Shawn, no one can either sing a song like you do or write one -- your voice is simply *incomparable* and your songs are so nuanced they draw out of us things we never knew existed ❤
How fabulous , revisiting all my Shawn Colvin favorites , a period of years where her music, album after album captivated me. So lucky to have seen her a while back back here in Melbourne Australia.
I called out at a concert, “Who was Jimmy?” Kind of a stupid question in retrospect. Like you would have replied “Why, Jimmy Hoffa, of course!” You replied, “Ohhhh…just some guy.” “The Facts about Jimmy” is one of my favorites. I can see him, a little fat and balding, in his undershirt and boxers, standing in a dimly lit room. Great lyrics, great music, and instrumentation.
Thank you for making this available. Found Shawn Colvin on Bandcamp site too! Lovely voice and guitar. During COVID-19, awesome in pay service studio streaming once or twice too, before she got back to live touring.
