The way I feel about this song is wrapped up with the love I have for my amazing, beautiful, funny and fabulous daughter. Holly forever in Edinburgh, love you baby. Thankyou Vonda, you make me cry.

@Runoffscribe Michael Landau and Vonda Shepard themselves produced the original. Every live clip I've seen is consistent with that version of the song. This version is a remix: a producer overdubbed keys and fake percussion to make it "consistent" for TV, but at the same time drowned out the feeling and dynamics that Lenny Castro and Vinnie Colaiuta brought to the original (if you don't know them, look them up). Still, I was really happy when Ally shot Vonda to the mainstream she deserved.

@ibamct I respect that you knew of Ms. Shepard before her career swung under the cameras. I will have to look for the arrangement you cite. Consider, though. Isn't this arrangement just as much hers as the older one? Also, I like a little variety in my work, day in and out. Perhaps having different, and equally strong, arrangements of a personal standard gives a performer that routine-killer.

As a native Marylander who has lived in the UK for 15 years, this song always makes me choke up. 'Maryland, I'm coming home...' Perhaps not - but Maryland, my Maryland forever in my heart.

glad im a Marylander



I'm not a big fan of Vonda, but this song touches to my very core. And the more i grow older, the more I understand the "Maryland" in people. Great performance by her. 5 stars
