MUMFORD AND SONS

[rhysgall88]

THE WHAT SONG?

[TheMandolineer]

This song was named after the illegitimate child of Marcus' mandolin & Winston's banjo, born in a hobby shop off of I-72 after the instruments fell in love and ran away together in search of a better price for a Costco chicken bake. They received a lot of flack from the band, especially Winston, who had a very personal connection with his banjo. He & his banjo went through a lot together, notably a zombie apocalypse. Winston has since put his banjo on a leash & only lets it outside on Tuesdays.

[TheManiacThatIsEd]

[xxxxxxxmemaimoxxxxxx]

[kittycat3346]

marcaus isb't so shy anymore but he's soo cute!

[gistris]

OMG! I've just fell in love with this band. They are all SO talented... I could never do what Marcus does with all those instruments at the same time!

Well, I love them playing the instruments, love the voice(s), love the songs, the melodies... EVERYTHING!

I wish that someday they would come to Brazil!!!! I need to see them playing live! =Z

[flopsy1997xfactor]

@gistris you NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED to get their album if you havent got it already :D, its essential, no honestly, its is the best thing ever,

[CallummThompsonn]

@flopsy1997xfactor so true, best thing on my ipod :D

[LiseOigard]

He was SO shy!!

[jula13131]

1:11 when he's starting i've got eargasm :)

[TheHopelessHobo]

Mumford & Sons are probably the most amazing band ever to use a kids toy in their songs! I love them so much, and the connection between Marcus and John Lennon is uncanny!

[The11yessica]

I think it's soooo wonderful how great his voice sounds sans editing :)

[awsinger1]

Probably commented on this video about a million times but I cant get enough of mumford and sons. I think winston should just cut out the crap and marry me now.

[beurownallstar]

Marcus is so adorable in this!

[SpanishPetal]

@Lastaccountgothacked Why are there albums on itunes? Why is my ipod full of Mumford and Sons? Hahaha.

[mmcdowell15]

I am so glad to see these guys making it big. They're amazing.

[caniac102678]

ok, after hearing the xylophone, i've decided they need to do a Christmas album. I know it's cliche as ****, but it would be good.

[Lastaccountgothacked]

I don't really see this band taking off...

[jeshfred91]

@Lastaccountgothacked LOL

[TheWildSong]

@Lastaccountgothacked hate to burst your bubble, but they kinda already have...

[Trilby260]

@Lastaccountgothacked ahaha have you heard of a little song called Little Lion Man?



[Huldiie]

@Lastaccountgothacked haha sorry to tell you that they already have!

[hichimichi]

omg i'm in love with marcus! so adorably shy! lolol

[TakeItEasyC6]

The accordion is a percussion instrument today, and a Fisher Price xylophone, a professional music maker's tool. Is there anything they can't do? Anybody hear "Little Lion Man" at the end?

[1996carlosr]

Are any of these gays I love there music no matter what just woundering

[GregoryJohnsonJr]

god i love irish women

[stefijaneful]

@Jacoooify Thanks someone told me they were Welsh but they didn't sound it.

[Aleon38]

fucking gays i want to kill these cunts by burying a power drill in their foreheads

[blueberricake]

@Aleon38 stfu.

[ZeroDan13]

@Aleon38 You're a fucking moron, Shut up and let us bury a fucking power drill into your forehead.

[Shaddowphax]

Is it actually possible for me to find a song by these guys that I don't love far too much??

[Cyrus150]

@Shaddowphax probably because they reuse the shame shit over and over again? 3:03 to 3:15 is STRAIGHT out of Little Lion Man.

[fedeberckx]

Not to sound like a geek: but the word 'xylo' means 'wood' in Greek, and therefor what everyone calls a xylophone is not a xylophone. A real xylophone is most similar to a marimba. This is more a colorful glockenspiel.

[stefijaneful]

Are they Welsh???? Sorry random I know.

[Shaddowphax]

@stefijaneful No they are from Wimbledon in London although I'm pretty sure Marcus was born in the States :)

[stefijaneful]

@Shaddowphax thanks B)

[TheTwollocks]

@Shaddowphax born in america to english parents who were working in america at the time

[jadorevangogh]

Aw, Marcus is so cute!!

[xRubyGemmax]

arwww they make my heart melt :') i just want to wrap them in cotton wool theyre sooo adorable

[sullyson2000]

I'm gonna change my name from Marcos to Marcus.

[xoOMFGox]

Marcus looks so damn adorable! :3

[Nowinski96]

i had my doubts at first, but now i know for a fact....... Marcus Mumford is the reincarnation of John Lennon

[MrJhm19]

@tomcoletti2353 hi, i know you've gotten a lot of attacks about this but heres one more. what he's playing isn't a toy, it's an instrument. yes, it's designed for kids but it's still an instrument nonetheless and people are supposed to make "music from it!!!" i think marcus is awesome and very talented, but he is playing that xylophone exactly how it's built/supposed to be played. it makes sense to get excited about the fact he's using it, since it works so well here, but not how he's using it.

