F-STOP BLUES

[soinet]

oh my gosh... Ron Perlman playing a Jack Johnson song? ahah...similar faces... different talents..... but similar faces eh!

[Nothrenlight]

9 people suck at life

[MrAtiebatie]

It's amazing how he plays the guitar and sing at the same time... o.O

[sublindsey11]

Jack Johnson -3

[ShoutWire]

How are you knuckleheads going to tell Jack Johnson that he's playing his guitar to close to the neck when he wrote this song? This is Jack Johnson, folks.

[AvikChatterjee818]

Jack Johnson is a legend

[MrCyaltrbye]

He wrote it so I'm pretty sure he's playing it right. makes sense eh?

[natinaati]

Dulce.. perfecto

[hididdledeedum]

This is Jack Johnson retards

[effobama1992]

LOL at this guy playing it wrong. i looked up the tabs and asked my band teacher how to play it. wat an idiot

[dmunki12]

@effobama1992 The guy in the video??? I believe that's Jack himself; kinda makes you the idiot eh?

[guitarghandi69]

@effobama1992 you're not too bright huh? That's the dude who wrote the song that's playing it.

[TheGuitarWizard96]

@effobama1992 Wow dude. Just wow.

[Alixamon]

@effobama1992 Fucking retard.

[bryandunnblues]

OK.. what am i missing here.. thats Jack right?? im underst other understanding all the other comments ?? Confused look on my Face ;/

[Mednicoff]

how can you not like this? What's with these people who hit the unlike button? bitter motherfuckers....

[armandahammer]

OMG. please read @moonshadowwolfe 's first comment...in which he tells Jack Johnson how to play HIS song.

"youre playing too close to the neck"

"unless this guy is jack johnson (unlikely)"

...toooooo funny

[jackjohnsonlessons]

what guitar he uses?

[JoeMarinoMusic]

@jackjohnsonlessons Some kind of Martin in this video...

[MrJcyr]

This song is incredable.

It just made me completley reinvent the way i write music.

[670dee]

Fuck you 8 people ><

[jh2okot]

sitting here laughing my ass off at all the people that don't know this is actually jack

[TheAwEsOmEnEsS124]

@jh2okot haha i know right

[wildernesstrance]

A most beautiful song like being on the beach with Jimi and being lulled by such a wonderful voice

[jparkee]

@MoonShadowWolfe hahaha you are too funny this is Jack Johnson

[MoonShadowWolfe]

You're doing something different than what my guitar teacher told me to do ... you're only using the frets closer to the end of the neck, and you're finger-picking instead of strumming.

Seems to work for you, but the way I do it sounds similar.

[chumps321]

@MoonShadowWolfe

this guy wrote the song

[MoonShadowWolfe]

@chumps321 What makes you say that? Jack Johnson wrote F-Stop Blues, so unless he's Jack Johnson (unlikely) then he didn't write the song.

[Skeleboto69]

@MoonShadowWolfe Wow, are you fuckin high???

[MoonShadowWolfe]

@Skeleboto69 No, I just know what the fucking song is and who wrote it.

[jonathonpvaldez17]

@MoonShadowWolfe Dude you know the guy is this video is Jack Johnson and not the guy that put the video up right?? Im just wondering cause if you dont then you need to look up more songs if you do then sweet!!

[pirateunder40]

anyone has an idea where this was??

[w1nk52k10]

I love this song.

[SainttLunaticc]

8 people disliked this because they obviously had their computer turned upside down and thought the dislike was a like button..

[lbzta86]

Gorgeous voice and awesome playing skills! Would you mind messaging me the chords? I think I've pretty much got it from watching you, but I just want to make sure.  Thanks!!! :)

[TheGolfdog12]

Does anyone know what type of guitar this is? It doesn't look like a Cole Clark.

[justinjonkmanbcn]

@TheGolfdog12

Ee man Its a Martin i cant tell you for shure what model its i guess a D model...

Martin is the brand thats played by ben harper jon mayer dave matthews and eric clapton etc..

[FreshNYSk8r]

Great Song.. Nice lyrics.

[Martinatje]

[bluegrasssingingman]

I have this guitar it's a dx1r martin that list for 719.00. who the hell you think this guy is The great guitar player in the world Tony Rice. tell you the truth i never heard of Jack Johnson, he's no 10.000.00. i like to have what the hell your smoking lol...........

