Josh Ritter is one of my all time favourite musicians and I have seen him play live countless times, from a church in Dublin to a rugby club in Tullamore via a little parochial hall size venue in New York City, and each time during the gig, I have been moved to complete silence at least once. I have also been known to shed a tear at some quieter moments.
He has, more than once, sang a spine tingling version of The River, by Bruce Springsteen. Stepping in front of the mic, at a full venue in Dublin and starting this, the crowd descended into complete silence and whispered the song along with him. Definitely one of the teary moments.
Well, this link of Josh Ritter singing The River arrived in my inbox this morning and it certainly made my day. Hope that it makes your Monday slightly more bearable.
