[@victoriaharris3138]

i love how the song/video/cinematography work together in this compilation. someone commented saying they should slow the song down... i disagree so seriously. the pace is almost the best part of this song, not to mention what it adds to the video. the light gleaming off of the sweat on their foreheads, feet stomping on the ground, trying to keep up with the beat, fingers picking strings so fast that they just look like a blur. that's extreme, extreme talent.

[@davekemp9585]

Besides, TBT have a lot of slow songs ... leave this gem as it is!

[@OceanSkate401]

@Victoria Harris Your comment here makes me think that you were an alien, and you morphed into a human, and you had made this comment on your first day on earth, because you were just so excited about learning the English language, and like you just said a bunch of random stuff.

[@gregsimmons3323]

Yeah, and it looks like it was maybe shot on 16mm also, with not very fast film. Low res and gritty.... The depth of field is so short that at points the singer just moves his head a little and goes out of focus. There's the sense that the music is pushing past the limits of what can be captured....

[@djdaddyd5032]

I completely agree, the intensity is important here. And all of these instruments are so hard to master in this way

[@amorpaz1]

Yeah, I’m not a fan of speed for speed’s sake but the ridiculous tempo is what makes this song so good

[@stevenbard8026]

I love coming back to this song and it being like the first time I've ever heard it. Truly a masterpiece. Thank you Trampled by Turtles.

[@susancampbell1480]

I love the speed of the instruments in this song and the alternative speed of the calm and clear lyrics.

[@bubmoley1194]

Best memory to this song. Speeding down gravel roads in a dump truck doing around 45. Watching the fence post fly by faster and faster. The driver stops the truck and starts dancing. I'm a city boy soaking up the country culture. Speeding past the cows eating grass while on grass. Your music matched the scenery, prrrrrrfectly.

I have been listening to bluegrass music for about 2 years now. What drew me to it in the first place was the mandolin and just how beautiful the sound was and how weird the instrument itself was. It’s what motivated me to pick it up. But overtime, listening to bluegrass has been more than that for me. I can’t quite put it into words but I will say this, I’m glad I started listening to it. Because this genre is just rich. Absolutely rich. And I just discovered these guys two months ago which is insane because like I said I’ve been listening to bluegrass for two years. It’s safe to say that these guys are a hidden treasure in a way. I love these guys and this song and “silver and gold” are my favorite songs. Keep up the amazing music guys ❤️
