Shiniest car I've ever seen
The back seat is nice and clean
She rides as quiet as a dream
Someone dug a hole six long feet in the ground
I said goodbye to you and I threw my roses down
Ain't nothing left at all in the end of being proud
With me riding in this car and you flying through them clouds
I've had some time to think about it
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long ride home
One day I took your tiny hand
Put your finger in the wedding band
Your daddy gave a piece of land
We made ourselves the best of plans
Forty years go by with someone laying in your bed
Forty years of things you say you wish you'd never said
How hard would it have been to say some kinder words instead?
I wonder as I stare up at the sky turning red
I've had some time to think about it
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long ride home
Headlights searching down the driveway
The house is dark as it can be
I go inside and all is silent
And seems as empty as the inside of me
I've had some time to think about it
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long
On the long
Oh the long
On the long ride home
Me toi
I think it would hit harder and at a different spot.
Try Jason Isbell – If We Were Vampires
Same spot same impact - there's more than one way to get where you are
YMMV
Your comment jogged my memory! Thanks- Patty reminds me of the character "Ernestine" from Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In, circa 1969. Ernestine was played by the late Lily Tomlin, a telephone operator who spoke with an hilarious, exaggerated nasal tone... Patty could "sing the phone book" but it would regrettably be entirely through her nose.
I don't think Lily Tomlin has passed and Wiki agrees that she is still alive.

you're a bit short on the grade there nick..
Um, no they're not.

I love this song, but the one that kills me every time is "Making Pies". Damn dust, getting in my eye.
Yeah, that one gets me too. A lot of her songs hit me where it hurts.
Speak for yourself, Kemo Sabe. I'm just visiting...
I can make it all the way to "I go inside and all is silent and seems as empty as the inside of me" before my allergies act up...
Dangit!
Same here.
Truth.
FYI: Patty does one nice version of "Boots of Spanish Leather".
Perhaps you are thinking of the version by Bob Baez?

Too right. We are not here long enough to waste the love we are shown. Once it's gone, it's gone.
As usual.

If I have my way Patty will be singing in the background as I pass to the next life...
sounds perfect this morning
How I look when hearing it:

The whole song just gives me chills, as do many of her songs.
No one finer. She was entertaining and very down to earth. A national treasure to be sure.
You drove 1100 miles just to see Patty? That's what I call a fan!
I think it would hit harder and at a different spot.

I don't know if she's a wonderful person or not, but I absolutely love her singing!
On reading the lyrics, it appears to be a song by a man to his late wife and not, as I assumed, a personal experience of Patty's.
Yes, I was wondering about the 'tiny hand'. Must be singing as a man
This ^^^^^ Arrrgghhhhhhh! Painful!
Nice! Everything,music, the voice, arrangement, words.Nice

Not at all - I feel the same way about some of the Poe songs that are played on RP. Sometimes a song's emotion is just too intense.
Me too. Not strange at all.
I agree, It's probably my favorite Patty Griffin tune, whenever it comes on I have to stop whatever I'm doing and listen. By the end of the song the tears are flowing...
40 years of an unfulfilled relationship. that would make just about anybody cry.I'm going on year 21.

And thank you calypsus_1 for another fantastic image (and words of wisdom)!
Dude, if this doesn't get it for you, I have no idea what ever will. This entire song, lyrics, music, everything, is PERFECT.
If I can EVER listen to this with out tearing up...I will be dead.

