  • -Do you hear that ?

    -How it is called ?

    -Music.

  • he is a genius !

  • 16 people are going the wrong way

  • he's practically a modern day Jesus, we could use one these days with the world in turmoil...

  • i thought that this is already the 3rd john butler trio? at least i remember reading somewhere that he likes to switch band members to keep things fresh. just look at older bands like u2 etc. in the beginning the songs where more awesome in my opinion the new stuff is more of a normal song but it hasn't got a vibe.. with the butler trio i haven't found one song i didn't like every song has a different vibe.

  • this song reminds of being in Humboldt county, i dont know why

  • Damn :D Love It :D !!!!!!!!!!!

  • sup with the japanese

  • great song

  • He should wear a couple of his dreads around his neck rather than a bandanna :(

  • he's like a folk rapper... he could beat eminem anyday!!

  • @DanBestBaby hahahahaha fucking idiot

  • To all,

    The songs sound as if they haven't really changed, just a faster tempo. It is not due to new band members. Read wiki John Butler Trio and you will see that band members have changed all throughout the career and the most popular album to date....Sunrise Over Sea had 2/3 of the band it has today

  • This song is the shit

  • @Scarecrowman27 totally lol, i was looking after south park episode, damn, not cool...

  • Epic slide guitar skillz ftw!!!

  • It is interesting though, the fact that john butler's songs have changed in accordance with the new guys continuing the existence of jbt, his songs have gone away from the blues and roots which he started with into a more rockier sound which is great, but i just hope that he doesnt go away from the thing that made him successful completely. Because Zebra which is one his earliest hits should go down as having one of the greatest riffs of all time and it would be a shame for him to away from that

  • Dude, I totally want to grow a moustache with my beard now..

  • Where is his old drummer and bass player?

  • i really wanna see jon butler battle jon mayer, fucken pay per view match up right their

  • looooooove this song. so perfectly done. <3 JBT <3

  • I miss the dreadlocked, chilled out, Groovin Slowly JBT.

    Not saying his new stuff is bad, just not for me.

  • one thing to say : so talented musician !!

  • its has changed its cause hes obviously learned more ...there for knows more ..there for is better

  • I hate how people say he's changed

    i hate how people say that bands have changed

    get the fuck over it, they're allowed to pursue new things

    music is his job, his career, his life. who would want to be stuck doing the same thing for the rest of their life.

  • @AllOnPaper Excellent comment. completly agree

  • @MrKrhill Thankyou man :) i've watched him busk in freo before he was big, and always followed and supported him. Truly an excellent musician!

  • @AllOnPaper I hate how people hate people saying people change...get the fuck over it. They're entitled to their opinion

  • @AllOnPaper Couldn't agree more bro!

  • @AllOnPaper your a hater haha

    

  • this is the best song=)

  • very good song- liked his dreddies though

  • very good song

  • The only new JBT song I actually like :/ I respect him and such, but does anyone else think he lost some of "the magic"?

  • @mushroomz88 I agree but it's all relative I guess. I prefer the old trio to this one, although I love Revolution and this song's not half bad. Sunrise Over Sea was and still is an amazing album. Superior to his newer stuff in my opinion.

  • Just smile sit back and think of all the good things..

  • lets face it, this guys the shit

  • He ' s amazing! 

  • He ' s amazing! I love him! <3

  • tell you what dude, this man knows how to put on a DAMN good live show. every one of his songs had that typical john bulter feeling to it. what a musician.

  • i love how his songs have a certain meaning to life

  • この曲のイメージでサァーフィン!!

    最高!!

  • @1193147 so true?

  • Great to read that my Friend! shame the Australian Government consider him and his follower's ( ME) a blemish on Aussie society!

    Feral, tree-hugging, Trespassing environmentalist etc etc and Nothing but trouble...

    Music is pretty much the only medium we can use for free speech in this current environment!

  • @staids That's for KamberWillow...

  • WHERES HIS DREADS!? D:

  • @miyonjessica i know right! Why the hell has he got rid of them. I wanted his hair.

  • @wingman13pilotfan1 SO EXCITED! I'M GOING TO THEIR CONCERT IN MELBOURNE :D

  • @FanGirlJoe27 omg i know its guna b sooooo good

  • does anyone else think this sounds a tad like semi-charmed life?

  • @thestormlscoming yeah at the beginning chord progression at least. But really there's only so many chords you can make especially with a slide guitar

  • @s30488 good point, i still dont really understand how chords are formed with slide guitars...i feel like theyre all just giant bar chords or something. but yea, i still love the song, the lyrics are great, and its another i can add to my jogging mix =] lol

  • を性交ろくでなし

  • @wowimshane haha was just thinking the same,

  • this guitar is my cannon <3

  • Miss the dreadlocks..............but he is nearer to god.

