Alison Krauss Lay My Burden Down

[@ricksquires6020]

Look folks - no effects, additives or special kit - just a bunch of truly talented people… Thank you, Lord.

[@deborahn.6215]

She is incredible... PITCH PERFECT VOICE...no wonder she has won MORE GRAMMY'S than any other singer... what a GOD GIVEN TALENT!

[@ReverendElvis]

you can see that in the old videos when she wasn't famous yet. that's true talent. luckily she's so down to earth that she hasn't burned out like some others with equally great talent

[@durdengc]

Alison Krauss is the greatest and best singer in the world and she and Ricky Skaggs have the best blue grass/country/folk bands in the world.

[@leonrocker2114]

Allison , I can still see you and your pet chicken walking down the sidewalk on hill street. Your neighbor across the street. You have the voice of an angel. Leon

[@1Skeptik1]

I don't much care for Blue Grass and I'm not religious BUT Alison is my vision of an angel. A mysterious beauty is hers.

[@basicaa]

If you planted hope today in any hopeless heart, if someone’s burden was lighter because you did your part, if you caused a laugh that chased a tear away, if tonight your name is mentioned when someone kneels to pray. Then your day was well spent.

[@seattleman1969]

This is what music should be about. Musicianship, melody, harmony, perfect interplay of the instrument, balance, no one trying to stand out only making music as it should be.

[@101wrf]

My dog of 13 years just died. This is bringing me a little comfort. Great song.

[@patsyalexshonis7631]

Welcome played this at my daughters funeral last month. It was one of her favorite songs. She was a fan of Alison Krauss.

[@jpn5525]

This video is 12 years old and the music sounds fresh and new! Amazing!

[@Anthony-gl3xd]

It is almost unfair to have so much incredible talent on stage together in this one group of musicians. They are the best of the best.

[@markthompson790]

Nice of God to share an angel to let us know what the sound track in heaven is like.

[@SuperRick004]

+Mark Thompson Hey Mark i have been listening to Alison all night and I have been at a loss for words because I don't have enough time to say them all. You have summed it up for me. thanks , Love her! Great talent! Again thanks!

[@toytoybabygirl]

+Mark Thompson So true !!

[@sandykirkland7455]

I agree 100%

[@tanjakankaansyrja6471]

love this comment. very true

[@Jencifer13]

Exactly. If I believed in Heaven, I'd swear she was an angel.

[@dwayneterrell1915]

Ain't she beautiful she is so beautiful and so talented God bless her

[@TexasJim1956]

How can you not love this group. Allison has the voice of an Angle, Jerry Douglas has no equal, Dan and Ron are nothing less than amazing on guitar, mandolin, banjo and vocals.

[@eric456tcb]

Don’t forget Barry Bales on standup bass…

[@stephenlovett89]

A sample of the Angel's music that awaits Christ's children!!

[@ronkistner2672]

an angel came to earth to sing for us

[@davidausema6086]

Excellent tune from one of my favorite movies: "Get Low". I would highly recommend this film.

[@Jason-hq1mk]

Her voice is just incredible. This is phenomenal.

[@heaven-is-real]

yes so crystal clear and deeply moving

[@heaven-is-real]

pure silk yes, velvet and smooth, sublime

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)

[@billymcnally3924]

Amen Jesus is the way

[@paulorientetheluffaranch]

Judi, He's given me that rest even when I wouldn't stop going. Hahaha. Maybe, that's Psalm 23 catching up to me??

[@maleekaalbarran7671]

Judi Harbin Thank you. My soul is weary and restless. There are times I wake up and only wish I didn't wake to another day. But I know it is because I have neglected God. After my mother died last year is when this started. Her death hurt me deep. But then I read this verse just now. It gives me hope.

[@koolbks8996]

Bless you, Michelle. My Mom just passed on Christmas Day, but what a glorious day she went on to no pain and suffering. She loved Jesus so much and she is with Him now. Be comforted!