[zdigiovanni7]

I have that guitar too. It is one of my favorite guitars I've ever played on. Also Jack usualy uses a Cole Clark, or at least he did for many years. They are awesome guitars built in Austrailia. Jack is one of the best singer/songwriters of our era. He brings a brilliance that no one else can really compare to. Simply amazing.

[bcw015]

The guitar he's playing here is on ebay right now.

[101guitardude101]

dude that was amazing! the voice just topped it off..just wish i could sing like that :(

[snake5807]

What kinda Guitar is that? It looks like a Takamine! I want one sooo badly!

[JackJohnsonGuitarist]

its a Martin same Martin I had before my cole clark, I had the same but with cutaway, a Martin DCX1E...hope that helps...cheers

[Agar101]

jack almost always plays martins, this is one too - a DXR model probably

[SupremoHumberto]

Jack Johnson is actually a sponsored artist of an Australian company called Cole Clarke, and plays mostly their Fat Lady 2 Model, though he has been known to play Matin Martin and Tayler guitars too, and his 76 telecaster

[SonnyJoD]

Takamine is garbage...

[carlose0318]

its seems like he does it a little bit faster in this version....either way, he makes it sound great, thanks jack, i feel like im alive b/c of your music

[beorig]

Pimp.

[nightmea]

so good

[HuntingtonL0ve]

Jack Johnson really is the biggest inspiration for me to play guitar.

[kaylylyn]

@HuntingtonL0ve

Yes.

Together with Ben Harper and Jimmi Hendrix ;=)

[Martinatje]

I adore you jack johnson!

[j3dznuts]

anybody know the chords he starts strumming?.

[MonkeyPoofer]

i'm not sure exactly which chords he's strumming, but i think these would be good chords:

Chorus: E, G#m, A, B

Verse: E, B, A

[flander18]

amazing song

[goodfella428]

yea this is great prolly the best video on here

[j12n07]

so mellow...i want what hes on. Jack is my inspiration to life and music...best combo

[pbfoley]

Man that strumming is amazing

[JackJohnsonGuitarist]

doesnt mater how many times i watch this..it makes you wonder how someone this talented could make such a beuitiful song, i mean i play guitar and find it very hard to make a tune..this is such an amazingly put together, song..just wow! the kind of tune that sticks in your mind, the kind of song that memories are made of...enough said!

[JeffinAkron]

[xSeaside]

[izoisfresh]

great song. real fun to cover. not to hard but just right for me :D

[dpinsker]

Effortless.....

[rubyangel12]

jack johnson always rescues me with his absolutely unbelievable music.

i love him...

... SO MUCH !

[tjolmsy]

I just mastered the song on guitar like 15 mins ago.

Its hard.

Jack Johnsons music is amazing

[Jelluh2002]

so true, try Angel from his new album, also nice to play :)

[sarniafury6]

i love this song

i love jack

i love everything about this

absolutely amazing

[lolomixxxx]

I LOVE JACK JOHNSON

his music is great and his voice..........

=)))

he s the best

[chikoritachan]

1:06 best part!! =)

[tjolmies]

If it wasn't for Jack Johnson, I would never of had the inspiration to start writing music.

My voice is similar to his but since I am only 16, it still is not as full and rich as his voice. Fortunately I'm taking prvt vocal lessons. hopefully that will help.

[esteves91]

can you please tell me a website that has the acurate tab for the song that he is playing?thanks anyway

[Jelluh2002]

Google?

[esteves91]

there all wrong .they dont sound right

[Jelluh2002]

Or you just can't play guitar, ultimateguitar had more than 6 correct tabs.

[RealdredlockDave]

i want to know peoples takes on the line "driftwood floats after years of erosion"

yeh kno, all your different concepts and stuff

[chessazhole]

my favorite lines in the song

[pbfoley]

I see it as him viewing someone who has avoided the movements of everyone else and is now "floating" where others have gone elsewhere (eroded). Seems this song is talking a person who is a wishful thinker/rebellious person.

"looks who's crying now" He must have missed out on something. But what is it?

[RealdredlockDave]

i agree you cant dis other peoples tastes in music, but its hard to believe people actually hate Jack Johnson
