Anyone who has tried to play that song on the guitar (or almost any of Randy Newman’s songs) knows it’s got tricky and fast chord changes including those diminished chords. Spectacularly well played (and sung)!
Greetings from Italy. It's a dramatic moment for my country, we're locked at home, many people are fighting for life in the hospitals. Your beautiful music helps us to face this difficult period. Thanks!
Please stay healthy and really stay at home if ever possible in this disturbing times. We also do it for the weaker people to keep them alive. Not only in Italy or Germany, but also wordwide. 👍
This is, by far, one of your best Sunday Morning performances. I think it’s because the sentiment behind the lyrics comes from a genuine place in both of your souls, and for each other. Thanks so much for posting.
I don’t think anyone who follows this channel, is concerned about Reina reading a dictionary... Love this cover! Ahhhh! More live streams! Love you guys, stay sane.
Of the hundreds of plays that I’ve watched of probably hundreds of songs that you’ve performed, this one I think is the pinnacle and demonstrates the professionalism, friendship and talent of both of you. Long may you continue to be the best of friends, expand your various talents. I see lots these days of Elle pursuing literary skills which is delightful and not so much of Toni displaying her musical skills. The last few years - 10 or 12 have been made more livable for me through your presence. Take good care of yourselves and your friendship.
You've got a friend in me You've got a friend in me When the road looks rough ahead And you're miles and miles from your nice warm bed You just remember what your all pal said Boy, you've got a friend in me Yeah, you've got a friend in me You've got a friend in me You've got a friend in me You got troubles, then I got 'em too There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you If we stick together, we can see it through 'Cause you've got a friend in me Yes, you've got a friend in me Now, some other folks might Be a little bit smarter than I am Bigger and stronger too, maybe But none of them will ever love you the way I do Just me and you, boy And as the years go by Our friendship will never die You're gonna see, it's our destiny You've got a friend in me You've got a friend in me Yes, you've got a friend in me
Even the couch throw wasn't 'loud' enough to ruin another superbly natural performance. As ever - natural talent at it's very best. Thanks girls - made my day yet again.
Over the years, y'all have just crept right up on me. You're now among my favorites. One day I'll catch a live show.. very much looking forward to that day!
so many things: dictionaries... cheese... I wish I had even an eighteenth of Toni's chops on the guitar... And Friends! Good, good, good friends! We can't lose!! Thanks so much!!
I think that sitting here on self isolation on this particular Sunday morning in March 2020 watching T & R singing this song for us all is going to be one of those memories that I will always keep.
Randy Newman; a modern treasure! You girls did justice to this great song! Very nice vocals as always and the guitar? I’m speechless! Probably bc I just swallowed my pick.
You guys are great. Toni and her amazing guitar playing and Reina’s understated vocals. Love you guys!!!! Hope to catch you out on the east coast at some point.
Nice mellow version of that song. Randy is a unique talent that puts a lot of emotion into the phrasing of his lyrics. Glad that you kept your emotions real and made it your own.
Thank you Reina and Toni! What a WONDERFUL song for today! I just love your smiles, beautiful music, and optimism! This brought me to tears this morning. Love you guys!
good morning lovely lady it's nice to wake up in the morning with a cup of coffee hearing two lovely ladies singing this wonderful song to everyone in the world may God bless both of you🌷🌷

Love your songs, girls, and your always cheerful faces! Thank you for lifting our spirits. Love your songs with Josh and Carson, too. From a couple of fans in Indiana old enough to be your grandparents 😀
Nice, I remember your older cover, but you've improved since then. I love the cheesy part and how uncomfortable Toni is whenever Reina say something cheesy (which is somehow recurring !). can't wait for the next livestream. Stay safe in the meantime.
Wonderful song, if I can just suggest a change in one of the verses. We’re stuck in quarantine... We’re stuck in quarantine.... You got troubles, and I got em too We’ll sit and read the dictionary through Cuz we’re stuck in quarantine.
Love watching Toni play that guitar. All of you young people are so crazy talented. Randy Newman of Welcome back Cotter fame and Short People has always been a favorite! Burlington Bill here, busking from the road and home!
