"Have Mercy on Me" by The Black Keys

[ezetreezy]

00:19

best part of any fucking song they have every done. this song will forever be my favorite song from the keys

[TheMrsGandy]

God I love this song, I love this band, I love this album! But I can't even explain how much I hate the new album, El Camino.

[TheP00pBandit]

@TheMrsGandy yeah it really sucks. everyone's dad loves it tho, so that's cool. dads deserve more, I suppose.

[NitroRider7]

@TheMrsGandy Why? I always find it mind blowing when fans get pissed that the bands they're into don't make the same record over a million times like AC/DC

[PatBB333]

@TheMrsGandy El Camino isnt shitty its just shitty compared to their older shit. Even Brothers isnt very good compared to the older shit

[E8NOS]

k o m a t a r a !

[rocksolid351]

Nice work guys! Nice and tight!

[twothousandpeople]

Can't believe this band is just two white guys...

[TheonlySolopan]

I am so fucking inspired...

[jordon666]

i jerked off to this....and it felt good

[Mcgatord]

So many under rated artists like Nick Cave, Cake and The Black Keys get no respect but once you actually listen to them people cant get enough of them!

[TheBishMighty]

My favorite off of Chulahoma. I especially love the atmospheric keyboard part that comes in after the intro. I do hope their next release has more of a "dark soul" sound to it, as the keyboard portrays here (like on Brothers with "The Only One"). What I mean is- think about "There's A Riot Goin' On" and how that had a dark approach to funk music.

[MrCopperhead1861]

Junior Kimbrough is smiling down on his greatest students, the Black Keys! My life would be all the darker with out you three wise men to shine your golden bluesy light!

[TheVinyl420]

anyone complaining about the quality of music nowadays has not heard the black keys

[ern363]

if it wasn't for that subaru commercial i would have never found out about this group ^^

[k7hawk]

This song actually changed my appetite. When I clicked play I had a falafel and loobyeh. Now I wish I had a beer and another beer.

[Chilling10680]

This song just gave me some serious goosebumps (again)

[theKCRoyalty]

if i don't listen to chulahoma every day, i feel an empty spot.

[johnnyblingblong]

This is the kind of sound that exposes so many of the "blues" artists touring around today as the impostors they truly are.

THUMBS UP for REAL emotion, REAL soul. THUMBS UP for REAL BLUES.

[ChlorineHeart]

I really fucking love the Black Keys. It's kind of ridiculous.

[acutefluffybeaver]

Done anybody wrong?

[RipsGlock]

hey funny whatever your name is guns hate you too .all of mine agree you are a douche .sorry

[BigCM06]

if everyone could listen to this music after having just smoked a joint, there would be no more war or violence.

this is world-saving music.

[NevskiJr]

Don't you wanna just sink in to this..?

[HTMLTHUG]

Outrageous Cherry does this song too... Blake Snake Moan sound track

[Funnyguy3rd]

I'd like to know the meaning of the image of the gun, cuz " I ADMIRE THE BLACK KEYS, BUT I HATE GUNS ".

[2ndBestAllTime]

@Funnyguy3rd Seeing the colours comming out of the gun, could be a Gun of Love/ Mayybe a Gun of Funk or psychedalia

[jkc816]

@Funnyguy3rd it's effing blues, man, the gun could symbolize despair, or it could be they just thought it looked cool. Remember Kid Guns are cool.

[clarkewi]

@jkc816 Guns are phallic symbols. Blues is about 2 things; sex and death.

[Comanche1100]

@Funnyguy3rd yea my guns hate you too

[TheMrPipps]

@Funnyguy3rd youre a fag

[lovemybabyboygavin]

This song makes you feel alive!

[Jisarin]

los amo!



[fdaapproved]

oh the fool ive been, not realizing this album exists, mediafire here i come!

[wkufin]

This song made me forget I wasn't dead.

[LutschiX]

2 people on this fucking planet have no idea about feelings and music ... ?!

[txoricin]

@LutschiX Yeap, Sad isn't it...

[gretelthompson]

Watch an actual video made for this song on my channel ;)

[BustedBreaks2]

I feel this way half the time these days..

[knawimsayinnnnn]

I think these are these are the best highest rated comments for this song haha

[98bucket1]

im sober right now, and this brings tears to my eyes.

