Marc Cohn - Walking In Memphis (Live ]

Great song. Just makes ya feel good.

[@idanwillenchik3050]

It's a crime that Marc Cohn didn't become a bigger star.

[@brooks5656]

Probably as talented as Steve Winwood.

[@drakrenzerwm-jv1jz]

I know Mark Cohn is Jewish. That makes the line, "Are you a Christian, Child?....M'aam I am tonight". An extremely powerful line.....it was completely truthful.....he was so moved he was transformed to the place, the time and the people.......POIGNANT, POWERFUL AND TRUTHFUL

[@kevlally]

Your're right. Beautiful. Moving. Thanks for sharing. Irish K

[@ryanw3658]

Cohen is definitely the root of his last name. The priestly class.….hes like super Jewish. Good song fr tho.

[@davidnavarro4821]

No other instruments, no backing vocals, just the piano and Marc Cohn! So moving! 🎹 🎤

[@wb22666]

This live performance is a great example of a guy who has faith in his song, way beyond any commercial consideration. I saw him recently, and he still makes it new and relevant. Well worth going out of your way to see him!

[@gdgbjbfgcbjn]

Right on

[@dukefernando6956]

There's no better way to say it Bill.

[@soloscriptura7451]

He believed in it I think.

[@evatill5458]

One of the best first class ticket!!!!!

[@lorimcconnell3123]

Just saw Marc Cohn for the first time tonight after enjoying this song for decades. He’s got so many great songs! Well worth going to see him if you can.

[@shadowstrider3942]

That’s got to be one of the best live performances I’ve ever seen. Totally missed this.

[@bladeobrian2144]

You know, my father absolutely loves this song. When I was little, I’d hear it when he put it on, but since I didn’t know anything about Elvis, Memphis, Gospel, or anything like that, I didn’t really “get” this song. When I was about 18/19, I heard this number, and I finally got it!

[@8778yeh]

I remember hearing this on BBC radio one and the next Saturday i went to Fab records in Finchley, London and buying the cassette. Still have it and love listening to Marc Cohn.

[@andreastoth1089]

This guys talent blows me away.

[@captainnice9698]

One of the most touching songs ever written

[@mariabrosamer6998]

I'm amazed by how good he is. Incredible

[@HandwhistlerBen]

Fabulous voice! He really puts the words across with so much expression. He reminds me of Joe Cocker and Michael Bolton.....with just a piano accompanying himself. What an amazing performance.....

[@YM-bs7sf]

Favorite part!!!! "She said, tell me, are you a Christian child? I said, Ma'me I am tonight."

[@CalvinEbertsOfficial]

Real story from him: he is actually jewish and didn't know any of the christian hyms she was singing, untill she asked if he knew Amazing Grace , which he blew the audience away with.

[@calebyoung1579]

It's funnier, because he's Jewish. Lol!

[@rsvihla]

Not to be a pedant, but it’s “Ma’am,” not “Ma’me.”

[@Rebecca-asdf]

Yes 😍😍😍🙌🏾

[@trevorjames3958]

​@Randall Svihla lol I find it funny how people feel the need to correct other people's writing. Like they are presenting a book to them, and their are proofreading their work...this is the internet.

[@TonyGillarno]

That last bit he does on the piano just before the end kills me.

[@dportnoy1]

One of the best songs of that era, of quality, like Billy Joel, nice

[@xandldandl]

I just love it that his voice is really as beautiful as in the official track. Proves even more what a great musician he is :)

[@ELVISRN1]

THIS IS ONE BAD ASS SONG. THE BEST.CHILLS ON MY SKIN. THANKS MARC. DO ANOTHER SOON... THE KING...

[@franeckiqejwillisurp8665]

'There's a pretty little thing, waitin' for the King down in the Jungle Room'. That’s got to be one of the best live performances I’ve ever seen. Totally missed this.

[@Yesica1993]

I never get tired of this song!

[@user-lx6iv8se4x]

One of the most emotional songs ever heard 😢❤

[@freddyjimenez2383]

brilliant !!! Favorite part!!!! "She said, tell me, are you a Christian child? I said, Ma'me I am tonight." EPIC

[@paddy.7784]

One of those songs, that the first time I heard it, I knew was a classic, and would always be a favorite of mine. I'm now 70years old , and that hasn't changed. Thank you Marc , for the good feelings, your performance of this song has given me over the years. From New Zealand / Aotearoa. Arohanui .

[@danpearce5192]

Marc is the best live singer song writer I've ever seen

[@gloriadean3230]

Dan Pearce no, Barry Gibb is

[@deniskhakimov]

I fully agree with you! He seems to be the best live singer especially in this performance!

[@scyanks7]

Dan Pearce easy there fella

[@amyjoystudios]

Truly talented man

[@mikeoneil546]

No, Marc Cohn is. Maybe he hasn't seen those others. How can you debate this? Only he knows the best songwriter that HE has ever seen.

[@lauraluffman6177]

Still sounds good this man can sing

[@jhay2004]

Most people don’t even know ow who this guy is. I remember when the song came out always one of my favorites does one create such a masterpiece of them disappear. The soul in this guy’s voice is unreal.

[@Jack-kh8er]

The power of true talent fused with a great, great song...

[@lindadonovan7544]

Wow what a lift this song gives me Marc is amazing live could listen to this till the sky falls in

[@spacematter3645]

I used to go to memphis alot to visit a friend of mine this brings back memories and it feels as if I'm walking in memphis again smiling and happy in the sunshine beside my old friends. . . . But do you really feel the way I feel? love it.

