I thought for sure this was recorded in a studio (or at least some place indoors) first and then the performance was synced to a pretape, until I realized at 6:08 that they were indeed performing and recording live outdoors. So clean.
I do think it’s likely the recording is done with more mics than what is visible in the video take (or they make multiple takes and move the mics around to capture each instrument/voice more closely).
Armageddon came out in 98 when I was 18 years old. This song instantly takes me back to that time in my life, having just started dating my wife. It works well as a lullaby but I can't help but think about my lovely wife when I hear it! Thank you!
Aww, I was 21 when this song came out. I met my husband in 2001 and he used to sing this to me. We were in a long distance relationship. It always gets me right in the heart. ❤❤❤
I'm a 59-year-old man in California, and that song made me smile from beginning to end, but the outro has me crying tears of happiness. You are beautiful, Petersens. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us.
I'm 65 yr old man from San Diego. California and am hearing the Petersons for the first time right now on Cinco de Mayo, 2024, and am equally touched, and very grateful I just ran across this talented group.
Gorgeous family, wow, how beautiful. Best rendition of this classic ever, thank you for sharing your amazing talents and precious gifts 💕, hugs from New Zealand 🇳🇿
I'm 66 and really enjoy you guys. A LOT! I don't know if it's my age or the beauty of the song they way you performed it, but tears were flowing. And this isn't the first time you guys have caused this effect. I lost my baby boy in 2000. Even though he was 20, he was still my baby boy. This song reminds me of the things I missed because " work was so important." God please forgive me. I love you my sweet son.
Katie’s fiddle solos always delight us with their energy, freshness, invention, and sophisticated range of musical influences. As for Ellen’s voice, I ran out of superlatives a long time ago.
this is what I think a cover song should be. It offers a different taste from the original but still has the feel of the original piece. truly outstanding group.
Greetings from Australia. Just discovered you all about 40 minutes ago. Now, I'm enjoying everything you have online. Love this band! Beautiful family. Thank you.
Welcome!! Have you found these little beauties yet, they're a great way to get to know everyone 😊 ruclips.net/p/PLi4OplF1xLPfqt4PnmaMHWX382_fMqUE6&si=bS7-gYgPO3NoGBx4
I do NOT think it is even POSSIBLE that you could do ANY song that just didn't sound perfect....and add to that seeing you all connected not only by the music, but obviously by your hearts as well...MORE THAN PERFECT! THANK YOU!!!
Miss Macy a multi-instrumentalist. No big shock I suppose. What a doll! Really great arrangement Emmett. Y'all played so beautifully. Ellen, you sounded amazing.
Oh my goodness, you can feel the love from every one of them for the newest member! We shouldn’t be at all surprised that the baby is musically ambidextrous! You are all the purest form of beauty!
Thanks for this beautiful love song/lullaby, guys. Emmett strikes again with his arrangement and Ellen sings it very convincingly (but that doesn't really surprise me). Everyone's in great form again, but I especially enjoyed Katie's sweet violin solo this time. And then the outro, what a lovely surprise! Michael & Macy making their video debut with The Petersens. Good idea to already bring Macy into contact with those strings, you can't start young enough.😂😉 She seems to have a strong preference for the guitar though, "What do we have here? Lemme check that out."🤣🤣
Oh, that's just brilliant. Ellen is determined to get Macy learning to play all the instruments as well. Well, with all your talents, she has a head start. Best wishes from England.
We drove 360 miles to see you folks at the Franklin Theatre. Such a great show. Just so you'll know. The fiddle player is just a musical killer on that beautiful instrument. So good.
I love to dance the Viennese waltz and I love how this rendition of the song is a beautiful Viennese waltz that's the perfect tempo for dancing. Can't wait to waltz to this song in an outdoor setting similar to where this video was made! :)
Mrs. Haygoods voice is maturing very beautiful, as her family is as well in experience. What a beautiful rendition. You're all pretty darn good in what You are doing here. Love to see You live in Germany if there's a chance You all return some-when somehow.
Wow! That baby is rich already with the gold she hears on a daily basis, surrounded by some of the sweetest voices on the planet! And she has proved she is well on her way to joining the family band in that precious outro!!! 😍 Lovely rendition, with the perfect backstory (Ellen, thanks for sharing!) A beautiful way to end a beautiful spring Friday! God bless! ❤️
Adding the baby at the end was so cute. I was so distracted by the baby that I didn't notice the guest bass player the first time I watched it. Maybe he should play the bass hanging upside down so we will take notice.
