Every time I have to step over the baby gate, I sing the chorus of this song. I love ya'll.
This band puts me in a comfortable place and I don't ever want to leave.
I know right I’m only 13 an love this band
The Avett Brothers ALWAYS making North Carolina PROUD!
Darrell/Troy NC
Darrell Latham I live in their town
@@benjamindover4731 yep, I live on Fisher rd...from Fisher rd to hollywood...and I'm a Fisher
@@faustin7756 Fisher Road? Rockwell? Mount Pleasant?
Drift away
When I lost my brother these guys got me through the worst thing that ever happened to me they are family now
Grateful to grow up and grow old alongside this band.
Goddamn right. Diggin for diamonds
What a pure and poignant comment. Agreed!
Agreed.
Yes sir
Truth
The Avett Brothers are a stone cold pack of weirdos and I love them so much. They can do no wrong!
Yea sadly this was the only good song on their new album 😩
What a great song - killer lyrics, such a fun groove- takes me to a very happy place.
There are (good!) days when it’s on an endless loop in my head...
I work a 5am freight shift... it sucks. But I'm allowed to listen to music so it's all good.
This song came on and I had to put down my box of tractor parts just to see who was singing...then I had to start it over to catch the lyrics.
Then i came back hours later when i was finally home so i could see the video.....which was interrupted by someone telling me my two horses had escaped.
I gotta say it was not the worst day I've had but it was pretty shitty.... however the positive vibes were more helpful than i expected... as i was wading through shoulder deep weeds trying to catch two wild ponies the chorus was going on a loop in my head..... high stepping indeed.
So after all that, i FINALLY GOT TO SEE THE REST OF THE VIDEO.
these boys are as good as music can get.
You have a good way with words... have a high steppin Christmas’20.
Emily Pollifax, can I be your next door neighbor? Please!! :)
@@peggygibbons479 sure! better than the ones i currently have lol
Bad ponies lol
"Driving circles in the canyons of my mind" Well said. Great line!
I swear I’ve heard very similar lyrics elsewhere. I’ll have to research. Great song, though.
It's a pretty cliche line
Found it. czcams.com/video/3hcZ4s9cvpw/video.html
@@Blacktop_Rabinowitz good find. Never heard that before.
A lot of lines that morph phrases out of Glen Campbell's "Gentle on My Mind" or Harry Nilsson's "Everybody's Talkin". Similar word structure and beat to the later.
I'm just glad as hell to see a bunch of people getting to dance together on a road and smiling so much for such a great set of lyrics... No more no less why ask for more?
Goddammit. I started this song thinking you boys finally screwed it up. By the end I'm grinning from ear to ear.
One of the best songs released in recent years. Great tune. Awesome lyrics, great message. Love it all. I heard this on XM as I was driving my family from Illinois to Arizona in '19. I handed my phone to my lovely wife and asked here to take a pic of the screen. This is one of those PERFECT songs that gets into your soul the first time you hear it.
Lyrics? Genius. Beat? A bop.
I just found this song on SPRUNG…And I’m in love with it-Thanky Greg Garcia!!!
I can't tell you how not sarcastic this is...
You fellas have quite literally pulled me from the depths of despair, held my hand in both gardens and a mesa once.
Through the streets and into the trees.
As I sit here having my morning coffee listening to some Louis Armstrong with my 15 year old son, Shepard, and pull out my phone, CZcams suggests this song. I let Louis finish before I politely ask Alexa to stop playing (please and thank you, Alexa)
All I can really say is,
Yes, I wore my sunscreen (I'm giggling at this part)
And, truly, Thank you, boys. All of you.
I've never bought a CD (well except for the one I bought through quarterly commissary for my brother)
I've only listened on CZcams, but boy have I worn some grooves into my phone😉
Can't wait till October for Outlaw in Phoenix.
I haven't been to a concert since Prine and Kristofferson in 2015.
Thank you boys so much.
I just hope you realize how your music can affect people's lives.
It saves.
@Author Honest I'm digging your handle!
I'm reading Tropic of Cancer so it strikes me! Author, Honest.
My passion for music runs deep.
Currently, my obsession is TB Sheets, Van Morrison. Can't get enough.
I hope today and tomorrow find you well!
@AuthorHonest the ether, and back into it I shall go.
