I stand corrected, it is Mssr Lanois, and it is his arrangement. It sounds so different on my phone than on a full-fledged stereo system. It doesn't need me to say so, but it is a fine work
Daniel Lanois ~ who other musicians revered..........gave one of the best songs ever to be sung ~ Thanks Mr. Nelson and Ms. Harris for this stunning performance.
I am on my daughters steps, six hours away from my home,13 years sober, my daughter got hit by a car on her bicycle overwhelmed ,she has a fractured pelvis, a shattered lower right leg that had two rods put in, a broken rib, punctured lung, two fractured vertebrae, talking to the maker. Give me the strength to make it thru today and give her the strength to heal in tears.
Me too. A great back-up vocalist always locks their attention on the lips of the lead. Especially someone like Willie. You never know what he’s gonna do. 😂. Great version!
Love this. I think I read somewhere that Willie's TIMING is special to Willie and I think Emmylou has to keep her eyes on him to be able to keep with him.
In addition to this being just a flat-out great composition, a lot of is propelled by Lanois' magnificent guitar part here. Lanois adds so much to the artists he chooses to work with.
+Jon McAuliffe There is a textue that Lanois creates with whoever he is working with that no other producer can duplicate. I saw him play for a coupe hundred people and it was simply amazing.
Yes, great talent recognizes great talent! Not sure why the video is not titled "Willie Nelson, Emmy Lou Harris and Daniel Lanois - The Maker", but Lanois is probably unfazed as many geniuses are under recognized.
Here's a pretty close paraphrase of a piece of an article I read about "Wrecking Ball": He leaves plenty of space for Harris' voice. This is good, because any musician, even one as talented as Daniel Lanois, who goes up against Emmylou Harris' voice is going to come away with a good pasting. LOL -- they both know how to "play nice with others" and the result is magic.
Lanois is one of those rare guys who really DOES have something special and different. Had the pleasure of meeting him last year before one of Emmy's shows. Great guy.
Read recording engineer Mark Howard's 'Listen Up' to learn about Dan's alleged temper tantrums and control freakism. Howard claims that Bob Dylan witnessed these traits and asked MH quietly, "Does he (DL) have a mental problem?"
Look at all that talent, I would love to be there and meet those three. What talent, I would just stop breathing-in awe of the years of brilliance right there before me.
Above and beyond everything about the song--which is of genius and God to be sure--is Willie's attention and dedication to making the song come out as heartfelt and genuine as possible. He and Emmy seem both is awe and transfixed by Mr Lanois and rightfully so...my fav moment is at the very end when Willie looks up and has the "there but for the grace of God go I " look in his eyes--like hes truly thankful to be a part of that song while it was happening.
She has to watch, because he phrases it differently every time. Because he feels it differently every time. Genius. And nobody can complement someone else better than Emmylou.
When I saw it was Emmylou and Wilie, I knew it would be good, but adding that guitar sound - Lord have mercy! I'd forgotten what Daniel Lanois looked like and didn't realize it was him 'til the comments. I didn't know he was such a guitar player - I only knew of him as a producer. Fabulous song.
Soulful deep waters. Those that appreciate Lanois on guitar here might like Emmylou's live version w/ Buddy Miller's atmospheric guitar and Brady Blades driving on drums. The album is Spyboy, this the closing number. Worth a listen!
Emmy is as beautiful and talented as ever. And Willie? Well he's just Willie. Like Waylon said,"He just wants to ride around in that bus and play that ol' beat up guitar."
Oh, oh deep water, black and cold like the night I stand with arms wide open, I've run a twisted line I'm a stranger in the eyes of the Maker I could not see for the fog in my eyes I could not feel for the fear in my life And from across the great divide, In the distance I saw a light Jean Baptiste's walking to me with the Maker My body is bent and broken by long and dangerous sleep I can't work the fields of Abraham and turn my head away I'm not a stranger in the hands of the Maker Brother John, have you seen the homeless daughters Standing there with broken wings I have seen the flaming swords There over east of Eden Burning in the eyes of the Maker Burning in the eyes of the Maker Burning in the eyes of the Maker Oh, river rise from your sleep
I love this arrangement. It reminds me of all the ignorantly oppressed, and I dearly cherish ELH and WN. I am impressed as always with the choice of musicians.
Love Willie Nelson, love EmmyLou Harris-This is my favorite rendition of this song (goosebumps.) Superb performance; thanks to WN, ELH, Daniel, and band. ❤❤
I have this album by Daniel Lanois, both the cd and tape for the car. Love this album by Daniel Lanois. Jolie Louise, Sillium Hill, Under Stormy Skies, etc are on this tape. Great music, wore first one out, now have cd and tape.
@coozamel I actually do believe you're right. She's just so talented and is able to do her own wonderful thing, but knows how to give the artists that she works with enough room to make their own magic as well and that's the mark of a true and confident artist. She's another example of a musician's musician. I of course love Willie in this as well and really the guitarist. Peace.
This is not on Emmylou's "Wrecking Ball." It's on her live cd "Spyboy" which has a few songs from "Wrecking Ball" on it. "Wrecking Ball" is the greatest record album of all time, in my opinion. I think this song would have fit nicely on it.

