‘Need you Now’ was a great song.
Who knows where they’ll go. They have really taken off.

They don’t know how to write lyrics like that any more.

You're so right. They used to say so much with so few words, now it's just the reverse.

Thats a good song...

What is Iris Dement doing these days? I love her...

Have not seen nor heard of her in a while...

She has a voice of an angel... my opinion...

My Town comes to mind...

I loved that.
Sort of brought a tear to my eye remembering circumstances in my own family.

I thought it was “Our Town”, which was great; but I bought an album of hers later to hear some more of that sound and found out she is a dadgum communist. The lyrics were like those of Pete Seeger and Woodie Guthrie.

In my humble opinion, they are the best group ever.
As good as David Ruffin was, Paul Williams might have been better...

I liked that...a little to slow for me, I’m just more familiar with Sinatra’s version....great song either way.

Heres another GREAT LOVE song from a totally different genre-
The Grateful Dead—From the Heart of Me—
check it out, its really nice—
song starts at 1:29—

Gets to me too.

Having lost the love of my life many years ago, the line
"When one of is gone and one is left to carry on".....always brings a tear to the eye.

Yeah, she’s commie...

Damn, just damn...

She has just the sweetheart/momma voice, ya know? Too bad she’s a dumbass...

When I was younger and dumber, I thought she was cool...

Now that I am older and not as dumb, well, she just sucks... lol!

I still love her voice from the old days...

It’s ‘Yeah, baby..yeah baby..yeah baby..yeah baby..’

Not always.
