Someone Who Loves Me - Sara Bareilles & The Milk Carton Kids | Live from Here with Chris Thile

[@jamesborum4092]

I have lost count of the number of times I have watched this. It may be the best live performance, of any song, ever.

[@Yrksman]

Agree 100%

[@t3hsis324]

Can confirm that this is still a tear jerker, months later.

[@javahedz]

69 years old, and this song and performance just wrings me into a puddle, thinking of my precious late wife of 31 years .... I could put this on a 24 hour loop, but it probably wouldn't be productive. LOL

[@promoted738]

Peace to you brother - she's listening with you. I'd like to think that when good people pass their souls are in everything that moves our souls while we're here. That's what I wanna be when I go.

[@saraadams9518]

It's a beautiful lullaby. She's always pitch perfect

[@stuffnuns]

I was lucky to work with Ms. Bareilles . Not only a brilliant talent, she is one of the kindest people I’ve worked for.

[@imonohana]

Amazing - thanks for sharing that detail about her kindness - that is exactly what I would expect based on what she shares of herself by the way she sings - I hear generosity, vulnerability, and authenticity. Her singing goes straight to my heart.

[@crunchybunbun]

It shows in her music

[@guillermomeza349]

I've never heard or read bad things about her attitude towards people. We all are entitled to have our bad days, but she is so down to earth and just great to people. I am so glad she is someone I look up to. I feel like I know her so well by listening to her music.

[@ilovesunvalley]

Thank you for sharing that. Makes me appreciate her all the more!! XO

[@asw19B100]

@@imonohana Look too at the music and lyrics of Waitress the musical that SB wrote/composed and shepherded onto Broadway. Such a compelling story so sensitively done. So sad we no longer have Live From Here to bring us gems such as these, and another great loss not hearing Gaby Moreno anymore on the public radio platform.

[@gailwilliams2678]

I'm 77, a former singer, and a connoisseur of love songs, and I think Sara writes them better than most everyone. Her songs have no "mush" in them, and are very "real." I have wasted love along the way.

[@MermaidCore_]

So funny since her first hit was “I’m not gonna write you a love song.” 😊❤

[@omahajim22]

I really didn’t need to be crying on my lunch hour, but here we are

[@AnaFranciscone]

[@ilovesunvalley]

I love a guy who can cry! That’s why I love my hubby so much

[@Maureen-sm7qm]

damn, same.

[@ExodusPessoa]

This song is sooooooooooooooo beautiful. I'm fighting the tears.

[@Wiley_Coyote]

The world is a far better place because Sara Bareilles is in it.

[@clemsplace]

In under a year from this broadcast date, the pandemic shut a lot of the world down. Among other casualties, we lost this amazing show. Oh gosh, please bring Live From Here back for us. It really mattered a lot. I think it would matter even more now.

[@TheBromptonTraveler]

5 years later and I'm still the worst I've ever been. Sara, I am here again for the healing. Thank you for the gift of your music.

[@TimOstdiek]

This is just about everything. So glad to be living in a time where Sara Bareilles, The Milk Carton Kids, and Chris Thile are creating so much moving music.

[@kellywhite1441]

Yes! ♡

[@bbhdd6181]

thanks for the new music recs - I love them!

[@brianharder7714]

Damn. She is so pitch perfect. Her vocal tone just ahead of the guitar and never missing a thing. Gorgeous.

[@Aunty-A]

Her breathing is pretty astonishing also!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@michaelbaumann7722]

I swear, this woman could sing me the phone book and I would be completely beguiled.

[@njetherington]

Tis true. Pitch perfectly too from A to Z!

[@omahajim22]

Accurate.

[@hobbiton64]

I'd listen!

[@thesherishow3219]

She mesmerizes me every time. And these acoustic ones and harmonies are like a sunrise to my ears

[@Christykmartin]

This song just breaks my heart. It is the most accurate description of allowing someone to love you through anxiety. She is such a gifted storyteller. 💜💜💜

[@Santialid]

I'm exactly in this situation, and I'm the one bracing for the winds. This just gave me more reason to.

[@Cletus_the_Elder]

On this stage, on this day, this song became perfect.

[@djdollase]

God, I love this woman. So incredibly talented and a voice I could listen to forever.

[@greglara62]

The volume of talent in those few square feet is mind-blowing. There are few who can so seamlessly evoke brave truths of the heart with such lyrical vulnerability and beauty.

[@emiliehan3570]

live Sara is best Sara. the emotion she gets is always breathtaking

[@jacintacesp]

I know. It's the sign of a true singer songwriter.

[@gary3510]

Well put

[@andreadimayuga]

Her live shows are truly some of the best I’ve ever been to. Any time she’s in my area I go see her. Could never get tired of her.

[@CLSM929]

Any Sara is the best Sara!

[@marksopinionservice]

I agree, isn't that usually the way. Except for this song. The original is more nuanced than she can be here, especially in a few key moments, even though this is a fantastic version, her voice amazing, flawless. And it is emotional, absolutely. In the album version, her emotions just drip and lag, and fall off the edge of smooth the slightest way that is searing, exposes a rawness the way Bonnie Raitt does at her best. Only mention it in case someone hasn't listened clear-eared to the album.

[@emmacampo6637]

Coming back to this live performance of Sara Bareilles. Timeless masterpiece. ❤

[@asw19B100]

Me too- to my ear and heart it just keeps getting better and better.

[@udittherockstar]

Her live performances are always more raw and breathtaking. It’s like her songs reincarnate and take a different life when she performs them live.

[@eka98_]

forever enchanted by sara’s vocal color 😢

[@annafp100]

Keep coming back to this masterclass of songwriting and delivery. Perfect arrangement, perfect vocals, perfect song. What a tender thing to put out into the world. Also props to the sound engineers; they always deliver.

