Who's still watching this 6 years later? Amazing.

If Paul Simon had written/recorded this song, 3+ billion people would know it, sing along to millions of car radio jockeys playing it every day. Carson and Josh are American national treasure gems. Nothing against global commercialism, God bless this talented pair. They are a gift. Thank you, gentlemen.

"Look I get it, the man's a 6'5", blue eyed, American Dalai Lama." That line is a musical event to be celebrated.

Some of the finest knees on the contemporary music scene.

This original song sounds like a song we've always known. Mystifying.

What a ridiculously good song.

Carson's glasses pushup at 2:54: masterful.

The algorithm has blessed me on this day, May 14, 2024, with this song! How lucky can one gal get???❤❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I'm enjoying this while sipping a crisp, delicious, perfectly crafted Sierra Nevada Pale Ale....... responsibly, of course.

Of the 1,221,933 views, I believe I am 200,000 of them. The writing is beyond impressive. The Banjo and Guitar together is amazing. Even to the end with an orchestrated finish. I wish I had the musical vocabulary to give it the praise it needs.

This KZfaq version is so much better than their Spotify studio version. Love this song

After 6 years, still my favorite song

Best original song I've heard in a lonnnng time.

i didn't realise you guys wrote this song. its amazing. they lyrics are superb

April 2023, and the algorithm finally chose to bestow this song upon me, it’s about time.

Who’s still watching this 5 years later?

I love this song... I keep coming back to this video to listen to it.

This song gives me chills, makes me want to cry, smile, and sing all at the same time. Absolutely incredible

Why is this song not blowing up all over the radio??? Jesus what a great song.

Over a year later and I still can't stop listening to this song. It even survived a breakup. Still brings me joy. Cheers to you both.

ex-pat (German) trapped in China, July 2020. Found the channels of Josh and his friends during the "lockdowns". Just love it

I am 71 years old and have never heard such a talented musician as you. I am blown away by the the instruments you've mastered, your fluid style of playing, the variety of music you perform and your singing and harmony. this banjo piece is my favorite so far. Keep playing the world will be blessed for many years.

As much as I LOVE your covers, and I mean all of them, (I'm a 49 yr old music dude) please keep up with this (not type, kind or genre) originality. The collaborations are amazing, but an original song, with actual musical talent, I'm hooked.

I just listened for the 10th are so time. I smiled just like the first. Great song with the best hook I have heard in years (i am 58). Thanks fellows

I just watched Carson play this tune on his live stream from his home in NC during the Great COVID-19 Pandemic of 2020, currently ravaging the world. For just a few minutes, I was able to set aside fear and anxiety and enjoy this young man’s joyous talent. Bless you Carson.

My absolute favorite from you guys. Love this song sooooo much

Almost forgot to watch this today.

Fuck me, but they are insanely good. This is what old geezers like me call real music. A genuine delight. Precision and pleasure in equal measure. It is a very rare commodity. And however defined, they've got it. In bucket-loads.

this is legitimately one of my favorite songs ever. that little break after the Guatemala line gives me shivers. you guys are so so so talented, never stop!

You Boys Will Hear This One Covered In Twenty Years!!! It's A Keeper For Sure🎤👍

Amazing... you guys are badass and sound awesome together

You are both so talented .I have been watching your video's a long time now Josh and you are an inspiration to a 59yo who had almost stopped believing in today's music.I hope you realise how good you are and Carson is a great talent also Regards from Dublin Ireland

I'm discovering this music for the first time. It's blowing my mind!

I love this song. Everything about it is great. Words, music, vocals. Great job.

this melody is SOOOO beautiful ♥ how I wish there was a studio recording of this song...

Wow, great writing! The banjo rounds it out perfectly.

Since i discovered The other favorites, i can't stop watching/listening this one every day

I still come back to this video very often. Fantastic song!

This one of the best songs you've written. It's so cool. The blues banjo is awesome.

That is one good song. And special thanks coming from France. Keep up the great work guys. Peace

I've listened to this so many times thinking it was a cover.. but you guys wrote this!? Incredible.

It looks they are playing this music and really feeling it. That makes a huge difference. Please, keep doing this

I have listen to this song over and over again. Absolutly love it. Well done 🥰🤩👍🥳

When you two get together, it's magic. MAGIC! The last time I got goosebumps listening to you two was for "A Table For One." Great lyrics, great instrumentation, great chemistry. Do nothing to this song. Record it just as is. TAKE MY MONEY!

Music: Beautiful Lyrics: Brilliant Face expressions: Fantastic The Knees™: Excellent My enjoyment: Strong

Dig that break at 2:17

One day these guys will walk the Grammys award stage. Mark my words.

I think I've heard this song about 87 times now and it is still just pure music gold to me. If only hitparades wouldn't be so rigged, this would have been a worldwide hit. Well, it still can become one. It's timeless!

That dude on the banjo is mad talented.

What a fantastic song! Time to go listen to more originals...

SUCH, a great song and performance. Replay, replay, replay...

Can not stop listening to this song. Brilliant, truly. Write more, play more, post more. You are spreading joy.

Seriously, you guys need to make albums. Originals, covers, classics, anything and everything you guys play!