[@acaldwe1174]

Amazing how moments can be captured in melody.....

[@Jwdude123]

Timeless magical classic.

[@miriammerritt3438]

Wonderful......he is terrific.

[@deniskhakimov]

The best performance of this song. Only vivid and deep piano sound and Marc's live voice...

[@rogahnznrmairelxb5940]

Dude got shot in the head......and drove home from the hospital 8 hours later. Marc is the best live singer song writer I've ever seen

[@aliciakerlinsky206]

This looks like Austin CIty Limits. Wish I could find the whole concert. I've seen "Fever" and it is a great finale. It takes guts to come out and play solo - and to vary the rhythm, timing and style of piano blues. What a musician. What a great career. Keep writing and playing, Mark. Love the new album studio videos!

[@TJIMcAfee]

I grew up at the end of the 90's listening to Marc Cohen, Uncle Kracker, U2, Bon Jovi and The Goo Goo Dolls. Yes I know they are all not of that generation but that is what music I listened to. I would rather have them perform any day then the crap we here on the radio today.

[@JocksAREbrown]

Wow! I don't even have words. Chills listening to this!

[@MeganYLaz]

He plays piano like an angel. His shirt is also like an angel. And the couple's glasses at the end. Love this song. So So So good. Genius.

[@johnbarnett6924]

This looks like Austin City Limits, Thanks for this Post❤ John

[@Doc2609]

Blown away....what a great performance and a stirring song!!!

[@deborahwilliams3723]

He is awesome and God has blessed him

[@armychapmike]

Something about black gospel. Even you aren’t Christian your human soul knows that God loves you as you are

[@richardbluesgang]

Great song and great singer, for this great place and the great people who lives there.

[@12iloveyou100]

Raw and perfect.

[@gordoncagle631]

From very first hearing, I have always love this song.

[@stevewoan6]

This is truly a very powerful song. His lyrics are so good (IMO) that he almost puts one in the moment, in other words i feel like im there at Graceland. So well done, WOW!

[@snookumsjack]

Just got back from Memphis--Stayed at the Peabody (watched the ducks march and swim in the fountain) Beale St, BBQ, and carriage ride. Can't beat it. Next time will see more. My feet lifted 10 feet off the ground too.

[@euqip]

What a completely great song!

[@carlafinn8810]

One of my favorite songs.

[@johnbray2162]

What a brilliant song and performance

[@welpiguess]

Walking in Memphis Put on my blue suede shoes And I boarded the plane Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues In the middle of the pouring rain W.C. Handy, won't you look down over me? Yeah, I got a first class ticket But I'm as blue as a boy can be Then I'm walking in Memphis Was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis But do I really feel the way I feel? Saw the ghost of Elvis On Union Avenue Followed him up to the gates of Graceland Then I watched him walk right through Now security they did not see him They just hovered 'round his tomb But there's a pretty little thing Waiting for the King Down in the Jungle Room When I was walking in Memphis I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis But do I really feel the way I feel? They've got catfish on the table They've got gospel in the air And Reverend Green be glad to see you When you haven't got a prayer But, boy, you've got a prayer in Memphis Now Muriel plays piano Every Friday at the Hollywood And they brought me down to see her And they asked me if I would Do a little number And I sang with all my might She said "Tell me are you a Christian child?" And I said "Ma'am, I am tonight" Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) Was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) But do I really feel the way I feel? Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) But do I really feel the way I feel? Put on my blue suede shoes And I boarded the plane Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues In the middle of the pouring rain Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues In the middle of the pouring rain

[@alaeque]

Keys and a mic, live. That's it. Think about it

[@jakekeys88music]

I know how that goes!

[@songstress2506]

Amen to that, Andy. What happened to the bare bones, the stripped down to basics, the vulnerability...I miss it.

[@malsiee]

songstress250 it’s still around, you just have to know where to look these days

[@willritter4076]

I'd be honored if some fans of acoustic covers would take a listen to my piano & vocal performances of WALKING IN MEMPHIS by Marc Cohn and PRAYING FOR TIME by George Michael on my YT channel in tribute to 2 great classics of the late 80s/early 90s period. Live acoustic with no autotuning or digital editing. Thanks and peace.

[@NARROWGUT]

Yes.....they are the only tools of trade that a true talent really needs.....the rest is them, their spirit and their soul....Marc Cohn has plenty of spirit and plenty of soul!

[@Avigailish]

✨✨✨HE IS AMAZINGGG

[@docluv14]

That's pure, soulful talent. Thank you for posting this video!

[@vinniekay0967]

Amazing song and Amazing voice.. In a way the impact Michael McDonald had on me back in the days.. Stunning Talent!

[@madisonterry5200]

This song is to amazing for words. My favorite verse: Touch down on the land of the delta blues in the middle of the pouring rain.

[@spydercraftweb6258]

Beautiful song and I love the part of him becoming a Christian 💗

[@andyc.4387]

He's not. He's Jewish.

[@jurgenblick5491]

That's not autotune it's just talent

[@barbarabauer4426]

Awesome song! You don't have to be a Christian to feel it ... it is so overall spiritual.

[@coledrinkswater]

Barbara Bauer yeah, you don't because Marc is Jewish

[@riteasrain]

Barbara Bauer Stupid comment.

[@NARROWGUT]

TIMELESS!

[@YouGCF]
