Iron and Wine-Upward Over The Mountain

[Finduskkk]

Wonderful video. It makes me remember when I went fishing like that man. It makes me really happy, untought, peaceful.

Bye ftom Italy.

[nahhandams]

good work. beautiful imagery. 

[rustyroser]

Ya know, I find it ironic, the summer of '07 was the best summer of my life as well... I love this song, this band, and this video. I've watched it a million times.

[Tivnan8]

I first thought to myself, why would I ever want to watch another family have fun to this song? And honestly I got addicted to this video and the happiness of it. I spent forever trying to find it again. I just found it months later. Great video. <3

[ATTICUSFINCH51]

Beautiful shorthair. I've got a couple myself.

[imlegend93]

awesome song !

[spacehippo]

neat video amazing song, thanks fella

[Killinemdead1]

i used to drink till i was numb and cut myself listening to this song. those days are long but this song has a grip on my soul

[motifontheback]

@Killinemdead1 i'm glad you've moved passed it. no one deserves to have that type of pain inflicted on them, even if they themselves are doing the inflicting. i'm glad :]

[ruralhymns]

Cute dog!!! =3

[aakaylaa]

n ow im all excited for summer haha

[gaisafl]

great video :)

[trave2go]

This looks like a perfect summer in Michigan...am I correct?

[xTheBadfishxx]

i like that guy who was in his fishing trousers and his fly fishing pole. he is a good man

[musicfan088]

Just a KICKA** track!!!!!!!!!!!

It is really good. Iron & Wine they have lots of talent.

[TripperTrail]

This video always makes me smile. I love the song too. After I heard it a couple of times, I went and downloaded it from iTunes.

[balimoon06]

Nice! Thanks for sharing.

Enjoy life, more good times are coming!

[GinniatheZinnia]

what is it with summer of '07? It was pretty monumental.

[MrFabs92]

great video. what album is that?

[cudi1is3god]

seriously thank you for sharing this :)

[kaktusfeige3]

where did you film that? wonderful video :)

[skilar5]

man, perfect really aches, eh?

[kkuper1]

holland pier and awesome music represent, that wasn't the Pine river was it?

[nicbangalore]

i keep coming back to this video

[CaitlinLuhbeeese]

4:02 CUTEST SMILE EVER :)

[CinderSmoke]

I prefer understanding it as 'may the son rise, bring hope', although it's not meant that way.

[MsNaturewoman]

Saw him and his crew in radio city yesterday...very, authentic, simple, beautiful lyrics, and just delicious performance!! loved it!!

[RavissantJules]

The part about his mother crying at the sight of the dog trying to wash the blood and flees off her new born pups (unsuccessfully) was just heartbreaking. Like she sees herself in the mother dog....not to mention that the pups were living in the pantry...can't be much food....

[Toxityrue]

You really made something beautiful and touching when you put this video together. It looks like an amazing summer :)

[jlucas83]

Wow, can't tell you how much I relate to this video! I love it... love the family, the fishing, the dogs, and the music! Nice to know there are other families out there just like mine. :)

[MrwhiteSC2]

All the words in the world can't describe this music :x

[rchlwstn]

Thank you for this. I cried for ten minutes just thinking about my childhood up north with my family. Michigan is truly one of the most beautiful places on earth. You've captured everything wonderful about my life and my home.

[peachtable966]

Anyone else notice a similarity between iron & wine's music with that of freelance whales? I love both, and i'm pretty sure sam came first. But FW are really good too :-)

[wavesareenergy]

OMG they have a german shorthaired pointer dog. My dog that just passed away was also of that breed. I miss her...

[spazcabrera]

This video you put together I've watched countless times.It reminds me of everything I want to see and go to with my family before my teenage years are over.After I watched this I looked up the places you tagged and put that as a place I need to go.Thanks

[treehousetoker]

i left home before i was mature enough to appreciate all those good things about family life. this video is a really nice reminder to me of how much love comes with a family. great job brother

[VictorialInman]

I'm really diggin' 'Grandpa' at 1:18 :) Haha

I miss those days. Fishing. Vacations. Family. Love.

You don't come around that a lot these days.

Thumbs up!

[LockeH27]

Great song......great video. Looks like it could have been Western MT or even upstate NY.

[runnerman007]

nice vid/ music...as i was watching it, i realized that this had to be in Michigan...best place to live

[AquaGotHax]

this is so great dude! beautiful music and video!

[Fimbutyr]

what a wonderful video...and what a wonderful song

[castirontoaster]

im not one for this, but this is a fantastic video.

[thriftscout]

HOLLAND MICHIGAN!

