Out of all the songs that Alison and Union station does, there is not a bad one in the bunch. Alison's voice is a pure a crystal. The lyrics and music are wonderful.
In my human life, I saw many beautiful women as actresses, artists, singers, top models, but I never felt a passion, fierce, for some, platonic, idyllic love, perhaps, Catherine Zeta Jones , Some other, Sharon Stone. More.
Yaa I don't know how she slipped my radar all these years, I guess I have been in a coma. Any how she and here band are the freshest thing I have heard in a long while even though it's mush but I love mushy music😂
Up until the Grammys went PC Alison Krauss was the No.1 Female Grammy Artist in History, and when Artistic Ability is concerned today that has still never changed, she is imo the No. 1 Country Artist of all time, Gender Notwithstanding. Alison never got Belt Heavy with her vocals, but her voice was so Beautiful no one cared, it was and still is Brilliant, she also played Fabulous Violin, and she wrote and sang the Pure Country Genre, Blue Grass.
idk about underrated ... she is tied with quincy jones as most grammy awards received by a person still living. granted more people should know more about her, and the radio should be playing more of these songs, not just once in blue on country stations.
you're absolutely right. I'm aware of her achievements. I think what I meant was there should have been more people know of her and her music. Her music is just beautiful
Danny Bui that i complllleeettelllyyy agree with. even though shes a big hit with the critics, the people need to listen to her alottt more. none of these pop teeny girls of today, no offense to them
Under rated? She is only the #1 or 2 Grammy winners of ALL TIME. Probably shows your taset and listening in music has evolved to a higher plane. CONGRATULATIONS You have arrived.
As of 2012, she has won 27 Grammy Awards from 41 nominations, making her the most awarded living recipient, three behind the most honored artist, classical conductor Sir Georg Solti. She is also the most awarded singer and the most awarded female artist in Grammy history. At the time of her first award, at the 1991 Grammy Awards, she was the second youngest winner ever (currently tied as third youngest).
How can a woman be so beautiful, so hot, so sensuous with a voice so soothing and yet she seems like the girl next door. I've never seen this before; there is nobody else anywhere that can do this.
@Alison Krauss I support your music and would love your personal info. While you are at ir can you pay all of my bills and give me a substantial monthly stipend?
There is not another voice on earth with the same beauty Alison's voice has. Simply perfection. There's a sadness in it that she makes us feel so deeply. It's eternal.
I love Alison! she sings like an 👼 angel, she has the most beautiful voice in the whole wide world, I never get tired of listening to her amazing voice hugs from Arizona.🤗😍💖😷🌹👼👋👋👍
She has the most beautiful voice. I am so lucky to have seen her perform many times. We are so lucky to have her and all the fantastic musicians that elevate her!!
Soothing voice...soft on the eyes...wish Alison would come out with some Red Book Hymnal songs like Alan did...her voice grabs my attention every time I hear her...
Let's just say I have the education, experience, and talent to know and appreciate a great band when I hear one. They make it same simple and easy...it's not. To be that tight takes hours of practice and above all talent.
I still love you, Alison Krauss, with all my heart, mind, body, and soul. You are the most beautiful girl in the world, not to mention the best singer, ever. I still remember when I first saw you on the Lonesome Pine special back in the early 90's. I finally got to put a beautiful face to the extremely beautiful voice on the radio. You voice stopped me "in my tracks". I was and still are mesmorized by you. I love you, Alison.
She is definitely not underrated . 27 Grammy's - a heart of gold, and a soft spoken ,God given talent . Few can be so pure in tone ,considering she is a 4 octave soprano . Freddy Mercury also had that same operatic abilty. Her voice is a healing suave and Spirit filled
@Alison Krauss Good day and thank you for your response !!! It would be an honor to receive information on a personal level👍👍 I have been a fan for a very long time , and my appreciation for your music continues to grow ! Have a fabulous day - awaiting your response. Respectfully Matt 😁😁
Evan ShikoraYes..I know he is the best!! I have heard him play with the Earls of Leicester and with other bands ..in person and watched all of the videos I can find that he is in.. back to when he was a child!!
