For my husband and I this was 'our song'. We sold everything and bought a sailboat. We were able to sail around the Caribbean for four years but unfortunately he died 9/4/23. This was the one song I wanted played at his memorial. I can't hear it without crying but it means so much to me.
Sorry for your loss. My wife died 4 years ago with 49. Every minute every day in my mind. I love to hear music we loved. I love to hear music I know she would love. Music and tears are like a cleaning thunderstorm. Die Erinnerung, sie bleibt immer jung! ❤
I walked away from my whole entire life to take care of my Dad for 5-6 years. Best thing I ever did. I’d drive him around and play his favorite music, get him whatever food he wanted "usually Whataburger”, and we’d just enjoy the time together. I will never take that back. I got years back in time that in time many will understand. Tucked him into bed every night and told him I love you Dad.
My husband played into the Mystic as i walked down the isle to marry him.. these two songs are beautiful together and they should play it at our funerals. Our lives have been described bythese songs. 35 yrs later..we're still goin strong. ❤
Story of my life with my wife if 33 years. Into the mystic was our song. She just passed away. you made it even better Zac. Still cry like a baby when I listen to it. It does sum up our life. We traveled for my job for 23 years. Coast to coast. Good bye to my brown eyed girl. Wait up there for me
XThis is my song for the love of my life and I in the 70's. He was killed in an accident 2 months after he asked me to marry him. We had been together, 24/7 for those 7 years, FREE AS WE'LL EVER BE! That was 44 years ago. Always in my heart and in my soul. Thank you Zac Brown Band! I'm 69, alone, and this song, and your voice singing it, brings my heart to life! 💫💖💫
I played Van Morrison's version @ my late Navy Chiefs funeral! It's been 20 years! I attended Kenny Chessney and Zack Brown concert yesterday! When this was played! I felt my sweet husband was Free and So Am I ! Love! Never dies! Life is a true gift!! 🕊️🕊️🕊️💓
Absolutely breathtaking performance there, Being a 73 yr. old Vietnam veteran, I know I am in the fourth quarter of the game called life. I want this played at my funeral. Rock on ZB Band!
Played this song for my daddy when he was passing in the hospital. He loves this version. Many of time on the lake, cruising in the boat trying to wet a line. He was a simple man that changed so many lives. He is free now and I am reminded that one day I will be too. Love you daddy ❤️
This was one of my husband's and my favorite songs, especially when we were traveling. I had my son play it as well when my husband was dying from liver cancer. He just let out a huge sigh, but we could see the memories on his face. So sorry for your loss, may Jesus embrace you with the peace only He can give...
Stay strong brother. I am a Marine Veteran. I am in the second quarter. And I too can go home to glory with this song being played. I just love the Zac Brown Band. Be blessed!
I find myself coming back to this mash-up quite often. I find that it picks me up when I'm down, humbles me when my ego gets too big, centers me when my soul wanders, and makes me slow down and appreciate all that life is when it's moving too fast.
Sometimes music speaks what you feel inside. The late 70s 80s were the best many great memories. This music takes me back when things made sense. Great music.this kind of music keeps your mind good.music for Life. Still here 2024!!!!
I absolutely love this!! As hard as it is, tears in my eyes!! Reminds me of my late wife! It's been 5 years now, sense she left this earth!! We were both 42, and in love since 2nd grade!! We were planning on traveling the country, dancing in the moonlight!! This song is all her!!
Brother, glad you have found a way of remembrance. May she rest in paradise and dance along every time this song is played. Sending all positive thoughts and amazing grace.
Don't listen to country music. I live on the other side of the world and have never heard of this singer or band. I heard this a month ago and have listened to it every day since, numerous times. Simply outstanding.
I love this song so much I play it several times a day! Reminds me of my late husband who passed in 2020 we were married for 34 years and I miss him so bad! So thank you for this Beautiful song
Always has been close to my heart as well. Lost my wife to cancer this past February after 34yrs as well. With all respect, maybe this means something? I don't know? Would love to explore the possibility with you! Thank you for taking the time! Eugene Visocky
I lost my wife 14 years ago, and I got lucky to find a woman to share my life with, this song makes me think of her ,she is a free spirit, and I love her soo..
I'm right there with you, friend I've never met! Was very close just yesterday, heard this song, and knew pulling the trigger wouldn't solve anything, only make it worse for the ones I love, so, I am taking the gun apart this morning, as I listen to this...
Free I retired at age 47 so I could enjoy life. I’ve had friends who worked till age 70 and die a month later. This music reminds you to stop and see what’s real. Keep Jamming and I will keep listening. ☮️
"Sir Van" is not a nice guy. Talented, but a jerk. I hated country music but loved Chris Stapleton when I heard him sing The National Anthem so I've been looking for alternative country since then. And this is alternative country. Zach Bryan, Jelly Roll...
