Amanda Shires - Take It Like A Man (Official Live Session)

[@electricnebraska]

One of the most amazingly unpredictable and strangely intimate songwriters on the scene currently. Bravo Mrs. Shires.

[@MoiraRussell]

Looked her up because of the Highwomen cover of "The Chain" on Howard Stern and I liked her voice and violin playing. I am BLOWN. AWAY. This is spectacular.

[@GreyCat-qd6yi]

she’s been around for a decade fools

[@rossogden9920]

Love the last line where "I can take it like a man" morphs into "I can take it like Amanda."

[@MoiraRussell]

That is great!

[@ajcraft-hello]

❤

[@AL-hz6bo]

As a traumatized Amanda, this made me feel whole.❤ thank you, @amandashires

[@mackenziegilley8716]

" I know the cost of flight, is LANDING"..WOW, love these lyrics

[@Dstewart77]

This has a Cranberries/Radio Head vibe to it. Shires vocals are unique and incredible. Jason Isbel’s guitar skills are solid. I Love this!!!!

[@chriscocks3670]

On the button

[@WhyTheHorseface]

I don’t get that at all 😂

[@doloreserin]

I was thinking of a Cranberries Dolores O'Riordan vibe too. Love Amanda's voice. Recently discovered her through The Highwomen's cover of The Chain on Howard Stern.

[@jlight1965]

Saw her at the Black Deer Festival in Kent (UK) Mesmerising from the first note. Phenomenal voice, stage-presence and grace. The fact that such extraordinary talents as Amanda Shires and Morgan James are passed over by the big labels in favour of auto-tuned, 5 minute wonders is criminal but does nothing to diminish their star quality.

[@Scott-kv6gh]

Just discovered Amanda from her husband’s HBO documentary and am just blown away by her songwriting and that voice! Holy crap, she’s AMAZING! I feel like she needs her own documentary!

[@johnmiller8281]

this is ethereal and no other Nashville artist will be able to top this for years

[@nomo9344]

yes they will, they already have

[@taylormaxson3413]

You are upping the game for songwriters, Amanda Shires. Your humanity and grace are much needed and appreciated at this ugly time in America.

[@johntylerlewis7852]

This made me think of The Cranberries, Alanis, James Bond, and Dusty Springfield all wrapped up into one!!! I am absolutely mesmerized by your voice, your songwriting ability, and your love and fierceness when telling a story!!! 🔥🔥🔥🦋❤️🤗

[@KokomoGreenberg]

Very James Bond-y somehow

[@choonsy]

That's a "learn every word" song you will have the audience singing with you! Really great

[@Krazyred15]

Amanda Shires, you’re a national treasure. 😍🎻 So talented and unlike anyone else. Never change.

[@pitchfork804]

Who else is here from the NY Times write up! Wow, what have I been missing! Shires and the band are off the hook good!!!

[@shannonblack5828]

Dude ... I'm loving the dramatics - the climbing cracks revealing the rawness of those deep seeded emotions. Beautiful description of pain in the projected vocals

[@luvdady]

Them strings and then her haunting voice is just like damn what a tune

[@clemsontoby]

Looking forward to getting my CD. I still get a smile when I remember you introducing Jason as Mr. Amanda Shires when you in KC.

[@chriscocks3670]

This is massive. The power in Amanda's voice is visceral. So profoundly unique

[@neilmyersart]

Awesome ! Another great one from my favorite Hurricane with a Fiddle ;) 🎻💥🌊

[@mcachr]

Such a great song. It gives me the haunted feeling that Tindersticks gives. I've been listening to Jason Isbell for some years but stumbled upon Amanda yesterday, what a gem!

[@davidjordan84]

That final word- what a nice touch. 😉

[@vickisemans7238]

Absolutely the best. Like Leonard Cohen and John Prine, before her, Amanda paints truth with her music

[@leslielou4742]

I was just about to remark about how I hear Leonard's influence in this piece and how proud he would be. Prine too, of course....but this just has the delicious feel of a Leonard Cohen piece made perfect by Amanda's style, grace, and overall badassery.

[@vickisemans7238]

I cannot stop playing it!

