No posing. Just a phenomenal amount of talent. Another great Canadian band proud to say.❤❤❤

[@JungleJoeVN]

I'll never forget seeing The Cowboy Junkies at the Three Rivers Arts Festival in Pittsburgh. It rained. Margo said,; "If you stay, we will play". Well, we stayed and they played and it was like nothing I have heard since.

[@surferbeto]

I'd be happy to have this song played at my funeral. It could make a dead man smile and cry bittersweet tears.

[@jimmyVT]

God damn right brother!

[@gregorylichtenson757]

Me as well Partner

[@gregorylichtenson757]

[@gregorylichtenson757]

U don't Cry when you listen to this Song!!;You ain't human ❤

[@johngoodhue4352]

Michael Timmons is one of the best song writers of our time. His songs touch the deepest part of my soul.

[@rossinicoleman7815]

I met Margo’s voice and the band’s music when I was 19 I’m 53 now and they still touch the same

[@haroldbrown6630]

Yup. 21-55.

[@davidrichards7020]

18 now 57. Her voice is like her looks its get better with age.

[@rickbullock4331]

I love Margot’s voice. The Cowboy Junkies have always been fantastic. Not bad for someone who didn’t want to sing for a living.

[@billyrayvalentine7972]

Truly incredible. Not only silky smooth but it cuts down to the bone.

[@zwitter689]

Just how goddamned good is this woman!

[@dalekidd8431]

Very damn good

[@gregorylichtenson757]

Darn Good..even Better

[@danking935]

She's a gift from god.

[@gregorylichtenson757]

Reminds me of my Mothers final Days..RIP Nancy 🕊💙🕊

[@OrmondOtvos]

Margo's intensity of delivery is shattering. That side shot with her hair blowing gives me chills, as does the timbre of her unique voice.

[@double00spy]

My God ... Margo is so brilliant here. What a voice!

[@johnorr9373]

Oh Margo absolutely beautiful.

[@rickjones3612]

First, huge Cowboy Junkies fan. Ever since I first heard Caution Horses in ‘90. Always loved Those Final Feet, but this live version & the emotion in Margo’s voice as she sings it takes it to a new level. Tremendous band both musically & lyrically.

[@gregorylichtenson757]

The Most Beautiful Song...I cried all the way thru...Oh what a Sweet 1

[@zwitter689]

Margo's singing at 4:23 is the definition of transcendent- geez!

[@gregmcfarlane4208]

im with you, but also the 4 imnutes before and the 1/2 minute after. Total agreement!

[@mauriciorodrigues5867]

Miles from our Home - Best track 👍 thanks for sharing 😊

[@robertsutphen2333]

[@DanoTube1975]

[@bretstephensen8821]

She sends chills up my spine and gives me goosebumps and tears to my eyes! Thank you!!!

[@andrewbloxham5696]

Wow!!! What a song and what a band. Breathtaking

[@ztlbbtn]

Love Margo and this group!

[@AlexandreNMoreira]

One of my favorite Cowboy Junkies song.

[@bruceowen9044]

This is what it sounds like when an angel sings

[@dougmphilly]

seriously, from the first time i heard them on wxpn til today, no band has captured so much emotion, so much gut wrenching how did i f*** up my life and at the same time leave you feeling uplifted at the end.

[@billysdad51995]

Earth shattering, that is her voice. God love her.

[@DanoTube1975]

I've been hooked on the Cowboy Junkies for years. What a GREAT band. I often put them up on the BOSE wireless speakers and play my acoustic all night long next to them. LOL.... Plus I always had a crush on Margot :-)

[@sethharrison2557]

Headphones on, Precision slung from my shoulder, amp powered up, hit play and disappear..............Love those Cowboy Junkie moods.

[@gregmcfarlane4208]

you and the rest of any red blooded male! im with ya!

[@surferbeto]

We've all always had crush on Margot, Daniel. She is a gift to the world. ;-)

[@henkvandertempel8847]

Great band and a fantastic singer!!!

[@andrerobidoux9657]

simply adore this voice

[@danb7709]

So enjoyable. I love this band.

[@fpopee]

When she looks off into nowhere after the final verse....drums come in....then during the last chorus she's gritting her teeth......she's completely immersed in her performance. It's almost like the song is singing HER......taking her somewhere. Watching her sing this....she almost isn't human for 5 minutes. Skin crawling brilliant

[@brianray7762]

Agree she is living it

[@barnacles62]

A true singer, Mike Stipe of REM was like that, the song controlled him as much as he did it....

[@rapbuck3]

Damn right

[@davidsmithee9087]

...geezus - what a voice...what a story...this is transcending...

[@robertpaquette77]

Love of the truth = fountain of youth... do not tell lies... do not do what you hate...

