Amazing F-ing performance. I've been a Counting Crows fan for many years and have seen many live performances.
Not once have I ever witnessed a performance like this.I almost feel cheated(Thanks Adam).
The fact that you can silence tens of thousands of people,having them hang on your every word(as seeen in minutes 5 thur 7) is freakin awesome. Great job love the Crows keep on rockin!!!!!!!!
In my opinion this is the greatest performance of one of the greatest songs ever written. It's a shame most of this generation will go without hearing bands like counting crows, dave matthews band and the other 90's groups that have had such a huge impact on my life.
@abnmnmk Well said, my friend. 90's had GREAT music on the radio. What. In. The. World. Happened? Autotune? Probably. Radio is terrible now. We've went downhill as a society in our musical taste. Shame.
(Ps. I'm 18. Barely caught that nineties music and I still cling to it liike it were the best thing to happen to my life.)
I don't think I've ever seen a performance that was as much about *acting* out the lyrics as it was about singing them. And I don't mean that in an "it's all an act" kind of way, I just mean that Adam Duritz isn't just singing lyrics, he's telling a story and believing every single part of it. Every word is as important as the one preceding it.
For sure is a really good song.... im passing by one of the worst moments of my life.... and this song helps me to think how to work it out.... should i get a gun ant put in my mouth... or keep trying?...... like Adam sings... "She said she was thinking of jumping..." i dont have a high buildings close...... sry about what i wrote.....
@adamnewton42 Adam has clearly stated his belief that melody is far more important than lyrics. The Crows are a group of truly fine musicians, and they always function as one. Part of what makes them so oustanding is that Adam is so emotionally powerful and yet never masks the other musicians. His "monologues" bring tears to my eyes along with every other aspect of this song.
@Greg2162 They are talented, but Andy Hull has a long way to go before he writes songs nearly as prolific as Duritz, and CC is one of the tightest bands ever. Man Orch are mostly Hull's sidemen, and they don't improvise like CC. Still, Im Like a Virgin Losing a Child is a great album, not as high on the newer one.
@theatlantisrise You maybe right, I'm addicted to listening to all the different versions of shake it out, I'm canadian myself and I fear manchester orchestra will not get famous enough for a canadian tour, did you see the 1998 pinkpop version of this song, it's here on youtube
@Greg2162 I should have implied something completely different--Manchester Orchestra has WAY more marketability than CC. They cater to a much younger audience. Im surprised Man Orch doesnt play more in Canada, seems like they'd have a good fanbase up there. CC is a rare case of a group that sells lots of records and songs ("Mr. Jones" and "Accidentally in Love" have both charted top 5), but as far as seeing them live they have a very cult aspect to them, a lot like DMB but on a smaller scale.
@theatlantisrise I don't think America will market Andy Hull, come on he's better than pop,, I tell you someone else to check out ,Jimmy Gnecco, he's dirt poor, not marketed at all, amazing voice
@Greg2162 I thought about it , you maybe right, they maybe for a younger crowd , But a university band, college students, much like the way TOOL started,their lyrical content may be too offensive for a wider fan base
Just want to say to all the people that are hating many many many artists look up to that man and wish and try to be that comfortable with their songs and band to do that. you just saw one of the greatest performances in history
This version is amazing considering it's live. Most artists have a hard time transitioning from a studio sound to a performance. Sure, it's not the same but it makes so much sense and adds so much emotion to it. It's everything the singer meant for it to be. At least respect the song. If you like the studio version then search for it.
This performance sucked dick I used to love this song now every video I watch of it is horrible for all you people that like this version there's a version out there that would make you shit your pants
@adamnewton42 And youtube isn't the fucking adamnewton show? so shut the fuck up and listen to the song if you don't like it or don't respect adam duritz you don't respect the counting crows.
@carlosdiazphotos now there are 22.. and that number will never cease to grow. The least we could do is hope that for elevation.. The likes bar will increase 100-fold. ;)
Man, I can't get over that part where the tune changes at 7:34. I've even forgot this part of the song because this live performance is just so phenomenal. I've seriously listened to this for the 5th time in a row.
please guys dont put dislikes. i recenlty had to sing it solo at a school concert and it was fucking hard to sing so just watch anonter video if you do not like that ok?
note till the last minute i wass thinking to tell ''were all fucking tired of somethin'' and ya know somethin? i said it and i had a huge aplausse so please.
@96ryanfrancis not sure it's as good as the versions from the MTV/VH1 double album, but its the next best one I've found after a long time of looking for another good version!
I refuse to believe Maria is fictional, the evolvement of the lyrics can't just be his own suffering reflecting over his own life, there has to be heartache!
@336forlife Yeah I know, that's what I can get out from it, but all I'm saying is that it's his word against the interperator and he maybe doesn't want people to know. Just speculation though.
I really do think that this is a classic example of a band getting bored of their songs. I love this song and I think they really peaked in performing it on the New York album. Both versions on that album were amazing. This version, is not. Adam is over-doing the vocal changes and the band are doing their own thing. Sorry guys, I love you but I don't love this.
I've been reconnecting with Counting Crows for the first time in years. It's been nice. This might be the best version of any of their songs that I've come across. I love how natural and organic the tangents feel. I caught them live once in Vegas and it was an awful show and I left seriously disappointed since I knew that they could also perform like this. Oh well.
Any body else notice Tony Hawk and David Hasselhoff in the crowd 10 seconds apart from each other? Ha!
I hope this one never gets deleted on youtube.... this should be free forever, for all generations, all people whether they live in peru, italy or china.... It simply shows that people walk the path of emotions every day, in any minute, at any place in this world. "Will you remember about me?" - This line is magic, because 5 words express, what everybody is afraid before he´s gone forever to a place nobody knows. Thx for posting.
How in the he'll do you not like this?? There's only one explanation, those people like the shitty pop bands on the radio today. People that think evenged sevenfold is a good band.
This is fucking amazing, i know not one singer who puts this much emotion and feeling in his songs.. it is just so fucking good, i do not have words for it
Ahhh, my favorite band. So good in fact that at times of my life when I feel depressed, the music, lyrics and use of piano and guitar, make me slow down, breathe, and understand my feelings, something i have trouble doin bein a man.. But this music lets down my barrier, and consumes my negativity, into positive believing.
I'm not going to call Adam Duritz an amazing singer, but he does deliver with emotion. I think people also take for granted the actual band, a lot of the beauty in this version is the instrumentation.
Duritz can sing, as he does in the studio(I like to assume), but he's more an entertainer, a story teller. Not all people dig that.
A fine example of it being a bit over the top is 2:10-2:30, other random parts
A fine example of the power he has, and beautiful instrumentation 4:00-end
if this song doesn't touch you in deep places you would never admit you simply have no heart or soul. just the epitome of immaculately brilliant poetry.
"but we're all fucking tired of something" I love how he sings like a conversation in his live performances, he can change the meaning of some of the verses just by the way he delivers it. Incredible is an understatement of this...
@yoogoplop Hmm I think it ruins the song sometimes for the most part this performance was OK but he destroyed it in a few parts like he was some butcher and ''Round Here'' was a slap of meat, I for one hate him doing the convo singing. I've come to the conclusion its because he is a attention whore and wnts to be the only one singing. Dont get me wrong i love adam duritz and counting but i will take the album version over any of the live versions.
@yoogoplop I totally agree- I love when he sings Mr. Jones and he says "Sometimes that's just about as fucked up as you can be" and also when he sings "we all wanna be big big big big star and we get so fucked up about that". I love love love it. This is one of the best Round Here performances I've seen
@yoogoplop He has performed this song hundreds if not thousands of times live. Every performance was different. This guy is special and I love him for saving my life with his lyrics.
when i saw the girl at 7:43 i recognized that i was sitting in front of my computer the same way not believin´ it. best performance ever. wish i had been there.

