It's hard to imagine a more enchanting and talented trio than The Staves. I've been a fan of their music for years and when I received word that they would do the series, I bugged out. They were a treat to work with - charming and funny - and they are capable of making music that heals and inspires. A regular heap of rare and impressive talents, The Staves are!
I believe that we've featured three covers on the series, two of which have been Jackson Browne songs. Fun fact: he wrote this song when he was 16! I can say with a sense of certainty and relief that no one will ever want to cover anything I wrote when I was 16.
For this Yellow Couch Session, I used Peluso Microphone Lab's P-12 in not-quite-omni mode. The band's blend of harmonies and dynamics are so incredibly tight that I felt using more than one vocal mic would be excessive. For this song, we used Peluso's P-28 small diaphragm tube condenser on Jessica's acoustic guitar. I did very little with regard to processing this audio because it really didn't need much.
All audio for Yellow Couch Sessions is recorded and mixed by Steven Foxbury of Yellow Couch Studio. Video for this session was shot and edited by my main man, Matt Dayak.

It amazes me that Jackson Browne wrote this at the age of 16.
How come?
@@mikeyb4344 Why doesn't it amaze you? You don't see anything special about that?
@@mikeyb4344 what sort of profound “failures” does a sixteen year old have that compels him to write such a song? It’s incredible
@@dts7824 I guess the obvious retort is, how many timeless classics, covered by a wide variety of well known artists, do you know written by 16 year olds? If it wasn't unusual, there'd be lots of them.
“Please don’t confront me with my failures
I have not forgotten them”

I showed my friend this cover and that part hit him hard lol

Dear Jackson, Get the ladies on stage with you soon.
These are my favorite Staves performances. These studio sessions with great acoustics.
Quite possibly the prettiest thing on the Internet. ♥
nothing but pure musical class as always from the staves
I can listen to this song over and over for the rest of my life and never get tired of it. When I'm out working it's in my head. These women are incredible. I would love one day tickets shake their hands and talk about music with them
Me too, this is beautifully melancholic. I'd like this played at my funeral.
They just seem like the sweetest girls! Celebrate.
I've been out walking
I don't do too much talking these days
These days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had
A chance to
I've stopped my rambling
I don't do too much gambling these days
These days
These days I seem to think about
How all these changes came about my ways
And I wonder if I'd see another
Highway
I had a lover
I don't think I'd risk another these days
These days
And if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
It's just that I've been losing
So long
La, la, la, la, la
La, la
I've stopped my dreaming
I won't do too much scheming these days
These days
These days I sit on cornerstones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten
Please don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them
From the heart and soul of a 16 year old! Unbelievable!
Guitarist is a honey
these angelic voices...like helium...like breating life directly...FANTASTIC!
I probably listen to this version most days. I think I might like it to be played at my funeral service.
The guitarist, fallen for her a thousand times.
A pure combination of angelic soothing voices and a beautiful selection of well plucked notes creating a fresh, uplifting and original feel. what an achievement. x
Not bad at all. My favourite cover of this song is Glen Campbell's, he really provided a fresh take on this classic by slightly revising the melody as well as the intonation of various words and phrases, which ultimately results in the track having a deeper, somber feel to it.
These days.. I listen to this most days
You know a performance is beyond great when even the artists themselves give each other a look and throw in a little smile like they're giving each other a compliment for a job well done. Love these ladies so much!
Quite possibly the most beautiful thing to have come into English folk in a good while.
I hate that I never know which channel will have a The Staves video.
Keep searching. Its like finding a diamond every time. :-)
beautiful x
Truly Beautiful.. Heard this on BBC Radio 2 today. Fantastic ;-)
Thank you ❤
Another slice of sweet, harmonic perfection from the beautiful Staves. Cannot wait to see them live in Glasgow this June!
this is sooo good! i'm beyond happy to find a clear recording of their cover after hearing them sing this live at the troubadour! thank you very much for uploading :).
Oh Lord! can break one in half!
They astound me EVERY TIME.
This is perfection.
I bought a Peluso mic because of these clips, and discovered this group, which has since become one of my very favourite. Win win.
warm regards from Germany...and Thank you so much for the wonderful music...this touches my soul...
A Staves cover of Jackson Browne. Wow oh wow

