I love this song so much. And I adore Maddy, her voice has been with me from an early age when my dad played his old LPs in our living room.

Very nice. This tune was collected about 5 miles from where I live.

I watched this on telly...!

[@lovingsingleton]

I don’t understand the lyric. “I’ll make you believe you’re a latter and I’m an angel above you all”?

[@cullanpadroclum]

"believe at your latter end"...it's a pull from the book of Job and Deteronomy, which both reference belief reaching the latter end. Basically "I'll make you believe at your death." Kid Jesus threatened to kill them for not believing. Kid Jesus was a major dick
