I know you always get people like me asking you to watch their covers and you probs won't watch any but if you just watch one maybe you should watch mine because i am playing tambourine with my foot? lol but seriously if you get a chance can you check out my cover
I love this bloody band. So mother fucking much. There isn't even one day that goes by when I don't listen to them. And there will probably not be a day in the future when I don't.
@Boylabel You are so right. I refuse to go to all seated venues as if the music and atmosphere are right, you should feel like dancing, no matter how badly.
Solist is actually doing the most work here, singing ,guitar and drum thingy :) Awesome work! Good luck and keep it up :) Just love this song!!! Cheers!
This performance of Mumford and Sons was at the SXSW 2009 Daystage before they hit big in America. Shortly after, they came back to Austin for a sell out crowd.
@downgrade923 no actually thats just how banjos are, they have only 5 strings and the tuning peg for the top string is located near the 5th fret, and the other 4 are on the headstock
Get off your arse folks and enjoy the music, I honestly feel insulted listening to this music and watching this display... no f...king excuse!!!! Serioulsly!!!
Why is the crowd so still? This doesn't make any sense... Not one person is grooving. It is true with this whole series - the most emotional songs I have ever heard with a beat impossible to not groove to, and everyone is still........
@xpkkingx it's the summer of 2009 (good times!) which is pretty much before anyone even knew about them. and plus it's sxsw, so mainly new artists. it wasn't until that september that i found out about em so i can't really complain about the turn out. quite cool for the few who were there though!
@lothow hmm, i don't think fully understood what you just said so i'm just going to... oh wow, look at that, two high rated in one video! :D two comments that happen to completely contradict each other
