The Fireplace: AA Bondy - "I Can See the Pines are Dancing"

[skatefarmerftw]

Please have a listen to my AA bondy cover!

[ibcentral10]

I always confuse this song with that one called "I can see that AA Bondy is so much better than the f'n Avett Brothers"

[Elootify]

There's some really annoying mic interference, that's probably where the dislikes came from.

[clintiusasparagus]

MY favorite version.. the one that can damn well keep your heart in check...

[Taiyed311fan]

this is one of my favorite songs by him. I want to go to his show at the Earl in Atlanta.

[scurt420]

just another song thats been sung before nothing special

[rocklobster910]

Great song, but I could do without the mediocre harmonica :/

[chipperthevinner]

For every video, there has to be those few people with ridiculous bad taste in music that decide to dislike just for the heck of it.

[camtoot]

So wonderful

[tyrantulaNZ]

two people suck . . .this is amazing!

[cesarscreamo]

There are 2 Bieber's fans

[WonderJman]

why am i crying

[thebookofjoy]

@WonderJman Because you could see the pines are dancing

[pressuredrop16]

god someone miced him so poorly. it makes the whole recording obnoxious. i just want to listen to him.

[rupman27isback]

bob dylan? lol

[hellshandfull]

This is possibaly one of the greatest folk musicians out there. I love his work, I have both the American Hearts album and When The Devils Loose album. I wish I could meet him, in a non stalkerish way, a musician to musician way. Lol.

[hnico1]

@hellshandfull

Go to his show - he worked the merch table after he played in Montreal and was more than happy to talk to other musicians (and fans). Damn good songwriter and comes across as a humble guy.

[hellshandfull]

@hnico1 I'd love to if he ever came anywhere close. I live in a small South-Eastern County in Kentucky.

[burchfield369]

@hellshandfull me too.. what county?

[hellshandfull]

@burchfield369 Leslie County, You?

[burchfield369]

@hellshandfull clay county

[drjamyma]

pussy

[soulmattress]

that was pretty annoying harmonica,hes not very good at all.Just my opinion though..

[whiteroom51]

@soulmattress Ah dude, his harmonica playing is fantastic

[unicorns3000]

This is my cousin<3

[oxygeninduced]

His mic placement really pisses me off in this recording.. Damnit! Great song, though.

[HumanAccount]

this guy is pretty good

[Matthodgeplaysmusic]

...WHY is this guy not getting the credit he deserves? Stupid Kanye West...

[emotionalterrorist]

he is famous...to all of us with good taste.

[DaysStrange]

@emotionalterrorist what do you mean, be specific please. I would really like to know.

[emotionalterrorist]

@DaysStrange I just meant that there is really beautiful music all around us. Sometimes you have to look under a rock to find it. But it's there. We are constantly being force fed so called "popular music" by people who only see it as a product. There are so many good artist out there that don't get exposure for reasons unknown.

[DaysStrange]

@emotionalterrorist thank you so much for the reply. And I definitely agree with you, This is truly beautiful ~

[emotionalterrorist]

@emotionalterrorist No problem. I filmed a short series with my three sons called Vampire Man. (you can find them on my homepage if interested) I used 2 of A.A. Bondy's songs in the last two parts. I kinda like the fact he isn't so well known. It's like only the cool people know about him

[DaysStrange]

@emotionalterrorist Thanks, I will definitely check it out! :) And yes, I like that a lot too about many great underrated artists, it seems to add an element of purity to their music. I feel like they themselves don't mind so much that their music is not heard on a wider spectrum because their purpose for making music is not for product.

[prettypragmatist]

@emotionalterrorist I was about to say the same thing.

[emotionalterrorist]

@prettypragmatist Plus, I see you are into Vonnegut and the Cohen Brothers??? Man, you got it going on!

[fransesca]

@emotionalterrorist well said my friend

[xadamryanx]

better than ryan adams.

[angelikapisadika]

because LOOK at who's ridiculously famous...

[guitargary75]

A. a. Bondy your magic is your live sound! This is where you need to move towards! Not that the studio stuff isn't good, but this is your sound!

[LACIPPO]

he's simply magic.

[backupnameplease]

[TheDonVidar]

[songmanslim]

[zampdachamp]

A real musician...saw him at my school. Incredible.

[heartabandoned33]

bob dylan influences maybe??? lol what an incredible artist though.

[jackjaw1994]

this is nice

[Caughtupinthemiddle]

why isn't he ridiculously famous?

[mldweenus]

@Caughtupinthemiddle cause people dont appreciate good music :(. its all lil wayne and lady gaga these days, psshhhh.

[cinderkig]

@mldweenus -implying all forms of good music aren't acceptable because everyone thinks like me & you. Pssssh. Nothing new, but oh well, after im done listening to Pepi Ginsberg, I'm bumping Lil Wayne & GaGa. People have likes & dislikes.

[Dirtbagging]

@Caughtupinthemiddle because he knows fame ruins things sometimes?

[Rawoogi33]

@Caughtupinthemiddle Because people are retarded and think that Kanye West and John Mayer are going to save our rock n roll souls. Very sad.

[mellowtonen]

@Caughtupinthemiddle my guess is that it's honest artistic music.

[topogigito]

Saw him play at the Echo, in los angeles this past Friday, i was in awe. Live is sooooooo much better, you can hear his heart pouring out. <3 !!

[Hairynipon]

I laughed at the fact that he has a B on his hand from playing a show

[BioConstruct]

I like this better than the album version. Not that the album version isn't also wonderful.

[freddiefernandez]

yea i would love to get a copy of this

[hearthis2]

Unbelievable. A masterpiece.

[Skipjack1965]

On Hell of a song that just speaks volumes. Terrific vid and post. Thank You!

Heard it this AM on Good Morning America.

[CassiRaye1]

=] i cant do nothing but smile. Thanks for making life a little easier Bondy!
