  • AMAZING!!!!!!!!'

  • When the heck did he change over to the drum sticks that were under his right arm? See if you can see it at 2:50

  • That banjo player definately gets laid the least...

  • @madguitar1086 I have too admit, that guy is crazy at banjo!

  • And I thought the studio version was Godly.... Damn

  • What is that thing behind Marcus at 2:57?

  • @AwesomeWithaQ looks like a fire exit sign :P

  • @AwesomeWithaQ How did you spot that? It's an exit sign with an arrow and a stick man I think, seen through the mike leads,

  • @terrybriody I have no idea. It just caught my eye and then I realized I didn't see it anywhere else in the video. So i was curious :P

  • i just had a very sad yet incredibly happy point of ecstasy...

  • they re so much more fucking badass when its not all acoustic . folk n fucking roll

  • Marcus's voice is amazing

  • The multi-talented Marcus Yumford**sigh**

  • What a band!!! i dont understand how some people can get away with calling themselves artists ahem GAGA!! compared to this band she is complete shite

  • is it just me that thinks its so hot when marcus is all sweaty and wet??

  • They are an amazing band! how i so wish to see them! if i was there i would be crying my heart out!

  • Mumford used to open for the Maccabees. That is simply hilarious.

  • I Hopped a fence and met Marcus.

    almost died.

    WORTH IT.

    AMAZING.

  • @AwesomeWithaQ Seriously?

  • @ballistaking29 indeed. At Not So Silent Night :D

  • @AwesomeWithaQ Wow that would be amazing!

  • @ballistaking29 It was crazy! Star struck to the max.

  • @AwesomeWithaQ I would be too!

  • Marcus can put his baby inside me. Lol....

  • They are so friggin awesome aaagghhh

  • This song

  • i like how marcus practically runs off stage when he's done singing. he's soo shy. soo adorable

    

  • @miiiilllk How so?

  • i love this song! :)

  • they are so amazing i can't even explain

  • Nice shirt, Ben! ;)

  • The passion they put into their music is incredible. This song is so harsh and unyielding. It's actually angry. I'm amazed. They amaze me.

  • It sounds sooooo perfect, almost to close to the recorded version

  • mumford & sons opening for the maccabees...how i wish i was there, must have been epic :(

  • @miiiilllk You're a fucking moron, go die in a fire.

  • when marcus goes crazy on the drums, that is when i am at peace.

  • I'll be able to die in peace once I see them live.

  • @ALBINOpanda79 I just told my mom this!

  • their sound is just so raw. they write and perform music, for music's sake.

    i love them.

  • is Winston on Electric guitar? This is absolutely amazing. I love this song!

  • Wow the audiance sucks. I would cry my heart out if I saw them in person.

  • @sleziful Agree, very poor audience!! I mean the boys from the band brought great song, emotions & sweat and that's their reaction...

  • @rijeka8 I'm sayin'! It's obvious that it was a festival of some sort, most of these people probably never heard of them. Oh well, their mistake!

  • duh

  • like if you've cried while listening to a Mumford song before because it's just so good

  • This band is the only one who can make the banjo sound badass.

  • @dainius311 modest mouse

  • Wow, I didn't know he played drums too, I'm impressed.

  • @namdlefhtes absolutely, its amazing

  • THAT'S MUSIC

  • @MrRunkelkrug NOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • I get tremblings by this song.

    Wauw. Wauw. Wauw.

  • So much passion in their music.... Pure talent. Mumford and Sons <3

  • Wow, he really goes nuts on the drums!!! I can't wait to see them LIVE!!

  • @IantheSuperSaiyan They're drum brushes. Its so the drumming is softer.

  • @aholmes1991 Thank you

  • Anyone know what he is playing the drums with?

  • When I sing their songs I catch myself singing with an English accent.

  • @shardesia97 Once i started singing it in a scotish accent

  • No words.

  • this song is so dirty when my mom walked in i turned it to porn

  • Comment removed

  • thanks enjoy the maccabees haha

  • Who the fuck are the Maccabees?

    

  • My weakness is Ben in that shirt. .-.

  • @squeeeeeeeeeeeeee your telling me ... hmmmm<3

  • The Maccabees had to play after them??? poor guys...

  • goosebumps.

  • This surely is a Tootin tune and wwhen I play it on my record player it makes me think back to a time when life was so much simpler and even though we didn't have a lot we used to love chewin tobacco and filling the spittoon as we supped whisky and danced on the front porch as we played tunes on our banjos.

    But then our wifes would return from their shopping trips and puncture our happiness balloon with their sharp tongues.

    Happy days,Happy days!!

  • Seriously. Best song ever made.

  • I love this song, it's my Skyrim theme. x)

  • @rendros88 You are a total genious dude! :D

  • @MrAppomatox Yeah, the whole "one son vs those who want to take his freedom" theme pumps me up for some elf-slaying.

  • I love the banjo in this song it is so freaking great so is everything else i love the way these dudes jam

  • I cannot express my utter infatuation with Mumford & Sons.

  • Where was this show???

  • 3:22 to face what I've done, and do my tiIiii!i!iiiiIiIii1Iiiii!!iime­eee!

  • I was trying to decide what was missing from this performance... then I realised, the crowd are all standing still... Such and awful crowd! And as much as I love the Maccabees, I think I would have been jumping more to mumford and sons than them!

  • i thought that he was going to kill the drums at one point

  • Obsessed.

  • i try not to listen to them live because i just get waaay too jealous, that i'm not there. but this is just sensational!

