    Saw them perform this song last night in Knoxville Tennessee, and it was one of the most moving concert moments I've ever experienced. Simply beautiful. Thanks fellas.

    The songwriters of these gorgeous tunes never get the public credit they deserve. Thank you for this one. Will share your talent with others.

    This song was originally recorded by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band on their 1994 album Acoustic. The first version to be released as a single came out in 1998 by the Country singer Melodie Crittenden under the title "Broken Road." Her recording reached #42 on the singles chart. In 2006 she recorded the song a second time as a member of the gospel group Selah. Crittenden commented on the song in publicity materials: "I got married to an amazing man at the age of 34. It isn't that I didn't want to settle down before that, I just hadn't met 'the one.' It seems society kind of puts a stigma on those that are single and thirty-something or forty-something. Let me tell you, don't listen to everyone else. God's timing is perfect! He has a plan for each and everyone of us. 'Bless the Broken Road' talks about all the different roads one goes down to find their true love. It could also be about how you met your best friend or how you found the Lord. When I would get lonely and frustrated, waiting on my husband to come along, I always tried to remind myself of one very important thing. God is in control! He's always been there and always will be. I am so thankful I handed God the reigns because, with Him, I knew I'd go down the right path."

    I saw them outdoors in St. Cloud Minnesota at a free concert. They did this and it was wonderful. However, hearing them do Mr. Bojangles was a freaking religious experience.
