Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt - Natural Forces

[JoePassIsMyIdol]

Wonderful lyrics

[tartarussanctus]

Why does he never write a bridge? I guess he's saving up the bridges to use as verses in other songs.

[oxymomo]

Kennedy Center Honors? Anybody agree?

[linus9844]

The ACL episode with them and Joe Eley and Guy Clark is priceless. Saw Lyle and Willie in Missoula a couple months ago. My sister said it was a Lyle Lovett concert and Willie was there too.

[fabio6864]

these two guys played last year in Dublin. Never forgot that night

[Skyman46]

Wow...I'm blown away by this performance by Lyle and Mr Hiatt. Awesome combination

[kiwimale1]

close your eyes and open your ears too this masterful musician and poet of true distinction....you have to "Lovett" unless you are braindead !!!!

[jjar1001]

Both of these guys are definitely on the "A" list!!!!

[stradbally100]

The man is a genius. Plain and simple.

Missed his tour here (Ireland) last year with Hiatt. Still peeved :(

Come back soon Lyle

[damrak1969]

Wow.



[iankyoko]

This guy is captivating.

[HelenadeKoning]

Just discovered him.

Enjoying this voice so much...

[averynicewoman]

If you are a Lyle Lovett fan, you should definetly do anything you can to see him at a live performance. I guarantee it will be one of the best shows you'll ever get to see!

[exposurejd]

@averynicewoman Amen to that, sister! Saw 'em last night in Cincinnati. As always, it was the musical highlight of my year...Three years in a row!

[aliciasotherland]

Looking forward to seeing you in San diego on June 7th!!!!!!

[gharoutunian]

I love this man's music more and more every time I hear him play. First time I have ever heard this track. Wow. Amazing.

[EFISHANT]

it just don't get any better!

[tomingersoll]

Watched once, listened a second time. I saw them together in January '11 at the Egg in Albany, NY. If you have a chance to catch them (or either of them), do not miss it. Take your kids, take your grandmother, just go. A hundred years from now, these guys will rank with Stephen Foster, Woody Guthrie, and Huddie Ledbetter. Thanks for posting.

[gharoutunian]

@tomingersoll I am going to see them in June. Really looking forward to it.

[baceace]

You can hear a hint of English folk song in this style of music

[ethylene66]

The only thing left that makes me proud to be a Texan...

[m0j0b0ne]

The 7TH Cav should adopt this song...not as jaunty as Garry Owen, though. Some nights, I hear those voices, too.

[wtw88]

Hey Julia's OK and so is Lyle. No hate here.

[netw52]

I so understand why Julia said "Yes." I love me some Lyle Lovett. John Hiatt ain't no slouch, either. Would love to see them together on for a whole show.

[Pstephan100]

@netw52

They did a show a couple of years ago. It was awesome. 

[johnbogdanovicz]

Wow this song always blows me away... can't wait to see both these guys in Wilkes-Barre next Thursday...

[MrRiblet]

Damn Fine!

[adjusteratlarge]

The love bug will bite you

If you don't watch out.

If he ever bites you

Then you'll sing and shout;

You'll go (da-dee-da-dee-da-dee da

And whoa dee doe dee doe)

That's what love is all about

'Jimmy Dorsey"

[miragesoundcompany]

These are two of my top ten musicians. Saw them acoustic live together, and it blew me away! Met them afterwards and they were both just ordinary folks.... but with a ton of talent!!

[pgamblin01]

Lyle and John what a combination!!! Just awesome!

[binah711]

The best of the story tellers!

[deborahkauffman09]

isn't this wonderful...

[ColdStab]

Left me breathless. Lyle Lovett, to me, is like band aid for a bleedin' soul.

[kbless551]

Doesn't get any better.......

[MrJojogun]

John had a great gig there for awhile...then Lyle put him to work...

[thewall67]

Consider yourselves lucky to exist in the time of Lyle Lovett.

[nc2kw]

Strong, strong performance

[toddcecil]

This is awesome,great song, hiatt is playing a Rigaud guitar, one of the most amazing sounding guitars i have ever played...gotta see these guys in concert....kick ass

[breezeAngwin]

Lyle Lovett loves his cutting horse.

[tyrod39able]

Lyle is just cool. I can't explain why. He is just cool. You don't have to be pretty to be cool.

I won't go into his musical talent. It is unparalleled of course.

John Hiatt is a musical treasure as well.

[fogcoo8]

I see the open sky - it's vast.

