After I listened to this, I felt really small. I have no passion. I thought the syn problem was so probablimatic.

[fatstupidwhatever]

@Israe5l how the shit are people still commenting about the audio sync. READ THE COMMENTS, GEEZ.

[Israe5l]

@fatstupidwhatever Thats why I felt small.

[fatstupidwhatever]

@BenjaminCGraham there are links to the corrected audio version as well as the full npr show in the video description.

@icemunster Trust me. Playing guitar will get you through everything. As will tMG.

[MDinToledo]

This is a lovely version, thanks. Too bad about the audio, and funny that he accidentally muffs the most beautiful line he ever wrote ("The most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway..."). I don't care. He can do that if he wants. I'd give the man a kidney.

youtube.com/watch?v=zW69F2yvF2­Y someone fixed the audio. (this is in the video description, btw. mine gets a lot more hits for some reason, so i leave it up to redirect people!)

@fatstupidwhatever

Hey, thanks. Sure didn't mean to be critical or anything. It's good stuff.

It's funny. You can spend an hour on YouTube looking at different clips of "Going to Georgia." Rightly so, I guess. But I just want ONE good one of "Downtown Seoul." And there's only one halfway decent clip of "Old College Try," damn it. I want more. With the internet, we can never be satisfied.

@icemunster

good for you man. pick up that guitar and stick with it.

[boiledhooker]

I was drunk and hit the dislike button on accident :( but i button mashed the "like" button to make up for it

[blankwavemessiah]

I can rip this, re sync. and send if youd like

[sirgecko]

Love the part where he screws up and then goes right back into it.

[archy2frank2]

Just found out about this song yesturday. I've been listening to alot of folkpunk and acoustic punk lately on Pandora. When this song came on I almost pushed the dislike button when I heard his voice but I didn't because of his words and the driving emotional feel of the song. Half way thru I was singing along and all day today I've been looking for more info about Th mountain Goats and all their music.

@archy2frank2

Check out this live version of No Children. Great lyrics and lots of emotional energy.

@archy2frank2 Sorry we can't all sing like John Mayer. i.e- on Quaaludes.

[archy2frank2]

@EntropicMisanthropic Haha John Mayer? Funny. Not my cup of tea, also he sings like he's high and has a secret he wants to whisper in your ear.

[barefootJoyful]

Best version of this song posted so far :)

Bummer about the audio being off though.

But still a very good and clean sound in comparison to the other videos... gotta love this man!

[fatstupidwhatever]

@barefootJoyful

Yeah sorry about the audio. I saved it from a stream, and somewhere along the way to, well, here, it got screwed up. I guess I can't post links in comments, but I just updated the video description with a link to the non-screwed up original show at NPR's site.

[LauraGarciaCervantes]

sad about the audio. happy this man exists.

[TheEyegarian]

@LauraGarciaCervantes you can get it on itunes for free