For me, the concept of "artistic merit" and "commercial merit" are perfectly defined and separated, when analyzing an artistic musical work, though compatible and coexist together.
Obviously I understand that this contrasts sharply with and diverge the nature of the business and organization of the music industry, where everything, music / art, and business, with a whole roll, and even if accepted, that is the only way that makes sense . But it is not.
That success is based on artistic merit, based on taste and adherence to this musical work, regardless of the success achieved on sale.
The merit-based commercial success, is also based on a component like, but it is mandatory condition to be sold on a large scale.
And therein lies the fundamental contradiction: that is to obtain and enforce commercial success, uses mechanisms promotional aggregates industry in order to induce and create advantage in a given musical work in order to obtain the maximum profit. Creating what they calls "music that is trendy."
While it is relegated by default, artists and genres more elaborate, but which are not potentially interesting to come to generate sales.
About my response to Horstman: I just direct "I replied to the letter," but I confess I have not used a lot of patience, and not used the "mass of polish words," obviously we are not here concerned people themselves, but what they say in their quality of this radio commentators. As few as.
About the images, links, drawings, "reviews of background," i put here, there is nothing commercial or promotional, much less advertising, is an inestimable benefit, to create "visual identification ties", biographic, pedagogic character, if desired, with the artists, which in my personal perspective, of recognized merit beyond the average.
You do not think, not even close, not even remotely, that all common people has access to artists, as you have. They have not.
And you do not doubt it, that only listen "airplaylist" couple of hours daily is sufficient. Not at all. Because the dinosaurs of the music business, take a big advantage with the integrated control of their broadcast media - image, video.tv, newspaper-magazine, "corporate rags". So.
I do a drawing for you: if you ask in any street of the western world, to an anonymous, for example, who is Justin Timberlake? Who is Gillian Welch ? Who is Patty Griffin? Who is Neil Young?, you'll be amazed.
Patty who? I know a Patty, but is my neighbor the 4th left.
Neil Young? let me see, what u say? Liliane?
Gillian Welsh? who? Raquel Welch? ...
Justin Timberlake? there will be many more people to hit the target .....
What makes the difference? "Propaganda -phenomenon".
comment "on board": specifically, does not exist. The closest thing is a "chat" giant, with allusions and commentary, instant character as part of a rolling platform, open to the entire community, style similar to "Twitter".
Review: critical analysis or building on a theme based on taste, sensitivity, acceptance or rejection based on facts (quote or external collection of information), which may or may not contain, and be assisted with external links, photos, cartoons, drawings , video, and more.
You focus on a certain point, "if we had five or 10 other people who posted?", "Or about 20 or 30 other?". This is the point. Only a very small number around the RP is "dare" to comment, interact, why? (and many of them are known among themselves)
Therefore should be more members to make it all up, it would be "icing on the cake"
Why are the remaining few thousand, I think, do not feel motivated to do this? This is what should be of concern and a goal. It is to let the opinion of a few prevail by a whole can not be conclusive; which opinion and feedback, of the other thousands of listeners about airplay? It would be interesting to know, and even then more support for RP.

A Lefty Frizzell song "I Want To Be With You Always". Thank you Patty Griffin. Lefty Frizzell (March 31, 1928–July 19, 1975), born William Orville Frizzell, was an American country music singer and songwriter of the 1950s, and a proponent of honky tonkmusic. Fellow Texan Roy Orbison was a devout fan of Frizzell's sound, and in 1988, as a part of The Traveling Wilburys, he chose the name "Lefty Wilbury" to honor his musical hero.
The Country-music style is not obsolete and unused genre, as some stupid and unconscious comment as seen in many opinion for the Web and mass media. Prejudices and lack of historical knowledge and traditions of genuine American songbook.
A Lefty Frizzell song "I Want To Be With You Always". It is a beautiful interpretation of the great singer Patty Griffin and Buddy Miller. Only genuine and talented artists know how to recognize the merit of other artists of the past, seeking his roots in musical motifs of inspiration and renewal. That is what prevents them from being forgotten and even ignored, and easily exchanged by "artists" recent "trumpery". Thankyou Patty. This is another reason to admire and respect you even more.
I lose my blues
Only when I'm with you
No one else can do
You're in my heart to stay
And when I'm gone
And I'm all alone
I'll still be singing this song
I want to be with you always
I'd be happy dear
If you could only be here
And always be near
Forever and a day
Then we'd travel far
To some big shining star
Just you and my guitar
And stay there sweethearts for always
I hope you feel the same
You really want my name
Well, you'll be the one who's to blame
If it works out wrong that day
'Cause my love is true
My love is only for you
And I would never be blue
If I could be with you always
Then we'd travel far
To some big shining star
Just you and my guitar
And stay there sweethearts for always

Calypus1 adds a lot of info to the music that we listen to and here hear. Including lyrics, lots of band photos, some art, and other such little niceties. You sir, add nothing but negativity. Go to sleep on your own.
Lame comment.
Bedtime, nighty night. 
I cannot escape C1's utterly lame advertisements for bands.
When I have trouble falling asleep, I need look no further than this comment page. Thanks Calypus1, you have succeeded in hijacking this page. You are the world's biggest bore.

