One man. One guitar. Absolute brilliance. My emotions spill over the cup of my life.

Been listening to this man for years. About time he gets the recognition he deserves.

Jon knows.

This dude is so legit live, he's the embodiment of a rock star. His presence on stage is almost intimidating, but his music is disarming and he's a genuine, cool guy. He's also one of the best guitar players I've ever seen live. He reminds me of BB King, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and Jimi Hendrix all rolled into one.

I so agree!! I saw him 7-8 years ago and he was up on stage with his guitar wearing this large black hat that covered his face in shadow for most of the performance. He looked so mysterious and almost eerie. That coupled with the deeply soulful music - definite rockstar material.

Gary Clark Jr. is one of the best contemporary songwriters and guitarists.

This cat has got PIPES. So much emotion.. Fantastic 👍

@@m0j0lukac Thanks for shouting out Gary's appearances at the Crossroads festivals, that's where I first heard of this amazing musician!

This song so deeply speaks to my soul. My brother chose to take his life 9 months ago, and it still feels like barely any time has passed. He was my soul friend who understood me like no one on this planet ever did, and he was the kindest, most giving person I've ever known - he just suffered from his own self pain or demons as they say. I love you Jesse and I miss you every day.. I know you're at peace too 🪽

I love that you can watch him perform thr same song on the different talk shows and no 2 performances are the same...

He has a great blues rock timbre to his voice.

He deserves so much more in this world. Thank you John and The Daily Show production team/cast for showcasing GCJ.

When you're a natural, when you have the voice, when you have depth, you don't need gimmicks.

NO AUTOTUNE!!! It’s very important. Love this man! Checkout “when my train pulls in”!

Goosebumps. Ah, I remember that time I was fortunate enough to be 'around a fire' (if you will) after a festival set - and Eric Clapton and John Legend were both speaking about this man with such eloquence and honor.... which blew my own mind. He deserved it before any of that though. Let's give him the respect he deserves. Thanks GLC

Amazing

Beautiful 🔥 🔥

Greatest musician of our generation. On Pandora✨💫💎 Edit: He’s on Pandora where I’ve subbed to his station and only ever heard him until now when I’ve subbed to his KZread channel. He IS the greatest musician of our generation tho✨💫💎

His dad is great too! Sings Mary's Prayer in a band

Amazing album 🙌🙌🙌

I never heard of this guy and I like his style.

Nothing is in life is not for sure. What's for sure, live u may, die u must. A song with meaning 😂.

Saw him play at last year‘s Love Rocks NYC. He was incredible.

I love the acoustic version on jre! This one is cool but something about the acoustic hits hard.

If y'all want to see another side of Gary really rockin' out, I recommend you check out his Stevie Wonder tribute performance with Beyonce and Ed Sheeran. He's just phenomenal!

Oh wow. I relate to this so much. Thank you Gary for putting words to the way many of us feel. Things seem dark but I know there is hope..He has a name. Jesus. He has always filled me. It makes time like what Gary is describing bearable.

How can I have so much in common with him? His words struck so close.

If his song is true about himself, it's such a pity. He's so young and has a whole life yet to live, and life goes on much longer than you know when you're young. He has time to cure himself and stop mourning his innocence. All humans come to that conclusion sooner or later, and it shouldn't come so early in life. You have the whole world to explore. Just do it and don't dwell so much on the present.

I honestly like this version better than the studio version.