"The best beggars are choosers
The best winners are losers
The best lovers
ain't never been loved..."
Thanks for another great tune, boys
One of my all time favorite musical hooks... Those simple lyrics snatched me right into this song.... Felt every note and lyric.
Amen to all the wonderful testimonies to this song. 🎶 it speaks to my heart of hope. We all have to die, right? But with no hard feelings, what joy! ❤️🙏
I am a huge old 97s fan and I love this type of music alternative country if you will just wondering where the hell have these guys been all my life they’re right up there on my top favorites list just after hearing this one song I’m hooked Amazing band the Avett brothers.
Right on, word…
I feel something deep when I see their voice, faces and music growing up like this ❤️❤️
Wow. I’m just sooooo in love with their music. This song really hits home for me right now. “Working against the clock just to stay afloat.” Agh, AMEN! I’ve been struggling with money here lately and I needed to hear this.
♥️
Kathleen Tharp you got this! Things will look up eventually 😊
"the best lovers aint ever been loved" next level lyrics.
@marlene riggs I agree, this song is about as annoying as you seem to be.
@marlene riggs sorry I like something and the lyric rang true to me.
marlene riggs yeah they sell out three Nights Red Rocks every year because they are decent
marlene riggs
True. And “The best beggars are choosers
The best winners are losers” is completely fake-deep nonsense.

Popularity =/= artistic merit
AVETT BROTHERS FOR LIFE!!!! 😎❤😁
Playing this now as opposed to last summer when it was released, I'm a little uncomfortable with the prescience of: "The direct line to the hospital just says 'leave a message.'" I didn't really get the line back in June. Now I get it.
A succinct way to say you're on your own.
The best song in the history of country/folk/techno...
They sound as good as ever and great harmonies. I like getting a speech from a man in a cornfield wearing a skeleton suit lmao
Good one!😅
maybe, probably the best harmony since The Everly Brothers
I was happy to hear this song getting lots of play on Sirius/XM, but unfortunately they cut out Seth's interlude
the harmony is key.
with all the shit hop and auto tune bouncing around on the radio, young uns have NO idea what talent is.
i grew up on blue grass and the Everly Brothers.
Roger Miller and Johnny Cash.
Johnny Horton and Jim Reeves
Hank Sr and Jean Autry
These guys are the real deal
SAME!! Ima LISTEN to that guy! :)
Every now and then when things get rough, and I start to doubt things can just be good, these guys drop a new single and I calm the F down. Thanks avett brothers.
Words can’t describe how much I am happy with this song ❤️❤️❤️
Same! I can't stop listening to it.
I have no words for this. Kinda stuff that makes ya feel you have come in contact with the unified field. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
I cannot express how amazing it is to hear something new from them because.. Being a fan for so many years, I've learned that there's quite a bit of time between each release... But for more than good reason. These men don't just mass produce what they feel is in demand by their audience at that moment in time. They create ONLY what they genuinely feel is the most impactful, perfected, and necessary lyrical art that should be heard in the world they live in right in that moment. So that being said, I have so much respect, love, and admiration for these two!!! Don't stop doing what you're doing!!
Well said…
Hi
It's a beautiful & heart touching song❤❤Hello from Scotland!.
How are you doing today? I guess you have a great passion for music just like I do? I hope to hear from you soon!!!
One thing about music is that when you're sad you listen to the lyrics, when you happy you dance to the beat!
Buzz cut Seth as "Death"?!!? I'm SHOOK!!😍
Right?!?! 😍
There is that!!! I literally didn't process that until now!! Lol!!
His hair will be to his butt by next week.
Corrie Allen AHHHHH I KNOW
William Ramsey I hope so lol me and my mom were sad when he cut it all off 😂😢
I dont think they are capable of making a bad album! Love y'all, from Alabama respectfully!!!
God, I love this. The lyrics and melody are classic Avett, but those rhythmic synths open it up and push it forward so much... Can’t wait for the album!
Just knowing these guys are writing and putting out new music brings me a steady and consistent sense of happiness and peace.