All music in one way or another is formulaic. It was original the first time it was used and then formulaic every time after. That doesn't mean bad , there are only so many chord progressions that sound pleasing to the ear and if you come up with new lyrics that don't sound trite god bless ya ! If you haven't ever tried to write a song, go for it. You'll see what I mean.
Well I'm a hard core rock and roller and 70's Classic Rock is my music, but I heard Alison Krauss for the first time last night.....and haven't stopped listening. As close to perfection as one can hope to hear. Angelic, oh most definitely. She sings right to your soul. So grateful to have found the videos of this amazing talent! The last live concert I went to was Pearl Jam. The next will be Alison Krauss. Something tells me I won't be disappointed.
I turned 12 in 1980 so I know what you are saying. Fav band is Boston with the Cars and B-52's close behind and spent a lot of time in the British 80's metal invasion. Liked how rock got dirty after the hair bands with Grunge but then grunge got (lack of a better term) sad. Not dark or scary or in your face or what have you but just sad. "Don't call me Daughter...." not a song I want to bang my head to. Don't get me wrong, I had 10 before anyone I knew and it wasn't on the radio and really liked it until everyone had it and it was on the radio 24/7. Then it was nothing but Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Sound Garden, STP..... and I just stepped away from it and moved to the college stations (99.1 WHFS!!! until they went that way). I herd AKUS for the first time by swapping CD's (when we did that way back when) with a friend in 2003. Always liked how bluegrass sounded so clean and on my stereo it sounded real good but nothing more then just stopping along the dial at a radio station if their was a song on. Well we were at a party and are talking about the host's sound system and I mention how good mine sounds playing bluegrass. Not long and the call goes out to all the guests for a blue grass CD. Nothing came back but a AKUS Live cd. We put it in, no one there but one couple had a clue who AKUS was, we were all just shocked. A double CD from beginning to end and no one had a thought to change it. I didn't leave without a copy. Got it home and a few days later I put it in to give it a try on my system and from that point on the CD's followed me from truck (have a nice system in it also) to house for months. Since then I have been to two AKUS shows (they tour so little) and both (besides being low volume) were better then the CD's they were touring for. Allison is the real deal and the stuff she does with people like Brad Paisley (Whiskey Lullaby is truly a great song) or Robert Plant are really great but there is something about when Allison and Union Station get together. They just compliment each other layer after layer. Not like one just makes the other better but all of them make everyone multiple times better from being already award winning solo players. Again from someone who loves bands like Rush, Muse and Dream Theater, AKUS is about as close to music perfection I have ever herd.
This is such a wonderful song! And I just recognized the bits of the clips where Alison is walking through the streets of a city as Nashville downtown. One of my favourite cities in the United States. Not surprising that she's such a talented country music/ bluegrass artist, and Nashville is the music capital of the country!
I was on Classic Country radio in the 90's when she recorded "Baby Now That I Found You" and Keith Whitley's "When You Say Nothing At All". She was a little chunky back then and cute. Fell in love with her back in those days.
I love this cd, saw her in concert with union station when it was released. The set decor was equally gorgeous as this woman and her voice. 100% magnificent! 💖
Sometimes a part of you that died a long time ago is stirred to life by the clarion call of angelic music. I don't figure it happens to everyone and certainly not by the same song, but it happens to me and this song is one of them. So you listen to it again, and it sort of happens again, but not like the first time. You get diminishing returns the more you listen, until you realize that it was only a memory, no matter how intense it was, and you sink back into bittersweet melancholy. Such is life.
Every time I listen to her sing, I just can't believe there's a woman who can sound that hauntingly beautiful. And then, when the boys harmonize with her,it. just gets better. AMAZING. I find myself listening to them every day now. I'm hooked!
Had the privilege of seeing AKUS in North Little Rock Arkansas. I'm from East Texas and knew that this may be my only opportunity to see them. Best concert ever!!! I was truly mesmerized and couldn't believe I was actually listening to AKUS live. Alison you are hands down my favorite. I may never meet you in person but can't wait till we meet in heaven and I hear you singing with the angels, right where you belong. Love ya!!!
