Amanda is a chameleon and an amazing songwriter. Cannot get enough of her.
I can’t figure out what’s more captivating - this wonderful song, your eyes, your dimples, or that beautiful smile …
Such a beautiful song by an equally talented and beautiful lady. I just found Amanda after finding Jason and listening to her play with him. I knew she had her own band but hadn't checked it out yet because I have been so enthralled with Jason, so when I finally took a look and found her stuff all I can say is wow. A very unique style that should be blowing up the air waves. This lady is every bit as special as her husband and I love the way these two support and build each other.
Wow indeed! This is the first song I have ever heard by Amanda Shires - and today is 8/15/2021. Yeah, I guess I'm living under a rock ;)
Her band is great too.
Ditto 😍 I am in love with them both!
Amanda Shires... the Enchanted Princess of Alternative Country.
My generation's best chance at an Emmylou

There is something magic about the way she slides from minor to major on the harmony in "belieeeeve me." Very cool stuff.
I saw Amanda as support for John Prine at the London Palladium in April 2017. This song stood out in her set even then, despite the heat of anticipation engendered by the proximity of one of one's musical heroes. Since then it has stood up on its own for me and I have played it many times. This video ain't too shabby either!
One of the best songs I've ever heard . I mean like a real song like this one.
I crazy over this song! Big hugs to Amanda ♥️
its a nervous confidence... her voice, the lyrics... she and Jason, what a duo...
Huge fan of both of them. I mean huge. You are spot on with "nervous confidence".
I'll never forget that quote she made about recording something and the sound guy said, 'more note, less goat'... i cracked up at that one
Judson Clayto Not sure what that means??? I have a few cool Amanda stories. She is a badass
she was kinda critiquing herself in that interview... it made her seem more real than your average songsters that are so full of themselves... the downside, i hear goat sounds in between breaks in her words... i've only caught her live once... i was more than impressed... and proud that Jason pushed through the past...
Amanda we need a compilation album with classics like this gem
Beautiful song and, I must admit, one of the sexiest videos I've ever seen.
I said it before and I'll say it again - she is so Nanci Griffith. Love her.
Great song, great vocal and the intriguing Amanda. She has such a strong presence.
Love it. I'm bummed I'm just discovering her now, but I'm glad I did!
This song is sweet as Porto wine; I hope we'll see more Country women songs as such.
This is Americana and it's simply beautiful \Thank you Amanda 🍀
Beautiful and glad that train never came
When the violin comes in it's magical
Great song, great writing and cool video - great album too
Such a cute video and song, different but still has a story behind it. I love songs that do, altho it's not totally needed all the time. Not many women will go w/out makeup and do a closeup like this, of course she's adorable so who cares, right?! I admire her unusual taste, which is a compliment, in all of her work.
+Susans Soul Shines You are right; not many women would make a video like this one. But Amanda isn't most women. She is one impressive lady! ;)
And the lack of all the makeup and confidence in being herself is something too rare, women like that seem to have something about their personalities, I can't help but seeing them as having a strong but pleasant personalities. Even more open and honest in fact.
A ton of us guys wish we could see the real you, not to be undeceived, but because we want to see YOU. My wife has never excessively painted herself. She's beautiful because she just is. Women are.
You don't have to be a cute as Amanda (I'm not even close; I scare crows). Just rock it, girl!
The emotion in her voice is so powerful. I'm glad the train never came.
That's funny. Songwriters thank pain every time they sit down to write something.
But there's some comfort to know it's there if you ever need it
So am I! She was age 29 in this video. That was ten years ago.
God I love Texas and its musical gifts to usl.
Such a beautiful song.
Great song. Jason Isbell you are a lucky man
Amanda, you do not need to wear makeup cuz you are beautiful! and talented too
new listener to Amandas music, loving what i'm hearing.
What a beautiful song, Amanda! Just stumbled across this, shocked to see it wss posted years ago. Would love to hear this live!
One of the best "songs" ever
Linda canção e Maravilhosa cantora.
Just saw the Joan Crawford movie, Mannequin. There’s a scene with Joan’s character and her no good husband waiting for a train. Joan utters a similar line, “Where’s a train when you need it?” Joan’s another Texan. Hope Amanda has seen this movie.
Simply beautiful song.
more I hear this song the more I like it
I discover Amanda Shires right now on iTunes. Really good music. Congrats. Best regards from Uruguay!
Beauty, Talent, Intellect...Ohhh lord..thank you for her!

