First Time Hearing Mumford & Sons - “I Will Wait” Reaction | Asia and BJ

[@bar5radass]

Live Grammy performance really gives you a picture of their energy.

[@scapito]

💯

[@seventhskin1]

These guys are true musicians and songwriters with a long list of great songs. If you choose to take this road, you'll also be led to a long list of other great musicians in this sort of genre of their own. You could have a great experience and have reaction material for years because bands like these have a gigantic fan base. Enjoy!

[@metalmark1214]

This song finds Marcus Mumford singing about the challenges of maintaining a relationship amidst the conflicts of life on the road.

[@brendaschmitt2281]

The more I hear this song, the stronger the spiritual/religious vibe I get. I think the "I fell heavy into your arms" line always plants the idea this is about a romantic relationship, but if you imagine he's speaking to God you get a whole other meaning.

[@carrielaliberte3255]

Ha, you spoke to me. I was able to equate a relationship….. yet it just seemed to me that he was talking to God. Either way it was fun ❤

[@SLOCLMBR]

My wife and I had a friend who passed in a car accident on his way to work; shortly before his wedding to the mother of his three children. Not sure why, but I haven't heard this the same since. We all miss you Greg

[@Beatles4Sale.]

What a great comment from you! Yes, they cross so many genre’s. Perhaps that was one reason they became so popular. This song came from the album Babel. It is one of the greatest ever made. It has so many great songs. Yes, they write their own songs.

[@paulkearney5540]

Live at red rocks is 🔥🔥🔥

[@troys6965]

Exactly. Was hoping Asia & BJ had selected it.

[@scapito]

That was the version that was requested, but they have to be choosey about what videos they show. 😔

[@quintondees4501]

Love this one!!!!👍👍👍👏👏👏Don't you just love and respect talent like this??? I do!! No matter the type of music, talent is talent

[@joaniewaller6504]

Irish band, blue grass came from the Irish immigrants to this country. This was a great band you should listen to "the Cave" from them. Very good song. Another great band is the Lumineers, "Stubborn love"

[@Emilaria]

They have so many amazing songs. I recommend Dustbowl Dance, Delta, Thistle and Weeds, and White Blank Page. Try to watch live performances if possible. Their energy and connection with the crowds is fantastic.

[@johnthegreek5836]

Love this group, their songs are awesome

[@LegionofComics]

Would have loved to see y'all's reaction to their Red Rocks performance of this song. The energy in that video comes right out the screen. It's amazing.

[@TheSuppressFurry]

Incredible band...I was legit addicted to this album for years. Everything just works together so well, amazing instrumentals and vocals.

[@troyhagen9843]

Fantastic song from the start but when they bring in the horns at the 5:25 mark it takes it to another level. Genius.

[@classicrocklady6288]

Have to see a live performance to see them playing the I sturments and the energy they give! (This was the original)

[@twoofsix3b3g]

Absolutely agree!!

[@scapito]

This has a religious sentiment as well, surrendering to the Lord. Another band that was much better live than studio. Had great success, won Grammy awards... this song won Best Rock Song. They crossed a lot of genres with their music. Unfortunately the band broke up. 😔 Loved hearing Asia sing the chorus... I could see her doing a cover in her style. Hope you enjoyed it. Also, loved BJs interpretation. Best song writers create lyrics that can be applied to many situations and experiences. Below is a link their Red Rock performance of you're curious. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6LCnpurhcamhKs

[@11shellnutt11]

I always thought of it as a religious song. Love it.

[@raider52cg]

They arents broken up. Just lost 1 member, Winston the banjo player. The others mates are already working on a new album.

[@scapito]

@@raider52cg great news, thanks!

[@jeanstrickland2445]

Love the banjo in this song 😊

[@coletroutman1060]

This was my first actual band, inspired me to learn guitar.. always got a place for them

[@meshbis]

"I Will Wait" is a Mumford & Sons song. They write all their songs with no outside co-writers. You guys should do reaction to their actual videos of their songs instead of just a lyrics video. Also, do check out Marcus Mumford(Mumford & Sons lead singer) solo album which released September 16, 2022.

[@RoofingTime]

Listen to the Live at Red Rocks version

[@Jackofpastorious]

Check out the Lumineers. Folky sound. Ophelia, cleopatra,sleep on the floor, and Angela are 4 solid tunes.

[@browntabproductions]

A wonderful UK Band heavily influenced by the American Group Old Crow Medicine Show, whom I highly recommend if’n you want a little Old Time String Band sound. 😊

[@scapito]

Good recommendation.

[@unintelligentlifeform7180]

Their big breakout song was probably "little lion man". Another band that is similar...But very much folk rock-ish and better in my opinion is Old Crow Medicine Show. Old Crow Medicine Show has a wide variety of song topics and have such am great sound.

[@carahinton]

An amazing song by them is Believe. It’s a different vibe too.