[@markd3107]

Simply exquisite - Bravo

[@leslielou4742]

Woman. This is gold.

[@jasper_north]

Take it like A-man-da! (The Octaves of Consequence- that must be this damn Isbell again! Wow!)

[@niguel4438]

Fabulous unique voice. First but not the last time I’ll hear this lady.

[@mahtwells8869]

I am all in for the Amanda Shires Renaissance. Another great song from a great lady, and I cannot wait for the album and the tour. I mean...I can. I understand how time works, but in this case I wish it would work a smidge faster.

[@chrisscrivener4759]

This song is mesmerising and Amandas vocal performance is just stunning

[@alondathomas293]

Heard this on an interview she did with NPR a couple months back, where she performed a few songs live, and this one stood out---she also performed it on the tonight show recently. She's got a good powerful voice too.

[@chrisscrivener4759]

@@alondathomas293 ❤️

[@betho6690]

absolutely gorgeous song. a masterpiece of beauty, so happy it's now in my life. wow.

[@davidholton9667]

So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song How are you?

[@littlea1979]

Amanda - this is REALLY good.

[@miguelangelsanvicente8376]

Puff, que decir... Saludos desde Pehuajó, Argentina...!!!

[@gabel408]

Well that was fkn awesome

[@patrickholzhauer9420]

That family is loaded with talent and insight! What a breakout for Amanda and all women in the biz. Continue to climb the palace walls!!

[@cgilmo78]

The score is amazing. Like next level good.

[@woutjemusters]

Blown away!!!

[@jodyfinley9122]

God damn Amanda Shires!! 😮

[@keithkoenig5320]

Amanda looks amazing here. One word to Mr. Isbell: Respect! Looking forward to the new record. Saw Amanda on her last tour and was surprised to see the drummer for The Whigs and Eagles of Death Metal playing in her band. It was a great show, btw...Love the vibe of this song.

[@untilidie]

Kristin Weber killing it on the fiddle.

[@Luckette27]

Fabulous! 👏❤️‍🔥

[@livialasko3874]

This is the most beautiful song in the world :)

[@mogmaker]

It just doesn't get much better than this.

[@kevinbreer9218]

I have so many questions about the outfit. Specifically, is Jason now an impressionist painter? Or a pharmacist?

[@aoibh4520]

1960s hardware helper worker. 👍

[@slimturnpike]

Tenting the waistline

[@hollerheadmusic]

Don’t call what your wearing and outfit

[@eagle1ear]

It's the music, baby ......

[@mrmotherducker6535]

He is going through his Lloyd Dobbler phase

[@kitano0]

A force of nature.

[@heartsforhopelessness]

You were absolutely amazing on The Late, Late show tonight ! Love this song 💙

[@elephante_studio]

Song bird boss. Damn. Incredible.

[@GiannaFiore]

She's so beautiful!!!

[@dominicclark5342]

Absolutely stunning! 🐦

[@katyobrien3773]

This is perfection, haunting, and on repeat. Cheers to you girl💞🙌🤘

[@peacetrain3320]

What a magical voice! Love this girl’s music!

[@JohnThomWebb]

I love this! Wonderful! What a treat!

[@JohnThomWebb]

It only gets better too. On my 10th listening, I find myself looking forward to my 100th listening.

[@JlynSulliman]

Wow!!! Sooo amazing!!! Thank you Amanda!!!👋👋🎵🎶💜

[@aliendave]

This is tremendous

[@WhyTheHorseface]

“Take it like Amanda” lol. Great album. Every song is great. “Everything Has Its Time”? So sad. Love Amanda’s voice, and holy smokes how sexy can this girl GET??

[@bobsternvogel5550]

You look and sound amazing, Amanda! Always nice to see Kristin and Josee as well.

[@cmdesantis]

This is phenomenal and beautiful.

[@xuxomiya]

The drive in her voice is incredible. 👏👏👏

[@toniamoller]

loving this album so much!!!

[@DeadButHonest]

Really cool session!

[@earlfairbanks6360]

Amazing! 🔥🔥

[@johnnyWas66]

Never heard of her, awsome...

