Rodney Crowell - I Know Love Is All I Need

[@helenwatson706]

When I first met my husband he would sing this song. Eventually, I would harmonize on the chorus. I always found this song so heartbreaking yet beautiful. I lost my husband unexpectedly four years ago 💔. Hearing this song again, I am so grateful for the love we got to share.

[@thirtythousandpages]

Thanks for one of the best songs ever written.

[@07oscarboy]

How he sings this without crying I can't imagine.

[@lincolnmaceachern2410]

I sang this song at the funeral of my Dad, Arnold MacEachern (1934-2022 ) last week;I sang for my Mom 7 years ago. I might have sang "Things I Wish I'd Said", but I don't think my Dad and I ever had a harsh word.

I knew Rodney when I lived East when Houston was a younger "town".Always had a gift for gab,a transistor radio,and Jesus Christ ! his faith worked.What alot of great songs!I am grateful to know he is the the author of some of my very favorites.Summer nights were spent outdoors at the drive-ins,Sunday bar-b-q's,Church,and friends and family.I am proud of you for working so hard,Rodney.

[@SkipWay]

one of his loveliest songs. Rodney is one of our greatest songwriters because he brings his life into his songs, and they resonate with truth and grace. great post!

[@buratino66]

Rodney was the BEST concert of 2010....I may never see a show as special and wonderful as the show he performed in Columbia, Missouri USA. OUTSTANDING!

[@TexKat45]

I have listened to this a thousand times and I cry every damn time.

[@juliananderson3708]

everytime I hear this song I know why I love Rodney crowells songs I have been fortunate enough to see him live in melbourne at a small pub venue, I have a autographed poster he signed for me . I know this song will especially touch my heart when my mum passes away Julian

[@Rhondalove]

A lovely song. For a few years Rodney would close his show with this song. I never wanted a Rodney show to end. Thank you for sharing.

[@awizardatruestar]

First time I heard this song was at Rodney's Nottingham (UK) Rock City concert when he was touring The Houston Kid with Will Kimborough. You realise on first listen what a fascinating and beguiling number it is. The perfect way to round off the album. Those are killer opening words: 'So I'm an orphan now, out here on my own.' Looking forward to the Chinaberry Sidewalks tour coming to England.

[@bethannluckett9130]

One of the very best songwriters and storytellers ever.

[@yaakov2342]

A remarkable songwriter.Rodney surely has a way with his story telling. Love his guitar playing.

[@Ze18613]

Beautiful. Thanks a lot. Houston Kid is one of the best albums of the last 10 years.

[@ggforeigner]

the more I listen to this, the more I love it

[@alex497]

It doesn't get any better than this ...glorious stuff ....

[@koenan1]

Thanks to Fresh Air for bringing this poignant song and thoughtful songwriter to so many new ears (mine included!).

[@ITRYNVC]

Yes, simply just awesome....

[@ptrombley444]

Note to self! A year later & things haven't changed all that much. Can do without a repeat of last year. A better outcome seem possible !

[@cliffvassaur6571]

Genius come to mind

[@driverain2]

Beauty Is Beautiful...... Angels singing......H-Town ....

[@robertcosar1]

read rodney's "chinaberry sidewalks" and you'll love this song even more. this man is a master

[@stkemble]

Good book, gives insight. Many of his life experiences are in his songs.

[@pollbaseball]

This is a beautiful song

[@gailnauen2759]

Rodney, you're the best. Songwriter extradonaire! Loved Chinaberry Sidewalks. Someday I'll get it signed.

[@allynshaving5922]

an artists artist, this man is in league with Cash, prine, hank sr, other writer/singers

[@mcdade51]

I grew up on Telephone road Just a few miles from where Rodney did. He is 10 years older so I never knew him but it is amazing to me how similar our lives were. That is except for his musical talent. I play alot of his songs which is easy. He wrote so many beautiful compositions that he will always be my favorite.

[@NatureBoy1957]

I grew up off of Canal St in the Second Ward of Houston and my elementary school was on Telephone Rd. I later lived and worked very close to Wayside Dr. My life growing up was also similar to Rodney’s, an alcoholic father, lower middle class with never enough money but my parents somehow scraped by. What a beautiful song, one of his best.

[@bricksofblandanova]

beautiful :)

[@becky908]

I listened to this song when my parents died

[@picknfish]

Becky Kinney 🕯 played this at my father's funeral reception, '12...

[@jaywarshaw7687]

Sadness & loss. We endure it. What's the alternative?

[@Padjero100]

❤

[@GuyEmusic]

Almost too good!

[@StephenMag88]

@Ze18613 I agree with you Ze, It's a truly great record.

[@DalonCole]

If by 20 you meant ever I coud not agree more. If you grew up in Houston in the 60s and do not have this CD you should have to move to Dallas

[@Ze18613]

@TheSteved1 On the last 10 years? Please name a few albums

[@ltj999]

I know the chords he is playing but does anyone know or have a link to the exact travis picking pattern he is using? Is it just a standard 4 string pattern?

[@steven240sx]

No doubt, I know what he’s peddling but the hook notes I don’t know where to start

[@lhp777]

A truly wonderful song ,this artist is so underrated in this crap era for music surely the worst ever.

[@Iank14]

@koenan1 Me too,

[@punkk301]

idk this is getting spooky for me i dream about same song and i googled and the first thing he says he actually dream about it too ? wth is going on with my life !

[@killurcreamstar6406]

hi coral...roblox...no...just me OK...
