Jackson Browne HERE COMES THOSE TEARS AGAIN

Here come those tears again
Just when I was getting over you
Just when I was going to make it through
Another night without missing you
Thinking I might just be strong enough after all
When I hear your footsteps echoing in the hall
Baby here we stand again
Like weve been so many times before
Even though you looked so sure
As I was watching you walking out my door
But you always walk back in like you did today
Acting like you never even went away
Well I dont know if I can
Open up and let you in baby
Here come those tears
Here come those tears again
I can hear you telling me
How you needed to be free
And you had some things to work out alone
Now youre standing here telling me
How you have grown
Here come those tears again
Now youll tell me how to hold them in
Here come those tears
Here come those tears again
Some other time baby
When Im strong and feeling fine maybe
When I can look at you without crying
You might look like a friend of mine
But I dont know if I can
Open up enough to let you in
Here come those tears
Here come those tears again
Just walk away
Im going back inside and turning out those light
And Ill be in the dark but youll be out of sight

The band and Jackson were in peak form during this era. Rosemary and David Lindley were at their best. What a phenomenal performance and era of music.

[@robertcudlipp3426]

Think all of us who were early Jackson, Linda, Bonnie fans were a little sharper in that time frame, however Jackson is still in fine form.

[@stargazer6753]

@@robertcudlipp3426 Right on. He is doing it!

[@user-gv5jq7uz3m]

Yes!❤❤❤

[@foreignfilmfan711]

This is my favorite Jackson song. Rosemary was superb, showing us how great backup singers can elevate good songs to greatness! She was among the best in the business. 😍

[@stargazer6753]

Yes , indeed.

[@lepantoslim7058]

I can’t get enough of this song cause Rosemary Butler is amazing

[@sonjahanneman213]

The perfect trifecta. Jackson, David and Rosemary.

[@stargazer6753]

Absolutely !! So perfect.

[@mikedineen7857]

Rosemary just slays me.

[@janperson8697]

I started following him when I was 14 at a club in Orange,"The Paradox" loved him then, love him now. He's evolved beautifully. Along with Tim Buckley & the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Good times. The magic was happening. I'm 70 now🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@KubiqFeet]

My god... Rosemary absolutely kills it... wow such a great talent. All of this was before my time, 10 years before I was born but this is all beautiful, Rosemary's voice in unreal.

[@lynfendleyfoster]

My favorite voice, from my teenhood years in the 70s all the way to today. No one...no one...compares to Jackson Browne. An inspiring lyricist, incredible musician and smooth as glass singer. I love him.

[@SharMess]

Me too!!! And beautiful too ;^)

[@lkg1157]

Rosemary Butler ...outstanding! She was every bit as good as Linda. I love Rosemary’s voice!

[@Mr242723]

She is magnificent! Around 1996 I went to Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater Florida to see JB. There were two elderly ladies, surely in their eighties, sitting right in front of me. My curiosity got the better of me and I spoke with them. They were Rosemary Butler's aunts who had come to see her perform. So cool!

[@GM-vf7px]

Wow blindsided by this triad of Superior Talent!!!!!Such a great tune about Love that brings you to tears of Happiness if you're Lucky !!!!!!or tears of sorrow if you lost someone and they come back into your life!!!!!!

[@saffronwetter7944]

'I've been a fan of Jackson Brownes music every sense he began his singing Career. 'I've gone to many of his concerts. And still go if he comes too Charlotte NC. Love 💘 Jackson Browne. His music is hard to beat!!

[@denismguitar1552]

Rosemary always gives me smiles and chills!

[@stargazer6753]

What a great song! Written by Jackson and the mother ( Nancy Farnsworth) of his wife who later committed suicide with an overdose of barbiturates. Almost sounds like a soap opera , but this song was the inspiration of Nancy Farnsworth before all the bad things happened. She brought it to Jackson for collaboration and the lyrics that he added made it a great song, such as “I’ll be in the dark, but you’ll be out of sight.” Add on Rosemary Butler and David Lindley and there you have it : a perfect song.

[@johnstark4500]

Born 1963. Listening to this on vinyl, or tape or cd was a heartfelt experience. However given the opportunity to see this performance triple my love of this man's music.

[@intowngirl102]

Absolutely. I saw him many times in concert and he was fabulous with his fabulous band... Great lyrics, Beautiful music. Listening to him now brings back so many many great memories!!!!!

[@andrewnottensteiner]

Love Him He's such a Musical genius!!!!

[@stargazer6753]

I just love how Jackson used to always wear a classic white shirt for performances. Especially with a black background .

[@peridot321]

I've really miss Rosemary Butler at Jackson's concerts the last couple decades....she was by far the BEST backup vocalist ever! Would love a reunion concert with all the old band!

