  • Fantastic!

  • Going to see Spiers and Boden on Monday at Towersey Folk Festival! I go every year and they've been here more than once! Been every year of my life, I do thank my parents for being so awesome.

  • NIce Violin and song

  • can i buy a studiversion of this?

  • @FabMike corse you can

  • @bagsofbeans and thats what i did, thanks ;)

  • mmmmm...<3

  • Wow, great cover! I love this song. Is that a concertina?

  • It does have a very traditional "feel". Just a lovely treatment, perfect. Thanks NickCNickCNickC for sharing this with us all.

  • well done lads!

  • BRA!!

  • YES I like this a lot. Tom Waits is one of my favorite musicans, And i'm just getting into these guys and Bellowhead, so this is awesome.

  • I know it from Tom Waits, but this song from Spiers & Boden is soo good. I just had to bought it at Apple iTunes.

    Thank you

  • wow thats cool when everyone sings along, because tom waits does that with this song too, i think everyone really enjoyed that.

  • Man this is great all round, vocals are excellent and the feel of the music is great, I think even Tom might like this one. Did I hear the audience join in on the chorus? great stuff

  • i love these two and bellowhead are great! x

  • Beautiful

  • Spiers and Boden are a superb English folk act. Working my way through their recordings and just bought a couple of tickets to see them at Bath Folk club next week. Should be great.

  • Spiers and Boden doing a Tom Waits song - does life get any better?? I think not! Brilliant.

  • Great! Only just discovered my brother is on here - why did I not look before. Keep posting so I can keep a track of him!

  • Hi Pugsley, have you checked in the other BunkFest films? I've put three other Spiers & Boden songs up here... He may be lurking!

    Cheers Nick

  • Fabulous version. Well done, lads. Let's see 'The Briar and the Rose' up here now.

  • Whauw this is folky...in the best sense of the word. Thanks for posting. Otherwise - how would I ever be able to experience such a great joy?

  • simply the best.

  • ...hrhrhr, this is what i call a very very good job. I really liked it. Again, really good. If it was not from Tom Waits , it would be traditional, i had to chuckle about that. Entertainers doing Entertainers Work. And again ,... very very good.

  • Great job

    Keep on playing

  • great job, guys. Ace cover is right.

  • Just one more thing - If you put "Tom Waits" somewhere in the description, or at least add "Tom" to your tags (and not just Waits), you'll be bound to get more hits. It's a great shame that this hasn't received more views in more than a month than it has.

  • Thanks for the comments MightTiny. This was my first post on YouTube and I'm still getting the hang of things. I think I know how to make better video quality too now so watch this space...

    Cheers Nick

  • Truly wonderful! Great treatment of a great song. It's such a perfect singalong too. It's almost impossible NOT to sing along. :)
