The Nightwatchman (Tom Morello) - "Alone Without You"

[elpistol100]

it was a great song for Sicko but i can see this being the theme for 50/50

[baracker1]

Sicko is pretty awesome as documentary film, but I'm shocked, how many people let them be manipulated with, and believe MM..

[baracker1]

@baracker1 I know, my english sucks

[AKArainkit]

@baracker1 Maybe because we know it's true?

[baracker1]

@AKArainkit Oh C'mon! Hes just a leftist liar. He uses only the information, which fit into his theories. He doesnt mention a lot of really important stuff in his movies. Health care in American health care system is one of the best in the whole world. I wish we could have it here in Czech Republic.

[MrSiDSaN]

styx`s boat on a river is another legend song with mandolin

[viewpoints7]

I was so moved when I saw the movie "SICKO." The movie and

the song is wonerful! viewpoints7

[sunnchilde]

This video makes me so incredibly angry. 

[WoodrowWaffles]

what a sad, yet amazing movie and a sad yet beautiful song...one of Tom Morrelo and Michael Moore"s best

[joshythehipster]

just watched sicko today. very good :')

[deee1971]

6 strings morello can play it amazing 8 strings morello can play it amazing 2000 strings morello can still play it any thing this man cant play??? :D

[StupidShinigami]

His voice reminds me of the singer from The Chillis!

[Uinb]

@StupidShinigami I was about to disagree with you saying the styles are completely different then i thought about it. Yeh, i can kind of hear it a little.

[itsdrpepper567]

kinda sounds like tom petty

[theunforgiven131]

Anyone know if this song for sale on iTunes or anything?

Love the Nightwatchman!

[Phllpsmary]

I love this song Tom...and I can't to see you live in New York City at The City Winery Sept.1st 2011! I can't believe I'm going to be sitting just a few seats away from you. Thankyou for doing these kind of small performances and giving your fans a chance to enjoy you and your beautiful music in such a friendly atmoshere. I'm going to be traveling all the way from southern Ohio just to see you perform! What a blessing! I also work for the St of OHIO and our UNION is in big trouble! Mary Phillips

[watchthiscityfall]

lol, Duh.. I guess I should have checked iww(dot)org didn't know they had a store..

[lukewill783]

Cant wait. November 2nd. Rise Against. Tom Morello...........Shit just got real

[xomyrsvidsxo]

@lukewill783 Nov 3rd for me:) so excited..

[kyostar08]

always hope where love is

[redwinger219]

I'm digging the Wobbly logo on his baseball cap.

[watchthiscityfall]

@redwinger219 IDK if he bought the hat as-is, or he put the patch on himself. But I would definitely like to find an IWW hat like that..

[jammzg]

So pumped that they'e supporting rise against on the UK tour :D

[GeorgVanHalen]

When I first heard about The Nightwatchman I thought like.. "what?". I enjoyed Rage Against The Machine AND Audioslave alot and yes, The Nightwatchman is great aswell! =)

[Textynn]

Health care by class in the fallen US, Elite gatekeepers decide who lives and dies. Unforgivable but true.

[SlowHandManLive]

genije!

[GreenLizard1000]

Он определенно играет его сердце.

[PARNISHONKA]

Супер, песня просто класс!!

[ZvonareeeeeV]

@PARNISHONKA мне тоже прикололась)

[xRaZ0r38]

I love the intro !

[phylisettinger]

LOVE THIS SONG :)

[PsychoKid47]

Mandolin is bad ass! If you want another cool mandolin video, look up Pork Chop's Little Ditty (Outro) by Primus. Tom Morello is a great musician, and without a doubt a great person.

[ihavebeer4breakfast]

@PsychoKid47 dont forget the battle of evermore by you should know who

[BurvilySershur]

tom could never write a bad song :D

[xai64]

@BurvilySershur he can do anything! but he'd have to try hella hard haha

[plasterdbastard]

@coperone2

Chris Cornell was never in Rage Against the Machine.

zagreeb was referring to Audioslave.

[coperone2]

@plasterdbastard Thanks. I know :)

[mb123tdt]

king of guitar!

[MartyFriedmanRulez66]

@mb123tdt AND mandolin :P

[MrSushh]

Dam..I really like this song....

[FrizzleFry117]

The best songs are always too short.

[wesselklooster]

nice, the mandolin is an epiphone and not even a gibson :-D

[TheLyinDutchman]

@wesselklooster

To be honest, i don't think there is anything wrong with Epiphone. I have an Epiphone Les Paul Custom and i think it's great!

[wesselklooster]

@TheLyinDutchman didnt i say 'nice'? and didnt i end the comment with :-D?

[TheLyinDutchman]

@wesselklooster

Oh god, i misread that.