[@cynthiamadrid1430]

LOVE MARGO... When the Cowboys Junkies came out, I found a mirror. So, I bought their Cassett. As Life throws us tragedies, their music has never been more important to me. My husband, 5 years tommorrow fell during Work and broke his neck, resulting in BOB becoming a quadrapelegic C4... EVERYTHING Changes,peace.

[@michaelreed9346]

I would be willing to crawl those Final Feet to hear the Cowboy Junkies perform.

[@shadeburst]

In spite of the electric ukelele this is very listenable. Margot Timmins has the rare talent of producing a singing voice at low volume.

[@jonwatson6918]

Ukulele? It's a mandolin. And, it appears he's taken half the strings off and, I assume, run it through a 12 string FX box. That's a lot of attention to detail.

[@Genjo_N_Mojave]

I saw the incredible Cowboy Junkies during the (Rodney King) Los Angeles riots of 1992. It was a mesmerizing, almost phantasmagoric show. They opened for John Prine at the Pantages Theater on Hollywood Boulevard on May 8th of 1992. Although history states the LA riots ended a few days earlier, only the arsonist and looting stopped at that time. Hollywood Boulevard was blocked off by the National Guard checkpoints for 3 weeks in May. The freeway exits from Hollywood, South beyond South Central LA, were blocked off. It was eerie approaching the Pantages theater, and seeing an empty Hollywood Boulevard with fully armed guardsman with automatic weapons. The Pantages has approximately 2,700 seats, but only 500 were filled. We were able to move in close to the stage. I've never been to a concert with such a mesmerizing ambience, out of the 200+ shows I've been to.

[@annemorganti9444]

Love it 🎶🌈

Ooooh this is nice. Very nice!

[@sportsterray66]

Awesome version of this song, I like it better than the studio version on the CD!

[@Ahazeuris]

+sportsterray66 I agree. This is a good tune on Miles From Our Home, but it's simply brilliant here.

[@sportsterray66]

I'm going to see them Nov.20th here in Chicago at The Old Town School of Folk Music, bought two of the last three tickets available for that night!

[@Ahazeuris]

Lucky lucky. Enjoy the show! They haven't been through Dallas in a while. Hoping I get the chance.

[@sportsterray66]

I hope you do too, after three decades, they might decide to quit touring soon, glad I get to see them finally!

[@vincecaporale3544]

[@dianerobinson5336]

Lyrics: Place my body on the funeral pyre, Cut it loose to float downstream Leave it frozen on a mountain top, Suspend it high to be picked clean You said never to grow old, But you forgot to tell me how You said never to grow old And then you sank your teeth into those final feet Last night I dreamt of owls at my window I knew that time was winding down Turned to tell you of my premonition, Changed my mind and lay back down You said never to grow old, But you forgot to tell me how You said never to grow old And then you sank your teeth into those final feet No sense wasting the time you got, You got to walk down every road No sense pretending that you're what you're not, When you got to shoulder every load You said never to grow old, But you forgot to tell me how You said never to grow old And then you sank your teeth into those final feet You said never to grow old, But you forgot to tell me how You said never to grow old

[@user-wj2xk7nn3c]

Не в Кантри я но вы Боги.

[@DieterStenzel]

Great

[@trebledog]

Is that really true about when the owl calls your name. Old northern First people saying, read a book by that title once. I guess when it happens, only you alone will know.

[@chriscalaba3140]

💚💙💚💙

[@surferbeto]

How in the world does he make his mandolin sound like a Les Paul? Maybe an octave lowering pedal?

[@davidknox1758]

Jeff Bird is a major talent!! Check out some of his solo stuff! Truly amazing!!

[@jerrykibbe6363]

Heard them last nite & couldn’t figure where that sound of his was coming from😂

[@surferbeto]

OK, I watched closely and I've got it: His mandolin only has 4 strings. They look thicker than usual mandolin strings (maybe in the range of guitar strings?). And the "mandolin" appears to be tuned like the top 4 strings of a guitar. So it is effectively an electric concert ukulele with a low note on the bottom string. A hot pickup and an overdrive pedal or two - maybe some judicious EQ tweaking and he's got the Les Paul sound. Brilliant! Swap this instrument out for a real mandolin on the songs that call for it. Rock on Jeff Bird!

[@JohnHoey-iz4ov]

Good music veryno noncence skull Henley deros

[@ronnieirvine2552]

Omg you are so beautiful sweet love you.❤😊 ❤

[@robertdevereaux7621]

If she feels cheap , I wonder where that puts me?

[@pocobuen]

i'm only young - can someone explain "those final teeth"?

[@pocobuen]

sorry "final feet"

[@pocobuen]

it's ok, I'm old enough to understand now - Jesus

[@PeteD1884]

It is a little unclear, but eventually I got it. Pretty heavy stuff stated in a few words. People sometimes hang on too long - they sink their teeth into those final feet.

[@michael4250]

Singer becomes tiresome...but the band never flags!

[@kevinpedigo1925]

Awsome
