Kings of Leon - King of the Rodeo @ Lollapalooza

[noysoN]

jared job is amazing

[lastofmykind8]

Cables voice at the end was awesome. It should have been on the track. :)

[lourdes5877]

I 'm just now discovering KOL, OMG, I cant stop listening to EVERY song, I LOVE THEIR SOUND!!

[Miss2million]

their best song, love KOL!

[wiego615]

good times to roll on :)

[eldog81607]

Why does everyone hate Only By the Night? If I hadn't listened to it, I wouldn't have discovered their older, even more impressive albums. Yes their sound changed, but their newer, poppier songs made me want to explore the older stuff.

[obunkystaind]

@eldog81607 same here. my teacher in high school tried to get me into 'em, but i never really tried. all I knew of them was "Taper Jean Girl" from the movie, DISTURBIA... after tht, tht was it.. then Use Somebody came out & boy did tht song make me feel good everytime it came on in the morning on Vh1 music...

[TheGil1946]

j,adore ce groupe cool boys

[ele523]

yeeeeeeeeee you tell'em

[annaparksabc]

this is my favourite song . by them , by anyone .

[girljeanschris107]

i wish the song wasn't so short!!!

[special21e]

its undeniable that the 4th album doesnt compare to the previous but for some reason it brought them success

[ThePapillon37]

it brought them success cuz it appeals to a wider audience, even america latched onto them when sex on fire hit the radio, but their real fans are in the UK, it's still a gr8 album regardless of what it does and doesn't live up to, they've learned lessons from it, just like Nirvana with nevermind, old nirvana fans will say nevermind is their worst album cuz it's the biggest one, same with KOL

[fleetcommanderboob]

i've loved them for years, and youth and young manhood is my favorite by far. im not really a fan of only by the night at all :/ i just like their fun music so much more ya know

[fitzy8109]

same with metallica fans that say the black album is their worst. just goes to show most bands have one

[emilifershure]

wow..this is the best freakin song EVER. i love that KOL can play their songs live and still make it just as good--sometimes better--as it does on the cd. i love them ♥

& jared at 0:43 - 0:45 ;) sexy!

[phrine23]

I hate when people say they sold out or they are mainstreem now it's not that it's just that the people that descover them now (and they are many went to their back catalogue and find how good the songs are and become fans ..and after all ....they are controversial cats that means they are interesting ,worth talking about and listening!

[sweetness2follow]

All bands turn to shit if they stay together long enough. Some have one great album in them, some three of four. And once they start playing the 'hits' and the kids around you want to hear the new record (which you hate cos its crap) its time for divorce.

[fitzy8109]

so your saying a band should break up when they become mainstream??? wow thats fucking stupid

[grzesieksz]

crap

[oaklandfan916]

where the hell is the sound guy throughout the song? the lead guitar was nonexistant

[music911music911]

hey there is a real band, they can play live

[Rainbowstars330]

yes they're they rockkk!! and I humped caleb hahaha

[greasuhh]

i love this song so much.... one of my favorites they ever had

and love how this versions so fast!!!

[KrolRasil]

This song holds a special place in my heart for it was their first song I listened... Brings back good memories!! ^^

[zacisthebest100]

Loved the end bit had a cool new different twist I liked it love them

[IndieRokker247]

if tey play this at readng 09, i may just pass out.

the best song. ever.

[kingoftherode09]

I went to reading... they were so shit. Played all there new stuff and shouted at the crowd n stuff saying " I thought Reading was the best crowd in the world?". There new albums such a downer, no wonder there wasn't an atmosphere. Plus all the teenyboppers were just there for sex on fire and use somebody. I really dont like what they've become :(

[IndieRokker247]

i was there too. dissappointing. i think i wrote that before i saw them at the 02. much better there. still no king of the rodeo tho :(. glad i saw them before reading tbh. and i see what oyu mean about the whole use somebody bandwagoners, i was stood infront of a twat who kept saying 'when are they playing use somebody, it sa ll im fackin' here for..' oh, and gigantor in front of me ruined it, couldnt see shit.....

[mag666gam]

Yeah they were real cunts at Reading, I thought the second half of arctic monkeys set wasn't very good either. Thank god there was the saving grace on sunday of the absolutely amazing Radiohead.

[ProjektLibre]

a little less pearl jam a little more kings of leon! (by the way, ive always like scott weiland more)

[Huggernot]

GWAN Eamon!

[edgarin28]

de lo mejor...

tienes q hacer algo bien para tocar

en el lollapalooza...

mi favorita.

[popptart4]

HAHAHAHAHA i laughed so much at 1:46. the people jumping look like retards haha!!!

however these jumping retards were the only motivated ones seeing how crap the crowd was.

KOL litteraly ALL of them look HOT at this Lollapalooza concert.. maybe its their tan or something.. caleb and jared look hotter than there usual hotness here.

[antalv300]

The crowd looks "HOT" because it was really HOT! In the three years I've been to Lollapalooza that was the hottest day. It was way worth it, Kings, MMJ, and Pearl Jam all in a row. You can't beat that!

[babybell5883]

The only thing Eddie Vedder can do is play the tambourine. Talentless is the only word to describe him.

[tenaciousE21912]

Even though he sings very well and also plays guitar....

[babybell5883]

LOL, are you crazy? Eddie vedder has ZERO talent. ZERRROOO!!! Anyone who thinks anything else knows nothing about music.

Kurt Cobain, Jeff Buckley, Yann Tiersen, Smashing Pumpkins. Listen to them and then tell me where Eddie and his tambourine fit :-D

[rockmatapop]

shut up fuckin retard, you don't know what talkin about Eddie Vedder it's a LEGEND!!!

