I watched Shemekia sing this song over 20 years ago in a small restaurant-like setting in Houston. It gave me chills then and still does, if not more so. Could hear it a 1000 more times.
I discover but not only. I was at a concert in 1992 of Johnny Copeland in Gandia, Spain. Yes ! At the end of the set, he introduced her 10 years old daugther for singing a song. We were impressed. And here she is ! All great love to her, her dad and way of the Blues !
🎸🎸This is unbelieble blues something special this vocal is mindblowing track Shemekia a real blues lady in the raw, brilliant band what a talent give this a listen and you will be sucked into her music world I kid you not passion and emotion for the blues she has 💞💞🎸🎸
Wow!!! What a wonderful song ... what a soul voice has Shemekia ... and that soloist at Fender ... It seems to me that I'm dreaming when I hear this! My God, I don't believe! Thanks for posting such a joy for me ... BRAVO!!!!
This woman's singing gives me goose bumps! The guitarist and bassist are excellent, also. Heard her on 'Blues Town' with Tom Marker, here in Chicago, home of Alligator Records.
I never win at love At love I always lose I keep looking for a good man And I ain't got no clue I can't find no one to love me I guess I'm married to the blues Married to the blues There's a picture by my bedside In a frame that's got a crack Of one of my old lovers Who ain't never comin' back He swore he'd never leave me Then I saw him start to pack Start to pack Oh when you're married to the blues Married to the blues You don't get no band of gold All you get is a lonely cab ride To a bed that's always cold When you're married to the blues Forget that honeymoon All you get is luke-warm lovin' That's over way, way too soon There's a letter inm why pocket It's all torn Torn and frayed The only thing Only thing he left me When he ran Ran away Now when you're married to the blues It gets more lonely everyday Oh... All these blues I knew he would leave me He was never comin' back He left me a torn letter Then he ran away Ran away Married to the blues Oh... All these blues You get so lonely Lonely Lonely Lonely Married to the blues
Heard about her on NPR this morning and yeah, this is great. It sounds like she has a new album out.They played a country song she did on there that sounded hilarious and then there was also a Cajun song and that sounded incredible, and then there was some sort of more like a slave song thing which sounds like it has a lot of depth to it.
To me its an insult to set back and show no emotion. Music is about emotions and feelings. If it ain't moving u then go on. A singer wants to see their performances move a person's feelings.

I just recently discovered Shemekia. Now, I've got 10 albums to buy. Real blues. Nothing better.
Anyone else has got goose bumps? THIS SO IS SOOO POWERFUL
S
Definitely so true
epic
We`have the luck to see her a few years ago in Bern, Switzerland on a small stage. What a voice. Amazing.
I hope you’re doing well ❤
Goose bumps and a stiffy!! LOL This white boy loves his S Copeland.

How is the crowd not louder for this performance??! It snatched my damn wig clear off. You Go Shamekia grrl.
This one is deep, you can't help but just listen and enjoy. I'd love to see Shemekia live again.

Such a beautiful voice. I just want to put on the headphones and crank the volume and melt into my chair listening to her sing.
Incredible voice! Love her time in Sirius XM time. Yep, I get the chills!
She has "IT". Immediately recognizable voice that I can't get enough of
Great stuff! here! her voice, the guitars, the whole band.... it's real Blues...
I have heard many versons of this song, but nobody even come near this one.

Blues from the soul!!!! She is Fantastic!

Her voice is as strong and beautiful as Mahalia Jackson's. Absolute perfection!
The blues guitar is played by Ken Scanlan. He is from Oregon. He plays around Portland when he's not on tour.
Wonderful!!!
she should do way more blues stuff. her voice is perfect for it.

