Martin Sexton - "Happy"

[dutch4fire24]

@kiiibu89 he has been coming up more and more from the roots revolution. Such an amazing performance. Each show is a bit different. I would be happy if i could remotly play my guitar like this man. Multi-talented.. see a show! I was just at his recent show in Chicago 1-20...just wow

[dutch4fire24]

Thumbs up if you want to destroy whatever morons disliked this

[97Hossa]

what kind of guitar is this ?

[darroth42]

@97Hossa that's an acoustic guitar. i dunno the model.

[synr789]

@darroth42 thats a niiice Taylor

[nathanjohnsonpt]

@mattf350 : not to be offensive at all, because I get what you're saying, but, Martin Sexton couldn't be the child of Dave Mathews and John Mayer; he was rocking long before either of those two cats. a more likely situation is that John Mayer and Dave Matthews are the far less-talented/sell-out, illegitimate sons of Martin Sexton.

[fortress1133]

I've seen John Mayer and David Matthews, but I'd go with Dave Matthews and Jack Johnson...

[MrBas25]

After listening to some songs of Martin Sexton, I had to rearrange my top 10 since Happy and Diner are now in it ;) and thanks to Paste for uploading this amazing music. Not a lot of musicians can sing like this live anymore. At the chance of being redundant, truly amazing ^^

[Skipperjif]

Marty you are truly a bad mamma jamma, If you like this type of music check out Hadden Sayers from Texas he has a duet with ruthie foster called back to the blues that's un-real!

[Megatonaxe]

he looks like jack black

[careooo]

AMAZING!



[miguelbalop]

[pagalidis]

[DaFunkyPrecedent]

This is so lame. Why do people waste their time with vanilla folk rock like this? It sounds like John Mayer and Dave had a fruity child...

Listen to Jim James, Matthew Houck, Jeff Tweedy for GOOD contemporary folk rock. this..this is what yuppies listen to when buying natural foods.

[TheJohnnyh13]

@DaFunkyPrecedent you judge him for the type of musik he makes? and all people which are listen to him?

its not his or our fault, that you are in the darker mood, stickin' to the "real" shit...make a record, release it. until that be quiet. this is kindergarten.

[DaFunkyPrecedent]

@TheJohnnyh13

You just don't know better...that's fine. if you listened to good song writers you would know this music is vanilla bull shit.

[TheJohnnyh13]

@DaFunkyPrecedent you dont got the point. music is always some kind of experssion of feelings, if you dont feel this one or this type of vanilla bullshit right now, its ok. no offense. but i wonder why you are "wasting time" still comment "this bullshit" if you dont give a shit to it. would you opinion cure us? no. sorry, dude, i've been listening to all kinds of music since i was born (thx mom), its all above the spectrum. pick up your guitar and play - and he's a really good example for this.

[1984annaj]

geile Koteletten!

[stellalush1]

Great singer..., I'm hooked. Cheers my dears! XxxXXx

[P0wn8ge]

My random youtubing night really paid off today, all i can say is 'holy sh*t'

[gizzarn]

hmm, does Jack Black have a brother??? Both looks and sounds like that!

[Chaneyslops]

he sounds a little like jack black

[CaliZup]

@Chaneyslops and looks like him too! I'm sticking with its his undiscovered far relative...

[ARCHfloyd]

@Chaneyslops he also looks like him lol

[romston]

Vraiment bon !! :D

[MrPlatypus70]

This guy is amazing..... the fact he is not a household name is a tribute to the lack of taste of the general population. Such a great voice and also a fantastic guitar player and songwriter, but more people want to hear Justin Bieber...... whatever

[rodonyou]

Yeah I'm happy !!!! :-)

[dmarti21]

Jack Black?

[coolwithit99]

@dmarti21 check out gearmandude for jack black dude

[lfddrummer3]

This guy really is the man. The guitar player of my band had the pleasure of going out on tour with him with his opening act, Cara Salimando. He said that Martin is the nicest, most down to earth guy ever. And he puts on a phenomenal show as well.

