David Childers is one of the best songwriters in America!!! I am glad that people are hearing him! He also kicks ass singing it!! Go get them David!!! Curtis
The power of this song and the Avett Brothers.......This song makes me smile about my ex-wife. We did our honeymoon improvised up the PCH. The first town had a seaside bar we went to. This song reminds me of the good times. Even of they ended.
12 years gone by, the world has changed, the brothers have definitely changed, technology has changed, my RUclips channel has changed, but my old comment still holds up!!
Hi I live in the UK I was recently on a cruise and came across a video -Another Day- filmed in New York. I just wanted to thank you all for bringing so much joy in to my life I replayed and replayed it I have struggled with the guitar for many years but sadly I haven’t music in me ,you make it seem so natural.Once again many many thanks Yours Peter. PS I’m 82 but still loving it
Still listening, and even playing ALONGSIDE My Heroes, Scott and Seth Avett with my Band, Black Water Boogie from Jackson, Ms. on Playlists on Spotify, AppleMusic, here on RUclips Music etc., and this published 6 days after my 18th birthday and the Day I Graduated my freshman Year at MSU, where I first heard these two brothers' Genius writing, picking, and Singing, which inspired me to buy and learn on my first 5- string Banjo, and today, because of The Avett Brothers, I am proudly Signed to Ark Studios Media Group with my 5 piece band, Touring the South, and have even recieved State and National Music Awards and Recognition. Thank God for The Avett Brothers, and God Bless the whole Avett family and Band!
Props to Childers for writing a beautiful song. Cheers to the Brothers for making life-changing music. Can't wait for a new album! Throw us some more teasers!
ชิสา มงคลธีรโชติ still my favorite band too. There's so much talent unless you're a musician it's a little hard to explain all the elements but they are musical geniuses
Absolutely wonderful boys!!!! I LOVE the three part harmony!!! I was in a hair salon today, just on the spur. I said I was going to Gulf Shores and a guy behind me said he'd just gotten back from there. I asked if he'd been to the festival down there...he said yes. I said I missed my favorite band by only a few days. He asked who and I told him the Avetts. He freaked out and said, "THEY"RE MY FAVORITE BAND TOO!!! That's why I drove down there." Random Avett fan encounter, lol. Have a good un'.
He has a good amount of songs on older albums, it's just that a lot of those songs didn't really fit his voice too good, his best was probably "the day marvin gaye died"
I miss the days you played smaller venues. This feels very intimate. Great job you guys! That said, I've seen you twice at Whitewater outside Austin, and LOVED it!!
David Childers will be performing at the Evening Muse on 6/15/11. It's a "Storytellers" kind of night called Off the Record mixing music and on-stage interviews. He'll be asked about The Avetts covering his song in addition to acoustic performances.
Absolutely stunning video and cover of a great song. Comes close, very close, to the boys' performances of this song at Red Rocks, CO and Salt Lake City, UT this July.
I think it’s so cool that they have Bob on vocals every once in a while. They don’t care what people think, they’re making music that they want to make. Anyone know if he usually writes the songs that he sings on?
so true.. but they have such a great message i think everyone would benefit from listening to them! instead of swearing and sex and drugs, people would listen to music about morals, falling in love and growing up, etc.
i would jizz my pants if the avetts putt out a cover album with all the covers they do on here plus some others. i would double jizz my pants if they would put out their own new album. i don't mean to rush them or anything but i just can't get enough of these guys. the music is so good, the voices so simple, and the lyrics so sincere. they're fantastic. plain and simple
Does anyone know where I can get David's version of this track? I have the "burning in hell" album, but I don't think it's on that one. Love that the Avetts are spreading David's music around
Almost 2020: the Avett sound we all so desperately crave. Pure and raw
David Melando the gleam 3 is coming soon. I have hopes.
Damn right man, I saw them in 2019 on Halloween night and they just blew my freakin mind.
2024 now, we're still diggin this!
David Childers is one of the best songwriters in America!!! I am glad that people are hearing him! He also kicks ass singing it!! Go get them David!!!

11 years later and David is still sending out great music into the world!

David Childers' is one helluva singer songwriter entertainer! InI miss live music.
Still my favorite..9 years later

chhaze25 agreed!
12 years gone by, the world has changed, the brothers have definitely changed, technology has changed, my RUclips channel has changed, but my old comment still holds up!!
sing it Bob! Thank you David Childers!
David Childers is an NC treasure. I been showing off DC's songs for years, I hope the Avetts bring him some much deserved attention.
See you, with David Childers singing this song, at the Beach, 2022!
I just cannot get over how perfect this is....