One of my favourite songs in this world, but have to admit that I prefer Daniel’s performance of it on his Acadie album. Landis is an incredible musician and performer, not to mention Producer of two of my favourite ever albums in Peter Gabriel’s So and Emmylou’s Wreaking Ball. I would love to meet him!
For God's sake release the entire Willie Nelson At Teatro film on dvd. Why the magnificent Wim Wenders doco is only available on ridiculously priced vas on ebay is a mystery.
While I'm not a religious music fan, this song is very powerful, the guitarist, makes this song, first thought it was Stevie Van Zandt, excellent song.
Great song-I saw a version of Willie Nelson doing this on here and it was from the David Letterman show-Has anyone seen it?? It was really good and I haven't seen it in a while now?
Lanois wrote the song...ck. out his '89 cd "Acadie"!! "that guitarist is cool, love the opening riffs. never heard of him before but google his name - "Daniel Lanois"???? "
Lanois is golden. Outrageous guitar licks; best I've heard in a long, long time. Also, love how Emmylou pinpoints her harmony with direct eye contact.
perfect work from Emmylou, the only way yo do it
A hidden gem! Lanois's arrangements are genius!
Lanois is genius .
I wholeheartedly agree, except the video is not Daniel Lanois' arrangement. Looks like it was tweaked for Emmylou Harris' duet.
I stand corrected, it is Mssr Lanois, and it is his arrangement. It sounds so different on my phone than on a full-fledged stereo system. It doesn't need me to say so, but it is a fine work
@@RubenSaenzdeVitericiao Ruben! 🙋♀️😍😘💘🌅
It must be very difficult to duet with Willie's unique style. Emmy was concentrating hard and watching him closely, and she succeeded admirably.
She is maybe, the best back up singer of all time. When she's not singing lead.
@@benbarclay5546 ciao Ben! 🙋♀️😍😘💘💖
She has said several times she has to see his face to be able to accomplish this.
I love Daniel Lanois original version of this song....but this version with Willy Nelson and Emmylou Harris takes it to another level!! Awesome!!
Yes, I agree... this is a fresh version
WILLIE
you know when a drummer smokin and old daddy singin a tune with emm there is somethin good goin on.
Some truly talented people here singing and playing a song that is a gift from the maker his self!
Daniel Lanois ~ who other musicians revered..........gave one of the best songs ever to be sung ~ Thanks Mr. Nelson and Ms. Harris for this stunning performance.
dear god, this is the most beautiful rendition of the most beautiful song i've ever heard
You are right,
And that drummer is spot on the Ball!. Wonderful song. The hiwayman and the goddess.
Who is the drummer? Who is the bass? Spot on the Ball!!
@@patricknance3585ciao Patrick!🙋😊😍😘💘🌅
Parents both passed a few days apart of each other in November, they loved this song. My dad would sing it in Spanish. Thank you Willie.
+mattlion69 I am very moved to hear that and I bet it sounded great in Spanish . Can I offer my sincere condolences too.
+Chris Roberson Thank you so much!!!
+calum morrison It was the most beautiful piece of music I heard. Thank you..very kind of you.
abrazos! hermano
God bless your parents and you now!
Lanois... you know you’re good when Willie Nelson shakes his head in wonderment as you play:)
I am on my daughters steps, six hours away from my home,13 years sober, my daughter got hit by a car on her bicycle overwhelmed ,she has a fractured pelvis, a shattered lower right leg that had two rods put in, a broken rib, punctured lung, two fractured vertebrae, talking to the maker.
Give me the strength to make it thru today and give her the strength to heal in tears.
I hope you're all well and healed by now.
Teatro is one of the most under appreciated works of art I can think of. I don't understand how it hasn't become a revered classic.
+CoberBox1
As far as im concerned, it is.
+CoberBox1 I agree wholeheartedly.
+CoberBox1 I think it is !
+CoberBox1
I agree whole-hearted. One of Willie's best ever.
Absolutely. "Teatro" is one of the best albums of the 20th century.
love the way emmylou reads or takes her cues from willie when they sing together...absolute talent...
EMMY, the CONSuMATE VOCALIST.
She is the queen of harmony after all 😊
But, yes, it was very cool to watch her practice her art.
Two amazing talents...icons.
Me too. A great back-up vocalist always locks their attention on the lips of the lead. Especially someone like Willie. You never know what he’s gonna do. 😂. Great version!
Love this. I think I read somewhere that Willie's TIMING is special to Willie and I think Emmylou has to keep her eyes on him to be able to keep with him.
Emmylou just gets increasingly gorgeous with age. Great song, great musicians, great recording. Thanks for sharing.
I've heard the covers and more covers all by great artists, but nothing beats the original. Acadie is a magical album.
I don't know whether to sing, dance or cry to this song! It brings up so many conflicting/competing emotions! The two together are incredible!
In addition to this being just a flat-out great composition, a lot of is propelled by Lanois' magnificent guitar part here. Lanois adds so much to the artists he chooses to work with.

