She came on to him like a slow moving cold front His beer was warmer that the look in her eye She sat on the stool, and she said "What do you want She said Give me a love that don't freeze up inside He said, I have melted some hearts in my time dear But to sit next to you Lord I shiver and shake And if I knew love, well I don't think I'd be here Askin' myself if I had what it takes To melt your icy blue heart Should I start to turn what's been frozen for years Into a river of tears These days we all play cool calm and collected Our lips could turn blue just shooting the breeze But under the frost, we thought he detected A warm blush of red, and the touch of her knee He said you're a beauty like I've never witnessed And I've seen the northern lights dance in the air But I've felt the cold that can follow the first kiss And there's not enough heat in the fires burning there To melt your icy blue heart Should I start to turn what's been frozen for years Into a river of tears To melt your icy blue heart
This is a great version of an incredible song, but my favorite is still John Hiatt's on American Music Shop, where he does the entire first verse with only his electric guitar accompanying. .
I Agree!! Even Though Bonny, Emmy and Ronstadt do Stellar versions.. John Hiatt's Voice reveals and translates his Story telling with gritty authenticity that is Alchemic..he Is the master!!! certainly enjoyed this tremendously though,
angels must sound like this
One of the best Emmy records ever!
You mean BLUEBIRD?
Bonnie Raitt and Emmylou Harris together is a rush.
TEARS!
Best version!!No doubt about it!!!Her magnificent and lovely voice!!!
She came on to him like a slow moving cold front
His beer was warmer that the look in her eye
She sat on the stool, and she said "What do you want
She said Give me a love that don't freeze up inside
He said, I have melted some hearts in my time dear
But to sit next to you Lord I shiver and shake
And if I knew love, well I don't think I'd be here
Askin' myself if I had what it takes
To melt your icy blue heart
Should I start
to turn what's been frozen for years
Into a river of tears
These days we all play cool calm and collected
Our lips could turn blue just shooting the breeze
But under the frost, we thought he detected
A warm blush of red, and the touch of her knee
He said you're a beauty like I've never witnessed
And I've seen the northern lights dance in the air
But I've felt the cold that can follow the first kiss
And there's not enough heat in the fires burning there
To melt your icy blue heart
Should I start
to turn what's been frozen for years
Into a river of tears
To melt your icy blue heart
I love her tribute to John Hiatt here and her many tributes to others like Springsteen and the like. Emmy is the best!
I wish the two of those ladies would sing together more often.
What do you want? She just gave it to ya!
Thanks Emmylou
IT doesnt have to get better than this......TWO GREAT TALENTS
One of the best that you don't hear enough!
great song by John Hiatt

Cet album est excellent !!! Merci Emmylou.
Can't get enough! Love this!

bONNIE ON SLIDE.
His beer was warmer that the look in her eye... Thanks, Mister Hiatt.
You have such a beautiful voice cut the music in half so people can hear YOU Emmylou Harris
The best version stays of course the one by John Hiatt himself...
No it isn't but credit due he wrote it. In essence this is the greatest single vocal of Emmylou's career.
I Agree!! Even Though Bonny, Emmy and Ronstadt do Stellar versions.. John Hiatt's Voice reveals and translates his Story telling with gritty authenticity that is Alchemic..he Is the master!!! certainly enjoyed this tremendously though,
I like this version, but I like Linda Ronstadt's version better. But both are great and of course it is a great song
can't help but think that a wonderful voice can diminish a wonderful song.
@@constancecruz1243 of course the master himself Mr. John Hiatt did it the best. This though is an absolutely beautiful rendition.
Linda and Emmy duetted on this song when they did a joint concert tour 1999/2000
This is a sweet version. But, Linda Ronstadt's cover tops them all.
