I’m not saying anything everyone else hasn’t already said - her songwriting talent is next level. My heart and soul go to a special place when I listen to her music. She is in a class by herself. ❤ MCC!
There is nothing Mary Chapin Carpenter does that I do not like. Every nuance in her voice , even the way she stands in front of the mic. It is what all performers should aspire to.
We have been given the opportunity to celebrate our solitude in these scary times--please take this time alone to read and write and reflect and make amends to those with whom you are estranged. Listen to the music of beautiful souls like MCC, take it into your hearts and lives, and count your blessings not your fears.
MCC songs are as poignant, melancholy, grounded and serene as, say, Gordon Lightfoot's are bold, earnest, righteous, idealistic and earthy. I will always treasure both of these artists, but songs like this one, here, will really sustain me into my twilight years. Oh, this is lovely.
Lyricist extraordinaire ...........a wordsmith/tunesmith 'Rembrandt' with a painter's brush and palette of lyrics and melody evoking emotions that takes the listener to a soulful or joyful journey of their choosing...... her haunting signature sound of alternate tuning chord arrangements/progressions compliments her soulful voice as only the tonality of her 'piano-esque' guitar style can do ...... thanks for sharing
This is really nice. I send my brother youtube videos of music I like. Being a Lucinda Williams fan, I sent a video of Lucinda singing Passionate Kisses and mentioned how the song was the gift that launched Mary's career. Thought to see what Mary is doing and came across this. It makes me very happy to see an artist persist.
Solitude, beautiful song. So can relate to these lyrics. Find myself with camera in hand attempting to catch that last piece of the sky's day. Stay safe one all.!! 🇨🇦
I honestly have found my all time favorite song...I always loved Mary Chapin Carpenter. I often wondered did she know how wonderful she was/is. its the first song I truly felt a connection to. Wonderful singer/guitar player and songwriter.
A few nights ago I got to see one of my most favorite artists, perhaps the finest lyricist of her generation. She doesn't know it but she wrote this song for me.

I feel the same way.
Oh you are good at your art. Your pictures shine. They are so beautiful. Thank you.
Without a doubt, the greatest female songwriter of the last 40 years.......everything good music should be...........magnificent!
My absolute favorite singer and songwriter. No one gets me like her, even though we never met. I do share her birthday though.
What fabulous lyrics and musical blending. X
So Beautiful love your magic music xoxo xoxo
Her voice and music is a place of refuge from the indifference and insane acceleration of the world outside my windows.
Same

Brilliance...like the light from a distance star , that's MCC in every song xo
I've always loved her sad eyes, brow etched as she sings. Here, no makeup, hair tied back, she came to sing, to tell a story. Absolutely beautiful.
She is wearing makeup
That voice, that guitar, simply beautiful
Pure genius! MCC, you are hands down the best story teller with a heart and soul for the ages!

This makes my heart ache. Such beauty in a song.

‘Almost home’ is criminally underrated
I love you Chapin. You speak to my soul.
I love you Mary. I listened to your song tonight with Joe Diffe and I cried. You’re the best!
this song has helped me more times than I can count.
I've loved her voice and music since the 80s. She feels like family. 💙
Beautiful....would love to hear her & Roseanne Cash
Do a duet together ❤️ ✨️ 💕
She is one of the Most beautyful songwriters i ever came to know. So true.

Hi Mark, I feel that MCC wrote it for me as well. A great "anthem for introverts".
@@071949 I agree!!
This song really does describe me also...I am arranging for it to be played at my funeral etc
..amazing that she can make a guitar sound like that... like a dream... like a prayer. 😔
Better as the years go by! God given talent!
You and me too Mary... love you.
She sings from the heart. Down to earth and true!

Lovely song and sung M.C.C. Thanks for another beautiful song!
Wow! This song speaks to me. Thank you, MCC
Agree that MCC is one of the finest lyricist of our time. I so wish she would write a quiet non-jukebox musical. So much emotion in her songs.
She has many.
She looks a bit sad however I think she has a wonderful natural beauty
Too good.
🥰
amazing one of the best
Ok...WOW!
