- Transatlantic Sessions 6 - Mary Chapin Carpenter - with Aoife O'Donovan -Transcendental Reunion - with Phil Cunningham and Jerry Douglas !
Oh my goodness.. perfection, such talent. In this there is healing, so beautiful and such healing is so needed. The choice of instruments, the blended voices, the gifted artists. Many thanks, with warmth and admiration
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. Mary Chapin Carpenter is something special & the harmonies by Aoife are heavenly.
Thank you ❤
I owe Mary Chapin Carpenter a debt of gratitude. Her music carried me through the most painful period of my life, from which I have now emerged. Thank you Mary.
This is the song you need to play in your head the whole time you're waiting at the airport going through TSA screening. Its much nicer than the actual experience. Love Aoife's harmony.
Their vocals are simply perfect - Chapin, Aoife and Jerry blend beautifully. I call this a flawless performance overall.
Like most great music, this gets down to emotions I can't name and didn't know I had.
God bless those who make music, they are the songbirds in the backyard.
"Don't be holding that line up - at the end lies redemption" Beautiful..
Yes indeed.
Hearing Mary sing a slow song almost always brings me to tears. Her voice has a way of communicating extreme vulnerability, poignancy or sadness, depending on the lyrics, that's very hard to duplicate by other singers.
That beautiful Dobro is like the icing on a fine cake! A small slice of heaven right there!
Love what Mary does with Open tunings. Such relaxing vibes. She’s a treasure.
A wonderful combination. Mary , Aoife and Jerry Douglas. It's just beautiful. Gentle, tuneful, and soft. Just magical. Gerry Farry.
Love these shows. My wife and I watched many till she passed in Dec. 2014. We used to do Thistle and Shamrock and Celtic Connections 2001-2014. This was in the White Mts of Arizona. Now I am in Tucson and this is my Celtic show tonight.
+Duane Gibson hi, just sending my regards from Glasgow, Scotland and hope that music brings you comfort and healing. I love Mary CC she really has such a special way of reaching to your soul.
Chapin...thats a fabulous song, performance and backdrop. Exquisite. Thanks you...bob cheevers
I started listening to Bluegrass and Country Gospel at ten. I’m now 67 and very grateful for those keeping the music going. Congratulations and thank you for sharing this beautiful mandolin.🕊
Love Mary Chapin Carpenter and Jerry Douglas. Am learning about Ms. O’Donovan, but she seems special, too.
Oh she is. She’s quite important. Does great things with Chris Thile and with I’m With Her.
Aoife is great! Check out her covers of Joni Mitchell songs, her cover of Springsteen's Nebraska is good too. Her work with I'm With Her (Sarah Jarozs and Sara Watkins) is special too. Their harmony is so good. I especially love Crossing Muddy Waters.
Mary, Aoife and Jerry...this is a real treat for the ears :-)
One of the prettiest songs I have ever heard !
I just saw these two beautiful women perform this song last night; one of the most amazing performances I have ever seen. I am so grateful to have been front row to such stellar beauty!
My God. It's like candy for me. Haven't seen Mary in years. Her voice still blows me away and Aoife such a wonderful new talent. Bravo!
Exquisite. The way Aoife's voice works around MCC's, adding depth and occasional forays up into the higher ranges. How beautiful does it get?
Ms O'Donovan's voice singing harmony with Ms Carpenter is such a beautiful addition. Wonderful how they come together for other songs as well since. Background here is exquisite to add to the presence of travel to a place over the pond...distance on your own. But of course; perfection and so well done. Phil and Jerry did a fine job.🇨🇦
Her voice sends shivers down my spine. It's like another instrument.
Just amazing what Mary, Aoife and instruments can create, beautiful, serene and ah .......
MCC is so beyond unforgettable here...her song mates , and musicians...love everything about this. Thank you for your fabulous
Stories in song. Xo ☮ 💜
So beautiful. Another gem from my all time favorite singer/songwriter. In the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and so richly deserved.
every time I pick up. laptop - I go straight to this song .. You make great pair performing - so gorgeous. Nigel
Floating meaningful words on a simple melody touched by beauty. Thank you.
These musicians, music and lyrics....are simply wonderful. Very many thanks to you all.
Beautiful song, beautifully sung !
The Voice so beautiful - I love Mary's voice - So beautiful.
I used to listen to Mary Chapin Carpenter in the early 90s when her career was really at its peak. Her voice has the most interesting quality to it! Its unmistakable really, She, Trisha Yearwood and the incomparable Kathy Mattea are my three favorite female vocalists. This is very pretty.
I thought I was hearing Alison Krauss, the first time I heard this song. (I was on a bed-time UA-cam loop and this stuck out as something I wanted to hear again - glad I did) And, thanks to you thanks to you, I found Kathy Mattea. I call that a win!
I feel the same; I need to listen to "Stones in the Road" again. It's one of my favorite 90's albums.
Some of the best names in the business in your posting.
So Gentle ...So brilliant
so simple and beautiful.. this song hurts with joy and longing..... Getting ready as my wife and I often do this time of year to travel half the globe and gather all my kids together .. now grown up.... I'm reminded profoundly how much they sustain me and shape what I value even today. Remembering and anticipating that same unique.. now year old bear hug (that is hard to let go of) when I hit the terminal.
My travels often span day into night and then 'night into day', and this song captures the experience beautifully particular anticipation on approach. So in appreciation to all those friends and family who have blessed and continue to sustain my sense of well being and my faith by their grace and presence.and continue to feed my 'joy unbounded' to the 'next destination'... to you all...... my heart full and timeless thanks. love ya!
