And I love that they split the royalties 3 ways equally no matter who the lead writer is. Phil and Tim are each amazing songwriters, IIRC, Phil wrote "The Story" and Tim wrote "Most of All", which are two of the Brandi Carlile band's top songs.
I love this, though there will be many that say nasty, ugly things! My daughter is gay and I will stand by her and love her till my last breath! It’s funny about the ice because my Court eats it all the time!
I love that this song is so well received. It's about time we got country music sung from different perspectives. I hope this song and group opens more doors for more queer artists and songs to feature in country music. Progress! Yay!
i read someone saying it feels a bit disrespectful that straight ppl wrote this and now use a gay singer 'as a prop' to make this a ~revolutionary~ gay song... lmao can you imagine being bitter about that??? this IS a revolutionary song! ya sure it would've been even better if brandi had written it, but man i'm just so glad this exists now! and on top of its relevance, it sounds beautiful 🥰
How many "straight" songs have been written by closeted gay artists? Also, these people need to read the credits to many of their favorite songs which have been written and performed by totally different people. It's a beautiful collaboration of talent.
@@lynnitrobe lmfao biggots say shit like that but don't know that brandy clark and shane mcanally, two openly gay artists, wrote like half the songs their favorite singers sing. jason and amanda were just sensitive enough to know that the straight experience isn't the norm and know that the song isn't their to sing, simple as that.
"...the women commissioned legendary Nashville tailor Manuel to create four glittery, rhinestone-cowgirl suits, each in a different color and each with the wearer’s last name embroidered in script on the back. ..."
That Brandi Carlile sure can SANG.. Loved the introduction Jason a class act Greetings from Dublin Ireland brother and sisters incredible SONG... Incredible Lyrics a women with a careful heart . .Guy Clark smiling down from heaven...a gay country and western Song Sure why NOT....
This is a damn good song! Loving it from Helsinki. Found out about Highwomen bc Yola came to Helsinki, a couple years back and this expat was like What?!!
I have been in love with the song from the first time I hear it last year... Thank you spotify and your recommendation. Now, I am a huge fan of Brandi and The Highwomen of course :)
Ran from Sheryl's show on the opposite side of the Fort to get to their performance, caught this song just it was starting. Too much fun, they were phenomenal.
I was listening to this performance live across East Passage, in Jamestown, RI. Nice to have these great clips of the whole weekend. However, Jason Isbell must know that his song bears more than a passing resemblance to "Bartender's Blues"....by George Jones and, later, James Taylor. If you're going to borrow, then borrow from the best!
I see you watch her from across the room Dancing her home in your mind Well it takes more than whiskey to make that flower bloom And by the third drink you'll find out she's mine I've loved her in secret I've loved her out loud The sky hasn't always been blue And it might last forever Or it might not work out But if she ever leaves me it won't be for you She loves wild horses and tumbling dice She don't have a single tattoo She'll drink all the liquor and leave you the ice That's too much cologne, she likes perfume I've loved her in secret I've loved her out loud The sky hasn't always been blue And it might last forever Or it might not work out But if she ever leaves me it won't be for you If she ever leaves it's gonna be for a woman with more time Who's not afraid to let her dreams come true If she ever gives her careful heart to somebody new Well it won't be for a cowboy like you Well I've loved her in secret I've loved her out loud The sky hasn't always been blue It might last forever Or it might not work out But if she ever leaves me it won't be for you If she ever leaves me it won't be for you
Thank you for writing out the lyrics. As much as the song sounded beautiful, I couldn't fully understand the lyrics when they sang them. I'm so happy to be able to read them now, thanks to you. All the best!
The heterosexuals nowadays are just so much better nowadays then they used to be. I'm so glad they've come around. Now if only the country stations in North Carolina would play this ....
Lyrics… I see you watch her from across the room Dancing her home in your mind Well, it takes more than whiskey to make that flower bloom By the third drink you'll find out she's mine I've loved her in secret I've loved her out loud The sky hasn't always been blue It might last forever Or it might not work out If she ever leaves me, it won't be for you She loves Wild Horses and Tumbling Dice She don't have a single tattoo She'll drink all the liquor and leave you the ice That's too much cologne, she likes perfume I've loved her in secret I've loved her out loud The sky hasn't always been blue And it might last forever Or it might not work out If she ever leaves me, it won't be for you If she ever leaves, it's gonna be for a woman with more time Who's not afraid to let her dreams come true If she ever gives her careful heart to somebody new Well, it won't be for a cowboy like you Hey, I've loved her in secret I've loved her out loud The sky hasn't always been blue It might last forever Or it might not work out If she ever leaves me, it won't be for you If she ever leaves me, it won't be for you
Er erzählt, dass anfangs manche dachten, der Song wäre einer wie jeder sexuelle Country-Pop und dann kam ein besonderer Tag. Da stellt er sich vor, dass vielleicht nur Brandi Carlile dieses Lied singen würde und es ein schwuler Country-Song wäre. Also hat er das Lied aus dieser Perspektive geschrieben Amanda und ihr erster Chris Hopkins aus Nashville Tennessee zu sein. Nur was er nicht bedacht hat war, dass sie dieses Lied mitnehmen müssen, um es Carla zu bringen und sagt dann, dass er nicht schwul ist, also nicht die ganze Zeit. Dann dacht er, er nimmt einen Bürgerrechtsfilm von Spike Lee. Aber sie liebt diesen schwulen Country-Song und sie lieben den auch.
