I heard this song on Bluegrass Junction in my truck..... TURNED IT UP! My goodness what clarity of vocals and an exceptional tenor lead.... one of the few with such clarity and you can feel this song all the way thru your heart. I am NOW an Authentic Unlimited Fan because of this song. Every vocal, instrument, and timing is absolutely perfect and the song is beautiful depicting the soul and genre of Bluegrass Music today. Hat's off to these guys for putting together this masterpiece of a song. PS - And Jerry Douglas put his magic of subtle notes in there to top it off.

Hey brother, I knew that sounded like Jerry, but where was he? I never saw the dobro! I just stumbled onto this band, but a long time Jerry Douglas fan. Thanks for saying what I wanted to say, but you said it better! Such purity. But where is J. D.? Glory to God! ☝️✌️

Jerry Douglas is not a member of Authentic Unlimited. He played on the song for them and although this video seem's to be a live performance the sound is actually not from the live performance.

@@danielbrott406 I hear ya, man. I thought of that but it sure looks like they're playing it. Lol...I'll watch again. I didn't think they would just patch in his part, which they could do, it's their recording. Very interesting thought. Anyway, thanks, I love Jerry & know he's not in the band. But he gets around! Lord bless. ☝️

I absolutely cannot stop listening to this song! So much talent on that stage-and that VOICE!! Gives me goosebumps!

Such beautiful lead vocals and solid harmonies along with exceptional musicianship. Now that’s some solid bluegrass right there! Outstanding performance! 🎶👏

John, you are a great singer and guitar player! God bless you!

Wow. This is probably the most beautiful blue grass song I’ve ever heard. The singing is just out of this world and the musicianship is perfect. Well done. 10/10.

Authentic Unlimited has the best vocals in Bluegrass. They're fantastic musicians also. I keep listening to this song and never get tired of it. Love his voice!

I am family members with Eli

Ya they’re one of my favorite treats when it comes on the radio. They’re awesome

This group has the potential to be one of the greatest ever. Awesome vocals not to mention solid instrumentals. Accomplished musicians and spot on vocals.

Man...THIS is what a BlueGrass song sounds like 👍.

I knew this young man since he was about 10 years old and hadn’t touched an instrument. My goodness, John!! You have developed an incredible voice and mastery of your instrument. Congratulations on becoming such an amazing artist! Bryan

OMG, when he hits that high note I get chills everytime. What a voice, and hell of a band. I just bought this and other songs yesterday by this band. I've played this song a dozen times in 2 days.

Honestly a great song all around!

This is Bluegrass song of the year in my heart!!!

Everything about this song is as perfect as it can get.

John has a spectacular voice. I heard him singing "Jonas" on Bluegrass Junction the other day and was truly impressed. Great band with tight harmonies and outstanding musicians.

Wow John! You have been very blessed with a beautiful talent and a great family! How many would quit their jobs and move to Hyden, Kentucky so the whole family could attend the Kentucky Bluegrass and Traditional music school? That’s deep love and support, and boy did it pay off. I hope you win a Grammy!

If there is a perfect song, this is it. There will be a lot of tears shed over this one. It is effortless, gentle and easy. It immediately brings you to sweet memories or a memory yet to be.

It doesn't get any better than this . Man they are great

John, Eli, Stephen, Jerry and Jesse! Fantastic music from fantastic musicians

Beautiful voice

Not sure why this song isn't being played everywhere. Just amazing. My fav song.

They play it on Bluegrass Jct. alot.

What a beautiful tenor voice

Oh My Goodness! This is the best Bluegrass Song I have ever heard! So very beautiful, singing, music. Just gorgeous.

These guys are nothing short of GREAT!!!!

I live just a few miles from Eli and I have seen these guys twice at an annual fundraiser for a small rural community school. Not mention Jerry, Eli and Stephen with Quicksilver. These guys are as nice as they are talented, and we are lucky to have someone as talented and humble as Eli in our community. Hope you can make it again next year. I will be there lord willing.

Congratulations!! To Authentic Unlimited!! 2023 Nashville IBMA Vocal Group & New Artist Of Year! IBMA Bluegrass Music Awards! Phenomenal job at the Bloomin Bluegrass Festival Farmers Branch 🚜 Tx Also !

