Josh Ritter - "Wolves" (Live at the Paradiso in Amsterdam)

[extropian]

What's stopping this video from having more views? And that's not a rhetorical question.

[TheKinchdedalus]

This song makes me Team Jacob...

[dryanwalker]

I love this song. I love all of Josh Ritters music. I agree with evenmvb this should have many many more views. He is by far the most talented singer/songerwriter of this generation.

[TriumphT140]

He doesn't get air time out here in MA, at least not on any station I've found. When I rode cross country a couple years ago I was giddy to hear him on the radio in a gas station, actually called my brother haha. Its weird tho, he's SO GOOD you'd think everyone would be playing him.

[ThePoonce]

supple.

[evanmvb]

This should have so many more views.

[twk0002]

awesome

[cruithneuladh]

Everything about this performance is perfect, a fantastic original song, great melody and lyrics.

Add in the great vocals, drumming, keyboards and bass and the result is perfection, I never get tired of listening to this!

[joshahlstrand]

Beautiful music as always - it just keeps getting better everytime I hear it - love the new album - The curse is a amazing piece of artistry -- thanks so much -n see you in Australia again soon I hope

[cruithneuladh]

Lillian, Egypt and Wolves from the album The Animal Years are two of my favourite songs ever, they are so original, the guy is a massive talent!

[MossyHarnett1988]

went to see Josh in around four years ago in Dublin, was only 17 at the time. it was a great gig. could name off the top of my head all the songs he sang that night. pure legend.

[Michele5957]

Beautiful song! Seems like something ot Tom Petty, but with more happiness and hope!!

[rainsurfer]

I can hear Bob Dylan and Eric Clapton. Josh Ritter gives me hope that music will still be inspirational and soothing for the soul someday when I have kids of my own.

[emisun]

the bruce springsteen influence is pretty apparent in this song.

[Pamicox]

perfect all, i like this song, great drums and hammond, that band rules

[cherylanne3]

Gotta loook n listen ...it's JOSH

[Pamicox]

this is good song, i want to listen this in electric with saxophones and others... will be magic wonderfull

[Peapod260]

saw him live at the marquee in cork, ireland on 4th july 2009, American Independence Day. Definitely best gig i was at so far.....Love Josh Ritter

[Jws2010]

People say he seems like he's Irish, but really he's from potato land...oops I mean Idaho :P

[JasonM96]

Thanks for the great video, Doug (well, all the great ones) and your work with the fansite.

[greatdane567]

you also know that josh ritter is not glen hansard who is the one from the frames, two different people completely!

[clancyolhausen]

josh what a man,hes bringing back a new age folk.the irish connection is the frames.they gave him a push but hes freewheling now.

[tepozjonny]

You know he is from Idaho USA, right?

[Scudsy101]

Yeah but his music is losely connected to Irish music and his fanbase in Ireland is MASSIVE.

[jonahlomu6969]

thats sum goateeeee on the bassist

[juliebuglovesdarren]

Just discovered him from cbc radio 2. Went out and bought the cd right away. So happy to find a fantastic new artist.

[McDaidUSA]

Josh was on everyone's best of 2007 list. I bought his latest album and he is an original for sure. I also like the irish connection, but I have not crossed over into true fandom yet. Maybe it will happen, maybe he will remain like Dave Matthews for me, a phenomenom for sure, but not one i can truly understand. I keep waiting for Vega4, another new band with irish connections to make it big. Good luck to Josh and his fans.

[ifwuatiw]

xioxenna afia-me a espada!

QUE DEUS!

[kaivader]

I just found out about Josh so far everything that I've heard has been great. I think his live stuff is his best work. He just seems to be having to much fun on stage.Keep it up Josh.

[Cavan1984]

the crowd are very sedated. When Josh plays in Dublin (his second "home") the place is absolutely jumping! :D

[guimondandre]

Its dublin! besides drinking and church they have music:P

[bowzyjnr]

i'm irish i should probably argue against that but ive got nothing! :)

[xioxenna]

you cant hear him singing live, cause everyone everywhere joins him for his songs.... this feels hollow. brilliant for a single, but where's the atmosphere? hard to believe it's live. i've seen him 2ce in galway and belfast. and the place was eletric! would love to see him in dublin......

[maitiudeburca]

The Live in Dublin CD/DVD should really whet you're appetite...I nearly enjoy all the live versions more than the originals!

[chronotriggerfan]

Great song, but I don't think he can top "Good Man", that song is so amazing!

[guimondandre]

haha both are right awsome

[ckad79]

Favorite song of mine. As far as the song 'wolves' during his stay in Maine, Josh has been singing about 'wolves' as far as back the song, 'Harrisburg'. Nothing new. When a wolf is lost, the pack howls to bring them together. I think this song is about losing somebody and looking back at the hard times (cold nights) that fell apart, etc.

[justinruns]

This is a great song, I love how Josh always sings with his eyes closed.

Can't wait to see him on November 1st!

[guimondandre]

Hes afriad if he opens his eyes whiel singing he'll see jesus and he'll take away the gift of song he gave him haha

[frozenoceanz]

Great video. I've seen him live twice now, and both times he stuck around to meet everyone after the show. A class act on and off the stage.

[Aido15]

Don't quote me on this but I think the Wolves thing is about the place he recorded the album. though from Idaho, i'm pretty sure he recorded it in a log-cabin style studio in a remote part of Maine... wolf country..

[mikelaabs]

Excellent artist!!!! Anyone have an idea as to what exactly he's referring to by the "wolves?"

[SwimAgainstTheWind]

Love this song.

[thechickster1]

the music is great!

[DohRay]

He is the best live performer I have ever seen

[rexis921]

He's just great. His musics, beautiful...

[margootje69]

Josh was excellent at the Paradiso

Go see him live!

[medianet]

Josh and the band are as great or better in person as they are recorded. They are delightful to watch and hear.

[weeepet]

Great song, wonderful live performance, cool video. Thanks!
