Be Here Now : Ray Lamontagne
This is a song from one of my favorite live performances. I heard it years ago and can still watch the whole thing and love every minute of it.
I can't pick a favorite song, but this one really speaks to me in a meaningful way. The message and sound comforted me through a particularly hard time in life.
He has a certain shy sincerity to his personality which, I think, translates into his music. It's something that I really love, and seems his advisors (producers/managers) have influenced in ways since he found fame, but his authenticity still remains in his newer music although a bit altered.
The full performance, for anyone interested:
Hope you enjoy. :)