I was just singing this song this morning. These ladies are the beeessssttt. Great capture
Thanks, Kristiana! It was a treat to work with them.
Still one of my favourite ever performances. I am dreaming of seeing these girls live!!!!!!
Well, I've been out walking
I don't do that much talking these days
These days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do for you
And all the times I had the chance to
And I had a lover
But it's so hard to risk another, these days
These days
Now, if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
Well, it's just that I've been losin' for so long
Well, I'll keep on movin', movin' on
Things are bound to be improving these days
One of these days
These days I'll sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them
I normally hate remakes but this is truly fantastic
this version is completely new---i would love a guitar tutorial of this!!!!
Excellent cover. And right at 0:35 the listener is hit by how great their voices sound together with spot-on harmony.
Please come to North Carolina. Pleeeeeeease
Beautiful take on a really nice Jackson Browne song from back when...I love the harmonies & blend of these Staves singing "These Days" --
Confusingly beautiful. I'am waiting for a Linda Perhacs cover now (Chimacum Rain for example..), ladies..
A finger picked guitar, beautiful harmonies and meaningful lyrics= bliss.
Nico is smiling down on them
jackson browne wrote this song :)
Catherine Jacoby Catherine Jacoby I almost wrote it off when I heard the first voice in falsetto.. whoa, I am so fucking impressed! Yes, Nico is smiling down AND Jackson Browne!..... Lovely performance gals!!!
Love this :)
Sweet!
F@#$cking brilliant. Luv it!!!!!!!!
Big love - so fantastic!
perfect combination of artist and song.
wooooooooow!
Best cover

12 out of 10
BRAVE. BRAVE. BRAVE!!!
Heavenly, soo beautiful.
Never liked this song until today ❤
I love the music these girls make
Damn so good..
Thank you
Nice version of a nice song.
Stunningly beautiful music and performance. I got obsessed with this song for about 3 weeks after finding it on a Spotify playlist about 3 years ago. Now I have it back again with this excellent rendition. Thank you.
🔥
Some of the best harmonizing period....❤️
❤
Right when I thought they couldn't get any better they do my favorite Nico's song. AND make it better. Well I'll be damned
The first time that I ever heard this song is when it was so perfectly placed in The Royal Tennenbaums. What a great song.
Vocal harmony talent wise, one can only think of 'the Lennon sisters. There's also the added bonus of flawless beauty and a vibe grounded in Joni, Neil and Bon.
lol Bon
Someone, somewhere...please make a guitar tutorial
2:17.... 😍🙏
Lipstick!!
Incredible beauty of the guitar girl. Superb music of the trio, too.
A beautiful rendition of a Jackson Browne song. Loved it!
This cover gave me that nice arms to feet, tingling sensation when you hear really good music
💗Another great song ladies. I'm listening while I'm tired as fuck. That song broke my
🍒Staves cherry🍒
👍🏼❤️🙏🏻
So incredibly talented. Love the Staves so much. Jess, you in particular never cease to impress!
Jessicaaaaaaaa
Emily is so beautiful
I was listening to Hello Again by Bridget St John and thought here's a forgotten song that deserves the Staves treatment. Jess could do justice to the guitar and for once Emily could take the lead - it would need her lovely low pitched voice. At any rate, more Emily please!
James Joyce yes!!
What are the staves names
great ! but would have been even better in stereo
CONNERYDUBBERS That's very true! I wonder why it's mono? Cheers mate 😎
Tahiti Slim because it was recorded using an omni microphone on the vocals and a single cardioid microphone on the guitar. How would you present this in stereo?
oh man I love this song! Jackson Browne / NICO / The Velvet Underground any version it's all good - this cover is super beautiful though
Jess marry me xxx billy.
huh, and I was expecting lezbo music
