This duet is particularly precious. Two artists I've literally grown up with doing a song that unfortunately still has relevance today. Let the music keep our spirits high Amen.
As a lifelong Joan Baez fan, this is--to me--Baez's voice at its most beautiful. Most interestingly, unlike many singers, her voice at its most beautiful wasn't during its prime (extraordinary as it was then). No, this is it. Aged slightly; warm, shimmering, amber-colored, brimming over with feeling. Amazing. And Browne, too. What a song.
You are write there is no better song writer than Jackson Browne, his heart , and humanity , and ability to speak truth to power is in match. Nothing but respect for Him and the beautiful music he has given to us all.
My god what a magnificent song. So beautiful - so mournful and uplifting at the same time. Not just my favorite Jackson Browne song, very possibly one of my favorite songs of all.
Joan Baez is the big sister I never had. Each of her albums was a letter from further down the road of life we all travel. Way before the internet, it was a source of information from outside. Jackson Browne is my soul twin, learning and growing and, now, growing old together. So many of us here in the comments say Jackson Browne writes the soundtrack of our lives. How true.
Never saw this one. My all time fave.. My beloved husband and I use to do this song all the time. I must say this version brought tears remembering our version. Life's just not the same without him😢 beautiful version I can hear my parts and I can hear his as well. What a song.💓
@@seeviegeenie thank you David. 33 yrs. married. I just found your reply here Hard to listen to this song without the tears running down my cheeks. I often wonder if he would have approved of my new guitar and amp. It's been 14 yrs I miss him like it was yesterday. Smh. Hug's to ya ❤️
I feel like I've known her forever; I just turned 80 and she's just 3 months younger. Jackson seems like a younger brother who amazes us all. Along with a few others, these people are the inspirations of my life. Thanks for the music, lovely people!
this is without doubt or exception the keenest elegy to the 1960s in the US for those who were here and there and I was only an afterthought brat but in 1972 I stood all od ten years old at the winding of the Hudson Riven below Storm King with my adult cousin Sarah looking downstream and she said to some one. "Nops, we'll call that A Thing. Dunno was Sarah, or another cousin Alison said it. That is my personal history efolks.
I haven't seen this one before, very moving. I've seen you both in concert over the years and together you've created magic. I'm so moved by the words of your music as well as the composition of the song with just about every one you've ever done. It seems that your work is even more profound at this July 14, 2022 date. Thank you so much for continuing to make music.
I am 6 years younger thn JB,inthe early seventies,I had been disowned by my parents,I was adrift on journeys to nowhere,I soaked up everything he did in the70s,& I dont know what I would have done without him !!
Sure..thought you'd never ask. let's all write a song the world shall call When the Light that seemed Lost within Us became Free Again...we've got the power now!! Amen my Sisters and Brothers. we've got it now
Some but saw the Sunshine.... Some but Knew the Rain..... While for Most of Many it was Meaning in Moment.... that Shattered. As in the Bold'n'Olden Rings of Youth.... they were Circling their Pain.... till their Wings once.... O so Fine.... no longer Mattered.... As the Sands.... Slipped through the Openings.... and with Fingers Stained by their Guilded Things.... They Reached Out for Return to their Broken Hearts in Refuge.... As Refracted Time was Torn into.... the Deluge.... Now Let Our Muse but Teach Our SpiritHighs..... Let Our Use Not Teach Our Children Lies.... Let Creation Reveal All Secrets....To Our Eyes.... As the Light that's Lost Within us.... Reaches the Skies....
❤️✌️❤️ 🙏❤️🙏 ♾️☯️♾️ time is not on our side.... summer in the southern hemisphere... it's November here in Arizona and New Mexico where I live... lots of beach.. not much ocean 🌊... temporarily... global warming is all about the ice sinking at the poles... maybe all at once.. from the el niño current... like jumping in a full bath . 😭 keep singing this song loud and clear... please... por favor... I'm building personal size dirigibles... feeling a little bit like Noah.. 🤠 in a cowboy hat
I came of age listening to Jackson and Joan...I miss those days so very very much..and this song in particular pulls at memories long buried...life is precious,so very precious..
Absolutely outstanding performance. Love Joan Baez & Jackson Browne performing together! Is this on any of Joan's or Jackson's albums (as being performed as a duo.)? I know that Joan recorded it on her album but not as a duo with Jackson.
From the "Joan Baez 1989 PBS Special with guest Jackson Browne" - You can hear the entire 14 songs that I posted on my youtube channel @SteveMcRayMusic
