    I always felt like one of Brandi's biggest strengths as an artist(and she has a lot of them, so it's a tough contest) is just how big a true fan she is of the music she chooses to cover. Listening to a song she's covering is always like being re-introduced to an old friend. It's not even that she always sings the song technically better than the original artist, but you can just hear how much she loves that song, and what parts of it spoke to her, and it just feels special that she's so unguarded about sharing that appreciation with all of us.

      she is one of those blessed people that music flows from the very core of her being. when she plays/sings it just streams from her and embraces all those around her hugging them gently. most magical. i can imagine it would be quite something to see her live in concert.

      Brandis the ultimate fangirl. She is such a fan of so many incredible artists and loves to not only pay homage to their music by covering, but she so often pushes for those she's a fan of. She brings them on tour with her. She includes them at her festivals. She had such a huge hand in getting Joni Mitchell back on stage. She helped to reintroduced Tanya Tucker to a whole new generation. She was one of the friends and artists who support Wynonna Judd after Naomi passed and not only encouraged her to go ahead with The Judd's farewell tour, but also showed up to sing with Wynonna at several tour stops. She's such a fan at heart.

      Oh that music, the heavenly language of the heart will
      unite & heal.
      Brandi is called to the
      " mission field."
      Keep singing, Brandi.🎶

I'm just confused as to why people feel the need to shout out their sexuality in every comment about a music video because the singer happens to be gay.

      Brandi toured for years on the hard end of the business. Any of us that happened to work a show with her knew that she was going places. She is really that kind and gracious. How an artist treats local crew is a huge bellwether of what type of person they are.

    "If you wait for me
    Then I'll come for you
    Although I've traveled far
    I always hold a place for you in my heart
    If you think of me
    If you miss me once in a while
    Then I'll return to you
    I'll return and fill that space in your heart
    Remembering
    Your touch
    Your kiss
    Your warm embrace
    I'll find my way back to you
    If you'll be waiting
    If you dream of me
    Like I dream of you
    In a place that's warm and dark
    In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart
    Remembering
    Your touch
    Your kiss
    Your warm embrace
    I'll find my way back to you
    If you'll be waiting
    Oh, I've longed for you
    And I have desired
    To see your face, your smile
    To be with you wherever you are
    Remembering
    Your touch
    Your kiss
    Your warm embrace
    I'll find my way back to you
    Please say you'll be waiting
    Together again
    It would feel so good to be
    In your arms
    Where all my journeys end
    If you can make a promise
    If it's one that you can keep
    I vow to come for you
    If you wait for me
    And say you'll hold
    A place for me
    In your heart
    A place for me in your heart
    A place for me in your heart
    A place for me in your heart"

    from a realm beyond the
    earthly ....a place we ALL
    aspire to be......A realm
    of perfect love, peace,
    beauty & acceptance...
    A Free Gift From God.

    I've really enjoyed over the years watching Brandi Carlile grow and become someone, along with most likely the most famous person to come out of Enumclaw. I remember in Early 2000's Enumclaw High School held a school Musical Talent Show, Brandi's sister sang, Brand accompanied her on Guitar and harmony - they were amazing then. She wasn't known at the time but you knew she was going to be big.

    We were at this show also! Such a special occasion. :) We just loved the solo performance (other than her wife), and the intimate venue.