[buddhahands]

smoke a bowl before 2:17

[surrealtree]

So far, this is the best "practicing baby making" album I've ever heard. Hands down.

[gullydubbs]

maybe it's the weed, but this song makes me weep. no lie. word 2 the keys and all my love to jr.

[wrakneelyo]

2 people didn't get mercy.

[thatkidd94]

@wrakneelyo Indeed they didn't. Shame on them.

[Runestomymemory1]

The Black Key's best album. Period. The fact Junior Kimbrough's wife actually called them and said they were doing a great job means something!

[TheKersey1]

@Runestomymemory1 Thickfreakness is their best. This does come a close second though.

[nykballaz]

2 People had no Mercy screw them Black Keys and Junior Kimbrough rocked

[soxfan249]

This (or the original) is the song that I want played at my funeral.

[hooplahh]

this is so much better than tighten up

[jahrastapack]

@hooplahh yah man i miss the old days when they were a raw BLUES duo, not a polished alt/indy/blues band

[hnvoight]

@jahrastapack...ya i can tell the difference too, and agree this is better (still think theyre currently best band out there). but i think they will get back to their roots... great bands always try new stuff, evolve, write new material, etc but eventually revisit their roots...Neil Young is the best example i can think of... Rock n roll will never die and the Black Keys are carrying the flag right now

[tedmcgyver]

Simply amazing. Finally, a cover that could arguably be better than the original. I'm on the fence, though. When you start a Kimbrough song, it seems as if you cannot shut it off.

[Nomad9]

Rock and roll in it's purest form.

[SentinelConvergence]

This is what I imagine it must sound like to hear God speak.

[tencr4z]

@SentinelConvergence more like the devil

[sassybeest]

@tencr4z Then why are you here?

[tencr4z]

@sassybeest what? cause this song rock....

[tencr4z]

ooohhhh yeaaaaahhhhhhhhhh

[djlink76]

its just raw blues mate ... like cream and all th others

[thed0dfather]

bravo !!! ... awesome stuff...

[Bunzypoo]

And....why would anybody even mention Nickleback on this video in the first place?

[kristand56]

just have to say double tough and then

[disposablemonster]

yesterday i discovered junior kimbrough, today i discovered this album, tomarrow im starting a fucking blues band...

[sassybeest]

@disposablemonster LMAO!! Right The Fuck On!!!

[shhmellshlikeasshhhh]

I love the black keys!

My favorite album is Chulahoma C:

[xxr0xerxx]

It just feels damn good.

[jackcan1000]

Nice and DARK Sounding

[aspenboise]

just as refreshing as.......hendrix___3rd stone from the sun!

[midtennhills]

mind candy



[elalexs420]

fucking awesome...

[jazzaces294]

its like ear sex

[Soulvania]

20 Burnsville, MN reminding myself why its feels so good to hurt when the black keys make it hurt so good.

[silvertoungue420]

Dude outrageous cherry does a version of this song its ba dass!!!

[hbash089]

FUCK THIS!! i denounce all other kinds of music. this is unbelievable. this blues rock to the fullest.

[frumplen]

the blues will never die

[SinNick001]

@frumplen

Yup, blues is everywhere ;)

[jakub0530]

this jam right here, Dope.

[renatadunn]

29, Monroe, Ga....why isn't music like this mainstream? Wake up, America and tune into real music...keep playing that funk/rock/blues/soul, boys...

[AgentCarter]

well this music specifically is mainstream. although very little music like is, at least very little modern music

old funk/rock/blues/soul albums still sell quite well

[slyker5]

i had a baby to this

[BoorowaBallSnake]

@slyker5 I made a baby to this.

[spellthemagicword]

@BoorowaBallSnake

I dance and dance and dance to this song. That's what this song is to me, a slow and highly sensual impulse to manifest what I feel....it is like having an orgasm that doesn't end... yes, that's it.

[Ehaggag]

@BoorowaBallSnake Lmao , 1st congratz , 2nd that kid must be the new junior kimbrough or somthin'

[axe187187]

@BoorowaBallSnake Just one?

[egoexitosus]

@BoorowaBallSnake most be one good looking baby.

