March 21, 2015 - Starbucks - San Marcos, Texas - This is such a perfect little song and I can't imagine it being sung any more beautifully than Shawn Colvin sings it here. I like to imagine her singing it to me and that's not illegal...weird though...I know...please Shawn, if you get the time and'/or inclination...would you throw me in the ocean too? Peace

New Year's Day 2024 For my darling beautiful brilliant good wise and sacred soul Shawn Colvin with eternal love and kisses. Michelle Here's a comment from awhile ago after Greg's show in Dover Foxcroft, Maine. What a night that was but this song here 'Say A Little Prayer' is such an eternal masterpiece especially as sung here by Shawn. I became a six year old girl just so I could 'feel' this song better cause Shawn Colvin is my soul mother sister soldier lover muse friend forever and I hope darling Shawn that You will say a little prayer for me today that I might find my way back to my MaMa Bear. I want to get better my beautiful Shawn Colvin. How I worship and adore You. Quantum kisses to You forever from everywhere. I've never heard a song sung with more tender 'feeling' more sweetly sung song than here Shawn. One day we'll cuddle together in Austin and listen to this together and You can say to me: "see darlin' You turned into a dolphin, got better and here 'We' are now forever just me and You." How I love You Shawn Kisses Michelle Colvin @ZZZZAS 9 years ago Greg Brown - I saw him live last night Friday the 13th under a full moon in a small venue in northern Maine. That weird cosmic triangulation won’t occur again for 35 years. It’s very rare but not as rare as Greg Brown himself. I have never heard a warmer, wiser, more comforting voice in all my time particularly when he did the song about his grandmother putting summer into jars. It was pouring rain on top of everything else. It was raining when I went in and pouring when I came out. On the long slow ride home I had to be careful to not hit frogs leaping across the road and one soaking wet raccoon. Greg sat on stage on a plain wooden chair wearing a big wide brim hat, sunglasses and a pair of shoes he proudly displayed “I got ‘em in L.A”. - pause - “24 bucks” he said and he lifted the left one up in the air for all to see. He talked about his love of gardening “I’ve got the gene…I don’t necessarily love gardening but I’ve got the gene so I do it…” as for weeds: “I lie right down on the ground with ‘em and pull the sons a bitches out with both hands…” Greg said at the start of the show: “I’m nervous…” long pause…”I don’t usually get nervous…” pause…I thought for sure he was going to mention it being Friday the 13th and a full moon (he had already mentioned how the folks he saw upon arriving in Bangor seemed like they came straight out of a Stephen King novel and he had already mentioned that he met Steven King at a gig once “a big music fan”) but no, “I just discovered that something broke in my guitar…I flew from L.A.”. After about four songs someone from the back called down “you still nervous?” and he said: “no” and continued to comfort us all with that huge blanket of a voice he has and when we were all tucked in he told us some stories from his bottomless bag. By the end of the show, after the standing ovation and encore I knew I’d been spellbound by one of the very best of all time. An authentic, small town, troubadour with a broken guitar and a voice like God’s that seemed to say: “be still my children…you’re in good hands…” as he laid us down so gently into that garden of dreams of his, that poet’s paradise where every song blooms into its’ fullest nature, where Greg puts it all into jars of love and sends us on our way. And yes, he signs autographs and give hugs too….he’s playing in Bath, ME tonight and Portland, ME next…btw: the only person I’ve ever heard sing a Greg Brown song with as much love as Greg himself is Shawn Colvin…love her! They should tour together... 20 Reply 3 replies @kathywinn6849 @kathywinn6849 7 years ago I just read this comment and loved it so much. may be the best review EVER. Reply @terrimisitano4578 @terrimisitano4578 6 years ago My guess is the weird cosmic triangulation as backdrop to GB is no accident. He is such soul.
