Lyrics below:
It's empty in the valley of your heart
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears
And all the faults you've left behind
The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
But I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat
But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again
'Cause I have other things to fill my time
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
Now let me at the truth
Which will refresh my broken mind
So tie me to a post and block my ears
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
I know my call despite my faults
And despite my growing fears
But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again
So come out of your cave walking on your hands
And see the world hanging upside down
You can understand dependence
When you know the maker's hand
So make your siren's call
And sing all you want
I will not hear what you have to say
'Cause I need freedom now
And I need to know how
To live my life as it's meant to be
And I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

Just imagine being at this concert... the energy, the electricity!!

[@dragonlordx25]

Damn this crowd is amazing

[@LewisGilbertFilms]

I was at Lewes for this stopover, best gig of my life. The crowd was electric!

[@dragonlordx25]

Lewis Gilbert So jealous of you!! Need to see them live!

[@deanlowdon8381]

Lewis Gilbert Was there too, best thing I have ever been to. Vampire Weekend were excellent the night before as well.

[@Tom-cn4cm]

It’s too white though

[@deanlowdon8381]

@@Tom-cn4cm It is a Mumford and Sons concert! 😂

[@biwwi100]

M&S are one of those rare artists that sound better live. Truly amazing performance!

[@Thevideofish85]

Cuz they’re brilliant just the way they are. Don’t need any talent correction in the studio lol

[@richardace4029]

Couldnt agree more. Vocals, intensity, even the instruments were far better.

[@JustMe-mh2pn]

100 % 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍

[@LisaJOxo]

So good! Love them x

[@ClickChase]

Great shop aswell

[@Gngrcpl]

Look at all of those people laughing and singing along together. Not even thinking about what party someone belongs to or what their politics are. Music brings us all together

[@Br0wnb0i]

Wise words

[@anshritsumbli9355]

Here to tell the world that people still have good music choices 🙂

[@1022misha]

... so i watch this nearly everyday

[@AndreAndFriends]

👍👍👍

[@ceigaletti7980]

This is the best version of the crowd participation in the front row

[@Claudiaa00]

Man, I don't know why this made me cry

[@SmarticleMagnet]

I went to a mumford and sons concert Wednesday and am still awestruck how they played with such energy and emotion, even though they've played the same songs over and over. I absolutely love this band

[@samstewart483]

Amazing song, anyone else get goosebumps listening to it?

[@axtapawns5349]

goosebumps all over. this is how a rock concert should be like

[@bobbyspencer1577]

They are still one of the best live shows I’ve ever been to

[@scoundrel1680]

how this only has 1.2m views is beyond me, absolutely perfect performance here.

[@camillabiazzi6721]

dream concert.

[@mand9966]

Being in that crowd that wonderful night what is so special to see in this video is the looks Marcus keeps giving to Ben....like we've made it mate.

[@WarHawk105]

That lady at 2:48 looks like she is having tons of fun.

[@Daniel1908986]

that lady is susan boyle

[@zacdavis9806]

Can we talk for a moment about ted lifting the 7 foot tall upright bass and playing it over his head?

Eejrr

[@jasonstuart3209]

yeah he does it at every concert i believe

[@KittyStarlight]

Yes. We can talk for a moment about that interesting phenomenon. Moment's over. Back to regular life.

[@poooopman69]

@@KittyStarlight Why so cynical?

[@bobloblaw206]

Imagine being in this crowd. I would lose my mind!

[@535wer]

They dont kick ass, they are not heavy metal, but they are just a great great great band with great meaningful lyrics that uplift your life in every way. Thank you mumford and sons for existing and hopefully more and more albums to come.

[@AdamKlownzinger]

I don’t know, I think they can really kick ass at a live concert. They can get really into it. Not always, but sometimes, and when they do, it’s electric

[@jensmoller6999]

​@AdamKlownzinger some songs are electric yes but kick ass is maybe a way a girl would describe it..if. But I love this song..its melodic. It has tremendous uplifting potential. It cures every depressive mood

[@prezcartman-ttv688]

why am I crying wathcing this. My pain just releases when I see this. Its so powerful

[@SharpEdgeStandardOfficial]

Sigh No More… a total masterpiece and one if not thee best record of any genre released in the last 40 years!!!

[@Just-a-Canuck]

“Cause I need freedom now, and I need to know how, to live my life as it’s meant to be.” I’m in the depths of depression, and I needed this line from this song.

[@benwiebe9583]

I hope things are better for you now

[@Just-a-Canuck]

Good days and bad days like everyone else, but I’m in a much better place then when I wrote that comment, thanks brother I appreciate you!

[@OfficialAwkbe]

I'm not sure why, but this song makes me really emotional every time I hear it.

[@netflew]

Goose bumps all over and smiling ear to ear watching this!!! Cannot even begin to talk about how much I love these guys!! Everything they do is just amazing. Im hoping they do it all again next year in Lewes and I cannot wait to be there! Thank you Mumford and Sons!

[@dannymoan5011]

When I put in my headphones and blast this video, it feels just like I’m there. What an incredible performance, energy and production. Unbelievable still all these years later 🔥🤘

[@ZeroSkullee]

A lady in the crowd was crying... Show's how moving Mumford and Son's music really is.

[@abbiewitherington3286]

I wish I could articulate myself enough to explain what it felt like being in that jumping crowd. The crowd became one. Everyone was complete. Nothing will ever compare, I mean Marcus and the boys organised this whole festival by themselves, down to the choice of the beers that was served and even the hog roast bar! Their music and lyrics are timeless.