[babybell5883]

yes hes a legend lol. This is coming from someone who cant evern write English. Eddie Vedder its a legend? Dont you mean Eddie Vedder IS a legend?

Either way, youre wrong on both counts.

Eddie Vedder is talentless, and only became known thatns to the genre that Nirvana created. The man has no soul, no musical ability and ZERO talent.

Now shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!

[rokerdude94]

Bob Dylan is quite a shite musician also, but by god he is a fucking amazing poet.

What's your point?

[martinkek]

go play in the traffic, please.

[jamie71907]

Hilarious

[irena2009]

this song makes me so happy every time I hear it :D

[RADIOHEADxlive]

great song 2 bad the crowd sucked ass

[loogi86]

did u guys notice that caleb's guitar wasn't on?

[gaza592]

Nah mate it was on

[andystrobach]

his guitar is on dumbass if you were to know what caleb plays and you were to know how to hear clearly you could see that it only lower than everybody else no disrispect though

[PLCBZ]

are you serious?!

from 2:27 you can only ear caleb's guitar

[PortugalTheAccount]

that's cause he's the only playing, you twat!

[PLCBZ]

That's exactly my point, you dumb shit!!!

To bad you don't have enough brains to understand it.

[fences37]

wow if i was there i would be craazy!

and that crowd was lame.

i'd be like trying to get on the stage

and screaming this song at the top of my lungs

there so amazing live.!

[Ariesbetch]

Fucking waste of a crowd. Are they for real? AMazing band, great uplifting funky ass tune, sunny day... i dont get it? what a bunch of drips.

[Acquiesce18]

best comment i've ever read :P

[Ariesbetch]

love u xx hahaha

[cubsfan234]

i agree the crowd sucked here but hopefully at lollapalooza this year they'll be better

[xxsexcbitchxx]

I love Caleb. So much!

[andresfigo]

COLDEST CROWD EVER

[ilovemutemath]

HAHAHA matthew @ 2:09

Kings of leon might be my favorite band.

[PJYost38]

Is it just me or is he starting to look like one of the millions of Steven Tyler offspring? Add some cheap jewelry and a scarf or two... anyway great song.

[Milenaryvens1]

WOW you're right he looks so funny:D

[twelvecutstodate08]

This one's a true dandy !!

[chairlover721]

my favorite KOL song

[587aacinom]

my god, me too.

[Whitemalan]

deffo!!!!!!!!

[ffjjkkii]

that's the thing with KOL, they're music is simple but still maintains it's sublime status. That's rare in music. The tunes are so catchy!

[1mcampo1]

Did i say their music was bad?

i was just answering to smelllikelithum

[partyorange]

i personally think that part of why they are so good is that they just make no nonsense good music. Caleb's voice is unique enough that they don't really need to make the instruments exotic or anything.

they just make simply good music.

And i agree that even though i know like nothing about bass, i really like the bass in their music.

[1mcampo1]

I have been playing drums for over 4 years and personally, i think most drumming for Kings of Leon songs are quite easy

[kingmod01]

does it need to be hard to be good ?

might be the eastiest drumming in the world but there musics the best !!

[Quinnpie]

Haha!

[crashtheride]

i agree the drums are pretty easy

[ldu03113]

What about Slow Night So Long, or McFearless etc?

[crashtheride]

slow night so long is still fairly easy.

McFearless isnt that easy but its still not particularly hard either.

[pickupthebass1]

@1mcampo1 Mcfearless sound quite hard, but i would not know im a bassist

[SmellsLikeLithium]

Most kings of leon songs are quite easy to play on guitar and bass, their songs were the first I learned to play on my guitar. I think the rhythm part in this song is just on one chord throughout. The drumming sounds pretty complex though.

[robdavewal]

All I can say is I wish I had been more into this band when they played Boston last year. "Because of the Times" is one of the best albums to come out in recent years. Every video I've seen so far on yt convinces me how good these guys are live. Come back to Boston soon, fellas!!

[hippie336]

Jared (bass player) just dominates every songs. He is up there for the best bass players in the world. I dunno if what he'd playing is hard and it doesn't matter if it is cause everything he plays just makes the song what it is. Every Kings Of Leon song i listen for that bass. Always beautiful :)

[theoge]

they are very easy in my view, still being simple doesn't mean that its not good! its amazing!!! perfect example the edges guitar for u2, simple yet perfect!

[TheKabellena]

i think i'd like to marry someone like caleb. =] good personality, good looking, good singer, good musician etc. hahahaa. love this song so much!

[LcUiFdCi4LiFe]

I love the ending to this it sounds ace

[jcl424]

One of the best bands in the world, seriously.

[megamegamog]

ive never bought 2 albums and loved every song on both but now i have :D i love KOL!! x

[ronschan]

what are they saying at the end? is it "u got to roll on"?

[PortugalTheAccount]

Good time to roll on.

Fuck, lyrics sites; learn of them.

[Paladinsucks]

i thought it was "go talk to ronald"

[ashlee2991]

laugh out fucking loud!

[PortugalTheAccount]

LMAO!

GO TALK TO RONALD!

Kudos.

[djgph]

good time to roll on!!!

[shwunkymunky]

cowgirl, king of the rodeo, let the good times roll, let the good times roll!!!

[creamdaddy07]

[plumbhills]

[wardy999]

[g1982m]

Let the good times roll.....

[taperjeangirl3]

[gonebraska]

These guys are f#^@ing amazing!!!!!!!!! I wish I could see them live!!!

[xTRESCHIC]

I've seen them live 3 times and each time was better then the last! You should defintelyyy see them live!

[FoosIncubusKOL]

I saw them twice on their UK tour last year, you're definately missing out. They're one of the best live bands on the planet!

[foxyfonzie]

@gonebraska Yes they are amazing live...and nice name btw! GO BIG RED!!
