Indigo Girls - "Closer to Fine" (Live w/ The University of Colorado Symphony Orchestra)

[@kandisnz]

I was front row at this concert. Once in a lifetime!!!

[@ALinn-vr3nl]

Wow, you were so fortunate!

[@erinhooks5284]

My 6 year old daughter and I are so jealous! I grew up listening to them with my aunt, and now I've taught my daughter to love them! So we dance around to this song a lot

[@michaelsix9684]

lucky you, what a moment

[@erinmalone2669]

It must have been like not just just hearing the music, but feeling it with your whole body ❤

[@ericfreund3496]

I’m so jealous.

[@marybrewer2203]

I'm 60. A few years ago, a friend turned me on to your music to help me begin to recover from a really bad abusive relationship. Thanks. I am well and happy now.

[@michaelaldan6969]

all my love to you Mary...we are closer to fine....although it takes a little while....i am searching too..stay strong my lady

[@jahbay]

And now it's your time to shine....GO FOR IT!!!!

[@erinmalone2669]

This song with the orchestra actually brought me to tears! ❤❤❤❤

[@philsevetson222]

Same. Listening to this video for... about the fifth or sixth time. Feeling the tears. Every time.

[@cotaitcirce9]

WOW! what a great arrangement AND singing along with Symphony!! A little Aaron Copeland meets folk music. These two are so ORIgINAL! They will always be epic

[@AlexanderCrump]

The world could use a few more ladies like you right now.

[@JPageRocks]

I saw them 20 years ago at Wolf Trap in Virginia. One of the best concerts I've ever attended. Everyone was on their feet most of the show.

[@michaelsix9684]

this act just moves you with their music, your body has to get up to absorb it

[@LittleLulubee]

Wow, so touching to see the hearts of all those people sharing that magical moment, and coming together as one ❤❤❤ Just BEAUTIFUL 🥲❤🥰💫💫💫

[@michaelsix9684]

watched this over a dozen times, very uplifting, wish it was shown on PBS, would be great

[@shermantank6564]

Always brings a smile to my face when I see them sing this sing whether live or on video. One of the greatest songs ever written for touching one’s soul and mental health.

[@terrymott2816]

Happy tears watching, listening, and singing along.. your song has been a life line. Thank you.💗🙏

[@ALinn-vr3nl]

Same here. Happy tears and all you wrote.

[@alanashaw467]

What a thrill to have an orchestra playing your music with you!! Sounds fabulous - Congratulations!

[@mirosuni]

Their incredible talent coupled with their amazing humility brings tears.!! Wow they are incredible.

[@bricago2302]

Well said. ❤❤❤

[@louenkleinsmidt]

I've never forgotten this song since it came out. So many things happening in my life at that time, so many things in my country, etc. Then, some years later, this young student shared the tape with my wife and asked her if she'd heard of Indigo Girls. She hadn't but i sure did 😉. I sang the chorus to her and then she recognized it. That must've been 10 or 15 years back. It's 2022 and i still love it.

[@jahbay]

The conductor did an excellent job!!!

[@kindfriend78]

After listening to Indigo Girls for 24 years, they still manage to inspire me to try and be the best that I can be 😍💕 xx Sounding wonderful!

[@sandradelano8663]

If I feel down, this is one of my go to songs. Beautiful.

[@carolynjackson1231]

Such incredible memories of the '90's beautiful voices and thoughtful verse, incredible singing.

Exactly Exactly Exactly...adding the orchestra to this amazing amazing amazing song after all of these years just adds to its greatness as was then as is now

[@keitho8131]

Just purchased the digital download of the show.

[@katkatsanis]

So good! Thanks so much for this joy-filled offering! 👏👏👏

[@GoodStuffForeverMore]

My God what a legacy these two women have created💖

[@Mo-dg8xi]

Well done! Came to youtube to find a live version of Closer to fine and found this gem. Loved it!!

[@ukstd1]

WOW what a performance - and what a song! I've loved it for nearly 30 years. How can a simple D,C&G arrangement be used to create something so amazing and emotive? Like Paul Simon said - the great songs are simple and they never age.

[@jodicarter3085]

I listen to this over and over! So uplifting!

[@karenmwebster]

This is a joy to watch.

[@morgantucker3556]

The way these wonderful women make a song is so real, so amazing, so passionate, and so very real. Wish I could play some music with them for just a day.

[@muttlee1213]

Would never believe this song could/would be finer and yet... WOW!

[@Marbleslite]

Fantastic!!!

[@nineteen67]

I have just listened to the album. Superb orchestration taking each song to new emotional heights. Feeling grateful the Indigo Girls are in the world.

[@alexanderhay7358]

wow, just wow

[@ekaterini2957]

My son plays cello. I have to have him listen to this...

[@goat2558]

How cool is this? I had gone outside for a few minutes and this had popped up I could hear it playing in the background. When I came into the room I was pleasantly surprised to hear and see Closer To Fine being played with a symphony orchestra. The song was about half way over I listened to about 40 seconds of it then started it over and then I started it over again and then again. 300 years from now will these be viewed as the classics like Bach and Mozart are today. Personally I find the Indigo Girls, along with a few others, to be far superior to the old masters. Someone was lamenting the poor quality of music in these times but great music is still being put out you just have to wade through a lot of crap to find it.

[@CincinnatiRon]

One of the best songs ever

[@lyss1355]

Epic thank you

[@MrDoc-xi4jz]

I have following these girls since the very beginning and they are so great and amazing

[@danieldubek6155]

Absolutely brilliant!! Have loved The Girls since the beginning and to hear them with an orchestra is just mind blowing!!!

[@3Catfood]

So beautiful! You ladies look like you were just soaring above the music!

[@marycatherine5439]

Time moves on...the Indigio Girls continue to create their music through their words as a poet only to deliver the songs to you. What you hear, you know and what you feel is apart of the Indigo Girls Music....yes it is a rapture to enlighten others.

[@kemmayr]

Just downloaded the cd today,love this video aswell,Closer To Fine,its a classic,Indigo Girls I love them .

[@pennyroberts6655]

OMG this is so gorgeous!

[@catherinequintiliani5404]

Got my tickets for Chattanooga. Boom.

[@pmangum6879]

So sorry that Emily is losing her voice . Have loved them forever,

[@meganlongo7525]

I have tickets to see them summer 2022 with an orchestra. I do fear Emily is losing her voice, the last few concerts I’ve seen made me think that. That’s so terrible but honestly I still have all the love and it won’t stop me

[@pmangum6879]

@@meganlongo7525 Have a great time!

[@shandyellis-brown8091]

From Tucker near them, college wouldnt be that same without them

[@indigogirll5354]

😘😘😘

[@billobrien2599]

As if that song couldn't sound any better...

[@richardwhiteley1688]

It was a great little song that meant so much - ruined by turning it into an anthem .

[@TheJamesRedwood]

White people can do soul music.

[@seventeenraccoonsinatrenchcoat]

man the orchestra dragging

[@gheller2261]

I guess I'm in the minority. I think this song works best through minimalism. Two guitars and a third stringed instrument. To me the orchestra removes the purity and overcomes the lyrics.

[@misterprofessor3511]

The orchestra ruined the song by playing over the chorus.

[@chadjohnson-authormusician8072]

You're entitled to your opinion, but that's all it is. I enjoyed it. The original is always there if you want to hear it. This is another take, and many people, myself included, really enjoyed it.

[@anotherlittlepieceofmyart]

What? It was fabulous. Look at the joy on Amy's face when the full orchestra kicked in. That's got to be exhilarating.
