Whenever I hear this song I think about ... Do I ever cross her mind?

Do you know why women out live men?

No woman ever died of heartbreak.

This sounds like a reworking of Gordon Lighfoots "Did She Mention My Name". Pretty good though....

Boy, this song is lovely, and Joan's voice and inflections are just perfect.

He is! I swear he reads my mind at least weekly and plays a song just as I'm thinking about it. Quite talented he is

There is a little. Of these, the cover of "Shine" tops the selections, to me.

I was sitting in the other room picking textbooks for next semester and this tune pops up and I stop. I've heard it before on RP and I always stop what I'm doing when it comes on. I think of L and what she meant to me ... That's what music is about, isn't it?

A big 10-4 on that'n good buddy. Luuuvvv that toon! As I understand it, Dolly was so impressed by Mindy Smith that she agreed to do the background vocals on that track (which you can hear).

As for those that scoff at something Dolly Parton related coming across the plate here at dear old RP, is say peesh! Dolly can write some classic songs. I can't claim to have any of her recordings in my collection, but I certainly respect her musicianship. So there.

I saw Joan in concert this summer and fell in love with her. She did this song, and now I can see her tapping her sandal-shod foot as she sings.

IIRC, that's a different song. (Same title, though.)

This track is great. Joan hits the right notes here.

What a nice, gentle song. I've never heard the original but I can already assume she does it justice. A nice, lesser heard side of Joan. Thank you for playing it.

This is nice... a few years ago, Joan "phoned in" a performance at a San Diego street fair... and I nearly got into a major bitch-fest with a chick-friend of mine for dare suggesting that she's anything less than a goddess!