Been a while since I’ve heard a song that gave me chills. This one got me.

This is an outstanding performance by the whole band with such beautiful harmony. I love this song and I can't stop listening to it. John's voice is awesome. I also love the songs , Hannah and Jonas . Thank you one and all!!

I love this song. That guy sure can sing and I love mandolin music.

I love the song and have played it over and over again! Great vocals, great lyrics, great musicians, beautiful music. It always brings on a few tears.

Where have you all been my whole life? Phenomenal!

My understanding of this is God called her home. Beautiful song and performance.

Heartfelt... tenderness, regret but no animosity. Perfect expression of a relationship that doesn't work out. Only the good lord knows!!! Thank you for this healing

I listen to this over and over.

What a voice! I like this song very much.

Absolutely tremendous mandolin player. Harmonies make me love everybody. Just a rush of sparkling talent. I thoroughly enjoyed "Tall weeds and rust." Marvelous harmonies. Dennis Brayshaw Tampa, Florida.

Beautifully done! What a fantastic group and the lead vocals are stunning.

One of the most beautiful songs i have heard. Absolutely perfect

I’m in similar awe listening to this as the first time I heard the Steeldrivers on Pandora before Stapleton blasted off. This song and this ensemble has no choice but to transcend in a similar way. Excited for bluegrass and for AU.

Beautiful song albeit heartbreaking. Great music and vocals.

Wow! Talk about being taken back in time! Oh boy, i hear some Keith whitly, Ralph Stanley, Tony Rice, and Ricky Skaggs. Very well done! Keep it up.

My new favorite song.

I absolutely love this group. Their mix of harmony and playing of instruments is perfect! I haven't heard anything they have done that I didn't like!

I love this one so much!!

This should be at the top of the charts! Thus I am proven right that degeneracy is the scourge of our time, people love it. Great playing!

​@@swampshepherd Not Ireland. America comes from Ulster. That's our people. Mostly English, but the people of Ulster come in very close, EXTREMELY influential in American culture and life, anyone with actual American roots who say they have Irish ancestors likely have zero Irish ancestors and are actual Ulster Scot, uslter is IN Ireland, but they aren't of the Irish people, they are Scots. Another word for the Ulster Scots is "Scot -irish". But I hate that term because it confuses people. Our history has been systematically obfuscated.

Absolutely beautiful, vocally and instrumentality

Super Great bluegrass.....you go guys. !!!

Amazing voice!! Such pitch and clarity, tight band

Jerry, Jesse and the boys are absolutely amazing. Tremendous vocals and instrumentals! They will be at Bluegrass First Class in Asheville in Feb 2024. I have been to this festival for many years and it is one of if not the best festivals anywhere. It is inside the Crown Plaza hotel there. For those who do not know, Jerry, Eli and Stephen were in the Last Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver band when Doyle retired. Jesse and John joined and the results you can hear!!!

Just saw you guys in Pigeon Forge yesterday. Awesome show. Amazing harmony and playing.

My wife and I saw the same show,if ever there was a perfect band, these guys are IT! I didn't know a band could play live at their level of perfection. Love to see them next year, same place.

The journey, the Sounds, the Bros..and the Dividends ❤... Just How Blessed We All Are ❤ 💯. Just Blown Away ❤ 😇.

Absolutely 100% perfect. Great job! Thank you!

The Meador family is loaded with talent. Check out John's brother Jesse in Kentucky Just Us. Jesse won the national banjo picking contest in Kansas year before last. He is a songwriter/vocalist/banjo picker.

This song is simply beautiful. I have enjoyed it so much. Would love to open for y'all if you ever need somone who loves to play guitar and sing country/folk music. I also have lots of friends thta love bluegrassy/folk music:)

I hear a lot of Tony Rice inspo in this song

3:21 vocals for days

Jerry Douglas on the Steel guitar (Dobro) ... There is NOTHING better than the sound of Dobro....there, I said it.....fight me haha

Hey Vince Gill. Check this dude out.

Love the song however since only the good Lord knows why she left seems to make you think that he took her home! Probably why the song sounds so melancholy. Just a thought

Where did they hide Jerry Douglass and his dobro ?

whose is playing the reso?

Maaaaaaan... 😶

Hi

Who’s playing dobro?

So where was the dobro player?
