I would never call Nanci a country singer. She is much more than that. She is an excellent interpreter of others songs as well as a good folk singer, songwriter and balladeer. While some of her songs can seem to be country, The country crowd has never really embraced her anyway. Can you believe that she was invited to the Grand Old Opry in 2003 for the first time? That is 25 years after she started. She is much better than country.
This is a song that says so much. Nanci Griffith should be declared a national treasure. The last time I saw her in Charlotte and she forgot the lyrics to "Ford Econoline". It was very funny. Undaunted, the band never missed a beat and just played the whole thing. Nobody cared. She is great.
Such a beautiful video! I always love when videos include black and white clips, and this video was no exception! Great job with matching the lyrics to the clips. Overall, it was a great mixture of both sad and happy clips. =)
lovely song. And I am NOT a country fan. This is in a different class of emotion completely.... almost bluesy, brutally honest.

To me, the most poignant line in this song is:
"No-one ever knows the heart of anyone else"
...how true that is!

One of her best songs. These words ring so true, "because living alone is all I've ever done well" Love this song and still listen it today!

Thank you for commenting. I thought this song was so beautiful and it reminded me of Lorelai in seventh season.
