  • Love Calexico with Iron & Wine.

  • this is the most amazing song i have heard in the world.! :]

  • Beautiful version of this song. Personally i prefer this one to the "opera" version. @incontexttv Any ideas what the piece of music between 0:01 and 0:25 is? Thats also really good!

  • omg... i really love this song

  • argg i love it : just so... beautiful

  • this is everything modern music lacks

  • LOvely

  • Pure class... and the trumpet solo at the end of the song is a masterpiece...

  • I prefer this version to the album version by far. Saw him play it at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival in 2008 and could hardly contain my tears.

  • these men are incredibly great. i love this version of the song

  • when your want from the day makes you to curse in your sleep at night....i wonder which one of them wrote that...

  • i love this song.

    it's haunting...

  • This makes me realize as time moves on i'm the only one that can make something of myself

    and for me to pass off a chance to better myself would be to throw my life in the gutter and i'm not willing to do that....not again

  • Is there more Iron & Wine/Calexico from this session? I'd LOVE to see it.

  • this is my fave version of the song. it's slower, sadder and more emotional.

  • pedal steel guitar

  • What's the instrument at 1:37 please .. ??

  • Putain merde cette music sa fait plus dun an que je la cherche !!!

    coup dfoudre, les instru, la voi de se mec ...

    magnifique !!!

  • this is magic........... thx guys

  • Music heard so deeply

    That it is not heard at all,

    But you are the music

    While the music lasts. (T. S. Eliot)

    that's what comes to my mind while it forgets to think ...

  • this song...it seems to be mkin me wanna change my life for the better....its makin me abit sad about bad desisions or people iv let go

  • Absolutely stunning. Great video.

    I may be missing the point somewhat by asking this, but any ideas what the music right at the beginning is?

  • @frog606 Can someone answer this question about the intro music to this clip? Sounds like it could be just as amazing as this song

  • here i am for my monthly viewing. still incredible.

  • here i am for my daily viewing. this song never gets old. beautiful.

  • think ive watched this every month for the last year or so too..

  • Wicked video! Great song! A++

  • all amazing musical talents individually but even better together! and they're even amazing live. great great stuff.

  • ah! this is so awesome.

    calexico AND iron and wine. its like amazing x 89248723489729847234 to the billionth power. (and more..)

  • amazing...

  • god, i just cant stop listening to this song.

    iron and wine is just amazing and when i saw calexico in this

    i thought "wow it doesnt get any better than this"

    and i was right :)

  • How does one man live with so much passion? I am overwhelmed every time I hear his voice and in this case two voices. Hi, my name is Tanya and I am addicted to Sam Beam :D

  • *sigh of relief*.... There goes all that stress...Floating away with each note.

  • At times when I think the world has gone to hell, there is no good in the world, and everything that once was cherished has been taken by vapid commercial materialism, I hear something like this, and it brings me back

  • it's music like this that makes up for what god is forsaking...

  • i had that exact thought while listening to Around the Well for the first time last week. A well needed reminder that true beauty still exists in this ugly world.

  • I absolutely love it when the trumpet comes in at the end. This song builds, and is CONSTRUCTED, which is such a rarity these days. In fact, both Iron & Wine's and Calexico's songs build to a wonderful apex, which is, of course, why they are gorgeous and timeless, in my opinion. Absolute beauty.

  • This music just holds up, so much depth. From the lyrics to the amazing harmonies.

  • Fantastic!!!

  • no need to mention that calexico and sam beam are awesome, but i really like the camera movement in this video... it makes the whole experience even more special. would love to hear the other recorded songs!

  • really glad I found this. Best thing I have heard in a long time.

  • How come I rarely if ever hear either of these artists on the radio but I can hear britney spears 24/7? What has happened to the music industry?

  • it has gone to hell.

  • you're better off turning off the radio ;d

  • I agree. :-)

  • That is the value of radio. That is music for different people. You are looking in the wrong place if you are looking there.  This stuff is out there and can be found. Best wishes to you and everyone here, this music is for people like us.

  • Damn right, most people just don't understand, maybe it's better that way

  • @willsing4shelter Ugg I hear ya, it's sickning, it's what's happened to the world, lost it's soul somehow, we need to all try to re-connect or we are surely doomed.

  • @willsing4shelter The industry is turned upside down. The big record labels are dead or dying and because of that they can't keep music like this from being made. It is there for the finding and we have found this. Beautiful.

  • I wish these guys would record more music together.

  • epic

  • It's like being wrapped in a warm blanket

  • does anyone have the chords for this song

  • i wish i could get the audio off this! i love this version!!!

    if anybody has it, please please please contact me.

    sam is amazingg.