@marlene riggs Lol bro u can cry it's ok
Anyone that gives anything they do a thumbs down should be ashamed of yourself.
tavis Foster Amen... They’re the real deal in every sense of the phrase. 🙌
I have been following the Avett Brothers for about 10 years now, and what I find is that their music has grown in line with their own growth and experiences. Music is a form of expression and if a keyboard riff is not your thing, that's ok. There are chances that there are 5+ songs on the album that are vintage(ish) Avett. When Ain't No Man came out, everyone roasted them, called them sellouts and asked for Rubin's head. Then No Hard Feelings comes out and everyone says that it's quite possibly Seth's best song (his opus, as commented several times). Sometimes it's fun to sit back and play their albums in order and see how they've evolved over the years.
The show Sprung has brought me here I don’t wanna leave now
I have so much to say about the perfection of this song and video but...they're line dancing. They BETTER do this when performing!!
Deena Oranges I’m going Sunday to see them , I’ll let you know 😀😀😀
When I worked at Barnes and Noble this played at least 5 times a day.
*Dear stranger whoever reads this:*
.

👇
*God bless you and stay safe. You are a smart and awesome person.*
New Avett Brothers video and a new Sturgill Simpson song released on the same day?!? Can't wait to see this song live and dance like a fool to it!
for real, I watched them back to back. great day.
Got a perfect square for a circle of friends!!! HEART HEART HEART!
I don't know how many times I've watched this. So fun and campy! Great song.
Their music just gets better and better Lyrics are almost always thought-provoking but the vocals and instrumentals have improved a lot over the years
I told 'em that... but they dont buy the truth! 🙌🏻🎶🎤💗
"I got a perfect square for a circle of friends" I like that!
Speaking of circle, this record is a circle ... a circle jerk.
marlene riggs You clearly hate this band yet you comment on multiple comments? How sad is your life? Yikes.
Bob Crone @ Bob Crane.
Don’t you see the change in Scott’s negative outlook of people in the first half? “ It’s the four of us against The rest of you”. Have a high Steppin, hi bettin, Lobe giving, Love “Getting, “ Stranger (I) love stretching out MY wheels. Overnight on the desert strip, making time and losing grip. ( going too fast , therefor missing out, and hence losing grip on his High Steppin feeling or belief. ) Desert strip is without others and no real beauty. Sand, & dust.)
Driving circles in the canyons of my mind.(this implies he’s driving nowhere. No I know where you’re getting nowher in increased love, knowledge, and wisdom.
I’m outside are looking in, I’ve got a perfect square or a circle of friends, it’s the four of us against the rest of you.
Who the four are isn’t known. Possibly the four ( main) band members. But that’s all he has for against billions. sounds as if they started out close minded and lacked many friends. He also says he’s an outsider looking in. He’s an outsider he’s probably chosen to be looking in to see if there something better.
But really I am all alone, I’d Sell them out to save my own, tell them that but they won’t but the truth. ( Again outsider/ alone pretty much the same.)
( someone out to save your own?) That sounds pretty selfish.
Tells them what they want by the truth( maybe the good in him he isn’t aware of yet)
Seth: swore out there folks. Are you working for success,Order be rich or God Help us famous, Or you’re working against the clock just to stay afloat. You got your nose all scraped up from the grind stone, you’re digging for diamonds and only finding rhinestones. meanwhile it’s August and the taxman has never heard of Summer vacation. You looking after yourself for taking care of babies, taking care of your old man or your old lady, Direct line to the hospital just says leave a message. See you can only live one day at a time, only drive one hot rod in the time, only say one word at a time, only I think one thought at a time, every soul is alone when the day becomes night, and there in the dark iif you can try to see the light, In the most pitch dark shape of the loneliest shadow Then you ought To sleep well for sure.
( Here is when Scott hears the (if) and he then HAS hope!) So his attitude shifts from alone, driving endless, to Hey!
The Very last word is love love love and dancing with others found friendship and evening instead 04 against the rest to you.
Love does that for us folks so good news . There is light in the pitch dark shape of the loneliestShadow and that’s our Flickr of hope.
The best burgers are choosers( That’s pretty much well-defined the best beggars choose what they beg for rather than just taking anything)
The best winners or losers
( losing text integrity as long as you excepted it may be improved from it that makes you a better winner)
The best lovers a never been loved that’s so obvious yet not a constant but it’s very possible
( imagine someone loving for 20 years very very well but they really never been loved back and they didn’t know it, then once they are really loved a great lovers they were before while not being loved now being actually loved you’re gonna be the very best moments because I’ve already been a long and they got a lot more to give receiving mode now so the best lovers have never been loved)
First play saying easy. Is it ever?