The triplet rhythm is an amazing arrangement and beautifully excecuted. It takes such expert timing to accomplish that. Their talent is constantly evolving. I enjoy every video of this group!
Wonderful rendition of this song. Just beautiful. And Ellen and Michael, your baby girl is sooo cute. She’s keen to start playing bless her 😀. You guys just get better and better. Please come to the UK again soon. Blessings to you all ❤
Thank you for such a wonderful and beautiful song. I came home from the hospital today and you all made me happy and smiling for the first time in days. ❤ I wonder if you all realize how much love you give me and us all ♥️🙏❤️♥️🙏♥️
The Petersen's are still on a roll! Another song - another 100K RUclips views! This time it only took 3 days! But in all fairness, Ellen did have a little helper that may have sped things up a little! Best out take of all times! AND now I have a favorite Petersen / Aerosmith song! Great work guys!!! Congratulations Ellen!
This sounds like a sweet lullaby. By the arrangement of music its song has a love song and a lullaby. And through the song I was impressed Ellen sang like she talked to her baby gently.
That was a great performance. The vocals were wonderful; the dobro always adds a special touch; I love to hear @katiepetersen when she gets to make use of all five strings on that fiddle; and Mama, as always...pulls everything together with that wonderful sounding bass. One day, I hope to get to hear you guys play live.
Music has the extraordinary ability to heal and soothe the soul. Its harmonious melodies and captivating rhythms have a profound impact on our emotions. Music at its best, is something we feel. The Petersens are that rare breed of artists that help us feel and then help us heal.
This was a high school song for my wife and me and something we sang to all four of our kiddos when they were little too. We recently watched Armageddon with our eldest (now 14) and she remarked, "How could they take a lullaby and make it THAT kind of love song?" : )
What a lovely song. That fiddle solo was really something! Thanks for this rendition. A suggestion for another time: “Who Will Sing For Me” is a tremendously beautiful song, I especially love the recording of Earl Scruggs playing it with Doc Watson and Ricky Skaggs. I would be delighted to see a version from The Petersens.
Ha Ha Ha. Great outro. Fridays(and everything else) are always better with the Petersens. Just lovely Ellen. A beautiful cover. Our little one is reaching for the music and that's a great sign. God bless y'all
Thank you that was beautiful I missed a thing I haven't seen you in a while and you've got a lovely new newcomer congratulations on the baby I'm sure she's going to grow up with music 🎶 lovely thank you for your music Me
Your best arrangement yet. Fantastic. Love Ellen on Lead and the back up was spot on. Great song choice. I remember Amy Grant doing that with her Baby. Sweet.
Wow! You guys hit it out of the park! You made me get a little misty.🥲 great instrumental by Katie and Emmitt. Katie's haircut looks great, too. Ellen, you nailed those vocals!
hi Petersens great cover of my favorite Aerosmith song and in 3/4 time too! Special tribute to Katie who plays the most romantic fiddle i’ve ever heard. Your solos are so melodically thoughtful i can sing them like songs. I look forward to everything yall post.
Una canzone bellissima e cantata con una voce meravigliosa. Parole davvero commoventi. E alla fine quella splendida bambina. Da nonno non posso che commuovermi. Grazie ragazzi, siete straordinari come sempre.
Your music is a breath of fresh air and your voices blend so well together! Congrats on such huge success and for a beautiful new member of the family❤ I've seen you live once...and can't wait to see you all again. Thank you ❤️
You guys are so incredibly awesome! How can you listen to this and not feel a mother’s and family’s love for their little baby. Hope Emmett gets to be an honorary uncle for this arrangement!
Another wonderful cover, but in any case all your songs ( covers, originals, gospels) are amazing! I'm very happy to be one (a little) fan, rhanks for all your times spent with us! Ciao from Italy! Gianfranco!
What to say...one of the sweetest songs ever written, especially dear to the hearts of my generation, now played in the sweetest way possible and brought to new heights. I already wanted to say that I love you all, boys and girls, but then the easter egg came...and put the biggest smile on my face. My children are in their middle teens now, and I already fondly think about when they were so tender and innocent. And the way she touched the strings of both mandolin and guitar spells a lot about the fact that Music is powerful in this One :-). Love from Italy and God bless you all, especially the little angel.