....you left me at Lefty Frizzell........boring.....words and music....
Rock: Indeed. No disrespect to Calypso but that's as disjointed a diatribe as I can imagine.
I'd rather just sum it by saying those who are not students of History oft'times are Victims of it.
So it goes.
Now.....back to the music? Oh....and I give Patty high marks for this one, too. ;-)

her vocal style really adds to the sadness. but actually, I think it's the nicest car HE'S ever been in. she wrote the song in the perspective of an older man from the midwest that's just lost his wife, feeling empty and wishing he could do so much of it over again...

The country-music style is not obsolete and unused genre, as some stupid and unconscious comment as seen in many opinion for the Web and mass media. Prejudices.
Also there are now many misunderstandings and prejudices about the U.S. protest music of the 60s up to today, as in other parts of the world, and about their authors, with the intention of devaluing and bleaching, to forget the past, the noble struggle, claim of rights, for peace, human rights, discrimination and rights of citizenship. But we must remember that these struggles are of yesterday, today and forever. Today, new generations were born in freedom and enjoy the rights enshrined, in the past did not, and should it to their ancestors who fought for it. Despite advances in human history (formal democracy, contitucionais rights, labor rights), we still see today the situation of degradation and forms of slavery, came to light (The New York Times) as the recent case of Apple sub-contracted production to a company based in China, using hand labor devalued, almost slaves, where workers earn below subsistence level. Would be very conviniente forget it all and start again. But there is something called History. That is to say that we must have historical memory, to do well today.
Returning to the theme, rather, the country is a noble music-roots, is a kind which is based on much of music which has been produced over the last 40 or 50 years.
Obviously there is an "orthodox country", which was later evolving into new approaches (country-rock, country-folk, country-blues, and later Alt-country). Likewise also as "Blues" "Folk" or "jazz" also evolved.
It was through the country-music that the cultural identity of the U.S. established itself worldwide.
Some of the greatest music creators of the U.S., had the chords of country music to its base. Today.
Long before smaller genera "indies", "hipeshop" "raps" do look like they were before something new. Just because something new was needed to sell.
We have come to start accepting nonsense, imagine, the dj's as authors and creators of new musical trends.
dj's are important as drivers of publishers and music, but they are essentially manipulative of music.
Some, succeed by talent and training, go up the music, and it has its merits, but can not be considered true creators of music. Creators of songs.
This is the way to say that the mass media, radio stations. magazines, tv's, should not mislead the younger generation with labels invented, but rather seek to preserve the roots of traditional music, over the baton to new generations, and not "board" in the mercantilist perspective that plagues the world of the music industry, where it seems that anything goes, since it is profitable.
From time to time I visit a "discoteque"-night-club. OMFG!, WTF is that?!! And they call music these sounds of mix-tapes'? I just only put the name of Music to musical works "with father and mother". So, is like that keeps young people distracted and sodomized with these noise-sounds of "loom-automatic-non-stop"? What's worse is that young people consent .....
Because I still remember the time when they we asked a young lady, "the girl wants to dance?"
....you left me at Lefty Frizzell........boring.....words and music....
"Up to the Mountain (MLK Song)" is a folk song written by Patty Griffin. The song touches upon emotions surrounding Martin Luther King, Jr.'s famous 1968 "I've Been to the Mountaintop" speech, given the day before his assassination in Memphis, Tennessee. Originally recorded by Solomon Burke in 2006 and Griffin herself in 2007.
As noted in Wikipedia: "The song has been variously described as "gospely" or "folkie spiritual". In writing about King, Griffin followed other songwriters, such as U2 with "Pride (In the Name of Love)" and "MLK", James Taylor with "Shed a Little Light", and Stevie Wonder, whose song "Happy Birthday" "
I like particularly this song, is "only" one of the best interpretations of great Patty Griffin. This song, by the dimension and significance of his words, is the size of the World. This song was later included in 2007 by Patty Griffgin on their sixth studio album "Children Running Through".
I went up to the mountain
Because you asked me to
Up over the clouds
To where the sky was blue
I could see all around me
Everywhere
I could see all around me
Everywhere
Sometimes I feel like
I've never been nothing but tired
And I'll be walking
Till the day I expire
Sometimes I lay down
No more can I do
But then I go on again
Because you ask me to
Some days I look down
Afraid I will fall
And though the sun shines
I see nothing at all
Then I hear your sweet voice, oh
Oh, come and then go, come and then go
Telling me softly
You love me so
The peaceful valley
Just over the mountain
The peaceful valley
Few come to know
I may never get there
Ever in this lifetime
But sooner or later
It's there I will go
Sooner or later

