Dave Matthews - Gravedigger

[davidseidi]

Fantastic Cover.



[jellyfishiscool]

this song made me cry.

[TheAfterlifeFilms]

this song actually made me hurt...hurt like i havent hurt in a while...death is a mystery but i feel like the death of ur soul is much worse

[12quinns]

Willy and Dave should sing it together

[iluvzexion]

My friends and I are making a music video to this song. Most of it is about a young girl committing suicide. They said they wanted it based off of me, and so our video is about my fragile health and multiple failed suicide attempts. We're making it to try to help people think twice about suicide. The video should be up in a few months.

[quaecky]

try this version, the guys backing me up up had never heard the song before

[Mixhalios]

Great song! Amazing photos! Credits are appreciated!

[GorillazPRO]

Ring around the rosey

Pocket full of posey

Ashes to ashes

We all fall down

I love this

[xxxginarosexxx]

[J0ELSTJ0HN]

[Guardian99100]

My world history teacher played this during a video about the black death. Gave me chills.

[sexyprincess1236]

[TheDemonStr]

willie nelsons is the best

[Nosfurat]

legend baby, fuckin legend!!!

[Journeyer2theEast]

in life nothing is guaranteed... cherish it 

[hwcx95]

acoustic version is so much better than the norm

[ThePapaPimp]

I went to Philmont High Adventure Scout camp, and one of the staff at the camps sang this, and made this version sound awful, and this version is great. Good ol' "Ugly"

[Tmaximus1]

6 people must be blind

[AnuxeL]

@Tmaximus1 Finding a computer, turning it on, getting to Youtube, finding this video and specifically misclicking the dislike button due to blindness is quite the feat.

[bwmusmc]

@Tmaximus1 or def

[MaryDownpour]

The pictures and music are both beautiful. Thank you for sharing them :)

[Iyrsiiea]

This is the only version of the song that sounds right to me.

[Godspine]

I love this song and its been awhile since I hear this song. Still sounds fresh to me.

[chloe3018]

i flip like you turtles youtooooooob

[cleversammy]

ring a round of roses

pocket full of poses

ashes to ashes

we all fall down

(this is damn epic makes me want to cry

[BOBMARLYRULZdontwory]

this is my funeral song

[jesamabin]

@BOBMARLYRULZdontwory haha dude me too, i was drunk at my cousins wake and i made my brother sign a piece of paper saying he would play it at my funeral. he made me sign a piece of paper saying i would steal his body from the morgue and give him a viking funeral... i hope i die before him

[BOBMARLYRULZdontwory]

@jesamabin haha

[WeCamefortheDead]

This song was played at my girlfriend's cousin's funeral. He was only 19 years old.

His father wanted this song to be played at his funeral. Instead, his father had to play it at his son's funeral.



[zali33333]

it makes me shiver...

[meeraelmarmoora]

I would rather be cremated, then poured in the ocean so I could be one with the rain.

[TheDeadandHowling]

simply beautiful...the song and art combined..nuff said

[A0productions]

Gravedigger

When you dig my grave

Could you make it shallow

So that I can still hear Dave...

[kungenchrille]

@A0productions

HA! fucking A' thats great. ;D

[BubblegunNoGum]

@kungenchrille He just copied and pasted though. This comment was posted 5 months ago on the AOL sessions video of this song.

Gotta say though, this is what top comments should be like. It has something to do with the song, not the dislike bar or a penis or w.e

[sammyviolin]

there is a going a good reason why 6 people didnt like this

this song is so depressing that their eyes became watery and they missed the like button

[sammyviolin]

this song is the most depressing son ive ever heard

nothing can beat this song this depressing

[eirdeGH3]

I don't understand how anyone can dislike this beautiful song.

[eoinue]

this song gave me great comfort when i a lost in my family thank you david matthews

[breenVA]

I'm a great big fat Willie follower, but this is better, but I understand the production value and constraints of Willie's.

[PikeN1kes]

Lol Monster Trucks

[nightfrailer]

Pictures on this one are so freaking amazing. And the acoustic version is so much better than the full one.

[MiddleWelder]

Funny how four people accidentally hit the "dislike" button

[MrGoboka]

@MiddleWelder Now that's pretty bad because the like button is twice as big as the dislike, maybe because YouTube knows that this video is gonna be more liked than any other.

[MrKML91]

@MiddleWelder then now 10, maybe they blink or drunk ;o?

[Kawaiskii1]

why isn't this song ranked #1 in 500 greatest songs?

[BeefSatan]

that is most excellent...

[KINGMJ1990]

dudes this is Dave's song..!

[SasuNaru04482]

I like it more when Willie Nelson sings it though this isn't bad

[LucyParrMusic]

So haunting. Beautiful.

[bisalabisa2000]

Ultra tremendous

[doraru]

Louis Carey's is the best version

[PerfectVibes]

Poetry.

[starr522]

I will not dis respect Dave Matthew' s rendition. Great!!!! But I relate to Willie Nelson' s more.

