Mary Chapin Carpenter - Songs From Home Episode 19: This Shirt

[@DaveLeoni]

Beautiful.

[@StevenvonBriesen]

Always amazing!

[@stefanomancino]

Ballata dolcissima. Adorabile solo con la chitarra e un bellissimo sorriso. Perfetta.

[@jerrykooyman]

This song is one of my favourites... so lovely and great fingerpicking!

[@lauriesimmons1795]

Mary Chapin, tears of joy are flowing. Thank you for songs from home. You have brought me tremendous joy during a very dark time.

[@angelatropics]

Just received and listened to This Shirt on Sometimes Just The Sky. What a beautiful recording/version. Wanted to find it on KZbin, perhaps live, and came across this. Thank you for decades of your soulful music and lyrics. The healing is in the lyrics.

[@soshea4158]

One of my favourite songs ever.

[@johnchivers6790]

I got goose bumps listening to this brilliant song played so well. Mary I saw you play The Forum in Bath UK a few years ago. Brought back many happy memories.

[@mitchmatthews6713]

I wish that your camera was 2-way, so that you could see all of the smiles that are flashing back to you!

[@markbreaux6086]

And the happy tears. :-)

[@trailrunnerable]

a Great comment Mitch ! My Dad is 90 years young and lives by himself and I try and send him every new song that he can watch and hear

[@mariaroncalli863]

trailrunnerable that is such a sweet thought! Well done! I send a big hug to your dad although I don’t know him! Our elders are so precious!

[@AdamWestUS]

So very true! 🥰🥰

[@direwolf6234]

sung while wearing a blue shirt .. 'with the collar turned up high' .. truly 'stuff that works' ..

[@KMediaTVChannel]

listening to Mary is like having a badass guitar player, a poet, a singer, a philosopher, an animal lover all in one performing.

[@KNOPFLERSGOD]

Exactly, I have always thought of Mary as the female Mark Knopfler.

[@rickmarcotte2386]

Always look forward to time spent listening to you Mary. Thanks so much!

[@KNOPFLERSGOD]

Mary, this is such a beautiful song, probably my favourite of yours. Thanks for playing it.

[@loisscheidt]

Thank you thank you thank you!

[@susiewheeler8197]

Thank you for the beautiful songs you sing

[@virtualRod]

Well, ya did it. Ya pulled out the tears, Mary. This song has so many memories from my sweet, sweet love. He's gone now but the music we shared keeps those memories here; in MY heart. ❤

[@patrickschabel3955]

She always pulls out the tears I love this woman dearly

[@marythurman7651]

Love that Gentle Angus keeps close tabs on you. Thanks for the song, one of many favorites.

[@tracydanz734]

These have kept us going thru this crazy time. Thank you!

[@rjmcallister1888]

A staple of any Chapin show. Angus is getting the timing thing down; make 'em wait for you to make your appearance, and exit front stage. Probably looking for a snack. Keep being delightful!

[@tammycain4782]

This is such a great song. Thanks for such an awesome distraction from the craziness in the world.

[@mariaroncalli863]

God, that guitar plays soooo spectacularly!!!

[@davidlendzyk8684]

Very nice song ! Thank you my good friend ! Stay Mighty !

[@tateandemmy]

I've love you since I listened to you on TNN in late 80's! Your music got me though so many life problems the past 35 years. Thank you Mary!

[@pwb0511]

Mary, I believe you have captured the pure heart of all humanity with your poetry and guitar/voice. You certainly have lifted my spirits these many weeks. A million hugs!

[@reneewisch6798]

Thank you so much for playing that song MCC, really cheers me up! Till we met again.

[@davemclellan4019]

MCC thank you every day for these songs. They all bring tears! But they're good tears.

[@debraforbes2518]

I listened to your music all day yesterday and absolutely love your voice and music. However, the song about the shirt is one of my favorites. Can't wait to hear your new album!

[@rainbowwillow63]

As beautiful as always!

[@secretlifeist]

Beautiful Mary as usual thank you 🙏 🙏🙏

[@timlane-bortell2678]

Thanks so much!

[@deboraheliason188]

Thank you so much for your beautiful voice and words. Such a pleasant break from all this craziness!

[@DavidAndrewsPEC]

Thank you, Mary, for singing to us!!

[@oddlyeven1441]

You are magical!