2018 but i still listening :)
ชิสา มงคลธีรโชติ still my favorite band too. There's so much talent unless you're a musician it's a little hard to explain all the elements but they are musical geniuses
almost 2020 and I still am!! I'm in love with these guys

Love their version and thank you David Childers for writing the perfect song!
Finally got to see this live tonight in Taos, NM 🙏
Great! Bob should sing more!
He has a good amount of songs on older albums, it's just that a lot of those songs didn't really fit his voice too good, his best was probably "the day marvin gaye died"
This video deserves more views... I really think if most people saw this they would love it, even if they weren't fans of the Avett Brothers
Whatever it is that these guys do makes my ears very happy. I'm glad they are making a living out of music.
"Throw that harp away dangit" at the end. my favorite part.
If these guys are not the band of the next decade, I will be disappointed. This is Americana music at its very zenith.
I was there too!! Oh man they played sooo many good songs! This would have been great if they played this too..
I miss the days you played smaller venues.
This feels very intimate. Great job you guys! That said, I've seen you twice at Whitewater outside Austin, and LOVED it!!
It's in a bathroom.
Just discovered these guys. They are fantastic.
See you guys in about 2 hours.
Pittsburgh, PA
Oh my god, Can how can I express how much I am loving this!
they opened with this at the show i went to.... one of the best ones they sang that night.
Awesome..love the Avett Brothers & David Childers... Will be playing with David Childers this coming Dec 30th ..can't wait !
I gotta go see these guys. This is a great tune & they have some great harmony going on.
Heard this live In Canandaigua NY tonight! Loved it!
David Childers is The Prettiest Thing I've ever seen. TXS for the cover TAB. Real sweet.
They played this just tonight in Columbus! AWESOME CONCERT, THEY KILLED IT AS USUAL!
Great way to kick off the holiday! Thanks guys!!
I love you guys!!! Can't wait to see you in person October 14th.
Loved this song before. Love it now. Can't go wrong.
How am I just seeing this now I love it
Missed out for 18 years but no more if u choose. ✌my friend.
This performance is "The Prettiest Thing" that I've seen all day. 😊 The harmonies are awesome.
So glad they have been singing this on the road lately. Such a great song and they do it to perfection.
Bob doesn't have the prettiest voice, but man I love to hear him sing. Letter to a pretty girl is one of my Favetts

Beautiful! Heart felt as always! Love those guys. They were Awesome in Cleveland last night!
Love this so much! Can't you just picture that little seaside bar and the stormy sky...
Saw them live in Montreal last night, what a show! Wish they had played this.
So freaking good.
Absolutely stunning video and cover of a great song. Comes close, very close, to the boys' performances of this song at Red Rocks, CO and Salt Lake City, UT this July.
Song written by one of my faves, DAVID CHILDERS! Seek him out...he is the real deal!
Harmonies at 0.38 ..words can't describe it...gdamn, I love these boys
Two thumbs up and a snap! I love this song and the Avett Brothers just took it to another level.
That was an AMAZING concert! I am still amazed by the live version of this! I can't believe it took me this long to go to one of their shows!
This is EVERYTHING I love about music!!!!
Just saw them in concert last week. They sounded incredible; excellent show!
WOW!!!! SOUNDS INCREDIBLE!!!!
@kmgreensman awesome! thanks for researching that! i can't get enough of this video :)
This is fantastic.......Keep on playing........Thumbs up !!!
I really wish they would record a lot of this stuff.
Ahhh. The haircuts. The harmonies. The musicianship.
Couldn't be more perfect.
Great cover!
It's not possible for me to like a song anymore than I like this one.
Can't believe this time tomorrow, I'll be watching you guys live! I guarantee I'll be geeking out!
The line is I know you tried to tell me but that's when I was a drinking and I can't find the words to win you back, good version of this classic.
Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.
i can't stop watching this!
Beautiful.
a true joy to listen to
Am I ever not going to be stunned by their voices?
gotta love these guys for taking the time to make these videos!
THey rocked the shit out of Pittsburgh last night. WOW, awesome show.
One of the "prettiest" songs ever written! ♥
This is great - thank you for sharing! We need an audio version to download!
I love these boys!
I need to see them when they come to iowa
Amazing, as always. Perfect start to my day!
I think it’s so cool that they have Bob on vocals every once in a while. They don’t care what people think, they’re making music that they want to make. Anyone know if he usually writes the songs that he sings on?
please cover "into the mystic"
I know Im kind of off topic but does anyone know of a good site to stream new tv shows online ?
@Bryant Barrett try FlixZone. You can find it on google :)
@Marcel Arthur definitely, I have been watching on FlixZone for since march myself :D
@Marcel Arthur Thank you, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) I appreciate it !!
@Bryant Barrett Happy to help xD
Absolutely amazing!
9 shades of awesome
so true.. but they have such a great message i think everyone would benefit from listening to them! instead of swearing and sex and drugs, people would listen to music about morals, falling in love and growing up, etc.

You had me at PBR!
This never fucking gets old.
I love the cello on this!
WAY TO GO BOBBY!!! YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!
They played this last night at Shepherds Bush... Amazing!!
I love love love when you let Bob have a part to sing
Nothing but perfect!
Just damn...Love it!
What a treat to see Bob get down! Yeeeeah! :)
Remarkably beautiful
Everything they do is beautiful! I have yet to find an Avett Brothers song that I don't love
Love love love this!
@rlove3 The original by David is on the CD: Room #23 by David Childers and the Modern Don Juans. You can buy it at running-timedotcom
Love, love, love it!!!
my heart just skipped a beat
Love 'em!!
Hail J. Kwon! This cover is perfect. Love Childers, but this brings it to another level
I cant stop watching this! I've gotten nothing accomplished for days because all I do is watch crackerfarm videos.
I love them.
Does anyone know where I can get David's version of this track? I have the "burning in hell" album, but I don't think it's on that one. Love that the Avetts are spreading David's music around
