LYRICS:
There is a place that I used to go
Given its name by the buffalo
Filled me up and eased my pain
Washed my soul without the rain
Oh aberdeen
You been calling to me
Calling me to make my way back home
To that cool summer breeze
And those old evergreens
The only place to rest my weary bones
Soon I will go and free my heart
To that sage and stone
Beneath the stars
Clear my mind and float my soul
To lay down all my sorrows
Oh aberdeen
You been calling to me
Calling me to make my way back home
To that cool summer breeze
And those old evergreens
The only place to rest my weary bones
Filmed by Jimmy Bates

A special thanks to the Talbot family and their horse Snip.

Anyone else think this would make an AMAZING intro song for a Western movie?
Set in Scotland
I think its Aberdeen in Washington state USA
More like Texas. Originally in Scotland, though.
Comon
Should be a theme song for red dead 2
All these new singles aren’t just music anymore. Avi makes pure art.
Kara Spankadocious couldn’t have said it any better
yup is it me or his music videos are better than prettymuch everything thats on youtube and yet he's just walking or sitting down on different landscapes ?? haha
Music is audible art; just listen to Chopin and try to tell me that’s not art.
Music IS art
Youre right
Avi and Hozier singing together would make such a masterpiece
That would be so amazing
That be epic in the true meaning of the word
Two forest gods together? Yes PLEASE
AGREE
ik
Liked him with Pentatonix. Love him better as a solo artist.
James Lewis I gotta disagree and agree on that one, with Pentatonix he just sang base which I really really love. But as solo he does still and makes banger songs. Whatever he prefers I am good with :)
I like his musical style a lot
Same!!! He was the only real reason I liked them but he never really sang a lot. Now I have a way to only hear him!!!! 💜💜💜💜🥰🥰🥰
Yeah because he didn't have chance to sing that much when he was in the group
100%
Met him in a pizza place after his Seattle show, nicest guy in the world, truly. Gave us hugs even. Incredibly talented and still humble.
I. Am. So. Jealous
I was at this show too and I would have died of happiness to meet him.
We worked with him this last spring with small groups in our schools for a concert. For two days w held a private workshop with him and each of us got to spend time with him... he really is super nice.
Omg i like hugs is he a good hugger
@@Scriblyn yes, he really is.
@@christinalove2062 I was there before he arrived and after. He is a kind soul. Remembers you and listens to only you.
I couldn't understand why Avi wanted to separate from Pentatonix...after hearing his solo music, I now understand! #brilliant
Yep....best thing ever!
Wasn't this because he wanted to spend more time with family? Or was there some feud?
@@jannegrey593 He left to spend more family time. I don't think the members of Pentatonix would EVER kick him out. Not in a million years.
@@jannegrey593 I saw Avi live in Nashville in April. He talked about why he left PTX.
He said the same thing he's said many times. He hated the pressure of the PTX lifestyle.
Theres a great interview in Enjoy South Valley where he talks about his work. You should look it up.
💌
Pentatonix really won’t be the same without him but I’m also happy his full potential is showing as a solo artist
Their new bass is pretty darn good however. Still miss Mr. Avi's contribution.
I agree with you
Pentatonix should be okay, but that has to be a hard life when you can’t make personal plans without clearing it with at least 4 other people. And every band eventually gets “sticky” with personality conflicts and romances. Not saying that happened with Pentatonix, but I can certainly imagine how it might.
It’s amazing that Pentatonix has been so unique and successful for so very long. I wish them continued success.
Really tough on Pentatonix. One of their first songs since avi's departure, the Mr Grinch cover, didn't really do anything for me. At least they still have K.O. I don't think I'll ever forget the radioactive cover with Kevin on the cello, and Lindsey Stirling on the violin. I sure hope they don't flop.
@@vickikunetka1111 hi
A man of this talent simply couldn't remain in a cover band.
yikes...
but it's true
they're not a cover band but i get what you're saying
He & Kevin wrote & arranged some of PTX' original songs - of which there are many.
@@shilohauraable But no one knows about them :D That's the catch. If you are known mostly by your covers, you are a cover artist.
But it is a pity Kristin
I'm 71 years old and this music goes right back to my bones.
Wonderful!!! Love it.
RanchStock Stray I love that you being a different generation than Avi, but his music hits us all on different ages. Also Happy 4th July to you dear sir!
I’m 66 and I’ve been a musician all my life. I started playing guitar at age 7, and I’ve played professionally since I was 16. Avi’s music is powerful. It is music that crosses all ages, genres and boundaries. His voice is amazing and his music is what music is supposed to be.