I'm a musician from the UK. I never did had a family , but this is the family I would have loved to have had God Bless you xxx❤ I'd jam and pick all day with them x❤
Did you see the band are playing in London a week today (13th August at Union Chapel in Islington)? There’s a ticket link in the description if you can make it 🎉 They won’t be jamming, but there’s a meet and greet with the band beforehand for anyone who’s part of the Patreon community - which is $3/month, cancel anytime www.patreon.com/thepetersens
A Big, big, big thank you to all of you! Tears of happiness streamed from my eyes when first chords started to sound. Lovely! I have no words. Thank God for all of you. Dublin, Ireland
Awww such heartwarming scenes, I really needed this. Also this song is quite calming actually, I feel like I normally hear this at a higher... loudness i feel, with the country twang in the traditional versions. I really liked this, kudos!
*LYRICS - I Don't Want to Miss a Thing*
------------
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Where every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
Lying close to you, feeling your heart beating
And I wonder what you're dreaming
Wonder if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes
And thank God we're together
'Cause I just wanna stay with you in this moment forever
Forever and ever
I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just wanna hold you close
I feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time, yeah, yeah
I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Ellen's baby is already training to be a musician. So sweet and a wonderful family. See them every time I am in Branson. God bless you all!
As a former novice sound engineer, I am amazed at the quality of audio recording you guys pull off outdoors.
I thought for sure this was recorded in a studio (or at least some place indoors) first and then the performance was synced to a pretape, until I realized at 6:08 that they were indeed performing and recording live outdoors. So clean.
They use Ear Trumpet LDCs
@@lesbsocal9107 I checked out the website they link on their videos. Beautiful mics, amazing quality and wind rejection.
@@lesbsocal9107 LDCs? What are they?
I do think it’s likely the recording is done with more mics than what is visible in the video take (or they make multiple takes and move the mics around to capture each instrument/voice more closely).
Armageddon came out in 98 when I was 18 years old. This song instantly takes me back to that time in my life, having just started dating my wife. It works well as a lullaby but I can't help but think about my lovely wife when I hear it! Thank you!
Awww I love that!
My husband and I got married in '98 .. I remember this sweetly, too
I was 18 too! Great movie watched at cinema with my best friends.
Greetings from Napoli, Italy
I just turned 19… first movie with my first serious girlfriend… first love… bittersweet memories…
Aww, I was 21 when this song came out. I met my husband in 2001 and he used to sing this to me. We were in a long distance relationship. It always gets me right in the heart. ❤❤❤
I'm a 59-year-old man in California, and that song made me smile from beginning to end, but the outro has me crying tears of happiness. You are beautiful, Petersens. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us.
Glad you enjoyed it! We thought it would be a fun touch :)
I'm a 64 yr old man in CA. Your words are touching my heart. God bless you, friend.
Me too, just tears...
I'm 65 yr old man from San Diego. California and am hearing the Petersons for the first time right now on Cinco de Mayo, 2024, and am equally touched, and very grateful I just ran across this talented group.
Gorgeous family, wow, how beautiful. Best rendition of this classic ever, thank you for sharing your amazing talents and precious gifts 💕, hugs from New Zealand 🇳🇿
"I Don't Want to Miss ... this song", dear Petersens !
Greetings from Germany 🙋♂.
Everyone is so super but that dobro playing really is the special sauce that brings it all together.
Who says beautiful, wonderful, joyous and family, among many other good things, are gone in America? Look again. Replay it. Well done.
Well said. And those great attributes will come back stronger than ever before.
there something unique with this group , you get to feel the vibes in your skin
I'm 66 and really enjoy you guys. A LOT! I don't know if it's my age or the beauty of the song they way you performed it, but tears were flowing. And this isn't the first time you guys have caused this effect. I lost my baby boy in 2000. Even though he was 20, he was still my baby boy. This song reminds me of the things I missed because " work was so important." God please forgive me. I love you my sweet son.
Compassion for you. ❤
Fun fact: This is officially the longest (single song) video on The Petersens' channel, beating Bohemian Rhapsody by 15 seconds (4/20/24).
Beautiful! I loved the ending with husband and newborn baby. How precious. Thank you for sharing!
Katie’s fiddle solos always delight us with their energy, freshness, invention, and sophisticated range of musical influences. As for Ellen’s voice, I ran out of superlatives a long time ago.
This video perfectly expresses the tenderness and unconditional love of a mother. What a wonderful celebration of love! 🥹
Well said, Martin!
Wow. That violinist can make that instrument sing. My goodness. God bless!