Epic fail. >_<

[wesselklooster]

@TheLyinDutchman it's ok ;-) By the way, i have an Epi LP Studio and i love it :-)

[theragecompelsme]

@wesselklooster It is not the sword, but he who wields it.

[xxjoanrdxx]

tom rules!!!

[desertdemon1993]

His voice is AWESOME !!

[Willhouse1978]

Even without ATH, Tom rocks!

[PrescottValleyMan]

can't.... stop... listening to this song!!!!!!

[bbriiannz]

His voice is so rich, soft, and smoothing.

[12345678919251]

single payer now !!!!

[audecify]

as someone is uncovered due to a "pre-existing condition," I tried not to cry watching Sicko...then I heard this song. thanks, Tom.

[fierymrjingles]

@audecify i live in the uk i have nhs and i still find it hard 2 believe that the richest country in the world still wont help its sick , fuckin disgraceful , and they have the cheek to try n tell the rest of the world wat 2 do !

[DKingSoaD]

@fierymrjingles it sucks when we are fighting against our own government that conducts bio-warfare and trasmutations on our own citizens. tho do you hear that in the news from america? nope, just the rich get all the media here, the poor are left to suffer and fend for themselves while the rich get bailed out or get richer

[Brandon18valensi]

tom voyce is great!!

[nzephier]

tom on the mandolin, you can see the experience in his hands, the art, so beautiful. Tom is my idol, always and forever :D

[08Hellboy]

Just some more random information time!

Tom Morello is of Irish and Italian descent.

[TheEnviroFriend]

@08Hellboy he's also half kenyan. his father fought in the kenyan revolution that gave kenya its independance. and i'm sure tom is proud of his father fighting for freedom.

[caarlosize]

this song makes me cry

[steno87ify]

tom is GOD

[steno87ify]

tom is GOD

[JamestheKilljoy]

this video should have the 10's of millions of views all the stupid pop and kid music videos have, like lady crap and justin "hairy" beaver

[louielexus]

@JamestheKilljoy thats ok, only the few people that can appreciate a great artist and music should listen to this! I wouldn want the masses of ignorant people to play this anyways!

[6703445]

i only like it because of the song... Ya'll are stupid fucks if you actually believe everything in Michael Moore's film.

[dadoX1000]

@6703445 what is wrong in the movie?

[6703445]

@dadoX1000

Meaning.... other than Moore's blatant support for socialized healthcare and him glossing over facts to appeal to your better nature? I suggest you watch Super Size Me and make the connections yourself. A reason why a majority of Americans are sick fuckers, the reason why the percentage of sick people has gotten larger in America, is because of our eating habits and the foods we eat.... A change of diet and daily exercise will immediately solve the problem for many people.....

[jrleftfoot]

@6703445 thanks 4 your really intelligent input

[pixelpixie1]

I love this video, brilliant song! Keep'm coming Tom

[MrStevenLogan]

Michael Moore directed RATM's music video for "Testify"

[TheRagingCheese]

@MrStevenLogan Wasn't it Sleep Now in the Fire? Or did he do that one too?

[KeggersMcKeagney]

@MrStevenLogan I thought it was Sleep now in the Fire?

[TheF3R3RR0]

is a mandolin an 8 string ukelele

[tbizzleshizzle]

@TheF3R3RR0 no the two are tuned totally different. Mandolin (from low to high) - G D A E. Uke - g C E A

[CCRockit]

@TheF3R3RR0

No its an itallian instrument typically used in bluegrass, country, (sometimes) folk, and things along that line.

[Xenobiarch]

@CCRockit it's a damn mandolin : D invented somewhere along the 18th century if I'm correct, so it's 'typically' used in classical music not country -.- I believe that the bluegrass folk use another kind of 4 string lute variation (ie banjos, triolians, etc.), not an mandolin to be exact, can't get the name in my head right now though.

[CCRockit]

@Xenobiarch

I said sometimes XD

[Xenobiarch]

@CCRockit yeah I see what you did there now, I just read it like 'bluegrass, country and sometimes folk'. well more info can't hurt anyone, great song neverthless.

[stormrage1221]

MAN! this song reminds me of my girlfriend.

[OneTwoSnap]

Got my heart

[maplestoryspore76]

It made me cry because my first rabbit died on valentines day T~T It reminds me of him.. R.I.P NIBBLES

[johnqpublic912]

I am so fortunate to have seen RATM in their prime. God i hope they make a new album.

[uunoest]

Touched unbelievebly deep I have to say. So thats the big American Dream everybody is talking about??!!

[sarambo22]

B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L

[isigo]

Tom ate to leonard cohen, lol, But seriously, A great song

[TheGoodMan19]

Cool. Is that an IWW hat on Tom's head?

[MrNeoTokio]

GOOD SONG TwT !!!

