I posted a version of this a couple years back, but here David Gray gives a great performance of his song "Nemesis" at a recent festival in Ireland.

David Gray
I am doing posts this week on artists that I have seen live in the last couple weeks.
I went to a David Gray concert a couple weeks ago. I think this is the first time that I have had video on this blog from a concert where I was present. The first two videos are from the concert at the Lyric Opera house. I was in the first row of the balcony for this concert. I included a video of "Nemesis" on my 2009 Favorites post. This video, from the Lyric, is a better version of the song, so I am including the song again.
Also from the concert at the Lyric, here is "Babylon", one of the big hits of the White Ladder album.
He performed "Full Steam" at the concert, but here is a duet video of the recording he did with Annie Lennox.

Van Morrison Covers
Van Morrison vigilantly restricts embedding of his videos, otherwise I would have posted some videos of him before now. I guess he figures he has been cheated out of money in the past, and doesn't want to miss any now.
So here are covers of some of his best songs.
Amos Lee performing "Crazy Love".
Hal Ketchum performing "Tupelo Honey".
The is no video with this, but since this is my favorite Van Morrison song and I am going to see David Gray next week, here is "And It Stoned Me".

2009 Favorites
This last post of the year contains videos of my five favorite songs from 2009. Not all of the videos have the best sound so I am also including a link to the lyrics for each song.
"Funny the Way It Is" written by Carter Beauford, Stefan Lessard, Dave Matthews, Leroi Moore, Boyd Tinsley and Tim Reynolds.
The song is from the Dave Matthews Band album Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King.
I posted an another version of this song previously in my Animation post.
"Nemesis" written by David Gray, Robbie Malone and Neill MacColl.
This is from David Gray's album Draw the Line. I had trouble getting a video of this with good audio quality. Here is an extended version of the song that ends with what I think are a couple lines from the Kate Bush song "Running Up That Hill".
"Chalk" by written by Julie Miller.
This song is from Buddy & Julie Miller's album Written In Chalk. On the album Buddy performs the song with Patty Griffin, but there is no good video of them performing it together, so here is a version with just Buddy performing.
"Remember Well" written by Luke Bulla.
This song is on the album WPA put out by the group Works Progress Administration. The band is fronted by Glen Phillips from Toad the Wet Sprocket, Sean and Sara Watkins from Nickel Creek, and Luke Bulla, who wrote this song and also sings lead on it.
"Sulphur to Sugarcane" written by Elvis Costello and T Bone Burnett.
None of the songs so far have been particularly upbeat, and the last song was about Alzheimer's. So I at least want to end with some levity. This song is off Elvis Costello's album "Secret, Profane & Sugarcane".
