@Peter Ponomarenko how do you know she is lip-synching?

[@frogman1]

​@Peter Ponomarenko i doubt she's lip synching in this one. you can hear her voice on the mic at the beginning and at the end of the take, as well as her voice fading when she gets further from the mic. also, this is josh turner's channel, where every video i've seen has been a live recording. microphone quality and post processing these days are really good, so i understand why it seems like it must've been recorded in a studio.

[@frogman1]

@Peter Ponomarenko yep, it's possible the video is slightly off. with productions like this the sound and video usually has to be manually aligned by the video editor, so that's likely the margin of human error you're noticing.

[@keithstarkey5584]

In all the hubbub of this and that voice, there comes along someone who, in song, pretty much tells everyone to take a seat: "we're going to talk business here," and commences to tell it as it should be told. Allison does just that. She reminds singers everywhere, in all of their work, not to forget the essence of singing: be true to your soul, be down to earth, and always season your offering for the best flavor possible.

So thankful I stumbled upon this recording. Thanks you guys for giving something beautiful to this old codger.

An Awesome tribute to Little Willie John song " Fever " . I am glad that so many of the youth of today are finding and bringing back to life the music of yesteryear. Even though this music was before my time, I heard this song on Vinyl when visiting one of my grandmothers back in the southern part of the United States. Sometimes the old man would sing to the old lady saying I got the fever and she would giggle and say the boys are here dirty old man. One of my two grandfathers would sometimes take my little brother and myself to little shanties to listen to home style music made with old wine jugs and wash boards, along with wind and string instruments. My grand parents are truly missed after all these years. May this music live on for all to ear in their own good time.

I keep coming back to watch and listen again to this gem from Josh and Allison. It's not just very, very good, it's a... struggling for the words... virtuoso interpretation. I focus back and forth between Josh's superb guitar dynamics to the sound and feel of Allison's voice - and equally, to those little gestures with her hands, her expression and her whole body as she brings the lyrics to life. Between them, the magic is born and, above all, the charm and humour of a great song. Bravo!

[@HareDeLune]

Your comment has inspired me to say: We are in a new era, where masterpieces such as this are not commercially released for the masses, but instead captured and released by the artists themselves for posterity. Perhaps unknowingly, when watching videos such as this, we are witnessing history in the making. While in the past, there has been very limited or no video footage of the artists who have made treasured works of music, now video is the norm. Mastertapes of past works of musical art have often been archived in warehouses by big studios. Sometimes poorly, as we saw last year when one of them caught fire and many treasures were lost to us forever, excepting for inferior copies. Here's hoping that Josh and Allison are able to preserve and keep these precious videos for future generations to be astounded by as we are.

[@downtoearth5108]