Hello You seem so amazing thanks for being a friend here on UA-cam. I was actually so amazed to see your profile photo, you remind me of an old friend. Normally, I don't text on UA-cam though it's my official UA-cam for chatting. How're you? And hope you're enjoying your day.
Saw Van Morrison in Hollywood back in the late 60s. Small club about 50 people. Just a beautiful memory I was about 22 years old. God what a great evening and date that was.
My daughter’s wedding song was Into the Mystic. Perfect for what turned into a wonderful mystical family. This blending with Free and the band’s performance is perfect.
My son and I danced to Into the Mystic since before he could walk. Now at 20 he towers over me. My son is 6'5 now and we still dance to it. I made him promise that this song would be the music for our mother son dance when he gets married. ❤❤
18 months since my husband passed away after an automobile accident. He was only 57. He ❤ this song. It was played at his memorial service. I've listened to this song so many to count. I ❤ Van Morrison, what a great song writer. Zac Brown is absolutely gorgeous 😢💔
The thing that amazes me about this video ? The amazing transition between free and into the mystic then back to free ! A classy band that seems flawless ! Thank you for sharing your talents with the world !
This song fills my soul - I feel the words, instruments working its way through me - in my car with the wind blowing my hair, I sing (poorly) at the top of my lungs. Keep making these beautiful songs that let us float with the melody 🥰
Absolutely AMAZING FREAKING COMPILATION! This makes an amazing song that brings back sweet memories! Van Morrison’s “Into the Mystic” was an amazing choice and Zac and the gang hit a HOMERUN with this one!
My goodness, the start of this song with the violinist is absolutely breathtaking to me!!! I love music 🎶 🎵 Wow, some of his greatest songs, too. I love it so very much. Speaks to my very soul!!!
I used to play with a great American violin player / great friend in Chengdu, China… I returned in January 2022, but he is stuck there because he overstayed his work visa, and they are prosecuting him😢. I listen to this man play, and pray for the day Brian and I can jam together again.
The first time I heard this song, I was driving my 28ft RV with snow around the mountains & for the first time I felt FREE to be the woman I wanted to be!
I truly can't explain how these two songs move my soul...so many beautiful memories that I've tried to forget... but these songs bring all that love I had for him back ❤
I’ve watched this a few times and I always smile through the whole thing. I’ve watched it for years on UA-cam and he always speaks so lovingly about his wife and family as does link. Keep the good music coming james and the shame
This song reminds me of my daughter that I lost 2 months ago. She was such a free spirit in life. She always help other people and love her dogs. I miss her so much I will always love her.
I’ve had one hell of ride in life I’m only 22 I listen to this every morning to remind my self the blessing I have to live in this country. I try not to dwell on my past hardships I know others have had it rougher even though it seemed my homelessness, in and out of juvenile, and much more was a never ending cycle. But life’s good and God is good I’m here today that’s what matters! Finally starting my career tomorrow not much stress anymore got a beautiful family and soon to be wife. This me my honeys song we grab a drink and just watch that tide come in and out! Anyone who reads this remember there’s light at the end of the tunnel life’s a bitch but take a deep look into what’s important what really matters and that will pick you up! 🇺🇸🇨🇱
I’m 25 and I have to still keep telling myself this every morning. God bless! I’m from South Georgia and we always say “It’s gone rain hard before the sun shines bright.” Hard times will come just like the seasons of the year but you got to plant yourself like a tree and tell others to grab a branch and f themselves with it.
I play this song on loop. I'll be 72 march 28. I am rich beyond your wildest dreams. I started out from a small rural town in ky. At 18 I started hitchhiking and have been to many countries but of all the places I've been to and all the beautiful people I have met lovers I've had sunsets I've watched the sun coming up while listening to the ocean beat against the shore lying naked in the sand. Hitching a ride to boulder and walking up on past Estes park into the mountains. It was springtime and the bite of winter blew hard at nite while the sun was almost hot during the day. I found a small cave by a stream way up high snow still cover the earth. I put an old army blanket over the entrance while watching the fire I'd made jump around and listened to the wind howl thru the trees. I had a child at 26 and raised him the best I could. He has his doctorate in law and doesn't speak to me he says for self preservation. I was so in love with that little boy and gave him the world but it was my world not his. Our children are from us not of us. Was so heartbreaking. I will always remember him as my little boy and I moved on living in my old jeep with my boxer the love of my life. I've seen the world and I've seen our county change. Kids today don't have a clue what the word free means but I do and I would die to save this dirt that i love from sea to the mountains to the ocean shores. May God help us keep her. Thank you zb for making my heart sing and remember what life has been about for this old woman with such a young heart!!
That was so beautiful.... There is something I have to ask you though... How did you avoid getting sand-burn on your "down-under" region when you were doing it on the beach???
