JET Performs She's a Genius on the Late Show with David Letterman

[eerieshor]

The beginning of this reminded me of The Knack's 'My Sharona".

[silverdiane]

Rock n' Roll saviors...

[andrew031060]

saw em live with powderfinger....effing brilliant!!! thanks Kids, great 50th b/day party for yur dadda!

[MrMattRocker]

This is rock and roll. These guys are one of the few real rock and bands to come out in the last 10 years.

[Warmfortheform]

as if the riff was a rip off hahaha wow people really have no idea about the concepts of music when they open their mouths.

[robxnj83]

Any band with a lead singer that has a British accent that does Rock N Roll is accused of copying The Beatles.

JET is a wonderfully unique, talented band in the world of crap music nowadays. Get over yourselves and learn a thing or two about good music.

[palictation]

@robxnj83 He's Australian , with an Australian accent . There not accused of copying there accused of being the next Beatles , so i think YOU should learn a thing or two about "Good music " .

[robxnj83]

@palictation Hey idiot... I know that. But Australia and Britain have strong ties in dialect and people often get that confused as you can see by the comments that compare them to the Beatles of all the time!!

[palictation]

@robxnj83 Your the idiot , He doesnt have an British accent , obversely you havent met a pom !

[loud0sho]

More hard I guess

[Guesswhat4321]

Like it or not ... " The Next Beatles "

[classicbritpop]

shock a rock.....gay

[johanneswni]

@classicbritpop it's called Shaka Rock

[LennonRealLove]

I've seen these guys live 3 times and everytime they were so great that I would see them live over and over again. I love Jet :)

[Gfw36026]

so much leather! AWSOME!!!!

[Baronsfsdf]

Look at your self be a man with Asian lady *lushfmlk.info*

[heojeongho]

good voice

[KillBaddBugz]

Jet has no need to "wannabe Beatles"...they're JET!!! and that's enough!!

That's just silly...they are who they are -plain and simple rock and roll; GREAT LIVE!

[bluefirered1]

Beatle wantobe`s

[nzoasisfan]

good writers borrow, the best writers eg jet steal

[galvanium]

The feature of this song is the lead guitar work - combined with tight rythms and vocals. Nothing earth shattering but real catchy. It does this for me like Sharona does not.

[revolversmoke]

Jet is awesome!

[rorcy18]

ino the bass my dads friends son there from my home town in australia, australia has the best music

[MetalMilan]

@rorcy18 acdc..

nuff said.

[nitewolf979x]

wow that was an amazing performance..his voice was perfect =]

[TheTrippinhard]

lol in a part of the song he's meant to say "hey there girl come on over and sit, love is when you wanna kiss and you get bit", but he says boy instead.

LOL

[INSTINCTrock2009]

@TheTrippinhard um no the lyrics is actually

hey there boy lol

nce try tho

check the cover out on my page

thanx nick

[npfield]

wow he looks a bit like john lennon when hes singing and his stance and everything

[ChuckaTanti]

1:21. That is soome Kickass Tambourining

[Rimber6]

Oh nice, douchebaghair

[slap690]

Man they sound so tight here. Love it

[cchavez1000able]

its kind of funny when he say {tell me what do u doo}}} like alll speed up

[acotw67]

JET is an excellent band.

For some reason they remind me of The Ramones or Iggy Pop.

[Tosswallyproductions]

10/10 no competition. Gotta love JET

[thompillay]

there from my country

[shitisdog]

Awesome

[baseballman9897]

the drummer scares me.....

[09livvy09]

@baseballman9897 he's heaps mad!! in a good way..

[Galbatorix99]

Yeah, he needs more Expression n' to feel the music more.

[Wibergot]

i think the lead guitarist looks like an idiot because hes not moving like the bassist...

[09livvy09]

@Wibergot mark (the bassist) is always passionate and intense in his playing, whereas cam (the lead guitarist) is more quiet and possibly shy..but sometimes in his solos cam really gets into it.

[kdavis0660]

their bass player looks like an idiot. hes probably plucking 2 strings and hes dancing and moving all over the place like hes playing some amazing solo lol

[nimrodnimrod01]

Please check my cover of that song!!!! :D

[billy959]

these guys are great! there bringing back classic rock u dnt hear this kinda syuff too much these days there like a mix of ac/dc and the beatles...its perfect

[officialtomflash]

@billy959 if you like Jet, check out our music! We're heavily influenced by these guys

[megayahabibi]

sounds a little bit too much like The Knack's "my Sharona"

[nimrodnimrod01]

@megayahabibi I'd say that songs like Frustrated and My Shrona have lots of elemnts that you can find on Jet's performing.

