    This is just an astounding song on every level...and not the least of which is this live-mix...clean as clean can be...everything perfect, especially the main vocal...Jesus, these guys are great!

    It's 12 years later and I'm still here, even more-so present as I say goodbye to a 13 year relationship. My favourite punch brothers song... it's so beautiful.

    Woke up this morning to this being an earworm in my head. Couldn't remember the lyrics so I had to go through almost every fave on my Spotify list to find it. It's coincidentally named "This Is the Song" Lol!
    I never made a mental note of liking it beyond a thumbs-up back then. But somehow the tune swam to the top of my brain.
    It turns out these really are trying times. We'll get by.

    OMG...I have one leg and Irritable Bowel Disorder "IBD". Whilst listening to Prairie Home Companion and taking a most glorious crap, I came across this song and the tune seemed to resonate from the bowl. The melody, combined with my natural intestinal harmony, and the pure lyrical accompaniment, reminded me of my parent's divorce. Then I realized that this song was written just for ME. Good luck, these are tough times, mates.

    There's no need for luck when you've come prepared, but a well wish always settles well in the cockles of the heart. This is the song that conveys that feeling to me, a simple yet solid ballad to be sure!

    Heard this yesterday on WUMB Radio (Boston, MA), on the way to work. Searched it on UA-cam when I got home and gave it another listen. Listened to it again, and actually began to cry. Such a beautiful sound. Not sure where the tears came from, but I guess they needed to come out. These are tough times. Good luck. Peace.

      You're not alone. Was at the gym, sitting at a piece of weight equipment. My wife had passed away the previous year and something in the lyric struck me and I sat there and cried. People must've thought I was nuts.

    I heard this song in the background of a story American Idol was doing on Kristine Osorio and thought...."that sounds like Nickel Creek". Love this song and I am now a big fan of the Punch Brothers. Thank you for your music, mandolin, lyrics, voice and, as always, continued quality in all your work.

    no, it was the bass playing. He used his bow for part of the song. He was playing high on his G string.

    Actually that's the bass that came in first--you can't see him, because the fiddler's standing in the way. You can tell because the bassist puts his hand way up high on his highest string to play a really kind of throaty high note just before the fiddler steps into view. Just had to come to the defense of PB's honor!
