Alison Krauss & Union Station - Man of Constant Sorrow

[guyfihi]

I really like Ron Block on banjo. There are faster players, but he has such a full, meaty tone. And Jerry Douglas just rips the dobro always.

[TheWEEDY111]

NICE LANGUAGE MrHardnut. IT SAYS ALOT ABOUT

WHAT YOU PROBABLY ARE.

[YellowHand2003]

@MrHardnut? What you say? This woman was wailing this stuff out with Union when you were in diapers man; like last night?

[Banditoreo7]

@YellowHand2003 Folks, this song was written in 1928...anyone can do it and to say someone stole or didnt need to do it just...well, stupid. No one is "stealing" anything (spotlight, glory etc)...its a song my multitudes of people and who cares anyway. Dan and Alison do great versions of the song...just enjoy it and shut up

[morgankitty1]

who is the manger for this band ? someone needs to put a foot in his or her ass. there is no reason this talented band isnt making top 10 hits. how many groups have this kind of talent , seriously ?

[kwantoon]

@morgankitty1 Did it ever occur to you that maybe they're content with their already loyal fan base? Bands like this are better staying the way they are. With the influence of some scumbag greedy ass producer they're sure to suffer. I love em just the way they are.

[intensive40]

@morgankitty1 everyone believes they are a music expert now

[fullstrutn]

hardnut thats bluegrass each one has their own little spotlight ,she didn't take over the song!!!

[MrHardnut40]

why does allison feel the need to steal the spot light from dan when clearly she posted this when she saw that dan had hit it big and had gotten alot of hits on you tube !and now she wants to steal the credit shame on you alison go make your own hit ! and stop riding his coat tails try to be a winner not a video thief for your own gain imo you are a looser and just cus you can play a good fiddle doesnt meen your a good musition !

[HPNomad]

@MrHardnut40 What the hell are you talking about.

[kenstech]

@MrHardnut40

Moron. Allison isn't stealing anything. She is a superstar and I'm sure Dan felt honored to share the stage with her.

Go watch lady gaga or something.

[MrHardnut40]

@kenstech whatever yea shes a big super star ooooohhhh ! ask any one out here in so cal if they have ever heard of her! are you retarded ? but lay the same? on them about the song and they will say yea i know that song from the movie and when this song was first posted it was under dans name! and now its under alisons ! do the math you fuckin moron pussy comi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

[d1stmann]

Dan is a member of Union Station, as in, Alison Krauss and Union Station. They have been sharing the stage together since 1994.

[d1stmann]

Dan is a member of Union Station, as in, Alison Krauss and Union Station. He has been a member of HER band since 1994. Alison asked Dan to join Union Station after Tim Stafford left.

@jb2121100 in Clooney's defense he is from the K...

[satexguy1]

Was this from the "Fire on the Mountain" concert tour? Saw it in Austin, and sooo many great bands/singers. I wish I could find the whole show somewhere.

[266srm]

4 people got their private parts in the ol' threshing machine.

[Holinyx2003]

Thumbs up if you actually knew this was a Bob Dylan song

[dtstrick]

@Holinyx2003 this is NOT a Bob Dylan song! He recorded a version of it, but this is an old American Traditional song going back way before Bob Zimmerman was born!

[caolanonf]

@dtstrick Supposedly its originally Irish, was brought with some Irish families when they emigrated to America. So the legend goes.

[mashui99]

@Holinyx2003 Except it's not, it's much older.

[sisseeboy]

@Holinyx2003 ralph stanley recorded a version of this before ol bob was born son

[b679995]

ALLISON IS HOT !!!

[sisseeboy]

@b679995 amen to that

[b679995]

SUPERB !

[ludwigkicker]

Straight up !!... Alison is hot!! and one superb musician, I applaud her!!

I'd play for her any day!!

[colinbucci]

@BlueShoeWho Good one :)

[dirk2806]

[redneck44056]

Folks - you are listening to one of the best songs of all time performed by some of the best musicians to ever walk on this planet. The movie was great too.

[buckonz]

I'vwve said this before on another similar video, but the USA should decalre Alison Krauss a National Treasure!

[812edward]

I have this DVD. I love it.

[jessejames1x]

this was in louisville ky  kick butt

[bekindunlimited]

just seen them in concert in Dublin Ireland ..to say they were good is a gross understatement....they were simply fantastic Alison is in a league totally of her own ..the band were incredibly good ..they are true to their Bluegrass roots ,true to themselves and a total credit to the United States of America...I attended this concert with my 12 yr old daughter ,and we are both still on a high ..cant praise this concert enough ..only to hope that they come back to these shores very very soon

[hawaiiandobroblues]

@bekindunlimited

Says it all! :D

I saw them in London at the weekend. Fantastic.

[ecthelion314]

that quitaring after 0:49 is just amazing <3

[RCTPatriot75]

Is this at The Palace?

[MicrophoneAssassin13]

best version around!

[FANJG24]

Man this is the best version I've heard of this song. Earl Scruggs is just about the only one who can top a performance like this! Thank you for posting.

[kholden15]

In a way, I love that "O brother where art thou" exposed the masses to the wonder of bluegrass music. In another way, I am frustrated because there is so much musicality here and yet the majority of the comments reference a movie.

[trebor984]

@xXReC1214Xx

[nekidbob]

" That's Fine", " That's Fine ". " I, Pappy O'Daniels", Governor of the great State of Mississippi, due here by pardon The Soggy Bottom Boys. And will make them my braintrust. " Whats that mean Everrett " ? We'll kinda of be like the brains behind the throne so to speak. Oh! One of the funniest lines in the movie.

