  • Back in (I think) '91, I saw Hedges at The Bottom Line in NYC. I was sitting really close to the stage and just before Michael came out, who sits RIGHT behind me, but David Crosby and Graham Nash! Like, David's knee was in my back! Anyway, thinking they'd sing back-up during "i carry your heart" (as they do on the album version), I was surprised when they stayed in their seats. Then, near the end of the song, they sang their parts quietly between themselves, just loud enough for me to hear!!!

  • i simply adore the poem and just loved the music

    congratulations

  • I love the music Michael set to the poem as much as his intepretation ! and I obviously adore Cummings' verses !

    Thanks for sharing this video !!!!!!!

  • Check out the "heart of the heart" medallion by Sandra Lewis Design. And if so inclined, please post your thoughts about this poem and what it means to you.

  • Wow! Just discovered this beautiful performance this morning. One of my all time favorite poems and poets. My latest labor of love as a jewelry designer, " the heart of the heart" medallion has been in the works for almost 5 years and launched this week. Love the serendipity! Michael Hedges was one lovely and soulful performer.

  • Wow!

  • @TheKidChameleon

    are you serious? if so, damn...lucky you, this is a glorious song

    what a beautiful human

  • An ex girlfriend is a fan of Michael. I get it. And so did she. Beverly treated me badly, but at least she had good taste in music.

  • From the Peabody, Green Earth, S.F to Buckhorn... your spirit shines onto all of us who have shared the poetry of humanity with you.
