How this song doesn't just blow away anyone who hears it is beyond me. Perhaps it is a blessing that Lyle isn't 'mainstream popular;' for the beauty of his music is that he remains true to self rather than strive to fit his music under some narrow label. He is just amazing.
One of the most beautiful songs ever (even if the sound quality is lacking here). How this song just doesn't reach into the soul of everyone who hears it is beyond me.
Sublime...this man has the voice of an angel...no wonder Julia fell in love with him...he could sit and sing to me all day long...and I would see him as the most beautiful creature on God's green Earth!
Beautiful!!! I have had the honor of 2 Lyle shows in Minneapolis Mn. I have attended many concerts in my 46 years, and have never felt as i have after watching this man with his awesome band play a show.. If you can see him live, do so! You wont be disappointed....
90210 is where I first heard this song too. I have loved it ever since. I highly recommend Lyly Lovett in concert. He is great live. The tickets go fast.
Come on over And I like eggs over easy with the flour tortiilas - Along with (a lot) of cream in my coffee - really - just let me know first - my yard is good - we can eat in one of my gardens - just not inside the house
I dont know what it is...I keep coming back to this song! First time I heard this was 90210...When Dylans wife was killed. I hadnt heard it again until last year, almost 10 years after sitting at the rose bowl parking lot after I just got home from my last deployment. Its an amazing song!
This is the quintessential version of this song. Only Lyle can whisper those little whispers coupled with the perfection of the bronze-wound strings of his Collings guitar. When you consider that this was recorded in a perfect concert environment for Austin City Limits in 1994, with Willie and Rodney Crowell listening nearby, this truly is the Holy Grail of Lyle Lovett acoustic virtuosity. As his voice ages, he may never duplicate this performance in terms of perfection.
I really don't think Lyle's voice has fallen off over the years. He is one of those few artists whose live performances sound exactly like his records.
i m a huge lyle fan, and i love what you wrote here. you r obviously a big fan as well, and you truly get it with this guy. he has such a great touch and his sound on this is so great and it typifies his live shows. his guitar has a distinctive sound and goes so well with his voice..... funny thing on this performance is his voice actually cracks a little and you can see him holding in a grin..... this guy is great and i'm so glad to see other people geting into his music. thanks
Just beautiful.Talented man.Has written some great songs.

Willie Nelson is sitting next to Lyle, with his broken cigar box guitar, and thinking to himself: "Man... I suck!!".
