Seth Avett sings,"Pretty Girl at the Airport"

[ArvyE]

i prefer seth's voice over scott.

[misskittykicker]

This is amazing. It is such a dreamy and tender song; and it looks as if he's cradling the guitar like a woman =)

[rebeccaweh]

Seth is fucking adorable

[TabithaRoberts2011]

@noleyfaye I say all the crackerfarm musician videos

[S0UL0NE]

Charming.

[omajan09]

I really LOVE the Crackerfarm videos! Mostly because I get so sick of trying to hear them in the live videos when the audience won't shut up. Hate it when the performers have to compete with the audience. And to noleyfaye: I agree with all my heart! Even if they just put 5 or 6 on a dvd I would be thrilled!

[kenzaloo]

1:01-1:08 KILL ME. goodness gracious this is beautiful, thank you crackerfarm.

xo

[KatieIsntFamous]

How gently he delivers this song! Love it!!!

[CAJMplay]

He looks like Daniel Day Lewis in Gangs of New York in this video

[cinderslug]

this is a great bedtime song

[andrewisboredx2]

this song is like christmas.

[S0UL0NE]

I love how fragile his voice is.

[NelsonGreen11]

@S0UL0NE I wouldn't call it fragile. He can throw out some impressive screams when he gets into it. I would call his voice soft.

[hamiltonhochs]

The best pretty girl tune .. I know, I know.

[ellenfar]

swoon, swoon....shiver....swoon, swoon....

[chadwgilchrist]

Can you tell me what chords those were?

[brodank]

@chadwgilchrist - G G G G Am7 Am7 Am7 Am7

Wish me luck I know you think I'll need it

C* G/B Am7 G/B C* C* G/B G/B

For all the hardest roads we have to walk… alone

G G G G Am7 Am7 Am7 Am7

And you don't have to tell me… that you love me

C* G/B Am7 G/B C* C* G/B G/B Am7 Am7 Am7 Am7

For all the words I've never under - stood… I know… I know

[sectionpink1]

Wow ....

[carriemurch]

*sigh*

[palmer1rl]

absolutely amazing

[SnarkAttack12]

@lucswifty Yea he seems to have some cool ones.. Looks like a Gibson ES-175

[norri1am]

this is very mccartney-beatlesesque.....

[cheriseisawesome1]

One of my favorite Avett songs. For sure. Makes me cry buckets like rain.

[janetgrace26]

I love this song!!!!! It almost always makes me cry

[jeromebakerboyz]

1 viewer is RIP

[stina20a]

I think every woman no matter her shape, size, looks, religion, ethnicity, etc wishes she could be the subject of one of their "Pretty Girl..." songs.

[HasInterwebs]

I love this. I love it. The Avett Brothers are amazing. And I have yet to hear a song of theirs that touches me as much as this one.

[andyXgarcia]

this man has more soul then anybody iv ever seen.

[21Maestro8]

this is and always has been my favorite song to sing along with, so good and so heartfelt

[tarheelmtl]

My boy used to get real silent in the car when this came on in the middle of the "mignonette" days. He had to say goodbye to the one girl he always wanted on different occasions, partly because of her schooling, and partly because he wasn't right with god and himself yet. I'm happy to say that he is on track, and she has returned...returned to him

[TheFletch827]

@tarheelmtl What a beautiful story set to a beautiful song.

[grobaty]

So good it makes me cry!

[faolangrady]

Why are their live versions so much better than their studio versions?

[buzinessmann]

@faolangrady Because these are some real musicians :)

[birdcalledhope333]

wow. that was so beautiful. i'm speechless.

[flyersfan10]

warm tones, warm tones, warm tones.

[CLEZDADDY]

Gorgeous version of this song...

[rainluv321]

i can't get enough of this... it's just so beautiful!! thank you Avett Brothers for sharing your unbelievable creativity with the world!!!!

[kyletehsex]

Is there anyway you could make a quality audio track of this song for me? It would literally save my life.

[methad123]

I love Seth's voice very much, great range, extremely delicate, and beautiful... just saying.

[allcreationgroans]

@methad123 I agree...I could listen to this all day. plus, that's a pretty interesting choice in facial hair...

[jonnyjaxn]

@crackerfarm !! dude you have to make a video of seth singing the bob marley "is this love".. geez the few seconds of it in the myrtle beach vid rocked my world

[gingervisions]

Dang, @crackerfarm, you guys really know how to make it hurt. Keep it up.

[HiImWinthrop]

rock that mustache, seth. LIKE A BOSS

[irvingjohn]

Worthy addition to the pretty girl series. Love the electric guitar he is playing. I almost wish he'd play it always.

[britishslang1]

This makes me sob...such a beautiful sad song...also, my favorite pretty girl song...I LOVE THEM!!!

