I've been obsessed with this song since our music teacher made us learn it in middle school. It never fails to make me cry. I can always picture a Civil War soldier., any soldier really, in a muddy, dirty, camp...hungry, away from his family and friends for so long, no idea if he'll ever make it home. To feel that longing for a place, a memory of good times, people who love and love you and be forced to be separated from your beautiful home. It touches my soul.

One morning my radio alarm clock went off just as this song started playing on the local NPR station. I was waking up from a lovely dream i could not remember. This piece of music was so beautiful that it seemed the dream had left my head and entered the world. It made me remember all the beauty in life that I had forgotten and all the people who had loved me into being who were now lost, and all of the places that I had loved that were gone, forever lost and gone like the snows of years gone by and I wept tears that were both of joy and sadness..

Bass is the best section of a choir #BassLife

Heard this live circa 2000 with Jay White in the solo. He had a cold, but still rocked it. They came to my college, over a few days did clinicals, and a full concert. Sat next to Joseph Jennings at the concert. When they finished Village Wedding, I turned to him, mouth agape. "Yup" he said. Amazing experience.

I'm sorry, can we all just give a round of applause for Eric Alatorre. The only bass I know that can balance 10+ voices, yet still has the capability of overpowering a whole choir? Epic. Just simply epic. Not to mention that 'stache. Uhhh, Eric!