[chuckafs]

this song is so fucking sick

[gypsyqueen1964]

Very nice! Now the old is new again! Really Rockin the house!

[bpharr90]

19 Holly Springs, MS. Great band, just like the North Mississippi Allstars and the White Stripes, but doesn't get any more raw than R.L. and Junior's boys that keep the blues going in a BIG way here! Look up David Kimbrough, Jr. playing this song.

[Knockrocker]

[shugyousha]

27 Switzerland. I should be working on a thesis but am listening this fantastic song and reminiscing about the first time I heard it four years ago instead. The song hasn't lost anything of its awesomeness over those past years. Now if I only could buy "Brothers" somewhere around here...

[DickBassBarracuda]

I listen to this before the gym.... pumped the fuck up!!!

[karpatzasrevenge]

i got another group for you to get pumped up to but the black keys are also great :P

the name of the group is rage against the machine :P

[DickBassBarracuda]

Oh yeah they are the shit too! I bought their album in '92 when it first came out. One of the first CDs I ever had. I am going to Youtube that shit right now. Thanks! You reminded me that I should do that.

[indiana1fats]

@karpatzasrevenge - Do you mean "Rage Against My Own Band"? I thought they self-destructed with the singer rampaging on his own - with a pocket full of shells - and guitarist Morello first joining Audioslave and then playing his acoustic anywhere and everyhwere - with anyone. Do you mean these guys? Are they back together?

[karpatzasrevenge]

apprently they got a concert this year i dont no where but this is what being said and its rage against the machine but you got the names right :P

[navinPt2]

why would anyone listen to shit like nickelback when stuff like this is out there?

[indiana1fats]

Good question! I turn sixty years old in a couple of months - been listening to music closely for a long, long time. These two guys are as good as it gets in my opinion.

[Jakuta11]

When I saw these guys in Columbus a few years ago, a few gentleman around your age who I believe were with the venue were standing just off stage. I don't think they had ever heard of these guys, but to watch there reaction and the enjoyment they were getting out of the music was the highlight of the show 4 me. Love the cross generational musical connections. And your from the Golden Age!

[DickBassBarracuda]

A-fucking-gree!

[RenaDoll]

@navinPt2 amen to that!

[rocketboy1thousand]

@navinPt2 why would any one listen to nickelback in the first place?

[Bunzypoo]

@navinPt2 Because Americans are simpletons and sheep.

[GuerillaWarFairness]

@navinPt2 Many people don't even know stuff like this exists. Sad.

[smokinjoesixpack]

i love how heavy this song is and all of the black keys stuff is great certainly way better then alot of crap now passing for rock n roll

[FRANMAN1979]

this song is so epic. it borders on cinematic. the intro reminds me of some sergio leone westerns.

[SirAllAboutMusic]

You should hear the Junior Kimbrough version, it's even more epic.

[PeterElz]

incredible good sound

[JefftheGNOME]

One of the best covers i've ever heard. This could make anyones balls drop.

[AL3XTH3LARG3]

i like it

[TP2010]

fuzzin' shit up, yes!

[bragtheface]

raw as fuck

[alexeroberts]

the entire magic potion album is flat out ridiculous.

[concando1]

Best white boy electric blues personification since Led Zeppelin. Nearly stacks up to the original with it's bombast and haunting backround farfisa organ. The great Kimbrough would be proud!!!!!

[dfendle1]

Does anyone know who painted/designed that sick pistol for the album cover ?- it fits the gritty music so perfect

[Procrastinatorable]

Anybody know any other really chill songs by these guys?

[HardKnockLife2]

when the lights go out, all you ever wanted, things aint like they used to be, youre the one, those are mellow

[nacosataniko6]

Kimbrough!!!!

[MrMatthewsullivan]

My favorite BK song, so soulful, so few words, so poignant- plus great playing as usual- nuff said

[gagealbright]

i have a farfisa organ, which is the creepy organ in the background. also i wonder what the little clicking sound is...kinda sounds like when you flip the switches on a farfisa....

[faunoram]

todo gil que no se canse de alabar a SRV o a clapton debería escuchar esto para caerse de culo y comprender que jr kimbrough y rl burnside reinventaron el blues en los 90s

bestial version de los black keys !!!

[Fififlan]

Ahuevooo!!!
