[MegaAlettS]

anthem to my life! i want this as my eulogy.

[DAVEFANFIREDANCER]

damn hes hot



[XBboyOmegaX]

One man, a guitar and his voice.

[kiannasurf08]

me and my dad were listening to this song yesterday while having a bonfire . then all of a sudden he says " mija, when im old and wrinkly and i die ....at my funeral play this song"

love you papps♥

[emilyjay14]

those 19 people who disliked .... do you know what real music is?

[TheTMP2]

I know it's only like 5 chords and one part is hard but Dave just makes it's sick and no one can ever sound like him ever it's just Dave-3

[TheJerseyj32]

Rip Eric Hayes.. 12/11/2011...

[aobpodcast]

Dave is NOT awesome I only like this song

[astralacuity]

this is good but the live version is way better

[Breazeale93]

@astralacuity I don't know if you figured this out or not, but this is pretty much as live as you can get. Therefore, how can the live version be better than the live version?

[allKILLIAN]

SEXY!!! Dave is so Sexy!

[yopatao]

I buried our family cat in the backyard today.  It's raining tonight. I couldn't help but think of this song. RIP Slinky

[DWAYNE838]

Thumbs Up If Ya Think This Should Have 5,000,000 Views. WTF

[XTWIntensity]

Dave's best song.

[3Dmultimedia1]

@XTWIntensity Ironically, it's Willie Nelson's song.

[XTWIntensity]

@3Dmultimedia1 No its not. Willie just did a cover. It's daves song. Next I supose you think Joan Jett wrote I love Rock and Roll. Or Jimi Hendrix wrote All along the Watchtower. Dave wrote it in 2002. Willie first performed it in 2007. Sorry bro/ sis.

[3Dmultimedia1]

@3Dmultimedia1 Well, call me Dr. Scholls because I stand corrected.

[eric43085]

@3Dmultimedia1 Its daves song, willie covered it

[RonchyBass]

2:18 and on is the best part, thumbs up if you agree... :)

[dblg3]

Flawless!!!

[gbeagle130]

I'm getting cremated because of this song

[trentonjoker]

when i die i want this song to be played at my funeral. oh and 18 people don't want a shallow grave to feel the rain.

[decimus81]

god this song is beautiful

[NoCeilingsGaming]

Where does he get his bud? He is so passionate I cannot get enough of him fall asleep to him every night :)

[thestephenwithaV]

even if your not a dave matthews fan (i dont know why you wouldnt be) you have to give him credit, because this is one of the most amazing songs ever written.

[MClark2014Gaming]

Beautiful

[metiron77]

one of the most beautiful songs ever written.

[salvagebar]

16 people's graves were dug much too deep.

[euanb30]

would love to see Dave Matthews doing this as a duet with tom waits on piano :)

[Vyn2007]

adorable :)

[andrewhenneman]

weak......



[allseevid]

I'm kind of a gravedigger since I buried my girlfriend in my backyard in a shallow grave so I can still fell her rotten scent from time to time.

[andrewhenneman]

@allseevid. Sounds like someone is crying out for a little attention.....waiting for some of responses like "Oh my god dude your so sick." or how about "your a sick bastard" That should get ya through the day i suppose. You are a sad sad little person.

[allseevid]

@andrewhenneman sounds like you're the one who needs to figure out what your and you're means

[77themark]

@allseevid thats not even funny

[DucatiJohnny]

@allseevid Really??? whats your address???

[kimble227]

Soulful

[kimble227]

....dmb really hits the spot when u want to really listen to a sulfur song

[Frankycool4u]

15 people are gonna be cremated

[thisisacunt]

i hate when people write out the lyrics

[MrJester1423]

Dave is the best Musician of this Generation. So much feeling in his music.

[OfficialGrizzlyDub]

15 people arent gunna have a gravedigger nor do they no what true talent is this is the most moving song many people have heard

[wbarreguy]

That was fucking awesome. Pardon my Turkish.

[JoseMR2k11]

how the fuck can 1, let alone 15 whole people dislike this song.... this the most human and real life you can get. its so...... powerful and i know anyone who hears this is not only emotionally but also spiritually moved.

[Shaggy355]

I love how it sounds so similar to the record except even more passion.

[werenick999]

this song is so good :D

[headstock48]

Little Mikey Carson.

[Redsparrowe123]

This guy's fingers go for days. What a beautiful, freaky pair of hands he has.

[TheAdvilMonkey]

I freaking love Dave, but I can't stop watching his facial expressions! They are as epic as his music!

[rodrigorenzo]

14 people will have to dig their own graves...

[Manzione31]

I dont know about you guys... but a Dave show where I'm from means nothing but good music, good brews, and even better women... I could be the only one though!

[jordanmoran007]

I like Dave with a Martin.

[MaDzidairish]

you know.....Cyrus Jones lived forever

[TheCookieMonsta117]

ring around the rosey

pocket full of posey

ashes to ashes

we all fall down

gravedigger i love that part thumbs up if u do 2

[nyxadestube]

@TheCookieMonsta117 ''thumbs up' bla bla bla, Im cool my comments is there --''

[screaminghatter]

@TheCookieMonsta117 That stanza is about the Black Plague. Key phrase here being ashes to ashes.