Katie is an excellent fiddle player and vocalist.
this is what I think a cover song should be. It offers a different taste from the original but still has the feel of the original piece. truly outstanding group.
Who knew my 5, 3, and 1 year olds’ favorite song would be an Aerosmith song ha! But then again, any song from the Petersens is their favorite!
Greetings from Australia.
Just discovered you all about 40 minutes ago. Now, I'm enjoying everything you have online.
Love this band! Beautiful family.
Thank you.
Welcome!! Have you found these little beauties yet, they're a great way to get to know everyone 😊 ruclips.net/p/PLi4OplF1xLPfqt4PnmaMHWX382_fMqUE6&si=bS7-gYgPO3NoGBx4
Congratulation, now You have to spent 2-3 month just listening to good music. There are a lot of good stuff with them. Hello from Denmark.😀
What voice Ellen has - love to hear it unleashed in this gorgeous song. The band members compliment each other and all are so talented
God bless all mothers.
I did NOT have shamelessly weeping to an Aerosmith song on my 2024 bingo card. But then, it is the Petersens...
Absolutey amazing from the Petersens and Emmett, love this rendition of this song
That baby's a natural...give it a little time and it'll shine! Great rendition of this classic song!
The mandolin!! Great job! Keep it up... I'd love to hear more of the mandolin pickin!!!
Listening while nursing my youngest (18 months) to sleep and this got me. Where does the time go? Don’t blink mamas, the time flies by.
God unexpectedly blessed us with a 5th baby. I am so happy to be nursing again and think that I will want to hold onto this for as long as possible.❤
Same for Dads, I blinked twice and have Grandkids graduating College
I do NOT think it is even POSSIBLE that you could do ANY song that just didn't sound perfect....and add to that seeing you all connected not only by the music, but obviously by your hearts as well...MORE THAN PERFECT! THANK YOU!!!
That was a beautiful and heartwarming performance. It was so nice to see Ellen do this classic song. Also, the outro was so much fun.
Miss Macy a multi-instrumentalist. No big shock I suppose. What a doll! Really great arrangement Emmett. Y'all played so beautifully. Ellen, you sounded amazing.
The scene with Macy shows how the "baby" addressed in the lyrics could just as easily be an infant as opposed to a romantic partner.
Turns out Steven Tyler wrote it for his daughter Liv Tyler
Oh my goodness, you can feel the love from every one of them for the newest member! We shouldn’t be at all surprised that the baby is musically ambidextrous! You are all the purest form of beauty!
The outro was really surprising and no other image could be more lovely than the little Macy.... God bless the Petersens!!!
One of the sweetest outtakes ever!
wow..what and amazing performance. You warm my heart with everyone of your videos. Thank you, from Uruguay
Thanks for this beautiful love song/lullaby, guys. Emmett strikes again with his arrangement and Ellen sings it very convincingly (but that doesn't really surprise me).

Guitar..? Are you sure, Frank? But have you seen how she also grabs the mandolin? 🤣
@@Roberto-pd8vn 😂 She likes the mandolin, but she LOVES the guitar.
@@FrankvdMuijsenberg Ok, I surrender to the evidence! 🤣
Love it, Frank! 😂
@@emmajo4880 Thanks Emma. I feel a bit bad for Michael. Making his video debut with The Petersens and hardly anyone's commenting about him.😁😉
What a treat to see Michael and Macy on this video! Great job on the lead, Ellen. Excellent rendition!
Oh, that's just brilliant. Ellen is determined to get Macy learning to play all the instruments as well. Well, with all your talents, she has a head start. Best wishes from England.
They are playing at Union Chapel, London on August 13th this year. Tickets are available now via See Tickets.
We drove 360 miles to see you folks at the Franklin Theatre. Such a great show. Just so you'll know. The fiddle player is just a musical killer on that beautiful instrument. So good.
Made me cry. I've heard the original a thousand times... Never affected me like this.... Well done!!!!!!! Such beautiful music in these dark times 💓
You can do this! I believe in you
Aerosmith song sung and played by The Petersens??? simply Heavenly....sounds beyond great Family.
This song immediately brought tears to my eyes. You can feel the love in Ellen's voice
Fantastic voices and instruments, TRUE music. Thank you ALL, especially little lady for her help. Many blessings and much love.
