[Verse 1] If you’re travelin' in the north country, fair Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline Remember me to one who lives there For she once was a true love of mine [Verse 2] If you go when the snowflakes storm When the rivers freeze and summer ends Please see she has a coat so warm To keep her from the howling winds [Verse 3] Please see if her hair hangs long If it rolls and flows all down her breast Please see for me if her hairs hangin' long For that’s the way I remember her best [Verse 4] I’m a-wondering if she remembers me at all Many times I’ve often prayed In the darkness of my night In the brightness of my day [Verse 5] So if you’re traveling in the north country, fair Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline Remember me to one who lives there For she once was a true love of mine
What concert was this from? Considering you're the only person I've been able to find on youtube with this video, do you know if there's an HD version?
Sephyx I’m sorry but that’s actually my least favorite version. I like the freewheeling’ version better, and actually this version right here is my favorite
Girl from the North Country means a lot to me. Almost any cover of it breaks me. My Wife...
I love when jim uses some twang in his voice. Hes one of the few vocalists I can tolerate using a country style
All of these guys are great folk legends.
Don't we all?
Best version of this song, conor & jim: two of the best musicians, of all time. both highly underated. & jim could be the voice of god.
M is better than J, C is on top tho.
I saw them play this at the Somerville Theatre in MA on 2/29/04. Great show.
This is the best version.
It's a close second for me. The Nashville skyline version (which this is almost a direct cover of) has gotta be my favorite.
Good stuff. No matter what, Johnny Cash and Dylan’s version together is untouchable
Love love love
3:40 - I imagine he is singing about me... and smiling at me... ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
mike mogis is a fucking wizard
He's playing God's instrument
Bright Eyes wouldn't be half the band they are without him, Conor knows that's why he's apart of almost all of his projects
[Verse 1]
If you’re travelin' in the north country, fair
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline
Remember me to one who lives there
For she once was a true love of mine
[Verse 2]
If you go when the snowflakes storm
When the rivers freeze and summer ends
Please see she has a coat so warm
To keep her from the howling winds
[Verse 3]
Please see if her hair hangs long
If it rolls and flows all down her breast
Please see for me if her hairs hangin' long
For that’s the way I remember her best
[Verse 4]
I’m a-wondering if she remembers me at all
Many times I’ve often prayed
In the darkness of my night
In the brightness of my day
[Verse 5]
So if you’re traveling in the north country, fair
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline
Remember me to one who lives there
For she once was a true love of mine
Jim James just obliterates in this.
Who do i search for on itunes for this
Could just call this video “Monsters of Folk: From the North Country” haha
Good Dylan cover
This is Monsters of Folk.

+Michael Rasmussen It's from ACL when Bright Eyes played, back in 2004/2005.
It’s from the Austin City Limits performance by Monsters of Folk at ACL Moody Theater, recorded same year they played ACL Festival in 2010
@@PriestsandParamedics is right. It’s not from 2010.

Sephyx I’m sorry but that’s actually my least favorite version. I like the freewheeling’ version better, and actually this version right here is my favorite
