Greatest and most moving guitar solo ever. I feel like I'm rushing on MDMA every time that solo kicks in. Purely magical and genius

[EmmaRoydsared]

Class is permanent, people will still be listening to these guys long long after we're sadly departed ❤

[ShawnMoodie]

Spending my Saturday afternoon dancing with my toddler to this in the living room. Time well spent. 😊

[mikemike]

I am 62 years old, my nephew sent me a link for these guys, and they are everything that everyone says below... Listening to rock since i was 10, and this is up with the best

[bruceaisher]

This sounds better than the version on the album. The sound engineers at KEXP are fucking masters! (And the band too)

[AbyssMoonrise]

Gotta love the drummer layin' down that steady beat. Makes everything feel alright.

[fenris]

Oh boy. I am young again, crossing half the country to see her at sunset... time flies, kids.

[jangeeraaron]

the song is finished. I can finally breathe.

[PomPotsy]

Bloody tight drummer keeping it all in place. Driving guitars, brilliant vocals. What's not to love 💕

[TheGilesever]

Out of 1M views I think 1000 is from me. 6 years later, still favorite music performance, especially at 4:56

[cdein]

That drummer wins.  Everything.  All of the time.

[erikklamer]

The part beginning at 5:41 gets me emotional everytime, such a wonderfull guitar part and solo!
I can't stop listening at this solo

[pokertube]

I can´t imagine more appropriate way to describe this song and what it does to me than give you this quote "The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls." - Pablo Picasso

[danieltaylor]

I don't know what it is, the 5 senses can't account for it, but when that band rips into that guitar solo something seriously happens to me.

[ThePlastikheart]

How can you have a two-minute long solo and still feel like you need more! It’s insane

[johanmattsson]

This is the rolls Royce version of this song, I must by now have more than 100 listenings

[owenbeezley]

That solo is still hits 6 years later, I was mind blown when I saw this band live, pure talent at best

[colinwithington]

Just one of those tracks you don't want to end !

[erichermansen]

everyone should be required to listen to this song

[bpmanzoli]

i'm 59 yrs old and this could be the most perfect song ever lyrically and melodically