Totes magotes awesome.

I've spent so much time at that park.

[iIRaazrIi]

Who ever that fisherman is, he has the best fishing outfit I have ever seen! Awesome song to some great footage.

[acintya7585]

19 people who watched this video had ADHD

[vonironbutterfly]

HOME SWEET HOME........,3

[vonironbutterfly]

Beauty FULL!

[tilthoughtisblind]

I've watched this video countless times. It always puts a soothing end to a bad day. I smile by the end of it and am ready for tomorrow. Thank you so much for making it.

[jackalope616]

i think you captured the true spirit of america right here. All these scenes remind me of things in my life. Fly fishing, dogs, streams untouched by industrialization, family, carrides. This song is sentimental, but this video is art. you really should consider studying film. i'm a video artist, and i really admire this. This is the best fan video on youtube. And i really hope you make others. Thank you. like really, thank you.

[truleerotten]

Thanks for this.

[shureshot24]

appropriate video i suppose very good. My favorite f'ing iron and wine song ever i listen to it like everyday. It makes the sideways video like 10000000 times better just because of that. jk

[alifewithoutsolace]

glad to be alive

[alifewithoutsolace]

that rusty violin <3

[alifewithoutsolace]

aah that scratchy instrument.

[34celticpride]

its always so sad when summer vacation is over not the fact that its over,but that fact that when you look back and think of all the cool stuff you did all summer long

[sctubman]

Great song... this video has some great moments, the sunset shots are beautiful and I love when you're walking out on the pier and turn the camera on the (boy?)friend who smiles. For me, the fact that it's all in home-video style adds to it for me.

[FenderMadison]

Wow. Good work! I'm going on your next summer vacation with you! :)

[swickster153]

more like iron and WIN

[lorylove300]

You are a source of inspiration! your video is great and the song fits perfectly! well done! xxx

[oasisxo]

This made me so happy that I've been crying for 20 minutes.

Thank you.

[Vonnie20]

Beautiful video. So well done. I adore this song. Why is everything I&W does so absolutely soul stirring? <3

[mougabo]

dude! this video is great!

[DoctorSess]

ive seen this amazing video a long time ago and im glad i found it again. i cant explain why this song is so powerful but i think everyone here already knows...i dunno i feel like i just shed my skin.

[campbub]

GOTTA LOVE THE MITTEN STATE......GO BLUE., OH YA IRON AND WINE

[Rake2204]

@tobaccorogue I can't comment for all of the video, but I know the beach with the red lighthouse (Big Red) is in Holland, MI.

[startsailor]

what a great song....last verses with the dogs pups in the pantry always makes me bawl. so did this video. in a nice disgusting fuzzy way. <3

[ressejoberts]

oh my word i've been on that dock! is that in st. joseph's? or somewhere near there?

[beardood]

Is it strange that I feel extreme nostalgia while watching somebody else's memories?

Heart-achingly beautiful.

[OliviaaJayy]

LOVE when you zoomed in on the dog's tail wagging.

I smiled and was like awe when it got to that part! (:

[101simplicity]

without a doubt, you have inadvertently made one of the best music videos on youtube. thumbs up to YOU, and thank you.

[SuperFisch2010]

Love Your video!

[brinnah9]

this makes me so freakin happy but jealous at the same time. thts like my dream house and location and just everything. ughhhh:) thank you for this

<33333

[Anndralina]

this video really struck a chord with me, it made me tear up. this is all the best things about michigan. makes me miss it alot.

[SuperFisch2010]

I Love your video:D

and the song of course!

[earthling85]

this is lovely.. thank you for sharing :)

[sammieshizam614]

is that seattle?

[acintya7585]

ah.. Life... What an interesting trip it is.. lots of twists and turns, lots of beautiful things to see.. lots of terrible things to see.. focus on the good.

[gypsyqueen1964]

Sons are like birds always flying over the mountain. :( I have 5 sons and only 2 left. Plus one of them will be going off in 1 more year.

[soimarriedsarah]

what a beautiful place

[mbc2010]

I wish I had a family. Instead, I drink single malt scotch at 2 PM and watch my dividends role in.

[MyceliaProductions42]

@mbc2010 I like this, and I don't know why. :-)

[drinkswithevil]

what an amazing spot

[BankruptMonopoly]

check out aircastlefishing on mys pace

[ANTIQCOOL]

Many of my favourite things in this video.....lovely. People have said some of our music sounds like Iron & Wine, can't see it myself but I'm not complaining, He is very good :-) follow the link to Antiqcool and Judge for yourself.

