I've been to one of his concerts when I was young. It was the best concert I've EVER been to. He and his crew is AMAZING live!!! :D Them playing this song was the best part... their encore! <3
They look very young to me on this video? lol EPIC music , i love his passion in music, and the tune to all songs, just awesome... i dont know the story of why the band broke up, any1 wanna comment and tell me? :)
@dylanvanessen The band itself still exists, but John replaced the dummer & bass player. He said it was for 'purely artistic reasons' and that he wanted to try out a new band and see what kind of music they could make. Unfortunately their new album is very pop :(
brilliant, world class musicians at their best, look at look of respect and admiration the bass player gives john at .37, has this band ever played in canada, id be first in line, enjoy, this is what live music is all about.
How does he sing like that live? It is absolutely amazing! In year 3 we used to sing this song in music, and this is why! John has such an original voice! Thanks, Ototoro0 for putting this online!
this is a band where you can see that they really got fun on the stage... compared to some bands who end the concert with a comment how worse the audience was etc...
I can be rich like a wandering gypsey and i can be poor like a fat wallet lost, what awesome lyrics, nothing richer than freedom and a lost wallet,,man dont that make ya feel poor,,,Pete
I just heard of this guy, and I love him. This song, at least. Haven't heard so much of him (them?), but if it all is the same quality as this, then I'm in love.
nah the bassist is probably the most talented in the band, hes played in orchestras and if you want to see a master at work check out his solo on better man... so musical. John is great dont get me wrong but enough of wat he does on the guitar is simply noise.
@oewinnie haha ive been listening to john butler for over 8 years and ive seen ocean live twice. I do love that piece but it doesn't explore and is more a technical piece in my opinion than anything but i do love it. it doesnt have any interesting changes or anything... if you wanna hear an amazing guitarist check out the song sunny by pat martino make sure its the 1972 version, there are two on youtube
Just recently got into John Butler and I can't believe I never heard of him before now. This guy is amazing. This is one of my favorite songs. I also LOVE his cover of Get Up Stand Up.
The thrill I get from the experience of these talented artists is over the top! I was lucky to see you three in Santa Rosa, Ca, for free, at the KRSH backyard concert. I was high for weeks from the performance! Ahhhhhhhsum!
U all know the jbt reformed de you ? Only john butler is still in the band all othere members have been switched. They did it for artistick reasons ( john butler had a writers block ).
won the best songs ever love it:)