@@jamieingels1190 when you are experiencing living and loving with all your senses, while sharing something so profound and beautiful, did it really matter?
Talk to your son, don't leave anything unsaid, forgive each other for anything and everything. As Jimmy Buffett once wrote in a lyric, "Life is short, call now"
You describe my life. I too began journeying via foot and thumb at a young age. At sixty four, I am still at it. Society tells you how you should proceed through life, I chose a different path. I decided that I would go to the mountain and climb it, rather than wait until all that I could do was come back with a T-shirt that said that I had been there. Your life, is a personal choice. It is no others to make for you. I chose, to be a collector of experiences, and though at times, it has been hard, I wouldn’t change a single thing. Love ya Sister!
For many years I had a very successful security company in Canada. Over the years we performed our service for most of the big name performer. Elton John, Willie, Burton, Melissa, etc. I treated my 15 year old daughter and 96 years mother to a Zac Brow concert at Rogers centre in Toronto Canada. The band was on the money and the crowd really appreciated them. Being a musician so did I but when they came back out for their encore they each chose a song they wanted to perform, It was so moving I was in tears. Every song they chose sounded like the original band that made the songs famous. Collectively, as musicians these gentleman are as good as any I have ever heard. Thank you band!!!!!
Still makes me cry. A wonderful combination of my favorite original song, and my mum's favorite Van Morrison song by my favorite singer/band. I believe it was Eric Church who said music has a unique ability to marry a melodie to a memory but none could ever do it better than this
Zac Brown…..the most talented man with the greatest band….y’all have such a GIFT FROM GOD…THE BEST CONCERT I EVER WENT TO…..can’t wait for more concerts in Columbus Ga…I love y’all and love your beard trimmed….hugs carolyn ratliff. (Dune buggy’s mom)
One of my favorite songs EVER WRITTEN!! There is something so magical about this band and the only way I can try to explain it is treat yourself and go see this band LIVE!!
One of the best country songs ever! You can see the emotion in each band member! You know it’s a powerful and meaningful song when the members of the band are playing and singing with their eyes closed!
I agree with you, what a wonderful song it is, a melody that reaches the soul and sensitizes the deepest part of the being, it is beautiful, from Venezuela
I was 10 years old when Van Morrison came out with “Into the Mystic” back in 1970. It is still, and will always be my favorite song. Y’all have done this song, amazing, justice by mashing it with your song “Free”. This will be my number one mashup. Every band member on ever instrument, absolutely phenomenal.
I was born in 1957. Did the Columbia House 12 records for a buck thing in the early 70's. I l really lucked out picking Van's Moondance album. Really appreciated Van ever since. Saw him last year in Harrisburg with Willie Nelson and Sturgill Simpson.
Knew Zac when he was playing at Lake Lanier. Always knew he would would be huge. He’s a kind man and a great Georgia man southern til the day he’s gone. Love, love him.
Thank u for the beautiful music, my dad loved u guys, he passed away 10 years ago so when I want to feel close to my dad I listen to u guys.... again thank u❤️
☺️ thank u for getting back to me, it means the world to me, u guys r one of the beautiful memories my dad gave me and I cherish each song.. is this a fan club or the band page?
The foundation album has always been a big part of my life. My dad bought the cd at Sams club and I played travel soccer. We would listen to the album front to back everywhere we went. I know the whole album word for word. Now it is so nostalgic.
everytime I watch this video, or listen on the radio, it brings tears to my eyes thinking about how much I love my wife and where we want to be traveling around after nearly 23 years of marriage, 2 kids and wind up on a beach somewhere retired.....what a great song
Into the Mystic has long been my favorite Van Morrison song, but paired with Free has given it new life and dimension. Zac's voice and the harmonies, along with the beauty of the fiddle has turned an already lovely song into a masterpiece. 🎶🎻
Everything you said is sooo true!! I get sooo impressed at how smooth he goes from "Free" to "Into the Mystic!" It sounds great and almost like they should have always been together for one song. I listen to this song 5 to 7 times every day for the past month!!
Not only is it an amazingly written and beautifully performed song but this video clearly shows how much passion and love the artists have for music and talents ❤🎉
My sister and I would sing this song every time we went to grandma's up in the high mountains and clouds! Great memories! God bless you and your family ✝️
Thanks for the compliments,its not as easy as the world think it is.Die hard fans like you are the reason why we keep moving.thank you so much for your love and support I appreciate you God bless you more stay safe Zac brown band cares ❤️❤️
Carrying me away from the what is happening in our world today. Lose yourself in this beautiful music with so much talent, transition into my favorite song Into the Mystic masterfully 💓
It reminds me why I walked away from "more" money to instead semi-retire to spend more time with my boys. Just watching them grow up, play ball, and be a dad. Free
I was fortunate enough to have a father just like you. It will take your kids a while, but in time they’ll understand how much of an impact you will have had on their lives.