Lanois prays through his guitar...
Sure does.
Nice real nice. All of them. Liked Daniel Lanois burning them strings at the end. Beautiful song and inspirational words to match.
This is a beautiful but difficult song for anyone, when you hear Spyboy version with Emmylou, it's like it was made for her. God Bless, ELH.
Look at all that talent, I would love to be there and meet those three.
What talent, I would just stop breathing-in awe of the years of brilliance right there before me.
Brilliant! Why on earth can't all bands use this kind of guitar, it's like it has soul.
i've always said that Miss Emmylou is my dream girl ( & i'm happily married) smokin' hot w/ the voice of an angel
Willie🎤Nelson and Emmylou🎤Harris Singing a most beautiful song a legend having memories 🙏😇🦋🧩
Timeless masterpiece. Thanks to Emmy, Willie and Daniel !
The smile on Willie's face at the end is everything.
Above and beyond everything about the song--which is of genius and God to be sure--is Willie's attention and dedication to making the song come out as heartfelt and genuine as possible.

The blessed voices and guitar are vibrating with awe for the Maker.
The Willy Nelson CD is Teatro. I bought mine on ebay for 3 bucks. The Emmylou version is on Spyboy. Enjoy them both.
so glad they did this song. so good
Anyone who dont like this needs to go pray and pray hard. :)
This song has a very special meaning. God bless them for making this song.
I don't believe in God but I have to admit that this song is STUNNING!
Βασίλης Κυριακίδης Don't worry. God believes in you.
I’m an atheist too and have to admit that within the context of the song, it’s a beaut. And it’s a good conversation starter
Emmylou Harris the most beautiful woman ever
Best thing is to see ELH watching and matching Willie's phrasing so closely at 4:00.
She has to watch, because he phrases it differently every time. Because he feels it differently every time. Genius. And nobody can complement someone else better than Emmylou.
YES
sometimes.. playing music is absolutely transcendent... it's awesome to witness
thanks for sharing 🤠
every Time... thanks y'all
Passin the ✌️ Peace Pipe
Pass it on
Please
namaste = I recognize the creator in you
Namaste y'all
Merry Christmas
This hits me in the gut EVERYTIME I watch it. Oh the talent here!
When I saw it was Emmylou and Wilie, I knew it would be good, but adding that guitar sound - Lord have mercy! I'd forgotten what Daniel Lanois looked like and didn't realize it was him 'til the comments. I didn't know he was such a guitar player - I only knew of him as a producer. Fabulous song.