[michnaas]

This is like years ago before they were big! Awesome! Why does Marcus look so shy?

[Nelson15Alex]

Marcus Mumford looks like a young John Lennon!

[janvandebong]

@Nelson15Alex yeah, but I like him anyway.

[Nelson15Alex]

@janvandebong Never said I didn't like him. I have a solid man crush on Marcus Mumford!

[Scoob505]

I think Marcus has a likkle crush on Pauline! AUH!

[TheWildSong]

@Scoob505 no, he's just really camera shy :) so adorable

[321Green1Fork123]

@tomcoletti2353 a lot of people use xylophones. Thats not to say this song isnt pretty awesome... just saying, dont jizz over it

[agraham211]

These guys are seriously the new beatles.

Not just because they look like them.. lol

[Kpsivad]

@agraham211 hells yeah u got it

[paulrichardhammond]

@agraham211 no chance. absolutly no chancve. the new beatles my arse



[Cynthorrpg1]

@paulrichardhammond You can't spell so your taste in music is suspect as well. Maybe not but maybe so, not no chance - people are tired of pop, rap and screamo. To each their own but my guess is these guys will be musically successful.

[paulrichardhammond]

@Cynthorrpg1 sorry - didn't realise you were the spelling police....

[loverer45]

aaaaw marcus so shyyy

[peterfuhr]

Marcus Mumford lokks here very young. How old is he know?

[birdparkermusic]

I want to save him so badly.

[TheKarls12]

god they all look sooo young :L:L I LVOE YOU MARCUS MUMFORD <3<3

[Tshirts18]

Marcus makes me smile! In fact I can't stop smiling now. :)

[XxTOxiCHeAtsxX]

@tomcoletti2353 a xylophone is actually a musical instrument dude

[awsinger1]

@XxTOxiCHeAtsxX But the one he is using is a toy.

[XxTOxiCHeAtsxX]

@awsinger1 its not it just a smaller more compact version of a big fucking xylophone i use them in college

[nooky100]

They're so shy, its soooo cute! I love them.

[kingxofxsuede]

Marcus's voice makes me live.

[darkdeviljones]

[piccamumford]

[KDre86]

Marcus was soooo shy back then! I mean he's still shy now but has definitely opened up some it seems. It's freakin adorable!

I love how they can stand on a balcony and perform acoustic, having not even been together that long at the time this was filmed, and still sound absolutely amazing. Love them so much.

[RyanFalls]

man, his voice is so suprising

[CammyS12342]

i love ted at the end "BYE!" and marcus was just tooo adorable..so talented this band is.

[lemypie]

Marcus, why are you on the balcony? I told you my bedroom is the second door on the LEFT! Silly man...

[awsinger1]

I have seen this vidio over 70 times and yet I still find myself smiling by the end.

Btw Winston is well fit :[]

[CammyS12342]

[3damnthis]

[awsinger1]

Aw x marcus looks a lot younger :) I love real music thanks

[peacedevonn]

His voice is so perfect<3

[JimThinks]

@92jc2005 Those are acoustic drum sticks. They're used usually when other instruments aren't plugged in so they're not overpowered by percussion.

[92jc2005]

@JimThinks Thanks! I love to know new things about these guys. They are freaking awesome!!

[ToKeepFromGoingUnder]

I love this song and they look so cute! Marcus is so shy. Awww. Thanks for the video.

[K3LLYRI0T]

baby sons.

[emilylovesdixon]

marcus's voice & ben's ray lamontagne-esque voice sound incredibly nice together.

[MissStevie123]

Bloody hell they look young...

[ian041194]

Marcus looks soooo young :o



[92jc2005]

What does Ben bang on the accordian at 2:15? It looks like a fan??

[DanielCiurlizza]

@92jc2005 Those are hot rod drums sticks.

[MyNameAintEarl270]

@92jc2005 They look like a pair of drumsticks. Ah, I remember the days of when I was a avid percussionist...

[73kilkeny]

@92jc2005 2 drum sticks



[92jc2005]

What does he bang on the accordian at 2:15? It looks like a fan??

[squeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

They are just to precious. It's impossible not to love them. <3

[SaRahAnNe3991]

[eligregl]

[kjatl2323]

[johnnyreb86]

I see an accordion, a base guitar, what appears to be a 5 string electric banjo and a mandolin but where is the banjolin?!?!

[Hapsetrolden]

Marcus looks like he needs a hug. I'M RIGHT HERE. Just saying.

[davidlondon500]

nice



[davidlondon500]

nice

[pamplemousse]

What an awful host.. who calls their guests shy?! Isn't that just going to make them more self-conscious? But honestly after watching some interviews with Marcus lately I've noticed him a little too talkative/tad cocky... I like him like this :)

[BurnNoticeManiac]

sooo adorable!

[dreamclocks]

He has such an old raspy voice that you can't stop listening to. Kind of like Ray Lamontagne. LOVEEEEE<3

[winggoddess]

[PvtShweewee]

@winggoddess THE BANJOLIN SONG!!!!

[greenospreyphish]

i miss shy m&s

[Cynthorrpg1]
