Emmylou is a National Treasure. How fortunate that Chris Hillman and Gram Parsons went to listen to her sing, all those years ago.

I've been in love with this woman for 50 years.....

You're not the only one Charlie.

She was lovely in her youth but I swear she's smoking hot with her gorgeous silver hair! I was lucky enough to see her in concert once in Welches, Oregon. Beautiful voice, beautiful music. ♥️

Emmylou has the rare beauty that refines well with age. She's more attractive than Taylor Swift, Faith Hill or Shania Twain!

Aside from her talent, no one could rock a long, silver layered look like she could. The late nineties, early 2000’s she was at her peak of beauty.

Agreed. She is a women so gracefully beautiful she is held together by the softest kisses of the Holy Spirit: joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

Hard to believe I have been following this lady for fifty years and she’s just as good now as the first time I heard her

Me to jeff, Emmy just gets better as time goes by an angel take care pal

From the beginning of Emmylou’s singing career she was and always is a gift to humankind. What a voice!

Willie Nelson said there's 2 kinda men those who love Emmylou and those who haven't met her yet i couldn't agree more.

What did Willie say? Two types of men, those in love with Emmylou and those that hadn't met her yet? Seems accurate. Beautiful lady, beautiful voice.

Emmylou has sung this classic Townes Van Zandt song 1000 times more than Townes did and it never ever gets old... Never!

Prettiest voice I've ever heard.

I'm just here because this video is in John Burns' favorite video playlist :D

Imagine Emmylou singing 'Eternal Flame' or a song written by Prince . I am not into country music but I love Emmylou.

What a lovely lass... she still tears my heart out with the beauty of her voice and the heart she put into her music! Takes me back the years to the '70s, the girls and time spent sweetly in the Rocky Mtns... trees rustlin in the breezes, running streams, warm campsites and warmer ladies... I was at the gates of Heaven then and didnt realise it... Valhalla I am coming!

First version i ever heard was by Emmylou , hasnt been surpassed, she will always be my First Lady of country music , the fact that she is so beautiful has nothing to do with it , ahem

I was at this show. About 3 years later, Emmylou was touring the Heartachs & Highways disc & played with Elvis Costello at the Promowest in Columbus. After the show I stayed after to see if I could get my cd signed by Emmylou. Not only did she sign my cd, she also invited me onto her bus and we talked ,just the two of us for about 10 minutes. The absolute highpoint of my concert going experiences. Emmylou was everyday people, like the girl next door,& she left me with a hug

Emmylou is the best artist ever 2019 still

Emmylou is such a timeless artist She sings duets with others, doesn't seem like she is searching to hog the limelight She is secure enough to let others shine. I like that about her She is indeed a classy woman.

She's still one of the most beautiful women in music and her voice is still as sweet as it ever was. She's definitely one of the queens of country music

Emmylou is like fine wine, gets better with age.

God, I love that woman! She's my favorite female singer!

...great song...great performance...I believe Emmy was the first to cover "Pancho and Lefty" back in the late 60s...

She went from extremely cute to unbelievably beautiful as she aged.

Still a beautiful lady at whatever age. And her voice never lets us down....First time I saw her was back in 1969 or 1970 at Mr. Henry's in NW DC. Just her and her piano. Love at first sight (and sound).

The voice of angels. Today is his birthday. God protect you Emmylou.

my first record in 1980's.

I had two cats named Pancho and Lefty. Pancho disappeared early, but I had Lefty until he was 18 years old and died from a stroke. Townes really could write a song.

My wife's hair has steadily gone grey since her late 20's. Like Emmylou, she looks every bit as pretty as the day we met, and gets complemented often about her hair.

