The most graceful person in the music world. Some of the best music I’ve ever heard is Emmy’s. No glamour, no drama, no sexuality. Just pure character through her music and her haunting, angelic voice. She is Simply regal.
Such a haunting voice. So mournful and full of passion. She is my all time favorite singer. She is truly the elder stateswoman of country music. Is there another woman who has aged as gracefully as Emmylou? She is even more beautiful now. This song will be the one that is played for the first solo dance with my bride at our wedding.
This is the first time I’m listening to this song. My loss. Your comments are perfect. ELH is just exactly that. The best of the best. I discovered her late but cannot get through a day without listening to her.
I’ve listened to so many songs of Emmys and her voice is a love of a lifetime....Thank God I got to see you in Eugene Oregon with my kids and girlfriend....Blessed from above !
I think I recall a quote from Emmylou, that she sang "high lonesome" songs? Not many are more lonesome but exquisitely sweet than this tune. Thanks for posting. Cannot even estimate the countless hundreds of times I've heard her sing this, and now decades later its as emotionally gripping as when I first listened.
Dickey Lee and Bob McDill wrote this song and Don Williams first recorded and released the song in 1975. There have been other covers of this great song, BUT NONE COMPARES TO THIS ONE BY EMMYLOU!!!!!!!! Absolutely elegant voicing and accompaniment here.....never to be outdone I don't believe. SO TOUCHING I hold back the tears...................
And yes I am thankful 'You Found Me' in the beginning as yes again 'I Was Just Waiting For You' and in the end when you came to me for 'The Last Dance'......I can listen to these songs now as you are all around me tho you have passed. 'I Needed You and You Came To Me.' To my 'Carl Lee Conner' from his Miss Emily.
Wow this song of Emmylou Harris gives me beautiful unforgettable memories. Every time I listen to this song, it's like I'm listening to it for the first time. Thank you Emmylou, thanks to you, I discovered real Country Music !
who is singing harmony with Emmylou? This is the most beautiful song she sings. I could listen to it non-stop. The music, the voice and the words. Thank you for posting one of her best. Grannyellie
Is that Rodney on harmony and Hank Devito on pedal steel? (lose track so many talented players around her for so many years) Wonderfully perfect arrangement to highlight Emmylou's perfect vocal. Willie was right!
আমি একাকী, অনুরাগী কিন্তু শুধু অপেক্ষা করছিলাম তোমার মত কারো জন্য...💓 Lyrics: Others have touched me Soft in the night Others have kissed me And held me tight Good times and lovers Yes, I've had a few But I was just waiting For someone like you I have been lonely And I have been loved I've grown used to losing What I'm fondest of I can see clearly now My whole life through I was just waiting For someone like you But I never wasted a minute of my time Every road I ever took led me to your side No, I never wasted a minute of my time Every road I ever took led me to your side Don't it seem funny, love That I never knew I was just waiting For someone like you I was just waiting (I was just waiting) For someone like you
