Natalie Merchant - Texas Lyrics

How soft and powerful performance, thank you! And 8 people without a musical taste-
go back to listen to your crappy 2019 "songs".

A master at work....truly fine.

Best live performance on Later that I've ever seen

Off the planet......

Stunning...... in so many ways

superb....peerless........love that country soul

Hauntingly beautiful...

this is not the performance I remember on Later. I would like to hear the one which I had the more animated Natalie performing, please. Don't get me wrong, this is great but...

Como siempre, fantastica!!

Como siempre, fantastica!!

Willian from Chelsea on guitar.

@Andy Jackson looks more like nathan ake

He's got to keep himself busy, can't get a game!

It's Gabriel Gordon

I saw this 1st time around and loved it. Still come back regularly to listen again as is truly wonderful.

+Simon Fisher Same here. Amazing performance.

amazing!

majestic

After the scene of jealousy of W. B., to suppress a video of the song "Black Sheep", i here reproduce my previous comment. Natalie Merchant, not infrequently, is already somewhat discriminated in some the media connected to the music business, now missing itself Distributor, in their last self-titled álbum (2014).
About the new 2014 album "Natalie Merchant" is a work that reveals serenity, maturity, very clearly in the themes, somewhat melancholy, introspective, not having a very innovative musicianship, the songs possess sufficient strength and clarity, with a clear  and securely voice, so that the final combination proves to be very effective, mas without be dazzling. That can equate to reveal the artistic and stage personnel Natalie lives. People, especially the creators of art, change over the years acquire a greater serenity to realize in practice their artistic ideas / ideals. But his consciousness never changes, and concerns about the planet on which we are living and socializing, there is very present. To emphasize the collaboration of John Medeski keyboards (Medeski Martin & Wood) and vocalists Simi Stone, Elizabeth Mitchell, Corliss Stafford, and other relevant musicians, factors that contribute to the final musicality is so simple, but bright and very effective. All songs are original and very well designed, and already wanting to retain the songs: "Go Down Moses" (not Joe Strummer's song), "It's A-Coming", "Black Sheep", exemplifying all nuances of this album. Is Natalie. Worth it.

ESA VOZ... ESA VOZ... HACE RECORDAR.

15512 views. 15500 of them are me. I wonder who the other twelve are.

Natalie Merchant performing live is one of the great treats of our times. Check out Space Oddity and Gulf of Araby for more amazingness.

Brilliant!

Nothing beats those times a magical performance is captured on video. This is one of those times.

this is amazing

This Later show was an introduction for me. Got some catching up to do.

As a long time fan, I was disappointed that there was only time for one of her songs on the show, as in Britain at least, she is so underappreciated/unknown, despite her wonderful soulful voice and three decades of quality songwriting. However,it is good to see that a few more people such as yourself are now aware of her music. She was on 'Later' in 1998 when she sang two songs from her 'Ophelia' album (also on Youtube).It is also worth checking out her work with 10000 Maniacs such as 'In My Tribe' (1987), 'Blind Man's Zoo (1989) and 'Our Time In Eden' (1992). Enjoy catching up-better late than never!

Where does one go to immediately acquire a CD these days?  All the stores near me are gone but I really like to have the CD with the cover art and such.  I don't want to get it through tax dodging Arseholezon and more importantly I don't want to wait for delivery.  It's certainly a minor dilemma.

For me, this performance is nothing less than sublime.
This is the best act I've ever seen on 'Later', and a wonderful introduction for me to an extremely talented artist with a tremendous depth of feeling and so much to give.

Tears well up in my eyes when I watch this video, and the chemistry between her and her very fine guitarist. I think the BBC also did a good job of the recording with its good sound, sound balance and camera work.

The words "nobody knew your name" can be heard repeatedly in her song "Lulu" (on the same album). I'm now fortunate to know the name Natalie Merchant.

She's got soul..love it!

Lovely performance from Natalie here and over all a really great show this week.  As aside does anyone know the name of the guitarist here.  He's really good.

Gabe Gordon, and yes, he is a talent, check out his solo music

Still in wonderful voice . . . 

saw this just now on Jools Holland what a wonderful emotive sound

love love her voice ever since i first heard it 1989 i believe, beautiful!

Congratulations Natalie for you new job! 
Every time you release a new album is great joy for those who have the pleasure to accompany her  beautiful career. 
Once the new album arrives in Brazil will buy my and  gifting  people working with the new singer and poet most fantastic of this world!

Can't watch this and I live in Texas

This song is about greed and one Texan in particular, George Dubya Bush

Great stuff!