Silver IS beautiful. Emmylou is beautiful. My wife is beautiful. Life can be beautiful - even though it is not always so - let us appreciate beauty where we see it. But do not equate beauty with goodness - (not that anyone here did... )

Emmylou puts so much heart & sweetness into one of the greatest songs ever written. Tears of joy hear. Thank you for sharing! Cheers!

i used to have two cats. yes, poncho and lefty. poncho lived a few years then disappeared. never knew what happened to poncho. lefty lived until he was 18 years old. moved him numerous times. broke his pelvis when he was about 13 and did ok. i was so sad when he had a stroke. bumping into things, falling off the bed and crying. crap. poncho and lefty. obviously, love this townes van zandt song because lefty died about 15 years ago. damn, now i'm feelin' old...thanks for the post. p.s. now i have a cat named sybil. go figure.

It's sad that Townes Van Zandt didn't live to his song become so famous by so many. Like Gram Parsons, the best die too young. Rock on Townes, and EmmyLou

Brilliant ! I love the way she acknowledges each player during their solo . When she does a Gram Parsons it's pure gold...🎸

When she sings this song, she just can't be beat..Incredible and thank you for posting!

No one hits the heartstrings like Emmy Lou!

Emmylou Harris, she is simply wonderful. Illuminated.

I would pay money to hear Emmylou sing the damn phone book

Dude with the hair? It's Buddy Miller. Anytime you hear a guitar vibrato in this genre it's probably him. And she's a lovely lady.

The most beautiful lady in country music and her voice is so good. Beautiful in every way.

I love you Emmylou Harris

Thanks so much Emmy and band. Just the cream of the crop.

Great performance...Buddy is excellent on backing vocals and mandolin as well!!!!

I keep making it back to this song.... Epic!!!!! A friend is starting to build a 12 string Mando-Guitar.... This song is his inspiration.... 😊😊😊

inspiration for all of us looking for someone to just play with

Emmy Lou is an incredibly beautiful woman. I have enjoyed seeing her a lot more since her hair went white. Perfect. She sings much better than she did. Experience counts.

I saw her and Rodney at the Magestic about 10 days ago. Great show. Still looks great in her mid 60's. Recall seeing her, Don Williams and Waylon about 1976. Didn't realize at that time what a great band she had, because I was there to see Waylon. Took a girl about half my age. I'm not sure she knew who she was watching.

She looks an angel and singing like an angel .When i hear her voice , It makes my mind clear ,forget my problems. When seeing her she is the perfect lady

Emmylou number one||||||

Such a beautiful woman with such a beautiful voice. She looks and sounds like an angel.

her 'spy boy' group here was one of her best line ups, imo.

Still got it

One of the most beariful ladies of country and great song I love you Emmy Lou!!!

Three girls and their Buddy. Check it out.

At the very beginning you can almost see in her eyes, the memories of when she sung this with Townes running through her mind.

How many artists today are as good or better in concert than in the studio?

Emmylou you are so great. Merle is looking down at youi today. You did his song beautifully . Alway a fan

Written by Townes Van Zandt. Watch the Willie Nelson video version and you'll see Townes in many of the scenes.. at 1:04 of the video you see him upclose as the camera pulls back. At 1:44 he pulls up along side of Merle. At 2:39 he watches Lefty (Merle) leave on his horse. At 4:44 he's playing guitar at a table in the bar where Willie and Merle are finishing the song. Townes used to tell the story about a night when he was pretty high and messed up and the local cops picked him up. Two cops were in the front seat asking him questions when he mentioned that he was a songwriter and singer. "Oh yeah?" said the cop who was of Hispanic descent...name one" "Pancho and Lefty" came Townes' reply. "Hey that's our favorite song said the other cop..who wasn't of Hispanic descent.. guess which one of us is nicknamed Lefty?" It was the Hispanic cop.. great story..

Beautiful classy lady!

my alltime fave Emmylou tune. just gorgeous live. she is the best.

I have been a ware and a fan of Emmy Lou since her Graham Parson days n the early 70s.. I swear she will make my heart race into my 70s. She is an absolutely beautiful Person woman and performer. If I had my life to do over I would have found her early and loved her always.

Emmylou had a very, very tall shadow to come out from under when she lost Gram & now making a Townes Van Zandt her own. Only the very best can do that!

Best version.
