Alison Krauss & Union Station - Paper Airplane

[@kattwin1]

I love how she hits those notes! She's singing so subdued, and then BAM! She's there! Her sound is so authentic and pure.

[@bobhill3941]

That's what drew me to her over 15 years ago and why I introduced my mom to her. She brings me to tears sometimes.

[@Novalunosis90]

I have been in love with this woman's voice since I was a little kid.

her voice is like "HI DEF" audio! Each note is as crisp as a cool Nebraska autumn morning......

[@filmedocumentare]

Very nice comment, pastel style, poetic imagination

[@JeremyWhiteShow]

Mike Shipley was one of the greatest engineers and mixers of all time, his work on this record is untouchable. RIP Mike. Legend!

[@passenger62]

@@JeremyWhiteShow Did Shipley get a grammy for this record?

[@___xyz___]

@@passenger62 I don't know either of them. But he damn well should have.

[@Sluggo01]

Her voice has been so well-defined all of her life if you go back and listen to some very very early stages in life it’s the VOICE quality

[@myfairyblueworld]

I don't consider myself a country fan but I am a fan of great music. Allison, you have the voice of an angel.

[@outerlimitsurvey]

+Anne-Marie Rosado More Bluegrass than country and you are right; her voice is sublime. I'm not much of a fan of country music either but some of the women in country are amazing. Emmylou Harris IMHO is the best voice in country music. If you go back farther Patsy Cline was just wonderful and no doubt she would have made a lot more great music if she didn't die so young at 30. Sadly all the great country is overshadowed by crap like Garth Brooks and Shania Twain.

[@myfairyblueworld]

@@outerlimitsurvey agreed. I grew up with Patsy Cline, she was one of my dad's favorites.

No brainer and a face to match

[@shyba2011]

Yet it can be haunting.

[@confosos]

She has not just an amazing voice, but she really puts herself out there. Almost every time I hear her voice it is almost as if she is opening a window into her soul. Giving you a chance to catch a glimpse of what she feels and how she looks at things. But, it just seems deeper than most attain. She is one of a kind, set apart from the rest. It isn't that I would say she is better, but more so she is in a different category than most artists I hear.

[@AlexMick]

this song made me cry today on the train... I really didn't expect that to happen, I have heard it before, but today it just did speak to me. I can't stop listening to it again and again. There are loads of comments about how good Alison is and how amazing her voice is. It is true, but guys, come on, listen to this song and its lyrics, it is a MASTERPIECE!!!

[@chadthompson8987]

I can't understand why this was not something that made it so much further than it did. I love this song and most importantly love the lyrics and the emotion behind them!

[@nguevara1018531]

a true queen of country music.

[@juliandarch9278]

I love a bit of country and she sings it well

[@jeffpinson5646]

Sings like an Angel. Always thought that.

[@WillThompsonMusic]

I think I'm becoming obsessed with Alison Krauss & Union Station

[@wymanborreson2383]

I have ever sense I 1st Heard her sing.

[@MrFrendan]

Will Thompson they are fine musicians.

[@pascalmortz4683]

I'm in the same case :)

[@MrFrendan]

Will Thompson not many bands as fine. No woman’s voice is more angelic.

[@marksmith1916]

That's one good obsession.

[@LucidDream]

She's so good. When I was younger my parents took me to see her. (Like mid '90s, I think.) I swear she hasn't aged a bit either, she's still just as beautiful as she ever was. Her voice is just...beyond words.

[@96cutlas]

SHE GETS BETTER WITH AGE

[@paulaloewen2517]

I think she maybe my favorite; her voice is captivating! Best female vocalist ever!

[@becky.sellers4339]

Love her music

[@pedrolinares9676]

And her music loves you❤

[@TheScottybobear]

Chills! I know her birth date and have worked in georgia for her. Anyone that loves her...you are my friend forever! She is an angel and kept me from doing a shit load of bad things. She makes the world happy! Thanks for posting!

[@johndavid2800]

i have been following alison from the beginning of her days. she has a voice of an angel.

[@adolpholiverbush2]

John David Me too. She's amazing, as is the entire band. Pure magic.

[@rocnpop62]

I just saw them. They opened the show with this. Grown men were crying!!!! No lie. The most beautiful thing i've ever heard in my life.

[@thomastillman5395]

The best singer and the best band in the world.

