I typically get about one verse in to the norfolk take before I'm just a blubbering pathetic mess.

The studio version sounds like absolute shit compared to the stripped-down acoustic live takes. In that form, this is legitimately one of the best songs ever written.

I'm currently in London and I saw a guy playing "Rainbow Connection" from the Muppet Movie in an subway station. It was so melancholic, but I had to smile. But If I'd see a guy playing THIS I would probably break down crying. And I usually don't cry.

This is the saddest song I can think of in that it makes me cry and cry and cry, practically everytime I listen to it. There's something about where it describes everything with just the right amount of intensity- there may be technically more intense or sadder songs, but they seem garish and overwrought in comparison.
