Video: Wilco – “Jesus, etc”

Tall buildings shake
Voices escape singing sad sad songs
Tuned to chords strung down your cheeks
Bitter melodies turning your orbit around

Myspace: Wilco

    I heard that Clear Channel banned this from radio play on all their stations after 9/11. Pretty weird…..

  2. Jason Says:

    That is weird, pretty sure the song was written pre-9/11..always thought that the lyrics fit though…

  3. the night owl Says:

    Correct, the song was written prior to 9/11.

    Further proof Wilco is the best recording and performing band in America at present.

    Wilco played Overture last 9/11. Both Jesus, etc and Ashes of American Flags were powerful that evening…

    Can you actually get Lolla video somewhere? Seems like they wouldn’t pass up the chance to sell me a 5 DVD set of the weekend, but I can’t seem to find it.

    Thank you for your Wilco content. My favorite band ever. The Night Owl is right…

  7. Yajrennat Says:

    Andrew Bird has joined Wilco on this song numerous times. Always a real treat.