[@pabloperez4063]

When she takes lead vocals in STAY... it is memorable!!

[@4theconnector]

Your Reunion -- Posted 06/27/21 - kzbin.info/www/bejne/larMeXSXmd-Dack

[@kathyrebuck3131]

As well as David Lindley

[@jasonfishmd]

I agree. That siren took his songs to a higher plane.

[@ginogina4589]

She was amazing. Love her.

[@liisak9964]

After all these years, JB you still #1 in my book!! For those of you missed out on 70's ..... :((

[@4FabBEATLES]

its so rare to see JB not playing an instrument, it makes you realize just how handsome he is and how great of a singer he is when hes not turned away at the piano

[@hilltopfamily]

yep, first time I've seen him without an instrument, too!

[@edhalfen7380]

If you don't get chills, you must not be alive. A rare one with David Lindley playing a traditional electric rather than steels or other exotics...Rosemary Butler a perfect combo with Jackson both on harmonies and taking lead sections...WHEW!

[@sheercerebralpower]

I listen to Jackson every week since 35 years.....

[@cryptobradley2006]

Rosemary makes this song a heart pounding love affair !!!

[@skipper0655]

Oh.. Rose.. missing your voice on this your in particular!!!! Xo b

[@candylineback5324]

Greatest artist of all time. I never get tired of hearing him!

[@whoknew62]

Dang, 30 years. I hadn't played or listened to J Brown in ages. All his songs sound better then they ever did. This guy should go down as one of the best . I just have this odd feeling he has been underrated? ummm, well I cant think of a word for it. He has to be one of the best songwriters of all times. And a great musician.

[@bobbarringer4746]

Yes he is the man

[@carolineheincz6594]

Right on

[@carolineheincz6594]

Right 👍 on

[@jkp17]

Rock and roll Hall of famer, and he has touched so many, not much more to do. Love this guy

[@lepantoslim7058]

I love Birtha and It’s like Jackson Browne’s songs are perfect for her voice

[@benjordon80]

Take a good listen kiddies.. this is what real music is supposed to sound like.

[@veteranpatriot4474]

Wow Ben, Somebody on The internet that actually knows what they are talking about when it comes to Music. I hope you are still Alive, Kicking and Being Blessed by God on a Daily Basis. That goes for you and your Whole Family.

[@rlms56]

She is my favorite back up singer EVER! I just watched an old video of Bonny Raitt performing "Runaway" and Rosemary Butler was her back up vocalist.

[@jamesbakelaar32]

Loved him since 1972 ish! Still rockin the world!

[@sheercerebralpower]

I love Jackson Browne’s music so much......

[@kennedykiser557]

It's my very favorite by the man. And then there is Rosemary Butler... WOW!!! Huge fan of them both.

[@mkimmick61]

He sounds just as good live as he does in studio, a sign of true talent. Unlike today's artists who use tricks to achieve their sound.

[@Nazman06]

Rosemary plays a great bass guitar as well. She rocked in Birtha

[@billyevans1509]

I first began to here Jackson Browne in 1976, Hippie generation. Then this Miss everything arrived at my house and waited 8 hours for me to come home.After two months I decided to pop the question so I bought the JB album she and I loved. On Valentine's Day if 1977 I gave her this album. She suggested that we open ours together at which point she gave me a beautiful package that looked like an album. We kissed softly. Then with the anticipation of love making, we both opened our presents, and immediately fell into each others arms knowing that we were more than compatible: two Jackson Browns LPs entitled "the Pretender" with "Here Comes Those Tears Again." We were married in Memphis the weekend after Elvis's funeral by the same C W Bradly that gave the eulogy for Elvis. I buried my wife Patsy on June 27, 2017 and played our song all day. :) Thanks Jackson. I'm only one, but I have cried again and again.

[@UncleDansVintageVinyl]

I'm sorry for your loss.

[@billyevans1509]

Thanks you Daniel. I hope you are healthy, and have many peaceful days ahead!

[@SteveEcksteinDouglasDrive]

WE WERE MARRIED "2" DAYS PRIOR TO ELVIS PRESLEY'S UNTIMELY, TRAGIC PASSING. IN BERMUDA, AT BREAKFAST, AT "THE REEFS", LEARNED ABOUT ELVIS,WHO WAS TO PERFORM AT THE NASSAU COLISEUM, UNIONDALE, LONG ISLAND THAT DAY, I THINK. DOWN THE BLOCK FROM MY ALMA MATER, HOFSTRA U.. & MINUTES FROM MY CHILDHOOD HOME,EAST MEADOW, I'D PASS THE COLISEUM COUNTLESS TIMES, REMEMBERING THOSE EVENTS. SORRY ABOUT YOUR WIFE. SHE MUST HAVE BEEN AN ANGEL,

[@grandmasmurf2915]

This song is one reason i thank God for older sisters!!!

