Lyle Lovett and his Large Band - Church

[WeaslyIsOurKing]

Favorite Lyle Lovett song :)

[44thuserid]

he reminds me of David Byrne, physically..

[Mrjoeypizzi]

good stuff!!!!

[wyzz69]

The dove is a reference to Jesus; the 'no salt or pepper' means that there is nothing to make it/Him more palatable.

[dnikeb]

cool

[lechroom]

Apparently, three people don't have any beans or good cornbread.

[disccentury]

[Fodn1]

Hann er løgin á at líta, men áhugaverdur

[Theredneckpicker]

Man I love this song!! FAVORITE!!

[Walnut28Comms]

Awesome!  Makes me feel not quite so white and soul-less! Love Lyle...but also love his very large band!

[leapingoutofwater]

now there's some soul food

[tmf945]

Goddam Sunday Go To Meetin' Music, good for the soul and what ails you....

[MyMoppet52]

Love this song. It['s fantastic. Daddy was a preacher and known for going long. Mom packed saltines in her bag for us. (I'm now 58) We didn't have Townhouse yet and Ritz were for rich people. We never saw him eat a raw dove but he did have a fly go into his mouth once. The choir saw it and it was hard for him to eat raisin pudding for some time. Thanks for posting! I'm grinning right now. :)

[griswaldNhtown]

he's going to perform the original german version of silent night at his REAL church (trinity lutheran) on christmas eve. if you are lucky to have graced the halls of his high school and/or hometown (klein, TX - northwest houston suburbs now), and still live here or moved back, like myself, you can witness a special event about a special event! good stuff!

[russellrosario]

1 asshole needs to go to church

[MarrissaOdette40092]

You can download the audio-mp3 of this track at grabyourmp3 doht cohm.

[jbenhurst25]

Lyle's voice has aged so well...just saw him live this summer. Incredible, and such a fun show.

[MrHElloKittySuGarplO]

WHAT THE HELL I WATCHING?

[LYNDAFAYE100]

I'd like to ask Ms Behar to retract her PUBLIC statement made about Lyle Lovette & his X "significant other" ..as I feel Beauty is as Beauty Does and Lyle Lovette is, BEAUTIFUL TO ME..I can't watch Ms Behar anymore because of her public comment showing her own ignorance of the truth-or at least her inability to understand it! I love this guy so Ms Behar needs to beware of her tongue-and may her judgments of others lead to court battles rather than hurt feelings-she owes Lyle a BIG FAT APOLOGY.

[yuv5]

so how DOES Lyle manage to stand nearly perfectly still through this whole song?

[OirishSkin]

I go to church every Sunday......... you see I love that ol lord . Thats why I go to church every Sunday............right here. 

[preachersdtr1]

Beautiful picture quality. Unfortunately, portions of Lyle's lyrics are drowned out when the back-up singers step up to their mikes. On the plus side, the back-up singers are electrifying when featured.

[uyd]

This song is Awesome, kudos to Lyle Lovett and his large band!!!

[SuperOxideDimutase]

he must be taking a big cut in his check to get such talented musicians. respect ot that, the man loves his music!

[sclark5418]

Hey Chuck - you big A((not hole)(you know)) I know you like this. I been searchin' for a god - I mean a good Lyle come back. Found a bunch -LA co., That Well, you ugly too song, She's No Lady (Second runner up fo sure ya been there) What theF? RU in love? Playin' that song? By the way-you should come check out our UU church! Or at least get together before someone else dies!!! HA!

[tms6279]

This has to be the best dressed band in America.

[MrJojogun]

@tms6279 Always found it funny that most of us get giddied up,as we embark on that journey...as if to put our best foot forward.

[rabid17]

This is an excellent song to blaze to.

[MultiMeli123]

I love you Lyle Lovett...and you are sooooo HANDSOME~~~ <3

[OirishSkin]

Well its sunday morning and I always attend church.....right here

[1971alicat]

thanks for sharing! Love me some Lyle and his large band!

[saleens7austin]

5:18 is priceless.

[zitlight73]

Whenever I heat this song I get this strange vision of Ozzy Osborne as the preacher.

[pharmfarm59538]

Raw dove, with no salt or pepper?

[Geepereet]

What's the point about 'no salt or pepper' ?

[pharmfarm59538]

If I were to eat a raw animal, I would want it seasoned!

[Pantokraterix]

@pharmfarm59538 Not sure there's such a thing as dove sushi! :-)

[GenghisWanghis]

@Geepereet

ya gotta try it first, if it's perfect, who needs salt n' pepper?