@@RandalSmith I totslly agree. I feel it could also go through cultures and other countries without translation as the feeling is definitely there. :)
I'm 48 and grew up in the inner city. Listened to a lot of folk music, jazz, pop/rock, classical, gospel and country..
I could listen to Avi's music all day.
I think it's because he is so completely honest with any piece of music he creates. It comes from deep inside and so touches people deeply also.
And that Voice!
Never was into folk music. You changed my perception of it
Felt the same way my dude
That Guy Over There yeah same!!
AFC Ajax same
Same here man!
like for me )))
If you are watching this in 2021 you are blessed as you have survived 2020. Much love to you and have a much better year! ❤️
Back atcha Kitty..❤️
yes - and back to you, too
I am from Aberdeen, Scotland. I approve this song
As good as Pentatonix is, and they are good, I always felt Avi's voice got buried and lost in that quintet. Now, though, I see how brilliant, moving, refreshing and genuine his sound is and how much we will all learn to appreciate his solo career. Kudos and thanks Avi.
I get what you mean I kind of agree.. But I would say PTX serves an other purpose, the bass has no point in stepping on the others voices, but yeah, I definetely wanted to see him as a solo artist, we didn't get enough of him alone in PTX(although it's my favorite group of all times) 😁
I am sorry to say, but if you thought his voice was buried, you were not listening well enough. The bass is the heart of music, I don't like the new sound in their blend. There is an obvious difference in the tonal quality of their music now.
@@thegamerdudeabides I think Matt does à pretty good job, taking Avi's place is not easy and he's bringing something new to their sound that I really dig !! For me he fits really well in the group!!
@@Kaleh73 I may have overstated myself. I still enjoy the music, but for me, I miss Avi.
@@thegamerdudeabides Obviously me too ;-) I'm dreaming everyday about a new collab btw PTX and Avi...
I have come to the conclusion that this man was the reason why PTX was so special to me.
I was thinking exactly the same right now. Now they turned into something very pop
I don't listen to them anymore. Avi was Pentatonix. I love his solo music!
Same. I do not care for their sound anymore. I only pop in for Mitch
@@silentdocument5063
Yea when Mitch takes command of a song and the others are in full swing there is still some of the good old feels around. Though I love each and every single one of them (and also Matt is great) - but Avi left a gap there, unfilled to this date.
OP 1000 me too
I think of soundtracks of 1950s westerns. Longing for home or a special place. Absolutely magnificent.
This man has enough soul for a hundred men.
It's about bloody time musicians got back to creating music. Songs with a story to tell, lyrics that sync up with your heart, rhythms that make your soul speak up. Beautiful. Thank you.
so true .. this is excactly how I feel
I agree
You should check out Projected Twin. His “Letters to the Sky” cover is amazing, but his original song “The Signature” is one of my favorite songs ever.
bahm diggity says the British guy listening to western music smh
@@jamieoliver9620 what does his nationality have to do with anything...? Since when was music limited in such a way. My dude, music us for all to enjoy, no matter what path you walk, where you're from, etc.
Not gonna lie Avi, you made me realize that I really like this kind of music. I thank you for that.
Same
Same!
You should look up Dan Fogelberg's album _High Country Snows._ One of the best bluegrass albums I've ever heard.
@@imagomonkei thanks for the suggestion
Also check out First Aid Kit and the soundtrack to The Broken Circle Breakdown. Some great bluegrass too :-)
We all have a place like this. I'll never forget Sonora, Texas. But I'll never go back.
You carried Pentatonix.. you are a treasure... never forget that!!!
10 seconds into the video and wishing I could like more than once! Avi just makes DAMN GOOD MUSIC!
I couldn't agree anymore..well said 😄
I'll like this video again for you, Danny. I don't especially like it but I figured others do.
This sounds like the kind of song that plays while the credits are rolling on a somber episode of a Netflix show based in Texas
I hope his work gets picked up and used in the media. It belongs there.
Sounds like something that'd play after an episode of blacklist. They've use Jolene by dolly before.
This sounds like it should be in red dead redemption 2
it should be on heartland! :)
read my mind
The bardic voice. It has that warmth, humanity and humility in it...
This is my "happy" song, I always end up in a better mood after listening to this one. The lyrics are beautiful, beautiful voice, awesome music and the awesome whistling!!! 💙 💙 💙 💙
I never knew I needed to see Avi ride a horse. Great song too man! ❤️
I knew that I did
He looks like a devilishly handsome outlaw.
oh yeah....
