Amanda Sky It's so sad how he looks now. I know that I shouldn't care about it and shouldn't interfere into his life. We can't know how he feels now but he seems to be not only a brilliant musician but also such a great human being and I prefer seeing him like that than last summer when he looked so sick and exhausted. Nevertheless, I hope that my impression was just wrong and that he's still ok now :)
no kidding. i was fortunate enough to see him at carnegie hall this past november, and what immediately struck me was how powerful and rich his voice actually is. it really fill up the room. studio albums tend to lose that, but I wouldn't deny that he is becoming a much better singer.
our love’s a protective poison but you are your mother’s child, and she’ll keep you for a while but one day you’ll be grown, then you’ll be on your own halloween costume, lookin’ real cute, with your pillow case full, and your astronaut suit your cousin, the cowboy, he’s eyein’ your loot better watch your snicker’s bar
out on the diamond, you’re up to bat, chewing your big league, adjusting your hat taking a swing, hearing it crack, look at that apple fly tears will dry if you give them time, life’s a rollar coaster, keep your arms inside fear, that’s the big emotion
but you are your mother’s child, and she’ll keep you for a while, but one day you’ll be grown, and you’ll be on your own. posing for pictures, cap and gown, summer’s coming, driving ‘round town everyone’s askin’ what you’re gonna do now i know you’re gonna make us laugh. find your sweetheart, treat her so kind, take her to dinner, kiss her goodnight i couldn’t teach you,but soon you’ll realize that she’s the only thing that matters
Conor. And Conors voice has given no fucks towards improvement, nor has he cared what anyones thinked... Since the 90s. hes coulda been a "STAR"...but hes never left that mentality.......the mentality of Omaha...thats why i love him....if he did....id still love him. but itd be unlikeable. Conor realz...zzZzzz
i remember the day you appeared on this earth your eyes like an ocean, i got blood on my shirt and from my camera angle, it looked like it hurt, but your mama had a big old smile we drove you home, saw your yellowing skin packed a few things and drove you back again stayed up all night, worrying, wonderin’ what was going to make it better? broken bones heal if you set them right get your fine tooth comb from the barber’s side
He looks really healthy here, the glow of his skin and such

Tears will dry if you give them time. Life's a roller coaster, keep your arms inside.

He performed this when I saw him last week. It was an incredible show, hope you come back to Texas soon
our love’s a protective poison
but you are your mother’s child, and she’ll keep you for a while
but one day you’ll be grown, then you’ll be on your own
halloween costume, lookin’ real cute,
with your pillow case full, and your astronaut suit
your cousin, the cowboy, he’s eyein’ your loot
better watch your snicker’s bar
I was there in st paul, it was so awesome. He played this.
out on the diamond, you’re up to bat,
chewing your big league, adjusting your hat
taking a swing, hearing it crack,
look at that apple fly
tears will dry if you give them time,
life’s a rollar coaster, keep your arms inside
fear, that’s the big emotion
Who is watching this in 2020....?
How was 2020 already 4 years ago
thank you so very much for posting! much better sounding that the other version going around. great filming.
beautiful song!
really nice
but you are your mother’s child, and she’ll keep you for a while,
but one day you’ll be grown, and you’ll be on your own.
posing for pictures, cap and gown,
summer’s coming, driving ‘round town
everyone’s askin’ what you’re gonna do now
i know you’re gonna make us laugh.
find your sweetheart, treat her so kind,
take her to dinner, kiss her goodnight
i couldn’t teach you,but soon you’ll realize
that she’s the only thing that matters

anybody have lyrics for this song?
damn, he looks..... grown up. Vaguely (vaguely!) reminiscent of Mark Mulcahy, both in voice and in hair, haha. It's a compliment, I assure you.
i know you;re gonna make a splash* ??
Is this about Amy's kid?
I think it's in your astronaut suit idk
i remember the day you appeared on this earth
your eyes like an ocean, i got blood on my shirt
and from my camera angle, it looked like it hurt,
but your mama had a big old smile
we drove you home, saw your yellowing skin
packed a few things and drove you back again
stayed up all night, worrying, wonderin’
what was going to make it better?
broken bones heal if you set them right
get your fine tooth comb from the barber’s side
better watch your Snickers bar
terrible
beautiful
