Roches - Losing True - McCarter Theatre, Princeton 4-14-90

[blessyourheart46]

I made it to 47. Loved all my girlfriends and never cheated....never wanted too...........not in my nature. They all cheated on me and I am broken now. Lucy was the last straw. I somehow new I would hear this last......I have always loved this song xxx

[blessyourheart46]

I have overdosed and I am waiting to meet my merciful God. As the tears pour from my eyes I forgive all those who cheated on me. My soul is clean and my conscience is pure. I have loved these ladies all my life....their voices are unique. Bless them. x

[blessyourheart46]

Timeless talent.

[SGINNER]

[TheInvincibleViolet]

I fell in love with this song the very first time I heard it.. So beautiful .....Thank you for posting...

[trannyache]

sooooo divine

[katyornok63]

They grow older but not their voices, and certainly not their music - really, they are unique and timeless. I can't get enough of these songs and this is one of my favorites.

They always give me a certain feeling of freedom and put me in a place like no other, as if I'm in my own field or something. They impart something in this song that transports the listener.

[nikkormac]

oh, look how *adorable* Maggie looks with her short little hairs! i had such a crush on her back in these days. Terre too. and i stood, as i still do, in awe of the talent of each and all of them.

[Sadpoppet]

now my life is complete as w DeEastSanjo never thought I'd hear this angelic song again!! Blessed Be!

[JosephDillon57]

We must be patient with God. In the end, we'll all be one.

[millvalleyrn]

@JosephDillon57 my version reads "...we'll all be done."

[cofycats]

I've seen the Roches a handful of times and like many of their songs, but of the more serious songs, this is my favorite.

[MiltonJenkins]

This is the kind of song that would make you get out of the house and get every CD they made to make sure you got this one. It just grabs you and you love it.

[buchananstreet]

certainly one of the most beautiful pieces of music written in human history

[k8ttleson]

I have played this song way too much.

[millvalleyrn]

make no mistake when mystiquing a make.... ..

the edge of insanity, the exhaustion of longing for true love

[Aggedor1959]

Shining stars in a decade of so-so music (IMO). I have the CD and I ain't givin' it up! :-D

[robbob35]

Easily the most underrated artists of our time. Listening to the Roches is like nothing else in this world. I love them so much it hurts.

[GuanoApe420]

robert frip was a great set player on this song on the album

[xrat5]

Really, one of the best Maggie Roche songs and thats saying something. On a side note, could Terre possibly look more fetching?

[xfelix421]

what is the name of the song nthat they say Jesus shaved in ?

[stealyourboognish]

Its called Jesus Shaves. Written by Paranoid Larry. Song appears on the album: Moonswept.

[shamrockviolet]

I saw them 1988 ish...? Chicago. Park West Theater. the most beautiful harmony to this day. PLEASE gosh..... I HOPE THEY DO A COME BACK. wow. xox

[bobbyt65]

The Shaggs sure have improved since their first album.

[syr1811]

One of the most beautiful & powerful pieces of music anywhere & ever. Fills me with such sweet sadness, beauty & hope. Maggie, Suzzy & Terre are unique & Amazing - Live Forever!

[gtakilla01]

Beautiful! "Keep On Doing", is still a rare jewel.

[DeEastSanJo]

Wow! Never thought I'd hear this incredibly beautiful song again. Thanks for posting.

[johnozed]

Fantastic. Thank you so much!

[BelleFourche]

By far their best song (courtesy of Fripp).

[HDN1956]

Thank you fur uploading, you did me a big favor.

[munsterfloyd]

One of their best. So smooth, so simple so complicated so tight. Thanks for this one.

[Zanaspus]

And I was there. <3

[MRSSMITHROE]

Wanted this song on cd for twenty five years. in the mean time, thanks for this .

[homme323]

Does anyone get the bridge lyric: the night of shining armour (DOESN'T??????) do her any favors?

[qoquaq]

Here are the lyrics

as taken from their web site.

"the knight of shining

armor doesn't do her any favors"

Traditionally Knights are supposed to willingly doing favors for their chosen Lady.

I guess the guy in the song doesn't treat her right, that's my interpretation. :)

[homme323]

Thanks. Still don't get this in context. The point of view changes...but...such a great song. It still kills me after all these years.

[transoz]

I think it is ties in with the following line..maybe it means 'be careful what you wish for'

[UncleCharlieOakley]

Achingly beautiful. Thank you so much!

[beverlysutvin]

awesome!

[TheyGotDead]

In my top 3 of Roches songs, thanks for posting!

[bobchilds]

Just curious, what are your other two favorites?

[JoeChrisMorris]

My current fav by the group is No Trespassing

Can you have a fav by the Roches (Maggie and Terre and Suzzy?)

If this is your favorite, then what about Winter Coat? Hammond Song? Broken places? Its a definite pickle!

[dtmfr]

I like "This Feminine Position" and "I Fell in Love" the most. Feel bad for everyone who doesn't know about them. Their music will last forever.

[JoeChrisMorris]

You fell in what?

[catherkidd]

love the song - excellent video - thanks.

[diceman00]

This is the first video I've seen of this, their best song ever, imo. Good post!