Ive done the same thing for the last 3 years, no better investment to make. I wanted my son’s memory of me to not be that i worked a lot like my dad and his dad before him.
I thank God every day for the life I live, “FREE”…. this song brings out so much emotion, there’s more to life than money, I have been blessed, I lost my son 11 years ago and miss him more than I can express. Now I spend a lot of time with my grandson who was born the same year my son passed 🙏
@@maniklep2560 sure, just do not get anywhere near his property in Alaska even though it's right next to public land. This guy is two faced and no longer worth a penny of my money.
You know how I got into this band- Dave Grohl was on 60 minutes and did a segment or promoted it; anyway he said check them out. I did that was 2012 or 13, seen them 3 times each time better than the last.
For my husband and I this was 'our song'. We sold everything and bought a sailboat. We were able to sail around the Caribbean for four years but unfortunately he died 9/4/23. This was the one song I wanted played at his memorial. I can't hear it without crying but it means so much to me.
Sorry for your loss. My wife died 4 years ago with 49. Every minute every day in my mind. I love to hear music we loved. I love to hear music I know she would love. Music and tears are like a cleaning thunderstorm. Die Erinnerung, sie bleibt immer jung! ❤

My day is gonna be coming soon; how does anyone handle saying goodbye
You know what I did this. Lost my marine. Lived in a azdesssrt. Still stiilll cry yrs later. I hear you. I feel you. And as well our song toooooooo
My wife and I are about to embark on the same journey. My condolances to you. Such an empowering song.
I walked away from my whole entire life to take care of my Dad for 5-6 years. Best thing I ever did. I’d drive him around and play his favorite music, get him whatever food he wanted "usually Whataburger”, and we’d just enjoy the time together. I will never take that back. I got years back in time that in time many will understand. Tucked him into bed every night and told him I love you Dad.
That is so fabulous, I remember some very similar joys!
I did the same thing for my mom and dad before they each passed. Sacred times🙌💖🙏✨️
Did that for my Dad and now my Mom for the past 5 years. I understand.
I did same for my mom, moved from Florida back to hometown indiana....13 yrs now...moms long gone 7 yrs as is a sister, but I did the right thing
Time is so precious . I know your heart is full .
My husband played into the Mystic as i walked down the isle to marry him.. these two songs are beautiful together and they should play it at our funerals. Our lives have been described bythese songs. 35 yrs later..we're still goin strong. ❤
Agree with you, babe. This Song relaxed me so much back in the early seventies.
🙌❤️❤️❤️😊
My daughter and I did the father/daughter dance and she had me choose the song. I chose Into the Mystic. One of the great moments of my life.
I’m with you sister . We have 34 June 2nd.

😢 So sorry for your loss. That is a perfect song for many couples. You will see her again. 🙏
Sorry for your loss sir
She's only sleeping, watching and waiting for you! But never before your time! 🙂🙏🏽❤
Oh my heart. Be still. 😢
Whoever decided to put these two songs together is a genius. I absolutely love this💜💜💜💜
Problem is they just destroyed "Into the Mystic". Absolutely 100% destroyed it.

XThis is my song for the love of my life and I in the 70's. He was killed in an accident 2 months after he asked me to marry him. We had been together, 24/7 for those 7 years, FREE AS WE'LL EVER BE! That was 44 years ago. Always in my heart and in my soul. Thank you Zac Brown Band! I'm 69, alone, and this song, and your voice singing it, brings my heart to life! 💫💖💫
Stay strong. Having a love like that is something to be proud of. I hope your life turned out good.
❤
Oh my goodness. prayers and blessings for you
I played Van Morrison's version @ my late Navy Chiefs funeral!
It's been 20 years! I attended Kenny Chessney and Zack Brown concert yesterday!
When this was played! I felt my sweet husband was Free and So Am I !
Love! Never dies! Life is a true gift!! 🕊️🕊️🕊️💓
It used to be my wife’s favorite 😢
Good. Texas. Bueno. Fight. United. Good. ❤

Amen
May you go into overtime. Pro Patria brother.
Me too!
Thank you for your service, brother.
Thanks for serving
Played this song for my daddy when he was passing in the hospital. He loves this version. Many of time on the lake, cruising in the boat trying to wet a line. He was a simple man that changed so many lives. He is free now and I am reminded that one day I will be too. Love you daddy ❤️
RIP..❤
FREE! 🫡❤️
May he forever be FREE in eternal rest and peace ❤
Beautiful tribute.
The most moving song ever!
This is the song we played while my dad passed away. Always amazing and beautiful. Thank you for being the lullaby into my dad’s eternal slumber.
God bless your Dad.
This was one of my husband's and my favorite songs, especially when we were traveling. I had my son play it as well when my husband was dying from liver cancer.

