Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you

I don't think the Chicks ever performed this song better than this. It's better than the studio recording. Their ability to perform live is off the charts. The rest of the band too. So much talent here. The steele playing is sooo good. Then Marties fiddle playing. No words to describe it. Then you have Natalies voice. This performance is a perfect 10 !!

[@bertforbes1212]

You are probably right. And the Chicks could attract the best Talent. I see renown guitarists Keith Sewell, David Grisson, and Audley Freed, and others. It's curious that on their 2016 tour, the Band was half the size as in 2006. But I didn't notice any diminution of Sound Quality.

[@benlaw4647]

Yep , this is their best ...

[@carolinesantilli]

My favorite version of this song. And when this special was on, I remember watching a short clip in which Martie forgets how to play the first fiddle solo - so funny!

[@alana9832]

I could not agree more and I feel exactly the same way.Their harmonies are incredible on this song.This is by far and away the best song they have ever done especially this rendition of Cowboy!

[@sammychapman1730]

I think this is a beautiful song. But don't try to tell me how to think. I will figure that out on my own!!!

Marties smile when they applaud her solo! so adorable and talented

[@your_huge_ego_bores_me]

They had to redo the song because she had messed up a previous take, and the audience was hip to her challenges so they gave some applause for getting through a difficult part.

[@bertforbes1212]

Funny thing about that violin solo. That was the second time they played the song that nite. Somehow after playing it thousands of time, Martie forgot her part.....That is why, she and the audience shared a chuckle!

[@rodneybrown6326]

🙏. My little brother passed March 17th, 2017. It still fks me up everyday. 😢

[@namcat53]

Lloyd Maines' solid pedal steel guitar playing on this song is essential to how great it sounds. He is the perfect musician for this group, always playing exactly the right notes at the right time, never showing off and making the tune swing and soar as only a master can.

[@robertyoung1777]

Great harmonies. I think Natalie sings with better vocal control and phrasing here than on the original records. More subtle. Great band!

[@ultravioletpisces3666]

She really does. Thanks for pointing it out!

The Dixie Chicks are always a reminder to me that some of the greatest music and greatest musicians have come out of a place called Texas - even though the "prophets" haven't always gotten the honor they deserve in their own country, so to speak...like Buddy Holly or Janis Joplin.

[@lisamcgarah4344]

The best song they ever recorded. Written by Martie Maguire,the fiddle player, and songwriter Marcus Hummon. ❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🙏

[@MichaelaMarie2012]

So I'm gonna be honest...I heard of this song for the first time about a week ago, and didn't listen to it for the first time until today. I'm singing this song with some other people in a musical revue at my school, and now that I've heard it, I can't help but think: what a beautiful song!! I'm so glad my director chose me to be in the ensemble for this.

[@rosemaryochoa4789]

the talent is uncomparable

[@BrianJones1120]

These ladies are some of the last of the country music greats. They simply do not make them like this anymore. We love you girls, keep doing what you do because we crave it! I hope you ladies read these comments and see all of the support you have out there, its nothing but love coming your way from Kentucky!

[@ericlarsen6209]

Miss the 90's country

[@JosephWeidinger]

my favorite part is 3:33 after the final chorus when they repeat the "closer to you." It starts with Natalie and Emily (mid and lower voice). Then Natalie and Marty (mid and higher voice). Then the camera zooms to all of them and their voices just open a floodgate of energy as they all sing their perfect harmonies. I like how Emily is the only one who changes her voice up and down on the "me" which adds nice subtle movement. Amazing! It all makes the hair on my neck stand up

[@juliealexis3169]

These girls are so talented! Vocals are always great, they play multiple instruments along with the full band and writing their own songs.. something your don't see a lot anymore. The instrumentals and vocals on this song are just awesome.

[@thebountyhunter2783]

Have you heard Foxes and Fossils rendition of this song? They are magnificent.

The way she says "away" has such a nice accent and tone to it. Her voice didn't change one bit from 1999 that's for sure.

[@7maxxx960]

[@afn4952]

I always want artists to sing and play songs “live” exactly as we first heard on their recordings, that caused us to fall in love with how they performed them, and with them, and made us buy their albums and listen to them hundreds and hundreds of times. They do better than anyone.

[@pattimartin7250]

bullshit. Bush and Cheney ate their own young, with a war that was based on lies. The Chicks just said what the entire world has come to know. Shame is directed at those who lied, not those who truthed. Real Country people. Right.

[@MrKaitland]

Patti Martin Bush and Cheney. That's all you have to say to tell me that you are a thick headed dumb ass; a close minded IDIOT.

[@pattimartin7250]

ya, well, history is hard on you, I know. Doesn't quite fit the image you wish. Go listen to General Powell. He'll educate you. About facts, and lies...and the scam of this war. The Chicks called it correctly.

[@happygayconservative4737]

+Patti Martin Calling it "correctly" took years to decide. Yes, in hind sight yes. However, at the time Natalie decided to call it "correctly" most of their fans disagreed. How stupid and narcissistic could Natalie be to, apparently, not know her own audience. Natalie killed the goose that laid the golden egg. Only an idiot does that.

Taking on a radical government in Afghanistan harboring terrorist that attacked America was wrong? I suppose given the people utilities and women an education was a bad thing too. No the only reason why things are so bad and Isis exist today is because there are Americans who worry to much about our image. if you want to eradicate evil you must search it out to the ends and not try to look politically correct in war. it's to bad the dixie chicks went down the drain but with the right of freedom of speech you can express with no repercussions from the govt. however you run the risk of angering the people that buy your product