Wonderful stuff! The song the artist the video.
Excellent. Excellent. Excellent.
Much love and many thanks this song always helps me feel better.
As much as I like Amanda, I didn't especially like this song the first time I heard it. But the more I listen to it, the more I realize that it's a pure, albeit offbeat, work of genius!
clicked replay, that's a killer first verse, and the rest is great too.
Great song. great voice....thank you
she is truly ama,ing
I really like this song from like almost 2 years ago I was @ Nevada city listening to the radio and I love it since then...I'm still waiting for the night train
How beautiful!?
Wow!
Amanda is just unbelievable, i do love her ...
you are amazing
Perhaps just an appreciation for the delightful aesthetics? I can't understand why it's inappropriate. The world would be a more beautiful place is more people paid stylistic homage to Native Americans!
Great song
Love this version Amanda the way you do it , the irony cracks me up. Theres a long slow live version that has a whole different feel to it. Real tasty stuff , love it!
Had the pleasure of seeing MIss Shires last week at the Kilkenny Roots Fest in Ireland...........AWeSOME !!!
Beautiful and talented woman. Love!
i turned this tune on as i was falling asleep, and woke up to a dream about this melody...damn..thats never happened..moving melody here folks..lyrics are so true and edgy...
Great story in the lyrics.
You are a rare talent, thank you for sharing it with us.
love the feather
Hell, that's good.
I love this and you're so naturally beautiful missus Isbell 😊 I'm enjoying ISOLOUNGING so much, thank you to all. So special in these times 💋
Love the owl feathers. 😊

Great song, I can hear it over and over for a long trip to TEXAS. SXSW
This is really, really good.
Absolutely stunning. Just literally bought all of Amanda shires albums. Incredible voice and the lyrics are just beautiful. Can’t get enough.

Amanda is simply enchanting and rightfully so.
you are amazong
WOW!!... this song has been stuck in my head for days/weeks now. just had to come back and visit again. it's funny, you can scream, cry and yell as loud as you want to as long as there's a train that's louder. great song
SALUDOS DESDE BS A S ARGENTINA ....AMIGA A SHIRES.....MUCAS GRACIAS... ... C AMONNNNN!!!!
Love your voice,song and video Amanda,best wishes❤
Wow, Cody Shaw pointed me in Amanda Shires' direction. I'd love to catch her live some time. What talent!
Great Stuff
This is crushing. I am not sure you are acting. God, we need you in TATANKA. Respect and love to you, sister.
Jist discovered her today. Awesome.
I had the emense pleasure of seeing her at Rhythm and Roots this weekend, what a pleasure and what a doll.
Daaaaam, guuuurl, you are a real one!!!!! Fascinating, captivating and deep. I think Iove you
Bought it on ITunes as soon as I heard the last note!
Great song, you have a new fan :-D
Amanda Shires's albums West Coast Timbers and Carrying Lightning are absolute masterpieces!
I got to see her perform in a very intimate setting at an Art Gallery in my hometown of York, PA 10 years ago when she was age 29. The same year this video was shot!
She has been doing a lot of covers of pop songs of the past 1980s songs and I'm not really digging it. She is much more talented than that. And she has to get that lousy husband of hers off the stage. Every other video I see has to have him on stage with her and he's in the Forefront and they have her either back to the side or behind him. I don't see the big deal about the guy who be honest. But he is one lucky man! He should cherish Amanda every single second. While at the art gallery before her performance I got to meet her and she is nothing but a living doll and a lot of fun!
Amanda breaks "character" playfully a few times. So subtle but heartbreaking.
I am a real fan of her. Her voice,the way she sings,so sweet . I listen to her every morning. It makes feel good
This is a great video.
I first heard Amanda at the Blue Vine in Salisbury, NC, about a year ago. She is captivating, and this video just reinforces her appeal. There is not a bad track on the Carrying Lightning CD - Buy it.
Very personal and relevant right now. Despite it all, I will catch that train!! And will miss my Lil' Squa! With the feather in her hair in Texas.
I live in Arizona. There's a mountain here thats been called Squaw Peak for decades. Its been re-named to North Mountain bc Squaw is a demeaning word to call a Native woman
A fan since I saw her with Jason in Springfield MO
