When an acoustic group plays into one microphone, perfectly tuned, perfectly aligned; there is created another frequency besides those made by the individual instruments. A the Station Inn (45 yrs ago in N’ville), we always noticed this and called it God’s Additional. This song and these musicians tap into to that and it captured live, for us all to experience. This is how Real Music was presented- in this digital age, we do not have this, although we have wonderful advancements (think Steely Dan, Toto, etc), but here, for three short minutes, we get to step back in time, and experience God’s Additional, and it is a thing of perfection. Making this ‘The Perfect Song’. Congrats to Dave & Gillian who have left the conventional music industry and recaptured the Real Source of Music.

I’m here because I was raised in the town of CUMBERLAND GAP. I’ve stood on the pinnacle dozens of times. And as a child I remember every year someone would die going over Cumberland Mt , through the gap, in winter . Before the tunnel was built... Wonder place to be raised

In middle Tennessee there is a place called Cumberland Furnace - many have perished there also.

Watched the beginning of The Gentleman, heard a few lines of this song, grabbed the guitar, went here, played along and got it, now have to nail down the lyrics. Just a flat-out powerful ballad from the get-go. Fantastic and fun to play at the campfire this summer. Pure Americana.

The name Cumberland caught my ear as I once lived near the Cumberland River. I would've never heard Cumberland Gap if not for The Gentlemen

[@justinherdman87]

Top 10 song favorite... Thats in my top 10 movie favorite.. This song is one of those songs..... Just plain awesome.. everything works perfect.. And it really put the "goosebumps" in the gentleman movie.. Everything about this song is perfect, unforgettable, never gets old too me.. The vocals, beat, rhythm, DUO, etc.. Same goes for The Gentleman. I never get tired of this song... I nevvver get tired of the gentleman.. ALL I CAN SAY IS.. sequel.. for both...

There's always that one live, acoustic version that's a million times better than the studio version even though the studio version is already awesome. That's because the musicians can really connect and play off each other's energy.... God dammmmn goosebumps even after the 50th time on repeat ❣️❣️❣️😊