[ArielAguayo]

haha Google's captions are highly inaccurate ^_^

[PizzaPusher2]

Very Springsteenish... Awesome!

[thelivingfire]

@PizzaPusher2 or lenord cohen

[wolfehzzareawsome]

this song explens life alot =p

[thelivingfire]

@wolfehzzareawsome or our bullshit healthcare system

[mypalsatan]

yeah its weird though because it has 8 strings but 2 are connected to each knob so it functions more like a 4 string instrument and is tuned GDAE

[frankrfroesejr]

@mypalsatan Each string has it's own tuning machine... 8 in all.

[crazyflame93]

I need this song.. is there any way to buy it? Did they release a soundtrack or something?

[TheJohnny990]

@crazyflame93 It's an itunes bonus track to the One man Revolution album

[mauricebidula]

just let be real and honest. understand the world we are living. if u dont want your song to be played for free...just dont publish it ... Tom want it to be played!

Play it loud m@#$%%^FCKERS

and keep the msg flowing

[kfitz9]

@niggerbutcher3. Music is not alone in the downloading sector, Movies, Tv shows and Video Gaqmes and Computer software is also very easy to acquire

And this song was a limited edition extra to the 'one man revolution' album on itunes. Its not available anymore. What i did was used 'atube catcher' changed the output file type to mp3 and downloaded it.

[1111Sth]

Not fussed either way. As long as the site is safe I' m not that bothered if there's nowere to buy it!

[1111Sth]

Would anyone be able to give me a link where I could buy this song?

Many thanks.

[clipedwingangel]

its still strange to see this video but i am grateful he wrote the song and we have video of the kids first visit to Ground Zero

Reggie Cervantes

[BucketheadfeatSlash]

Wat's SiCKO?

[clipedwingangel]

Its the Michael Moore documentary on Health Care which was nominated for an Oscar. It contains images shown in this video.

[BucketheadfeatSlash]

thank you man

[crazyflame93]

Does anyone know where I can get this song? Can´t find it anywhere... :S

[anormanthedude]

this guy's my idol XD

[JakeRipperguitar19]

such a soothing song hey

[annapuiu]

nice song!

[LITTLETONBBALLA14]

tomm kicks ass

[chiavaio]

@Heraltodus

At first I thought it was Bruce Springsteen and then it did remind me of Knopfler: both the voice at points and the volume swells.

[SCROTUMvalueMEAL]

what does watching an american carol prove? it's a painfully unfunny and poorly made movie that sadly demonstrates the very same generalizing, blind bias and childish name-calling by the right that the film purports the left as possessing/doing/being. by dehumanizing those they disagree with, the creators only perpetuate the idea that the right is out of touch. if u think that blatantly spiteful and shoddy piece of cinema is literal proof of michael moore's idiocy, u've got a lot to learn. end.

[FreefromIllusion]

The song and the movie make me want to cry. Either America needs die or go through the second American Revolution. I don't think either will happen America will just go on existing to brain-washed to actually contribute and to greedy and underhanded to be trusted.

[wavelength121]

And by "America" you mean the 4% who control all the wealth and aim to keep it through the oppression of the masses.

[CCRockit]

@wavelength121

Bingo

[eifen1]

tom morello is # 1 XD

[realsceptic]

I never knew they made mandolins this fancy <3

Great song from a great movie

[Heraltodus]

I absolutely love this song. Also, I wonder if anyone was reminded of Mark Knopfler (singer + guitarist from Dire Straits) by Morello's way of singing?

[jani972]

the video is parts of michael moores fiilm "sicko"

great film, watch it!

[cristianbam]

a-fucking-mazing

[BrunoTenshi]

This strange 8-strings guitar is a Mandolin \o/

[896748rhjbasgjjgankl]

@BrunoTenshi lol. if they needed that explained they need to lrn2 folk

[Avalaxy]

Strange guitar... 8 strings?

I know 6-sring, 7-string and 12-string guitars but I've never seen a 8-string.

[1q1q42]

well it is special

[guitarmaster35]

That would be a madolin. lol

[CCRockit]

@Avalaxy

That would be a mandolin XD its and italian instrument with typically high pitched sound

[qwertykilqwerty]

that guitar thingie is SMALL!!

[nebel50]

its a mandolin

[CCRockit]

@qwertykilqwerty

Its a mandolin XD its an italian eight stringed instrument known for high pitched sounds if you can master it i'm sure you'll love it

[jonathanburr89]

it annoys me he aint realised this on an album!

[xtremelygoodlookin]

Tom Morello=freakin' genius with a guitar!

[LACITYDABOSS]

im mostly into hip hop but damn this song is dope

[beatEFX]

if you like hip hop. check out immortal technique. he is awesome. his lyrics are great.