  • John Butler does some awesome music but can anyone tell me why he changed the trio?

  • @LittleWeirdMonkey

    Family stuff

  • @GodJimi32 nah it wernt - he needed new people around him for differant musical styles and influences

  • @somers16 Oh yeah, my bad, it was an other band i think, well i don't have any excuse :p

  • @LittleWeirdMonkey Simple, If you don't change your tune, Your gonna get old, Fast. The other members didn't wanna change, So he simply said Your fired.

  • This song is fucking AMAZING!

  • whats that sng they have at the momenton te raio??? its pretty cool

  • great song ,but rory gallagher is the best guitarist ever

  • i love this song and the message

  • gahh, this song is soo addicting <3

  • where are the forkin dreads al

    n i like cheese mmm oh yea it makes me jizz in my pants

  • What happened to the other bass player? From Grand national? I saw them in calgary and he was awesome on the stand up bass.

  • Me too - really should be studying but bopping about to JBT! What a happy song!!! :) :)

  • the best....:) I love this!! :*

  • @climbhigherstirling - pretty sure john butler's the last guy you ever have to worry about selling out, as long as he's speakin his mind and rippin the guitar like that hes fine by me :)

  • Brilliant song, but could somebody tell me how "who thinks the whole world revolves around him" sounds like "abaddawholeworydhfim"?

  • i love nicky bommbaaa. he lives in my town :)

  • love this guy but on the wrong road dont sell out

  • good song

  • He's simply amazing

  • je veux savoir le nom de ce effet svp merci .

  • June 11 Chicago!!

  • he reminds me of les claypool

  • @MrChopper0077 if u mean looks i see what u mean

  • @12itsjustme really has not put out enough quality music to be considered " best guitarist ever" but still feel free to have your opinion, jimi hendrix or srv would hold that title

  • I think he may have played this with Nicky last year in London @ Union Chapel. I love JBT.

  • this reminds me of Billy Joel's we didn't start the fire.... such a good song.

  • Coolio

  • such a catchy song :P LOVE IT!!

    this song is going straight to the pool room...

  • fuck man this guy changed, cut his hair and became commercial... not my type anymore

  • All the people that hate this new album have no clue! Seriously people....LISTEN TO THE MEANING OF THE LYRICS!!!!!!!!!!! You've just all been brainwashed it's ok...COME BACK TO REALITY!!!! AND STOP THE HATING....no one likes profanity and negativity..that's why this world is going to hell if people don't start waking up :0

  • @n8renee2m amen bro!!!!

  • @n8renee2m lol, ur right man,

  • @n8renee2m I can't agree. The lyrics have meaning, sure, but he's a musician, not a politician, and everybody knows that politically engaged artists often put talent aside and focus on the message they want to transmit. These chords aren't more complicated than Blink 182 ( a band I do respect ) but John has made FAR better albums. Sorry to be a killer.

  • Comment removed

  • @Sparks12301 "everybody knows that politically engaged artists often put talent aside and focus on the message they want to transmit".

    Like John Lennon, U2, Rage, Bob Dylan, R.E.M.,Paul Simon, Peter Gabriel, Bruce Springsteen. What a bunch of fucking hacks!!!

  • @mikebnllnb

    man your fuckin stupid they want a message heard and fightin for it your just listenin to it bein a fuckin pesimistic duche bag

  • @mikebnllnb

    Seems it was almost the other way round for some of them...They put their politics aside for the mighty dollar...Not saying they're not great though...Just that some people conveniently forget what their musical motivations were in the 1st place...Suppose it's hard to be taken seriously on political issues such as poverty when they rake in as much money as they do though...And they often become ridiculed as hypocrites for it....so long as the music is good i dont give a fuck

  • @n8renee2m well played holmes.. goes well into depth

  • My nipples are hard

  • such a well done music video

  • I have finally found out where I have heard this one before:

    Hanson, mmbop

  • I wonder who those 11 people are that dont like this and why they bothered looking at the song xD. LOVE JBT <3

  • he rocks

  • "Raise up your fists if you believe in revolution"

  • i know someone he is my unkle

  • big respect to anyone that can play the slide like that

  • Guys. Listen to the lyrics please. That's what John wants you to do.

  • あれこんな明るい感じの曲やるバンドだったっけ?

    でもすごくいい!!

  • Funky.

  • samee ere

  • haahaha

  • Comment removed

  • @mikenorris909 ...what?

  • can not wait to see them this june!

  • BEST GUITARIST EVER!!!!!!

