i love everything about Mumford and Sons! I love the style, the tunes, the lyrics, the look, all the members- Marcus Mumfords voice is amazing - i love it!
I saw these guys recently in concert at the Berkeley Greek theatre..EPIC. They gave an amazing show with an incredible encore where they all came out and formed a tight circle and sang beautifully. They were fun, enchanting and awesome. The audience laughed, cried, swayed and danced together. Amazing.
TheAyeAye1 For sure. Their best stuff is found on RUclips, not their studio work. Their latest is just depressing. Makes this stuff so much more incredible.
+reints74 I have to disagree. I do absolutely love their original sound, it's the main reason why I fell in love with this band. been obsessed with them since 2011. However since they've gone electric for an album I think they've done an equally phenomenal job. They've maneuvered their sound into something harder but still great. Reminds me of the way Bob Dylan shifted to electric and many people were upset. Yes, the rootsy feel of their music has been tuned down a bit, but their energy, passion, and establishment of emotion is still present in their music. I find it quite interesting. I hope their next album is a combo or mixed feel of this and what they are now.
+Nick Fernandez To each their own. I liked Dylan's electric stuff better than his purely acoustic stuff. Their new stuff just sounds like like Coldplay to me. They seen like decent folks, and they aren't obliged to please anyone but themselves. Here's seconding your wish for something that's a mix next time.
I absolutely love this. It is amazing. They have so much soul to their music and they are truly blessed by God. "You were made to meet your maker." I love love LOVE that.
Its just so awesome that they "feel" the music that they play. Ya know? Like.... they arent just bopping thier heads along to the beat, but they FEEL it! Like it's .... it's just ...(insert word that would even begin to describe how awesome they are here)
this piece has the same effect on me brother ...time to time i get back to this and i cry and i feel free and pleased and happy again .... but then all their songs are great .... the cave , little lion man and bellow my feet but they allway awakened my soul ...
Ben is the greatest. Though he's completely into the music, he can appreciate his surroundings. His smile when he hears the dogs. . . I've never seen anything so genuine. Amazing performance from all of them.
Saw them in knoxville at the valarium and it was the best live show i have ever been to. the crowd and band united ina weird way and everyone there had so much fun! not to mention ole jerry douglas was there with them and cadillac sky!
I Love it how these guys dont need some recording studio to hide in and that they can go anywhere and just play. AND they still enjoy it. Thats boss if iv ever seen it.
Thank you very much Tripwire for posting this. What a fantastic live video ! Awake My Soul has become one of my favourite records of all time. To mark Marcus Mumford's birthday I shall be posting your video on my facebook page on January 31st. If you want to verify this I can be found on fb under the name of Stephen Charles Barnes.
in these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die, but where you invest your love you invest your life. most epic lines ive heard in a song so far. :)
Dude I don't think he did, I bet they wanted to perform in a backyard and liked this one, and i think it is a fantastic idea and this ia the perfect backyard, good job for everyone involved for making it possibleand thank you. This is a true band that gives back to the fans, The last true band, the last true hope rests with them...
I think this has to be my favorite!!! I keep coming back to this!!!!!!! Then when I was listening to "The Cave" I thought, mm Maybe this is my favorite but then?? No "Awake My Soul" It says it all!!

I dont get it when people say mumford and sons are boring, the emotion in their songs as well as their musical talent is just breath taking
I love Marcus, but the smile on Ben's face when the dogs started to howl is the most beautiful smile I've ever seen
The amount of money I would be willing to pay to have these guys pay in my backyard is ridiculous.
500k-1m usd
All the money!!!!!
The way Ben closes his eyes and feels the music. It is beautiful.
1:06 his smile when the dogs started making noise, adorable!

Still slaps 11 years later

Lord of Hosts. I really hope they come back to this style. If they don't, I'm still glad they recorded two discs like this in the first place

Ej Garza yup.
I'm saddened, because I viewed them as the one band that would never do exactly what they did.
personaly i love Wilder Mind, i know there is no banjo, there is drums for everysong. a mix of both styles, i would like to see that.
I absolutely love this. It is amazing. They have so much soul to their music and they are truly blessed by God. "You were made to meet your maker." I love love LOVE that.
It's nice to see a band that can play a song in their backyard with nothing but their instruments and their voices and achieve a "studio sound". :)
"Where you invest your love, you invest your life...."
-so true.
this mix is beautiful for acoustic, so amazing
This is the only song that brings me to tears. Tears of joy. Thank you
The best rendition of this song....LOVE IT.
this songs completes my happiness sometimes :)
Amen.
Amazing vocals in this performance!
Sound the same live as they do on videos. Thats what I love about them 🥰
Love Ben's relaxed attitude and easy smile when the dog starts howling!!!!!
just makes you feel all warm inside >w
Its just so awesome that they "feel" the music that they play. Ya know? Like.... they arent just bopping thier heads along to the beat, but they FEEL it! Like it's .... it's just ...(insert word that would even begin to describe how awesome they are here)
What do I have to do to get Mumford and Sons to play in my backyard?
You could lie and say you have a show like this xD I'd do it.
this piece has the same effect on me brother ...time to time i get back to this and i cry and i feel free and pleased and happy again .... but then all their songs are great .... the cave , little lion man and bellow my feet but they allway awakened my soul ...
it truly doesn't get any better then this. this is real music.
Ben is the greatest. Though he's completely into the music, he can appreciate his surroundings. His smile when he hears the dogs. . . I've never seen anything so genuine. Amazing performance from all of them.
Simply beautiful and amazing!!!!!!!

I Love it how these guys dont need some recording studio to hide in and that they can go anywhere and just play.
AND they still enjoy it. Thats boss if iv ever seen it.
I love the dogs contribution to this song and that they didn't edit it out!
Guitar, Singing, and then adding a tambourine on the off beat. So amazing
Love it - raw talent (and the dogs were nearly in tune too!)

This is a true band that gives back to the fans, The last true band, the last true hope rests with them...
one of my favorite running songs back in hs...lol...i would sprint right at the climax of the song.
Where are the microphones? This sound quality is so great - sounds like a sound studio to me. but it's outside! Awesome!
Real music always lives on.
i love these guys! they are so unique.
it reminds me of the time id listen to my dad play in his room i miss those times
The best version. Period.

So brilliant!
Oh my god that was AWESOME!
F'ing awesome. Real music is back.