Right now I think I might be able to like Frightened Rabbit...they are a bit like CC you should check them out. But in general Van Morrison is just about everything I need. Anyway, what do you suggest?

"but we're all fucking tired of something" I love how he sings like a conversation in his live performances, he can change the meaning of some of the verses just by the way he delivers it. Incredible is an understatement of this...

@yoogoplop Hmm I think it ruins the song sometimes for the most part this performance was OK but he destroyed it in a few parts like he was some butcher and ''Round Here'' was a slap of meat, I for one hate him doing the convo singing. I've come to the conclusion its because he is a attention whore and wnts to be the only one singing. Dont get me wrong i love adam duritz and counting but i will take the album version over any of the live versions.

@yoogoplop I totally agree- I love when he sings Mr. Jones and he says "Sometimes that's just about as fucked up as you can be" and also when he sings "we all wanna be big big big big star and we get so fucked up about that". I love love love it. This is one of the best Round Here performances I've seen

@yoogoplop He has performed this song hundreds if not thousands of times live. Every performance was different. This guy is special and I love him for saving my life with his lyrics.

One of the best live bands. Not many songs are written that tell a story you can relate to like Counting Crows. Inspirational!

That could have well been the greatest 9:53 of my life. I am truly a better person after watching this.

If you don't have a good set of headphones... get some, plug them in, press play, close your eyes, get lost, and enjoy.

Right now I think I might be able to like Frightened Rabbit...they are a bit like CC you should check them out. But in general Van Morrison is just about everything I need. Anyway, what do you suggest?

@nintendoneil I know, probably the least appropriate laughing I've ever heard.

@nintendoneil Shit fucking PISSED ME OFF. The way he delivers it is so real, and some drunk chick is like HAHAHAHAH HE JUST SAID IT SO WEIRD DATS FUNNEYYYY.
Fuck you, half drunk chick. Fuck you very much.