[rabbitsuit18]

where is this? it's gorgeous!

[xxantsmarchingxx]

@rabbitsuit18 The video tags say Grayling and Holland Michigan. Northern Michigan is very pretty :)

[lukeisastalker]

i feel like i'm watching my life, not a stranger's. i don't know how to explain that correctly; this video just had a very comforting and familiar feel to it. i loved it.

[lukeisastalker]

this is so beautiful

[justafooolforyou]

Beautiful.

[sisternobar]

this is such a beautiful video.

[semwa]

found this video by searching for Iron and Wine. I'm from Holland (Europe) and ' Iron and Wine' is not known here. A friend of mine sent me a CD and I was lost.. Amazing video, with great music.

[tequilaplease]

@semwa : then listen to port o`brien too!

[catbank]

Really, really nice video to my favorite song! Wish I was there... Cheers from Denmark!

[dylanyoung22]

that was a great video. my favorite part is where your dad (thats a guess) is fishing in the creek. I dont know why but it made me think of my dad and the way you look up to them. nice video and nice song choice my friend.

[oldspiceredzoneclear]

very nice video

[debbieniful]

makes me cry.

[proof327]

what a great video you put together, nicely done

[DevilDog168]

I just collect light houses that's why I asking ^^ I don't live there.

[pancaketray]

The Jesse Lacey cover of this is a dream...

[bugman69]

Yes, that is Holland and where I grew up...totally weird.

[DevilDog168]

that red light house looks like Holland Harbor light, on Lake Michigan. is that it? also song and vid. go great together!

[slayerfan2020]

Great song. does the intro remind anyone of what an unplugged version of Zombie by the Cranberries would sound like?

[thundercalves2]

OH my god yes!!! thats what I was thinking i just couldn't put the pieces together! haha nicely done

[slayerfan2020]

@thundercalves2 haha it was bothering me for a couple hours.

[chrismothlabel]

Music, and video doesn't have to be the "same".... but too me this video shows the feeling of the song... I'm sad if you don't feel it... but maybe you are looking too hard! Love the song... and the video fits perfectly!

[host366]

Both video and music is beautiful :)

[turbotummy]

The video is horrible but the music is great !

I'm not pissed at all lol. Just think the video doesn't represent the music and I stand by that.

Maybe you are the one that needs to chill and think before you blurt things out? If you have something intelligent to say go right ahead but calling me a dick because I don't like someones home-video of them on vacation is kind of infantile.

[turbotummy]

appreciate the small things like cottages on the lake. lol

[turbotummy]

I do not believe this vid represents the song at all.

All I see is a typical upper class, over consuming north-american family with too much money, going around on vacation.

[Acoustico1]

i don't think this is a typical rich north American person at all. i think this person just takes advantage of what they do have to help make life a little more memorable

considering that my family is quite poor, it means a lot that there are some well off people who still appreciate the small things

[Sm0k3dOuTJ03]

I think your just pissed off because their happy...just chill and appreciate the music not be a dick about things. Have a great day and think about things before you blurt comments out. = ]

[legallucy]

sweet video man!

[dashboardcrown]

Great vid and song. Where were these clips shot? The long piers out over the water look like a place I know on Lake Erie in Canada. . .

[neverendingmuthrfuk]

this video is awesome. not only the song but so is the footage. thanks.

[paix221]

If I were to explain how this video and song make me feel, it would take too long. Absolutely beautiful.

[afcullen]

amazing song (:

[Stanosu]

A+ A+ A+

[lisamaudje]

i think this is music we need to protect

[gabbe7]

great job on this .. it should be the official vid of this song

[Truckerlust89]

This is pure serenity

[MyGirassol]

SO beautiful

[EnglishRuler]

Wow been looking for this song for literally years, my sister had it a long time ago and its one of my favorites

[jimdavis2236]

can't tell you how many times i've watched your video. Love how you tied all the good things in life together: family, fishing, camping, dogs, the beach, vacation, roadtrips. You couldn't have picked better music either. Love iron and wine. When i'm feel bummed out i somehow end up at your video. Always brings me back. :)

[BentNeatly]

best summer of your life.

so far...

There will be as great and greater.

Regardless, Genuine joy springs from me when i have this video on.

Live well, like this.

[sisternobar]

this is one of the most beautiful video/song pairings i have ever seen. kudos; it fits perfectly, and i love that you're using a song with clips of a good summer in a vid; it's the kind of thing me and my friends used to always do :)

[shankizzle89]

i really like how your video fit so well with the song. An odd fact I noticed was the dog, and I liked the focus on it, reminds me a soft and easy sublime video.

