Beautiful to see the guitars reaction to every single iteration of Andrew with his violin. He is like "wow..that was cool!" Every. Single. Time.

I love at 4:52 how Andrew Bird's riffs got the guitarist smiling

[basillisk]

Somehow this is at least ten times better than the album recorded version, I clearly love it.

When we can meet together again in public, my friends, make an Andrew Bird experience top of list. Saw him in the lobby of the MCA in Chicago and in a theater in Wisconsin. Both life changing evenings. Can't explain it but be there if you can. And take your children. Those were the best nights we've ever had.

This man is so underrated it's criminal.

[Louis-zcim]

Amazing tune . Could listen to this everyday.. easily. And I will !

[heathermcalister]

I love how he clearly feels the music, he's a wonderful live artist. :)

Agreed, Andrew Bird is so well versed in all forms of music. Just listening to this song, I took a journey through the Smoky Mountains to Trenchtown to Johannesburg.

My favorite song on the album. What a pro. God, I got to see him live someday soon!

[billyjack]

One nincompoop disliked this. Not bad. Andrew Bird makes some of the most amazingly beautiful music I've ever heard. So much variety and it seems like he gets better with each album.

[salad]

Absolutely love this version, thank you!

[ansernivisschnegans]

He is a brilliant musician...let's face this fact...😊

Danse Caribe

You were a shameless child
Bandied by stiff cross currents
Anything but mild
Yes and no just simply weren't
Invented yet
Oh yes oh no

Then one day you'd had it
Exiled your close advisors
Ousted your dog-eared rabbits
You're through with pacifizers
You're through with pacifizers now

Here we go mistaking clouds for mountains
Here's the thing that brings the sparrows to the fountains
Here's the thing that makes you run for the highlands
Here we go mistaking clouds for mountains
Autonomy

He should make more live concert DVDs. So much of his focus is on the live experience and while I love his albums, a few DVDs would do better justice to the many qualities that make him awesome

[shannonmcintyre]

I wrote him. He's known for a while

[tanish]

anyone know who the drummer, bassist and guitarist are?

[dm]

underrated? not at all. not well known enough is what you mean.