[TheCookieMonsta117]

screw the 14 ppl who dont like this song u guys suck that means u hate dave matthews

[djukah]

The ordeals of Muriel Stonewall and Little Mikey Carson ... Sad.

[tubapoon09]

How awesome is the face that he makes at 3:36?

[peteboucher7]

@tubapoon09 he had an ichy forehead, lol I think thats all it is

[headstock48]

This guy's music makes me want to celebrate and put a bullet in my head, all at the same time. Geez.

[fluffikens]

Gravedigger,

when you dig my grave,

make it shallow,

so i can still hear Dave...

[headstock48]

@fluffikens That's what I'm sayin'.

[sqbjvd5]

@fluffikens

Fucking awesome dude!!!

[canigetahit]

I feel bad for the North Mississippi All-Stars having to follow this.

[CaponeFavilla1]

i think he means, he loves life, one of the meanings, and even after death, he wants to feel the rain.

also, rain may mean salvation. but when we think he might be sittin' around somewhere, with the band, like perfectly normal people, It feels bad havin' to try and understand every single thing inside a song, i mean, it truly makes the world look small. the whole world seems pretty small sometimes.

[jgr8781]

this song gives me goosebumps evertime!

[ThorThunderGod14]

A really great song, love this performance! But I could imagine Dave approaching the grave digger during his lunch break and playing this song at him, as the grave digger just gets really freaked out :P

[headstock48]

Nice pickin' there.

[luv2cheer2405]

This song gives me the chills and its really creepy but I still loooove the song!!

[mrsdenton100]

Chills...

[neoman96]

I love this song, i played a cover and would like some feedback thanks:)

/watch?v=8M0vea37L8Q

[roflzkeifer]

@neoman96

Not bad man, I enjoyed it. Vocals seemed a little rushed. But good job man, I liked it.

[jpstirling]

feckin awesome- this song is in my set as from next saturday> but in Bm flat as my balls are set a little higher than daves- checkout my songs at jpstirling on youtube!

[poesiepiratmichl]

[nmoney53]

[nmoney53]

[DamaKameliowa5]

[dennyvibes]

This is such a brilliant song.

[mskathleenmccoy]

Beautiful poetry in motion....

[CassimaPwnsWoW]

I demand a "Love" button!

[ryne1991]

love the head scratch at 3:35 :D

[NYKushDoctor]

Cyrus Jones 1810 to 1913 made his great grandchildren believe you cold live to 103.

103 is forever when your just a little kid

So. Cyrus Jones Lived Forever

Grave Digger - when you dig my grave

could you make it shallow, so that I could feel the Rain - GraveDigger

Muerial Stonewall 1903 to 1954. Lost both of her babies in the second great war.

Now you should never have to watch as your only children lowered in the ground

I mean - Never Have to Bury your own Babies.

DMB Forever

[NHTOATLANTA]

I bet Dave could sing Mary had a little lamb and make it good LOL

[DWAYNE838]

MAN IS THAT BAD ASS! HOLY SHIT...

[11181001]

Nice video,keep it up. Watch for BRANDON JAROD new music, OCT. release. Awesome!

[moonrunner117]

You can just fell it .

[Wsrslamdunker]

14 people must be deaf and thought this was a monster truck rally

[deefromott]

wicked sound

[rickerman22]

One of the best PERIOD

[bluezebra5]

the best ever?

[kipster808]

14 people need to see dave live and be surrounded with awsomeness

[tycoles]

Damn. This song makes me want to cry. One of the very few songs that gives me that reaction

[NYKushDoctor]

Great Artist. Great Live Performance.

[bojangles322]

dam what a beast

[effects69]

I've just fallen in love with this song. Amazing!

[dingaia]

What's mostly important about Dave matthews and how he sings, not about how well he can pitch his voice, because go back and listen to when he first started, he was a marvel of a voice never heard singing like that before incredible, but i feel his voice in my it moves and lives through me like a melancholy yet inspirational incredible overwhelming satisfying instrument that plays the strings of my soul and carries me away to some place i've never been before.

[chinoisetube]

Realy amazing...

Absolutamente fantastico...

[prorobo]

This guy is wicked. The 13 morons who disliked this vid however should be lynched.

[daftpunkenstein]

no matter how good he sings, he sings very ugly.

[claykallias]

you're an idiot

[solskjaerutd]

Whoever dislikes this song ears must be painted on!!

Awsome in the highest degree......this is why we listen to music, so we can find inspirational songs with soul, passion and sentiment. Dave Matthews rarley lets u down in that department!

[rockerfaerie]

I love how his soul comes out of his mouth.

[dmblova3321]

Dave is the man!!! Raw talent.. Amazing:)

[rememberrevolution]

Although i hate his voice, i love his singgin in this song ;)

[BERNZIE41]

mmm

[Crazykye321]

This is really a great song, and its easy to play too!

[chjustin69]

Amazing!!!!!!

[4c1dh34d]

yeah, and he was born in south africa!!!

[Noir1311]

Love the lyrics, love the song... 

