I lived in Santa Fe for a few years. Its been a decade since I have left and I miss it dearly. The decision I made to leave Santa Fe was the worst decision I have ever made in my life. Im going back one day.
This has always been a favorite song. I've never been to Santa Fe itself, but this part of the country--northern New Mexico and northern Arizona--is my favorite part....and the song helps me connect to the feelings I have for the area, and the beauty there. It is "home". The area where I feel/felt happy, comfortable and at home.
I uploaded this video from a old VCR tape that I had in my collection-Just heard the Bellamy Borthers in Mid May in El Campo-Will go hear them again on July 9 in Sealy which is about 45 minutes from Houston
Whenever I hear this song, it reminds me of the BNSF railroad. Anybody else think that, too? Anyway, Howard and David hit #5 in Billboard, 4-2-88. No offense meant, everybody, but, God bless!
@DaveWollenberg When it came out in 88' it became one of my favorites because the Santa Fe was one of my favorie railroads (and still is). Glad i've got the video on tape.
i get fond of listening bellamy bros. songs when i 1st heard on the radio their song let your love flow, then i searched on youtube if i cud hear more of them, so finally ive found a lot. and its really nice listening to them. great music.. loving it. my friends asked me why i love old country songs, old songs actually, well its just that its really suits me.. wish to see them personally, singing live..
@KeyEsPhi Country music now days has lost direction is just pop with twang. There are definate exceptions but it is a lot of listening to bad music to find them.
If you get a chance see BB do it there is an energy that does not really come through in the videos and recordings.
@Waylonstillthebest yea their more on pop,country pop but doesnt really sound so well unlike those before that really makes a lot of sense, really want to see this guys perform.. have you seen them?
@KeyEsPhi I've them five times. They are particularly good live. They have an energy that does not come through their records. If you ever can see them in NM they often have some of the indian dancers perform with them.
@Waylonstillthebest wow, that is exciting. really good singers when you hear them better in live performance. i mean not all of us have that talent, they were blessed they have that.. and its a blessing for us that we have them.
I must confess i didnt know this song :-( but it pleases me, so calm and peaceful, besides lovely pics.
Bellamy Brothers were very famous in my home to my time when i was 14 and so, lol, dear u wake again memories to my youth but i am not sad youth is gone...
Whoever nicknamed New Mexico the Land of Enchantment knew a thing or two. I'm 110% Texan, and have done a bit of traveling, and if I could be happy anywhere else I've been it could well be NM. (Colorado might could slip in there as well.)
It's no longer what it was ten years ago. And nothing it was 30, 40 years ago. I'm a naitive.
