Title track from Gillian's 2001 album. She sings country pretty good for a city gal.

Gillian Welch is fantastic. I was sorry that I missed her on her Australian tour. David Rawlings is also a great guitarist.

Lovely promote - really like this one.

The first time I heard this song was when Sarah Harmer covered it at a show in Montreal. I tried to find a vid of her doing it, but no dice. The original is lovely:)

I am absolutely in love with this song and video. I swear I watch it every other day. Gillian Welch's vocal performance is enthralling. Much <3 here

Awesome promote, you'd think this would crack 30 votes or something wouldn't you?

Gee, thanks everyone. Didn't realise this was so well-liked. I love it too.