[@petep5745]

Another very fine female vocalist and musician.

[@itinsuranceguy]

Yet another example of Sara's genius in song writing and performance. The simplicity of the strings and sweetness of the vocal harmonies keeps me coming back to this song again and again.

[@Betelgue5e]

Her mind, her voice, and soul is a story weaver. Wonderful Sara.

[@paulniemiec3165]

.... ‘the skies are clear but storms are always coming’ That line gets me every time ❤️ This is an astonishing performance!

[@donseaquist5788]

all the "feels" Love how they accompany her so softly. Fits the song.

[@WreckOfLamb]

Lean back. Close your eyes, listen to Sara. Listen to Joey. Listen to Kenneth. Listen to the harmony. Listen to the words. Enjoy life.

[@hamiltonmackenzie3340]

I have come back to this song more times than any other in my life as a hardcore music lover, it enchants me and brings me to tears every time ❤️

just found it. i could see how it could have that effect. if you have any other recommendations please share!

[@t3hsis324]

[@wingman6067]

"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" by Sara (Live from Atlanta) is also very special.

[@Ottee2]

I finally deeply listened to this song. Tears, yes. It is so beautiful.

[@danac9860]

Sara Bareilles and the Milk Cartoon Kids = beautiful perfection. Keep coming back to this song to remind me of beauty in this often angry world. Thanks for the love you share ❤

[@morganash88]

Heard her sing for the first time yesterday, and it might be OTT to say it, but I think she is the finest singer I've ever heard in my 62 yrs.

[@tom7471]

Consider yourself among the fortunate who know about Sara Bareilles! Also check out anything by Eva Cassidy if you haven't. Sara is one of the best live singers, if not the best, in the world today! Simply flawless.

[@t3hsis324]

Words will not describe how much I love this song, despite it absolutely breaking my heart right now.

[@Kaboomthensprinkles]

Lyrics: Could I rest here for a while Near that medal 'round your neck St. Jude's wearing a smile He wouldn't mind I bet I can't go face the world My bones won't hold me up So tell the saint of lost souls where to find me Softly sleepin' here in the deep end of someone who loves me You'll let me cry it out 'Cause you know that sometimes I can't stop And still I'm seeking how To stand up when the bottom drops The weight of all the world Can blind me to its beauty But every time I need to be reminded I know you will, and say you're still someone who loves me I try to push it down But it comes back faster and harder Tides are changing on a dime And I'm just trying to keep my head above the water Surrender's just a word 'Til you try it out And see how hard it is to hurt With someone else around I'm the worst I've ever been Afraid of almost everything The skies are clear but storms are always comin' Your gift to me Is just to be Bracing for the winds I always summon My home, my heart Thank God you are Someone who loves me

[@gregles76]

im just so hooked on this song so unbelievably miserable, beautiful and moving.

[@essargee14]

I so agree, I got chills watching this video

[@vincello8]

ME TOO!! Totally agree - regardless though, her lyrics are flawlessss

[@elizzzybeth]

Totally agree! I listened to the album than had to go to youtube hoping for live versions. She's just such a nuanced, beautiful performer that I almost feel like too much orchestra takes away from the performance. So glad she does plenty of live stuff!

[@sinisterfw]

Studio albums tend to be a bit overproduced. Like the album version, but this version is amazing. Also thanks to the MCK.

[@JudeEzzie]

I think of this song in so many ways. Romantic, platonic, familial. it is so hard to allow people to love you when anxiety is a constant force telling you otherwise

[@SauliusMatas1]

You can also think of it as a prayer.

[@JudeEzzie]

@@SauliusMatas1 it really does feel like one. Very calm and safe

[@mikec3201]

one of the most talented musicians of our time. her voice literally gives me chills. such feel and emotion yet performed with surgical precision.

[@aMulliganStew]

She is a generational talent.

[@Boo-oh6oh]

I've seen and heard many beautiful things. Grace, elegance, harmony, MUSIC. I have been moved and altered by such things. I have felt love, in such painful, wonderful abundance, but I've never been star struck before. DAMN! I am for her. I am head over heels , in ridiculous, "let me count the ways" love with Sara Bareilles, a girl I will never know. She makes my heart soar, and sore simultaneously with the rise and fall and the slightest turn of her voice, the crinkle of her nose, and the sight of that tiny murder of crows etched upon her exquisite neck, just behind her ear. Having said all that, know that I do not suffer from any delusions and I meant it in the most non threatening way.

[@Kathleen5429]

This touches my heart because I just lost the 'someone who loves me.' RIP my very special someone.

[@BigMedley]

Her musicianship is so breathtaking I don't even know what to say

[@krakboet]

Have listen to this song at least 200 times the last month. Its the perfect song! The voice, the guitars, the harmonies, the lyrics. I have sent it to all my friends just to show what music is all about! Have learned the chords, try to remember the lyrics, sings along when noone is listening, drops a tear of joy. Thanks!

[@RonEagle44]

I come back here once in a while to remind me how good she is. Love this song.

[@loc5559]

I love the respect and admiration she has for other musicians. She has the best heart.

[@matthirn7858]

Kenneth does his little embellishment and looks to her to make sure he stays tight to her next phrase. Sara's smile in return says so much. Musicians enjoying one another's talent in the midst of a performance makes everything that much better.

[@guychoate2905]

Simply beautiful. The reason God made music.

I've sung her accolades before, and I can't stop - Sara deserves all the praise and recognition (and love from me and so many others) she is getting. She remains vulnerable, honest, weak, strong, beautifully human, and speaks Truth in a World that very often seems so deceitful, chaotic and unhinged. She is a constant support to me from afar - and yet, not.
