The A/V effect of this really shows how you could throw these dudes in any era and their music would fit in just fine. They are a perfect example of timeless music.
Ambience. Setting. Nature. Rustic. Cinematography. Sound (old time gramophone). Everything about this is so perfect. It brings back so many memories of childhood. I always come back to this. I’ve been watching this for over a decade and will be watching for several more (I hope).
I just divorced the mother of my children...a pathological liar, shoplifter, and serial adulterer diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder who I doubt uttered a single truthful word in 17 years of marriage. I can't express how it feels to listen to this song. Thanks to the Avetts I have something to hum in my head as I walk down the street....
Thank you...but oddly enough, the situation got worse for my children just this week. So by extension I'm not doing ok as their father. A music video comment section is not the venue for such conversation other than to say that pathological dishonesty is a far more destructive human trait for families than those who have never dealt with it can possibly imagine. The weight of lies, indeed. We now even have a president whose dishonesty is weighing upon an entire nation...
You mean like unemployment going down,,, stock market going up. Being respected in the world again. Yeah that's terrible.This is the first president in my lifetime that actually is trying to do what he said he was going to do. How you can call that is a lie or dishonest is beyond me. There are none so blind as those that will not see... Your right about one thing a music comment section is not a place for such conversations, so why did you bring it up.
Every time I listen to the Avett brothers, I'm just in awe. There aren't words to describe how their music makes me feel. What a way to make this shit-tastic week more enjoyable.
I Love these Brothers - they compliment each other so well - and they know who should be lead on each song - i love the bluegrass feel without the patchouli smell
I was introduced to The Avett brothers by the book called Slammed from Colleen Hoover.. what amazing experience to listen to their music and reading Slammed... I understand better what main character is feeling because songs describe it really good.. I became fan of Brothers after few chords ❤
i live in the same town as these two and have seen them a few times. As you would expect, they act like normal human beings and are completely humble. This is a perfect video. It describes their lives so well. I am a forever fan.
Life to short to chase after people who lie thier way through life! If you do, take from me you will be chasing thier lies with no happness to show for the time you put into getting to know the person!
The first time I watched this video about a year ago is the moment I fell in love with the Avetts. The old-timey sound on this is the business. Saw them live, finally, and then were unreal. This is music. (Come to the pacific NW more often!!).
scott and seth are the true meaning of artists, all of their work is so inspirational. their gentlemen of north carolina and represent my home state with pride, let their music play forever.
Now there have been 5 years I was waiting for a concert in Switzerland. Next year in March they're finally coming. I still can't believe it, but I've already bought my ticket and I'm holding it right now in my hand and I swear I'll so gonna cry. It's gonna be a very special moment.
i live in the same town as these guyyss and they are my heros they taught me to love my hometown and im going to ecu like seth and i really cant wait, these guys are the best and i love them.. concord nc(: thumps up for these great musicians :D
god this is such a good song, these guys just bring such soul and life to their music, they tell a story with each song and they tell it differently each time through different live performances. I was always taught when playing/singing to tell the song's story so that it pertains to people listening so that they may make their own relationship to that song....these guys nail it
My son introduced me to theAvetts. I am 65 but they are my very favorite .went to my first concert last year and plan on repeating that exciting experience.So happy to find such moving lyrics in so many of their songs.Hope you continue to entertain us for many years!!
Exactly! A great example of that is some of that old Dock Boggs stuff like "Sugar Baby." It's so gritty and dirty and raw (recorded back in the 30s), but it just adds to the feel and emotion of the song.
I'm so proud you're North Carolinians; and one of you went to ECU? Did you ever hear of Skeet Creedmore, a professor there that did such great ballads and blue grass?
