[Aaronsmithmagic]

I love when he disappears into the darkness of the stage at the end.

[cursiver]

hahah lovely

[Pceimouttahere]

OMG!!!! After he says 'I take a breath" someone coughs LOL i was like, BREATH FAIL!!!

[houstongolden]

I love when everyone starts singing a long! beautiful... such a great song and a great inspiration for all of us singer/songwriters!

[jake0112]

[annieandi90]

so much emotions..

[bigbookofnothing]

I always do the backups when listening to the acoustic! don't anyone else do that?

[36drummer09]

Very wonderful song !!!

[mandaMartini]

Ben "Grizzly Adams" Gibbard here.

[upthebracket123]

this is amazing

[coreyjayy]

ben gibbard postal service cover? um he is postal service.....lol

[MrWolves90]

where was this? was this at MSU?

[kimchee918]

What happened at about 1:10?

I'm confused...

[TheTempestKing]

People started to sing and then realized he might not be ok with it. That's why he said what he did about singing along later on in the song.

[seldo1]

he laughed because he was surprised that people actually sung the voice reverb - like in the original song

[ItsBetterWithToast]

people started singing the backing

[redheadfinzo]

Someone coughed loudly earlier...that might be it. Hahah, i'm not too sure though.

[TheIloveatari2600]

no its not they tried to sing backup and ben thought it was funny

[WeArePurpose]

@redheadfinzo Actually it was because people in the audience started singing harmony (or "backup" as Thelloveatari2600 called it).

[StretchDarko]

Ben Gibbeard lol

[WeAreTheLoveMovement]

good song

and btw its not a cover since hes the singer in postal service xD

[recycledairacoustic]

Did he write this song? What a voice he has .. and cool beard.

5 stars

[ItsBetterWithToast]

there's something about your acount that tells me you like this version of the song...

[lewecca]

LOL

[lifeisafight]

the funniest thing i've ever seen

[cwagner87]

I was so happy this made me cry. Ben Gibbard, I love you. And you are absolutely Genius.

[XiansiX]

ben freakin gibbard i love you bro

[nataliexx13]

the crowd starts singing backups and it actually sounded good.

ben stops singing and goes "thats alright!"

and encourages the audience to keep singing.

i love him.

[atanu70]

what a voice the guy has!

[rhsstinks]

I just love this guy so much. I read an artical wrote by him, and it changed my life. it really made me get back into my art, because now i see that my passion (drawing and painting) is the only thing that i will have for ever, ppl come and go, objects, materilistic things come and go, but i will always have that to hold on to. <3

[emileederie]

oh that sounds amazing what is this article?

[drummerattic]

hey can you please put a link of the articles?

[kerstea]

I wasn't exaggerating. In my opinion he is. I saw Death Cab live and Ben Gibbard just blew my mind. I love him.

[bgaimur]

I love this song. All of his songs are amazing.

[kerstea]

This song is so beautiful it makes me want to cry but it's so amazing it makes me smile. Ben Gibbard = most amazing musician ever.

[torment0fsin]

amen

[gophins23]

ha. hes awesome. but i hope your being a little bit sarcastic about the most amazing musican EVER part.

[Gibb819]

would only really be sarcasm if he was actually the WORST musician ever. which he most certainly is not. I think what your looking at here is a hyperbole. :)

english lesson over, i like this song =D

[recycledairacoustic]

I love Ben's beard. For some reason is my life I have always wanted to have a beard like that and long hair.

Ben though is known for his golden live preformances.

[airguitar8990]

Sometimes i wish Ben and I could go have coffee and talk about stuff.

[wrnchhead76]

No flippin doubt!

[JSmusic32]

@airguitar8990 HAHAHA idk why but that made me laugh so hard. It would be so cool to drink coffee with him though. one of my favorite vocalists/lyricists. very unique.

[ClorophyllFilms]

@airguitar8990 Hipster.

[terracrush1234]

Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful.

[hongkongfui923]

[onedarkflame85]

[vanzo182]

[greeninkstains]

The beard! He looks like Bill Bryson. Amazing song.

[jacobthesilent]

[CataclysmicBeefstick]

That was nice. I like how the crowd was singing the backup vocals.

[jerk54]

[titanium972]

If I were Ben, I'd feel awkward singing "Ba ba ba ba" over and over again.

[jordanhoward2]

Well then everyone's glad your not him, hey?
