Them & incubus are so good at creating musical textures.

You don't realize how tight 311 really is as a band until you try covering this simple-sounding song. You need to be very precise with the drums, and you need to fight the urge to rush on the bass with all the stops it has. Their precision is so underrated.

Those harmony vocals. That guy in the back is so vital to their success. He raps, and can peg the perfect harmony note. Love this.

I think this is their best live performance of Amber I've heard

311 is the chillest band ever

Still can't get over how amazing they sound live.

Wow they've been pushing the same lineup since 92. Props to the staying power

311, sublime, sugarray, spin doctor, crazy town. summer, beach, and cold beer. thanks all

One of the most underrated band ever

1:32 This solo is beyond perfection! Dude, it gives me chills every time...

that bass is sick, his playing is absurdly good

This song never gets old

This song goes to the people with golden souls. Love you my friends!

*Gotta love that incredible bass tone.*

Now I'm 42. And re-found this song and the love of my life. Now I find this piece the most underrated and gorgeous of all time. Can't stop listening and thinking about my girl. Thank you!

*I love being a 90's teen. The energy in the air was electric and the talent was incredible.* _Peace and love to everyone from Houston, TX._

God damn I feel like I just opened a time machine to the 90’s.

such an amazing song and performance. that guitar is so hypnotic, and his voice is stellar

will never going to have another rege Soul masterpiece like this I feel all of his emotions it's so incredible and he's dancing with the air that comes from his lungs

I saw these guys live recently. I was blown away how awesome they still are. Nick Hexum almost 50 and still rocks as good as 97. 311 is the shiz

Such a beautiful sounding band🤘💖

This band's work is a perfect example of every sound serving the song.

The crazy thing is, they really are this good live. I love you, 311 ♥

Nick and SA's harmonic vocal is priceless!

The bass guitar and drums here are amazing.

I peed in my pants when I realized this is live. Hats off for the quality

excellent guitar player damn, put some headphones on. Also congrants to the engineer who mixed this wow...drumsssssss

I love this song brings me back when my son was younger and we would just listen to this song. Miss those days.

Let's all wish a #happybirthday to Nick Hexum​ of 311​! Celebrate w/this performance of "Amber" from #GCSessions

I love that bass!!!

I was so excited to see this!! 311 brings me back to my teenage years!!

One of those most beautiful songs ever made, what a performance. I can watch this endlessly. Thank you 311 for such a masterpiece.

one of the best songs ever created.

WOW what an incredible performance, jaw dropping. The sound guy is on point too. Probably unreal acoustics in the room.

One of the greatest songs ever

It's a real chill song. After one would sit and listen to this band's sound, Its hard to believe these guys are from Omaha, Nebraska.

I was there with this band since the beginning.. Cheers to the Gen X peeps.. Boom

This is just amazing. After all these years they still have it. Truly a beatiful song.

Happy 51st birthday Guitar player, Nicholas Lofton Hexum April 12, 1970. Madison, Wisconsin. Played in the Jazz band in a Nebraska high school. And made it big. Lesson learned. Big things come from small beginnings.

One of the tightest bands still going strong! I would love to see them someday.

That sweeet. Sound. Of. Amber. Masterpiece

Not blowing up the charts much anymore,but continue to blow up any room they are in. as you can hear. 311 🤘

The sound is incredible!

Wow! Great tune. This song moves!. The sound!!! It's like an early 1980's English Romantic era vocals mixed with 90's Ska technique, tied together with a mature sophistication. Sweet!

the bass tone to die for

I absolutely love the subtle changes they slipped in this live version. LONG time 311 fan.

I hadn’t realized how much I loved 311 till it came time to have my kid listen to music and it’s like “oh shit, all of this is super ight for young ears”

Such a great live performance... Love it... 😊😊😊

Excelente. Soy de Venezuela. Y esta canción esta en mi Top 5 de Canciones favoritas .

i love that amazing blue guitar

Man, I love these guys. I remember hearing them at my brother's for the first time on my first leave from the Army. And Amber came out right before we deployed to Iraq. We listened to it all the time.