Love this 🥰
One of the greatest mixes I have ever heard in my life, I am in envy of anyone who has a partner that emulates this sentiment!!
Van Morrison version was one of my favorite songs. This blew me away. I listen to this almost daily
I love Van Morrison as well and was blown away as well! Epic❤
And the Violin
I think american coutry singers have that special quality voice and the musicians are magic. From an Irish admirer x
Y3s sure am
The history oozes from every note. We were the ones who fought to be free.
Thanks Van the Man Morrison for writing INTO THE MYSTIC and thanks Zac Brown Band for this amazing cover!

This song is so romantic. It reminds me of warm breezes and camping under the stars. Growing up without much money, can be majical.
Sometimes music speaks what you feel inside. The late 70s 80s were the best many great memories. This music takes me back when things made sense. Great music.this kind of music keeps your mind good.music for Life. Still here 2024!!!!

@@matthayne99I'm persuaded. looks like I'm off the states. Falling victim to peer pressure doesn't always have be negative. 😄
Two of my favorite songs combined, no one sings Van Morrison better. GREAT
Colin James does this very well.

Magical, awesome music. Van Morrison, a favorite. The two songs bring it all together.

@@karlcherry hello
@@karlcherry❤
A beautiful, soulful, brilliant arrangement. So good. Wonderful. Thankyou.
When I go through tough times, I always go back to country music
Music.Long.drives.
Does anybody realize how great these guys are!
From the first time I heard them I was hooked. I bought their albums and a record player. Love them!
Transitions song to song. Dam that's good.
Jamie: Yeah, pretty much everyone who's commenting on here.
He’ll yea
Every member of their band is an incredibly talented musician
Zac Brown is one of the very best at whatever he chooses to do. So much talent.
Who's still around chillin to this great tune.2024. Tequila time anyone else!
The intro on the violin is just amazingly ethereal in its beauty.
Q The player is the definition of an "Old Pro" who has mastered the craft.
Hello Maria how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
Agreed. Drawz yer soul in
When you are drawn into a masterpiece by the violinist! Epic!
If you close your eyes that intro sounds like bagpipes in the Scottish Highlands.
Free I retired at age 47 so I could enjoy life. I’ve had friends who worked till age 70 and die a month later. This music reminds you to stop and see what’s real. Keep Jamming and I will keep listening. ☮️
AMEN
if I could stop working today would. 59 and a slave to the system.
I never thought I could tolerate anyone but Sir Van singing this. I was oh so wrong. This is fabulous❣️
"Sir Van" is not a nice guy. Talented, but a jerk. I hated country music but loved Chris Stapleton when I heard him sing The National Anthem so I've been looking for alternative country since then. And this is alternative country. Zach Bryan, Jelly Roll...
Zac brown is one of the most underrated acoustic players living. Can’t get enough of watching him
Underrated guitar player period 👍🍻🇺🇸
TaylorSheridan sure thinks highly of him
This whole thing gave me chills all over my body! I couldn't agree more.
All the band members are excellent!❤

15 years ago this song told me all that matters and it’s still true
Saw Van Morrison in Hollywood back in the late 60s. Small club about 50 people. Just a beautiful memory I was about 22 years old. God what a great evening and date that was.
St. Paul's United Methodist Church Pine Grove WV Wetzel County Corpus Christi Parish Wheeling WV Ohio County. Heres to you and Van Morrison.
My daughter’s wedding song was Into the Mystic. Perfect for what turned into a wonderful mystical family. This blending with Free and the band’s performance is perfect.
Hi👋
My son and I danced to Into the Mystic since before he could walk. Now at 20 he towers over me. My son is 6'5 now and we still dance to it. I made him promise that this song would be the music for our mother son dance when he gets married. ❤❤
Perfect
Hello Joan how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
I love this song amazing sounds beautiful memory. How are you Joan ?
18 months since my husband passed away after an automobile accident. He was only 57. He ❤ this song. It was played at his memorial service. I've listened to this song so many to count. I ❤ Van Morrison, what a great song writer. Zac Brown is absolutely gorgeous 😢💔
I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how you feel.
@@robertford.spendmonthshere1667 Thank you❤️❤️
The thing that amazes me about this video ? The amazing transition between free and into the mystic then back to free ! A classy band that seems flawless ! Thank you for sharing your talents with the world !
This song fills my soul - I feel the words, instruments working its way through me - in my car with the wind blowing my hair, I sing (poorly) at the top of my lungs. Keep making these beautiful songs that let us float with the melody 🥰
Hello lovely lady Susan ; nobody sings "poorly" , but from the soul comes angelic voices... Sing on Susan💖!
Hello thanks for being a fan,much love❤️❤️
Thank you for your reply so far, I really appreciate your care and support my friend.
I feel it too! Love this band!!!! 🥰
You can’t possibly sing worst than this version.
