The idea that a song about hatred and the malice that grows between two people inexorably bound became a group rallying around a cry of pain, turning it into a cathartic sound of unity, of finding togetherness in horrible circumstances... I should probably take a nap
song starts at about 1:54 !! what a lovely performance. the crowd singing together beautifully demonstrates the way music brings people together, i think. especially because the song is about hopelessness and solitude. it’s just immaculate.
Darnielle is so personal with his audience. He says he loves playing for them but always carries weight of it because he doesn't want to let them down. Great guy.
I was just thinking about this moment, at this show, and how it was so magical it has stuck with me after all these years. Really appreciate that you captured it, so much so that even though I thanked you 4 years ago, I came back to thank you again. :)
I've been spending the night listening to every live performance of this I can find. I think this is my favorite so far. The one where he lost his voice was good too though.
Putting your camera down and capturing the blind audio of everyone singing together… actually crying at how beautiful this is

Why is this genuinely one of the angriest songs ever made ever, period.
Angry? It seems self-deprecating . Angry at who? Themself or the other person ?everybody?
@@localscissors4036 all of the above, in that order
Respect for putting your camera away... and at least giving us the audio!
i’m crying so much
one of the greatest songs ever written.
This is one of the greatest songs of humanity, and this video is simply AWESOME. Thank you very much for posting it!

They need to come to Canada dammit.
The way the crowd starts singing louder at the chorus

I absolutely LOVE this
This was special

2:08
Great love song
As a 6th generational Floridian, I can understand much of this album. See America Right , tells me the writer knows something about Florida..
Thank you for recording and posting this! Just curious - why does it go dark in the middle?
John motioned for us to put our cameras down, so I just recorded audio from that point
Oh! I didn't catch that. I really appreciate your respect for the artist. Great show and a great crowd! Thanks again. :)
John was waiving at someone else to put their camera down around the time it goes dark.
Yeah since EVERYONE is singing it's good with the audio. Respect for you and John D.
this is all like a dark memory
but yeah... i hope us both die...
