  • YES.

  • this song makes me tear up. Idk what it is its just magic.

  • so. fucking. beautiful.

  • This takes me to another place. It's so emotionally moving. I love Sam Beam. Probably my favourite song off this album. This particular song reminds me of Ali Murray. You should check him out if you like music that is sad and dreamy and beautiful.

  • awesome song. but what the fuck is with these pictures?

  • Why is it that so little people know of sam beam or atleast iron and wine. We all know einstein yet he helped create a deadly device, when sam beam is making beautiful music that not many know of.

  • @marleebelle really? -.-

  • 4:11 EW.

  • I'm just a little bit gay for Samuel Beam's voice.. and that beautiful, beautiful beard..

  • i'm studying abroad in singapore for several months now. and i met a gorgeous girl who i had been seeing for quite some time. i leave to go home now that my semester is over, and will continue school back in my home town. i left three days ago, but before i left, i made love to her at midnight to this song. it was truly the most beautiful thing. it is now a fever dream, a memory. thank you iron and wine.

  • have'nt heard a tune like this in a very ..very long time..* Thank You

  • I've never been truly convinced that words could describes ones feelings fully and perfectly, especially the feelings of love for someone else.. Sam Beam has shown me otherwise.. Purest, most beautiful poet and musician I have ever known.

  • i'm just coming back from a long travel and it just makes me feel....good.

Everyone in nado just calls em the Mummy Islands cos from Nado the islands look like a mummy. But nado is right next to downtown sd, were just across from the harbor where the ferrys and cruise ships go out and such

  • @theworldthatwelivein def not the catalina islands. we left the harbor right in downtown sd. you sure there is no islands right of the coast where u live?

  • hahaha ohmygot the part where it says coronado islands trip made me crack up...... I LIVVE HERE. haha were not an island, were an isthmus, and theres only one of us. i love it here, but i feel liike people make such a big deal out of it! haha

  • @eepetius you just said it.

  • and since that summer, i've never been happy even one time

  • This song reminds me of my "âme soeur", I've met her in summer 2010, we used to listen to this song all the time we were together. Now, 1 year after, I haven't seen her since that period. And I don't know if I'll see her again. I'm 19 now, she's 36, but I love her, that's all I know, and I think she doesn't, but anyway, i mean, i love her by a spiritual way, i've never wished to see her naked or anything sexual, the true love. don't know why i write that, sorry

  • @AmeZiaable was she married?I like what you wrote above ^^

  • @MimisaysRAWR No whe was not married, and she'll never be, she's like a grown up teenager, you know, a boyfriend once in awhile...

  • This is wonderful. Love it. :)

  • i love <3

  • there isn't much music these days whose beauty just makes you cry. thank you iron and wine.

  • This song is like a drug.

    it does something to my insides. <3

  • This song/band makes me want to cry it's/they're so good.

  • @pvtfawkes.  Thanks man :)

  • i like the song but i was looking for the one in 300 :D

  • I'm 16, I'm in high school and I just met the most perfect girl iv ever met, Now it's summer time and I can't see her anymore and she said she was moving to another state, this song makes me feel so much better about everything and it makes me think of all the good times I had with her. God I'm gana miss you Coral :'(

  • @csvanquishftw Don't worry about it man your only 16. I had a similar problem when i was your age, I'm not going to give you the whole fish in the sea speech because I hated that. I will say that things work out in the end. Not like in the story books but you move on, and who knows you might even see her again someday.

  • @csvanquishftw im 17, and i just did one of those farts that burn on the way out. :'(

  • @jtuxw1994yt actually lolling.

  • @csvanquishftw FUCK.

  • @csvanquishftw Hey you're lucky, to have felt what you have is better than never experiencing something like it, trust me. Fight the pain man, and you're golden

  • @csvanquishftw lol what a fuck ugly name

  • @csvanquishftw ....her name is Coral?

