Emmylou Harris - The darkest hour is just before dawn

[mrjoeljoel]

Ever since the first time I heard her voice I have believed that she sounds like the Virgin Mary. If the Virgin Mary had a little fun and lived a little.

[jennel802009]

I'm not a big Emmylou Harris fan but I can't get enough of this. She sings this song so beautifully. Also, I definitely can't get enough of the guy singing. He's good. This song just really speaks for itself. Good night and God Bless.

Barry Tashann: the best thing to come to America from the middle east.

thank you-Romania

[res89p6gk]

Emmylou, as someone else accurately posted about you, your voice IS a national treasure.

[OCD450]

I wonder if she'd go for a younger man??? I fell in love with her when I was 12. I'm 46 now, and I still think she's the most beautiful woman in the world, inside and out. God may not have made us, perfect but he sure came mighty close with this one lady!!!!

[123redwitch]

@OCD450 i fell in love one year before you! Me first, you are just a naughty boy, to dream of ladies when you were 12... I was 22, and i can tell you that I always felt for her, and this is strange, I notice that many people say the same, after all these years. She is really a special person. she made us happy, that is the thing.

All teh best to you. Herv.

[OCD450]

@123redwitch I think she has a spell cast over all us men and I doubt any of us are really that upset over my friend! LOL

[123redwitch]

@OCD450 not over all us men. I should say, people able to listen, to get moved , to feel emotions. Ther is something about elegance, about being simple and true, that is really there. I am not surprised that someone talks about virgin Mary, in the other messages. can we use the word divine? I am not deeply spiritual, but some things come from above, like a beautiful voice, and a true person. love. Herv.

Emmylou is wonderful but I agree that she has to ditch the shirt.

[countryfreddy]

Beautiful Song live on stage is Emmylou super Ilike her voice

[jeffv2bfree]

IF I HAD BEEN BORN 20 YRS EARLIER I'D HAVE BEAT OUT EVERY COWBOY IN THE SOUTH TO WIN EMMYLOU.

[7Brett5]

Was she a singer before she went into porn?

[brmontanhez]

Great song, AWFUL clothes... ok, it was the 80's.

[ShamanKish]

This is the true total control of voice, not theirs manipulated reality show ;)

[FAUSTORICCARDO]

Wonderful Emmylou. Grazie for sharing, Peter

[fairman1952]

What a voice and face. I love the gray hair. Elegant.

[countryfreddy]

I like this Song so much Emmylou ist great

[backporchpicker]

Beautifull rendition and great harmonies.One of my favourites.

[fivenotechord]

We have this extraordinary beauty and capabiltiy in our culture; the corporatists and their apologists want us to watch not this but televised "reality" nonsense, and fuel ourselves up on high fructose corn syrup and under-educate us - I weep for the Republic

[mclenptp]

In my humble opinion, Emmylou Harris is positively,definitely The Most Gorgeous Grey-Haired Lady in the whole world. Don't you agree with me?

[bobbytiger]

Emmylou comes in a close second.

Only to my beautiful wife of 44 years.

[mclenptp]

To bobbytiger : Pal, your comment shows your admiration to your wife of 44 years. Here's wishing you both many more years of blissful marriage. Lenny.

[Achimdeh]

She´s wonderful!

[TreeDwellnGnome]

I love that she chose not to dye it. My aunt was like that too. My aunt went totally grey when she was 25. Refusing to dye your hair is so...genuine.

[OCD450]

@mclenptp Your humble opinion is one of the best I have ever read in my life! I couldn't agree with you more!!!

[mclenptp]

@OCD450, Thank you so so much. Your comment is greatly appreciated. Warm regards, Lenny

[BucksOwin]

@mclenptp

YES!!!

[davedap2]

@mclenptp what a voice haunting

[bluegrassy1]

I love this song and have since I first heard Emmylou sing it on an 8 track back around 1980. My mother and I have sung it many churches. Thanks for sharing. :-)

[Ani344]

Beautiful american song, congratulations!

[dancedagain03]

what a beautiful voice and unique way of singing. all her very own. No one else can and has never sang like her. love it

[sierradane]

Absolutely love this song!

[bibliosca]

the Spirit and the bride say come quickly Lord Jesus....comfort yourselves with the words of scripture as wickedness increases world wide.watch and pray.accept Jesus as your God and saviour and show evidence of being born again,by having a change of mind and heart,whereby the heart was the worst thing to God and people,but now the best.

[nandokan1]

I love her hair (8

[killerbendi]

[msk779]

I love you, Emmylou!

[weeweelegs]

beautiful song, beautiful singing and pickin

[Rachella38]

I wish Emmylou would get Barry Dashian to sing with her more often. His voice & hers are perfect together. What a great song! Thanks for posting it :)

[Rachella38]

*Tashian*

[bulbheadmyass]

I agree, Rachella38, their voices are awesome together. Emmylou chooses the best harmony singers throughout her career: Ricky Skaggs, Buddy Miller, Rodney Crowell, Barry Tashian...

[scrappinjim]

tashin?

[nllleonard]

One of many Emmylou songs that I could listen to over and over and never get tired of. Just beautiful.

[chazzer13]

Great Song, Great Singer!

[bulbheadmyass]

This is the most beautiful performance of this magnificent song, it totally melts me. I've loved this song and loved Emmylou for so long, I'll probably play this all night. I sang this song to my father during his final days and it brought comfort to both of us.

[yomama861]

[jeanhoel2]

Beautiful American Song by Ralph Stanley !!! always LOVE Emmy and Barry " dueting " ... people are quiet ( actually very shy ) fun to know , that 's about to be the revolution there and in all eastern europe , the fall of the wall ( less than 1 year to go ) nobody knows it yet , it ' s still before dawn ...

[bulbheadmyass]

Wow, jeanhoel2, I never thought of it in the context of eastern europe, but the time frame really fits and it's a very touching thought.
