Nanci Griffith : Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness

[ELVIS4221]

SO TINY, SO MIGHTY. MOST SINGERS SINGING SUCH A GREAT AND POETIC SONG SUCH AS THIS, WOULD NORMALLY, POOL UPON THEIR EXPERIENCE(S) TO ADD MORE TO A SONG. SHE PROBABLY DOES ALSO, BUT I WONDER, I WONDER, DOES SHE ALSO THINK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT JOHN WHEN SHE'S SINGING THIS SONG? EARLIER, THEY DID AN INCREDIBLE DUAL TOGETHER. I WONDER. I ALSO WONDER IF THEY HAD ANY SPARKS. I WONDER, WOULD THEIR OFFSPRING HAVE INHERITED THEIR POETIC GENES?

[RickSWirota]

I love the woman and her material no matter what. Ever since I was a programmer at WMUH, Allentown and discovered her. A voice that cuts through you and touches your heart.

nanci has taken john's song and made it her own. 1 of the best songs ever written

[ashbyhmason]

I first heard this song in '93 and the girl I was married to bought me the cassett. What a beautiful song and the memories it brings back are beautiful also. Thanks for posting.

[jd450lh]

[MASQUERADE11J]

WOW

[adup1fc]

fookin wonderful, the warmth that is somehow expressed..............

[adup1fc]

anyone else in love with that backin singer?

[psufan1946]

@adup1fc That's Maura Kennedy on the left. Seventeen years later she still looks great and sings even better. Google her and check out her music. You'll be glad you did.

[tinkerbellchime]

Best cheater's song ever.

[tkend]

I love how Nanci looks back at her backup singer and with just a look says "Your're doin good girl!! and also gives credit to her backup group.

[tkend]

ongaciti you are so right ---- Im also so glad to see this video back . I would play it over and over and then it was gone. Thanks to whomever brought it back ===

[ongaciti]

@tkend Blessing!

Watch out Emmylou!!!!

[Epijim]

Great  cover of John Prine song!

[Suteruni]

this song touches me deeply, can almost make me cry. It is so beautiful and brilliant!

[McLanahan3]

Pete and Maura Kennedy are great on this. Anyone know who the guitarist is who takes the second half of the lead?

[HalfGreyhound]

@McLanahan3 Frank Christian, who is also a great songwriter [he wrote Three Flights Up on Nanci's record "Other Voices, Other Rooms" for example]

[lowspark68]