Masterpiece 🙌 just wow. Still like the first time hearing it. Timeless

the sound is just AWESOME!!!

3:00 magical riff

They still sound so good after all these years...if not better!

I just can't play this loud enough. Goosebumps all over.

bad ass guitars sound so goood the best song everrr

Smoooooth .... Island vibe 🌴🌴🌴 Thanks for sharing 😎

pnut with warwick fretless so smooth .. prs guitar sound perfect .. everyone in the zone obviously .. keep revisiting this vid for years now .. just wow!

This performance is so smooth as ever way back from the 90s greatest hits..

my best song♥

Shit sounds so good it gives me the chills and goosebumps..

I just love how they are feeling this song and all just jamming after playing it some ungodly number of times... such a slick song, literally dark and brooding. Top 5 for sure

I think the first time I heard 311 was in the mid 90's. Im a Marley fan, sublime...Lauren hill. when im stressed, this always calmed me I need more.

Brainstorm, take me away from the norm' I've got to tell you something This phenomenon, I had to put it in a song And it goes like Whoa, amber is the color of your energy Whoa, shades of gold display naturally You want to know what brings me here You glide through my head, blind to fear And I know I Whoa, amber is the color of your energy Whoa, shades of gold display naturally Whoa, amber is the color of your energy Whoa, shades of gold display naturally You live too far away Your voice rings like a bell anyway Don't give up your independence Unless it feels alright Nothing good comes easily Sometimes you've got to fight Whoa, amber is the color of your energy Whoa, shades of gold display naturally Lost a thousand ships in my heart so easy Still it's fine from afar And you know that Whoa Brainstorm Take me away from the norm' Whoa I've got to tell you something

One of the best live performances i ever see and heard

Listen to all of different textures and ambiance. This is pure atmosphere. I love it

These guys are timeless.

bass and vocals were faultless. One of the best songs

They sound amazing live. Kinda wished I had seen them in person in my city when they came through. Love this version.

Love 311, P Nut is a MASTER bassist. They are always so amazing live!

The bass it's amazing!

this music when u hear u are floating in the air full of icecream.....so cool!

His guitar tone is so sweet sounding I love it and is so well rounded using his effects

When this song started playing on the radio in 2001 I thought it was great but I also hated it, at that time I was going through my worst moment of drug addiction and when I heard it it made me imagine a future without addiction and being happy, that's why i hated this song because i truly believed that this future that i imagined would never happen, 20 years later i can listen and enjoy this song because i'm finally finding some peace in my life after my addiction and now i strongly believe that moment of happiness will come soon.

This song is always magic. Reminds me of my childhood. The "musicians" today need to learn how to make music from some real g's like the guys in 311

just wanna give a shot out to u guys ur music is still living on from El Paso TX Patty and Jr 😀

Love the "nation" part. That sent this tune into another stratosphere.

Amazing performance! ❤

That fretless bass = INSTANT LIKE @_@

These guys sound awesome in a live session even after all these years. Gotta give them props.

I can hear this all day

this piece and incubus' are you in will always be my top fave. ❤️

Wow this sounds better than the record! Great job 311!

Yep, Love the Mu-tron. Smooth delay as well. Looks like mit is using his Maxon delay at the end there, and I think that is a nova delay next to that. Diamond cabs, Spitfire heads, He has changed his pedalboard a bit as of late. So excited that he is bringing out the Uberschall for this tour.

This is one of those songs where you say "thank the Lord for this gift, and this band!"

I​ love​ you​ 311​ im​ from​ Thailand​

Como an pasados los años 😱.. Esta canción es sin duda unas de mis favoritas!! La amo ❤

God this song.. still amazing then and still amazing now, never ceases to impress me.. and wow actually sounds better here than the record lol

Excellent!

Always thought that P-nut was one of those underrated bass players on the modern scene. Guy is extremely talented and can lay it down big time with incredible grooves and playing. Hell, the entire band is incredibly talented and can play very well.

Woo... amber is the color of the energy....

The reason why you don't see a lot of 311 cover songs on KZfaq, especially for the song "Amber", is because only 311 can play this song to perfection.

2024! Raise your hands:)
