It’s sacrilegious to put an ad break in the middle of this song

The fact that they can execute a fade out LIVE is just outrageous.

@greyleaf

2 жыл бұрын

A lot of that was on the sound engineering. A few of the mics/instruments were turned down for the fade. But still, it's a really cool and unusual thing to see happen live, for sure.

As a live sound engineer, I appreciate the cred, but that wasn’t an engineer, these guys are professional at a level us mere mortals cannot comprehend. I’ve seen them live 3 times and know a guy who has mixed them. They are or were, one of the easiest groups to mix because of how perfect they sound already. Which is very rare. They have mastered dynamic control as a whole group.

@braidensutton8193

And on a side note, listen to the fade out. At the end of it you can hear Chris Thile drop a pretty clear “sss” if the mics were turned down something like that with him backing away from the mic wouldn’t have come through louder than the point they ended the fade. Especially with vocal compression and a high pass filter on the channel.

I'm almost convinced that these guys are all vampires with over a century of musical experience.

This has to be one of the greatest songs in the history pf music

First time I heard this song I was listening to it on headphones at work. I had to rush myself to the toilet and locked myself up there crying for at least 10 minutes. Still moves me every time I listen to it. Absolutely amazing.

What's so neat about it is that it's complex, but it doesn't feel busy. There are hundreds of 10 minute songs that feel extremely cluttered and busy (I.e. Dream theater, or almost any 70s progressive epic.) few have ever matched this when it comes to really long songs!

I always knew they were good players, but I saw them live recently. They’re really in a league of their own.

Paul Kowert tearing up at the end sums this up. What a performance. My whole body is a goosebump now

Perhaps the most beautiful song I've ever heard.

The ending to this song makes me cry like a baby. There is so much emotion in it.

My wife and I performed the "second act" of the song at a local music festival. Just my six-string uke and our vocals -- one mic. (I simplified it, obviously.) We had to practice it to death because it was so hard to keep my emotions in check.

I am greener than grass, and thanks to whoever recorded this so perfectly, l too know how you felt, feel, and will always feel, for this was perfect.

Here comes another night where I can't get a song out of my head! first time i heard this (which was this morning) I thought "oh, I've always loved this song"

I saw them perform this acoustically in the Mondavi center at UC Davis. It was one of the most captivating performances I've ever witnessed, instead of a drum set, Chris just jumped on the stage. These guys are just plain phenomenal musicians.

Every minute of this song is awesome. Each of the movements are positioned perfectly. The ending is superbly emotive. You really need to listen to it on good speakers.

This song didn't get stuck in my head, pretty sure it's stuck in my soul. That said, having an ad pop up at 9 minutes in interrupting one of the most beautiful parts of a song I've ever heard should be punishable by law. Especially one as obnoxious as a rice krispie treats ad. Sorry kids, you're cut off. We'll make cookies instead.

This is a masterpiece of a song. I have never seen talent and expertise showcased like this before. I searched this video out after hearing the studio version, and this live version never misses a note. Mind blowing

Im clapping, in case you cant hear me.

If you haven't had the chance to see them live, you're missing out big-time. I went for the first time in May of 2015 and it changed my taste in music altogether. There's really nothing like it, and describing it to the best of my ability still wouldn't do it justice. I'm seeing them again in June 2017 and I am counting down the days!

One of the only bands doing something truly new today.

The girl holding her head in her hands: we get you, we are you.

Thank God, these guys came together somehow! I can not express, how touching this music is. I´ve always been looking for bands that are as creative, as virtuoso, as open-minded to any kind of music style, as inventive and demanding concerning composition or arrangement and so good at playing together and creating atmospheres you can not withdraw from - like one big creature with five arms :-D They really fill a gap in the music landscape. They also prove that the more a musician listens to several music styles, the more inspired they are. They´re a real alternative to people who are tired of the radio...at least, the one in my area doesn´t offer any versatility.

It is an amazing feat to sing and play any lead on any instrument. I'm really not sure how Chris trained himself to do what he did here. It's utterly...(????) mind boggling

Heavy, heavy rotation for the 3 songs in one.....love the movement, the climax and the anticlimax.....I go on the roller coaster with them over and over again. Probably have listened to this over 100+ times now.... it has played in my house and or car none stop since about a week ago.

The end just brings tears to my eyes "I see an end where I dont love you like I can, cause Ive forgotten how it feels, amen" fuck man cmon where you gotts hit my feels so hard

There are no words. This is just amazing

Brilliance like this is so rare, it is such a relief to find.

A friend introduced me to this band a few years ago but never gave them a proper listen (Tbf I used to be an horrible metal elitist and refused to listen to anything but old school metal). Years later, only a couple of days ago I stumbled across this video and decided to finally give them a listen, especially since I outgrew my metal elitist phase 3 years ago and I love discovering all sorts of new music. I love this! It blew my mind, especially the final part of the song, it's so beautiful. I can't believe I missed on this for the last few years.

This is honestly one of my two favorite songs ever. It never gets old-- the more I listen to it, the more of it I can appreciate!

Had the chance to see this live in houston at the house of blues...absolutely amazing musicians. They brought me to joyful tears many times that night
