  • I used to think Mayer was the best, but Lang is changing my opinion.

  • jonny lang!! john mayers actually a great musician, thats why you dont hear bout him much anymore. Today its actors and actresses playin the part of what business executives think musicians should look like.

  • Pffff... marry me.

    

  • why do you talk about john mayer???

  • @karenZmusic Cos he's a blues/rock singer like Jonny Lang.

  • 15 people are completely out of there minds.....

    

  • @Bluto353

    make that 16 from today's count :(

    people need to quit looking at his age and look at the pure soul and talent he puts forth on that stage. I've been to hundreds of shows from blues to metal and none of them will ever beet the feeling I had when walking out of the first Jonny Lang show I saw.

  • @Cyberthrasher706 His age??!! I want to hear someone...anyone...tell me when you hear "Lie to me" with your eyes closed, that voice and the playing is done by a 16 year old....age shouldn't matter when you hear something like that....your right people should stop. if that is what they are basing his music on....

  • wow.....!!!!!!!!

    

  • wow... this guy is blowing my MIND!!!!

  • reminds me a bit of people get ready.

  • i will sum it up for you johnny lang is awsome.

  • how many times can you watch this before you get tired of it? i've been listening all night and still can't get enough!

  • I thought he was a black 90s Blues Musician when I first heard him. I'm proud of this man.

  • looks like John Mayer ripped this song off in the verses of 'waitin on the world to change"

  • I just love him so much. I swear when I hear this song, or anyhing Johnny sings, I just want crawl inside of him and suck some of his talent up for mysefl. He is amazing live and on album and he's beautiful. Beautiful soul.

  • This guy is DAMN GOOD!

  • Sure wish he'd come to Australia!!!

  • I saw johnny lang when he was 14 at a warehouse in austin, what a great show.phish505

  • Hi, I'm a BIG fan of Johnny Lang. I'm also an Aussie soul/blues singer working mostly acoustic shows now, and hope you enjoy what I do. Looking forward to a Johnny Lang CD .Best wishes - John

  • İ DONT GET THİS.SO ORDİNARY BEGİNNİNG

  • saw him live..he is fantastic!

  • God I love him. He is so awesome and talented.

  • Jonny Lang is a true talent. and this song Give Me Up Again is one of his best. I first saw him play this on the Crossroads sessions which was equally inspiring. Keep rocking Jonny, you're a living treasure.

  • I have carried his cd;s and listened to them when I needed to wind down in Iraq and Afghanistan his talent is not learned it was truly a blessing from God love to watch and hear him play

  • @5110daisy way to go Daisy!!

  • @5110daisy I knew you and I had something in common!! We're the same age, and have grandkids. I first heard Jonny on the radio about 10 yrs ago, and I was hooked immediately. His music is intoxicating!

  • Voice of an angel. A brutal sounding angel though...

  • LOVE IT

  • Waw, this song is amazing....

  • ....**3:01**.....

    you tube doesn't do him justice...he is awesome LIVE...time & time again!

  • Telecasters with Humbuckers... gorgeous!

  • Cătă ...

  • Love Jonny! Beautiful song. Unique and awesome voice.

  • Love Jonny! Beautiful song. Unique and awesome voice.

  • What a voice!

  • Still gives me goose bumps--Sexy Innocence at it's BEST

  • When is Jonny  going to get better managment?? He is amazing! and he should be blown up huge!! I've been following his career since he has been 16! Mr. Lang should be internationally famous by now!

  • @shelayne4 I agree, but he doesn't need to be world famous. He does what he loves and asks for nothing more. For that in itself, he deserves much more.

  • @shelayne4 There is a lot of people who apreciates his music here in Brazil...

  • Jonny Lang is incredible.

  • this song speaks to my heart & soul....not sure how much more i can take. don't wanna go home, just wanna listen to this man singin the blues. thanks, jonny :-{

  • Mind-blowing talent.

  • Just got tuned on to him again after many, many years...he is just amazing! Thanks so much for posting this up. There is talent, and then there is TALENT. This guy has TALENT PLUS!!! Wow!

  • The first time I heard him was in Blues Brothers 2000 with Wilson Pickett. As soon as i heard his guitar solo and his voice I was like "...Holy Shit!" hahah I had to look up his songs on LimeWire and found great blues stuff such as this, Breakin' me, and A Quitter Never Ends...such a great guitarist and singer

  • ich hör eigentlich nur punk-rock aber das lied is auch cool xD

  • Hes very good and if you have not seen him live you need too.

    He is a very nice person.

  • @pshaw61 i worked backstage at his show the other day and he seemed kinda like a prick....i dont know if it was because his manager was a douche or what but i didnt get a good vibe from him...very talented though!

  • @davyd19 Not sure why but I know we all have bad days and maybe it was his.

    Anyway he is very good. Bummer man.Hope the next time you see him it gos better.

  • So funny you said John Mayer.. I did too.. i remember Ironing clothes in 1998 the first time I heard him.

    funny , I remember that?? No Racist remark intended.. I thought he was an older Colored man. He was 17!!!!