[@LimeyRedneck]

The writing, music and video 🔥🔥🔥🤠💜

[@thegirlwhohasflown]

This is amazing

[@DTaylor-u7c]

Nature is surely a language for the most important literacy. The body language is overt here just before the solo .... moving toward the guitarist and closing herself up. solo....SOLO...... I can here her. Loud and clear. Beyond and within the song. Would love to talk with her . Even for just a short while. Stay strong Amanda.

[@jrchanning]

Incredible song, really whetting my appetite for the album, you are killin' it !! :)

[@テレぽん太郎]

一発で好きになった

[@marlonhernandez3059]

La escuché con esta canción en radio WFUV, y me encontré esta oficial....están genial...excelente rola, que atmosférica se escucha

[@charleshall1095]

Amazing 👏

[@bigtone667]

Great song, love the last lyric!!

[@donna3465]

What was the last lyric? I couldn’t understand her.

[@hummelhuef]

great stuff! love it

[@ArloTarr]

Powerful stuff🤘 This song and video definitely captured Amanda. Very cool!

[@litao3014]

I just found out about Amanda Shires from Blackberry Smoke and I really love your songs and performance. 🤟

[@AD-fx2qd]

Great song. Great performance.

[@chrisguest7367]

Bit like the young Kate Bush ..but Amanda has truly carved herself a unique niche up there with today's premier female singer songwriters . In the final stanza she sings "take it like a man(da)..a superb and briliant vocal twist in the tail

[@greghammer5321]

she is a super star

[@rootsrednecksandradicals]

This version sounds so good!

[@JoelWende]

Such a great song! Amazing Amanda! I did think Jason was wearing a bathrobe at first 😂

[@texasreddirt1408]

This is amazing song and incredible vocal performance. I didn't care for some of her older work, but this is extremely good.

[@translateslowly]

Holy moly girl!

[@CatS-mt7wq]

Wow, what a stunning beauty. Jaw dropping. Good song too.

[@Michael777Simmons]

Awesome thanks

[@davidstisher7389]

Simply beautiful.

[@Rivermike86]

Please come perform at Floores Country Store!!!!

[@machinehead6564]

Great Stuff

[@shanefrank3281]

This is a very nice video and her voice and singing style is very unique. Is there some symbolism or meaning to the chair sitting part at the end? It seems kind of deliberate and with a purpose..just wondering if there was more to it.

[@myimperfectlife2023]

I wondered this too. She sits very similar in the Hawk for Dove video.

[@chuckpadgettmusic]

My guess is that she’s ‘manspreading’ to emphasize that she can take it like a man.

[@HP_____]

Her vocal has a bit of Siouxsie Sioux in it. I like it.

[@franktuminski8460]

Bravo !!!

[@duanerykhus9425]

Thank you

[@montsitagonzalez3700]

Come back to Spain soon ❤❤❤

[@untilidie]

Dare I say this is better than the studio version.

[@Ring0fSaturn]

Wow. Just heard Amanda interviewed on NPR, heard her briefly with Highwomen and thoroughly enjoyed this version. The strings and Isbell on guitar and Amanda's voice all support strong poetry in the lyrics. Now, about that outfit... it's lovely and rather distracting.

[@donna3465]

She may be the most beautiful woman of this generation.

[@gordonanderson3111]

I sent a message to our former pres'dent asking him to go to listen to this song of yours go to the New York courtrooms and - yep TAKE IT LIKE A MAN, sir. It seems to have helped... ...calm him down.

[@donnanash4984]

Wow👍

[@adewebbmusic7488]

Is there an official Amanda Shires fanclub I can join?

[@KelseyCreated]

At the end “take it like a man da” 😉 I see you

[@dougfoster1555]

Simply a Goddess

[@hollowspacer]

Jason in that trench coat looking like a creeper. Lol. This song kicks ass and that solo is 🔥

[@cityz3n]

3:18 what a turnaround!

[@michaelflores4908]

❤

[@johnconstantinopoulos7446]

she spreads at the chair....still singing.

[@Jm-pt5ef]

Like a man ..da " pretty cleaver 👍.