Elle is such a great singer love it when she sings also a very talented banjo player. The whole family does a gerat job❤❤❤
I love to dance the Viennese waltz and I love how this rendition of the song is a beautiful Viennese waltz that's the perfect tempo for dancing. Can't wait to waltz to this song in an outdoor setting similar to where this video was made! :)
Congratulations, to the newest member of the family.

You're all pretty darn good in what You are doing here. Love to see You live in Germany if there's a chance You all return some-when somehow.
Any song you sing makes me happy
Wow! That baby is rich already with the gold she hears on a daily basis, surrounded by some of the sweetest voices on the planet! And she has proved she is well on her way to joining the family band in that precious outro!!! 😍
Lovely rendition, with the perfect backstory (Ellen, thanks for sharing!) A beautiful way to end a beautiful spring Friday!
God bless! ❤️
Adding the baby at the end was so cute. I was so distracted by the baby that I didn't notice the guest bass player the first time I watched it. Maybe he should play the bass hanging upside down so we will take notice.
The triplet rhythm is an amazing arrangement and beautifully excecuted. It takes such expert timing to accomplish that. Their talent is constantly evolving. I enjoy every video of this group!
Wonderful rendition of this song. Just beautiful. And Ellen and Michael, your baby girl is sooo cute. She’s keen to start playing bless her 😀. You guys just get better and better. Please come to the UK again soon. Blessings to you all ❤
They are playing at Union Chapel, London on August 13th: tickets available now via See Tickets.
@@markhetherington4187 Thank you for the info
A beautiful rendition of this song, Love It! Macy is ready to learn to play an instrument, any instrument she can get her hands on, lol!
That is perfect, "that is the way I felt about my wife and the way I feel each day now." Miss beyond words.
I never once thought about associating this song with my children…a whole new appreciation for it.
that is a blessing :)
Thank you for such a wonderful and beautiful song. I came home from the hospital today and you all made me happy and smiling for the first time in days. ❤ I wonder if you all realize how much love you give me and us all ♥️🙏❤️♥️🙏♥️
The Petersen's are still on a roll! Another song - another 100K RUclips views! This time it only took 3 days! But in all fairness, Ellen did have a little helper that may have sped things up a little! Best out take of all times! AND now I have a favorite Petersen / Aerosmith song! Great work guys!!! Congratulations Ellen!
This sounds like a sweet lullaby. By the arrangement of music its song has a love song and a lullaby. And through the song I was impressed Ellen sang like she talked to her baby gently.
Ellen has a beautiful voice and can sing anything! ❤❤
Incredible. You all are a treasure.
💯% agree with you!!
That was a great performance. The vocals were wonderful; the dobro always adds a special touch; I love to hear @katiepetersen when she gets to make use of all five strings on that fiddle; and Mama, as always...pulls everything together with that wonderful sounding bass. One day, I hope to get to hear you guys play live.
Music has the extraordinary ability to heal and soothe the soul. Its harmonious melodies and captivating rhythms have a profound impact on our emotions. Music at its best, is something we feel. The Petersens are that rare breed of artists that help us feel and then help us heal.
That was impossibly cute when Ellen was holding Macy and singing during the closing credits and when Macy grabbed the guitar strings.
“Impossibly cute…” Perfect description!
It's genetic...
This was a high school song for my wife and me and something we sang to all four of our kiddos when they were little too. We recently watched Armageddon with our eldest (now 14) and she remarked, "How could they take a lullaby and make it THAT kind of love song?" : )
Wait til the kids see it on "Blades of Glory" 🤣
Reaching for instruments, I can tell that little gal is a true "Petersen". ♥
You mean a Haygood lol
@@drummer3249 Yeah, but the "Petersen" name carries on. ✓
Absolutely beautifully done, thank you for another great song.
What a lovely song. That fiddle solo was really something! Thanks for this rendition. A suggestion for another time: “Who Will Sing For Me” is a tremendously beautiful song, I especially love the recording of Earl Scruggs playing it with Doc Watson and Ricky Skaggs. I would be delighted to see a version from The Petersens.
The Petersensの皆さん。いつも素晴らしいパフォーマンスを本当にどうもありがとう🩷
いつかはブランソンに見に行きたいし、できたらいつか日本にも来ていただきたい。
彼らは日本に来ることをとても望んでおり、実現に向けて最善を尽くしています。
Ha Ha Ha. Great outro. Fridays(and everything else) are always better with the Petersens. Just lovely Ellen. A beautiful cover. Our little one is reaching for the music and that's a great sign. God bless y'all
Tasteful arrangement & beautifully performed. I'm sure the guys in Aerosmith would love your version too!
