Haha! That's a serious rarity; funny thing is he played it off like it could have been the lyrics to the song. His improvisation skills are incredible. But on the low, that was a flake haha. But like I said it's rare, and it just shows how amazing he is and how professional he is for rarely making mistakes. This video just proves he's human!
what do you all mean the best song? I hope you dont include try and continuum with that comment because what about, axis bold as love, try, come when i call, who did you think i was..
He's a very spiritual songwriter. "I am invincible?" Rising even higher when the world keeps testing us? Preach on, Brother John! He's my favorite artist.
They look like they're performing inside of a McDonald's restaurant.
John's voice started off a little flat, but he was right on by the time verse 2 started. My only real complaint is that you didn't record the whole song.
I agree with incufish, though - this and Gravity are the best 2 songs on the CD.
Does this make anyone thing about the whole "tiffany" mall tour back in the 80's? I was only 5 when the 80's ended and I STILL can place this in something that looks like a mall tour, even though I know it's a record store.
This is the best video I have ever seen!!! Thumbs up for whoever recorded this!

I've gotten pretty close, but not that close.
I miss this John, the humble one with long hair and a little more meat on his bones.

Worst version of vultures ive ever heard. John sang it way too fast and the guitar didnt sound bluesy enough.