[@holliehigdon8285]

Michelle Albarran you're amazing!!! Keep going. I'm trying so hard since my husband is leaving me. I NEED SOMETHING in my life. what I've been doing ain't working.....

[@Gods2ndFavoriteBassPlyr]

Thanks Alison... for puttin bluegrass back on the horizon in a serious and tasteful way! And for what it's worth, I think David Letterman has been a great supporter of bluegrass and acoustic music in the past... Nice job, everyone :)

[@waynelockwood9570]

What a great Singer Alison Krauss is ,no matter when a person hears her with a lot of great Songs and Hymn's too.

[@nicovlahavas4982]

alison....it has often been said.....has a voice of an angel...yes....she does because she is an angel.....100 per cent pure love shines through her soul....

[@murdabenne7475]

Amazing. Beautiful. Pitch perfect with no autocorrect. No autotune, no vocoding, no thumping overly loud processing, Just talent. Stuff these days has been so overprocessed worse than cheap lunch meat. When did talent and musicianship go out of fashion? Compare/Contrast WAP. Get off my lawn!

[@astronomy7911]

She has the voice of a angel. God bless you Alison!

[@boboboboski5137]

Her voice is a gift from the heavens above. I fall in love with her every time she sings. She's the female Barry White.

[@davidcash1817]

Talented Lady.. Never get tired of listening to her and her music.

[@rlsmith7792]

She can do almost any style of music and make it hers. Just put on some headphones, close your eyes and listen to her voice and her band - magnificent.

[@donniegray553]

Couldn't have said it better. I agree 100 percent.

[@tinatuague1549]

Richard Smith

[@emi-fr5mf]

She is beautiful, talented, kind, and a woman of God. Praise be to Jesus!

[@TaedetSe]

I saw Alison and US on Cape Cod in MA. Best show I have ever attended!! Worth twice the ticket proce and I couldn't get over the homogenous mix of attendees: white collar, blue collar, no collar, old, young (pre teen in some cases) and all of them were dead quiet when she and US struck it up.

[@wiar65]

Thank you Lord, for handling her Medal of Art Thank you President Trump.

[@ThePhotobug561]

Alison Krauss and Union Station is simply a band composed of the best musicians on their respective instruments in the world.

[@dennislafrinere4242]

Yeah, I have to go with that as well. In their johnra they are the best

[@rhondawebb7985]

I fully concur! A league of their own....

[@dickbullwood9486]

There is still some beautiful music left in this world instead of the trash in the garbage that we have shoved down our throats constantly

[@robvankleef2559]

I agree!

[@leonardlloyd1089]

Allison sings like an angel.

[@FRANCECHILD]

HAVE MERCY JESUS CHRIST. AMEN

[@deboz65]

There is none other then Alison Krauss that can sing a lovely as her!

[@margaretdelatorre2665]

Debra Goodson n

[@Figurethat111]

Aoife O’ Donovan sings this as well!

[@1128gaga]

So pure and real!! This is timeless and soulful. She is what legendary sounds like.

[@1128gaga]

I agree. Love her stuff and Union Station. ☺

[@Rob0Anybody]

Beautiful music. One of those things you stumble across on KZbin that makes you keep surfing.

[@paulorientetheluffaranch]

I agree Jennifer. She has such and unmistakable voice.

[@jamesjamers5258]

She has the PERFECT voice in my opinion. I could listen to it all day! Sometimes I do :)

Hello

[@bfgair1]

The very best show I've ever gone to was this group at Red Rocks , Colo.

[@cathyrusso8113]

She has such an angelic voice

[@rickb9238]

Not a bad note ever when Allison and Union Station perform, wonderful as usual.👍👍

[@dannoharlski]

Let's also not forget to give credit to Aoife O'Donovan who wrote this amazing song. She too has a very beautiful voice. If you haven't heard of her before, check her out. Very talented singer/song writer!

[@jodyvice4463]

I love her voice

[@SvenssonIwas]

I just saw (& heard, & spoke with) her! I attended an I'm With Her concert, and while I thought their singing was wonderful over the radio and online, in person (& 30 feet away!) was totally incredible! She is beautiful and very engaging - my new favorite of the three (though I will always appreciate Sara & Sarah). Of course, I have really enjoyed Alison Krauss for years - don't think I forgot her!

