Iron & Wine - Passing Afternoon (Live at Aquarius Records)

[TheLostAge]

Isn't he using other chords different from the recorded version?

[tyroneemail]

Where is his hangover monkey???

[spicyxlilxman]

@arnysow google "iron and wine chords [insert song name]"

[arnysow]

Absoloutly Spellbinding

[mprep789]

There are names across the sea.

[nictasticity]

great amazing artists get to smoke great effin ganja. 

[basketcase5295]

So basically the crowd just picked the setlist? I'm so jealous! I prefer him alone.

[Malosovich]

shame he didn't finish it.

[Dr666Love]

@Malosovich

I think he's kidding that he doesn't remember the chords, they are the same, repeating over and over...just a funny guy!)

[Malosovich]

@Dr666Love Yeah, but you know what I mean though. This was amazing and I can't find another life performance of it. Just makes the album version seem mute.

[Dr666Love]

@Malosovich

heh...I've thought you were dissapointed about his abilities of live perfomance. Personally I think he's not such a great musician, but he's got something more than just technique, for example what a great man he is. =D That's a point! Because he demonstrates what kinda sense of humour he's got, playing music, while other artists show their bodies(in details), playing music..._)))) 

[suicideofhappiness00]

I luhv his beard when i first heard this song, i never imagined he had a beard, but when i saw it, i was like oh my god, another thing to luhv about this guy<33

[mikailpa]

i was driving home from a trip... it was sunset... i was at the highway driving next to some wheat's field with the sunset on my left... and listening this song... can't describe the feeling...

[zackamundo22]

@mikailpa I used to drive home from my girlfriends house every night with fields all around me, and I'd roll the windows down and listen to the crickets with this cd. Sam Beam writes some of the most nostalgic and eclectic music I have heard to date. Makes me smile when I hear this cd.

[clairet19]

so i'm using my girlfriend's account to comment on this:

sam beam isn't just an amazing songwriter and musician but also an incredible person. its so obvious in his live appearances that in real life he's just as sweet, funny, and humble as his beautiful lyrics make him out to be. he's our generations greatest troubador, just like bob dylan was our fathers'

[ilikemusicandcake]

this man is the greatest

[Josssssshhhhhhhhhh]

Haha, he did this when i saw him at union chapel last week. He just mumbled '...soomething' instead of the lyrics and gave us this cheeky apologetic smile. Then at the end he said 'I don't practice much'. :)

[markjlombardo]

this guy. is the fucking man.

[camelspider99]

smoother then molasses, this man,

[watching19]

May this man never pass away.

[kidkillaforilla]

One of the greatest quotes ever; "Ah fuck it. It's a free show."

[cruegirl4ever]

this guy is awesome and has quite the sense of humor

[jetaimeviolist15]

This is my favorite Iron & Wine song. I absolutely love Sam Beam. He's just absolutely fantastic. ♥

[TamerahSkies]

Oh my God. I love him.

[dizuATTACK]

Oh Sam Beam. . . <3

this song always makes me sweetly melancholy.

[johnidavey]

haha. Sam Beam always has such a way of just totally smoking idiot audience members.

also, the man is truly a great American poet.

[0LittlemissLola]

wow, he takes his forgotten lyrics with such humor..he didn't get all freaked out about it. :) honestly prefer his live songs to recordings. :) love his music

[oxBUSHIDOxo]

I have to say that i have been having a hard time lately and this man, more specifically this series of videos, has made me forget about all these things...if even for just a little while. It's these small moments of true happiness that define life.

[Ewokoo]

'Like songs I never learned'

*Forgets lyrics*

Lmao, love this song.

[s241914]

why is he playing the guitar like that? it sounds better in the recording

[heichelbech111]

@s241914 It's called being a musician, not a CD.

[biogenie]

Would like to thanks Fox for promoting this great musician on House.. If not I would have never heard this great song. Cheers

[s241914]

@biogenie I KNOW

[beckysaidso]

he is seriously one of the greatest musician alive.

another amazing sam beam moment, I was at his concert about a year ago, at terminal 5, and someone yelled "freebird!"

and he goes "you get what you ask for bitches!!" and started playing it, right in the middle of his song.

god damnit i love him so much.

[lambdachi1826]

@beckysaidso : It was actually right before Sodom South Georgia. =) I was at this show too and it was better than amazing. Search Iron and Wine Freebird on here and you can see it for yourself. You clearly have taste in music!

[pavement27]

@beckysaidso He did the same when I saw him like a month ago...It was fucking fantastic...

[ChoadaLoad666]

hahah hes awesome

[shortbusoneohone]

look at how many albums he has PFF i wouldn't be able to remember all that

[cdphatty]

theres so many powerful lines in this song

[HpTwilightJb]

hahaha i think he was just kidding.. yeeah i agree with all of you HE'S AMAZING HE HAS A GRAT VOICE AND PLAYS THE GUITAR PERFECTLY.. he deserves the best on his career

[AquaOliver123]

@HpTwilightJb

love your username haha

[HpTwilightJb]

hahaha..thanks!

[aayatalii]

hahah "it's a group effort man"

love sam beam, he's a genius for sure.

and of course amazing life.

[NotoriousMandog]

Criticize him all you want for forgetting his lyrics, but he's still amazing and it was a very personal thing which can throw you off.

Also, nice catch lifeofbob.

[plellovision]

hah, Sam Beam is the man. I don't care if he forgot his own lyrics.

[angesha]

awsome.

[Kaljich]

You cannot compare live and studio version...in a studio people have endless opportunities to cut, edit and repeat the material but the live version is very much pretty different...this is a very nice version and there is no doubt at that... Cheers!

[gavroche67]

the accompaniment at the guitar really suck on this version...much prefere the album version

[613prettyinpink]

Absolutely gorgeous song. It sounds so much more soulful live, even if he did forget the lyrics a bit. Thanks for posting this! :)

[grimdefeat92]

hes awesome no matter what

so relaxing

[xtina1982]

this is one of my favorite songs.

and THIS is one of my favorite versions. :)

[lifeofbob]

Awesome that the last line he does remember is "songs I never learned."

[cdphatty]
