..its one of those 'lifetime achievement' songs, he can be very proud of it...

I just saw him in Toronto. This song has never been performed more beautifully. He made them turn the lights waaaaayy down, "like second dynasty Egypt". He has us all mesmerized. I cried immensely. It was too beautiful. What a song.

The realization on that last line... "He hoped that she'd forget that question." Hurts so good.

this song makes me happy to be me. Is it popular? No. Is it upbeat? No. Is it illuminating? At best indirectly for those willing to investigate. But is it awesome? Yes! And only you and I, + the other fans know that. That makes us unique. Love you guys. :)

Among the finest singer/songwriters I've ever witnessed, and I've seen a lot! Stunning performance and song!

[@earthtrotterjones7835]

this is my new favorite song, a masterpiece in my opinion. It is fantastic live based on this video but the puppet video they made was incredible as well.

[@rorymayes2465]

Brilliant

The moment where he smiles takes my breath away. 03.37

I always liked this song until I heard him play it live earlier this year... then I loved it.

Josh makes me happy

[@HebertoTLara]

Beautiful song!!

Something made me search for this video today. I was at that concert and the timing of the gulls call at 3:28 was perfect. It was a lot louder at the gig than it sounds here and was the reason for the smiling after.

[@earthtrotterjones7835]

Esta es una de las mejores canciones jamás escritas. No estaría mal algo de Josh Ritter en La Mosca.

[@javisegoviamadrigal5403]

Comparto tu oponión! Es una obra maestra! la "Change of time" es otra maravilla. Uno de los grandes!

[@VO1D33]

[@vautrain]

Awesome! We need you to visit Chicago soon, please!

[@chriskur9864]

Just saw his concert in San Diego last weekend. Was hoping he was going to do this song, but didn't. Amazing performance, though. Loved "Getting ready to get down", "Seeing me 'round" and "Homecoming".

Families form iowa... upper West Siders A minor line in a great song, but a fantastic line.

[@carsonkent]