[@TheLawlessland]

All I know is the Angel Band has surely collected a lot of my favorite musicians this year-I'm not supposed to still be here-I guess I'm lucky or I've been blessed with another Miracle!

[@wollffeemurray5313]

Alison krauss and Union station PURE CLASS

[@stephenreynolds847]

Jesus said, "Come unto me and I will give you rest' Amen!

[@nckywilcat1]

Such a beautiful and emotional song..❤️

[@andrearichardson9842]

She sings like a angel. Has only gotten better thru the many years I have listen to her. 🧚‍♀️💫

[@stevesharkey470]

The most Beautiful voice I have ever heard.

[@ES-ii7xn]

She's so beautiful and a voice to match. Union Station is one of the best bands ever.

[@netwonc]

I use to tell my son that she has a voice straight from Heaven. A blessing we all can enjoy. thanks,,,,,

[@selinafaircrest9943]

lay thy burden on my shoulders, for I shall offer shelter to all and rest to those who need it most

[@crystalhowley4259]

Selina Faircrest praise be to Jesus!

[@A19316]

I am trained in the jazz music field, but occasionally I listen to high quality country music. This is definitely HIGH QUALITY and it reminds me of my carpet and upholstery cleaning days in summer rural territory.

[@tammyhill4757]

+Keith in bluegrass it's called a fiddle! :)

[@Nephertiti1]

Or Ballads. Why does it have to fit a category?

[@joewright9879]

My girlfriend and I watched Get Low last night. This song was at the end. Good movie, good song.

[@felix49qwe4rty]

Alison is just as beautiful as ever. We saw her at the Chautauqua Institute over the weekend.

[@susandoyle6551]

Love😂

[@ellendendrijver473]

GREAT ARTIST

[@markharold2732]

Hello my lady how are you

[@angelacox3401]

Thank you Jesus for all you have done for us

[@disherofpain]

The complex verses, dynamic choruses that touch all the deep notes back to the high one, it tittilates the senses.. they don't just repeat one catchy tune they create rythms and ride the waves through the spectrum of emotions, laying you down softly before blowing you gently back into the musical clouds of bliss like a feather so light of weight.. beauty

[@chicagozephyr2399]

Eddie - you wrote the above 5 years ago - wish I had read it sooner! Wonderfully written - capturing this ensemble's talents and the true depth of the song!

[@rauldearriz4984]

Thank you Alison, your music is a gift. I will accept the gift any day.

[@sheltondk43]

Angelic voice, as always, and she gets more beautiful every year.

[@winterflower5924]

sheltondk43 I can sing like her, which is creepy she looks like my mom

[@kevinweaver4265]

WOW! what a talented group, their work beautiful and timeless.

[@stylianosisaakidis3565]

they are all masters of their craft...her voice is ethereal...

[@deeprat1]

i love this woman she's got a voice of angels

[@TheScottybobear]

Who would hate her? I have been following her in a christian band since 19. Now, I'm an atheist, but her voice reminds me of a Angel! If there was a angel that existed....Then I'm wrong. Proud 2 know her....I had the pleasure 2 meet her. In Georgia, My co. was part of the lighting and Audio. And I saw her backstage. A wonderful person and delight. She was talking 2 me that if her smelly armpits stinks. Pure Allison. That's about as human as you can get. She is beautiful inside and out!

[@kdd3051]

How beautiful she is. Her beauty is everywhere, mostly, of course, through her voice. But her beauty is interconnected spiritually and physically.

[@robbiebeck22]

Well said Mary Jane.

[@susannabonke8552]

exactly. you hit the nail on the head ( excuse me this is not MY language...)

[@silvergirl7810]

Susanna Bonke you said it perfectly

[@robbiechandler7858]

Been. following AKUS since about 1994 and they just get better & better like fine wine!!!!!

