My mom requested this song be played at her funeral. I'm following her tradition and it will be played at mine.

I played this song at the end of my Mom’s funeral. I believe she did fly away and certainly would approve. Great version. Artists are often not appreciated. Thank you for such a wonderful version of an amazing hymn.

Gillian has a special "cry" in her voice. Nobody sings this song better than she does.

Brilliant that David went to double time strumming from his second solo on to the end, making for the closing verse feeling like you were flying away. Just awesome.

That controlled "voice crack" (for lack of the real term to describe it) is incredible. Gillian does it here and there . . . holy crap. Whenever she says "away" during the chorus, like at 1:18. G.o.r.g.e.o.u.s.

I don't think I've ever witnessed an acoustic guitarist as connected to his instrument; it's literally like an extension of his body. And, what amazing chops and drive! That's a cheap old Epifone he found under a pile of sawdust.

Cool song. A great thing about the web: I can be looking for whatever and stumble upon something that I've never heard (or heard of) before and it opens up a complete new world for me. I got turned on to Diana Krall's music because I searched for Elvis Costello. That in turn led me to a video with the two of them doing Crazy with Willie Nelson, which led me to the Highwaymen done by Willie, Merle and Kris. And on and on it goes. It's a great time to be alive. These ARE the good old days!
