Yep, One Direction cover.

Dev09 – You Made Me.

Live, Marian Hill.

The singer is even better live. That guy is damn good on the alto sax, too.

This is also fucking excellent.

I’ve been listening to her song for a while, but had never seen her before watching this video tonight. By her voice, I thought she was in her 30s at least. No idea she was only 18.

Marian Hill — One Time

God she is so good. And the video is hella cool. Time loops and doppelgängers. Bet she likes her some sf. (Her name isn’t actually Marian Hill — that’s the name of the group I think.)

Now this is how mighty good country can be, ya’ll.

Better than the album cut, and the album cut is damn fine.

This band is not from earth. Just look at the singer. She does a pretty good job of acting like a real human woman, but she’s too well-coiffed, too poised, too perfect to be a member of Homo sapiens. Perhaps a replicant, perhaps an alien, but still a great performance.

Such a great performance. So physical on Hayley Mary’s part. Unfortunately I don’t care for their second album that much, but this song from the first is epic live.

The off-the-beat drumming in the bridge is also damn fine, too.

I’ve embedded this before. I’ll probably embed it again. It’s my favorite rock/blues performance by anyone, ever.

The way she bends those notes. I could practice for a decade and couldn’t do that. That’s a song I didn’t even like till she owned it so hard the stage about melted.

Conventional wisdom is that women just can’t play the guitar because their dainty little hands or something. I’d invite anyone to watch this performance and claim such a stupid fucking thing.