  • Am I the only one lip syncing with passion?

  • @shardesia97 absolutely not!

  • @miiiilllk hahah, me too m8

  • am i the only one who feels like they come from medieval times?

  • Is it just me, or does it look like Marcus just spotted a banker out of the corner of his eye, and he is fixing on taking him out as soon as the song is done...

  • OMG I LOVE THIS SONG

  • what the duces is he druming with!

  • @magicbeards Jazz brushes. A lot of country drummers use them too

  • Awesome !!!

  • brilliant.

  • 3:25

    There's a REAL musician.

  • @Kingsburne We call them epileptics in my country.

  • @rendros88 LOL.

  • How r they not extremely famous and all over the radio?!!!

  • @staccato98 They are - at least in Denmark :)

  • @staccato98 RIGHT!? they should play more stuff like this. Not half the crap they do now.

  • Wow

  • seriously. these b'ys are amazing.

  • thank you, gentlemen. thank you. I am the daughter and granddaughter of Oklahoma dirt farmers . . . thank you for getting it.

  • My family went to California from the dust bowl. My Granny told me all the stories. I can relate. This song moved my soul. Thank you.

  • kittycat3346. It is about the killing of the man who took this families land. Came from The Grapes Of Wrath  by Steinbeck.

    It isn't said outright, just implyed.

    Hope this helps. God the emotion here is almost too much to watch if you had family like mine that had this dust bowl life.

  • Being a metal head, liking this song and music realy shows my musical variety. I like and appreciate music made by real artist with their instruments. Not by posers who just throw stuff together or by computers and auto tune

  • @xSILENTxBULLETSx I never would have thought I'd like this stuff since I'm into metal and what not, but these guys are simply amazing.

  • @WildWillyWalker yes they are.

  • Anybody else think that Marcus looks a little bit like Tom Hardy?

  • @Productionsism More like Stephen Fry donated his seed and has a child he doesn't know of...

  • this is real music. nothing else!!!

  • is this song about murder.....

  • Thank you!! By far my favorite song thus far...no mere words could possibly do it justice!

  • 4:15 ... the way his face muscles move...real emotion.

  • Comment removed

  • because of songs like this one here i become angry when people say 'today's music is shit' .

  • Amazing song. Thumbs up for crash cymbal rape.

  • Love it. When I first heard it, the song reminded me of Jack Marston from Red Dead Redemption. Lol

  • @FeelTheTide dude....yes

    

  • Steve, make a place in heaven for these wonderful guys!

  • god his voice is just pure sex in this song.

  • @meredithd95 unbelieveable, huh??? some of those faces he makes too!!!!

  • Winston in a tight pink shirt for some reason really gets me going

  • Why is the crowd sitting down? haha. I would be rocking out like crazy.

  • i got what they were talking about in the song but i really understood it when i started reading "The Grapes of Wrath."

  • COMMENT!

  • why not zoidberg

  • His voice is so angelic. I wish i had a boyfriend with his exact voice and he would cuddle me all night and sing me softly to sleep.

    Also what was the inspiration of this song?

  • @macandease This song is based off of the United States Great Depression back in the 1930's

  • @jmprunner Ahh i see.

  • @jmprunner More specific, he said he drew inspiration directly from John Steinbecks "The Grapes of Wrath" , a terrific book about the depression. Terrific lyrics as usual, Mr. Mumford.

  • @macandease the great dipression

  • @macandease like they said, the great depression. but also, more specifically, the book the grapes of wrath by john steinbeck. the band, especially marcus, are fans of steinbeck's work.

  • wow excelent performance... but you can really tell that was their last song. look how wornout they are

  • @themrjackelly

    Is that a problem?

  • This guy has such a real voice! sounds amazing even if he didn't edit it!

  • Ahhhh!! So effing good! And for the record, it's uncommon and difficult to play drums AND sing at the same time... damn...

  • No surprise that Johnny Cash is in the suggestions, only he could do the raw emotion of this song and not look campy.

  • It turned out wonderful! Ben's shirt! Amazing performance.

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!! until 4:28

  • This is my new favorite song ever. This whole album is just amazing. It has been a long time since I listened to an entire CD and was blown away by how good every song was. These men are amazing musical artits.

  • This, ladies and gentlemen, is what the great music of the new millennium sounds like.

  • @iampoopman

    i hope so, i hope....

    yet things are going more towards the gaga way :'(

  • @iampoopman Yes sir, Yes sir, they know what they've done, great music of the new millennium.

  • Have watched this way too many times in the last couple of hours. Ridiculously talented. Stunning lyrics, a gorgeous voice filled with emotion and a band that just love music. Argh chilling <3

  • thankyouverymuchwe'remumfordan­dsonsenjoythemaccabees

  • I always wanted to beat the shit out of a drum kit like that - looks cathartic.

  • they were the support band how???

  • @alexanderjpowell Nice job!! Great editing and great sound quality! Keep up the good work!

  • @Amazenizer my thoughts exactly

  • fantastic song. my favorite by them. also, i think the video was well shot, and very well edited, despite t not-the-best cameras. thank you mumford and sons for the song, and alexanderjpowell for posting the video.

  • They guys are so inspiring! best song! Best band!

  • godly

    

  • Marcus Mumford must get so much sex.

  • @jackbadman1

    seriously, I'd give it to him if he wanted it hahaha

  • @mariamariaa

    I don't normally play for that team, but I'd prolly make an exception here...

  • I still can't believe he played the entire beginning of that song with those drum sticks under his arm.