My son & I used to do the same thing with the windows down he knew every word & he was 5.
Absolutely AMAZING FREAKING COMPILATION! This makes an amazing song that brings back sweet memories! Van Morrison’s “Into the Mystic” was an amazing choice and Zac and the gang hit a HOMERUN with this one!
The only band I will absolutely see every single time they come to town no matter what. They sound even better live.
Goosebumps
My goodness, the start of this song with the violinist is absolutely breathtaking to me!!! I love music 🎶 🎵
Wow, some of his greatest songs, too. I love it so very much. Speaks to my very soul!!!
This song goes through may head as me and my wife travel around the USA in our van.
My hubs and I did the same for 3 years. He passed away. This song holds the best memories ❤❤❤
You really can't know yourself until you listen to songs like this, hell yeah, I give it a 10.
Perfect ✌🏻
Second that
I never heard of van Morrison until they done this
Absolutely agree. Takes my soul other places
713 dislikes? Each to their own I guess?🙄
OMG! Love this
I have listened to this on repeat for the last 4 years. so many things attached to this song.
The guy on the violin knocks it out of the ballpark!
I used to play with a great American violin player / great friend in Chengdu, China… I returned in January 2022, but he is stuck there because he overstayed his work visa, and they are prosecuting him😢. I listen to this man play, and pray for the day Brian and I can jam together again.
So amazing!!!!
He sure does
Incredible sound.
I agree!!!
This is what I want before I take my last breath. This song sets me free
The first time I heard this song, I was driving my 28ft RV with snow around the mountains & for the first time I felt FREE to be the woman I wanted to be!
@@tsnc9 that sounds like heaven! Something I've always wanted to do. Top of my bucket list! Safe travels and God bless you
This makes me cry
You are not alone
I truly can't explain how these two songs move my soul...so many beautiful memories that I've tried to forget... but these songs bring all that love I had for him back ❤
This song touches my soul !!!! That fiddle & zac’s singin is spot on
I think it’s a viola
Mine too I love Zach brown band
I’ve watched this a few times and I always smile through the whole thing. I’ve watched it for years on UA-cam and he always speaks so lovingly about his wife and family as does link. Keep the good music coming james and the shame
This song reminds me of my daughter that I lost 2 months ago. She was such a free spirit in life. She always help other people and love her dogs. I miss her so much I will always love her.
😢☘️🎶🎵sorry for your loss...🙏💔
My prayers will be with you and your loved one another star in the sky now is brighter blessings from a humble marine from Norco California.
Vires et Honestas sir. Sorry for your loss
❤️
I’ve had one hell of ride in life I’m only 22 I listen to this every morning to remind my self the blessing I have to live in this country. I try not to dwell on my past hardships I know others have had it rougher even though it seemed my homelessness, in and out of juvenile, and much more was a never ending cycle. But life’s good and God is good I’m here today that’s what matters! Finally starting my career tomorrow not much stress anymore got a beautiful family and soon to be wife. This me my honeys song we grab a drink and just watch that tide come in and out! Anyone who reads this remember there’s light at the end of the tunnel life’s a bitch but take a deep look into what’s important what really matters and that will pick you up! 🇺🇸🇨🇱
Right on brother!
I’m 25 and I have to still keep telling myself this every morning. God bless! I’m from South Georgia and we always say “It’s gone rain hard before the sun shines bright.” Hard times will come just like the seasons of the year but you got to plant yourself like a tree and tell others to grab a branch and f themselves with it.
@@fredmccubbin2644 Thank you man!
@@rhettdale7027 Yes I agree man. I always say mind over matter!
God's grace is sufficient for everyone. So happy to hear you are headed in the right direction. Keep the faith.
That fiddle intro causes tears to well up every single time. What a mournful but beautiful sound.
Truly
Holy crap!! This is insane!
If EVER there was a smooth transition from one song to another…then THIS is IT! Fucking legend!!!
Awww what a voice and great song. It makes me tear up😢. ❤ keep singing Zac Brown
I play this song on loop. I'll be 72 march 28. I am rich beyond your wildest dreams. I started out from a small rural town in ky. At 18 I started hitchhiking and have been to many countries but of all the places I've been to and all the beautiful people I have met lovers I've had sunsets I've watched the sun coming up while listening to the ocean beat against the shore lying naked in the sand. Hitching a ride to boulder and walking up on past Estes park into the mountains. It was springtime and the bite of winter blew hard at nite while the sun was almost hot during the day. I found a small cave by a stream way up high snow still cover the earth. I put an old army blanket over the entrance while watching the fire I'd made jump around and listened to the wind howl thru the trees. I had a child at 26 and raised him the best I could. He has his doctorate in law and doesn't speak to me he says for self preservation. I was so in love with that little boy and gave him the world but it was my world not his. Our children are from us not of us. Was so heartbreaking. I will always remember him as my little boy and I moved on living in my old jeep with my boxer the love of my life. I've seen the world and I've seen our county change. Kids today don't have a clue what the word free means but I do and I would die to save this dirt that i love from sea to the mountains to the ocean shores. May God help us keep her. Thank you zb for making my heart sing and remember what life has been about for this old woman with such a young heart!!