[@moseswwlee]

Surely Alison Krauss is an angel of God!

[@Willsonitt]

Wow, What a deep deep song. The words cut right through, Burdens, We all have them. It's just how we deal with them, weather you let them get to you or not.. Me I choose Not, but that's doesn't mean it don't just smack me in the face and knock me over. I'd swim out to save you and not let you drowned. I'd fly with you, if I could. I'm never to far away, just out of reach sometimes.

[@markharold2732]

Hello how are you

[@mmichaeldonavon]

Couldn't say it any better! Twenty years ago, when I first saw her, and heard her sing, I was hooked!! She is such a lovely woman; the epitome of femininity - no question about it.

[@deirdremacdougall8415]

My favorite country blue grass singer. Voice like an Angel.❤

[@markharold2732]

Hello how are you

[@MrJoseppi2009]

I heard Allison and company sing Going to Carolina in my mind. Absolutely stunned me for the good. James Taylor was there in the audience, everyone was blown away. Truely a blessed talent.

[@Chatticathi]

Alison has the most beautiful, angelic voice

[@markharold2732]

Hello

[@scottjones9187]

This woman is an amazing Christian person with a beautiful heart and amazing voice. Her and her band are absolutely amazing. All the other women in nowadays so-called country music and gospel music need to sit in the audience and listen to this Angelic voice.

[@alexbanks8429]

What incredible song writing, this song was so full of tension. The notes and how she sang them kept me feeling like a dam was about to break. This would be a great song to use for launching into a more upbeat number.

[@monologtube]

Alex Banks Songwriting credit goes to the incredible Aoife O'Donovan!

[@RockShopT]

***** I was looking for the songwriting credit. I have just seen the Aoife version but I still prefer the Alison version. Great job from Aoife anyway.

[@allanbriggs807]

@@monologtube Yes - Aiofe wrote the song -"I'm With Her" have a great version of this song (with Aiofe). Allison's version is also excellent.

[@OlafRonald]

Great song by Aiofe O'Donovan who recorded her own version this year,which is awesome too....

[@lindseyjoseph269]

the voice of a angel Alison Krauss.

[@bobby7771117]

You should hear Jackie Evancho--and I adore Alison Krauss&Union Station! In all sincerity, BobbyK Ms. Evancho will lead in disbelief--she's this tiny 10 year girl-now 13- has an opera voice among, and comparable to the greatest opera singers in the world! And she sings precious songs, opera and pop! Her "Let it Be, or "Bridge Over Troubled Water", will lead you breatless, as well as any song she sings! She is a true miracle of God! Sincerely, BobbyK

[@glo26147]

Alison of the heavens....your only sin is in HOLDING that fiddle for the entire song. Otherwise, I coasted through the skies on autopilot with my eyes closed. Simply beautiful!!!

[@Esmeandsasha]

I'm not religious at all, but I grew up to this womans music. To me, this music is relaxing and a part of of my childhood.

alison krauss has THE most beautiful voice

[@ballofwax9yards]

Gonna lay my burden down Lay my body in the ground Cold clay against my skin But I don't care at all Can't seem to find my piece of mind So with the earth I'll lay entwined Six feet underground My feet are warm and dry When I get to the other side I'll put your picture way up high But I'm not coming back to you It's just too far If I was cast off on the sea Would you come and look for me Or would you just let me sink Beneath the waves so blue What if I had learned to fly Fly all night till day drew nigh Touch down upon a branch and Scan the crowd for you When I touch my feet on the land I'll kiss your lips and take you in But you know I'm not here to stay It's just too far Darling can't you hear me cry My bones are broke My tongue is tied The moon is swaying back and forth Against the navy sky Is all I can see My body is trembling on my knees Just have a little mercy on me Run away and hide When I sleep the angels sing But I cannot hear a thing Eyes close Dreaming of the better days gone by When I wake the trumpets play And I'm standing at the gates Fall down and joy I know my race has just been won When I was young my momma would say Well life is hard, but that's O.K. If you can make it through the day It's not that far No, it's not that far