[eviljayne]

I love this song

[ubrew12]

Honestly, I just think this is a song sung by someone who is going to die, and is P**sed off about it. That's what makes it so universal: We're all singing this song, every second of every day. Hey, God: after I die, I want to 'feel' the rain. Make it happen, Gravedigger...

[vickiesimp]

I don't know why I like this song so much,it's kind of morbid,great video by the way

[BlackhawksRBallin]

How can 3 people dislike this? maybe they just missed the like button.

[ArmyOfOne313]

@BlackhawksRBallin No they disliked it because they don't like it, people have different opinions

[menschikzlc]

@PanRevo Thats the name of the song, not the band :D:D:D

[Bodhi7114]

gives me shivers down my spine, great!!!

[ristesky]

Gravedigger

When you dig my grave

Could you make it shallow

So that I can feel the rain

Gravedigger

[cedarhawk]

@ristesky

Congratulations, you've proved you can recite what *everybody here* came to listen to. Seriously, what's the point of that -_-;...

[enjoilova58]

chills

[espiraldefuego]

Sencillamente sublime !!

[kakky231]

This song would be perfect for the last Harry Potter movie... Especially since it's so much darker than the rest.

[djguy100]

One of the very best songs by an amazing artist

[Spadge5000]

@djguy100 i accidentally thumbs down your comment, sorry. great song!

[TheEmpress666]

This makes me feel better about my Cleisthenes essay :) Love this version!

[MelLeeDark]

Perfect Video! :p

[CassimaPwnsWoW]

This is the third "Gravedigger" version I have saved to favorites. Amazing song.

[stikkersvin]

2:04 so beatiful

[shintweek]

At first I was like , this is just another stupid fan vid, but when I gave it a chance I realized you ARE an incredible photographer. Keep it up man! We need more of you!

[billmerritt5562]

i love this song

[flaeke]

Great Images guys!

[tenofivelips]

Beautiful, thank you :)

[DrAbstracked]

The guitar work on this track is phenomenal i didn't know that they had a guitarist like this I'm definetly gonna listen to them more often.

[adamgrosskopf]

@DrAbstracked  dave is the guitarist

[pseudogenesis]

@adamgrosskopf Dave is the singer AND one of the guitarists.

[acousticeye55]

Dave Grigger! When you Grigg my Dave.

[brunaxloveyouX]

@acousticeye55 omg that was so funny

[acousticeye55]

@brunaxloveyouX Glad you liked it :)

[bookworm2613]

I think people who kill other people ought to be shot in the face. Then, whoever shot them should say" there! How do YOU like it?" course that's just my opinion, so tell me what you think of it.

[doucheonu]

@bookworm2613 if you shot em in the face, they wouldn't know if they liked it or not you dumb bitch

[krishollow]

@bookworm2613 but then the person who shoots him will be shot... then again... and again... did you think this through?

[sebleloop]

Killer! :)

[Voltage1919]

The photographs really make this song come to life.

[ColeColeification]

this song makes me wanna murder some innocent people just to watch there loived ones cry !

[equinox627]

@ColeColeification why kill innocent people. it doesn't make me want to kill anyone, but it does make me want to look at the sky while it's raining and ask why.

[AsaphProject]

@ColeColeification wow

[fiviifjj]

oh my effing god ... i just got high with this song ! love you Dave ! \m/

[KinkySlevin]

This song is sick. It can make you a drug addict just with its lyrics.

[hammerman7777]

This song is GREAT--when Willie nelson sings it! This version is BAD!!

[Raynamay2000]

It is a great song love it and the pictures are nice but this song and the people the song talk about are irreplaceable

[sexybunny1111]

It just makes me sad.... This song is so deep and serious, it makes me think of a lot of sad things.

[sexybunny1111]

In my class, we were watching because of Winn-Dixie and when they showed Otis, my teacher told us it was Dave Matthews. I think he plays the guitar beautifully so I searched his music and I truly love this song.

[chocolatemuffins1]

life goes on...

[LookingGlassInc]

I love this song, especially the acoustic version!!!  Dave Matthews is once again simply superb, one of my all-time favorites!! :D

[LookingGlassInc]

I love this song, especially the acoustic version!!!! One of my all time faves!! :D

[nessman8]

GREAT SONG!!!

[masochistsluvr]

This song is sad, but it just has something about it that makes you like it, its one of those songs you have to close your eyes and listen to so you can really feel it and see it and hear it

[dlteodorian]

Strong lyrics.....Sad...song....indee­d no parent must bury his own kid...is the biggest tragedy ....Blessing upon you all....and i remember you that all the persons we lost...are in a new better world..near to God...and we will find them one day...yes this is heaven ..being again with people you love and lost....

[warmadar]

In my opinion Nelson's version is better! Matthews sings like a gay in this version ...

[shreddthepow]

@warmadar wow your fucking retarded IoI mathews sings this with so much passion and emotion, if thats gay to you then go Iisten to some cookie cutter pop buIIshit

[chocolatemuffins1]

@warmadar are you kidding me, dave matthews actually cares about his music while willie nelson just sings the song.

[onetthome]

Willie Nelson's is terrible.

[NMG4Life]

@onetthome It's fuckin' Willie Nelson... get the fuck out of here.

