  • This kind of music is calming to so many people. I cant satnd it when you ask for something calming and they play rock and roll. This is what people like to listen to.

  • Amazing. I wish all my friends appreciated this kind of performance/music. Sometimes you send a link to your friends to watch and then half of them never even tell you anything about it like it didn't touch them at all or it wasn't memorable. Why doesn't everyone love this?

  • It helps that this is in english because I have to learn this song for my music gcse

  • Amazing rendition of a classic poem.

  • simply wonderful - hearttouching

  • This is beautiful. And makes me want to learn to play the guitar.

  • this is an interpretation. a lot of it is very different from the original text.

  • am i being dumb but i thought that dude was a writer?

  • Goethe was a writer and he wrote the poem, Der Erlkönig. I think the first noted song version of it was done by Franz Schubert.

  • actually Carl Löwe wrote a song version too, at about the same time that Schubert wrote his. would be interesting to compare the two...

  • YAY! this is my favorite Josh Ritter song!

  • This isn't a Josh Ritter song...He merely does an amazing version of it.

    I believe the original was german and is pretty old. Easily older than Josh himself most likely

  • thank you for posting this!!  this is my favorite
