• Rodney Crowell - Time ...

[@rollingdog7]

He is singing about real people. Twin brothers. His understanding, mild guilt, and just plain love brings tears to my eyes.

[@FlorencePonk77]

It's so sad that mainstream media abandoned this song, when them doing the opposite could have done so much to make people in general question their judgements, perhaps. It's a very special, touching song by a really great artist. Thanks, Steve. xo

I've loved this song since I first heard it. Then he played it live at a show one night and Steuart Smith took that guitar solo on an odyssey among the stars. I've never been so saturated in beautiful sounds as that since. I wish that night was recorded!

[@scrathness]

Steuart Smith’s solo is so excellent at the end. Another amazing song from the master.

[@kenspooner7192]

A tunesmith masterpiece. I first heard by J2B2 (John Jorgenson Bluegrass Band ) The four note riff will stay with you long after the song has ended. Hopefully the lyrics will too for those who need them.

Beautiful

[@buddyhendershot]

An intensely wonderful song and expression of art. Rodney Crowell is a national treasure.

[@tomg212]

One of the best songs, from one of the best songwriters ever. Just too beautiful. Over the last few years I've gotten to see him live a couple of times. I hope to a lot more!

[@Reeseriver]

I believe this is the best, most haunting, most moving song, that Rodney Crowell ever wrote and performed. It makes me think of my brother's coming out process and how blessed I am that he's my brother and lives five minutes from me.

[@Novali95]

This is another great song with Rodney Crowell and I am glad you have introduced also this artist to me. Thank you, Steve! xx

[@rollingdog7]

I should add that I listen to this song often.

I am Roland of Gilead, and I come as myself. YOU WILL OPEN TO ME!

[@anthonycuculino2439]

Hah! I'm here for the same reason, Menachem Rephun of KZbin. Because Ka wills it so!

[@breeeegs]

Thankee-sai

[@breeeegs]

I come in the name of Menachem Rephun, he of New Jersey ;)

[@sfy2004]

funny. i wondered if i would find more people following the Wheel of Ka to this song after reading the Final Argument in Wolves of the Calla......never noticed before it was Enrico Balazar driving the Caddy that ran over Jake. hope you all have enjoyed Rolands tale as much as i.....and that we are all well met.

[@gabriellacalderon9496]

So excited to see I’m not the only one to follow ka 😊

[@garydixon4681]

Rodney Crowell is in the same song writing ballonbasket, that kris Kristofferson has been flying in so high up in the sky. It just took me a lot longer to realize it. If it wasn't for Emmylou Harris's beautiful songs, I may never have discovered Rodney at all? I get more impressed with Rodney as each day goes sliding by.

[@picknfish]

Congrats! Check out Eric Taylor, Dave Alvin, Townes Van Zandt, Lucinda Williams... #BigLove, from Texas 🇨🇱

[@garydixon4681]

@@picknfish Thanks Pickandfish. I've admired Townes Van Zandt, since I can't remember when. "If I needed you" and "Pancho and Lefty," are way up there on my list.

I have no smart Words to share ..I seek no answers ..because I have no questions ..I only in silence listen ...

[@PhivePhivoSteve]

Thanks for that, must play it now. Appreciate your time and comment :-)

[@caynancrenshaw]

I love the guitar solos

[@stkemble]

The guitar solos are so clean and simple, but they do make the song.

[@johnroseman9087]

The work of 'Steuart Smith'... ahhhh.....plays next to Joe Walsh. His first project with Rodney Crowell, after leaving as studio musician in Nashville.

[@DerekScottD]

Stephen King's "The Dark Tower: Wolves of the Calla" brought me here.

[@PhivePhivoSteve]

@tomg212 - Tom, much appreciated your comment and lucky you seeing him 'live'. Pleased you have such good taste and yes he does write such great songs. Best wishes, Steve

[@PhivePhivoSteve]

@Novali95 - You caught me just uploading another ! lol Just wish more people would take the time to listen to his songs, sadly people are too rushed these days. Thanks for bucking that trend and pleased you have joined the admiration of a great singer songwriter. Love and Kram, Steve x

[@caynancrenshaw]

I Love this song from your band
