The lyrics are from Scott to his wife...when she was ill in the hospital...then about their wedding...then finding out about her pregnancy. Mostly a reflection of his deep love for her and being blessed with the life they have together. It's pretty straight forward..and beautiful.
Watch this version from 2 years ago……If anybody had any doubts about the meaning behind this song, watch Scott bring it with emotion and beauty. This gondola version and the Lexington version are my favorites….by far.
Pure and Natural RAW Talent. Scotts voice great, seths also great, but together, F-R-E-A-K-I-N-G Amazing!! Man do I love listening to these guys. Just moved from Raleigh NC and missing these guys, come to Memphis TN.....Please.
I love how he starts smiling soon after they start singing. He knows that it sounds so awesome!!! the bass, the lead and the beat.. so amazing live and on the spot!!!
this makes me happy knowing theres so much bullshit influences around us but there still people who remeber what its all about! and are concious of ourselves.
I may have to check into St. Joseph's as I cannot stop watching this video! Truly awesome, TAB is great, of course, but lovely landscape...life is good!
this is going to be one of my favorite vids of these boys. thanks so much for posting this! they sound so good no matter where they play. can you imagine getting on one of those gondolas and the avett brothers are there to serenade you for the ride??? god, i would die a happy girl. these guys are the best singers/songwriters/performers/musicians this world has had the priviledge to listen too in a looooong time!
I couldn't agree more. It was me, Scott's bride, the video guy and the boys. They played Murder in the City on the way up with extended jam but the cameraman ucked up the tape! My avorite is when Seth uses Scott's tuning pegs as a cymbal at 1:07
What's really astonishing is that this video has over 10,000 views and only 45 ppl bothered to rate this! How can this amazing music performed on a moving Gondola not easily merit 5 stars? Fantastic band. :)
Yea its so good! I wonder if he is talking about his sister's baby or his daughter that was born recently... i lovvvve this song no matter who he is talking about!
This is ridiculously outstanding! Who records a tune in a gondola ride?? These dudes are american music... no doubt... I love when the big beard cat plays the other dudes Martin as "cymbals" at 1:07..... Avett Bros... top notch,.. TOP NOTCH!
Real music. I sense everything from the Grateful Dead to the Black Crowes to KOL in their music - such a great, unique sound. Can't wait to see these guys in person.
@cp911s Thank you!! Actually, I was wrong..I listen to a podcast called Celt in a twist..and they actually play a song by them called Ten Thousand Words and the moment I heard that song I loved it. Then I found this song. So I will def. check out the rest of their music..
I always (I've watched video a lot) imagine being there on that path and looking over to see the playing. Like, "Hey that's one of my favorite bands playing in that gondola!" I know people were there to see them play anyways, but I would've peed my pants. I had a ticket to see them earlier this year and I missed the show. So, so sad; come back to Edgefield!
Just a fantastic band. I was at their small concert in Munich, Germany on 08-16-2011. Did anyone film at that particular one. I'd love to see clips from it. There was only one on You Tube - bad quality.
One of the best Avett bro videos out there.

A masterpiece ❤

God has touched this whole thing beginning to end. See you in Duluth GA
Seths harmonies on this are exceptional...love the up tempo version of the song
Best video ever? Yes.
i love that Bob shoved his great big ol' bass into the gondola
I don't always wear sunglasses, but when I do, I play beautiful music in a gondola.
people walking by have no clue that the coolest band ever is just right there in the gondola. They are so awesome!!!
I love how he starts smiling soon after they start singing. He knows that it sounds so awesome!!! the bass, the lead and the beat.. so amazing live and on the spot!!!
Yes. I'm from NE TN and have lived in Central Carolina for 15 yes. You guys are so amazing.
Heeey Jody
what an incredible video. The beauty of their music coupled with that of the passing Rockies is just spectacular.
i can't stop watching this!
I was born at St. Joseph's! Love being from Western North Carolina
+jsm242 I was born at St. Joseph's ... but not there, too bad for me ! I was born in Minnesota. :)

How could anyone dislike this version!? So good!
"It's not where I am. It's who I'm with...."

