I've been looking for this Shawn Colvin cover for some time and it's nice to find it, but there should be some acknowledgment of David Byrne and Talking Heads as the songwriters.
This is so unique..i didnt even realise it was Talking Heads when I first heard it cos I was just listening to the CD and hadnt seen the name. Shawn's interpretation of songs is amazing!
Cool! Saw her do it at the record release party for her first album, and loved it. If you google "shawn colvin steady mash" you can find my review (apparently YouTube doesn't like links in comments).
Wow. The memories... I first heard this version of the song on her tape Covergirl... She was covering the Talking Heads song - This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody). I was amazed at how she interpreted it. Beautiful, just like all her other musical interpretations on that tape. Beautifully sung just like all her songs. Thanks for the music, Shawn!
This is a very difficult track to find - I have been hunting for this high and low to play at my mate's wedding. Really difficult to source..great collaboration
This is absolutely beautiful...Shawn Colvin is freakin amazing!! and this arrangement with strings attached is heartbreaking!! Thank you for puttign this up!

I have always liked this cover, which I heard before the original by the Talking Heads which is also great.

saw Shawn Colvin open for Richard Thompson -- the magic happened when they both played a couple of songs together -- simply magic!

Someone once said that if we could hear an angel sing it would sound like Shawn Colvin. I second that opion.

I've learned to accept the fact that Shawn is simply immortal when it comes to song and song intepretation.
I can't wrap my head around it...

She's amazing.