His phenomenal voice makes up for his lack of confidence in his horsemanship (this coming from someone who worked with horses for a couple of decades). But I hear you. A man on a horse.....
Lol! You sorta need to see EVERYONE ride a horse, either you're super impressed or you get to laugh your ass off at the fails!!!😂😂😂😂
I don't think I've ever clicked a TH-cam notification so fast. Avi you are truly my favorite solo artist. Even when you were still in PTX I always had a certain affinity for your voice. I'm so glad you decided to make music that makes you happiest at a pace you like. I respect that so much. Thanks for being an inspiration.
Yeah, I was upset when he decided to leave PTX but now... But now I'm happier then ever 😁😁😁
Just bought a ticket to the OKC show!!!!
I always had a soft spot for his voice when he was in PTX. that rich, velvet, sweet,( and many other adjectives ) voice. I just love his new stuff now. he is great but he is greatly missed in ptx. unfortunately I can't watch without him there. tried to but something was misssing
Totally agree
charah B. I know Same It ain’t Ptx Without Avi Kaplan
Man is a fox. That voice would melt ice.
Just found this song on the wonders of TH-cam !! From Aberdeen in Scotland !! Beautiful Lyrics
0 naked women
0 cars
0 swearing

LOVE IT
Exactly
The thot has no power over the simple working man.
Edyta Palczewska
Yes!
Edyta Palczewska true talent doesn’t need the extras😉
No men only god
Avi’s solo career is the best thing that’s come out of Pentatonix.
agreed
LOL you wish
Best thing that's GONE out of Pentatonix
multiple things can be good at the same time, without putting one above others.
@@3skelion Thank you! Why people choose to take their like of something and use it to unnecessarily insult something else, I have no idea...
Dear heavens... how did I miss this lovely, elegant, haunting musical miracle by Avi! His voice is pure spun gold on every note... you feel like he's walking and singing through your soul on every word!
TOTALLY AGREE
Hi Mark, Could you help me with a question I have? in the short that he did as a wayfarer stranger what does he say in the last part of the song ?, after I'm going over along the Jordan. Thank you
I swear, his voice is like an angel.
Both Avi and the horses manes are in sync!
Avi's music is like warm wood and sun-kissed earth... powerful, honest & pure. Just mesmerizing.
So well said!
I love his voice as well. To me it is like vocal honey for the ears - so smooth, warm and sweet.
I could not have said it better myself .he kinda of puts you right there don't he..🔥💕
Concordo contigo :)
Very articulate description!
Riding in an open field at full gallop is literally the best thing in the entire world. 😍
He has a voice of an Angel…
I never thought that I would be kinda glad when you left Pentatonix.
Your music is Pure Art and moves my heart.
Dennis Gremory I would be glad if the rest of Pentatonix fallow his path, or maybe not the whole gang, just Kristin
Barz
😢
*OH MY GOSH!!!! The horse! The horse! The horse!! I have been so stressed out because of my mom’s health. This just made my day.*
Lots of love to you and your mother!
Hope everything turns out ok💕
@Toredus @Goodmusic
😭😭 *Thank you both so very much for your kind words. I needed some cheering up. This song & video, along with your kind words has cheered me up some.*
*Unfortunately, things won’t get better for my mom. That’s one reason I’m so stressed out. I don’t want to be depressing, though. Much love & hugs to you both.*
It’s gonna be okay💜
@@HelloKitty-jz5gm I'll pray for your mom!
Brilliant. 👏👍🍺🏴. From Aberdeen Scotland
Oh #AviKaplan . I got chills. This is an absolute gem. 🥰
I honestly don't have words to describe how phenomenal this is. He is a vocal master.
The only flaw is that it ends
This song is beautiful. I listen to it often.
Jesus has such an incredible voice.
This man is a blessing to earth
True
Man, this makes me miss a place I'm not sure I've ever seen.
Jared Barton WOW, I thought it was just me! I have been to many places out west but the song brings a longing in the heart to go and experience the places I have missed. I want to get in a horse and ride into the sunset!
A beautiful song, a beautiful voice, a beautiful man.
Every time i listen to Avi, i just feel my mind & soul being cleansed from every pain and heaviness, its like he carries me into another world and lets me be there for a while
I agree. I can just feel the heaviness melt away.
100% agree
Your so right i clear my mind
Yep that’s why I love this song so much. I feel something melt away and it’s like I just transcend to a different dimension.