    I bought the CD... NEXT DAY.

    Still wonder about him. BEST VOCAL/ Artist to this day!!!

    Tonight I was thinking of one of his songs and I am so Thankful to Youtube!~

    My whole FB wall is Langafied!!

  • I have watched this 1,000 times in the last week! God, he is so AMAZING. Can't you just feel it? I do!

  • john mayer is more of a alternative pop artist than a blues man johnny all blues all the time ill take the blues with johnnys felling

  • If you like this then you will SLove (super love) Robert Randolph! Check out Robert and his newest CD that came out just a couple weeks ago!! When Robert shreds on the pedal steel guitar, you can’t help but feel the music run through your body! Be sure to check him out at (his name) dot net. You will be able to get a free track when you visit him on his sight! WoOt WoOt!!

  • effing hot love it

  • Man, I remember seeing him perform on some Disney special when he was 14. I couldn't believe the talent, and the solos from this acne-faced kid. His backing band rocked! His voice was bluesy and full even back then. He appeared with LeeAnn Rhimes, who was only 11 - you knew they both were going to shine.

  • I Love Jonny!

  • are you shitting me with the comparision to John Mayer, he isn;t good enough to blow Jonny!

  • Great vibe and playing - One of the rare new blues guys that actually plays with some soul.Inspiring

  • This is stellar!

  • What??? Jonny Lang is no John Mayer wanna-be!  He's an inspiration for many. Someone that we all look to for the go-getting mode and frame of mind. He's freakin' cool. What a GREAT sound! Light years ahead of his time. No comparisons. This dude broke the scene like 10 years+ ago. Freakin' A. What a talent! Beyond comprehesion.

  • Not of this world. Amazing, freakin' amazing! On a higher plane. That's all there is to it. All I can do is listen and appreciate and shake my head in disbelief...that we, the Nation, isn't laying down our arms to this. Hail Jonny Lang and the American Spirit! 1776 man. Freakin' A!!!

  • Wow! My favorite tune on the first Crossroads Guitar Festival DVD. One of the young artists that will carry the torch after Eric Clapton is gone.

  • is there really true love?

  • ya Jonny Lang totally kicks ass!

  • Rad for sure!!

  • I have all of Jonny's music.And it's ALL good!

  • cant wait to hear him on Cyndi Laupers new Memphis Blues cd!!!!

  • wow it sounds like John Mayer, maybe they should team up

  • srv clone

  • WOW!!beautiful song...he is a great singer!! i love his voice...very unique and sssoooouuuullllfull!! great performer also!!

  • God, I never fail to be astounded by Jonny......such talent...so young....please never leave us Jonny!

  • Mayer isn't even close to this guy... stop smokin so much weed

  • In my opinion,there isn`t to many guys out there that have that real heart`n` soulsinging in the song they happen to be singing , jonny is one of `em , good on ya me ol` china , keep it going

  • Talent way beyond his years. Gotta love him. So many people nowadays try to do soul and blues... THIS is how it's done. It gives you goosebumps, and if it doesn't, it's not being done right.

  • I love this. SO much.

  • what a gifted young man,so talented!

  • Awesome. He Is Great

  • I let you get back under my skin

    I let you break me down again

    I let you get close way too close

    But I see through it

    You gave me that smile and I gave in

    And you knew that I would

    Time and time again you pulled me in

    Just to give me up, gime me up again

  • I first saw him on the Disney Channel when I was like, oh gosh, 6? LOL I have literally grown up listening to this awesome and inspiring musician.

  • @Willpak123 He was on Disney Channel? Why?

  • @Gonamez.... Got me.... he's a far cry from Hannah Montana and the Jonas Brothers, eh? LOL I honestly really dont know, I guess they tried to promote him by making him some Disney teenage girl heart-throb, but he's so much better than that.

  • @Willpak123 Haha I didnt know that, I guess that's the best way to promote for young teenage girls hah.

  • Fantastic song. Really touches me. I'm a big fan.

  • amazing

  • i've seen jonny twice. both great shows. if you ever get the chance to see him take it! he is amazing live!

  • Man that is some good shit

  • And we LOVE JIMI!!!

  • yeah the broths blessed!!!!!!!!

  • Jonny Lang rocks. Period.

  • maravilhoso!!!

  • I saw Jonny for the first time opening for Sting in Nashville a few years back. Couldn't get over the voice coming from a teenage boy. I hope he has a long and productive life ahead of him. Looking forward to listening to him in the future.

  • I think it was more than a few years ago. I've been rockin' him since I was 15 or so and I'm 24 now O_o

  • You think any of these are great.....you should check out the ALBUM Wander this World... he is and ALWAYS has been AMAZING!!!

  • mmh... or Turn Around

  • I also saw Jonny Lang for the first time on the Crosswords DVD. I was stunned and jaw hung by his performance of Give Me Up Again. The beauty of his guitar playing along with that longing voice has him on

    on my top shelf.

