The comments are insane. The life of the crowd is what makes this video
Awesome crowd. They made this performance even more fun to watch. People like John Butler bring us all closer together, no matter where we are from.
He doesn't play the music. He is the music. One of the best guitar music ever written. Masterpiece.
If you don't want to hear the "noise" of the crowd, go to "Ocean" studio version, ppl are living that magic moment, the song makes echoe inside of the person who listening this artwork, if you look at the end of the song, the girl from the background, cry of emotion, man.. just live and let die. I prefer a crowd who express itself with claps and screams, to ppl without a little of emotion, that only record and make selfies with his phones. (Sorry if you don't undestand me jeje, but my mother language is Spanish)

Nestor Romualdo si no nos molesta el público, lo molesto es que haya momentos en que las palmadas tapan la música, cuando se emocionan no es molesto pero el que está detrás de Jhon y aplaude los doce minutos por encima de él si lo es

Listen to the Japan Version one of the best renditions
My all time favourite version of this awesome tune. He manages to play this 6 string just as good as he does his 11 string (from the studio version). The crowd, man, Indian people are a passionate people. They don't just love this performance, they live it, right there in that moment.

I was there my friend! the camera did not capture the sound very well but the place was shaking with enthusiastic students. One of the best memories of my Uni days.
I am from Jadavpur University. Miracles happen here. :-)
Is it just me or does the tuning mod-performance just make it so much better
I just realised that I was acting like the girl sat on the stairs during the whole song, and I don't feel ashamed, not even a little bit. Such a soulful and amazing piece of music that sets itself apart from every other thing
Loved the involvement and energy of the crowd. As a performer you feed off of it.
I can't believe he came to India... I would trade anything to watch him perform live.,...
I love how they clapped in this clip, great Momment... and love to John Butler as always
Thanks for this vid. I started learning guitar at 43 after a lifetime of wanting to, I started the day after I heard THIS song. Ocean is a beautiful gift to mankind. Thanks JB

Daisy Duke all is going well actually. In the last year I’ve been back learning a lot of stuff on effects and gear and actually started up a bunch of facebook groups and now working on, well struggling on figuring out KZread. It’s a lot of fun and pretty good pursuit for finding my own voice in all this stuff. Thanks for the reply. I managed to see John butler trio in person finally last summer and It was really amazing.
What an amazing crowd! Absolutely loving it, such an amazing song.
This made me cry and I have listened to the studio version many times! 🤎
With that crowd, this version of Ocean become more alive. Awesome as always! Thanks for recording that event!
WHAT.THE.FUCK! This man was in Kolkata?? And I just left my home city for Delhi two months ago! FML!
The last 3 mins are INSANE !! And the last 20 sec`s are not from this universe :) ThumbsUp

I don't get why people are moaning about the crowd. They're seeing a rare performance (for them) of an international musician up close and personal. Not that many major artists get to play in India. So, they're clapping along; at least they're enjoying it. I've seen videos of him playing this song at venues in The US and Europe and audience members have been talking all the way through.
Many in the crowd dint know what they were listening to could change their life forever!
The girl who gave the capo if already on a hots with John. Never failed to listened to Ocean over and over again. Teary eye as always.
Thank you Rohit for recording this masterpiece. Because of you, we are enjoying this masterpiece. Peace (y)

I have a theory that he got so pissed at the octave string on the g [4th] for breaking every 5 minutes he just removed the tuning peg and gave up on it, calling it an 11 string. It's what happened with mine anyway lol

Actually, that day the performance was an impromptu jam session which turned into an actual show. The guitar ( probably a Fender as far as I remember ) was giving some instability issues. It had some nut problem I guess, so that's why he had became kinda hopeless about it and sadly there was no other guitar lying around. I was there that day, one of the best memories of my University days.
awesome thanks for sharing. Crowd was awesome! Magic
You guys witnessed something you'll remember forever! Dude's one of my biggest inspiration, and this is the one time I regretted not taking admission in this college lol! Anyways if you've time I've covered this song on a 6 string too.
Beautiful! Fantastic musician.
changed my life man .......changed.....my........life.......
Manh ... He is just way too awesome ... It's like reaching the eternity at some spots of the high core stuff ... He does the best the 12 stringed ones.
What an absolute gift... Thank you so much for this video. Now I can finally learn this on my guitar!

@@soumyadeephansda1655 it is stained/painted and gloss finished. Doesn't automatically mean laminate and frankly there are some truly phenomenal guitars using laminate sections. The main change in tone, if any, between guitars occurs with a combination of bracing, disparate types of wood, and MOST IMPORTANTLY age. If you take a 30 year old guitar and an exact rebuild of it from last week, there is a notable difference in sound. Additionally, this dude could make a First Act guitar sing.
That’s huge because string gauge might not be his, action is not his favorite, 6 strings guitar that is not even his… RESPECT ✊🏼
Love for the audience 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Amazing performance. One of my version.
The national anthem of sentience.
The best😍😎💪❤
I love the crowd
This was best.. but U put it on GODS leavel. ❤️❤️👍Ya work..
This was a live performance meaning that a crowd takes part in it. And someone happened filmed it, so don't expect the audience to not get involved.
thanks for recommending

The music is spiritual and has deep meaning thats why they are getting into it. Ordinary people living in the moment just for a moment before life takes over again. You people need to get a grip and realize what really matters and yes money can,t fuckin buy it :)