Great album!
SOOO worth a listen, or two, or, like me, a hundred 😊
One of the best versions ever done of it!
And there are many.
goosebumps every time i hear this wonderful tune. thanks willie and co.
Impressive performance Willie!
Wow. Never seen this before. Awesome.
a song that never wearies the weary-hearted.
Emmylou bella y dulce dama. Preciosa voz.
LOVE Willie’s quote... jukeboxes are powered by nickels and heartache
Great respect for this man....and long live trigger...
Why bicker,jus be thankfull you have the ability to listen to some of the finest talent the world has seen,and indeed heard,just enjoy
That's a beautiful song Willie and I think you and Emmylou did a good job actually all of you did a very good job
emmylou is such a lady.
Love this song. Fantastic voice. Great song.
Emmy is as beautiful and talented as ever. And Willie? Well he's just Willie. Like Waylon said,"He just wants to ride around in that bus and play that ol' beat up guitar."
Every time I listen to this, shivers run up and down my spine. I love it!!
Absolute perfection!
Hello Rose
Stunning song! Brilliant performance!
Oh, oh deep water, black and cold like the night
I stand with arms wide open,
I've run a twisted line
I'm a stranger in the eyes of the Maker
I could not see for the fog in my eyes
I could not feel for the fear in my life
And from across the great divide, In the distance I saw a light
Jean Baptiste's walking to me with the Maker
My body is bent and broken by long and dangerous sleep
I can't work the fields of Abraham and turn my head away
I'm not a stranger in the hands of the Maker
Brother John, have you seen the homeless daughters
Standing there with broken wings
I have seen the flaming swords
There over east of Eden
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Oh, river rise from your sleep
I love this arrangement. It reminds me of all the ignorantly oppressed, and I dearly cherish ELH and WN. I am impressed as always with the choice of musicians.
Hello Karen
Absolutely love this video. As expected Willie hits it out of the park on this one.
Heck, Willie Nelson's eye stare at the very end of this song gem speak volumes. This song is "The Maker", but he be "The Master".
Ikr?
I would LOVE to see Emmylou do an album with him. Could you imagine?
Wish they'd push Emmy up in the mix a bit. That Telecaster is like a lightning bolt. So on point.
With all due respect to Dave Matthews, Willie Nelson's voice is 5 levels better.
I’m sure Dave agrees!❤
Goosebumps on top of goosebumps. Made even more amazing by the presence of Mr. Lanois.
This was exqui9sitely beautiful.
Hello Mar
Ive allways had a soft spot for Willie, but, Emmylou, Emmylou. Emmylou XXX
A superb cover from the Daniel Lanois song.
Pure magic.
I love how Willie is clearly pushing his vocals to the limit, and Lanois' jumpy, impassioned guitar work.
Love Willie Nelson, love EmmyLou Harris-This is my favorite rendition of this song (goosebumps.) Superb performance; thanks to WN, ELH, Daniel, and band. ❤❤
I have this album by Daniel Lanois, both the cd and tape for the car. Love this album by Daniel Lanois. Jolie Louise, Sillium Hill, Under Stormy Skies, etc are on this tape. Great music, wore first one out, now have cd and tape.
Harmony is the true mark of s good voice and a true artist in my humble opinion IMHO, but what do i know right????
Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!!!! This is the kind of stuff that keeps this ol world of ours together. Thanks for makin music!! Trailrboy
pure gold
closer to god, these people are...
Damn, That was wicked good.
wicked share, never saw this version. thank you so much!
Willie's best ever!

What a brilliant Interpretation and a great guitar by Composer Daniel Lanois !
Really? 27 are NUTS! Q Tips for all of you 27.
Stunning!!! When these 3 are Gone in Heaven Wow!!!
This is not on Emmylou's "Wrecking Ball." It's on her live cd "Spyboy" which has a few songs from "Wrecking Ball" on it.
"Wrecking Ball" is the greatest record album of all time, in my opinion. I think this song would have fit nicely on it.

I never heard this song before you did a good job but of course you always do a good job I love you
IM going to see dmb tonight at fenway and willie is opening for them. it would be epic if they got together and played this
She is so beautiful and I love this song
I listen, I watch and I smile!

Brady blade is one kick ass drummer!! There is another version of this on youtube with Lanois and Emmy Lou ... seek it out AMAZING!
Lanois wrote this song.
nice song with deep meaning...
I thought that guitar was going to burst into flames. ❤❤
Still, Willie's best album!
Sometimes it all comes together....Magic.
Great song-I saw a version of Willie Nelson doing this on here and it was from the David Letterman show-Has anyone seen it?? It was really good and I haven't seen it in a while now?
