I have drifted into a rabbit hole of Seth Avett covers. I never though I'd be singing a Beyonce song for days. Love this one. I'd love to see an album someday.
Jessi Buck ima a male and Seth HAS sung to me🙂, collapsed on me during a solo- he must not of remembered I have a failed spine😂😂 just watched NSofThankful at 16 roses in ‘05 the Mingonette years, my personal favorite time seeing the boys- 3 men a pick in’- Seth’s come so damn far
While i enjoy Beyonce's original this just is so amazing and the simplicity and rawness of this version touches my soul so much mooooooore - Seth you have the best HALO ever!!!!
This proves that even a cookie cutter manufactured pop song can become a worthwhile listen. Just add some passion, talent, and sincerity. Love The Avett Brothers.
Jriss, I love this version, but if you're trying to say Beyonce's version didn't have any passion, talent or sincerity I don't think you've actually listened to it objectively.
Wow, as a fan of both the Avett Bros. And Beyoncé, it’s kind of astounding that the Avett Bros fans are so rude. Instead of bashing the source material, maybe you all could appreciate the fact that Seth actually liked the song enough to cover it in the first place?? Expand your horizons a little. Geez. People find influences from everywhere.
Rich Hadfield lol perhaps i could. it’s still irritating, but you make a good point. Both versions are beautiful and that’s more important. Seth did a lovely job.
Avett fans weren’t always like this I promise hell- no one hadda clue who they were when I 1st saw em.. they didn’t know themselves yet- glad Rubin still lets them have some creativity in their original form.
Expand our horizons? Funny choice of words since she is easily the most popular artist of today. She didn't even write this song. The dude from OneRepublic did. It's not rude to prefer a heartfelt version or to prefer true musicians
Jessica Knox This comment has been stuck in my head for a long time and I think about it from time to time. Especially when I'm trying to hit a high note.
Jake Tomberlin mine too I’ve seen Seth do some amazing covers but that “hit me like a ray of sun” is something yer born w/. Idk I could hit that before my vocal chord got nicked- TABs are special been following em since ‘02-3 I miss the screams but damn they’re good
I've never heard the Beyonce version.. I don't listen to much radio ;) but I'm pretty sure this is exactly how the song should be. Simple and beautiful. I love this is so much.
Joe Kwon is the unsung hero of this cover (all due respect to Seth's remarkable talents).
ShelbyLynnD very tru doesn't sound the same without the cello
He did well on the "it's the beaches" song too.
He is the unsung hero of all the Avetts
He's a cellist... he's signed up to be an unsung hero...
Joe and Bob are the backbone of the Avetts.
Scott and Seth are beyond amazing.
But what makes them what they are are
those 2.

Everything that comes out of this man's mouth is magic.
Seth avett is one of the most talented people in music along with Scott avett. This is simply amazing
Dear Voice of Seth,
You're everything I need & more....think I'm addicted to your light....just magical
Melting like butter over here... his voice... wooooooooo...
Seth cures all ailments. Love him so much...
WHY AM I JUST NOW DISCOVERING THIS?! Crying tears of joy!
I love them so much.
I have very explicit words to say about this cover, but only in the most positive way. My goodness. If perfection was a video, this would be it.
and Joe! Beautiful!
That was so great my heart broke a little and I LOVED IT
they do the same thing to me, it hurts and feels so good at the same time.
Seth has such a raw beautiful feel to his voice. I love this song and he makes it even more beautiful!
This is the best thing I've ever seen because Seth and Beyonce are both perfect.
The pure emotion is priceless... Seth pulled this from a spot deep inside!
actual dream come true.
Sethyoncé

Good time growing up with Seth in the early 90s the old band pratices of Margo the good ole days glad to see they made it. Love you guys keep it up.
This is beauty. This could've been a Avett original.
Seth can sing this to me every morning, please and thank you.

Also got serenaded by Langhorne Slim sometimes my light shines real bright- I know they feel my energy and 💚 or I’m blessed that way curse physically
So beautiful
honesty,emotion,and depth of soul -as always from the guys
Love this version, it took me a couple of times but once I felt all of the notes I was hooked!!
I love that Seth can literally sing anytime
While i enjoy Beyonce's original this just is so amazing and the simplicity and rawness of this version touches my soul so much mooooooore - Seth you have the best HALO ever!!!!
Such a beautiful song, made even better by Mr. Seth Avett. Thank you for sharing this Joe and Seth. What a nice tune to end the day with :)
Wasn't sure of this at first, but every time I listened I enjoyed it more and more. Now I LOVE it!
Exactly what happened to me!
That's exactly how it worked for me too!
CR Merlin

I LOVE YOU SETH
A melhor versão,,, MUITO BOM.... :)
So incredibly thankful for the wonderful content put out on this Chanel for so many years
Love it!!!
Dammit man!!! Love it!
Best version ever of this song. Beyonce should feel honored that Seth Avett made her average song great.
Beyoncé, average?! Hardly!
Can't get enough of this!! SO much emotion when he sings! It's beautiful-Autumn McG
Love this song and it's never sounded better than just now.
Still listening to this in 2020
This proves that even a cookie cutter manufactured pop song can become a worthwhile listen. Just add some passion, talent, and sincerity. Love The Avett Brothers.
Jriss, I love this version, but if you're trying to say Beyonce's version didn't have any passion, talent or sincerity I don't think you've actually listened to it objectively.
This is purely awesome....
I opened this videos hoping it was the Beyoncé song. I was not disappointed.
Love this! We used this version for our first dance at our wedding.
wow! I'm blown away. I'm a fan now.
Thank you Seth! Love you always!
This is wonderful. They both blow me away
This is the greatest thing I have seen in my entire life. Thats it.
Man. So. freaking. good.
Such a range in his voice - really comes out in this song.
words can't describe how amazing this is
Ahhhhh!! He covered B. Love it.
You make every song beautiful.
There is nothing they can't sing....amazing..my favorite version
These dudes are untouchable.

Maybe you could ignore the comments and just enjoy both yourself and not worry about the ignorance of others.

Wazeltauf agreed. Beyoncé is an incredible artist. I love Avett Brothers - I’m from Charlotte, but their fans can be pretentious douchebags. For sure.
when he sang "hit me like a ray of sun"
i literally became a puddle on the floor
literally?
joe3122001 quite literally
Jessica Knox lol, hope you don't have carpet :)

Amazing! So beautiful.

Its good. Theres good stuff in the radio. No need to sound like an elitist cunt
WoW....Seth and Joe just blew my mind!!
Another great CrackerFarm vid....thanks!!
They're great at taking a song you don't like and making you like it. This is a great cover.

Nice!!!!
Beautiful lyrics as usual. Love it!
Very nice music!!! I am from Murphy and had a jam session with Uncle Wally on Martins Creek tonight. Keep up your good work!!!

Damn. This is so damn good.
all the feels
exactly how this nc boy feels about my wife and my precious baby boy!
God Damnit, Seth!
First time I have ever liked one of her songs..
Maybe he can fix other songs for us.
Maybe they can sew her mouth shut. That would fix it.
J N
HA! :)
Righteous Shrugger pu7uuooioo
J N Maybe you can take a cue from the Avett brothers, and just appreciate the music without saying something derogatory. That would fix a lot.
Righteous shrugger i want to buy you a beer
Better than the original. He owned this one. Loved it.
His voice here is unreal