That was so beautiful.... There is something I have to ask you though...
How did you avoid getting sand-burn on your "down-under" region when you were doing it on the beach???
@@jamieingels1190 when you are experiencing living and loving with all your senses, while sharing something so profound and beautiful, did it really matter?
Talk to your son, don't leave anything unsaid, forgive each other for anything and everything. As Jimmy Buffett once wrote in a lyric, "Life is short, call now"
You describe my life. I too began journeying via foot and thumb at a young age. At sixty four, I am still at it. Society tells you how you should proceed through life, I chose a different path. I decided that I would go to the mountain and climb it, rather than wait until all that I could do was come back with a T-shirt that said that I had been there.
Your life, is a personal choice. It is no others to make for you. I chose, to be a collector of experiences, and though at times, it has been hard, I wouldn’t change a single thing.
Love ya Sister!
💫Amen💫
For many years I had a very successful security company in Canada. Over the years we performed our service for most of the big name performer. Elton John, Willie, Burton, Melissa, etc.
I treated my 15 year old daughter and 96 years mother to a Zac Brow concert at Rogers centre in Toronto Canada. The band was on the money and the crowd really appreciated them. Being a musician so did I but when they came back out for their encore they each chose a song they wanted to perform, It was so moving I was in tears. Every song they chose sounded like the original band that made the songs famous. Collectively, as musicians these gentleman are as good as any I have ever heard. Thank you band!!!!!
Man been there seen many bands over the years but the great ones are on the verge of spiritual
Very good reply Paul!
Hello from a fellow canuck..what a great story..you took me along like a welcome guest..thanks eh…🇨🇦..
Favorite video of ZBB. That violin is so smooth. This entire band is underrated. Brilliant.
Hello Rebecca, how are you doing?
Still makes me cry. A wonderful combination of my favorite original song, and my mum's favorite Van Morrison song by my favorite singer/band. I believe it was Eric Church who said music has a unique ability to marry a melodie to a memory but none could ever do it better than this
Zac Brown…..the most talented man with the greatest band….y’all have such a GIFT FROM GOD…THE BEST CONCERT I EVER WENT TO…..can’t wait for more concerts in Columbus Ga…I love y’all and love your beard trimmed….hugs carolyn ratliff. (Dune buggy’s mom)
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support❤️🎸
One of my very favorite songs ever. ❤…ever ❤
Its' astonishing how well these two songs cozy up to one another. Zac and the boys - always thinking
One of my favorite songs EVER WRITTEN!! There is something so magical about this band and the only way I can try to explain it is treat yourself and go see this band LIVE!!
Seems that this is a Van Morrison song with Free added to his original lyrics.
One of the best country songs ever! You can see the emotion in each band member! You know it’s a powerful and meaningful song when the members of the band are playing and singing with their eyes closed!
I agree with you, what a wonderful song it is, a melody that reaches the soul and sensitizes the deepest part of the being, it is beautiful, from Venezuela
A fantastic song as you’ve said but it is a Cover of Van Morrison’s song
I love Van Morrison... I wasn't sure when I clicked... this is sooo beautiful. I love this style of country to this song. 🤩
I lived this song. We were just like the lyrics. What a magical 8 years. Take nothing for granted. Never say never.
Thanks, Ben.
Hello Audrey 👋
What a sweet thing to say. 😉
Hi👋
I was 10 years old when Van Morrison came out with “Into the Mystic” back in 1970. It is still, and will always be my favorite song. Y’all have done this song, amazing, justice by mashing it with your song “Free”. This will be my number one mashup. Every band member on ever instrument, absolutely phenomenal.
I was born in 1957. Did the Columbia House 12 records for a buck thing in the early 70's. I l really lucked out picking Van's Moondance album. Really appreciated Van ever since. Saw him last year in Harrisburg with Willie Nelson and Sturgill Simpson.
Amen brother!
I agree.. usually nobody can surpass or even be as good as the one who actually wrote it. Zac did that.
Same. #1 fav
We met in Ny. Mr Morrison and I
Wonderful and Thank you so much!
Knew Zac when he was playing at Lake Lanier. Always knew he would would be huge. He’s a kind man and a great Georgia man southern til the day he’s gone. Love, love him.
Thank u for the beautiful music, my dad loved u guys, he passed away 10 years ago so when I want to feel close to my dad I listen to u guys.... again thank u❤️
☺️ thank u for getting back to me, it means the world to me, u guys r one of the beautiful memories my dad gave me and I cherish each song.. is this a fan club or the band page?