The hardest part is believing.( Yes it’s hard to believe that you can improve what Scott learned saying if you can see a light in the pitch dark shade of a lonely shadow as hard to believe that and become Abi so here’s his hardest part is believing that he was strong enough to do it he did now he’s out there dancing Rather than riding down the road frowning during or Skilton that I believe is his sad that he doesn’t like.
Thanks to all who read new it was awful long. Does anyone agree/disagree?
These guys just get better and better with each album... Bravo!
Living one day at a time!
Hope for sure!
I’ve got here to see that super gorgeous 1960 F-100 CustomCab big window , and you guys blown my mind with your awesome traditional Nudie suit cowboy outfit and that dude with the skeleton clothes is so cool , then I heard the lyrics you guys reached my soul in so many levels .... I am a fan for life now . I am gonna forward it to my boss Ryan he’s a cool dude he’ll love to hear ya lyrics . All the best from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️
The speech in the middle has so many great lessons
If anybody needs me I'll be watching this on repeat for the next couple of hours...
Same.
Same lol
oh HELL YES!
Lol already listened to it 3 times on the drive home from work
You watch reruns of America’s Got Takent as well?
Came here from Colleen Hoovers Will & Layken, when I first heard your music I thought it was quite boring. Two weeks ago I heard you again and now I love your music😊 Every day when I make my homework I'm hearing you and it fills my heart with love. I don't know how I could find your music not good. Especially I love Live and Die, I and love and you, Murder in the city,morning song, no hard feelings, ain't no man and this one❤ You're so inspiring and I think I became an other person bc of your songs, which are like poets. Just never stop making this kind of music!
Lele Marie I came here a couple weeks ago from Will and Layken as well. I was wondering how many other people found them because of Colleen Hoover
Just found out about this song on a Delta flight. Amazing song!
Is there a way to like this video more than once?!?! Going have this on repeat all day!
Love the truck!
I always knew my people were out there! Thank God I found you! Love it!!!
Best Country song in the last decade!!!!
High steppin amazing band!!!!
Thankful to have seen them twice here in Atlanta. And to know they are from my home State NC. is amazing!!!
NC is da best
We love the avert brothers love Nora ❤
I love how comfortable they are in creating and evolving their style, all while keeping steady in coming up with lyrics that continue to encourage self reflection. Catchy and deep, as always from the Avetts.
Well said man !
This is style evolution to you? That’s funny because to me it’s constipated similitude at its very worst.
Now, that's what I call #Edgy

Nice view point
Joe Greene you’re a fucking moron🤣
Once again, an amazing song from these guys.
It just makes you feel good. Lyrics and the music are amazing
Didn't immediately like this song, but its such a bop, love it now.
These guys have come a long way from Emotionalism, I truly dig it, and this video made me smile a lot. Kudos to the Brothers Avett, still some of the best damn song writers out there.
Frawnk F From “emotionalism” to what, exactly? Self-conscious dribble? Contrived tail-chasing? Millennial metaphoric grappling? Forced allegory? Banal similitude?
Shall I go on?
@@bobcrone6151 If you don't like it, why take the time to watch the video and leave a negative comment? Every band has a lane they tend to stay in, or a formula that they kind of abide by. Their sound is a little different now, and while I like their early folk sounding records probably a little bit more. I still am willing to give credit where credit is due. They are great lyricist and good song writers in my opinion.
Frawnk F The A Bros crowd get triggered by dissent? Aw. Sowwy. What. Is this a millennial clone-only channel?
MusicLover who said I wanna hang out...
@@bobcrone6151 Nobody is triggered, you can say what you want. I'm curious as to what kind of music you like. Or what you're point from your first comment is. Are you saying they have not progressed as a band. Or that overall there music just sucks because of all that non sense you said about forced metaphors or whatever? Have you ever been in Avett Brothers fan? Do you like folk music? What do you think is so much better?
The Avetts have done it again
I just watched them perform in Toronto! They are amazing
Also, you have to love that truck in the video. So sweet.
