The official video for REVOLUTION by the John Butler Trio. From the album 'April Uprising' Site: www.johnbutlertrio.com Shop jbt.musicplug.me (lyrics copyright John Butler, 2010) So tell me family now what do you think? Watch it all go in the great big sink. Watch how the scum it rises to the top. Don't you wonder when it's all gonna stop? Sometimes I wonder how we do sleep, serving the dodgy companies we keep. All kicking and scrounging for the very first place - dictionary definition of a rat race. Pay off those losers we elect to lead, stealing from the mouths that we're meant to feed. Enslaving the very clothes upon my back, I feel the sting but I hear no crack, no crack, I'm saying + Running through the fire, running through the flame, running through the hatred, pushing through the blame, running through the hopelessness and shame, revolution already underway ++ [B]ig Heavy [P]irates man digging those holes, messing with something that they can't control. Trespassing lands where they don't belong, all I hear is screaming where there once were songs. I got my brothers they're fighting those wars, fighting over scraps and scraping their sores. Under a blanket of a fire and pride that can't keep us warm for the cold inside, inside, I'm saying + So tell me when you think we're gonna rise? Wake from this slumber wipe the tears from our eyes? Yes from this nightmare yes I must now wake, open my fist my destiny I take! Good people sick and tired of being pushed around, we ...

ONE WAY ROAD Lyrics by JOHN BUTLER, 2009 They come they take Its never enough because they cant relate To the real world Thinking that the oyster is just for the pearl They start those wars They want to own the land sea and all the stars And right those wrongs They change their history with their poison forked tongues. All right, whos they? A Maybe its the government of today Or B for the big business man who thinks the whole world revolves around him Or C for the corrupt official for A and B he be the man in the middle Or D for discoverer for Cook and Columbus and the pirate plunderers. Doesnt mean I aint got no fight now just because I dont got a gun The lyrical is heavier than lead and this guitar is my canon Just like my Martin and Mahatma Im gonna love Im gonna over come Maybe its E for all of the above but I dont want to be Wrong way going down the one-way road wrong way going down the one-way road Wrong way going down the one-way road gonna turn it all around gonna back it on up Wrong way going down the one-way road wrong way going on a one-way road Wrong way going down the one-way road gonna turn it all around gonna back it on up These men who they say we should follow BUT we cant follow men if their hearts are hollow and Mmmm yes how can we respect puppet regimes we do not elect? Straight up straight ...
John Butler Trio Studio web blog 24th June, 2009 John Butler introduces us to the new JBT lineup and a walk through the new studio. Melbourne musician Nicky Bomba will feature as the new drummer and percussionist. Nicky has been a prominent member of the Melbourne music scene with his band Bomba and is a prolific songwriter, performer and producer in his own right. Nicky was also the principle drummer on JBTs five times platinum album Sunrise Over Sea. Sydney musician Byron Luiters will feature as the new bass player. Byron is a talented dynamic bassist who has been a member of the Sydney outfit Ray Mann Three. John, Nicky and Byron commenced recording of the new studio album earlier this month and are thrilled with progress so far. John Butler said today, Over the last twelve years of the JBT, I have been blessed with some amazing individuals. All have left their legacy and have raised the musical bar of the band. With any new incarnation it has always been an honour and challenge to meet the benchmark the band has achieved artistically and take it to the next level. Its great to be playing with Nicky again and Byron brings a whole new level of melody, funk and Mojo to the Trio. Very exciting times. Stayed tuned to johnbutlertrio.com as we make changes around the site and add updates from the studio sessions! Look forward to the first single later in the year.

John Butler Trio [Live at Wave Aid] - Treat Yo Mama John Butler jumped at the chance to give something back at the Wave Aid benefit concert held in Sydney in January 2005 for victims of the Boxing Day tsunami.

masterpiece... " what you want " from the concert " live harmonie in bonn " . What you wanna say, Wait until you get home. I'm sick of communicating now over the telephone. Tell me how you feel, For I am lonely too Need you to know I'm just as cold and numb as you. But I could fly away, Or I could be no one. And you could be the Sunshine falling over the mountain You could come to stay Yes you could come right home I don't see why I have to Live this life all alone. I know there is a way to make up for mistakes I know what's happening is for a reason.

One of the most amazing guitar solos. He performs this one different every time, but this one is a favorite of many of his fans. If you like it, then go to johnbutlertrio.com and check out his albums. Enjoy! (This video WAS previously submitted to YouTube, but the submitter had trouble with getting the audio and video to sync up correctly. I didn't have this problem, so I figured I'd submit it myself.) For those wanting to own this video, go to www.awarestore.com and buy it. It comes with John Butler's best live recording and the DVD containing this video along with a few others, and it's only $15. I will no longer be giving this video out to people who ask for it, so please buy the CD instead. Thanks.

Clay Aiken sings Unchained Melody In Toledo, OH during the Jukebox Tour, Summer 2005. Recorded by jojoct.
This video is from www.jbtlive.com and you can find this vid for download and you can download a mp3 version of this. John calls this song 'Far Away', but its obviously 'What You Want'. I'm assuming he had just written the song recently before this aired on Australian TV in 2003, then later changed the name to 'What You Want'. Anyway, I just wanted to share this video because its a great video and one of my favorite songs.
John Butler Trio - Live from Webster Hall 2005 - Great Guitar Solo!
One of the best instrumental guitar pieces ever. Just incredible i will not send anybody a video or mp3 of this. Go to www.johnbutlertrio.com and buy the album. you must agree and artist of such talen deserves support! :) Hi, i have had a lot of comments about this getting out of sync. Unfortunately this is nothing to do with me(works fine on my comp, and i have re-uploaded it numerous times), so i cant fix it :(. It may be something to do with the codec i used, but either way, it is a youtube prob. Sorry guys, and glad to have gotten so much positive feedback about it :D
