Patty Griffin is a goddess. Period. She takes human angst and reworks it into something not just palatable but beautiful, sweet and smooth the whole way down; the very best an artist and wordsmith could hope for! And her audience; we're so fortunate to have her!
Only heard this great song on an episode of Bones. Season 1 episode 17, I've seen the episode several times. Was played in kind of a sad scene. I love this song. Will be looking for Patty Griffin's cds ❤❤
I moved to Austin in 1999 cause I was a fan on Patty and Shawn Colvin and I didn't realize this was such a small town back then cause I bumped into both of them not at some concert venue but at Central Market and Town Lake.
I mean wow!!! Her voice is unbelievable!!! Someone who actually sounds the same singing live as she does in her videos!! Fucking love this song so much… kinda reminds me of Stevie nicks❤️❤️❤️
"Now I don't want to beg you baby for, something maybe you could never give. Im not looking for the rest of your life, I just want another chance to live" gets me every time! Such an emotionally provoking song (and not all positive) but truely wonderful. First time seeing this live version as well for me and wow! What a presence Patty has. I still really like the animated video for this song too though mind, although it kept freezing towards the end so switched to the live version. I was not disappointed! What a track!
I love Patty and have listened to her and this song for years. I like the melody, lyrics and sounds of the guitars. She writes amazing songs and is timeless in how her singing is ALWAYS so good.
I listened to a more recent music video and it sounds the exact same as this. It makes me happy that there was no voice modifying in this video. Keep singing patty! If you see this I would like you to respond and tell me what is your newest album is and how did you become a singer?
Torments of the heart, expressed in song - It's hard to listen to a hard hard heart Beating close to mine Pounding up against the stone and steel Walls that I won't climb Sometimes a hurt is so deep deep deep You think that you're gonna drown Sometimes all I can do is weep weep weep With all this rain falling down Strange how hard it rains now Rows and rows of big dark clouds When I'm holding on underneath this shroud Rain Its hard to know when to give up the fight Two things you want will just never be right Its never rained like it has to night before Now I don't want to beg you baby For something maybe you could never give I'm not looking for the rest of your life I just want another chance to live Strange how hard it rains now Rows and rows of big dark clouds When I'm holding on underneath this shroud Rain, oh rain Strange how hard it rains now Rows and rows of big dark clouds When I'm holding on underneath this shroud Rain Strange how hard it rains now Rows and rows of big dark clouds When I'm still alive underneath this shroud Rain Rain Rain
The first time I heard this song was on WNCW 88.7, a very popular Western North Carolina station in the Asheville area! I knew right away I had to have it! 😍😍
She did look a little nervous, almost missed the chord but recovered immediately. I was so in love with her during these years and learned a few of her songs. Rarely played them, could not do them any kind of Justice. She's touring now, I wish I could see her. No one like her in our universe.
skipper1971albe... FOR REAL this was LiVE! It's so OBVIOUS ,IF ONE LISTENS CLOSELY, THAT THIS WAS LiVE! .. PLUS ..Scroll back a bit to the person who commented that at very beginning she seemed a bit nervous, and they notice she had played her guitar o"at first" in an pposite direction than typical. PLUS..I've been blessed to see/hear Patty perform LiVE many times in Austin, and in this performance she was singing a slightly "alternate" version, in that her cadence was slower in one verse. Still exquisite! STILL Sounded LiVE AS CAN BE! 💘🌹💘

nicely put, sara...
I helped, a cinch to add something to perfection
I recall some folks remarking "Nobody sings sad" like her. Guess that's why we love her. It's why I do.

My favorite Patty Griffin song, it's a powerhouse.
This one of my fave songs
This is the most beautiful song I have ever heard !
I moved to Austin in 1999 cause I was a fan on Patty and Shawn Colvin and I didn't realize this was such a small town back then cause I bumped into both of them not at some concert venue but at Central Market and Town Lake.
I moved to Austin in 1997 to be near The Americana Scene, I probably ran into You at the Wheatsville Coop!
I mean wow!!! Her voice is unbelievable!!! Someone who actually sounds the same singing live as she does in her videos!! Fucking love this song so much… kinda reminds me of Stevie nicks❤️❤️❤️
I don't need ASMR. This song makes me rain.
Such a haunting, beautiful song, rendered so movingly. Amazing.
She is beautifully amazing
FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE of an absolutely astoundingly emotional song. This is my first time seeing this clip and it was both touching and brilliant!!!
"Now I don't want to beg you baby for, something maybe you could never give. Im not looking for the rest of your life, I just want another chance to live" gets me every time!

I wrote it..the delivery IS amazing..all of them
I love Patty and have listened to her and this song for years. I like the melody, lyrics and sounds of the guitars. She writes amazing songs and is timeless in how her singing is ALWAYS so good.
Singing along in a low baritone and struggling to not let through a cry in my voice 😪
🌧️🌧️🌩️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌦️🌧️🌧️🌧️
Don't Struggle, let it out! That Way The NEXT guy can Cry Too!

Ich kenne dieses Lied von bzw aus der Serie Bones.
Einmal gehört niemehr aus der Seele..

Torments of the heart, expressed in song -
It's hard to listen to a hard hard heart
Beating close to mine
Pounding up against the stone and steel
Walls that I won't climb
Sometimes a hurt is so deep deep deep
You think that you're gonna drown
Sometimes all I can do is weep weep weep
With all this rain falling down
Strange how hard it rains now
Rows and rows of big dark clouds
When I'm holding on underneath this shroud
Rain
Its hard to know when to give up the fight
Two things you want will just never be right
Its never rained like it has to night before
Now I don't want to beg you baby
For something maybe you could never give
I'm not looking for the rest of your life
I just want another chance to live
Strange how hard it rains now
Rows and rows of big dark clouds
When I'm holding on underneath this shroud
Rain, oh rain
Strange how hard it rains now
Rows and rows of big dark clouds
When I'm holding on underneath this shroud
Rain
Strange how hard it rains now
Rows and rows of big dark clouds
When I'm still alive underneath this shroud
Rain Rain Rain

Masterpiece♡
Amazing!
Wow❤❤❤❤
Господи, какая же она красивая🤗
Gorgeous rendition of an amazing song. Thank you so, so much for posting this.
It's her song and pretty much the same as on the album as she is an amazing songwriter and singer!
Giving up a fight..yes, a tough one
Magical
She really is something special isn't she ?, not that she would accept such a notion .
Like a ginger Stevie knicks. And I mean that in a good way.
Very Hemingway-esqe
Wonder if she was nervous... she forgot to play down rather than up the neck when the first verse started!
Si Rose tried to see that but after three reviews, still can't.....wassup?
She did look a little nervous, almost missed the chord but recovered immediately. I was so in love with her during these years and learned a few of her songs. Rarely played them, could not do them any kind of Justice. She's touring now, I wish I could see her. No one like her in our universe.
It's a perfect performance in my opinion. Just made it real. Still in key
Makes me think of ex wife, she special.
Didnt know depression a MF. Wish I'd was more edified.
But I’m holding on underneath this shroud…drinking
JK
2019 russia anyone ??
1919 Russia, my friend!
Love the song and the artist but ..live? C’mon ....

FOR REAL this was LiVE! It's so OBVIOUS ,IF ONE LISTENS CLOSELY, THAT THIS WAS LiVE! ..
PLUS ..Scroll back a bit to the person who commented that at very beginning she seemed a bit nervous, and they notice she had played her guitar o"at first" in an pposite direction than typical.

STILL Sounded LiVE AS CAN BE! 💘🌹💘
