Brandi Carlile and John Prine Angel From Montgomery

Cayamo 2015

[@kevinderr440]

God speaks to me in a language made of sunsets shining across rivers, bays and oceans and through the lyrics of song writers like John Prine.

[@MarkZook]

Wow. That, my friend, is beautiful.

[@rahang4126]

Her powerful voice could easily flatten John's voice but as soon as she sings together with him, she does it so humbly and cares not to steal the limelight. Brandi, you're really a great woman !

[@marcylynnrothman]

RAHAN G this is true

[@dcollier7239]

Well said

[@janeferguson1986]

Brandi (and I've watched her a lot) in person and online will NEVER disrespect her mentors or her elders. She will do what she is called to do in a performance. If it's play 2nd fiddle, that's what she'll do. I'll never forget seeing her quietly feed the words to a song to a younger performer (when they didn't know the words) so they wouldn't be embarrassed. She took herself out of a group performance to do so. She's about the we.

[@Watchoutforsnakez]

Goosebumps. I love her voice.

[@alfredgrahammer2403]

When Brandi starts singing there is a big grin on John s face. Great song, great performance.

[@hyder1962]

John's face when she unleashes that voice. Happy man!

[@jacquismith3277]

Great performance. John's expression as Brandi starts her first verse says it all! He's happy! ❤❤❤

[@markmunger9978]

Talent. Old and new. Man and woman. Road weary and dewy eyed. She is not Bonnie. She is herself. She moderated her voice to let John take the lead on one of his best songs. Masterful.

[@davidflower9678]

Anyone who thinks Brandi oversings here is crazy. She uses her awesome voice to full effect on her verses, but then completely pulls it in when she's singing with John on the choruses and melds with him beautifully. She's so respectful of him, both personally and musically, and the affection and admiration between them is palpable.

[@Peter-oh3hc]

Yup

[@dapples7985]

You can not sing these verses in a subtle way, in my experience, at home, cleaning...

[@Dawnfrnj]

Brandi can sing, and anyone who complains misses the point of why they were friends. Besides, did those complainers remember this is not a professional recording, or maybe her mic was too loud? I guess people just want to complain instead of appreciate the opportunity to listen.

[@JasonMcFly]

Well, Bonnie Raitt plays the song in E. John here is playing it in his original key of G, a step and a half higher than Bonnie typically sings it. Brandi has to belt it out to hit the high notes. If Bonnie sang the song in G, it would sound just like this.

[@1UTUBEUSERNAME]

The key is high for her. She has to attack the shit out of it to stay in tune. It was awesome af.

[@Brandon.Nichols]

Saw Brandi do this number in Ballard probably 20 years ago from about 20 feet away, almost brought tears to my eyes her voice is so amazingly beautiful -- still remember to this day!

[@slugworth78]

Prine almost misses the first chorus watching her sing. What a voice

[@KiloMintoni-kg4kn]

She's is sweet and sincere. Do not doubt this. She sings what she means and means what she sings.

[@kathymartin6594]

She seems to cover every song I've ever loved, and is awesome at each and everyone of them.

[@Momo-mw4ef]

For those interested, I strongly recommend that you search the KZbin video where Brandi Carlile sings hello in there on the ‘Steve call bear show. And introducing it call bear gets pretty emotional. It is clear that he is well is Brandy had great love and respect for John Prine

[@w001mpb]

Just watched it. Beautiful.

[@SunbearBluesBand]

and when you thought that it could not get any better with Brandi singing a verse solo and the two harmonizing in the chorus ... an awesome guitar solo blows you away.

[@RonTuriello]

He was really great. Classic Strat sound.

[@umpea1]

I love how she holds back when she's singing with Prime Prine 😇

[@chuckhb2714]

So hard to find anything better than this. Keep coming back.......

[@peterandrews9060]

She shows such a well deserved respect for John. Awesome duet.

[@m.a.c.8366]

many respects for Mr. John Prine and families. just thinking we'd like to hear Bonnie & Brandi singing together on this classic song. thanks very much for posting..

[@gd8432]

Been battling through Traumatic Brain Injury for the past 6 months. A bicycle accident that I have no memory of. This song, a most beautiful version of one of my favorite all time songs--Thank you!

