Chrissie Hynde - Angel Of The Morning

[@neovixx4707]

Stephanieeee knows all the chords 😂😂

[@monalisasmile6629]

Lol I love how Phoebe says that! :-D

[@mikelheron20]

Except G7 - but it's a hard chord. ☺

[@mattbozone4622]

+Neo Vixx She can even transfer between D and Am!

[@interstategar]

G7 isn't a hard chord once you stretch out your parts of the hand to form it. Its like weight lifting. Slowly you cab strength as you do more lifting. Same thing with any guitar chord. Be patient.

[@mikelheron20]

interstategar I completely disagree. Making an effort is the first step on the road to failure. If at first you don't succeed - give up. If you can't manage G7 first time you try it you never will. Give up and try the ukulele. (I'm kidding.)

[@mycityofsky]

I loved the song instantly when I heard it in Friends. The voice and the melody is so beautiful.

[@mikkelramm5079]

Me too!!!! I have been trying for like ages to find this song !

[@jchan9761]

Juice Newton was better. Just saying.

[@garylyons6859]

Only a small portion of this clip was shown in the actual episode for timing constraints. It would've been better if they played the whole song and left the adverts out. Does anyone agree with me? I bet Chrissie herself was furious for the cut because she sang this beautifully.

[@rachelparadis6786]

on the dvd they do the whole version

[@robynd2266]

rachel paradis indeed, I'm assuming that's how the uploader obtained the footage

[@burns1210]

gary lyons Great idea, get rid of the commercials....😒

[@clairestevenson5192]

gary lyons yes

[@rashmigupta5458]

They show this whole thing in episode

[@tkatnss]

Even though this was shot twenty years back this was one of my favorite moment from friends. Somewhere we feel so sympathetic towards pheobe and the way Rachel looks at the singer. Ah !

[@vincentlongo2386]

T K Narayanan agreed. I love this scene and the way her voice sounds with the sentiment

[@ellenharvischak6550]

It was definitely the most memorable moment of any friends episode to me, mainly because Chrissie rocked it and the Pretenders is my favorite band.

[@davidgoosen1633]

Chrissie hynde's rock and roll royalty you bet Rachel was looking at her!!!

[@donnaburke664]

Chrissy has the greatest female rock singer voice ever!

[@RandyFricke]

No argument Donna.

[@robynd2266]

Baron Von Grijffenbourg personally I despise Courtney but I agree with the rest

Chrissie was tough as nails, which is why she broke your heart when she showed her vulnerability. What a beautiful voice and song

[@ABHINAVPAL02]

Which episode

[@monalisasmile6629]

To all those who think she was referring to this song, who she claimed was written about the first man she ever loved. Y'all are obviously not true Friends fans because if you were, you would know the song she was referring to was "Zachary". They just jumped straight to this scene, where she sings this song. Hence, the confusion.

[@karenestradaraya483]

I was just thinking the same! :3

[@monalisasmile6629]

Karen /o/ :)

[@cryhavoc124]

Probably the best rendition of this piece that I've ever heard.

[@stevensaunders9080]

Try the Billie Davis version.

[@kennethlalla1779]

Try the much better version by Juice Newton

[@Brian-jv8iy]

Merylee Rush has a really emotional one, didn’t like it the first time but the second I fell in love. Fits the lyrics, the only one that does it imo. Others just sound nie, like the original from Evie Sands or the popular Newton one.

[@augaeljo]

@@kennethlalla1779 Right there with you.

[@mikecorbett8760]

Billie

[@PsycheAnimus]

Such an amazing voice. Her version of this song always gets to me.

[@lebarosky]

She's so talented and at this point she is utterly confident of her powers. She reminds me of Johnny Cash in that way. This is a good example: everything she does is seemingly simple and straightforward, yet try to imitate it!

[@dennispicone6801]

Absolutely. She was one of our icons, so that is a real slap in the face of genuine talent. Musicians like her, don't just grow on trees.😢😮😊

[@mayankjoshi379]

this is indeed the best version

[@davestratton460]

Check out Juice Newton and see if you feel the same way.

[@psifla99]

This is a beautifully shot and composed scene - it’s about character conflict and personal pain in addition to momentary bliss. The latter in that it’s near impossible not to surrender to the presence and musicality of Chrissie Hynde, the former two in what we unavoidably feel for the Friend we know and love, the struggling Phoebe, and also the other Phoebes among us. Delighted that in the episode itself Phoebe and Stephanie bond and even sing Smelly Cat together.

[@saradevi8632]

wow that is what you call an artist paying tribute to another artist wow how amazing both chrissy and bonnie are wow...the best moment of friends

[@TheSpyIII]

This version is unreal. Wish there was a full version. Just realised this is quite a full version!!