[@rationallogo]

Her music and voice are the zenith, the epitome of classic Americana. I've driven cross country solo several times and listened to her music only on several of those drives, through Iowa, Nebraska........the sights and sounds were so congruent with each other. Thanks, Alison Krauss and Union Station, for all the great music all these years.

[@wesg7780]

Rationallogo i can only imagine the sights along with alison's voice. Spine-chilling and amazing!

[@rationallogo]

@Alison Krauss You’re not the real Alison. Shame on you.

Most gorgeous woman on earth with the voice of an angel

[@rydiem8628]

hands down..best voice of all time!

I love the way this video was shot. I love the 'cinema'-tone value of the video

[@anthonybender8965]

does this song make anyone else cry .

[@LucidDream]

Some music has that affect on me. Music often stimulates my mind. It's kinda hard to describe...but when I hear voices like hers it sends a chill through me. There is just a pureness to her voice that I absolutely love to hear. You can tell she is singing from a special place. And that's worthy of a few tears, I say. When you just allow yourself to listen.

[@Freddtheoldmechanic]

yep!!

[@louisguerrette3610]

every time.....memories

[@jabodl1]

Ehhhhhh no

[@SkyWire88]

My eyes are filled right now while I'm reading all the thoughts here about Allison..... I can't really add anything more .....maybe someday I'll have the words. Thank you Allison and the Union Station.

[@snicolle76]

I'm a firefighter by profession......sometimes I wonder how I ended up becoming one......when my heart becomes heavy and the shift was long......I find myself coming here to hear Alison's voice....it comforts me and takes me away to a beautiful place......Thank you Alison and Union Station for sharing your talents with the world.

[@kevinhunt7511]

I am fair to certain that Allison Krauss is indeed an angel walking the earth among mortal man...The guys in Union Station are of that rare quality that Heaven would couple her with. What a group!

[@boulterontarioman48]

Alison has the most wonderful voice sent directly from the angels in heaven. There will never be another angelic voice like Alisons again, ever. I wish I could have seen Alison when she was at the Rogers Blu grass Festival in Rogers, Ohio in 1987. Alison was only 16 years old and I would have loved to see her when she was up here in Ohio. Alison you are a true angel sent directly from the angels in Heaven. God Bless you Alison. P.S. And why are you not married yet? Take Care Kiddo. Boulterontarioman48 Mr. Weber, New Waterfod,Ohio.

[@markspangler6539]

Her voice is golden, her technique is so polished and spot on, and last but definitely not least so beautiful on so many levels, but very easy on the eyes. Would love to write music with her as I lost my son at the age of 17, just a few months before his high school graduation. There are some sad lyrics to be written which would fit perfect with her style of music. She has stayed true to what's made her so popular with some deviation but returning to her roots and not dashing off to what's popular. Sounds like some of her talent is being passed on to her son. I too was given a talent to play by ear on many different stringed instruments ands its a true joy to hear you play. Love ya Alison.....you go girl.

[@Skanda1111]

Please write you song and play it sir. Wishing you light!

I LOVE her! LOVE this song. Heaven sent voice.

[@erichbrough6097]

Heard AKUS do Paper Airplane live on the TODAY show, and Alison just tore it up, especially that last chorus- made the track seem like a tame rough draft by comparison. 'Our love will die, I know'... and I just sat there and bawled like a baby! Once in a generation voice, simply incomparable.

[@adolpholiverbush2]

Erich Brough I always, and I mean always, tear up just a bit at the line "how many days should I smile with a frown, 'cause you're not around..." Always hits me in the feels.

[@erichbrough6097]

Adolph Oliver Bush , the line where she just went for it was 'how many nights must I wake up alone/ and _know_ in my _soul_ [her emphasis] / that it's almost over now...' Ripped me up like a cheap suit.

[@VickiFourie1]

I've put it all behind me Nothin' left to do or doubt Some may say But every silver linin' Always seems to have a cloud That comes my way Anticipated pleasure Or unexpected pain No choice I feel Love is hard to measure Hidden in the rain That's why you'll find me Here all alone and still wonderin' why Waitin' inside for the cold to get colder And here where it's clear that I've wasted my time Hopin' to fly 'cause it's almost over now People come together People go their own way Love conquers few And I'll do whatever I'll say what I need to say Just not for you How many days should I smile with a frown 'Cause you're not around with the sun on your shoulders? And how many nights must I wake up alone And know in my soul that it's almost over now? Love is like a paper airplane Flyin' in the folded dent Ridin' high, dippin' low But innocence is fair game I'm hopin' I can hold it in Our love will die, I know