Since everyone is mentioning her voice I wanna go on to mention that insane bass line towards the end..
Here we go, my favorite genre of music being played, in my ancestral country. Amazing..
Danielle Nicole owned this song when she recorded it.
Wowww wonderful song super !!!! 😍!!! Congratulations, your whole band ! Thank you for playing your concerts here in Switzerland !!!¨
Like Father, Like Daughter!
Amazing young lady x
I never win at love
At love I always lose
I keep looking for a good man
And I ain't got no clue
I can't find no one to love me
I guess I'm married to the blues
Married to the blues
There's a picture by my bedside
In a frame that's got a crack
Of one of my old lovers
Who ain't never comin' back
He swore he'd never leave me
Then I saw him start to pack
Start to pack
Oh when you're married to the blues
Married to the blues
You don't get no band of gold
All you get is a lonely cab ride
To a bed that's always cold
When you're married to the blues
Forget that honeymoon
All you get is luke-warm lovin'
That's over way, way too soon
There's a letter inm why pocket
It's all torn
Torn and frayed
The only thing
Only thing he left me
When he ran
Ran away
Now when you're married to the blues
It gets more lonely everyday
Oh... All these blues
I knew he would leave me
He was never comin' back
He left me a torn letter
Then he ran away
Ran away
Married to the blues
Oh... All these blues
You get so lonely
Lonely
Lonely
Lonely
Married to the blues
She is sooo good and humble. Young gal just getting started. Her voice is unmistakable
excelente musica e som.. gostei
My sister, Anita and I, weRe two f her fathers greatest followers and supporters, all over Houston. MR. JOHNNY CLYDE COPELAND, a great blues man.

Lovely song
I’m a little richer for having seen and heard this tututyty😊
Nice song and great performance. Shemekia you have a warm voice and you are so talented. Thank you for sharing this amazing video. Cool guitars :)

Voice & instruments -Amazing!

I swear she gets better as time passes!!!
The whole band is in a kind of transe , they are pouring their hearts and souls into this
I love this blues love song + also sang nicely by danielle nicole & the nortons- amazing music.
Wow! That's great ❤
Excellent drums :) very important instrument.
How can you hate on black people? National treasure!
Easy. Watch the news and see how they victimize everyone.
Because of people like you .
Just listen to the music and beauty of her voice. No judgement
This is the real blues🤗I love it so much 😘💕👍
So glad I read the Mobile Press-Register today online-Found your beautiful voice-Fan-in VA
This is my 20th anniversary of being married to the blues.
Maravilhosa voz e interpretação!!!!! Bravo!Bravo!
La mejor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
just awesome and sweet band
My favorite song. 😍
Wow! Chilled!
Great
Como amo el blues.. Dios.
love you! ❤❤❤❤🇳🇴
A mi modo de ver, el blues de Chicago ha sido dominante en las últimas décadas. Poco se oye de otras clases de blues.
Clap clap clap clap whistle whistle 😊
wow quelle puissance en sa voix et beau vibrato aussi,tout un soul celle ci bravo
If more people translated your comment, it would be the top one.
Excellent
🧡🧡🧡
👋❤❤❤
She made that song hers
😍😍😍😍
Blues...Feels....Great SINGER..TOUCH!...HURRAY!!!
👍
Lay back close your eyes and drift.....
Your in the right spot alright, and so am I. The only difference between us, is that I want a good woman.
Man, can this woman sing or what?
+1
🔥🔥🔥🌹👏
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The crowd is so dead. I'd have been shouting if I was listening to her.
The crowd is respectful. There is the time to shout when the music's over.
To me its an insult to set back and show no emotion. Music is about emotions and feelings. If it ain't moving u then go on. A singer wants to see their performances move a person's feelings.
@@oldmanonthehill56 Agree 100% the music hits your soul
pretty much.. i had the same reaction, playing in Berlin, back in the day... people were still... quiet... and at the end, exploded wwith cheers
When you're feeding your soul with good music, there is no time for shouting... because you have already travelled somewhere I'd describe as heaven.
Does anybody know the name of the guitar player? Amazing performance!
Ken Scandlyn, Arthur Nielson
, with the Les Paul, usually covers the lead spot..
Arthur Nielsen
Now I know where Lana Del Rey´s inspiration comes from: the blues! :)
What the hell is with that vibrato?!
ACH ...
She is good. But Danielle Nicole does a better
version. Danielle Owns the song in her version.
Shemikiah wrote it ....
Chistletoe .Chistletoe
I know she wrote it.
I agree. There is more blues in Danielle Nicole's version even if Shemikiah wrote it. Shemikiah's version is nice, Danielle's tears you apart.
I think they are equally better than anyone else's version
I must agree on this. Shemekia's overused, wide vibrato is ruining it for me.
;)
just nowhere near as good as Danielle Nicole and The Nortons
I never win at love