[@meglyons76]

You and your music are such a gift - thank you so much for sharing your beautiful songs with us. I agree with others - coming to KZbin to a new Songs from Home is a true highlight in the week for me. Thank you, Mary - London misses you but staying well is most important. Many thanks again for the mighty wonder you bring us.

[@davidparnell1893]

Mary can measure the human soul with a few chords and a few words...and when the song ends you are left with swirls of thoughts and memories...maybe a laugh or a tear...old times and old friends feel again near....as if time were unlocked from the physical world...to restore things once so dear....(I'm glad I chanced upon this song today...an intimate song to light my way)

[@jerrycratsenberg989]

Thanks for sharing, it was lovely!

[@tzc2694]

Beautiful series of beautiful songs, beautifully sung. Bless you Mary Chapin.

[@davidlendzyk8684]

Is there anything better drinking a cup of tea or coffee and listening to wonderful music like this ! So so good !

[@reginalee4461]

Me this song takes me back to a great time. Thank you for you're beautiful music

[@davidmclean9540]

Just lovely. Clothes as text, clothes as narration, clothes as the story of our lives. And if you were to gather all the clothes you have ever owned in all of your life, each baby shoe and winter coat and wedding dress, your would have your autobiography. -Linda Grant

[@alicemiller4298]

[@natedierberger1912]

Beautiful story in the song. I can tell it means a lot to you because you sing it with such passion. Thanks, Mary!

[@deniselleck]

Thank you! I had a good cry listening to this. Twice.

[@Adrian.Kirk.]

One of my favourites (I'm British and we do spell it like that). Lovely, thank you. I am looking forward to the new album.

[@TheLittletrees]

Love this song Mary Chapin Carpenter, continue to be with us through these tough times, it sure helps. ❤️

[@captainkprflury3480]

One of my favorite songs of yours. Thanks for making my day MCC!! Stay mighty!

[@texhaines9957]

Listening a year later reminded me of my New Jersey Boys State t-shirt I wore till it no longer fit. That year Jersey Boys State was in Princeton NJ. Thanks Mary.

[@kerrierider9464]

We have been enjoying the songs you have been doing during this series. Aside from being one of our all time favorite artist, my husband and I met during your concert back in 1993. Thank you for sharing your gifts.

[@57grogg]

Thank you for playing This Shirt; you’re the best!

[@diannes.1275]

Beautiful song - one of my favorites! ❤

[@shellystallion9307]

Such a great and favorite story song. We are all heartbroken here on Maui, and all over Hawaii and the world really, at the loss of our beloved Willie K. That Hawaiian could sing and play it all, an incomparable talent, beautiful soul and lovable character. Your music always soothes the heart, just what’s needed at this time. Mahalo Chapin!

[@stevepenney6459]

You are a marvelous musician!!

[@TriciaWalker]

One of my all time favorites....thank you, MCC...

[@giancarlozulian6976]

In Italia a poco a poco stiamo tornando alla normalità e non riesco a seguire il live, ma ti rivedo con calma. Sei veramente solare! E' un momento di gioia e serenità. Grazie Mary!

[@drumcconaughy330]

Thank you so much, Mary Chapin!! You are a treasure!! And also each and every one of your Songs from Home. Thanks also to Angus and White Kitty, whether asleep or awake! Staying mighty in New York.

[@gooddog3651]

Wow, what a song and what a performance. I have loved all the songs from home but this one helped me stop and think and wonder. Thank you so much. ✨

[@rogerplested9484]

thank you

[@rjk8008]

"If there are no dogs in heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went." - Will Rogers. Thanks again for the pick me up today!

[@sandramorris407]

So nice to hear you call out Shawn Colvin. The two of you singing together is my idea of heaven. Maybe the technology for you two to sing harmonies together from home could be done. Love this beautiful song.

[@eds1341]

Thank you for singing one of my favorite songs of yours, although there are so many "favorites". You make so many of us feel better, Mary.

[@markpashia7067]

All I can say is "Thank you young lady". You are a ten foot talent packed into a five foot something package.

[@casssmith3887]

One of my alltime fave songs. Soooo touching

[@negocios0rsk]

Thank you! That’s a F A V O R I T E ! You’re the best!

[@oldbikerbear]

Thank you again Mary , for the beautiful job on another beautiful son. I had not herd this one before but perhaps just because I have never seen you live. I dont have an actual bucket list just a list of singers I want to see live before I go to live with the old folks back home, you are right there at the top of the list. Someday perhaps.
