Yes, he is a true treasure - I have seen him perform twice and he's pure magic.<3

Holy shit. Was that a misfire of my stupid automatic spell check. I didn't intentionally write "Lanolin". I wrote Lanlois, because that was how I had seen it spelled several times, including on the back of one of my CDs.  Bad Word! Bad Bill Gates!

This is very smooth and melodic.  I love  the line about "I love the feel of your body under me."  MMMMMMMMMM

I have asked this question so often in my lifetime. A reflective time is always served when this song appears in the realm of my listening quarters. I really enjoy this song and it's atmosphere. Hopefully it leads to bigger and better things.

I wish to someday go from being able to appreciate Mr. Lanois' diverse and unique talents (as a solo artist) to being able to actually enjoy them.

Daniel Lanois' production on Harris' Wrecking Ball album was so powerful that it was as much his album as hers.  I like his first version - the one with her singing - better.


 
This version and the Emmylou version have slightly different lyrics. Either way, it was written by Mr. Lanois

Thought I heard a bit of Dylan in his voice - pleasant surprise to find out it DL - it's been since 89 since acadie ? Goodness I must be getting old...when someone has made such a vast catalogue of such amazing material be it production of some of the most seminal music of (at least MY but dare I say OUR lives) it's hard not to feel we are just lucky to chill in his enormous shadow...

I love his voice, but it's his production that identifies his songs for me.  Can't explain it, beyond the fact that his songs have a feel... oh, and the stereo drums...

He also produced Apollo, which I can hear a bit here in this song.

I have to be in a mood for Lanois' music - but fortunately, I'm almost always in a mood for it. He has such a gift for nuance and inflection - when to shout, and when to whisper.  I love his work.{#Hearteyes}

Emmylou ... that's who sang it before.  I was having trouble listening to this because I was trying to figure that out <sigh>.  Nice rendition, though.

He DID?!!?!? I suspected so 'cause it sounded so much like his style, i quickly glanced at the back cover of the vinyl album i've had since '88 (reminds me of prom night) and didn't see his name... not surprised i missed it... i'll look again. Thanks Bill

This reminds me of another song sung by a female on RP. But I can't remember who that is.

I really like this.

Of course, Daniel Lanois is The Man:

"Daniel Lanois (pronounced /lænˈwɑː/, lan-wah)<1> (born September 19, 1951 in Hull, Quebec) is a Canadian record producer, guitarist and singer-songwriter. He has released a number of albums of his own work and has produced albums for a wide variety of artists, including Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, Emmylou Harris, and Willie Nelson. Lanois is best known for producing, with Brian Eno, a number of albums for U2, including The Joshua Tree."

Wow, assuming this is representative of him solo, you can totally hear Lanois's paw-prints all over the albums he produced for Peter Gabriel!
