Try not to smile. Just try.

[qtip4ever]

@danthomas240

His energy is pretty infectious, he? I love to watch him perform, because he clearly loves doing it.

[shanebyrne1992]

goosebumps there around 1:35 or so.

[buddhaforkath]

My name is Kathleen and I freaking LOVE this song.

I might have even cried a little bit the first time I heard it.

[ianthecool]

its weird watching porn with this song in the background....just sayin

[cubbies4e]

I don't think there's EVER been a sweeter song about doing it. 

[tiedupandtwisted]

i'm inlove w/ a girl named kathleen, intelligent and pretty, she has a boyfriend though ...sucks

[ErikaWoo]

I lovvvve this song, this version gives me goosebumps! Beautiful <3

[XtinaOGW93]

[bokahya219]

[katndon]

[kittensamurai]

He isn't Irish... he's from Idaho. I'm proud to say he's from my hometown!

[significantjoe]

[TitaniumWheels]

[KathleenP1124]

I love this version better than any other version.

[13katikins]

I am called Kathleen :D:D have all his CD's . I love Josh ritter :D :D X

[barbylios]

Can anyone translate the lyrics for this song into Spanish for me?

[katndon]

This Kathleen Loves Ya!!

[Scudsy101]

I don't care what anyone else says...this man IS Dylan's sucessor.His lyrics are simply brilliant..."All the other girls are stars,you are the Nothern Lights"

WOW!

Very poetic...he is a genius and the best songwriter of the 21 Century.

His accent is great,it has a strange hint of Irish in it...

[boylee91]

...about the night that i.... that part is great :) anyone else going to see josh in central park next month? :D

[ydfau61]

When he gets to the part where he says "ONLY BOTH OF US KNOW!" at the end, that is sheer magic. Ive listened to this song a million times but that part still makes me smile. Josh is amazing.

[FXMAN66]

Nobody loves and appreciates his audiences like this guy. Great live show.

[afthefragile]

He's playing here again next month in the same venue and i'm going! :D

[sween221]

gahd dam what a unreal song

[RustedWeaponry37]

I don't know if anyone else has noticed this yet.. but look at his guitar through the song. They keep switching back in forth between at least 2 different performances. Not saying that that's necessarity bad. It just seems like someone missed that when editing maybe.

[wasteofspace04]

Nah, they probably did it intentionally to get the best looking performance.

[kaatje2111]

Discovered him by coïncidence (ok, I'm one of the billion Kathleens). But what a performer!

[iwasoncebefore]

Dublin is his adopted home! It's where he is most popular, and where he made his name. If it wasn't for the loyal Dublin fans he'd not have been able to dedicate himself full-time to the Music. Thus, Dublin is his home!

[hollisterrgirly]

he is AMAZING. =]

[mjlski06]

i was thinking the same thing but i went to that venue in dublin once... that is definitely dublin

[mmusins2]

Just saw him last night and he closed with this!!! One of the greatest musical moments of my life :)

[CRAZYBABY1987654]

lol I'm Kathleen too!! Nice to know I'm not the only one out there. I have never met another Kathleen before! Any kat's here from Canada?

[barbylios]

where can i get this dvd from?

[Satyridae]

Aww, I love how he lets the audience sing that verse... x3

[gingereades]

This is a great live version of my favorite song of Ritter's. Looking forward to seeing Josh play in Nashville!! (USA) I bet that show was a blast when this video was made.

-Ginger Killian Eades (USA via Irish descent)

[ThisIsWar257]

[Kat6295]

Haha, I'm Kathleen. My evil friend sent me this to annoy me. =P I'm the best Kathleen. So there.

[mrfacques]

what do you mean your evil friend?!!! you should feel lucky to share your name with such a great song!

[KraziibutKewl40]

thts cool mi names kathleen to so guess wat we both rule lol!!!

[terrencegabriel]

Just absolutely FAR OUT.

[kmz126]

lol im kathleen

[kathleenrob]

He is from Idaho, USA. He might be of Irish desent, as am I, hence my name Kathleen, but I am from USA too.

[unicuber]

Not only is he from Idaho, he's from the same city in Idaho I'm from (Moscow)...I see him around town here sometimes, when he's not on tour.

I don't believe he's Irish actually, he's just more popular in Ireland because the Irish apparently have great taste in music (:

[RFPCS]

yeah! we do.lol

[nsowle93]

Dude, I'm from Moscow too :D

I've met him a couple times, same with Cataldo (Eric Anderson)

Go Moscow!

Go Josh Ritter!

[unicuber]

Nice, I've never actually met him unfortunately...I have met Eric Anderson, he's really great too.

[nsowle93]

Yeah, I'm on Eric Anderson's myspace haha. I did a photo shoot with him and my best friend and my little brother waaayyy back in the day. We were like 11 haha.

[MichaelFrances]

who is Eric Anderson and is he comparable to Josh? I'm slowly beginning to think of Ritter as thee most genuine contender to the 'new Dylan mantle', eclipsing Springsteen perhaps and definitely the likes of R.Adams and co for sheer vividness in his imagery and genious in his lyrics

[xxpiepiepiexx]

lol unicuber, with our taste of music it seems to be mixed. Sometimes they create / are the only ones to notice great types of music, such as this. at other times, i wonder how "all these other irish people like this crap..." but thats rare :P

[Mick342]

@unicuber that we do ^^

[jessicaburlile]

@unicuber Yeah, Josh is really popular in Ireland because one of his first major breaks was opening for The Frames, an awesome Irish band led by Glen Hansard, who discovered Josh at an open mic during one of The Frames' tours on the East Coast (US). Pretty awesome how these things work out...

[XoKatapultoX]

I'm so happy that there's a song with my name in it. I'm not suprised he's Irish as Kathleen's an Irish name - but I'm Aussie. Oh well.

[dotsie7320]

Josh is so full of energy and great to watch live. Saw him last night at World Cafe. Vibrant performance!

[dawgterfeelgood]

Great song. I especially like the bright green rotating bud in the background.

[phillycop5th]

awesome!
