Avett Brothers - "I and Love and You" SXSW '09

[BetweenLoveandLike]

I was at this show and this song just....goosebumps all over. Thank you so much for capturing this....

[johnny991965]

Class like this is so rare. A rose among the thorns.....brilliant and timeless.

[lysemondor]

saw them at the house of blues in Boston last month, they were truly amazing live, the best energy I've seen in a long time, was catching, wish them all the success they deserve, and for all people to get hip to the music!

[llf009]

Very beautiful...I love this song.

[mase4t4]

beautiful song, beautiful

[CairnsMC3]

Enough with the slow songs, Avetts ... let's hear you rock again!

[trago]

I disagree. They nail the slow songs. There are plenty of other bands doing the rocking.

[CairnsMC3]

They nail the rocking songs too. I'd say their forte is a song that encompasses both - oscillates well between the hard and soft, the fast and slow. Most of their slow songs that stay slow the entire song, tend to bore me. But from what little I've heard, there is some faster stuff on the CD - they haven't gone completely soft in their old age .. ha!

[zerogravity724]

dude, a true avett bros fan likes both sides. The new album is just as good as the old ones in my opinion.

[bradreed]

agreed

[campostke215]

great video quality love this song

[scottay69]

yep, these guys are good, on business i happened to catch them in Cleveland in 2007, packed house, they rocked the house

[Jacobisgrowing]

i was standing right in front of him. it was beautiful.

[Jeeptruck86]

Load the car and write the note Grab your bag & grab your coat Tell the ones that need to know We are headed north 1 foot in & 1 foot back But it don't pay to live like that So I cut the ties & I jumped the tracks For never to return Aww Brooklyn, Brooklyn take me in Are you aware the shape I'm in? My hands they shake, my head it spins Aww Brooklyn, Brooklyn take me in When at first I learned to speak I used all my words to fight With him & her and you and me

[Jeeptruck86]

Aww It's just a waste of time Yeah it's just a waste of time The woman she's got eyes that shine like a pair of stolen polished dimes she asked to dance, I said it's fine I'll see you in the morning time. Aww Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in Are you aware the shape I'm in? My hands they shake my head it spins Aww Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in 3 words that became hard to say I and Love and You What you were then I am today Look at the things I do. Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in.

[Aholz09]

I'm afraid this new album is going to make them famous

[shabadu500]

hahahaha me too!

[texabamabrackish]

It'll be okay. They're like Hank 3. It won't change them. Or go to their head. Let them get famous. We've had them to ourselves for years.

[hamiltonhochs]

theyre studio sound may be tweeked a bit, but they're live shows are always MONEY ! . Maybe my all time favorite band....Seriously !!!

[werty3535]

I know what you mean... As much as you wish them success it's nice to know them at this level

[justingarman]

Yea but if anyone deserves it they do.. I dont want to see a day the avett brothers are on MTV

[ec59783]

Hear, hear, its selfish of us as fans to say that, but MTV doesn't deserve this kind of originality. I first started listing to these guys after they took Greenville NC by storm; my brother went to school at ECU and got a chance to see one of there early live gigs and passed their music on to me.

[LanyBunny90]

nope..just vh1 lol

[TheCoreyhlltt]

@justingarman yeah too bad, but one year later this comment is SO WRONG!!!

[justingarman]

@TheCoreyhlltt Huh? theyve had success and are doing great. And I dont watch MTV but from what I know they are NOT on MTV. Which is good? I dont understand what your trying to say? Ive thought this band was great for a LOOONG time and still do. So im not following what your saying. Sorry.

[echo013]

when I heard this song in new york last week it gave me chills. When they said "Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in", the crowd went nuts!

[knucklexxxcrusher]
