I'm an old 60's/70's guy who hung around long enough to enjoy a little 'moon-walking' and a 1985 piece called 'We Are The World'...then got away for a while, particularly from the rock-ish stuff. thanks for the re entry ACL! Hope to see MCC this year in Cape Cod.

Probably the best song of an incredible career, that somehow despite all the success, never really got to where it looked like it was going to reach....co-written with her awesome producer John Jennings.....I have never tired of listening to it
I just have to come back to this song now and then; borrowed the tape from a friend back in '91 (State of the Heart album) and kept rewinding to this song..."Quittin' Time was good, too. Have liked this video since I first saw it; Mary truly looks hurt, and I want to give her a hug.
WOw, 32 years ago. I was 26 when this was out and though MCC , with that 80s hairstyle, was the cutest , most talented newer singer out back then. Never got tired of this video.

This song has everything, it's a great story song, its lyrics are relatable, and it's got a melody that between Mary Chapin Carpenter's voice, and the band behind her it blazes like a fire. She's written so many great songs it's impossible to pick a handful but this one's a big favourite of mine. Well done Mary!!!

Saw her live in Melbourne Australia with my husband in the 90's, absolutely fabulous show, no bells and whistles, just MCC--her voice and guitar and minimal backing.
This is my favorite Mary Chapin Carpenter song. My favorite line in this song is, "When she burns you again and your phone doesn't ring--Bay-bee, it's me." ROTF. We miss you, Mary Chapin Carpenter!!!!

"When your phone doesn't ring, It's me Babe! : Amazing writing.
Such a great songwriter, guitarist and singer. Go Chapin!
What an amazing talent. It's a shame that today's female country singers are so pale in comparison to her.
Genre wise this really wasn’t country or even country rock. This was more like “alternative pop rock”. And it’s music to my ears 😎
This Lady speaks to the heart and soul. If she doesn't to you-then examine your cares and priorities of life.

***** thanks, Bradley. It was Austin City Limits back in '89...two exceptional talents...Mary Chapin Carpenter and Garth Brooks. My first venture into 'country/country-rock'. I'm an old 60's/70's guy who hung around long enough to enjoy a little 'moon-walking' and a 1985 piece called 'We Are The World'...then got away for a while, particularly from the rock-ish stuff. thanks for the re entry ACL! Hope to see MCC this year in Cape Cod.

she is so underrated one of the best artists ever
This is the real country music I was raise on a little boy
Such crisp sound and great lyrics. Just pure talent.
My favorite song by her!
This song brings back many memories. My first year of college staying behind in the facility long after school hours for my choir. Walking the empty halls and getting some food out of the vending machine...and listening to this song over the intercom speakers. Seemed like it always was on every week. Loved it and fell in love with MCC especially when she did '10,000 Miles' for 'Fly Away Home'
Just be yourself. Live your best for God. He's the only one you really can please with your life and love. Be who He made you to be. Love this song...pray to our great God. He knows this tune better than anyone. Be yourself ! Don't allow anyone to take away the love in your heart. This is a beautiful song by a woman with a beautiful voice.
Mary Chapin hit #8 in Billboard, 11-25-89. God bless! Way to go, Mary Chapin, for finally quittin' smokin'!

Amazing! I seen her in concert a number of times, my dad loves her. This song has always been one of my favorites. She has so many great songs! What a legend❤️
This lady continues to make wonderful music.
Way so under rated...great singer and songwriter. Amazing voice and way better than today's crap! IMO
Young here...love her singing. Latest album "Dirt and Stars " beautiful lyrics, her guitar playing is amazing, Her voice is a bit deeper, but just as pure...the best 👌
She is awesome!
I missed this old classic song back when country was country
MCC and Hal Ketchum would have had a great duet together! MCC ruled the 90's!
I love this lady. She sings to the logical, no nonsense side of people. With a voice that is a cross between Anne Murray and Laura Branigan.

90s country is just timeless. I miss this kind of country.
I crave for good music like this that hits that right Nerve makes u feels so good
Love songs that have a message or tell a story, and this is definitely one of my favorite Mary Chapin Carpenter songs!
I remember it fondly. None of the gang of stoops ever heard of it. It got me through a very difficult relationship I relationship. Life can get real hard for a man as well. Thank you ,Mary. Yours truly,Donovan Lee Olson Jr. Keep up the good work.
Miss the 90s
This song, MIDDLE GROUND and YOU WIN AGAIN really told my story in the 90s. I am sure this is true of so many women of my generation. She is a brilliant song writer.
love Mary Chapin Carpenter. she is one of the best. miss hearing her. she needs to come out of hiding and do some concerts in Utah!
Her folks were her best supporters .just one more example of how powerful love is .right is never wrong .crazy vocal control .that was mom working her up the scale at 4 yr old

There's not a single song MCC has written that I don't like. She pours her heart and soul into every single one of them. My only regret is that for the last 20+ years, I've been so busy working and raising children that I lost track of her. Trying to make up for lost time quickly. Love her and her music!
She's cute as hell in this video! Her eyes are amazing!
MCC is so wonderful and I think under rated in country circles.
love her such pure country voice
My best female singer with Underwood and Tillis