Thank you that was beautiful I missed a thing I haven't seen you in a while and you've got a lovely new newcomer congratulations on the baby I'm sure she's going to grow up with music 🎶 lovely thank you for your music
Me
Great choice. Love how you kids take any song and make it uniquely Petersen. Cuteness in the outro is off the scale.
Absolutely beautiful Ellen. Your the reason I came to the Petersen's channel. So much talent in one family. Amazing.
I'm always stunned how perfect a live record can be. You are amazing
Your best arrangement yet. Fantastic. Love Ellen on Lead and the back up was spot on. Great song choice. I remember Amy Grant doing that with her Baby. Sweet.
Wow! You guys hit it out of the park! You made me get a little misty.🥲 great instrumental by Katie and Emmitt. Katie's haircut looks great, too. Ellen, you nailed those vocals!
hi Petersens great cover of my favorite Aerosmith song and in 3/4 time too! Special tribute to Katie who plays the most romantic fiddle i’ve ever heard. Your solos are so melodically thoughtful i can sing them like songs. I look forward to everything yall post.
Una canzone bellissima e cantata con una voce meravigliosa. Parole davvero commoventi. E alla fine quella splendida bambina. Da nonno non posso che commuovermi. Grazie ragazzi, siete straordinari come sempre.
Amazing! Cheers from Greece 🇬🇷
Your music is a breath of fresh air and your voices blend so well together! Congrats on such huge success and for a beautiful new member of the family❤ I've seen you live once...and can't wait to see you all again. Thank you ❤️
Ellen's voice is just magical.
Sorry about another comment so soon, but this is one of my favourite performances of you all. Gorgeous!
You guys are so incredibly awesome!
How can you listen to this and not feel a mother’s and family’s love for their little baby.
Hope Emmett gets to be an honorary uncle for this arrangement!
Another wonderful cover, but in any case all your songs ( covers, originals, gospels) are amazing! I'm very happy to be one (a little) fan, rhanks for all your times spent with us! Ciao from Italy! Gianfranco!
The Petersens family is blessed....
That was nice to show off the baby and cute to have the interaction with the instruments!😊
Great vocals, great playing, and great harmonies every time I listen to it.
It is very nice.
One of the most beautiful song I´ve ever heard!
What a beautiful rendition of the classic, and what an amazing ending! God bless this cute little baby ❤
What to say...one of the sweetest songs ever written, especially dear to the hearts of my generation, now played in the sweetest way possible and brought to new heights. I already wanted to say that I love you all, boys and girls, but then the easter egg came...and put the biggest smile on my face. My children are in their middle teens now, and I already fondly think about when they were so tender and innocent. And the way she touched the strings of both mandolin and guitar spells a lot about the fact that Music is powerful in this One :-). Love from Italy and God bless you all, especially the little angel.
That sweet baby just can't wait to start playing!
Nicely sang with surprise at end... 🤩♥✨🙏 Congrats.........and gratitude!
I'm a musician from the UK. I never did had a family , but this is the family I would have loved to have had God Bless you xxx❤ I'd jam and pick all day with them x❤
Did you see the band are playing in London a week today (13th August at Union Chapel in Islington)? There’s a ticket link in the description if you can make it 🎉
They won’t be jamming, but there’s a meet and greet with the band beforehand for anyone who’s part of the Patreon community - which is $3/month, cancel anytime www.patreon.com/thepetersens
They are remarkable.
A Big, big, big thank you to all of you! Tears of happiness streamed from my eyes when first chords started to sound. Lovely! I have no words. Thank God for all of you.
Dublin, Ireland
Watch out for a live show in Cork this August: announcing soon!
Such a wonderful song and such a sweet Macy 😍
I can't wait to see you again in Germany.
I never expected to hear a folk version of this, but this made my day 🙌 Dare I say, better than the original?
I love the 6/8; so appreciate the arrangement.
Wow, I love the arrangement, and as always, beautiful. Also, the best outro, EVER!
Wondeful rendition by one of the finest country/bluegrass acts around.
100 times better than Areosmith..
i send from Japan. i am japanese. your music is splendid.
Awww such heartwarming scenes, I really needed this. Also this song is quite calming actually, I feel like I normally hear this at a higher... loudness i feel, with the country twang in the traditional versions. I really liked this, kudos!
Great interpretation, PLUS Macy made for the cutest outro ever!!!