[cronoukie]

i'm loving this song. i really didn't like this group wen my ex liked them but now i love them and their artistic videos

[memoryblackout]

eh... it's not a group. it's a singer (Samuel Beam) who chose a moniker? Sort of like NeverShoutNever aka Chris Drew? and this isn't the actual video, hence the comment below, stating that this is "almost like the real video for the song"

[PoisonOak97]

im in love with this song. And the videos good too! This is almost like the real video for the song in my mind, it fits so well.

[musicalfan94]

SO CUTii€ ThaT Video ;-D

Please more Klicks!

[bignectar82]

What a beautiful video...life doesn't get much better. beautiful songs always make you recollect beautiful memories

[bcard123]

German short- haired pointer (GSP)

[UtopiaMinor666]

[eposillipo63]

I like this, very moving

[webbster123]

i cried at this video. first time crying on a youtube video. soo beautiful..

[duendeando1]

Man, don't be sad, just grab that moment in your mind and keep it forever. You have to enjoy your life as it comes, the past will not come back. Just think that each day, year, month is an opportunity to enjoy life and have wonderful experiences such as the one you had that summer.

Thanks for the video (absolutely great) and good luck.

[CordyBear1]

Man... I wish I could go back to that time... When my aunt didn't have cancer, when my cousins were so happy and energetic... Now... Now they don't even like to come over for the day... Haven't seen them for so long... Everything just changed, so fast... I just wanna go back before it all...

[yaylifeyay]

And this is why climate change sucks.

[tommy834526]

amazing video!

[zig888zag]

This is incredible. Its like looking at a cross-section of your life. Man.... I don't even know you and I think this is beautiful.

[LaShnike]

The summer of 2007 was a good one for me too...this reminds me of it.

[hillsidee09]

This is the most beautifulest thing I have ever had the pleasure of seeing.

My favorite part is when the boy smiles @you on the board walk in the sunshine.

[filthychimp03]

I dunno who the fuck you are but this is amazing.

[Heather0516]

I second that!

[poosh1001]

Wow, this is video cambined with this song absolutly touched my soul.

[btwimMeg]

i love this mannnn. lol

[TheStemi4ever]

so peaceful

my favorite iron&wine song

[jred7]

where was this shot?

[chevychase]

So beautiful. So very, very beautiful. A great memory of our best summers ever. My best one was very similar to this. Exquisite music to remember it by.

[everybodylovessam]

This song can be romantic, inspiring, and heartbreaking all at the same time. It just depends on what you're thinking about...

[gregwazhear]

so true

[isthisirony]

Iron and Wine never dissapoints.. Sam Beam is an excellent musician and songwriter

[corky20]

One of my favourite ever songs, I listen to this song everyday, never fails to relax me no matter how stressed I am. Also your video fits it perfectly. Thanks

[szirup]

what an amazing beautiful track.thank you very much,it's not only made my day,this will remain an evergreen for me till i die.thx once more my friend:)

[arilalala58]

this song is beautiful, and so was your summer. i love this, it makes me want to cry.

[nosleepthree]

No matter how difficult my life gets, every time I watch this video and hear this song, I feel so calm and peaceful, and I feel happy for you.

[jdeangelis99]

Amazing thank you for this

[the1astlaugh]

I listen to/ watch this video about 3 times a day. It's great. I love German Short Haired Pointers and fishing.  I think I like the Midwest.

[toastmcgrim]

thank you.

[thedavemonster]

Great, happy video and a brilliant, beautiful song, and I'm glad you've got such happy memories to share - but I'm not sure the two go together!

It's a song about a prodigal son apologising to the mother for all the times he has disappointed her - "I Will Follow You Into The Dark" is a beautiful song, but you wouldn't put it to memories celebrating life, would you?

Try it or the next video with "Song from Hope St. (Brooklyn, NY)" by David Kitt! Enjoy!

[gingerstiggy]

it did fit as the lad didnt tell his mom he joined up she didnt know till he had been in a year and sent her a postcard from afgan lol

[toastmcgrim]

well, iron and wine makes great soundtracks for life....every song brings on a flooding slide show of memories, both painful and happy...i think this is a beutiful well timed show of life.

[ichsagelol]

moving

[andiejanefisher]

I hated 2007, but I'm glad that it was a good year for some people. 2009 is the best summer of my life so far.. so yes, things do get better :-)

[smashmouth316]

Reverse that for me 07 amazing 09 worst year of my life

[Whoozinga]

Looks like Ontario Canada, not the Holland clips, the other ones. What a perfect song. These guys are really great!