[rebelcowboy98]

@NMG4Life i no its willies n he does a hella of a better job

[OfficialGrizzlyDub]

@NMG4Life it aint wille nelsons man hes does a great job but dave wrote this stop bein a inconsiderate fuck and grow some real appreachiation for music ya dick head

[NMG4Life]

@OfficialGrizzlyDub I never said it was Willie Nelson's songs. I said "It's fuckin' Willie Nelson", as in how can you not like Willie Nelson. You obviously took the statement differently, and too seriously. Also, I've been studying music my entire life and I think I know what true appreciation of music is, "ya dick head."

[thegoodz07]

@onetthome Learn some respect.

[DungeonSF]

@onetthome they both are excellent I M R O !

[graalxx]

I preffer willie's version

[Welljusthi]

strong lyrics.

[MaReekaka]

amazing

[zali33333]

i think Dave is better as Willie

[AndreyaPolo]

best version and video - this song makes me want to stare at the sky in the rain and cry to heaven ..

[ethniclandmark22]

oh jesus...............

[babysmur69]

finialy under stood it. umm dave matthews should not have to pay someone unless he hired them. thats like you writing a song, and then me dancing to it, and charing you for dancing. he didnt hire them, they werent doing it for money.

[ferkco]

I feel Mr. Matthews and his record company should pay this gentlemen who created the visuals, a value added fee well for adding value to this song. They should be happy people care enough about his song to spend a little time even making it better. That is my comment. Mr. Matthew's and said record label also owes a value added fee to organized religion for laying the ground work for this inspirational song. Who owes who is determined by those that right the laws I guess..

[babysmur69]

i feel that Mr. Ferkco should speak english.

[borcz666]

brilliant text of the song

[lukyguy77]

this song really helped me out when my grandmother died.

[2222melissa]

This song just starts to make you think about the sad things in your life, or at least mourn them. Dave Matthews does a great job on this song. It just seems to touch ones heart in a way that only music can.

[R3C0NUN1T]

i agree that is important

[qwackfartz]

I always thought and always will think that music should be free. This song is an obvious example of how I'm right. It's for the people, for anyone who has ever lost someone or died without ever acoplishing their dream. You can't put a price on that.

[dawelch02]

Oh yeah, qwackfartz. Definitely. The people who entertain us should do so for free. And maybe people flipping burgers for us or fixing our cars or creating businesses or working down at the insurance office or constructing our housing or protecting us domestically and overseas or saving our lives in the back of an ambulance.... maybe they should all work for free eh? Go hug a tree and cry you hippie. If it were up to people like you we'd still be living in grass huts and caves. Thx rijogo

[OvertlyRevolutionary]

I love walking thru cemeteries...the older the better...looking at the headstones. Guess I picked up this strange interest in Gibraltar, where many headstones were from the Battle of Trafalgar. I only want to know where you found the cemetery with the angel lying stretched out over top of the crypt! How beautiful! And how SAD! That person was obviously INCREDIBLY loved and MOURNED for a long time! Where is that cemetery?! Great video! A really touching, sensitive post!

[bestbeastalivebitch]

god dave is amazing i cant wait to go c him again

[ferkco]

Are you sure you don't want too impose a little censorship cause the subject matter makes you uncomfotable? I think so?

[kbweiss14]

shut up about copy right... we just want to hear a song....

[dbz71620]

I speak in part for the Dave Matthews band, and believe you have violated a copyright on this song. I ask that it be immediately removed.

[Slicevicious]

How about.... No. :>

[skatecam1248]

im pretty sure some1 speaking for Dave Matthews band wouldnt have a name like dbz71620, and idk y they would care this is great publicity

[dbz71620]

@skatecam1248 I know, I just thought it would be funny if he actually did remove the video, because, as it says in his description "If the copyrights owners wish to oppose to its exibition on youtube, just leave a message on the video, and i'll imediatly remove it!". Just seeing how stupid this guy was XD

[SaraAnne01]

I love this song and this band. Very nice video to. i really enjoyed this. I won tickets to go see dave matthews band. Come to find out it was a tribute band. *Blah* i wasn't to happy about that. but excited to go and see how it turns out. Keep up the good work. :) Love from Ohio!

[2DollarBOB]

This is one of his greatest songs

[photon72]

I cant understand why Lady gaga and the other clowns are always at the top when there is great song like this one out there.

[SaraAnne01]

This is one of my favs :)

[tiffanyspliffany]

I can honestly say, this song makes up for every dave matthews song that I hated growing up. one of my all-time favorites.

[OvertlyRevolutionary]

OMG! This is such a GREAT SONG! Nothing more to say...Except THANK YOU FOR POSTING!!!!

[Waffleman777]

People don't think of this but

How much different would this song sound without the Violin?

[dassenft]

i absolutely LOVE the bridge of the song... it is so damn amazing (the melody of the chords and the lyrics!)

ring around the rosey

pocket full of posey

ashes to ashes we all fall down

[weakestlink41]

[360Crosby360]

[latromster]

[psychegloom]

I LOVE this song, but it's so depressing! Makes you think of the inevitable.

[babysmur69]
