Shawn Colvin on Nightmusic

[tall32guy]

Never heard Sanborn talk before! This is cool! and he was cute there. :)

I've been playng the album version of this song averagely three times per week since 1994 aside round of blues from Fat city. (and once a week the whole both records) It's the first time I listento this wonderful version, thank you!

[specialk1988]

Wow! A great song ordinarily made even more wonderful in this performance (plus, who in their right mind would 'thumbs down' this?!! Were they high or something?).

[lmike1918]

Sanborn's hair is classic

Colvin always so gifted, but this is the first clip I have seen from "Nightmusic" in years!! It was the absolute hippest music show on TV in those days, I wonder if a person could get a boxed set of the episones...there was stunning performances on that show!

[73tunder]

Fantastic as always. Saw her in the early 80's in Cambridge. Her cover of Dylan's "You're Going to Make Me Lonesome When I Go" is as sweet as honey.

[kdb89]

that was cute!

Thanks so much for posting this. The first I ever heard of Shawn was around this time with her performance at the "Hitchhiker Music Hour" and I was hooked.

[stpiquette]

This is a wicked tight set, and jazzy which is new perspective for me on this number. Ms. Colvin you go girls!!!!

I found Shawn Colvin many, many years ago. She never disappoints. My poor kids grew up with me belting out her music in the car. My youngest daughter got her autograph years ago ..it is still gold to her as a grown woman. Good stuff.

[Istandbyme]

That's a pretty bad toupee

[BarbershopTenor]

@Istandbyme that's a pretty stupid remark ;-)

[norwester99]

I only just now stumbled on this artist through a comment to one of my posts. I have taken the bait hook line & sinker....an immediate fan who wants to hear more of her music! Does she tour the west coast much? NW ?

[SkylineToTheSeaAndMe]

I remember this show, and "Sessions At West 54th Street" and many others like these. What happened to all these great shows? She did a cover of the Beetles "I'll Be Back" on Letterman (I think) in '04 or early '05. Its maybe the best song I have ever heard her play.

[ZZZZAS]

God Almighty, what have you done to us...to put her before us this way? What of our hearts? God, did you give no thought to our hearts?

[Nanook8830]

I saw Shawn last year in Ghent (Belgium) and this is also amazing. One of the best singers in the universe!! Realy

[keztar]

I remember her playing her music in the clubs Like Merlins down at Southern Illinois University during the early to mid 1970's. I was a music major there at the time too. Even Big Twist and the Mellow Fellows were another group that became big. Good years back then that produced excellent musicians. She is living proof.

[kdb89]

Wow.

I've only seen Shawn from '99 and on. This is unexpected and surprising. She was so skinny lol.. but I must say, nothing compares to teh Shawn of present time

[bhappy1234h]

I have seen her in concert a few times...and she is wonderful and an absolute joy to listen to sing and her stories are wonderful. Love me some Shawnie :-)

[ZZZZAS]

what a doll she is when she's fired up! great energy in this performance...

[springing]

Great song! Thanks for the post.

[phdgrrl]

This woman brought so much to my life. I was able to understand my life through her lyrics at tough times in my 20s. Thanks Shawn if you ever read this. I am completely humbled by your genious.

[DjimiPaij]

Djimi Paij approves.

Djimi Paij has also met Shawn Colvin.

[Ladisz]

The time passed by! But the rhythm of the feeling with the singer is the same. Phenomenal Shawn Colvin...