  • @csvanquishftw this is why music is made :)

  • @csvanquishftw idk u man but i feel u

  • I get such a wonderful sense of well-being and depth listening to this.

  • Everyone should hit thumbs down on the comment below so it will disappear.

  • The tuning that will get your guitar sounding close to this is simply standard tuning. However, you should take a tuner and tune each string down a small bit so that it's just slightly off ( low E for example would be tuned down so that it's just below E). Then do the same for the high E, but tune it down to a D. Use a capo on the second fret.

  • i could listen to this forever

  • This is my favorite Iron & Wine song ever.

  • This song makes me think the happiest thoughts.

  • great job finding the photos,great pictures and portraits:).

    P.s.who is the girl at 2:03,she looks so much like lauren lee smith...

  • I've only been listening to Iron & Wine for about a week now, and every song I hear I want to learn it on guitar, I love this.

  • My attempt to look up a word that would describe what this song is for me: Assuaging

  • @godsenthellraiser he uses a capo

  • I wish I could play along with this. It sounds funny when I do. Is Sam out of tune?

  • @GodsentHellraiser I think he tuned his guitar in drop d and still uses a capo,sounds like magic:).

  • sweet dreams

  • i want this song to be played on my funeral

  • superb, beautiful and soulful, thanks for this, added to my collection of chill/ meditation tracks

  • gorgeus

  • not sure if i like the pictures. great song though. :)

  • @TheMadamemayhem i think that they go perfectly with the lyrics

  • rannndom pictures..? haha

  • it's an amazing song, and the pictures in the video are really beautiful :)

  • @PartyPhooterify Cool story, bro.

  • @ZazuZealous wasn't me that posted that, asshole friend being a cock

  • I can't explain how much i love this song... It's one of the song that represent my life :'

  • Very delicate and beautiful.  Really flawless.

  • 8

    people have no ears

    thumbs up!

  • I love Iron and Wine. Samuel Beam can really relax me. He gives me another perpective of the world.

  • this is so beautiful, the song and the pictures that go along with it.

  • @Novantii what is wrong with you man, that's sick.

  • music like this makes me stumble three steps back while I am trying to take one step forward in life and love. Its like he read my pain from the page of a book and turned it into a song.. </3

  • Whats the genre?

    

  • @sandupvag101 amazing?

  • @sandupvag101 indie, folk,

  • I think this song is more about what she wants from him. In her "fever dream" she talks in her sleep and says "I want your flowers like babies want God's love..." The flowers represent his affection or something similar. "Honest words she can't afford to say, like..." So, she's afraid to admit how badly she wants his affections, but he knows anyway. The song as a whole is like a representation of his feelings of guilt for making her feel this way. Maybe I'm wrong, I dunno. Beautiful song.

  • @Kellims313 you've sumemed it up well and the thing is I am/was in the exact same situation as the female part of this song... </3

  • @ThisMissMonica Thank you. And I love when music is relateable to our lives. It's good to know that we're not alone in a situation. I hope things get better for you or did get better.

  • 2:56 O.O It scared me badly... :(

  • This is my and my boyfriend's song. I remember one of the first times we were together he played this and I was in his arms and I remember wishing this moment would never end. Now whenever I hear it and he's not next to me, it literally is so gut wrenching and brings tears to my eyes. I love the way he softly sings it or whistles it. I love him so much it hurts. I love this song. It's our song. It's amazing. And God, so is he ...

  • I have never seen a band inspire as much love as Iron and Wine :')

  • so cute monkeys

  • I love you Robert Dean Alexander. 8.20.10. You complete me. Without you, I'm nothing.

  • I Love You Amber Rose. Even through all the time and space. Your the song in my head and beat of my heart.

  • lovely song and lovely pictures......but a little randon i thought....yet i still really enjoyed it

  • i love all the little animals! the turtle is so adorable.

  • i want your flowers like babeis want Gods love...

    that line tears to my eyes for so much more than i can explain

  • His tuning is down like half a step to what the tabs I got off the internet say, but it still sounds awesome.

