Andrew Bird's "Danse Caribe" on BLUEGRASS UNDERGROUND (PBS)

[@LarkaWolffy]

He just looks so ridiculously happy in this show that I'm grinning like an idiot in front of the monitor while my mom is looking at me like I went nuts

[@RUBENS9645]

man this song is one of the most unique sonds i've ever heard, its fantastic

[@ChrisPedone]

I was immediately addicted to this song when I first heard it

[@drsteele4749]

It's remarkable these days to see a musician carry the tune at a proper distance from the microphone. I was impressed by the band's ability to stay within themselves. This performance was far and away the standout of the evening.

[@scottdavis8371]

The feeling from everyone in this performance is astounding I come here every time I need a pick me up

[@susanwiddersheim5655]

Thank you PBS for introducing me to Andrew Bird--a haunting, magical performance.

Mysterious Production Of eggs is the best

[@joondaluparts]

Tift is having herself an Enchanted Moment. Can't blame her 😊🤩

[@Trunkswr]

Blankets the heart and salinates the face it’s forever gold.

[@christinamallory6336]

Andrew Bird is AMAZING!

[@ppound12]

Wow.. one of my favorite performances of this song. Is it weird to have a huge smile.. and tears in my eyes at the same time. Extraordinary. Just absolute beauty.

[@timothylee6859]

Thanks of the post, i saw this on pbs (i hatetv) when i was feeling especially blue and it help me tremendously. How much, you ask? i'm still here to hear it again. That plenty.

[@carole1763]

He's awesome...perfect in every way

[@chelfrich1990]

Just saw this on PBS. It gave me chills, made me nauseous and brought tears to my eyes.

[@equin0xia]

i recommend avoiding anything that makes you nauseous.

[@GuadalupePicasso]

Nauseous?

[@chelfrich1990]

😆 I don't think that's what I meant to type but it was 7 years ago so who knows... Upon rewatching, I have to say it still moves me (minus the nausea) and I'd love to see a concert in that cavern.

[@ed6810]

If this isn't the most joyous performance of a song ever, then I don't know what is!

[@Crownshorts]

What a strange little man... Love it!!!

[@LilColDog]

This has got to be one of the finest performances ever. Oh to have been there....Thank you Andrew " Bird". Tweet tweet:)

[@27shua27]

That venue looks amazing.

[@CrustyWhiteBread]

This is lol amazing. Can't do anything but chuckle in amazement. A+ Tift Merritt.

[@jasonalbert5862]

Cumberland Caverns is huge. We've been through there a couple times and keep finding new stuff everytime we go. If your ever down there plan a day to spend in the caves, well worth it.

[@amerie1987]

Forever thankful to 'the good wife' for introducing Andrew Bird into my music life.

[@tinacastanares8046]

good grief, so amazing.

Muy linda musica andrew bird... Un saludo desde argentina" 🇦🇷

[@calhuck]

I need this joy everyday.

[@nicoleballivian]

Andrew Bird is the best in the East and the West!

[@williewaycup1858]

Beautiful. This song means something different to most people, its one of my favorite songs with few lines, and I have elicited, no ive forced friends to give me their interpretations. Theyve all been different yet the one thing everyone agrees on is theynlove the song and whatever it means to them.

[@lacorchea955]

Drives me craaaaaaazy (good crazy)

[@varzaruvalentin8358]

Love it!

[@yuk0ncornelius]

3:10: kick + lick. My god has he got some chops on that thing.

[@f.4650]

[@tHYRR3N]

Incredible!

[@MarlenaCarrillo]

Love....

[@elizabethtowle7331]

Too many notes. 😂😂😂 Kidding. This is just brilliant!

[@robertdizon2801]

I question all thirteen naysayers on this thread, could you, would you, in all your days ever produce such exquisite sounds as this, why in all eternity do you bother down thumbing such a one of a kind performance, do you honesty believe it could have been done better... ?

[@equin0xia]

why are fixated on it? you might actually be able to enjoy the music. you'd probably live longer, too.

[@yuk0ncornelius]

Andrew Bird....and Chris Thile. That needs to happen.

[@nicoribbloid]

and then it did happen ;P

[@rustyproof]

Is that Tift Merritt on guitar?

[@johnbates1795]

yes

[@kemmayr]

Yes,she's a very good singer herself 😊

[@sebastianortiz8083]

Thanks. I kept on asking myself who is SHE

[@loo6f]

Bird's your the best

[@SteadyRedHead]

Who would down vote something like this?

[@gumwap1]

Trolls

[@equin0xia]

why do you let it bother you? why is it that every song on youtube has a bunch of these "who votes this down?" posts from people who seemingly make it their life's work to obsess over them?

[@carmeldunne7774]

wow

[@GuadalupePicasso]

Tift Merritt is such a genuinely beautiful woman❤

[@cliffkearns722]

It Makes you long for the Highlands Yo

[@Aaron628318]

Find yourself someone who looks at you like...

[@mozzer35]

Are the four thumbs down just ignorance?

[@twinlakestheband]

Great video! If ya get a moment you should check out one of ours! Hope you like it!

[@paulsullivanable]

That girl guitar player acts like his mommy. She really takes away from the performance

[@rjlarance6012]

Musicians pay close attention to the leader/director. I'd be grinning a skunk eating shit too if I were in that ensemble. She is spot on in all respects.

[@dan1son]

+paulsullivanable You know she's 2 years younger than he is?

[@paulsullivanable]

+dan1son nope. dont care either. she is spotting him

[@katelynpatterson2407]

+paulsullivanable It's very common, if not good practice, to always watch your lead when you are singing harmony. Take a look at Patty Loveless and Vince Gill at George Jones' service at the Opry. His bass sings harmony with him on this piece every time, she doesn't. Hence her being a professional and ensuring that she's moving with Bird during the harmony. It's not politics or pettiness, it's just being a damn good harmony singer.

[@paulsullivanable]

fine. she still hurts the performance. in the way that a kindergarten teacher would coach students. it's unbecoming of a professional like him.