[ktrel54]

I think he sounds exactly like Bob Dylan. They talk about the same things as well

[jpdidit]

He does great with acoustic strings instruments, but I was quite disappointed, despite how good is acoustic guitar skills are, that he wasn't playing his crazy pedal/killswitch style.

[burnswithnoflame]

never thought id see tommy playing a mandolin...

but i still love it!

[Adonis8vernalis]

alles geniale Songs, aber dieser ist besonders schön

[egghum]

I can't express how much I like this song

[TheBronzeKing]

I wish this song was on one of his albums, it is fantastic! If there was only one artist I could choose to support, he would be my first pick.

[laganas2008]

Sick of deciding who gets what in my will......brilliant lyrics!

[sguissardi]

Great music, great lyrics, great musician! (Excelente música, excelente letra, grande músico)

[runinasics]

Great song to go with a great movie.

[Punkr3as]

The sound of him I flashed on a cold winter night .. I did not know who Tom was, I did not know the existence of RATM but now ... now I want to discover its history!

I'm Italian ...

[schizzeling]

tom morello is the shit

[justdave1969]

Every song I hear from The Night Watchman is better and better...I have never been a RATM fan or Tom Morello fan because it is just to heavy for an old guy like me...But now I have Tremendous respect and admiration For Tom Morello as a songwriter and musician. He has shown a versatallity that is so lacking in todays music. Tom Morello could be the next Bob Dylan if he keeps this up. Awesome Stuff!

[richymoore]

I actually avoided the Dylan comment earlier because I've seen the bullshit that fanatics start when you compare anyone to Dylan but I totally agree with you there, but what I would suggest even if you are not into the music of Rage Against The Machine is to simply read some lyrics, Zack De La Rocha is also on poetic par with the likes of Dylan and Roger Waters etc, they should actually incorporate themselves into the lyrics of one of thier own songs Renegades of Funk, geniuses

[IndieExplorer]

dude renegades of funk is a cover.

[richymoore]

Yeah I know, the origional was Soul Sonic Force or something like that ? I knew I would get that reply as soon as I posted that comment lol. Its one of these covers that is more recognisable as a Rage tune if you know what I mean

[tonytitan94]

sounds so country for some reason...

guess i betta learn more bout him....

[Punkr3as]

Dire fantaastico è poco......

[420smokeymcpot]

fuck off micheal

[jackkoslov]

For somebody like me... that has always been with Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave.... it's strange to hear Tom singin... but good as always!

[PurplePogable]

Does anyone what the guitar he uses in the beginning of the video is?

[ryoon666]

It is a mandolin.

[Altair0999]

mandolin.

[TheAnnaBlanco]

can someone write the words of this song plz

[Punkr3as]

Ohhhhhhh.....it's 1st time that I listen this song!!!

Wow...but is it in Fabled City=??

[ryoon666]

No, One Man Revolution. I believe it is a bonus track.

[Miamidfinsfan1326]

Its not in one man revolution :( I know from Experience man I need all his albums

[DragonSniper7]

I h8 when they use the argument you have to wait to be treated. But you know, i'd rather wait a week for treatment then not get it at all. So many flaws in this country besides is health care system... very backward nation....

[michaelssm]

I'm leaving this country , which I was born in and lived in for almost 60 years.....and returning to civilization..which is somewhere else..I'm leaving the "ME" society , for the "WE" societies.

[chucknorrisgawd]

this song reminds me of how fucked up our country is...hopefully the healthcare system gets fixed soon...altho obama's plan doesnt look like it's going to solve anything...more of the same

[uzbec911]

It might, but it won't get passed.

The propoganda bullshit being spread by the fascists at Fox News and the fuckbags in Congress is starting to register with the American people. Most of them believe it.

Whenever a politician tries to do some good, it always has to be killed. Fuck me

[Tiryon]

Am i the only one who is constantly reminded of mark knofplers last albums when listening to this song?

Great song nevertheless ;)

[WRX2001]

America are more concerned on what happens in other Countries than looking after their own citizens.

[bennuat]

that's because USA are the first power of the world (for the moment), they must be concerned on what happens in other countries...but now it will be change.

[intergalactic12]

I wouldnt say they are more concerned with the events that happen in other countries because quite franctly I don't think they give a shit to be honest, this is the Government an enterprises we are talking about. Its more because of the economic instabilities, stupidity and flaws of the American economic system that this is happening to their citizens, not because they care about whats happening in other countries.

[DragonSniper7]

hehe technically the U.S is no longer THE world power, although it still likes to delude itself it is :D.

[AvmanM]

I am in love with this song.

[reynaerica]

yeah tom is deep thats what makes him

a good musician

[whatwatwatwhat]

The songs on "One Man Revolution" are much better then this.

[alabastersmom]

I love that album, but this song is beautiful and the mandolin absolutely gorgeous.  I wouldn't say they are better, just different.