Avi I'm not gonna lie, I'm getting frustrated with your videos. I get distracted by the beauty in them and I forget to listen to the song, so then I have to watch/listen to the video a thousand times before I know the song. It's a vicious cycle, but for you, I'm willing to do it. :) Please keep it up!
It’s the same for me
A virtuous cycle :)
Same for me because I haven’t visited a lot of USA. I am British! And his videos makes me really want to! Haha
Love it!
I'll admit I miss songs where you truly showed your bass though
The summit is easily my favourite by him. So much bass in the verses.
change on the rise
The Summit: *"Am I a joke to you?"*
I thinkmits critical to remember he's more than a bass. Bass is nice, but this man is not to be pigeonholed, as it were. Hell, I don't even know how to classify his music. "Ear art" I guess.
Mr SteamFunk Change On The Rise
Aberdeen - I would love to find my way back home! Lovely tune.
thnx for making my days so much better i got a bigg boost to my mental health thnx avi
Person "So, what type of music does Avi make?"
Me "all of it"
Madison Martin i think that's what all musicians should do... not just make one genre of music that maybe their fans expect, but what they like doing. I think its far more genuine that way
Madison Martin right lol
Madison Martin I'd say "Great music"
LYRICS:
There is a place that I used to go,
Given its name by the buffalo,
Filled me up and eased my pain,
Washed my soul without the rain,
Oh Aberdeen you've been calling to me,
Calling me to make my way back home,
To that cool summer breeze,
And those old evergreens,
The only place to rest my weary bones,
Soon I will go and free my heart,
To that sage and stone beneath the stars,
Clear my mind and float my soul,
To lay down all my sorrows,
Oh Aberdeen you've been calling to me,
Calling me to make my way back home,
To that cool summer breeze,
And those old evergreens,
The only place to rest my weary bones.
😁♥️🤙🏼love the song Avi!
His voice reminds me of a mountain: powerful but beautiful and nearly haunting
This song is unique, it's not like anything else out there. It's understated but elegant in a masculine way. I love Pentatonix, however I had no idea what Avi was really capable of going solo. So happy he choose to make his own path on his life's journey. This shouldn't take anything away from his time with Pentatonix either, it's all good singing.
This reminds me so much of the singer/songwriter country-western songs from the 60s. I grew up listening to those songs and they are in my soul. This song calls to them and my childhood.
I was literally thinking the same thing!!
Thought today would be pretty average...
*Goes to TH-cam*
*Sees Avi uploaded another song*
Guess I was wrong
I would really love it if Avi and Chris Stapleton collaborated. The raw and refined sounds of the soul.
Как хорошо, что среди всего хаоса творящегося сегодня в мире есть такие замечательные, душевные песни!
I LOVE this song!!! There is an old clip where he talks about riding horses (ScarletPirate1), Kevin laughs at him and sarcastically calls him a country boy. I laughed cause I thought Avi was just joking. I stand corrected!
Kat V He was definitely misunderstood then by the group. Glad to see him forge his own way with his own music.
While I still mourn your separation from Pentatonix, I am SO STINKING HAPPY you make beautiful music still. Your voice is to die for and you've nailed your aesthetic. 15/10
Everytine he sings, he send me to the place he is in, hilarious❤❤
ABSOLUTLY BEST SONG OF AVI SINCE NOW
YES
Goosebumps right from the first word. *Thank you thank you thank you*
Greetings from Aberdeen Scotland - Great Britain!! This song is just amazing!!!
This is the kind of music that I can never really describe to people but I just love it. It’s intangible and wonderful and just hits you perfectly.
Yes 🙌🏽…I absolutely agree. It’s just simply BEAUTIFUL . 🙆🏻♀️❤ 👏🏽.
@@stephanieallangarman5598calm down
I really like the Americana sound he's embracing.
Nicholas Cagish....
It's All American Country. Get that shit straight!
I think Aberdeen is a place in Scotland though, no? I may be wrong, I am only 12 but I think it’s northern Scotland
@@zarakamat1805 this one is in California, close to where he was born. Sierra Nevada mountain range you see in the video, Mohave desert where the video was shot all are in the vicinity.
@@zarakamat1805
You are right. It's actually on the northeast coast of Scotland and is the main UK city for the oil and gas industry. It is known as "The Granite City" as many of the buildings are made from this rock which is sourced nearby. Unfortunately there aren't many cactus growing there and not much desert either. But we do have good whisky 😆.
There's a billion singers out there. BUT THERES ONLY ONE AVI KAPLAN AND HES GOTTA BE THE BEST :)
I was sad when he left Pentatonix but now?....Wow just wow!!
When Avi sings, I can feel the resonance of his voice in my chest.