[redfishradical]

Great version. Their's is my fave-especially one I saw them do on Austin City Limits. But let's give Allison some props for some great bluesy fiddling with some great little fills & dead-PERFECT accents!

Fantastic stuff, thanks for sharing Brother...Peace!

[buckyrush1231]

He's Alisons' brother.....  huge musical family

[friddler1]

I love Dan Tyminksi's voice and Alison Krauss's smooth fiddle playing!

[metalabsynth]

@friddler1 this particular versions fiddle solo always gives me goosebumps no matter how many times i watch great performance all around as well

[srvinfinity]

Absolutely the best! Jerry Douglas does the meanest solo on that dobro I have ever heard. This is the REAL "Soggy Bottom Boys". Dan sings it right.

[MsEdd1e]

look at her go.

[OGKush2010]

2 people thought george clooney really sang this.

[UPALLNITE4U]

It don't get much better than this, boys. ♫ ♥ ♪ ♥ ♫ ♥ ♪

[crob647gtx]

She really works with that fiddle. Amazing!!!

[GriftingGriff]

I'd like to beat the shit out of whoever disliked this

[XGCScrappy]

@GriftingGriff You keep that positive, joyful attitude. You'll get em.

[alagogo]

@GriftingGriff find'em and i'll help ya !

[OGKush2010]

Can anyone tell me who is responsible for the original version of this composition? thanks in advance.

[omar44269]

Great performance. Who is the dobro-guitarist? Too strong!!

[stillwater215]

@omar44269 Jerry Douglas. He's widley regarded as one of the best dobroists in the world

[omar44269]

@stillwater215 Thanks a lot.

[jhofmann33]

Yes! Oh Yes!

[manicmechanic21]

This is a good recording. Great song.

[kerriober]

I think Allison doesn't get the credit due to her as a fiddler, as she's such a fantastic singer. But, she's a phenomenal fiddler, to boot.

[mattrockstonic]

Give ya 10 Dollr a piece,,,Well Aliwishush cant sing his name!

[TheOlderangel]

awesome tunes---an old friend bought one of allisons houses in franklin tn-----she had def leppard posters above her bed--she rocks too

[ScourgeofInfidels]

Gotta love this inbred hillbillies.

[cuneeda1950]

These folks are so tight it's incredible.............masterp­iece!

[Scanjoon]

2 dislikes? Some people have tin ears or simply cruise the vids just to express their hatred of life and themselves.

[mjmsongs]

If this doesn't make you smile, and feel GOOD, there's probably no hope for ya, and it would suck to be you!

[DavelovesRealMusic]

Stupid movie...Amazing soundtrack....wonder if they knew the script was that bad and the music that GOOD ...

[NonStopRocker]

No wonder you didnt like the movie it was meant for intellectuals..!!....Youd probably like kiss meets the phantom a little more to your speed..!

[DavelovesRealMusic]

@NonStopRocker No Timmy..I like real movies that have deep meaning..not light fluff where they turn you into a toad....real movies...Scorcese, Kubrick, Coppolla. This was a script we didnt NEED. The soundtrack is a different story.

[NonStopRocker]

Aw Davey..Are we cross?..well you go and enjoy your deep movies and dont get your panties so bunched up..!!

[jeropage95]

@DavelovesRealMusic dude this is not light stuff.. it is a satyre on the Oddysey, ambiented in the 30s

[Edthebanjo]

@DavelovesRealMusic I don't know... I wouldn't reeeaaally say it was "light fluff seeing" as it was based on Homer's Odyssey; a piece of literary genius which has stood the test of thousands of years, from way before the concept of electricity was even so much as on the door step, let alone film.

[DavelovesRealMusic]

@Edthebanjo Point taken. It's just the soundtrack is infinitely better than the film.

[jhofmann33]

@DavelovesRealMusic Have you read Homer's Odyssey? It is literary masterpiece. The Coen Brother's, basing a movie on Homer's Odyessy, prove the test of Classic. A Classic written in the 8th century proves the test of time and literary genius of Homer and of the Coen Brothers. If you went to a government high school ..... never mind.

[DavelovesRealMusic]

@jhofmann33 I DID go to a free government High school..and Homer's Odyssey was required reading..but back whe nI was about 7...mky memories of age 7...are blurry. I am not disputing the great writing of Homer. I only point out the soundtrack is far superior to the film, in my opinion. I found it too flip, too absurd. Clooney and goodman are great actors...stil lthought script was too whimsical. Different strokes...

[jhofmann33]

@DavelovesRealMusic There is no free government high school. Ask your parents. The Coen Bros are dry humor. An age and experience acquired taste. Yes, the soundtrack is great, and so is the movie's plot.

[jhofmann33]

@DavelovesRealMusic Your profile does not state your age. My guess is your are younger than age 25 and have no experience to base you statements upon. Live, love, learn, laugh .... then comment.

[zandermagic]

@DavelovesRealMusic Funny when people think that movies that don't appeal to them should not have been made. Talk about narrow minded. "This was a script we didnt NEED" Who is "we?"

[TheBgbrush]

is you is or is you aint my constituency?

[BluegrassGal101]

a song about constant sorrow?- well, sure, i can relate. but funny how it makes me smile!

[jacko59200]

[dermallover]

This is an awesome song!

[rubies011]

stuff hip-hip. house, acid, techo-pop, speed metal etc etc.... this stuff makes you dance in your bones!