[kaddy3232]

I love the clusterfuck of Christmas lights!

[folksinger91]

What kind of guitar is that?

[allcreationgroans]

@folksinger91 It looks kinda like an Ibanez...

[folksinger91]

@allcreationgroans John Hartford played a guitar that got a similar sound on his early recordings for his 'word movies', very groovy.

[allcreationgroans]

@folksinger91 After a second look, I think that's Gibson. haha, whoops. yeah, its got a very sweet, smooth quality...I guess that's why I myself have an affinity to most hollowbodies. anyhow, I had to check out John Hartford and I really have to thank you for that tip! I think I must have listened to "Prayer" 5 times...seriously, he's got soul! And, his voice his very smooth and familiar. I think I'm a fan now, so thanks :)

[folksinger91]

@allcreationgroans I'm glad you like him! He's one of my favorite folk musicians, he put such great melodies with fantastic poetry. Very few people know of him - I'm glad I recruited another fan!

[cobaltcalcium30]

seth, even with the latest do, you are so inspiring

[1mshores]

an avett song a day keeps all my blues away..

[kruton101]

Is that an electric he's playing?

[Josiahjjr]

@kruton101 yessir

[robertbingalls]

I feel like a schoolgirl every time I hear the Avetts. I hope they make music forever.

[hopulikit22]

Again....Youtube channel of the year: Crackerfarm

From your camera lens to your Jersey inked feet....you are much appreciated! Thanks again!

[MrDrumminfox]

@hopulikit22 You mine as well just thank the Avett Brothers. Crackerfarm just has a nice camera. Congrats?

[wrstllax089]

i think crackerfarm/avett videos have the best like to dislike ratio on youtube.

[mindurbuisiness]

he looks like freddie murcury with that moustache....

[Josiahjjr]

@mindurbuisiness thats what I said!!

[SublimeLBC96]

If theres anyone I've ever wanted to write a letter to, its Seth Avett and Scott Avett. Their Music saved my sanity and my life. If it wasnt for the Mourning, The Silver, The Bell, i would be a whole different person.

[Ohhhlordddd]

If anyone ever questions what is good and pure and true in this world, lead them here <3

[MrStrusz]

It looks like he's in a dorm room.

[faeriespeck]

loved the original version, and just when I thought it couldn't get better...wow...chills!

[morgancayla15]

He has the most beautiful voice ever.

[ergelayetak]

ah, so lovely. crackerfarm + avett brothers = my most favorite thing in the world. 

[noleyfaye]

you know what a great christmas present would be...a dvd of all the avett crackerfarm videos!!!

[DawnVita]

Lovely.....

[GradySpencer]

i'd poop my pants to have a guitar like that. and hat.

[abeillevert]

the simplest tune and the softest light and the most glorious moustache--indeed, crackerfarm, what a feeling.

[zimmerman1960]

What?! Tiny? I thought it was almost life size.

[chilixx]

it's perfect. completely perfect.

[mandrewn501]

Awesome. I never get sick of Crackerfarm videos!!

[sixStringstranger]

Cincinnati, Ohio Southgate House? That would be an A-Freaking-Mazing show. I had to go to Athens and Louisville last year to see you guys.(Which I don't mind) but the atmosphere at the Southgate would be spot on!

[basketcase5295]

ashamed to say i've never heard this before....wow!

[kindermama1]

freakin beautiful. thank you CF and Seth.

[whatsarasaid]

absolutely fantastic

[timeWILLtell15]

@crackerfarm hahahahhahaha

[larossa9]

mike, i love you

[markoconroy]

i feel better about airports after listening to this - nice gee-tar

[TheNamingOfThings]

I predict that I will watch this video everyday for at least a month and then quite regularly thereafter.

This is what perfection looks like. Thanks Seth and Cracker.

[TheTrapezeSwinger13]

This has been "the song" for me for the past two weeks. I've watched all the videos of it on YouTube, I learned how to play it and have been playing it every day. This makes me so happy. Thanks Seth, thanks Crackerfarm.

[ladycrazy100]

Very nice.

...but why no often Scott's performances?

[crackerfarm]

@ladycrazy100 scott is actually a tiny robot we made for shows only

[thibo182]

@crackerfarm Haha tiny, I'm sure he'll appreciate !

[chilixx]

@crackerfarm hahahaha. I especially love the "tiny" part of this reply.

[1mshores]

@crackerfarm this is ridiculously hilarious... i hope scott reads this!

[ohnothatsnotgood]

So pretty :):)

[mrh975yt]

another outstanding video...thanks @crackerfarm !!

[rapcpb]

This is my favorite of the "pretty girl" songs. And what a seriously beautiful version. Thank you so much for posting it.
