      When someone asks me if I like country music, my response is 95% is not worth listening to, and sometimes worse than that. But 5% is about as good as it gets. "Crazy" is one of the best songs ever composed (Willie Nelson) and performed (Patsy Cline). And that's just one example of how Great country music can be.

    Usually country and bluegrass are not my first musical choices (though this song is arguably something else), but Alison Krauss (and Emmylou Harris as well) tips the scale for me.

    This performance is from the Country Music episode of PBS' "In Performance at the White House" from November of 2011. Alison was preceded by The Band Perry, and followed by James Taylor. She was accompanied by her Union Station band mate Dan Tyminski on guitar and her protege, and child prodigy, Sierra Hull on the mandolin. Dan Tyminski is probably best known for voicing over George Clooney's singing voice on "Man of Constant Sorrow" in the Coen Bros. movie "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?", and singing lead on the Avicii song, "Hey Brother".

Also, the guitar playing is the great Dan Tyminski who was the singing voice of George Clooney in the movie Oh Brother Where Aren't Thou.

    This song always made me think it was about a woman who wants her verbally-ungifted partner to stf up, but she knows she can’t order him to do so, so she comes up with this apparently-a-compliment way to accomplish it.
    Fun to watch you react to these very sweet country (and country-esque) performances. Another couple of singers you’d be great on are Iris Dement and Eva Cassidy. For Iris, find a video where she sings “My Town” with Emmylou Harris, or her own solo-at-the-piano version of “My Life” on the Tonight Show. For Eva, look for live performances (she’s fun to watch) of “Over the Rainbow” and “Fields of Gold.” Very touching stuff in both cases.