So, this one time, I was discussing iconic drum beats with the Mrs, and of course, I used “When the Levee Breaks” as an example. In doing so, within a day, KZfaq’s algorithm suggested this video. Wow! That couldn’t have been more wrong, yet, couldn’t have been more right for me. Carson, Josh, Reina, Toni, and company are so talented, and I’m so glad that I accidentally found them.

5 years later, still amazing!

Man, this is beautiful. Thank ya'l, for some real music.

How have I just found you guys! Have listened to this song about 25 times in the past 2 days, absolutely mesmerizing

A slice of perfection. Binge-repeating.

This is still great, over 5 years since I first watched, I keep coming back for the lyricism, the blues banjo, the vocals, the banter, the musicianship. Feels like watching teenage musical magicians who have become true artistic mages. Keep casting your spells, we are entranced.....

How are you not famous yet? That's a really good and melodic song. Congrats Josh and Carson

I want an album of you two

When an insanely good voice, and an insanely good guitar/stringed instrument player come together - you get "The Other Favourites".

This is just so damn good... been listening to this song for 4 years and it never gets old.

ok, now you have me listening to "originals", loving every minute of it. This was great. Loved the banjo work and the old school sound, but again, a fresh take on old school.

This is currently my favorite song - I absolutely love it! Josh and Carson you have such great talent! Absolutely stunning. Please come and perform in Cape Town when the pandemic is over!

Good grief this is so good!

Great original. Love the cord changes. Great chromatic walk down & rhythm. Excellent words. Great work guys! Keep turning them out like that. Vince James

First time hearing this OMG!!! Love this! So smooth!

This would be great fun to watch even if muted. The way you melt into the music is just priceless. But with the sound on... that is something else again... I love it, thanks a bunch, Josh and Carson! Zs

You guys just blow me away!!! What a fantastic tune.

Still Re playing this. 4 yrs on 👍🏻 Hanging out in Mack sleeper cab. 😁😁😁 heaven 😋😋😋

Just discovered this after watching many other musical videos featuring Josh (often with Carson), and this song and performance is now definitely one of my favorites! An original song, no less! Thanks for sharing all the sweet sounds, guys, and continued success!

1 million views! Congratulations, guys! You deserve this and so much more.

Wow wow wow this song, and those chords and those harmonies. Harry Potter on the left absolutely shredding it on the banjo and young Michael Caine on the right havin a good ol' jam. Didn't know you guys existed til a couple days ago. Love your sound, so real and raw.

The slick mellow smoothness of the immediate few seconds after 0:38 has caused to me to quite badly slump lower into my chair and abandon all further attempts to worry about anything ever.

God damn that's a good song!

Gotta love watchin' these boys do their thing...and they're so frickin' GOOD at it!

This is my favorite video on youtube.

still a favorite to this day

Where the hell were you kids when I was in high school??? Great stuff.

i am just plain addicted to this song....so awesome. the bend after the break you do on the banjo has more flavor than your finely crafted pale ale! syncopated style rarely seen!

Todays Simon and art with no doubt they are the modern custodians of folk music and it could not be in safer hands

omg I can't believe this is an original. I would have sworn this was a cover, absolutely great composition and lyrics, good job guys!

It is SO obvious that these two young men just have a wonderful, magical time playing their music together. They are such a pair...a match made in Heaven. I have watched a large number of vids of them together and every one of those vids is just nothing short of pure magic. I wish I could play guitar (and any number of other stringed instruments!) HALF as well as these two gentlemen do. I also wish I could SING half as well as Carson does. (I've been told that I tend to sing in the key of K flat....)(As well...I have been asked over the course of my whole life if I am a singer {I DO have a rather unique voice...to put it kindly}. I have responded that "Of COURSE! I LOVE to sing! But when I DO...dogs howl and babies cry.... "Nough said....)

fuck this is a great song, you guys are wonderful

Now i feel much better ..thank you guys 😁😁

Just in case you guys haven't heard the recurring theme in hundreds of prior comments... You've hit on something special with this tune that even an untrained ear can pick up. Great harmony, emotion, groove, and the raw physical/audio environment seem to compliment it gloriously... Well done guys!

Wow, guys - I've been a fan for a while, but I never happened to watch this video for some sad reason. I was born in 1984 in New Orleans, but I had to quit college 1 year from graduating after Katrina came through and move to Monroe in the north of the state. I know this song isn't specifically about that disaster - but wow. The relationships and community that the storm destroyed is so well described by this song, if you want to listen to it that way. Absolutely beautiful.

Fantastic! I keep coming back to hear. One of those songs you miss and need to hear regularly. Thank you.

Priceless face expressions! Awesome song, love it!

That's the best thing you guys ever registered. It's a pity that views and likes don't agree.

Perfect harmony, guys. You do know how to play with your voices

you guys are incredible musicians!

That is one good tune. Great lyrics, and masterful banjo.

One of my favourite Other Favorites' song. Great both lyrically and musically. And this performance persuaded me that the banjo can play lead.

You guys deserve so much more attention for the music you guys make. Love what you two do, keep it up!

This song its a master piece!

I've only watched this 134,643 times.

I just found myself chilling to some mighty fine music on a Sunday afternoon... Like the good old pre youtube days.....

Bravo! Great song and musicianship. Very talented!