[@tnsgrt60]

Gary Dorshimer hope you are doing well and that more great memories have returned to you! Music is a great way to heal!

[@vincentbynumbers]

music is so powerful - i hope now, 2 years later you're doing okay!! such a great song.

[@mick5376]

Gary Dorshimer 11 year TBI survivor here...Prine with Jason Wilbur playing lead with Brandi. Close to perfection.

[@ohlalola]

I was there to see this live.

[@jeannefoster5594]

Lucky you!!

[@dogscratchedoor]

So awesome! This is one of my all time favorite songs and here it is by the legends.

[@darleneswire9419]

A lot of talent on that stage!!

[@hoffy1003]

Powerful song. Always makes me emotional.

[@gissellest333]

RIP John. ❤

[@Fwededude]

We were there and we will so miss him! RIP John.

[@davidcarter2720]

I've come to appreciate John Prine pretty late in life ... given I somehow failed to appreciate him for nearly fifty years until now. 'ts OK, though - and this video helps me catch up a tad more. Thanks.

[@arraymac227]

Brandi Carlile or Laura Hubert, this song needs a belter!

[@stuntmanstu1]

Damn! RIP. MR. JOHN PRINE. Brandi Carlyle. What a voice!

[@agnome1176]

✨😢🪔😭 One of the all time word-weavers~ reticent poet; creator of metaphors that spoke to a generation, Rock Steady John Prine; 🤦‍♂️😣

[@jamesmowenby]

Love them both so much.

[@benbarclay5546]

Wow. Brandi Carlile, taker of no vocal prisoners, singing perfect support backup vocals. So beautiful and respectful. And then...

[@1UTUBEUSERNAME]

yeah, and that guitar solo alone was worth the watch.

[@shirleykelly9971]

Even the biggest stars were in awe of John and I don't know any of them didn't want to sing with him miss you John

[@joannemackenzie2864]

love this

[@michellemullen5542]

Rest in Peace, sweet John Prine

[@HardRockMiner]

God speed Mr. Prine. May your trip to Heaven be as smooth as your playing, and Ms. Carlile's voice.

[@HardRockMiner]

@Randy Bingham - ?? Ok.

[@betsyshepard6730]

She makes sure not to drown him out.

[@justinjones5491]

Thanks John. RIP.

[@enzogiargia8857]

[@amandawoods8323]

She's still a young girl.

[@candygram4435]

[@joecrookston]

Jason!

[@sidewalksurf800]

This is great. Where was this video taken?

[@skippy9659]

Cayamo...an annual cruise they used to do...

[@reramcharan8492]

She's good. But for my money, the definitive version is still Bonnie Koloc.

[@clearfield2009]

xxxooooo

[@lawrence1960]

To

[@smitty7592]

She’s over singing when she’s solo. Geez dial it back.

[@nelsonmeagan5341]

Please can you explain what over singing entails?

[@ryand6150]

Bonnie's version is much better

[@brianmckendrick5062]

Amazing performance from two amazing artists. RIP John

[@jaywarnke9733]

The smile and nod that John gives Brandi when she starts the second verse has me in the feels. RIP John.

[@brendabrown7864]

Absolutely love John Prime and Brandi sings this with so much passion she has absolutely beautiful voice. Thank you for sharing this video and God Bless 🙏🏽♥️🌹♥️

[@folkfollower86]

Two musicians whom I respect a great deal, sharing the stage with a mutual admiration and respect if each other. And slaying. Wow. Just wow.

[@cef-ym3gb]

RIP Mr Prine; thank you for all the years of stories set to music. Have loved your muaic since first seeing you in a bar/restaurant with my parents in old town Chicago. ❤❤❤

[@loniduncan]

Jason Wilbur looking so cute in his suit while John and Brandi are dressed casually. Great job

[@judsonh1949]

Jason Wilbur on electric ... fast becoming a solo star in his own right lately.

[@RonTuriello]

Thanks. I was wondering who he was. That was a great solo. Classic Strat sound.

[@jjjtttggg]

if you want to know how good this performance is, stop the vide at 4:15. JP's face in that moment is just lit up! :)