They are so very talented!!
This song makes me happycry, every time. Beautiful.
Perfect...amazing...a treasure
Magical ... true artistry. Thx for sharing. Sublime.
Sheer beauty, almost too much to behold here.
Love, Love, Love!
that's so beautiful, from such beautiful musicians..
Man...the poetry of life.
So beautiful.
I like that Mary´s smile at 0:15 just before she starts singing :)
Fantastic; sgoinnell! I discovered MCC a long time ago but I've just relistened to this song and now play it all the time in the car. The loch in the background is a bonus to this magic
Aoife's harmony singing is no easy undertaking. MCC's talent shines through on every song she writes and sings.
Man it is great to find mcc again
In your prayer you seek the connection with God but God is already in you. If your prayer is silent, without words or visualizations, when it is pure devotion, it can happen…
Songs that prompted the creation of the Repeat button.
Like a dream of music...come true
Love this simple but fantastic song
that view is beautiful. i want to live there.. as beautiful as the music and musicians...
I first heard Chapin sing in a Capital Hill bar in 1977. She still had several years of paying her dues before her first album, but she was already a star. Wonderful voice, wonderful person and a great sense of humor best demonstrated by Granola Baby and You Wouldn't Know Me I'm Your Opening Act (two unrecorded songs she wrote)
.
MCC, have played this over and over again, thinking of our mutual friend Doug B. who left us. He truly loved your music.
Soft and mellow feeling.
I have listened to this version literally thousands of times. The most beautiful music I've ever heard. I got see them perform this live (front row)...what a gift I'll never forget.
Just saw her do this tonight on the BBC and I had to immediately come here.
such beauty... in a song. could listen for hours...
Thanks for posting: it's great to see her perform. Her voice is a seductive instrument and she matches it to melodies that create an aural spell, both of which command that we attend to her arresting lyrics.
A beautiful narrative story. Thank you.
love you Mary, you too Aoife..
Simply Beautiful
Wow,I had to listen to this three times in a row!just gorgeous!
you can tell miss O'Donovan really feels and understand this song deeply.
Transatlantic sessions is the best thing that has ever happened in music . If the whole world could sing together ......who knows what could happen 🌈
Just lovely. Jerry Douglas is everywhere or so it seems.
Brilliant.
Did not realize I could hold my breath for five and a half minutes.
Her guitar always sounds fantastic. Always love the accordion, there was a guy named Nick Decaro that used to play on many recordings in the '70s and the '80s.
This absolutely “Stood me still”!
What could be better than this?
So absolutely mesmorizing women of song and strength and beauty
perfect
a song to dream to
Very pretty song!
Very nicely done with tasteful accents musically.
I hit thumbs up before the vocals started... love these two beautiful women
Soooooo smooooooth! Love it!
Amazing - like silk; smooth and so emotional.
This is such a great song, and the harmonies r wonderful!
How I would have loved to have been in that room - the power of music to lift the spirit and soothe the soul. ❤
From twenty thousand feet
I saw the lights below me
Twinkling just like christmas
We descended slowly
And the curve of the world passed
With all of that flying
Above the mighty ocean
And now we all are arriving
Grab the carry on baggage
Join the herd for the mad run
Take a place in the long line
Where does every one come from?
As we shuffle on forward
As we wait for inspection
Don't be holding that line up
At the end lies redemption
Oh oh, hey hey, ah ah
Now I'm stamped and I'm waved through
I take up my position
At the mouth of the cannon
Saying prayers of contrition
Please deliver my suitcase
From all mischief and peril
Now the sight of it circling
Is a hymn to the faithful
Forgive me for my staring, for my unconcealed envy
In the hall of arrivals where the great river empties
It's hand carts and porters
All the people it carries
To be greeted with flowers
Grandfathers and babies
Oh oh, hey hey, ah ah
There is no one to meet me
Yet I'm all but surrounded
By the tears and embracing
By the joy unbounded
The friends and relations
Leaping over hemispheres
Transcendental reunion
All borders vanish here
We are travelers traveling
We are gypsies together
We're philosophers gathering
We are business or pleasure
We are going or coming
We're just finding our way
To the next destination
And from night into day
Oh oh, hey hey, ah ah,
Oh oh, hey hey, ah ah
In a giant bird's belly
I flew over the ocean
From twenty thousand feet high
How those lights were glowing
Beautiful
Keep coming back to this slow, reflective song and TA version with Mary, Aoife, Jerry, etc especially in the darker days of December
Mary Chapin has some body of work to show. Just a fantastic songwriter and artist and lucky to see her perform live a couple of times.
These two together. Just so lovely.
Just love this music. Always found it so appropriate around Christmas time, but also find it is now somehow
Your devotion fills your music with beauty.
Genius...is too small a word
My heart is melting...
Just brilliant hopefully you will get over to the sane side of the atlantic more often... keep safe over there.
Beautiful song, exquisit execution by all. A Babie's loving lulabye for adults.
Wonderful performance xx
Spell-binding performance - What a voice!
Pure class.
9 years ago, huh? WOW!........when there was some sanity in the world. The song is beautiful, though. God is still in control!
beautiful
Beautiful!
first class all the way.....
I last saw Mary perform this just last winter in Manhattan. It was part of an immersive presentation with Gregory Orr, poet as they analyzed Elizabeth Bishop's 'One Art'. She sang but 5 songs during the evening, but what an evening with barely 50 of us there in the audience. Fwiw, we did 'lock' eyes ever so momentarily during this. Moments. Reflections. Beauty.
Wow...so very beautiful!!@
Thank you. Thank you.