[devo8799]

he mentored John Mayer-He is a musical ICON!

[natefaizy]

hot damn i'm a happy man listening to this song

[fiftyfiftyband]

Effortless. Love your tunes Martin!

[cameronvw]

martin sexton kicks ass, want to hear him on the radio more!!

[gulchred]

this guy rocks, I urge you all check him out

[slvvh15]

"Tip your hat to the man" !!!

[1TheGamer]

You are amazing !!!!

Greetz from TURKEY

[comander747]

I love this music , and he´s very talented so why nobody know´s him here in germany , this is sad :-(

[alexfjord]

saw Martin at a summer music festival. had never heard of him. just him and his guitar on stage. sounded like he had a whole band up there. blew my freakin' mind the music he could deliver. a unique talent.

[happyking9]

He asked us: *snort* "be you angels?"

And we said: "Nay"

"We are but men"

ROCK!!!

[ragingstorm33]

@happyking9 wow dude lol

[gattij1]

omg fucking awesome song. This song will make anyone come out of ideation of death.

[thedish1212]

love it! Martin ROCKS!

[mattf350]

Kinda like John Mayer and Dave Matthews had a kid together that turned to be more talented than they are.

[skyiscrying53]

@mattf350 he sounds nothing like dave..he sounds good though

[xyseth]

@skyiscrying53 ooooh I'd like to agree with you, but he opened for Dave this Friday haha..my reaction was "wow I've never heard of this guy...he's amazing. He kinda sounds like Dave Matthews" I mean you have to admit he sounds a LITTLE like him. He sounds more like Jack Black to me lol..but a slightly better singer

[marklight]

@mattf350 actually Martin Sexton had DM and JM and unfortunately they weren't as talented as he was...

[dididididi75]

@mattf350 throw in some jack black too lol

[25Ragz]

@mattf350 wrong.... he's not better. theyre all amazing.

[jhernandez79]

John Mayer got his start touring with Martin Sexton. John Mayer wishes he had half the talent that Martin does. @mattf350

[Freddebasf]

His got a wonderful and unique voice!

[prazed1]

[AntonISAHOTT]

if this dosn't bring you up. Nothing will

[jordanbeaulieu]

if this doesn't bring you up, Bobby Mcferrin will.

if that doesn't bring you up, you suffer severe depression.

Poor you :(

[iScrubsFan]

Just love the part where he whistles

[scottay69]

this guy is so talented, pleasure to watch

[rodonyou]

First time I have heard this song and I loved great voice

[huntly53]

Mmm and a little bit of chubby will ferrell LOL

[badongism]

I rate Martin Sexton as one of my top 3 vocalists of all time. Though here he looks like a cross between Jack Black and Rich Fulcher.

[CoonhoundSid]

Damn....his range is phenominal!!!!!!!!! Love his positive energy & soul.

[egnilk66]

@CoonhoundSid He is INCREDIBLE live!!

[CoonhoundSid]

@egnilk66 Seen him many times now...just got tix, CT Dec 4 3rd row. Met Martin couple months back in New Haven, Toad's Place. I stumbled onto Marty's music at the Stone Pony 3 yrs ago. riding bikes on the boardwalk, said "eh, lets go see what it's all about." Didn't have tickets, very few people were there..I came, I saw, he conquered.... I see him whenever I can.

[BarackObanter]

@CoonhoundSid damnn right 

[sHiNeofR]

greetings from germany, this is impressive would love to see this live :/

[lighttemple1]

This is really really good... well done, thanks for this video

[JASPERJONES89]

LEGEND

[Numb2DaWorld]

Im so happy tonight. Im glad to finally see some "new" talent through this aged cloud of mediocracy over the past DECADE +2 years of duplicity.

We need a return of the 70's, 80's mentality of Music over image, imagine that......

[alonderis]

1st part is gibberish but the 2nd part is 100% true

[scottay69]

sweeet, he is coming to Santa Fe next month.

[Doud92]

He's amazing!!

[n8webb]

THANKX

[klasse2bub]
