when any of you dumb asses can write a song like that, then you can comment on his weight. You are a nobody and always will be. This son of a bitch is a legend.

Steve is right up there (or damn close) with Dylan when it comes to song writing.

Just when every ray of hope was gone

I should have known that you would come along

I can't believe I ever doubted you

My old friend the blues

@ThreeChordGuitar Well he should be. TVZ was his mentor and Steve, Guy and Towns spent a lot of time together. He learned from the best. :-)

@SuperMunin

Replying to an old comment - but I disagree. I think Steve Earle's done some of his best work in the last 15 years. Matter of taste, of course, since it varies in style.

@SuperMunin I know what you're sayin, but when he talks in interviews and things like that, you can see that he as a person seems really happy. With him doin time and losing Townes like he did, that may have left his body broken down a bit, but his fire seems to be burning plenty bright. Also, if he would sell out and write songs for popular artists he would be huge and be getting paid! Im proud to say that Mr. Earle is one of the last true rebels alive, because he does things on his own terms!

@mokeleoombembe Innit, tho !!

Steve Earle is one of my heroes!

This Song is one my favorites!

But when i see this video I get very sad!

I remember him with his albums Guitar Town and copperhead road.

This song is excellent!

But the man has lost his power.

Don't know why, Drugs? Maybe.

Anyway, it makes me sad to see him like this.

A great Musician and Songwriter down on his knees,

I STILL LOVE HIM!

[mokeleoombembe]

Uh....Hmmmm.... I love his music but maybe someone should talk to him about his combover....you know.... an intervention. I'm just sayin........

[probinson1337]

Steve Earle is the greatest LIVING american singer/songwriter, and I'll stand on anybody's coffee table anywhere in my cowboy boots, etc etc

[KNVB2010]

Did not know this was his. Props for a heart wrenching song. Still love the Proclaimers version tho......