[manakamar]

Simply cool - very cool !

[windrose777]

He's more of a man that 99% of "so called MEN" in our culture.......lol, he's handsome and beautiful,

[ken455]

hear hear

[nadinesnoopy]

i concur!!!!!!

[jmbrkr225]

My uncle turned me on to Lyle, as well as many other greats, this is great. Beyond words, truly.

[jooliecookie]

I can listen to this over and over and over again. Damn.

[whizmachine]

This makes me want to take a road trip so bad right now.

[MultiMeli123]

Great song great man!! Love you Lyle! Oh my goodness I love you! You Rock!

[0309075]

fedt

[onyachamp]

looks like me pop did.he would've liked it too.

[jack887]

Wow! These guys are national treasures.

[comaradella]

@jack887

INTERNATIONAL TREASURES MIND YOU, I´m in Argentina, and this dudes belong everywhere man

[BetaBeats]

This was truly beautiful music, can not believe that I have not heard it before.. thanks for uploading!

[brennal1979]

2 of the best in music! Loved this! Reminds me a bit of the Firefly theme.

[lilmotro614]

@brennal1979 I thought the same thing! LOVE the Firefly theme!

[Kingcaruth]

Superb ... his life performanes are a thing to behold. Wish someone had put up a video of his performance in Belfast or Shepherds Bush Empire. Maybe yet ...

[theamazing39]

Two legends together ... simply great

[hog3412]

Great tune!

[shanna1950]

wonderful!!

[tmalvey]

i love the intense look on his face after the performance. such a moving tune.

[tmertube]

Hell yeah you should post a tab.

[housemountain]

such a great song

[hampusnemeth]

Does anyone have chords or tabs for this song? Or att least the tuning?

[bobbelibob]

Not sure but I think it's a drop D. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[hampusnemeth]

Yeah, you are right! Had to go by ear but I figured it out. Might post a tab later!

[wimpicker54]

@bobbelibob Drop both E strings to D

[CRAZYLARO]

help me out john, lol.

[YvesB1]

Brilliant!

[bsilcio]

Legend

[hicks727]

I always have to laugh when people say " How could have Julia Roberts married this guy"??? I think just the opposite. He married down...What were you thinking Lyle???? She is not in your league..

[YvesB1]

Correct!

[heise76]

@hicks727 It's amazing, actually. I never said, "why did Julia Roberts marry him," but Lyle Lovett's music is a new discovery for me of the last 6 or 8 months. Prior to that, Lyle Lovett was, simply, that guy that was married to Julia Roberts for about five minutes all those years ago.

[rlgrantjr]

@hicks727

My thoughts exactly. Lyle seems like a class act.

[jrudnickrdh]

Totally agree with you!!!!!!

[ThePam500]

@hicks727 Couldn't agree more! To me, he's so damned sexy!

[celticircle]

@hicks727 yes!...

[GeniusHaydn]

I have never been a fan of LL, have always been there for JH, but this song and performance has given me a new found respect and appreciation for LL. God Bless...Bravo!!!!!

[jkonopasek]

Shortly after this recording at KINK, I saw Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt in concert in Portland, Oregon. Being a huge Lyle Lovett fan, horseman and guitarist, I knew I had to learn this song. Though seemingly simple, this song has interesting finger picking and varied choruses, that make the song complex -- in typical Lyle Lovett style. Fantastic!

James Konopasek, Mosier, Oregon.

[susdew]

Lyle has always been F****G fantastic...check him out!

:-D

[N9155E]

Bemerkenswert!

[onyachamp]

i too awoke to this being played on the late show.never heard lyle before but will definately be listening in the future

[blueeyednirvana]

WOW! That was phenomenal!

[rcarbogast]

PHENOMENAL song! I had fallen asleep on the sofa the other evening with the television on. I awoke to Lyle singing this on The Late Show. I am impressed and look forward to his new CD release.

[rktbst]

I heard this song on the local public radio station and was blown away. I heard it 3 or 4 times before I learned the artist. The last time I remember being so blown away by a song was CSN's Southern Cross....a few years (decades) ago.

[currylf]

WOW!!!! I love Lyle, he's the best!

[tj811]

AWSOME!!!! They should have made a concert DVD at this session.

[jdecker19]

LYLE!!!

[grackle67]

Love it! Counting down the days to the new CD release and the concert in November!!

[DaveZeman]

Wow ... thanks for posting this.

I'll shout it out at : thezemmyshow blogspot com