  • @12itsjustme as awesome as he is, hes not the best guitarist ever, dont twist my words here, awesome, just not the best

  • @ROBtimesTEN then in your opinion who is/was

  • @sousanieves i wouldnt know, there are alot of bands or even people without bands that i have never heard of before so it would be hard to say, but i would have to sy one of the best was clapton

  • @12itsjustme HOW DARE YOU!!

    HENDRIX IS THE BEST GUITARIST!!!

    butler is awesome too though lol

  • not the best on the album, but perfect to encourage sales. you need one of these nowadays, anyway, to draw in radio and civilian album-buyers

  • this is... oh my fucking god, where does one start? this is diabolical.

    this redefines middle of the road, mediocre, pedestrian shit.

    JBT had some great tunes early on. three was a great album.

    i'm not just a hater but this is absolute rubbish.

    above all, it's so boring.

    commercial radio will love it. it's the perfect length, has the right number of choruses, it has nothing that's not immediately obvious.

    john butler, get some balls and put some serious solos and developments in your tracks.

  • @thechutestunnels I concur. I think he sold out on this one.

  • @tstewart01 Tstewart - you're an idiot if you think he's sold out. Read the lyrics to this song.

  • @thechutestunnels You're an idiot if you think music is just about the sound that comes out of an instrument. Read the lyrics fagot :) Maybe that'll show you that commercial radio, if they understood this song, would hate it. This song has big balls, and I can tell that john's got a HUGE fucking heart & mind, and a lot of courage, for letting this out into the world.

  • OMG JUNE 11th MAN JBT IN CONCERT CHICAGO!!! WOOOOOO!!!!!!

  • I love JBT

    I love the formation with Michael and Shannon, but I can't

    deny, they're still veeery good this way they are now, altough I don't

    understand a single word of what he is saying...but is ok!

    =)

  • for some reason this guys voice and this song remind me of the digimon movie back in the day..good times!

  • pretty freakin great song! I've never been this glad I followed an ad haha. Ill listen to some more of these guys! great video!

  • i love this song!

  • You all should check out close to you, it's the best song on the new album

  • I don't know why people are getting funny about the new band members.... The drummer is Nicky Bomba, who was in the JBT previously and i'm pretty sure featured on Sunrise Over Sea, and yes he is John's brother in law.

    "I've learned it's not always about having the same players for five, six or 10 years, its having the right chemistry for these songs at this time. Some of my favourite Jimi Hendrix music is off-the-cuff stuff with Band of Gypsies."

  • michael barker was a great drummer

  • sexy

  • SEXY

  • @climbjak7 New Everything actually. John Butler said he needed to explore his options, so he got a new bass player and drummer. The drummer I THINK is like his brother-in-law. Check out his website it shows blog videos of this is upcoming band and its members

  • @myfacehasgone lmfao @ being stoned. ftw

  • @myfacehasgone I feel yah

  • anyone notice the new band members? new drummer, cant tell if its a new bassest, lost his dreads ugh. I mean i lvoe this song, tis great, but his old stuff, his old band, and his old persona i loved. New shit is great, but pleas John dont lose the best stuff you've made, like ocean, zebra, daniella, ext. and the people that started to liten to him from this song, go check out his older stuff. THATS the John Butler Trio.

  • last post had it right. Listen, and u cant help but dance....commercial yes, but boy can that man deliver a tune!!!

  • disapointed.... sounds a bit like a "easy-listening" -radio song... Still are the John's voice, the guitar chorus ... but... the guitar riff at the begining is devoid of creativity (sounds like a disney channel song)... I'll wait for the entire album, but I hope JB's not loose its original creativity...

  • @TheMrBite i dunno if you've heard yet, but i have to say. i HATED--did you catch that? HATED this song when I first heard it. But now that I've heard all of April Uprising, it's like I sort of understand what this song is and why it was written the way it is. Listen to the album. It's worth it. I promise. :))

  • I really should be studying right now...instead I find myself dancing....man studying and dancing are hard to combine.

    Great song!

  • @TheAtcat Not if dance is your study. But if not : Lift your face from your dusty books. Dance to celebrate life. We age sooner  than we think. I know. : O

  • @TheAtcat haha i had an assignment due yesterday and i still cant stop myself watching this!

  • Handsome, environmentally concious, family orientated, super musician, can we produce some more of these please? Top song. I'm dancing too :)

  • @TheAtcat unless you study DANCE!!!

  • @TheAtcat HAHA I LOVE YA X

  • @TheAtcat DUDE thats exactly whats happening to me. Damn these guys, that make it impossible to listen to them without running for my guitar. LOVE JBT