[kdavis0660]

rock has been played for decades. eventually songs are going to cross. its not like they sat down and listened to The Knacks and said "hmm i can remake this song"

[4runner39]

these guys rock!!!!

[HandresR]

Wow!!!!!!!!!!

[BrodinBrothers22]

I did not even know they were Australian!

Almost every band I like comes from Australia! Airbourne, AC/DC, JET.

[ARedMoonStudio]

Sick Puppies, ever tried them? They're great too.

[oscarlarsen]

@BrodinBrothers22

you forgot Wolfmother ;)

[BrodinBrothers22]

See! Everyone is from Australia!

[icky5000]

Fuckin coolest bass riff

[DavisDogg6969]

Fuk yer go aussie rock take that yanks

[staniaRAWR]

they are genious!!!!!!!!

[Chickofmanywonders]

i LOVE Jet

[95keeton]

i actually fucking love chris' drum sound

[kooldog98]

the lead singers looks like the guy from road trip brecken meyer

[Marz2605]

not really...

[kooldog98]

this clip makes me wanna buy a new leather jacket. theyre all wearing one

[ChemmCool]

they are great live :)

[bea30tl42]

That's an excellent live band. Especially the lead singer and the backing vocalist drummer. These guys really have talent at song writing. I personally don't think that riff is a rip off from "My Sharona" by The Knack. That would be as like saying "Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones was stolen from "DayTripper" by The Beatles...

[LedZeppelin827]

@bea30tl42 i agree dude, i mean its really just the main riff that kinda sorta resembles my sharona but the rest of the song sounds nothing like it, i mean all of the latre 60's legends wrote a song at one point or another that sounds like a song that was written before it

[bea30tl42]

@LedZeppelin827 What you say is very true about the 60s legends. Thanks.

[CarlMrCarl]

@bea30tl42 AYGBMG is one of my favourite songs ever; if You listen to "lust for life" by Iggy Pop... you´ll know where this song came from, even in the lyrics. Cheers!

[Diddymusicrecords]

i know

[Marz2605]

yea your live versions are usually better

[kimowasabe]

are the all wearing the same cliched rock leathers?

Riff is such a shitty rip off of my Sharona ---great song to listen to instead of this retread boring crap

[Connojack]

Oh and that stupid song by Rogue Traders isn't or anything.

[jeminiany222]

would love to see these boys live

[thedevilssympathy]

ITS unbelievealbe lol awsome stuff

[keyuo]

Out of all the songs i can find from jet this is probely my favorate song XD

[TeeKiero143]

how many songs did they play here?

[mkrgolf]

Hey there, girl!

[SRJ2709]

Nic Cester is an awesome vocalist. Love the rough voice. JET in general is amazing though : )

[jethronius22]

Didn't know that there was that much baby sitting money being passed around. My Sherona! Fags.

[crookedpreacher]

[minicliptube]

His cool. that it really.

[Metalstrix]

[Nevermind900426]

Jet ruleeeeeeeees

[vicfirth97]

needs a longer solo live

[BrianFontez]

It's funny cause this sounds 10 times better than the album version.

On the album it was WAYYYY too fast and wasn't recorded very well.

[muttville1]

[tristo182000]

[GamblingMachina]

[dippaandyomama]

[brtn181]

[justbull91]

john is still alive! he's so similar..

[pimpcardboardbox]

That's what I always thought too!!!

[RyanRotten80]

bit slow, yet good.

[mmaguy34]

lead singer doesnt look like john lennon at all

[SGmegariffz]

sound really tight live... deeply impressed.

[Thesp88]

YOOO !! THEY FUCKING KILLED IT !! Man they're so good live ! Yo this was better than studio version !

[BrianFontez]

I agree completely !! I've always been a little worried about their live performances but this and Black Hearts on Jimmy Fallon were fuckin TIGHT AS HELLLLL.

[ludwigking]

I have loved this band since tehy started. Can believe how much the lead singer looks like John Lennon.

[patnamuzikman]