[@vhonn95]

You should try little lion man next

[@coopm3087]

this band is great another band that's kinda similar is Lumineers 3 really good songs are Big parade, Stubborn love and Flowers in her hair loving all your reactions guys and hope your son is feeling better

[@jennyjenny4501]

The live version at Red Rocks is much better

[@sealdrup]

You guys need to check it out.

[@jennyjenny4501]

@@sealdrup I was there!

[@scapito]

That was the version that was requested, but they can't do it on a live stream.

[@sealdrup]

@@scapito For sure...understood.

[@danieljantz913]

Listen to Judah and the lion"suit and jacket" it has a great rock/banjo sound.

[@ameshi4williams465]

White Blank Page is a great song by them

[@albert0F]

Mumford and Sons is for live listening. They got the lords energy, even if we dont believe in it, they got it. 😅

[@kellysteele4311]

Lumineers ho hey and Ophelia are some good ones too

[@michelleydenisey4697]

I don’t know much about them but love this song

[@xl-origins]

I LOVE when people react to music that isn't as "mainstream"!!!!

[@krowbar2009]

Wow awesome reaction and it's amazing... it's still the reaction with the most hits to this day.

[@scifimonkey3]

For a more rocky side to them but the same great song writing check out ‘Tompkins Square Park’

[@elizabethdemerie13]

Love Mumford and Sons it is Irish folk lol beautiful ♥️

[@PbThunder]

They're from London, nothing Irish about them.

[@elizabethdemerie13]

@PbThunder lol I always thought they were....thank you for the info.....still love their folk style music

[@willsmith9083]

You should definitely check out Hopeless Wanderer by Mumford and Son's, the official video is hilarious too!!

[@twoofsix3b3g]

Oh I just love the Red Rocks live version... It is electric with the crowd there

[@jennibair5298]

The banjo…❤

[@kellysteele4311]

Very cool tune

[@elizabethdemerie13]

Asia you should do a cover of this song in your gorgeous style....it would be a hit!!!!! Also check out little lion man it is a great song by them

[@scapito]

💯

[@jennaowens6008]

You should check out Little Talks by Of Monsters and Men!!!

[@trumphatesyou]

What the f! I was gonna say that

[@kinjiru731]

This is a really catchy song.

[@janetjackson2085]

And it symbolises pain. Hell wait in the dust on his knee meaning he’s in pain and he’s reaching out to someone he’s already got or had

[@anthonypikos3294]

Check out the Ted lasso soundtrack, Mumford did some good ones for that.

[@poipu425]

americana music...i know they aren't actually americans but this is the genre this falls in...iron and wine, gregory isakov, jason isbell, brandi carlile, mandoline orange...and many more are classified in this group...incredible singer songwriters, mostly acoustic.

[@janebeard3411]

I would recommend Jake Bugg. He is amazing.

[@kellystevens5681]

Thiis song is about Marcus Mumford's wife, actress Carey Mulligan and waiting for her. The two were childhood pen pals and it was only after they both found success in their respective fields that they got in touch with each other again as adults. Marcus and Carey began sending each other letters through their churches when they were kids. After becoming friends again things got more serious in early 2011 and they two became romantically involved and married after a nine-month engagement. Through the years of having fallen out of touch, Marcus kept his hope up that they would meet again. Even through being distanced during their engagement/relationship and having conflicting schedule (Marcus having a busy recording/tour schedule and Carey having a busy filming schedule), they waited for one another and never gave up on the love they have for one another.

[@creative_terror9435]

You would appreciate the music videos much more,love mumford and sons!

[@dimedraweriv258]

Meant to be seen live

[@scapito]

💯

[@jimlerswe2391]

you should see the live red rock one!

[@11shellnutt11]

You should react to The Devil Makes Three All Hail or any other one. Lot like this song.

[@pinklightning1690]

please listen to babel, tompkins square park, and hopeless wanderer.

[@janetjackson2085]

Please react to more. Much love from the uk ❤️

[@konda-tv]

❤️

[@jennibair5298]

No. It’s about a guy who messed up. He’ll wait for her.

[@peterfromgermany2431]

I will wait for you😢

[@jerickson725]

👍

[@vhonn95]

To me this song is about his infidelity and saying he will wait for her to heal....just my perception

[@loadedorygun]

Right, kneeling and knowing his ground and saying he won’t forget she forgave.

[@scottvanhille5688]

Oh goody a song they played inside CVS on their playlist haha.

[@myballzyurchin]

This guy was Friend Zoned HARD!

[@edwinmachado7964]

👏

[@timmcgrath9708]

Why do lyric videos always show the lyrics almost behind the actual singer singing the lyrics????????????

[@James-wv3pl]

Better than Ezra good

[@JOELY79]

Great band until they went woke n sacked the banjo not sure where they are now seen them live a few times v good

[@guitarattempter71]

Great song - too bad the band went fascist and kicked out the banjo player for daring to not be a leftist.

[@carolmillins9199]

The usual champagne socialists

[@saintdon4461]

He left on his own. They had his back, but he said he didn't want to hurt them by voicing his opinions that all the sensitive babies don't want to hear.

[@SIXX2772]

Boring a@# song lol..but anyway good reaction guys.