Always a good song to get the day started.
High steppin! ✊💯✊
Love the Papa Emeritus II makeup! If you have ghosts, you have everything.
What? Joe didn't wanna line dance!🤣
You guys can be so profound and not take yourselves so seriously. I love that about you Avett Bros.
Getcha some, Bob!
First impression is that this will be this record's 'Satan Pulls The Strings.' High production on the album and raw Avett energy in the live performances.
Good observation! Was thinking the same thing. The live version is really good.
They've done it live already and yes...I think you are right. As always, the live performances are what matters. As long as my face gets rocked off each time...I'm am in!
It is, as I heard it at the debut in Richmond, and it was AWESOME. Took me several listens to get used to this when it was released a few days later.
Sprung brought me here.
Haha me too. Check out trampled by turtles and longhorn slim
We’re in this together. Keep writing music. We can accomplish wonders
SO happy to hear new music from the boys
I know it's gonna be a good day with new Avett music. The video seems to me to be a parody of the pop country that radio is force fed. Seth's monologue thankfully saves this from the clutches of west Nashville.
This one was tough for me to warm up to....but saw them play it live earlier this week....and it was a genuine highlight.
High stepping all day
*Lets see how many legends are listening to this in 2021*
👇
The beat just hits you hard.
Can't get enough of this!! Then again I feel like that with most everything that comes from the Avett's. Plus Scott's outfit is everything :) ~Concord, NC
Theresa H looks like a video Brandon flowers and the Killers would do. Love it
Hello Theresa H,
I'm from North Carolina also, hope you're proud of these guys as I am.
Hi
It's a beautiful & heart touching song❤❤Hello from Scotland!.
How are you doing today? I guess you have a great passion for music just like I do? I hope to hear from you soon!!!
One thing about music is that when you're sad you listen to the lyrics, when you happy you dance to the beat!
Wow. This song blows.... damn
Bobby C leading the line dancing = perfection.
Saw them through a rough Midwest storm but they stuck it out and it was dope
Shout out to Gold Hill Rd. and Mount Pleasant.
This song's got it as does the video - setting filmed in and fabulous outfits
You guys blew my mind ❤️❤️❤️👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼🇦🇺
They never disappoint! Can't wait for more!
Never felt such a strong desire to take square dance class...
Pure joy thank you very much
The I like turtles boy has done good for himself
😂😁😂😁😂
What will you do with your "Winner of all The Internet" award?
Honestly what a glow up
I understand this reference!
HAHAHAHAHA!
I'm still confused... this is about soul awakening. I'll agree
It's turtles all the way down
I love this song
Anybody wish this song was longer?
OOOOHH MY! Just when I thought these guys couldn’t get better. Oh My My!
Many won’t share my sentiment but Rick Rubin has given these guys the confidence to evolve and stay true to their style. The most original band going right now and there isn’t a close second.
I gotta tell ya, as for "most original" and "no close second" - that's not remotely true. Example: check out Lake Street Dive. They go hard. Unlike anything else out there.
Totally agree. Rick has really helped them evolve. Kind of weird they are closely associated with one of the highest profile producers in the world but he's popular for a reason. I think you hit the nail on the head.
Joe Greene That's hilarious... they have several covers in their repertoire, and none of those are their "best song". They have an impressive catalogue, and extensive training. Plus they write ALL their own material.. Gimme a break XD
Also, this song sounds like shit lol
@@HDthis write a better one
I knew after watching this video that it would ruffle a few feathers. Lots of people are hating on this, I just don't understand why you would want your favorite artists to stay inside the lines and never try anything new. The Avett Brothers can do no wrong in my eyes. When you have a group of insanely talented artists who can actually write meaningful lyrics, you get genuinely "good" music. Doesn't matter what kind of genre box you try to put them in they will always make great music.
amen brother.
You can not like it and still love them and want them to keep creating.... I just find the talking part boring in the middle of almost any song... but I love the rest of the song.
You have won a fan from Brazil.
Nice Music!
Ahhh my hometown ♥️ MP
Man, I love that bouncy beat...I was just thinking “how many possible songs are there ? Just floating around in the either...waiting to be sung.🤔🧐
From Johnson City, Tennessee: Great Freakin Sound!
I like everything about this!