It's always a good day when Avi releases music
Drone pilot/cameraman killed it 👌
I literally grew up in an old home on a street called Aberdeen, the happiest time of my life was there, and this song just perfectly encapsulates how thinking about that home and time feels
I always come back to listen to this impeccable voice.
The elemental themes are so apparent in avi’s music videos; change on the rise with fire, otherside with water, and now this with earth! It honestly makes me so happy to see these themes being used by avi
So air is next........😲
Jesus Christ you never disappoint, your voice literally puts me in a state of transcendence. I thank you
Yes, Jesus Christ never disappoints. Jesus Christ named the Buffaloes and created Aberdeen so Avi can enjoy it
🎉❤🎉 Avi Kaplan, I just can't other but to love this Artist dearly, with Pentatonix and now solo, God Bless!!!!!
In my opinion this play is the best of his songs.
@Av Kaplan private page I'm a fan of God, but I also like your music, this one especially (it's my phone ring also). God gave you this special gift. You should use it for His praises. Also, I think your voice contrastes very nice with that of children.
Good luck in your work and beautiful days!
Wonderful feeling to this Aberdeen video. The innate urgency to return to the place one calls home was all there. Beautiful lyrics, music, and visual interpretation. Loved the incorporation of the horse....full gallop....racing home! I can totally relate. Thanks for sharing your heart!
I get the feeling that, that home he mentions is unreachable in a way..covered in nostalgia..just pure yearning for home.. But that's totally subjective and I love the emotion it invokes!
thats not even close to a gallop XD
@@anapm2927 I know what you mean. There is a lake system in a place called Kangaroo Valley, 3 hours south of where I grew up. I went canoeing there as a young teen and have yearned to go back ever since. If I return, part of me wonders whether I'll feel the nostalgia of the place, or just create a new memory.
@@Jen.V843 I bet it'd be a bit of both! A nostalgia enveloped new memory if that makes sense!
@@anapm2927 Thanks! I think you've just convinced me to just go there and not keep wondering!
Avi's Producer: So how much reverb do you want on this one Avi?
Avi: Yes.
Awesome song, beautiful voice, brilliant artist!
It is the place where you are connected to the universe. It draws you back to it.
Avi it is past time for your own concert on PBS !!!! you are one of the best singers YAH ever created ... love you dearly
This song has a good clean energy
Everything Avi has sung does, honestly
How is it possible that every song you release I love even more than the last?
Such an amazing talent that you have!!
Thank you for sharing it with the world.
This music nullifies my negative proclivities 🙌
Die Stimme ist traumhaft ich liebe sie ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow. Another masterpiece. Avi really changed the trend on folk music. A mixture of love, nature, harmony and solemnity.
Avi has been in my room at night so often, singing me to sleep, that I should send him his own key.
LMAO
Child what you say?
J I
T 88 oo 0
I can't sleep without Avi in my ears.....
I feel this song so much. Nothing really special about Aberdeen specifically, but North Central WA, specifically Wenatchee Valley ... and all that desert area surrounded by the Cascade Mountains... it's magical like being IN a Western and this song transports me there...
My favorite of Avi... until I hear the next one!!!!
My grandpa died today and this has made my heart calm.
I’m sorry for your loss. I can imagine your grandpa going to his personal version of Aberdeen. This song, and maybe Otherside may help give you a sense of calm.
Sorry for your loss
Avi's songs has been on my loop for the past few days.
Sorry for your loss. This song is pure peace. I hope you find yours. I am sure that your grandfather has found his.
I'm sorry for your loss
The best thing is that he is just himself, nothing more!😮😘👏👏🐴
One of my favorites. I close my eyes and get lost in that beautiful voice. Thank you Avi.
I am still dreaming! So beautiful, thank you Avi
I’m just here to say that I love all the locations in your all of your music videos. Breathtaking!
Who else would like Avi to sing this together with Dolly Parton?
Oh!!
Great suggestion...I can almost hear it in my head. 🎼🎸🎤
He did sing with her. Lol
@@stephanielongmore Everybody knows that. But they didn't sing this song and it lends itself perfectly for another collab.
@@JC130676 okay rude ass
Avi Kaplan haut die Lieder mit gefühl raus und da fühlt man sich einfach wohl so, dass die Gedanken einfach schweifen und man sich auf Avi Kaplan konzentrieren kann und sich von seiner bezaubernden stimme mitreißen lässt.
This is my absolute favourite song you've released so far! No doubt in my mind.
Stunningly beautiful. Thank you Avi
