Not one of her best songs IMHO.

Funny. I found this review I wrote about Downtown Church, and I don't remember writing it:

"I read somewhere Patty Griffin said she's not a religious person, but wanted to explore its music. Given that, this is not truly a gospel album but has elements that will entertain you or inspire you, or both. I feel this album takes Patty more to the heart of her singing, surpassing her previous work."

Her live album A Kiss In Time is a good place to start. I also like 1,000 Kisses and Impossible Dream.  Flaming Red is good too, but it's a little more edgy.

Likely will not be dissappointed. Fabulous songwriter, though not sure if she wrote any on this CD (I do not have it yet). Lots of songs she has written get you up and dancing, plenty others tear you up, and some do both. Flaming Red rocks more than most, but they are all good.

Note: Silver Bells was never released, but I've seen a link to download it on RP.

Like PG.. Not this PG, however.. Many other, better versions of this song abound.  Whomever said Lyle Lovett is right.  PG > LL all math day long.

Blasters' version is better IMO but this is fine.

I'm afraid Shirley Manson ruined me for this song. Her rendition is called "Samson and Delilah," and it's so powerful I almost can't listen to it all in one sitting - it's too intense.  I hope I can find it to upload it to the LRC, but if I can't, I hope someone else will submit it. It deserves to be played here!  Okay, I'm slinking away now...

Songs like a Lyle Lovett song - or a good imitation of one. Maybe that was her aim.

Great rendition.  Peter, Paul and Mary also did a great version.

But that was a long, long time ago.
