Funny, I went to this page to say the exact same thing. Guess I have to go out and get this cd (which I believe also features a cover of the Beatles "I Need You") |

This is actually a Steve Earle song... |

My thoughts exactly! |
| Johng (San Luis Obispo, CA. Hey I call this paradise too!) | Posted: Jun 23, 2005 - 09:00 This is one of the few songs on RP that make me turn the volume all the way down until it's over! She's just too enthusiastic or something, really bugs me. |
| DisplacedNorthrnr (Btwn the Golden Armpit and the butthole of Ontario) | Posted: Jun 23, 2005 - 08:58 I like the Steve Earle rendition better. This just sounds too thin and contrived...or something. |
| jesse (Nova Scotia) | Posted: Jun 23, 2005 - 08:57 IMHO great song as done by Steve Earl. Her voice is a little too chipmunk like for me. |

I agree - Worst song I have ever heard on RP |

Bill should play the Steve Earle version. It rocks! I only gave this version a 5. |

| Shawneeo (Baton Rouge, La.) | Posted: Jan 27, 2005 - 12:17 LOVE the song (as done by Steve Earle), not too keen on the singer. |
| emilym7 (Chicago) | Posted: Jan 27, 2005 - 09:55 Hopeful lyrics. Especially if you're getting back on the horse after a rough breakup. |

| trekhead | Posted: Nov 29, 2004 - 09:19 Nice! Sam and Shawn within a couple songs of each other... |
| Lazy8 (the Gallatin valley of Montana) | Posted: Nov 13, 2004 - 16:16 Guitarists--don't let this happen to you. Supress the urge to end songs with spastic strumming. |
| slawjam | Posted: Oct 01, 2004 - 13:14 Listen to "Another Plane Went Down" or almost anything else from the Whole New You album, then call her pretentious! |

Sorry to tell you, she didn't write this song. |
| redlinzus (Portland, Oregon) | Posted: Jul 22, 2004 - 09:28 Shawn is one of the best song writers there is and her performances are memroable, personal and fun. You guys dissing her are missing out. Get Fat City and hear some incredible craft... If you don't like her fine, but at least respect her... |
| Keegs (Rochester, NY) | Posted: May 28, 2004 - 09:40 :puke: BORING AS USUAL. I've seen her a couple times as an opening act and she was BORING then as well. |
| mig7 | Posted: May 28, 2004 - 08:21 Well--at least the crowd loved it. |

You're exactly right! |
| sergeant_x (Lawrence KS) | Posted: Nov 07, 2003 - 01:53 ahhh... this is the first song I learned and actually worked up the nerve to play and sing out loud. Love the song, and its not a bad version. Better than mine even. :) |
| iggy33 | Posted: Oct 07, 2003 - 07:14 Definitely not Shawn at her best... |

| mfassett (Redwood City, CA) | Posted: Jul 27, 2003 - 22:38 I like it! |
| Jeronimus_Funk (Amsterdam, Holland (5325 miles NNE of RP)) | Posted: Jun 17, 2003 - 02:50 jezus, she sounds more childlike than britney spears looks..did she ever hear a rock song? |
| missjanuary (kanazawa) | Posted: May 07, 2003 - 06:52 Doesn't sound quite convincing enough for me. She should smoke more whisky and drink more cigars, methinks. :p |
| devildog (Cuyahoga Falls, OH) | Posted: Apr 06, 2003 - 18:11 Kudos to Steve for writing and Shawn for singing it!  |
| eric (Secret Hideaway) | Posted: Feb 14, 2003 - 16:00 Blech. |
| 3Dave (Fort Wayne, IN) | Posted: Feb 04, 2003 - 11:46 Ever since I saw her open up for Neil Young on his "Harvest Moon" tour I have been a fan of hers. I mean how can you not ...after such a magical night as that was. It was a beautiful harvest full moon night in an outdoor venue in Indianapolis. Just her and her guitar singing, so beautifully, so captivatingly. It was a perfect match to Neil in one of his acoustic phases with just him his guitars and banjo's etc. I had to find out who that gal was. That week Rolling Stone had a small article covering her Fat City release and so I started spreading the word as much as possible and until that Sunny... song came out and then is was hard to get away from hearing her. I was no longer needed to champion her cause. But still... I like thinking back to that cool September night when I was blown away and it seemed like no one had ever heard of her. |
| Johray63 (Meppel) | Posted: Jun 11, 2002 - 09:35 Music, nowadays, often sounds so 'calculated', so it's moving to listen to someone still singing straight from the heart. Even more so, 'cause she's got such a wonderful, bright voice. |
| Analeptic (Fort Worth, TX) | Posted: Jun 11, 2002 - 09:32 Steve Earl is the best songwriter Nashville has ever turned its back on!! Americana at its best! :) |
| carl (Marlborough, MA) | Posted: Feb 07, 2002 - 07:21 I like some of her stuff (when I'm in a mellow mood), but this just seems uninspired and disjointed to me. |
| the_jake (Secret Hideaway) | Posted: Feb 07, 2002 - 07:21 I like Shawn, even if this is just a cover. ;) |
| lily33 (Uniontown, PA) | Posted: Jan 27, 2002 - 21:42 i've never liked ANYTHING by this artist. either its because its late at night and i'm suggestible....or i really do like it, now. hard to say. perhaps because its not hers? hmm. |