  • Yeah he's from North Dakota too which is BadAss...I'm from there obviously

  • he performed this on crossroads, and man did i fall in love with his voice! sometimes he looked like a horse neighing, but hell is he attractive (:

  • BB King brought Johnny Lang to a White House gig back when Clinton was the man,Johnny brought the house down....he was onlt 17 at the time

  • hes got it down in his heart and soul sometimes it takes a life time to find that  YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST

  • Qué éxito está provocando este vídeo!! Genial.

  • es increible esta canción

  • i could definitely get into this guy.

  • I might be wrong, but in a few decades we'll be talking 'bout him as highly as SRV. Man he's good!

  • amaaaazing musician!!! <3

  • That motherfucker can sing. He makes funny faces, but can't quite do it on guitar.

  • the crossroads performance of this song is the shit...great song and even better musician

  • Just too beautifull. An amazing voice that captivates & his guitar talent, WOW!

  • I don't even know how to describe Jonny. Not enough words in the world for his amazing talent.

  • He's on my clapton's crossroads festival doing this, it kicks ass

  • I got that too...just watched it again- awesome!

  • @srvfan454 i was there it was magical

  • O_O Can I have him for X-mass????

  • Some things truly get better with age, yum yum yum,

  • Real good man, real good solo, echt fett!!!!!

  • I f-in love this! <3 best I heard in a long time <3

  • if jonny comes to germany, I will be the first to buy a ticket.. !!! amazing guy!

  • Comment removed

  • should visit germany someday... europe at all! amazing to see, that there still is real music made today!

  • Here Here! I am speechless... A rare find these days for sure.... Salute!

  • this is austin city limits anybody have any other vids from this show?

  • He's good but better than Gilmour? You are daft.

  • That wannabe John Mayer can't hold a candle to Johnny!

  • johnny lang made his first album in 1995 when he was 15 and john mayer is super shitty he's a joke he makes music for little girls then pretends to play the blues

  • Yeah, he "pretends" to play the blues. Seriously, he's one of the best guitar players to come out in recent years (as well as Johnny). I guess Eric Clapton or Buddy Guy have it all wrong when they say the same thing.

  • Amen.. John Mayer rocks. Check out his Gravity solo at the end from the Where the Light Is DVD... enough said people.

  • Congrats, JilaX, you just made yourself sound like an e-peen stroking idiot.

  • i would; nt go so far to compare two very great(but different) guitarists? try john mayer-covered in rain, or john mayer- slow dancing in a burning room. theres room for all guitarists when it comes to blues dont u think?

  • @Jackle61 His voice is twice as strong as Mayers you jackass! But Mayer's got the upper hand when it comes to the Geetar.

  • @StevenRafiBose No way!! Jonny's one of the greatest guitar players to ever live! I was at a BB King concert and the man was talking about Jonny. Said that he was, quote, "the greatest guitar player he'd ever heard." Coming from BB, that's saying something! :)

  • @flamingoallie I love Jonny, but I think BB was talking about Joe bonamassa!

  • @missmoke007 No....I dont think so...I was AT THE CONCERT and heard him say it. Most definitely was talking about Jonny Lang. Maybe he meant that at Jonny's age he was the best, because he was talking about how young he was too. And maybe he said it about Bonamassa too!

  • @flamingoallie I love Jonny, he's great, but I think BB was talking about Joe Bonamassa!

  • @Jackle61 I hardly think that Johnny Lang is a wannabe John Mayer. He's been around a bit longer than Mayer, releasing his first album at 14. I'm not bashing John Mayer in any way, and I agree there are some similarities between those two artists, but none of them is a wannabe copy of the other. Mayer has enjoyed more mainstream success, that might be the only regard in which Johnny might want to be more like hin though :-)

  • Saw him last night and it was Unbelievable he was ON mic was Perfect sounded AWESOME would go see him again in a heartbeat

  • Just saw jonny at Meadowbrook in Detroit tonight! So talented! Awesome!

  • Mate im so envious of you. Want to meet him so bad but might never, im an Aussie and i doubt he will come down here.

    Hope it was Awesome. . . . .

  • It's gratifying to see so many new comments posted about this amazing artist, who I have followed and adored for years. How can people still not know about him? I saw him on the late show when he was only 12 or 13 and he blew me away, and he's getting better with age. His first album at age 16 was a Grammy nom. My only complaint is he goes WAY too long between cutting albums. Actually, he has only put out a total of 4 or 5 that I know of. Come on Jonny! The world needs more soulful blues!

  • Great singer and soulful guitar player.

    Was this performance from austin city limits?

  • I remember when Johnny Lang first came to light.. First they said Blues can never come from the north they were wrong, Then when Johnny came out with his first hit Lie to me they said he wouldn't last long playing the blues.

    Well look at him now you doubters hahaha.

    Thanks for posting this

  • They are completely two different styles of musicians and should not be compared against each other.

  • wow  - amazing guy