  • can anyone tell me what type of guitar has been used in this music? is it a normal acoustic or a spanish?

  • @EhtishamK700i Acoustic Plug in

  • I just can't stop to repeat and repeat this music.

  • LOVE THE PICTURE OF THE RAIN

  • this dude is epic... his songs are amazing...

  • It's such an amazing song!

    Nice pictures! :)

  • 1:23.. OMG A FUCKING BUSH

    GREAT SONG!!

  • Beautiful images to a completely gorgeous song....perhaps Sam Beam is an angel teleported from above to help us smile and cry and feel equally good about both. Great artist :)

  • This is the first time I've heard this song, I had chills throughout the entire time.

  • the last four pics are supposed to represent love til death, and getting old together

  • i love the pictures you used for this video. :) good stuff!

  • good song... weird pictures

  • :D :3 :P

  • i love the guitar

  • the 2nd to last picture, the old couple. the man makes me think of Bill Murphey(?) Murrey(?) in Life Aquatic. ok, i'm gonna have to turn my monitor off this time to listen to the song. put way to much attention into looking at your pics.

  • this song is amazing! so is the band, they are very deep and always make me reflect upon myself. thanks for the great music!

  • Wow. Truely beautiful. Thank you.

  • As you can probably tell by my name, i generally dont listen to very soft music. but this song is one of the most beautiful i have ever heard

  • where did you get the picture at 3:46? its really cute!!! with its puffet out ckeeks!!! what is it?? lol

  • This song seems as if a man is watching his loved one sleep, and softly sings to her: How he remembers her and the little things she does (Shape in the doorway), and when she sleeps her face is like beautiful child peaceful and soft ( her fever dream, language on her face) then he notices how beautiful she is when she sleeps, ( I want your flowers [your beauty] like babies want God's love). He longs for her beauty, or in other words he wants to be with her.

    Beautiful song. Very peaceful.

  • First track that I ever teared up while listening to. From the way I interpret the meaning and compare it to my relationship, I felt the track as being a God fearing man with a girl that seeks somewhat of the opposition. While caring so much about this woman and wanting to spend my forever with her, but she fights the enlightenment of her own soul, and God reaching out to her. So I sit and pray for her life and that someday she will understand. It hurts, but I love this woman, waiting.

  • 3:50 Baby chewbaccas? O.o

  • amazing song, great video edit :)

  • thanks for this vid dude

  • I ignore from where, such inspiration come from.

  • This song makes me think.

    I love it.

  • I seriously get tears in my eyes every time I listen to this song, it's so beautiful. A lot of Iron & Wine songs do that to me.

  • This song,its great.

    thanks for uploading,really.

  • One of the prettiest songs in the world.

  • Canta muy lindo!!!! =)

  • that was really well done, congrats on the pictures

  • i adore this song beyond words.

    absolutely beautiful.

  • @AllusiveConceptions did you ever play it for her?

  • @AllusiveConceptions I started playing about seven months ago, roughly around the time when you posted this, for the same reason . . . but with the song 'Skinny Love' by Bon Iver =)

    I hope you mastered the song on your guitar and that she appreciated the gesture!

  • @AllusiveConceptions You are the sweetest.

  • @AllusiveConceptions

    what an incredibly lucky girl. most of us spend our whole lives looking for love.

  • @TheMadamemayhem Yes, lucky indeed. Not to break the sentiment but she found it with someone else. Thank you for the comment though.

  • @AllusiveConceptions i noticed that commented about 9 months ago, so care to share how it went? :)

  • @totallyawsome96 It's actually quite interesting to look back at this 9 months later and see all of the comments since. Thank you for asking, but unfortunately things did not work out. She didn't feel the way I did about her and she is with someone else right now.

  • When I want to get a nap .. I always listen to one of iron and wine songs ... And this song is realy nice :))

  • I am catalan but it's a amazing song. If you lisents this song you will can think (sorry for the mistakes I don't speak english)
