Petro knows the best way to get noticed is not by cheap-shotting the unknown or untalented. You don't get a rise by mentioning the fact Emmylou still sells out concerts and still records thirty years after the seventies, or that she is revered as the greatest country folkie working today. His Mommy tucks him in before Letterman, so he doesn't see her rested voice caress a song as few ever do. Snark was invented to give guys like that a life.

@PetroniusSatyricon69 ouch, I'm wounded petro, no need for profanity, the last refuge of a forum fool. look, emmylou has probably earned a few million dollars and the love of millions while providing a generation or two with great music. Yes, she's older and diminished, but she's still going. what have you achieved in your miserable, small life?

It's easy to be critical but I wonder do you come from a musical background? Do you sing? As a singer myself you have bad days and you have good days as well. The voice is a very elastic instrument. I have followed Emmylou's carreer from it's beginnings and I can say at least for me she has gotten better with age. Her feeling of a song is rare and few can match her in this. She is an true artist. Keep on singin girl!!!!!!

@ ajames757ify. I still feel pretty intelligent, thank you, responding to a groupie leaping to the defense of a burnt out singer who was great in the seventies, but simply aged. So fuck off.

@PetroniusSatyricon69 a thoroughly ignorant comment. in the midst of 23 shows in 35 days touring the album her voice broke at times in a live performance. Wow, don't you feel intelligent now.

I think she deserve to milk her own song any way she desires its her song.
-
It is sad to see singers trying to milk it when they are past it She has to talk the lyrics and cannot hit high notes. Compare this with her sensational version from the 70s
-
I think this would have been good to see live - shame they didn't do it twenty years earlier when they still had their marbles :)

Wow.
When you lose someone, and you will, you will be grateful for this song when you are unable to express your feelings.

With all the hogwash over Emmylou, enunciation, she will forever be a relic in folk and country. She has a sweet, powerful voice and yes, feels with hear music!!!!!!!!
