Sodom, South Georgia (Live on Radio) - Iron and Wine

I just bought 3 of Sam's albums on iTunes. He is a true musical genius. Amazing stuff. This song, upwards over the mountain and the trapeze swinger are my 3 favorites.

The woman, Sarah, in this video is my Accounting teacher!

Best lyricist of this generation--hands down. Beam paints pictures, man.

I never liked this song when it was new too much. Just didn't hit home back then. But as i age this feels closer and closer to home. One day ill die smiling. I already know that. Lived well enough in the time ive been given.

to anyone who has lost a father like me this song is pure therapy

Cheers from 2022! Still loving Iron and Wine ♥️♥️

i will never forget the first time i heard this song

I fucking love this version a lot! It amazes me what some people can do with a guitar and there voice.

this is just otherworldly, thank you to sam beam for inspiring singer-songwriters around the world with such lyricism that hasn't been matched in a while.

my fav song ever..

I've loved this song for years and I always will

Absolutely beautiful. What a voice, words and playing. Hauntingly brilliant.

This is my favorite rendition he’s done of this song!

Lovely song ..... Cheers Ricky!

god, I love this song.

I have to disagree with you here. I'm fairly new to Iron and Wine, but I think her vocals compliment him quite well... she emphasizes the melancholy aspect of his music without making it overly sorrowful.
I don't think she sounds "weak", she's just another layer in the sound - a bit more in the background than Sam, which works for me.

one of his best. his sister is as beautiful as this song

i personally like her voice with his, it works for me

wow, great song!

I love when I go to one of Ricky's song links and it's a song I've already been a huge fan of like this one. Iron and Wine actually played at a small venue in my town recently...it was awesome.

Its very beautiful!

Thank you Ricky Gervais, for showing me this amazing song! :)

Beautiful.

awesome footage! thanks for posting

aww. jesus singing beautiful song.

Sublime

I know people may disagree with me, but I have to throw it out there... He reminds me of Damien Rice and this song reminds me of Rice and Lisa hannigan... They're both very talented, great folk music :) I would love to see Damien Rice, Ray Lamongagne and Iron & Wine perform together along with Rachael Yamagata.

Wow indeed. And I do enjoy your version too! Keep up the good work mate.

wow

thanks for the response. i actually know how to play it with strumming. i wanted to pick, and there are slight chord changes and progressions.

can someone please tab this version? its much more fun to play

@mccarrd4 he posted this song on his blog so most of the recent views to this video are his fans.

The essence of the song isn't the chords, those are just put there to add harmony and reflect the mood of the lyrics. so know matter how simple the chords are, as long as they match the tune of the song and the lyrics have meaning it can make for an incredible song. In my opinion

Am I late to this party?

He isn't in a 440 if my ears are not mistaken. He's in tune but not in 440. Correct me if I'm wrong. And for all haters. Relax I'm not bitching I was just trying to sing along this version with this video and noticed it.

I want to spend the rest of my natural existence nestled in his beard.

And who said accountants weren't cool.

grateful dead very reminicent

thumbs up if ricky gervais brought you here!

Sarah Beam is your teacher?! what college? so i can register!!

All the comments are removed! Chick-can you believe that?

@Armand666Dead I know that he uses different keys for his songs all the time. But he's not using a capo here and playing normal chords for this song an yet I'm a little off when I play along with this video. And I'm tuned correctly.

Auntie Nora 'likes this'

he aint too bad at all.

@datngatrel
Have you listened to them?

Do we need um?

Alan Moore meets Jack Johnson

@ItsameAlex
I just realised he sent us here coz its an atheist song. Another good atheist song is ''Dear God'' by ''XTC''.

Although this is way better than most, of not all pop music out there today, this version (the way he plays this live now) is not nearly as good and touching as the one on Our Endless Numbered Days.

Stop the violence!!

how did he get you here??

@1234doawee
zack galifanakis?

@datngatrel
Ok try this: ''get cape wear cape fly- i spy.''

@1234doawee
I love ricky gervais but if I suggest better songs will that make me cooler than him?
Here I go:
Ocean- John Butler Trio
Glasgow kiss- John Petrucci
Goat- Eminem

thumbs up if bob sagget brought you here!

Had a pet magpie called Maggie

i want to touch the beard!!

this version is too fast... for me

i was hoping sarah would redeem herself from her awful pitch problems at bonaroo. I dunno, she's not terribly off but i dont think her weak harmonies compliment sam's pure and raw sound very well. Just a thought.

THUMBS UP IF SATAN BROUGHT YOU HERE !!

Ha.

bähhh

he needs to do more jokes like in Between Two Ferns or The Hangover, this song is not nearly as funny as those