[@mr_dillus]

there is The Pretenders version

[@shivrajkoman]

Sooo awesome voice...Best of all the versions!!!

[@johnp234]

Not since Patsy Cline died have I heard heartache so clearly articulated in song. Chrissie is a nightingale, and one of the finest female singer songwriters to ever pick up a guitar, IMHO. When you can hear one note and know who it is singing it, that's talent, my friends. Tough but vulnerable, smart and beautiful. She's got it all.

[@sddream8304]

i watched whole friends series like dozens of times and listened to the original song everytime i watched this episode but this is the first time i watched full-scene... and somehow it touches me greately.. truely a great performance

[@emmajean8631]

Looking for a full version of this for ages... thanks so much for posting

[@dianaparker3469]

Crissy is an amazing talent. Happy to have seen her performance live a couple of times, with The Pretenders, my first live concert.

[@DeniseAWells]

just heard this on 'Friends' show, have never watched the show series before n just recently got 'hooked', nice to hear some good music on the show.

[@Wclmkay]

top class from a pure genius !! Thanks Chrissie

[@mirosuni]

I am soon to be 65 -- a fav when I was all of 8!!! It yep did exist back then!! :) Chrissy does a great job -- this song never can ya get out of your mind once you have heard it!!!

[@relevant_nebula]

In case people don't realize this is the lead singer of The Pretenders who covered the original of this song in the 90s! Hence if you listen to The Pretenders it is her singing the lead vocal and sounds very similar.

[@sudeshnabasak3176]

yes! i found this version the best too, after hearing ALL of them..Her voice has the perfect pathos for the song...

[@robertm7889]

By very very far the best version of this song CHILLS man CHILLS

her voice is so beautiful.

Omg I never knew this existed 😮❤ I was finding this song ever since after I heard that small clip in this episode it's so beautiful 😍

There'll be no strings to bind your hands Not if my love can bind your heart And there's no need to take a stand For it was I who chose to start I see no reason to take me home I'm old enough to face the dawn Just call me angel of the morning, angel Just touch my cheek before you leave me, oh baby Just call me angel of the morning, angel Then slowly turn away from me Maybe the sun's light will be dim So it won't matter anyhow If morning's echo says we've sinned Well, it was what I wanted now And if we're the victims of the night I won't be blinded by the light Just call me angel of the morning, angel Just touch my cheek before you leave me, oh baby Just call me angel of the morning, angel Then slowly turn away I won't beg you to stay with me Through the tears of the day Of the years, oh baby baby, baby baby Just call me angel of the morning, angel Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby Just call me angel of the morning, angel Just touch my cheek before you leave me Oh baby, baby, oh baby

[@vincentlongo2386]

Her voice is mesmerizing.

[@MrGregOtis]

I was searching for Merrilee Rush and came across this. I did not watch Friends, so this is a new one for me. Chrissie Hynde is a "local" girl who done good for herself and that is why I clicked on it to watch. What popped up next was her studio version of this song. Now I have to find the CD it is on!

[@kaloncar]

Chrissy Hynde is legendary.

[@raymond1976]

[@9Nitengale]

I love Chrissy Hynde, she has a hauntingly beautiful voice. This song was written by Chip Taylor, and Marilee Rush did the most famous version of it.

[@seamusfinnigan2000]

I swear I was holding my tears when I watched the show.. Stephanie (Chrissie) was a new professional singers in Central Perk Coffee House. She was replacing Phoebe who used to be singing in the cafe. Rachel as Phoebe best friend, who was a waitress in the cafe, tried her best to make her boss keep Phoebe. The moment Rachel stared Phoebe outside the window, who was counting the money she earned from street-performing, was actually break my heart.

[@trexinvert]

Chrissie looks and sings amazing. She's about 45 years old in this video. She was born in 1951, and interestingly enough she skipped all the hippie 60's and 70's music style. She was there at Kent State University during the infamous killing of a student by the national guard. She also left the country and spent time in europe to return with her unique style of music. Long live the Pretenders.

Unfortunately I can't find this exact version to download on iTunes. There is this song under Friends' playlist, but that version has too many drums and extra singers and such. Chrissie Hynde's solo version just on the show is amazing and I would love to get that somewhere.

I dunno about Sheryl Crow, but 2000 miles as performed by Chrissy is one of my favorite songs, and I wonder if anyone else can give it the same feeling.

[@CaramiaPadgett]

@augiboo Actually if you watch the whole episode, after she claims to have written a song, she starts to sing a different song! Then when they fade back into Central Perk, she starts singing Angel of the Morning. Hence its still a cover song! lol