[MyMoppet52]

@GenghisWanghis usually it;s us people who have high blood pressure. Salt is always needed if you can't have it! :)

[notmrjohn]

@pharmfarm59538

The ways of the lord are not to be questioned. If salt and pepper were required, they too would have appeared with that fork. But enough discussion '

It's time for dinner now let's go eat

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

And I listened to what the preacher said

Now it's to the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat

[pharmfarm59538]

@notmrjohn Thanks!

[mimaka92]

Lyle! nuff said.

[daryaibiafiwuxe]

all the buzz is about that mp4ify site. where can i find it? rips audio and video from any youtube video to mp3 or mp4 files?

[tommyandtammy1]

great video thanks for sharing.God bless.

[Yapostadodat]

Lyle's look is VERY endearing, Earthy and American! He's got a very graceful mix of homely and handsome qualities that only ADD to his performance. You know this guy is for real and knows about which he sings.

[undapar1]

The fact that Julia Roberts maried him says alot about her. his heart and style overcame his average looks

[To3by]

I dare you to sit still when he performs this! Fabulous LYLE!

[dodootjes]

GOTTA LOVETT!

[dthompson214]

I love me some Lyle Lovett. Just a great performance and one of the best vocals in the the land

[IndependentAccount]

dont know where you've been. Yuck

[undapar1]

pass the basket, here's my $20

[altent2]

Reminds me of a church i used to go to, fellowship supper, 1st Sunday every month, largest attendance, longest sermon. Was often tempted to sing this as a special music presentation. Don't think I would have gotten away with it.Laugh every time I hear it. Will always love this song

[54dooda]

I was there, what can I say?

[pharmfarm59538]

This song makes me want to go to church with the Large Band. If the sermon isn't so good, it can still be a fullfilling time.

[rosesredvioletsblue]

Absolutely brilliant song! Lyle is an underrated musician. This song is amazing! Hope you give a listen. It get's really toe-tapping fantastic!!!

EXCELLENT video.

[scruplesz]

AWESOME!

[veg4life]

Uncomparable. Lyle, you are too cool!

[rosesredvioletsblue]

An amazing song! Alright, Lyle, sing it!!!

EXCELLENT! Lyrics are amazing.

[NayHarris]

One of my all-time favorite Lyles. A bit slower than the recording.  Outstanding performers.

[Braktooth]

This was the song that turned me onto Lyle. Great, great tune.

[danceYOURheartOUT430]

lovelovelove this song.

[jmay2002]

I think this song is also on the album Live from Texas CD i think?

[lylemcd1000]

yeah the preacher's solo on that album is better...a gravelly voice. then again, i did hear that version first...lyle lovett is incredible, and his band makes him even better.

[avapepper]

Excellent live performance, thanks very much for posting it.

But...What ever happened to the video (in black and white, of course, lol) to this song? It was good and fine and to be made much over. Is it not "officially" good anymore?

[rags1488]

Lyle has it down...keep it up bro'.

[songsnatcher2]

WOW!! WHAT A TALENTED CREW!!

[spoonman2010]

love lyle lovett.....wish i knew what his cd is called

[Geepereet]

OK, be pattient, we'll get back to you........

[halomiz]

The studio version is on Joshua Judges Ruth.... definitely a favorite.... You should check out the vid version on Lyle's site...

I'm getting hungry for cornbread!

[TheSauceybrown]

@Geepereet judge joshua ruth best album ever, family reserve,la coubty, south dakota, every song is awsome lyrically and musically:)

[Snad001]

The album on which this song originally appeared is "Joshua Judges Ruth". It is perfection on a shiny plastic disc.

[tomandsusie]

Joshua Judges Ruth.......by far the best recording ever made. I have been listening to it since the early 90's. I still have it in my changer in my car.

[Geepereet]

I will get that recording for sure being a bit hooked on his style being busy with this video, thanks for the info.

[Drumndabluz]

@tomandsusie Very few Sunday mornings go by that I don`t play this disc!!!

[BC25citizen]

@spoonman2010 Live in Texas

[tipsana]

This swings from Robert Johnson to MLK; Love this story.

[PaulinaRena]

I've never been a Lyle Lovett fan but I do like this gospel number. The music is great and Lyle does a good job with his song. It really makes you want to get up and shout. Thanks so much for posting. - Paula

[Geepereet]

Its all the same with myself Paula!

[Yapostadodat]

Great song with a GREAT soulful sound! Thanks for this post.
