  • Joni Mitchell's ex Larry Klein on the Bass!

  • I watch this maybe once a week; one of the best live performances going. Fantastic song, great performance, she looks perfect, and the crowd knows all of the above. Thanks for posting.

  • You meant to say Sonny CAME Home, right?

  • Brilliant!

  • Gawd, I love Shawn's voice. Looks like she was keeping and eye out for that swinging Gretsch bass guitar neck!

  • Oops! I meant "The Byrds"

  • Grea guitar intro. Reminds me of "The Birds" Roger McGuinn playing a Rickenbacker 12-string.

  • Do you folk realize how much like us, on the Eastern side of the Atlantic, you look like?

    I swear I've met Shawn Colvin's copy here!

  • As the crowd sits in complete silence, reflecting on their own lives.

  • i hope i was there

  • Her song is on our order newspaper

  • I love this song

  • I believe that's the lead guitarist from the Eagles backing her up on guitar?

  • She's so f'n great!!!!!

  • i sooooooo love this song! thanks so much for uploading!

  • @nelstar789 yup, you are welcome....i like this song too....:D

  • thank you for sharing this video, this song is stuck in my head for a few days now and I'm lovin' it

  • @koalabearseventeen so do I..

  • Great sound - a Martin guitar of course. Thanks for posting this! .

  • @DANLEO5 you are welcome :D

  • I always enjoy performers that sound exactly the same or better live as in recordings. She's one of them.

  • finally I found this song :)

  • I WISH MY LIFE WAS A SONG ^.^

  • no haters :D

  • Thanks all for the comments..it has been 4 years since i uploaded this song....

  • supersong

  • EAGLES STUART SMITH ON GUITAR I DO BELIEVE!

  • @HEARTHEANGELSVOICES Yeah, he's a really great player.

  • Amazing song It's been my favorite until this day... ♥♥♥

  • Shawn is my hero!!

  • This song makes me smile and at the same time, almost brings a tear to my eye because I miss the '90's so much. Shawn is a brilliant writer/singer, and this is definitely one of the best and deepest written songs from that decade. 1997 classic...

  • classic

  • where's was the drummer?

  • great tune. love this version best.

  • AWEsome song story/lesson ...check that bass in this vid<3

  • 'til now, this give me chills. beautiful song. <3

  • I never quite 'get' this song. Its a masterpiece to me! It's so obvious its about a woman in an abusive relationship and she's finally had 'enough'. Been thinking about a plan to escape for a long time and finally put that plan into action. This could have easily been my life, but I finally escaped another way. Having said that: Why is Shawn always simling when she sings this song? What the heck am I missing? LOVE this song! thanks for uploading this song.

  • @Sueski2 Maybe she likes the thought of revenge? I think that's a very normal form of satisfaction for most honest people.

  • @Sueski2 She's smiling 'cos she knows that so many of us think about doing this a lot of the time :)

  • That guitarist also played with the Eagles on their Farewell One Tour, no?

  • Sorry... did not mean to post that twice! Arggg...

  • Gotta love Shawn! :)

  • Gotta love Shawn! :)

  • whatever.

  • I love a Few Small Repairs :D Colvin is rarely matched, never bettered.

  • Vevo are a bunch of monsters, they seek to ruin all that is good on YouTube. rant over ;)

  • With all due respect to "lagufavorits" if you are going to commemorate someone's great work by posting their song, take an extra moment to get the title right.

  • i love her voice!! =)

  • fuck VEVO

  • Good old Shawny! She's brilliant!

  • ive so much like it,.

  • Best performance of this song I've seen....Stuart's guitar work is stellar....love the crescendos at the end...ending the song that way....brilliant! I'm writing from the new "express yourself" program at Bellevue Hospital....it's awesome! Thank you Shawn Colvin!!!

  • @ZZZZAS

    Is Stuart the bassist or the guitarist? They're both brilliant!

  • I love this... she relates in such an abstract yet articulate way, you can't help but feel it. Mrs. Colvin is such an extremely gifted artist, you can't find this elsewhere. Shawn, you are a gift to this world.

  • fell in love with her immediately ;-)

  • love this song!

  • where is "sarah" singing".building a mystery",,from the same concert !! ????

  • @TheWestendbandit

    She's around elsewhere on this site my friend (God bless her). :-)

  • Shawn Colvin is the Godmother of Alternative. In that regard, she must have spawned millions of children. Thank you Shawn! Happy Birthday!

  • the best--from a one hit wonder

  • Wu Tang is the best!

  • 名曲だぁね☆

  • i first heard this song when i watched the Gremmy awards in 1998 when i was a kid and fell in love with it.. i think she won that year.:)

  • there's something about the song that you would like and i think its poetic..really

  • I love this song! Unfortually it's the only one I like by Shawn Colvin. Kinda like one of those one hit wonders. I know she had other stuff after this came out but nothing real great. I still love you Shawn :)

  • Ol Dirt Basterd was right...fuck this shit

  • In the mid-part of her song is she talking about setting someone's house on fire?

  • I love this song! Unfortually it's the only one I like by Shawn Colvin. Kinda like one of those one hit wonders. I know she had other stuff after this came out but nothing real great.

  • I like the video and enjoy the song but the bass player swinging the guitar around like that makes me nervous.

  • when was this song recorded late 80s early 90s?

  • @60sto80s2 late 90s

  • i like this song cuz it touches how we ALL really feel and hide it.

  • @IndividuallyRapped22 Yep. Sometimes I do feel like a pyromaniac on the edge of psychological oblivion. No, I'm not joking. I'm agreeing with your statement. And the song IS about an uckfupped arsonist. I wish I could flame the realm of surrealistic reality I seem to remain in longer and longer each day that goes by...

  • Sonny's getting ready to kick some XXX.

    This song ROCKS

  • <3 love it:)

  • I TOTALLY L-O-V-E THIS SONG
