

[mcgeeestrang]

the organ kills it in my opinion.. saw them at the bluesfest in ottawa 2 weeks ago, they opened with this song and it was absolutely amazing!:D

[CleanMetalSpoon]

@mcgeeestrang I agree

[emilyc2232]

I'm dead.

[JAMMYbeast]

Just saw these guys last night!! I just can't get enough!

[nopvictor]

im sorry but the album is way way better

[TrademarkedBand]

@nopvictor dude the organ adds soooo much this version owns sure its not as sonically huge but its great

[Dirtbagging]

Amazing song, but I have to agree that the album version is better with the dirtier sound. Still great though!

[MrLaurensio]

I so much like the way he sings this song...

[lysolbombs470]

Eh...prefer the album over this, unfortunately. The album has a real dirty sound...this is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too clean to compare.

[badgernation74]

Great song, and better than the album version by a mile

[JorJor812]

This sounds really cool but i love the way it sounds on cd better because of the enormous bass and dirty guitar!

[gmq402]

@JorJor812 I totally agree! By the way, this is one of the few case of a song by them which sounds better in studio than live!

[eqsheiky]

It feels so odd to have such silence after the song is done, the fucking walls should be cheering.

[jordanbuckelew]

I'm still baffled as to why they added the other two members. It's not that big deal if you embellish an album a bit with more instrumentation, because it makes going to shows to see how they're going to play it live a lot more interesting....that's how I felt at a lot of their shows. What the keyboard player adds here is just distracting in my opinion..

[blackmoon331]

@jordanbuckelew I don't think they added more members, but when they record they record everything separately so when they do it live they have to get someone to do the additional part such as the bass and piano. That's why it's hard to find bass tabs for older black keys stuff.

[jordanbuckelew]

@blackmoon331 I mean just when they play live. I quite liked hearing how they would end up playing songs live without the extra instrumentation. Psychotic Girl for example.

[jaco93riv02]

man, his falsetto is really strong!

[jessedonnavin]

its a great song and i looove the black keys but i personally thing that they guy on the keyboard should lower ther volume of his instrument..

but still an amazing song

[LethalChipmunk1]

the keyboards too loud

[rockmyraccoon]

Dan's voice is incredibly sexy!! 

[rockmyraccoon]

Dan's voice is incredibly sexy!!

[rockmyraccoon]

Dan's voice is incredibly sexy!!

[Desmondiva]

Oh wow!!! This was such a treat!!! I love this song, and this is so far my favorite performance!!! :D

[videotime31]

love the Keys- but on a shallow note, Dan is so very hot in this- love his t-shirt!

[champkind4]

rolledgold i agree with the first part but they wrote this album to have a lot more soul and they need to the bass and keyboards to get the sound they want. saw them in austin and it was just them two playing all their good old stuff and when they played anything from brothers they brought out the band then the bassist and keyboards left and it was back to the original badass keys...theyre amazing

[rolledgold77]

i dont like when bands that have few people bring in extra musicians to perform live. like i seen green day tours with a dude who plays lead guitar for them. and i saw the black keys on snl like this with a bassist and keyboard.

[Ethonadon10]

@rolledgold77 i like bands who don't give a shit about what people like you think

[rolledgold77]

@Ethonadon10 and i personally dont give a shit what YOU think. so dont talk to me. i didnt say they sucked, one of the best bands of the day.

[TheTheresamurphy]

Great Band.

[MusicalCharity]

amazing song, addicted

[pinko152]

best album cover evrrrrr

[goosfrabaza]

sweet shirt, awesome band, great voice!

[TheTheresamurphy]

Amazing from the first note.

[TrademarkedBand]

@TheTheresamurphy hell from the first high hat
