Avi Kaplan - Chains (Alt Version Vinyl Spin)

[@ambvurt3739]

A voice that will go down in history as one of the most pleasant noises ever, the cello man is beautiful.

[@taliamusk433]

noises.... wtf that sounds so negative. holy cow

[@ambvurt3739]

@@taliamusk433 because not only is it one of if not the most pleasant voices ever (because Avi surpasses humanity) but it is more pleasant than almost any instrument I know.

[@taliamusk433]

@@ambvurt3739 Still sounds negative. So keep up the good work of throwing negative comments out there

I genuinely love the 'folk' sound of Avi's recent music. it's so smooth, relaxing, beautiful, listenable, and well constructed. So pleased this exists!

[@nancysoukup6545]

I agree with you 100%

[@serenelysavage]

Just heard this on "The Blacklist". I jumped out of my skin, I was so excited! People were like, "What?" and I yelled, "That's Avi!"

[@Walter_Nicolas]

Hello pretty 💕

[@RedSeabird96]

Wait, no way, they used this song on Blacklist??? Oh I need to rewatch it now! Just to find Avi's song. Lol

[@seeker9709]

I find I love the Alt versions of Avi's sings even more than the originals. They just seem so smooth and melodic, and this one is no exception!

[@fedorakliwadenko1204]

Maravilloso! !!GRACIAS

[@madisonallen1897]

Alt?

[@saraj.7743]

I feel as though if the earth had a voice, it would be much that of Avi’s. There is soul, raw tranquility, and power all woven throughout every word. He is like a meadow hidden in the vast wilderness- brightened in soft moonlit haze, shrouded in fog. A place for all the loners and wanderers to come find solace and rest. A place for those of us to feel true unity. A sense of home to dwell as long as we wait to listen, long enough to become fully immersed in all that it may come to offer our spirit. May his song revive the earth and all whom wholly love her beauty.

[@bleehh]

Reading this with the music in the background felt like watching a down feather glide through the air softly. Absolutely beautiful...

[@gynnethroso623]

Sara J. That is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing with such heart feeling eloquence. And I completely agree with you. 🥰

[@vbella39]

Absolutely, peace 🤗💕

[@TC-bh3bi]

Your words are very poetic! You should be writing, and publishing, your words. They touch me almost as deeply as Avi's voice. Thank you for sharing them.

[@joanjohnsen7603]

Written better than I ever could.

[@brandonnott3695]

Getting to take my daughters to see you live for their first concert right before the first signs of pandemic and lockdown will forever be one of my fondest memories, you took us away from the fear that was beginning to grip the world for an evening and I can't wait for the live shows to come back so people can experience your music and the healing, peace, and joy that it brings. Thank you Avi, for doing what you do.

[@RosheenQuynh]

Couldn't agree more

[@jolin9179]

Beautiful comment!

[@simplyfantastic58]

Avi was my last concert before the pandemic. It was gorgeous.

[@sjcsouza38]

I admire the way Mr. Kaplan's Voice resonates in the deepest chords of my memories and feelings. Again, Well Done! Thanks for existing, Avi, and for being faithful to Your Being!

[@kerithwooldridge]

My mind's a haze With all this pain And I can't change a thing Lost in this maze I can't find the way I can't break my spirit free All of these chains Weighing down on me Weighing down All of these chains Weighing down on me Weighing down Yeah I drift away To a brighter place That I close my eyes to see And there's some days I think that things will change But I'm losing my belief All of these chains Weighing down on me Weighing down All of these chains Weighing down on me Weighing down I'm down on my knees I need some relief Some quiet and peace I've been here before Tethered and torn I won't take anymore All of these chains Weighing down on me Weighing down All of these chains Weighing down on me Weighing down All of these chains Weighing down on me Weighing down All of these chains Weighing down on me Weighing down

[@joshl5003]

He has the most relaxing and soothing voice I have heard in a very long time

[@ShaeAmethyst]

I was just watching Blacklist and heard this song in season 8 and immediately thought this sounds so much like Avi and it turned out to be your song🥰🥰I love your voice Avi Kaplan💯🥰🥰❤❤

[@debhouckscraftycottage]

[@deanb6489]

Simply amazing, flawless. A voice that will be remembered for decades to come. SOMEONE GET THIS MAN A GRAMMY!!!

[@chrissynovful]

I may be projecting but when I listen to Avi sing I get the feeling that he is the type of person who hears someone who is talking about how they are feeling when they feel like they are in the darkest place they could be. Like he hears them, not only their words, but all of the unspoken words as well. That is why I love his music so much. Just...hauntingly beautiful poetry.

[@vbella39]

That is exactly how I felt when I first heard his song Quarter Past 4. I was in a very bad time in my life and he literally pulled me up and out of the depression with that song. I can never thank him enough for the hope and beauty he gives to our world.

[@ekaterinamarinova1851]

Avi's voice takes my soul and spirit to a never-ending journey. So flawless and smooth his voice is. Somehow, the alternative versions of some of his songs (of ALL his songs) sound better than the originals. That confident and brave to experiment with his voice and music mastery he is. And that humble, to walk an extra mile, as a creator, and de-compose and build his songs again.

[@melinda6024]

I am so amazed how much different and richer Avi sounds on vinyl ! we need to popularize this more and more..............Avi,you get better each year,a living miracle !

[@deannajohnson85]

I just heard this song at the end of Blacklist! I got so excited when I realized it was Avi, I had to go back later and watch the final scenes of the show to see how it ended.

There is a timber in Avis voice that hits me the same way that Paco Robannes, 'Million' does. ... Just mmmmmm!

Until a few weeks ago, I had no idea who was Avi Kaplan. Today, I discover with pleasure the universe of this atypical singer. Very nice discovery and excellent continuation, Mr Kaplan.