@@The_Real_Twiztid_Buttons it’s a scam, don’t contact them. There’s these random accounts on lots of artists page. They just joined a few days ago.
God bless you.
@@The_Real_Twiztid_Buttons Be careful. Suspicious reply 🤔.
Dwedp
Violin steals the show! Intro OYG! and just the feel...
My Dad loved playing this whenever we have a drink together. That man could sing the hell out of into the mystic.
I enjoyed your memory.
Reminded me of my Grandpa Sidhe teaching origins of the lyric,
melody and more.
Wow, what a great memory! Thanks for sharing!
That is really cool! You will never forget those times.
COOL 💯🤘
Just learning to live at 50 ......
This song is by far my favorite it’s so spiritual to me especially the violin and being an Irish girl born in Massachusetts it’s mystic
Hop we’re here for you for the long haul 😘
I am from Scituate and now in Houston and Into the Mystic brings me back.
The foundation album has always been a big part of my life. My dad bought the cd at Sams club and I played travel soccer. We would listen to the album front to back everywhere we went. I know the whole album word for word. Now it is so nostalgic.
everytime I watch this video, or listen on the radio, it brings tears to my eyes thinking about how much I love my wife and where we want to be traveling around after nearly 23 years of marriage, 2 kids and wind up on a beach somewhere retired.....what a great song
Soooo I'm not the only one.
@@stevenchurney2416 nope
Into the Mystic has long been my favorite Van Morrison song, but paired with Free has given it new life and dimension. Zac's voice and the harmonies, along with the beauty of the fiddle has turned an already lovely song into a masterpiece. 🎶🎻
Everything you said is sooo true!! I get sooo impressed at how smooth he goes from "Free" to "Into the Mystic!" It sounds great and almost like they should have always been together for one song. I listen to this song 5 to 7 times every day for the past month!!
Such a beautiful rendition oftwo st that are perfect too maze together!
Oh, I remember Van Morrison in the 70’s and the Zac Brown band nailed it!
I loved Van Morrison’s version as it is one of my faves. Wow! Zac Brown brings it home.
I'm floating into a traveling cloud of pure serenity with a man that takes my hand of this gypsy soul girl
That’s deep sure it’s not the weed?…No judgements here.
Not only is it an amazingly written and beautifully performed song but this video clearly shows how much passion and love the artists have for music and talents ❤🎉
Such a great performance! Awesome band and tribute to one of the best songs ever written ❤
My sister and I would sing this song every time we went to grandma's up in the high mountains and clouds! Great memories! God bless you and your family ✝️
I love comments like this... God blessed ya Angel... JusSayin...
Thanks for the compliments,its not as easy as the world think it is.Die hard fans like you are the reason why we keep moving.thank you so much for your love and support I appreciate you
God bless you more stay safe
Zac brown band cares ❤️❤️

Un predicated song for Jimmy B... RIP Jimmy your flying high now.😊
Carrying me away from the what is happening in our world today. Lose yourself in this beautiful music with so much talent, transition into my favorite song Into the Mystic masterfully 💓
Thanks for complimenting on my page, I never knew our song still touches the heart of many, i hope you never stop listening to my music?
It reminds me why I walked away from "more" money to instead semi-retire to spend more time with my boys. Just watching them grow up, play ball, and be a dad. Free
I was fortunate enough to have a father just like you. It will take your kids a while, but in time they’ll understand how much of an impact you will have had on their lives.
Love reading that and kudos to you! Continue to be a positive influential father! I grew up without a father and now I love being one to my son!
Hey! Wishing you beautiful years!
Ive done the same thing for the last 3 years, no better investment to make. I wanted my son’s memory of me to not be that i worked a lot like my dad and his dad before him.
Yes now you are free in the greatest way ever my friend .
I thank God every day for the life I live, “FREE”…. this song brings out so much emotion, there’s more to life than money, I have been blessed, I lost my son 11 years ago and miss him more than I can express. Now I spend a lot of time with my grandson who was born the same year my son passed 🙏
This group is ridiculously talented
They have grown in spirit and truth together, doesn't get better than that
agree !
@@maniklep2560 sure, just do not get anywhere near his property in Alaska even though it's right next to public land.
This guy is two faced and no longer worth a penny of my money.
“all we need is love/free as we’ve ever been”
Gorgeous brilliant beautiful!
And to think he added Jamey Johnson and Marcus King to Stubborn Pride. Wow.
Aw, damn it guys, this...this!! Tears falling upon how well this was done, honoring Van Morrison...ripped my heart. Beautiful and bold, thank you Zac.
You know how I got into this band- Dave Grohl was on 60 minutes and did a segment or promoted it; anyway he said check them out. I did that was 2012 or 13, seen them 3 times each time better than the last.
You stole my words♥️♥️