"To understand why we were blessed" well people from NC are blessed thats why!!!!!

so inspiring, so genuine and so raw!...nothing better than to see fans of music sitting right where they want to be...creating it together!!..
I will NEVER get tired of listening or watching this
i always come back for more.
this makes me happy knowing theres so much bullshit influences around us but there still people who remeber what its all about! and are concious of ourselves.
HOW CAN ANYONE DISLIKE THIS?!?!??! CRAZY PPL. JUST CRAZZZZZZZZZZZZYYYY
I will always look back and tell people "this was my first exposure to The Avett Brothers" and I became an instant fan!!
Kudos to Bob, I think he has the toughest job cramming into that gondola
Hands down the best video on CZcams.
Still slapping in 20201
I watch this video 5 times a week.
it just doesn't get any better than the avett bros.
I may have to check into St. Joseph's as I cannot stop watching this video! Truly awesome, TAB is great, of course, but lovely landscape...life is good!
i love the way they say chi-ld and wi-ld. fuck, i love everything they do.

my life would be incomplete without the brothers.
I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THIS SONG
Jackson Hole and the Avett Brothers... two of my favorite things.
This is my kind of music
Year after I first came across this video it's still the coolest thing ever
Very nice.... the J-Hole gondola brings me home, even better with the Avett Bros!
I love Jackson Hole. Its my favorite place to visit in the whole world.
Awesome song!!! I can watch this for weeks at a time.
I couldn't agree more. It was me, Scott's bride, the video guy and the boys. They played Murder in the City on the way up with extended jam but the cameraman ucked up the tape! My avorite is when Seth uses Scott's tuning pegs as a cymbal at 1:07
These guys are having way too much fun. One of my favorite songs.
june 20th....@ The Newport in Columbus Ohio....can't wait
how could anyone dislike this. I wish i could be like one of these guys but, "I give up on trying."
What's really astonishing is that this video has over 10,000 views and only 45 ppl bothered to rate this! How can this amazing music performed on a moving Gondola not easily merit 5 stars?
Fantastic band. :)
It's not where I am, it's who I'm with!
Just absolutely spectacular. I love these guys. They are so natural!
that mans beard is phenomenal. well done.
I don't understand how every song and every video can always be so damn good! They are amazing!

This makes me feel so good inside. I get totally relaxed
best band ever!
the Avett brothers are what i love about music.
Good song! Cool setting!
You guys inspire me to grow a beard. Thank you.

Yea its so good! I wonder if he is talking about his sister's baby or his daughter that was born recently... i lovvvve this song no matter who he is talking about!
I've seen a great many videos of them now, and this is by far my favorite...
Fuck I can't go to bed. This video keeps telling me to watch it over and over again.

I bought tickets to that concert yesterday! I can't wait

Very cool. I like how open the window is so you can see the pretty moving scenery behind!
This is great! Smiled the whole way through. I love these guys.
Gorgeous.
They make my heart sink.
this is amazing!!!!
no one has any idea how great it is that i have discovered these guys.
i hope i make it to dallas in january to see them!!!!
This is like the most perfect setting ever.
This is ridiculously outstanding! Who records a tune in a gondola ride??
These dudes are american music... no doubt...
I love when the big beard cat plays the other dudes Martin as "cymbals" at 1:07.....
Avett Bros... top notch,.. TOP NOTCH!

its funny how about a year ago i only listened to rock... now im a folk man.
Fantastic!
How in the hell does this NOT yet have 1/2 million views?
That was such an amazing music festival!
i can't watch an avett bro video in public because i know half the time i'll start crying...seriouslly
Damm....that was good!
so awesome!!!!
Avett Brothers inspired me to pick up music and write songs worth singing...just as they do for everyone else.
Beautiful .. just beautiful!
Awesome upon awesome.
very well contra bass playing ! love this version
Love these men sooooo much.. Raw talent;)
Love it...

good song, and i've been in that gondola
culture! jackson represent
I think too many ppl strive to be these guys and no one can match what they do. Americana at its best
Thank you for this video. It gets me every time.
Just a fantastic band.
I was at their small concert in Munich, Germany on 08-16-2011. Did anyone film at that particular one. I'd love to see clips from it. There was only one on You Tube - bad quality.
man, this video is way too cool, nothing like the avett bros
I love the cowboy shadow on the window
this is bloody amazing!
ahhh i love the avett brothers :)
Beautiful song!
soulful, blissful, magic!
that should just straight up be a music video!!!
Love the way Seth sings in this.
that was sweet, love the capo shift in the middle
