Stumbled here and happened upon the wombat guy, who is behaving splendidly. Tune sounds great ya’ll!

[zodiaccghb]

Truly the new sound of the old sound. How I wish they could have lasted longer than they did.

[dafuzzymonster]

got mad respect for anyone who can sing and play fiddle at the same time, that shits like having a stroke

[johnandersen]

Jim Miller. You were the top of the top. Ended there and died there. My deepest respect.

[taylormorris_]

Jesus, how adorable is Tatiana leading the dance here! I love how she "calls" instead of sings, proper ho down style.

[theoldonesarethebes]

Back again, years later, still brilliant 🙂

[barnjam]

Best version I’ve heard……listen to it over and over

[GaZonk]

the girl sings in the perfect traditional style - fantastic

[leonmydarling]

The single most delightful music video online  - who dares to deny it?

[Ceolskog]

Lol, first saw this video about eight years ago, and the guy with the bycocket hat and cello still cracks me up.

[fractuss]

Mr. Miller is a rock solid rhythm section.

[samorr]

I am still in love with Tatianan Hargreaves.

[jonboshears]

I still think the movie crystal has the best rendition of the song. Makes me cry everytime I hear it. When you hear it like this it doesnt have the sorrow effect, it has a more "your loss and Ill be fine" vibebto ke. Great job on this though.

P.s. if you have never eatched Crystal w/ Billy Bob Thorton you should make a ooint to do so. Awesome movie!

That weirdo in a robin hood hat circle bowing the cello is one of the reasons I love old time music so much. There's no hard formula for it, a cello doesn't disqualify a group from the bill, second fiddle can play a viola, clawhammer the banjo, throw in a mandolin that doesn't have f sound holes, maybe even a snare if you want to get weird... shit, as long as you make them old time songs sound good you're doin' god's work.

[wernerspitzenberger]

it always makes me SING along with HER phantastic, infectiolus

[TheScotter]

Sounds like we are on a musical journey . Rhythm just trudges on through! And yes the smiles. They are having fun. I can’t stop listening

[petroglyph]

I listen to this over and over again. Love the energy and style.

[lemvawter]

I absolutely love the little smile Bruce gives when Rushad hits a minor chord at about 2:33. You can tell he thought it was cheeky and cool.

[dmoon]

Mm!
That's sangin...
Thanks fer sharin 👍

[emilyzimovan]

Best live tune ever!  I just keep coming back to it over and over!  It's just such a fun song, and they look like they are having fun playing it!