[@robertlashier6272]

Joined the navy when that song came out. Brings back great memories.

[@dianestreb3544]

Craig Doerge on the piano... excellent❣️

[@mikkoputtonen4849]

This song was my therapist... Eveytime I palyed this song/or the whole album, looking out of my window my mom used to say "Dr. Jackson will do..." The whole album (The Pretender) is the most important masterpiece for me! August.1. this year (my birthday) I went out with my friends(the bald head´s rally) and you can imagine the feeling when she came up to me out of nowhere, after 20 years... I did not turn out out the light- and she is still at sight -right now!!!

[@69chacka]

Greatv backup singers and harmony at the end I get chills!!chacka69 Bless all 4 2012!!!!

[@ut1004bp]

My favorite of all Jackson Browne songs, just great.

[@bobbychadwick4070]

Yes there is a BIG GAP between being a Garage band and reaching "STARDOM". Everyone on that stage has tarried and found that level of Perfection that got them there. Brenda , I agree with you 100%. Even the back up musicians and singers have got to be at their best. It takes EVERYONE , even the Roadies working as 1 big family to stay on the road for years and have the success that Jackson Browne had. Great Lyrics. Great singers and Musicians.

[@epirogue4978]

Sometimes words fail to describe what I feel hearing this song after all those years, not that I didn't hear it in between but this registration of this concert fills me with renewed love and warmth, why did I lose that somewhere along the way? Rosemary Butler steals the show here with her orange afro. And she too has faced the inevitable storms of the fierce tides of times. It's how it is. Nothing lasts forever and at a point only yesterday seems to shine. Tears fill my eyes recognizing the frickle flow of time. Men aren't supposed to cry, whoever said that? When I will not be there anymore and my daugthers'll carry my seeds I guess it goes as far as that.

[@Jbrownefan]

Rosemary Butler can fucking SING!

[@stephaniedorris2130]

You are damn straight she makes this song!'

[@terencewinters2154]

Heartbreakers of a talented idol .

[@YuEcake]

Jackson Browne ROCK! Touch your heart and soul!

[@doubtingthomas51]

So right. So right. The Pretender album should be "with Rosemary Butler sitting in". It's the best sustained back up singer effort I've ever heard. So enthralling.

[@rubycarson]

JB was just gorgeous!

[@raymondkomorowski1832]

Rosemary Butler! Wow! Check out Rosemary's Journey video later in this mux! What a great time for artists, music, growing together! I saw Jackson at Red Rocks and then saw picture from stage on inside insert if album. As I listened that night, was captivated ..."who is she? That girl can sing!"

[@SteveEcksteinDouglasDrive]

ROCK ME ON..ROCK INTO THE LATE NITE. YO, MR. BROWNE & BAND+ U BRING ME COMFORT FROM MY STORM. THANKS. ROCK ON, FROM MR. SPOCK=" LIVE LONG & PROSPER"

[@blairknight4944]

good song and DAMN! She can really sing backup. such a beautiful voice both her and jackson browne.

[@stargazer6753]

@beachsided. “ I’ll be in the dark , but you’ll be out of sight “. What a great line in a song. I think most probably this was his contribution to the song that he wrote with Nancy Farnsworth the mother of his wife.

[@maryhumanick7433]

He.is.the.best by.far.

[@louisesadowsky2916]

One of my absolutely favorite songs. Everyone has probably had a person that would leave and come back. I did. And you don't know if you can open up and let them in again. He was so in touch with his emotions and put them out there for the rest of us.

[@margaretcook1839]

Louise, I was the person that wanted to leave and then come back, hoping he would come back, sorry. This is the song that brought me to Jackson and it will always be my favorite.!

[@louisesadowsky2916]

It is a wonderful song that I am sure brings back many memories for many people.

[@louisesadowsky2916]

To Paul, where ever you are after 40 years. THIS IS FOR YOU.

[@kbbpll7338]

Jackson's got that whole Joe Cocker scarecrow thing going on. And why didn't Rosemary Butler become the next Linda Ronstadt? This and Load Out/Stay would be nothing without her signature.

I agree! I also love Elton John....I just love them BOTH!! Thank God for such great music Jackson!! :)

I know it's the 70's, Rosemary Butler looks high as a kite. Which even got me more into her and her singing.

[@msfordracer90]

MUSIC-art of making harmonious combinations of tones. Music is what keeps us grounded. Seek it out, let it in, and if it doesn't blow your sails, move on and get some cheese for your whine.
