I LOVE The Avett Brothers with all my heart and soul. This is a rendition, I would imagine, George would be proud of. I could watch this on repeat forever.

[@avishmaharaj5941]

We need music like this more than ever in a time of suffering.

[@nitinnirvana]

Every time I listen to this song I miss George more than ever 💖

[@angelahicks2976]

My heart was breaking the night this aired. It DID give me hope and still does. LOVE IT!!!

[@nunyabeezwax7576]

Seriously?? Do you LIKE war?? Our Country is in shambles. Please get some morals

[@JamesKovacic]

We need songs like this now more than ever before

[@Shambar18]

Listen to all of George’s songs. There’s a message in all of them

[@JamesBee01]

My heart was broken that night too, This performance moves me every time I watch.

[@user-sd4fp4cu7u]

Perfect cover of a great George Harrison song. It was amazing.

[@sandyschmitz6662]

What a great version of this classic. They nailed it!!!!

[@mattc3385]

They did the song justice. They sang it like they meant it and it was powerful.

[@davecarl77]

[@kyotocoversjimanderson782]

What an original and brilliant cover!

[@sherwoodcooper7075]

WOW! SING THIS THROUGHOUT OUR TORTURED LAND...BRING IT!!!

[@charlie-obrien]

I just bought a slide for my guitar and went looking for this song that I haven't heard on the radio for quite a long time and I am so happy to find the Avett Brothers version here. It is just wonderful. They played it in such a simple and melodic way that honors the song and the man who wrote it. A song that asks for all that we really need. I don't know if I've ever heard a better version that wasn't done by George himself. Now back to my slide lesson.

[@wisenheimer9997]

They played it on 1/20/2017... the night dickhead became President...

[@joelt00]

We need an Avett cover album

[@irismccarthy2540]

Ummm yes please

[@hyrumnephi]

goosebumps everywhere!

[@stringman509]

Well done too all loved it Colin 👏 🇬🇧 xx

[@danaert3388]

This performance on Inauguration Day 2017 was a real gift to many of us who were hurting.

[@spencertherren6806]

How you feeling now. Joe Biden and his socialist friends are destroying this country.

[@Oneofthechose]

So was @Langhorne Slim’s #NeverBreak if you ain’t heard it- he wrote it that night Love is the key

[@nunyabeezwax7576]

You are kidding right? Do you LIKE war?? Our Country is in SHAMBLES. And Biden is an actual pedophile. Get some morals. Did the mean Tweets offend you? You all good with the gas prices and inflation?

[@superorangeish]

Lotta love went into this!!!

[@johnfuchs7021]

This song is such an open prayer. Just take my burdens lord. Give me peace.

[@celiasoares6547]

Música maravilhosa.

[@SusanM_1]

[@Oneofthechose]

Love is the key

[@rbrazil1000]

Unfortunately the audio is not synced up with the video. Great song though.

[@petethegreat0195]

Writer and singer, and do you have like a social media or something?

[@petethegreat0195]

Hey, I’m Peter, I’m a huge Avett Brothers fan! I’m also a musician

[@bobbyserrato1949]

Isn't that Jeff Lynn's cousin on bass

[@willsaenz6320]

Decency won exactly 4 years after this moment.

[@audreycumby1075]

Yes

[@jethronh]

is the audio out of sync?

[@irismccarthy2540]

It looks like it is, I’m sorry about that.

[@Bobstern]

most definitely.

[@Tamjam2011]

That’s ok, we’re very fortunate to have clean audio of this beautiful rendition of GH classic. Thank you for taking the time to post this! 👍🏼💫❤️❤️❤️

[@diegoruiz7600]

nope they're just not playing their instruments live* because that's not ok with the producers. which sucks for musicians to see

[@KevinDanielMusic]

Thanks for uploading! If you have a second, I uploaded a cover of Jason Isbell. As a fellow music fan, I'd love if you'd check it out. It's on my page. Hope you like it!

[@LB-sk3vl]

Avett 👍Colbert 👎

[@sammmy4495]

Colbert is such a creep....great band though

[@charlemagnebrown]

Ironic that this played on a show that perpetuates division in America.

[@magodeluz8886]

It's not good at all!
