    I've watched this so many times over the last seven years. Every time it still feels like slipping into a familiar, comfy pair of pajamas. The soul soothing it offers is priceless. Thank you so much for posting this here for those of us who keep returning time after time.

    My biggest fear if I were a musician would be The Avett Brothers covering one of my songs and revealing to the rest of the world just how much potential the original song held...

    There's no Avett version on CD. Jessica Lea Mayfield a.k.a. Chittlin', wrote it at age 15. It's on her 2005 self-released CD "White Lies". I've got a few but you ain't gettin' 'em. BUT you can buy the full 10-song album on iTunes listed under her nickname Chittlin'. The same first version is on the 5-song EP "White Lies" the record company released. Her second version, slower and with Dan Auerbach playing xylophone of all things on it, is on her CD "With Blasphemy So Heartfelt". Get version 1
