A tiny bit of bad language in this.

Ha, I love this song, and have had ever since it came out.

What's great is that I hear it a lot on movie and tv soundtracks now. I think the last time was on Big Little Lies.

That whole album is pretty good actually. My favorite track is Factory.



Edit: On second thought, after listening to the album again, This Life is easily my favorite track, both musically and lyrically.

Yeah, I was watching Big Little Lies when I heard it. I think it was played on Orange Is The New Black too.

It's been awhile since I listened to that record, but it is terrific. I loved her record that came out last year as well.

Mike Masse's Africa cover sent me on a Youtube spiral on his channel. His cover of Linger is a close second for me

Listening to Mac McCaughan's Non-Believers tonight, and wondering why it wasn't released under the Portastatic name.

I wish more people knew about what a goddam amazing musician Lyle Lovett is. Most people only know him as "that guy that married Julia Roberts for a while", or "that guy with the crazy hair and ugly face".

Oh my friends, he's so much more than that. How many country artists do YOU know that include a cello solo in one of their big hits?

Such a beautiful artist. He needs more attention.

Heck, I can't throw a Lyle Lovett recommendation out there without this clip, featuring Steven Wright!

The missus and I were Lyle Lovett stalkers for quite a while.

Most memorable concert was at Carnegie Hall in New York, Lyle Lovett and the Large Band with a guest appearance by the Harlem Gospel Choir helping with “Church.”

Saw him and the Large Band twice - separate years - at the incredible, ancient, Majestic Theater in San Antonio, Texas. The theater alone was worth the trip.

And in Vegas and a bunch in Calgary.

This is one of those songs that if someone mentions it I have to stop whatever I'm doing and listen to it.

I'm sure that "Church" with that choir would have been amazing.

My favorite album is he and the Large Band playing Live in San Antonio. I think it's just called "Live In Texas". I would have to assume it was that same theater they were playing on the album.

I'm sure there are probably a few U2 haters in here, but I ain't one of them. This song is just flat out fantastic. Love the way the Edge's guitar comes in around the 3:27 mark, and then builds into the kind of majestic musical climax that only these guys can deliver. Pure ear candy. They've still got it.

The thing is, U2 has always been good musically. They probably get more hate because Bono is such a self righteous goof.
