Fantastic video for an amazing song from an amazing album by and AMAZING band! This version is slightly different than the album version though. Was this a "live" track? Also, I'm DYING to get my hands on the import version of this album w/ all the extra songs. Can anyone help me out?

Thank you sooooo much for posting this. One of my personal treasured favorite songs and albums. Rebecca's solo works are equally captivating and enjoyable.

man, reading thru some of the comments, i wanted to comment too, I saw someone say "saw them open for lisa loeb" thats when i saw Once Blue, but in NY at Irving Plaza during Lisa's "tails" tour, i later saw Rebecca in NYC at the living room, seen ALOT of shows over the years, Rebecca by FAR and away has the best IRL voice ive ever heard. its awe inspiring when she starts singing...

Saw them do this live in NJ back in the 90's. Awesome people, great music.

Thank you for posting. I saw Once Blue open for Lisa Loeb at The Roxy In Los Angeles awhile back. They were amazing, the way their music gets your body grooving.

Wow--this is my first time hearing this and I wholeheartedly LOVE it! Rickie Lee Jones has been the greatest inspiration in my singing life since 1979, and for all that Rebecca Martin sounds a little bit like Rickie Lee Jones, I think Rebecca has a much richer tone--I am in musical love!!! <3<3<3

It's a different vocal take than the one on the album. Saw them open for Shawn Colvin at (I'm ashamed to say I'm old enough to start forgetting the names of old music venues I grew up with). It was in my neighborhood on East 15th street across from Irving Plaza, later moved to West 21st street before closing. On the tip of my tongue. Irish bar. My friends and I rented an apartment from the owner of that club.....

@86crud I think that is Calista Flockhart. When I saw her, I thought, "Oh this must have been on Ally McBeal." But this is from 1996 almost a year before Ally McBeal.

"Exactly like Rickie Lee Jones in the 70s" >>> Yup, that's there, but Rebecca has more range, more bottom (talking vocals); a dash of contralto. Think Sarah Vaughan . Better yet, check out Rebecca's 2010 release, "When I Was Long Ago", for that sound. It's a very intimate work. Also, as a bonus, you get the commercial debut of America's next singing sensation, Charlie. Well, you get 36 seconds of him, but that's the way Sinatra did it, too; "Cut, print, out...baby.". (c;

I loved this band way back when. Got to meet them once. Jessie ended up writing with Norah Jones and won a Grammy.

Yeah, it's fine... But it sounds exactly like Rickie Lee Jones in the 70's !!!

This album was so incredibly important to me when it came out, I was young but I listened to it so much that I wore out 2 CDs that year and couldnt replace them over the years since it stopped getting released, I just got it from iTunes and listened to it for a week straight, I was so happy to see a video after all these years. This is my way of saying thank you so much for publishing this video. I have followed Rebecca and Jesse over the years and wish they would collaborate again. Thank you!