[@willemehlers9144]

The wave of energy in the crowd at 3:05 is amazing

[@jonahkane7027]

Utterly incredible!

[@MuntzDesigns]

very powerful stuff...not many bands can make a crowd have this much fun...even women cry at 2:55 - wow

[@naomirouhan8522]

The best song in this world nice to dance again

[@oliplatt898]

It was the most awesome crowd mate I know, we jumped as one vast being.

[@bobloblaw206]

I pray these guys continue to make amazing and powerful music... true musical geniuses.

[@cheryltipton9328]

The best when Marcus looks over at Ben and just smiles together .....

[@richardace4029]

The intensity at 3:01 onwards love it.

[@matthewlamos2049]

Seeing Mumford And Sons in concert for the delta tour was one of the greatest concerts ever. They played the cave and rocked key bank center in buffalo!🤟🏻❤️ I’ll always love these guys

[@okTim1987]

I saw them at Excel in Minnesota. They played the same passion, and every similar emotion. Even if they have played this song thousands of times.

[@asterickanderson3343]

Once a magical song , always a magical song.

[@nigeljohnson4880]

Amazing to let yourself go like that. Those three girls in the front row. Fantastic.

[@helloveyes13]

this is one of the best songs ever!

[@mehditate9201]

It's 2023 and the band is no more, if only I knew what I know now, I would have made it to one of their concerts... Unfortunately I will not be able to see them live, this is all I got

[@StefanTheFink]

Incredible how good they sound live...

[@MasterBrain182]

Astonishing! 🥳 Thanks you Mumford and Sons. Thumbs Up from Brazil, yeeeh 👍👍👍

[@fuelmmma]

Such a happy song

[@richardace4029]

The last chorus with the intensified instruments are just impeccable.

[@brennengage3371]

Bangers on bangers love this band

[@mauriciorodriguez5270]

I've seen this song (and many other songs) in many live versions... Red Rocks, Live Sessions, Glastonbury '10 '11 '13. Lollapalooza, Pink pop, etc. and STILL when I watch ANY of them. I get chills, and I am reminded of how badly I want to be a musician. Even tough I'm from mexico, this guys have truly inspired me. So, THANK YOU Mumford and Sons, for making such wonderful music that can be enjoyed by people all around the world. Best fucking wishes in all of your upcoming albums & tours.

[@carolineturner5168]

That was pure joy in that crowd! So cool to watch. I can only imaging what it was like to be there.

[@lomac546]

I wasn't at this one but I was at the Guthrie, OK stopover on the same festival tour (called Gentlemen of the Road- it was like 4 or 5 small towns Mumford chose). We camped in 100 degree heat the night before and It was still one of the best experiences of my life.

[@kathmandoo]

What an excitingly brilliant band. They sure know how to pump an audience.

[@9GLondon]

Thank you, Mumford & Sons!

[@graciejones9480]

Let Winston come back! You will not be the same without him!

[@richardace4029]

They sound incredible live.

[@AlaskanPete]

the dislikers dont know a good song

[@Blueridge1961]

Please M&S come back with music like this. I accept that you have to go your way and to head for your final destination in anything you do, but videos like this one do proove that what you did in the beginning of your carreer was the right thing to do... Just making people happy!!!

[@mel63613]

That banjo just 'makes' it!

[@abbiewitherington3286]

I need beans on toast in my life again, he was pure gold.

[@feliperibeiro4388]

Quem tá ouvindo essa obra prima em 2023 além de min?

[@leebobby8981]

It's always great to see 4 of them sing tgt in the front~

[@sueb4992]

what a wonderful crowd

[@mcsibs]

the rawness left when they went electric, the struggle between the acoustic instruments and the energy they were trying to produce with them was what I loved

[@Oh_I_Will]

They had to...they were re-writing the same songs over and over again. Same tired formula....song starts off slow, some where in the middle section there is a spot where the entire band plays at lightning speeds...then slowly morphs back to the way it started. They’ve got to mature and write more complex music...

[@weezmister]

Ur music is so full of life. Its refreshing. Truly talented musicians

[@1022misha]

i'm going to cry, so beautiful

[@seanoreilly8542]

No one rocks out harder on a banjo than Winston Marshall.

[@llgrannis]

This is such an amazing song and Marcus Mumford is an amazing person who went through what I did as a child. I would always follow them for merit and history.

[@goprojoe7449]

I love my people so much.

[@david8_0]

Seeing all these happy ppl gives me goosebumps 💓 💙 be good to each other 👍

[@Sharkeys100]

Being in the crowd was mad! Better live than on recordings!

[@andrewgascoyne6091]

brillllllll that song made me forget x

[@vchicioreanu]

I think they are the happiest music band during the concerts. Cheers to the crowd!

[@mkml5490]

love from indonesia!! 🇲🇨

[@Miguelziim]

Thanks for this lifechanging music, guys

[@boleroboy723]

Saw them at the Simcoe Stop Over and the Molson Amphitheatre in Toronto - every performance absolutely exhilarating - when you see the crowd movement on this video - that is exactly what you are moved to do when watching and listening to M&S . Best band ever !

[@louieduran4034]

Mumford and sons I have to say they are one of the best bands ive heard in my life I give them a 10 I can't wait to see them at red rocks here in Denver Colorado

[@jcreations9353]

This band got me through some hard times! Very thankful for them.

[@Oh_I_Will]

Oh yea….I remember when you said you spilled paint in your garage….tough times, indeed