OK, I confess for the particular post below, to which I was responding, I only read the first paragraph of your post. This paragraph appears like the text of hundreds of similar postings from you that look like concert promotional advertisements, or nascent wikipedia articles. My comment stands. We do not need to see promotional links or advertisements for bands, etc... I am no big fan of your images either. I don't see the point. This is a comment board. An image can indeed serve as a form of commentary, but yours never do serve as such.

I wouldn't call posting relevent artist information clutter or nonsense. A great number of the song comments certainly fall into this category - but not Calypsus' posts.

Ditto. A friend just lost her husband a few days ago... I'm thinking about her, and wondering if I can (or should) introduce her to this song sometime.

Some of the greatest music creators of the U.S., had the chords of country music to its base. Today.
Long before smaller genera "indies", "hipeshop" "raps" do look like they were before something new. Just because something new was needed to sell.
We have come to start accepting nonsense, imagine, the dj's as authors and creators of new musical trends.
dj's are important as drivers of publishers and music, but they are essentially manipulative of music.
Some, succeed by talent and training, go up the music, and it has its merits, but can not be considered true creators of music. Creators of songs.
This is the way to say that the mass media, radio stations. magazines, tv's, should not mislead the younger generation with labels invented, but rather seek to preserve the roots of traditional music, over the baton to new generations, and not "board" in the mercantilist perspective that plagues the world of the music industry, where it seems that anything goes, since it is profitable.
From time to time I visit a "discoteque"-night-club. OMFG!, WTF is that?!! And they call music these sounds of mix-tapes'? I just only put the name of Music to musical works "with father and mother". So, is like that keeps young people distracted and sodomized with these noise-sounds of "loom-automatic-non-stop"? What's worse is that young people consent .....
Because I still remember the time when they we asked a young lady, "the girl wants to dance?"
Seriously!? Blah blah blah o_O What a bore.
absolutely agree. and i love the other comment that explains the song. thanks, guys!

A Lefty Frizzell song "I Want To Be With You Always". Thank you Patty Griffin. Lefty Frizzell (March 31, 1928–July 19, 1975), born William Orville Frizzell, was an American country music singer and songwriter of the 1950s, and a proponent of honky tonkmusic. Fellow Texan Roy Orbison was a devout fan of Frizzell's sound, and in 1988, as a part of The Traveling Wilburys, he chose the name "Lefty Wilbury" to honor his musical hero.
The country-music style is not obsolete and unused genre, as some stupid and unconscious comment as seen in many opinion for the Web and mass media. Prejudices.
Also there are now many misunderstandings and prejudices about the U.S. protest music of the 60s up to today, as in other parts of the world, and about their authors, with the intention of devaluing and bleaching, to forget the past, the noble struggle, claim of rights, for peace, human rights, discrimination and rights of citizenship. But we must remember that these struggles are of yesterday, today and forever. Today, new generations were born in freedom and enjoy the rights enshrined, in the past did not, and should it to their ancestors who fought for it. Despite advances in human history (formal democracy, contitucionais rights, labor rights), we still see today the situation of degradation and forms of slavery, came to light (The New York Times) as the recent case of Apple sub-contracted production to a company based in China, using hand labor devalued, almost slaves, where workers earn below subsistence level. Would be very conviniente forget it all and start again. But there is something called History. That is to say that we must have historical memory, to do well today.
Returning to the theme, rather, the country is a noble music-roots, is a kind which is based on much of music which has been produced over the last 40 or 50 years.

That's a depressing thought...
This gets an 8 right off the bat! Yep! That's a baseball reference, and that, too is a good thing!
Thanks, RP!