[KYCJKY]

F N A

BADASS

[biggreenex]

gave me goosebumps!!!!

[pheromonedust]

LOVE LOVE LOVE

[arnoldpalmer6]

when he played this last year at Blossom in Cleveland I was on the lawn and it was actually raining: so awesome.

[nostalgiamelancolia]

This guy is really gifted in music.

[maztropuppetz]

@nostalgiamelancolia or you could say he's a gift to music...go DAVE!!!!...

[dmitryWeirdo]

I've watched this video hundreds of times already. Love it. Soulful signing and wonderful song with great lyrics!

[heldagsskolen]

He's so fucking talented!!! He's my favorite artist, and the songs he have made, i always try to play on guitar... But he is so much fucking better!!!

[wwefan45611]

this true talent

[SuperTambourineMan]

I totally agree. He is gifted. Understated but head-grabbing.

[BinocularWorld]

Fucking incredible.

[revoloser65]

great song!

[lasneh]

amazing

[Khamillion0]

Check new tracks "Legendary Killer" and "Drag Me to HELL"

[TommyRocker919]

great song, his is the best version... he sure does have a goofy voice tho...

[laxrox1294]

@TommyRocker919 its that great mix of accents he has.... south african, new yorker, london, and then that good old virginia one...all mixed together its good

[HellMustFearMe777]

That's what I love about playing guitar.. Everybody can more or less learn how to play guitar with soul and feeling.. But it's impossible to "learn" to sing with soul like Dave!

[jamesmcmlxii]

to the one I love thanks, I love it

[martgonzo]

1:50 LMFAO

[thsafterlyfe]

@martgonzo he's an extremely animated person lol.

[woodMASTER2011]

[ThePelkinator]

@woodMASTER2011 idc hes good fagget

[woodMASTER2011]

@ThePelkinator i wasnt saying anything bad about him! calm down man.

[fongifrogs]

[JCragan]

[Welljusthi]

[CruzeHH]

saw dmb in hamburg/germany.. what a great band!! perfect song!!

[amazinglystrange19]

amazing song!

[KingCobraOutlaw]

sad but true cause the gravedigger will visit us all sooner or later

[answerIXx]

Gravedigger, when you dig my grave could you make it shallow ? So that I can feel the rain.

[peacecaretrust]

perfect *_*

[illduce333]

This is actually one of the worse performances I have seen from Dave and it is still great. Some of the notes are flat and he sounds like he is forcing them out too much. Maybe he just got too messed up before the concert, I don't know.

[sevenender]

Could you make it shallow..So that I can feel the rain

[SwayzeExpressTrain]

Very blunt yet so deep. Only Dave could pull this off.

[Gespenst007]

Dave Matthews.. .the way he sings, its just, so beautiful, so moving :' )

[esdenaze]

Gravedigger

When you dig my grave

Could you make it shallow

So that I can feel the rain

Wow so black, so deep and beautiful

[jerrytatum]

[Karkar82]

@jerrytatum you

[PuttyNathan]

2:54 lots of spit.

Great performance though.

[AhYaOk]

he is possessed by something

[vassilysk]

wonderfull song

[HalfBillion]

i honestly think some devil is my favorite album from dave

[greysinner]

No flashy dress. No pyrotechnics. Just pure, raw talent. We need alot more of this today.

[thesteve120]

id offer my myspace band page link at this point but it would sound like self promotion

[MrUSGERMAN]

TOTALLY agree.

[laudypapa1]

yes we do. we need a LOT indeed

[thsafterlyfe]

@greysinner hell yeah we do, im sick of all the computer generated bull shit. harldy any TRUE talent left.. wish dave would keep on playing forever.

_-GraveFiller-_

[MrLaggman]

@greysinner AMEN TO THAT !!!!!!

[AvoidMyself1]

@greysinner im depressed , that music like this is dissapearing...

[vietsage]

@greysinner NO WE NEED MORE GIRLS PRANCING AROUND WITH NO PANTS ON

[Infloential1]

[Meseamer]

this is real talent

[Badger2510]

i love 2:20 to the end is the part i love he gets more intense

[MrJordanSage]

Exceptional.

[darkblood2212]

amazing song

[chicagochris1988]

NVm he is playing a martin D28 in the video.

[MrUSGERMAN]

Hey, Chicagochris, who gives a shit what guitar he plays? it sounds wonderful, and thats all that matters. its not as if your trying to re-make the song, as far as i can tell. why do you have to argue about stupid things like that? it doesnt matter.

[chicagochris1988]

Your just like everyone else on the internet. Your rude to people. get a life dude. I didnt come to argue.

[9611CALL]

haha i laughed at "its not as if your trying to re-make the song" its so true

[onthebrink11]

god his voiceeeee. so freaking great

[paparoni100]

i dont know what to say but its very beutiful

[spiritofdirlewanger]

[XCM666]

spiritofdirlewanger offensichtlich hast du weder Ahnung vom Musik noch vom Leben also sei doch einfach ruhig anstatt hier die Kommentare vollzuspammen

Great Vid^^

Hey dave. I want your perfect martin so bad. Throw it through the monitor for me :))
