Here we are in 2023 still rocking to this video! Amy has that smile and Emily is rocking the banjo. I remember those days and now at 63 - oh god. It makes me feel so alive and free. And this song is as important now as it was 15 years ago. !

[@chriscox7039]

Here's what I say about Amy and Emily. And no I don't see eye to eye with them on some things. But that's life. They are some of the greatest lyricists of all time. And their singing and harmony is like magic. These two were meant to sing together. Love their music and I always have. Especially the earlier stuff.

[@purplew93]

They said we're checkin' for illegal immigrants, lemme check your car. I said, funny I think we were on the same boat in 1694. LOVE THESE WOMEN!!!!!!! seriously smart, kick ass music

[@toriallnutt]

such a smashing voice ! i wish more women singers on the radio these days had such a nice voice...they all seem exactly the same nowdays, this women is so unique :)

[@mrs.awesome5371]

One of the best song writing teams ever!

[@miscellaneousmoon327]

One of the greatest songs ever, loved it from the first time I heard it. I keep finding myself coming back and watching this video, gives me an indescribable feeling of, well, I can't describe it, hehe. I wish that I was there when this was being played, I would probably have passed out from the sheer awesomeness though.

[@JB-gm5hz]

A great live version--many thanks for posting!

Shame on You Indigo Girls Album: Shaming of the Sun My friends they wash the windows And they shine in the sun They tell me wake up early in the morning sometime See what a beautiful job we've done I say let's put on some tunes Sing a long and dolittle all day Go down to the riverside take off our shoes And wash these sins away And the river said La la la it said shame on you And the river said La la la it said shame on you I go down to Chicano City park Cause it makes me feel so fine And when the weeds go down you can see up close In the dead of the winter time But when the summer comes everything's in bloom And you wouldn't know it's there And the white folks like to pretend it's not But their music's in the air And you can hear 'em singing La la la they said shame on you You can feel em dancing La la la they said shame on you My friend Tanner she says you know Me and Jesus we're of the same heart The only thing that keeps us distant Is that I keep fuckin' up I said come on down to Chicano City park And wash your blues away The beautiful ladies walk right by You know i never know what to say And they'll be singing Ooo la la la la la la la la shame on you And they'll be dancing Ooo la la la they said shame on you Shame on you Let's go road block trippin in the middle of the night Up in Gainesville town There'll be blue lights flashin down the long dirt road When they ask me to step out They say we've been looking for illegal immigrants Can we check your car? I say you know it's funny I think we were on the same boat back in 1694 Composer, Lyricist: A. Ray ℗ 1997 Sony Music Entertainment Inc.

[@ricstewart]

@sandrapick32 The Indigo Girls were at the Georgia state capitol yesterday rallying against Arizona copycat legislation yesterday... and they played this song! They rocked.

[@sandrakeeley8960]

I want to be Amy's guitar!

[@chriscox7039]

I got Amy;s autograph at the 1st Lilith tour. I was sitting beside her watching a band. I just asked if she would sign my notebook. :)

[@Analyticalinadream]

This song makes my life happier :)

[@David-q1k4k]

Love when Amy Ray does that "growl ". She is so badass !!

[@David-q1k4k]

This takes me right back to Lilith in '97 ... great times !

[@katrinakayser]

ARIZONA!!! Listen to the Indigo Girls... Funny I think we were on the same boat back in 1694.... Shame on you.

[@whofanextraordinaire2672]

No wonder I was loving this so much. Jerry's playing!

[@marciasandersmusic1234]

saw em here in arvada colorado at the arts center! loved em, would pay to hear them any day!

[@ulysees1117]

Just heard these two play this song in Sacramento tonight. The crowd went NUTS and I'm sure I wasn't the only one with tears rolling down my face. With the fuckhead in office separating and imprisoning families.... it was cathartic and healing to hear this song

[@mjd111]

👏👏👏👏🤙 thankfully not now 🏳️‍🌈🤙

[@johnnecron666]

She's just a dreamchild of desire.

[@VictorEMusique]

every one should know the drummer with them is Jerry Marrotta - used to play in Peter Gabriel's band during the Gabriel Plays Live era - saw Lilith Fair and as we were walking out he was just hanging out with his wife - I was the only one who knew who he was - even he was surprised I recognized him - fantastic drummer

[@taiiraaven9796]

I think this was the song where I really fell in love with Amy.... She just looks so happy and beautiful.... I wish I had been there...

[@primarybs]

Wow, heavy hitters all around. Jerry Marrotta, and of course, the incompribable Ms. Sara Lee! Emily is beautiful here! Love it.

[@mercyspain]

i love lilith fair

[@mdm92128]

Love Amy....always have, always will! & I'm thinking the hot dancing woman @ 2:45 looks familiar.... :)

[@misterskullhead]

How are people sitting down during this song? I'm watching it on my laptop and I can't keep still.

[@jujub2534]

I never know what to say either!

[@seanetic1]

You are watching the wrong video then, the exit is this way----->

[@emmalouisewical]

@heyspunkbubble1964 I've always loved that smirk, too.

[@Danteniusgirl]

I agree =) they are great!!!

[@blackcallalily6540]

[@shellicurry3163]

[@mymonkeydusty]

[@taiiraaven9796]

[@Tinkizzonfire]

[@rrroguebear]

@kurtandblaine4ever - Sara Lee.

[@amyray63]

@tomajok73 Me, too!

[@HatemasterGungbok]

@they all seem exactly the same nowdays they all use autotuner nowdays

[@certaindeed]

Love the song. Always have. Never agreed with it as the concept of speaking out against attempts to prevent illegal immigration, though. Idealistic, crazy and impractical.

[@sandrakeeley8960]

+eddie telleed I agree with you, eddie. I love everything about the Indigo Girls except their constant support of illegal immigration. Surely, they know themselves, there has to be restrictions.

[@keysersoze4322]

I'm exactly the same as you guys.

[@LilliSatine]

I was at a lilith faire show back in '97. it was a pretty gutsy concept back then. the indigo girls have always been on the cutting edge, though.