  • What is the name of the string instrument used in the background of the majority of sam beam's songs? The one that is shown being plucked and controlled by a metal (what looks like) ball

  • pedal steel guitar

  • it's a prairy thing

  • aint it lovely?

  • It's a Steal Pedal Guitar. It's "controlled" by a metal slide. Pretty sweet instrument.

  • Amazing.. Is there anywhere I can buy or download this version in mp3 or wmv?

  • sam beam and joey burns.thanks for sharing that rare moment...Fanastic!

  • Oh Yeah dude this version is much better!...A lot more chill!

  • phenomenal. simply.

  • sam beam is a genius. he doesn't have a song that isn't mind blowing on some level. hypnotizing is a great word to describe his music.

  • Wow...................This is music I like.

    It sounds much better than the studio version.

    When Iron and Wine with Calexico come to Holland =

  • Ah Man!! I need more of this! When are you going to post the rest? Is there anything else?

  • There are 4 more songs we shot. All sitting there waiting to be edited together. It drives me crazy too, but there just hasn't been any time to get to it.

  • Awesome! Thank you. Really amazing stuff. You've done a great job.

  • @incontexttv

    Why not let someone do it for you?

  • @MGSIke The footage is owned by the Austin PBS station. If I had it in my personal possession, I would certainly love nothing more than to put it together. I'm very sorry. maybe a miracle will happen and the tapes will fall off of a truck and I'll happen to find them and post them anonymously one day. I've crewed many great shows from Depeche Mode to Willie Nelson to Bowie... and I'd say the feeling in the room while recording this was among the 3 or 4 most magical. Hair-raising wonderful.

  • @incontexttv This is an awesome recording/video of two excellent artists. But can you tell me what the piece of music is between 0:01 and 0:25? Sounds good as well! Thanks. Would also love to hear the other four songs that were recorded during this session.

  • @deejayw I'm so happy you like it. It's by myself and a friend from high school. He's playing the cello. Me on guitar. It's to a soundtrack for my indie feature called 'The Incurable.' At the moment I'm playing guitar on a project for an artist named Chrysta Bell. We're putting together a live show of her music with David Lynch. Parts of 'Incurable' music may show up in the live set. We'll see.

  • @incontexttv Please do find time to upload the rest!

  • @incontexttv must edit them together and post...too good to be sitting on a shelf :)

  • @incontexttv i'd say lets make time, i'll mow your lawn if that helps

  • Seriously, I revisit this like once a month or so and it moves me every single time.

  • I revisit it more often, and am still blown away... best performance I've seen of the song by far!

  • excellent

  • Much better than the recorded version

  • Agreed!

  • This song has gotten me though some real, real rough times... It is hypnotizing. Thank you for sharing it.

  • amo!

  • I love Iron & Wine

  • Is there anywhere, anyway to get an mp3 of this version?

    Please do not ever take this video down...

  • I'm glad you like it so much mattjay503.

    At some point soon I hope, there will be away of getting this officially thru the Austin PBS station I made it for.

    It is pretty special.

  • the "dark was the night" album has it. its not exactly the same. but its the same song hah

  • Wow...

  • this version is way better than the studio version to me. i love it.

  • This version is just as good as the other version.

    Beautiful song. Sam Beam is one of those few people that can still sound good with just him and light music in the background.

  • I'm jealous of his awesome beard. More jealous of his awesome music.

  • songs like this make me laugh at my own attempt at making music, i wonder if he knows how good he is. thanks for the vid

  • ooooh its way different from the studio version

  • mmm. yes.

  • amazing...not a whole lot of music like this today..pure genius

  • untouchable

  • absolutely lovely!

    such talented musicians, and they sound wonderful together!

  • beautifull song! each of iron and wine songs are simply beautifull and makes you dream

  • this is the kind of song that makes you close your eyes and just listen

  • Such a beautiful song.

  • beautiful song . plove dark eyes by them tooooOoo but nowhere on here. . .

  • This is very well shot. Nice.

  • Wow! Iron and Wine and Calexico are both in my top 10 of music I love. Hearing them play just makes my day! Great music!

  • When I hear a sing such as this, it makes it an easy decision to choose being blind instead of deaf, if that choice ever came up.

  • I agree totally.

  • this is one of the few fabulous songs by iron and wine with calexico... history of lovers and 16, maybe less are too good to not have on youtube.

  • Brilliant performance!

  • Brilliant performance of this song.

  • Love it!

  • Does anyone know the name of the man who sings in spanish for the studio recording of this song?

  • Salvador Duran.

  • its the lead singer from the band Calexico. i dont know why hes not in this but sounds amazing either way.

  • Aww, I miss the spanish opera part. I kept waiting for one of them to just belt it out.

    Cool trumpet, though (I always love that).
