First time I heard of Courtney was through her touring with Jimmy Eat World for a year.....when I heard her backing vocals on their tour and the Invented album, I was amazed. This performance makes me even more amazed at how amazing she is vocally and also how talented she really is.
Table for one - lyrics I've got no one i'm waiting on I just pulled into town an hour ago From the streets of Houston To this diner in Ohio I'm just a'waiting for the bar to open 'Cause me, I'm a little bit lonely A little bit stoned And I'm ready to go home You don't want to be like me This life it ain't free Always chained to when I leave Been dancing with strangers Sleeping in the van when the show's over I've been driving till I get tired Found peace in the redwoods Lost it 20 miles later There is no telling which way this road bends Been wondering how you've been Hoping things have gotten better Hope you finally settle down in Washington 'Cause me... ... 'Cause me...
Saw her solo acoustic a couple of months ago. This version is great with the guitar. but either way the lines "a little bit lonely,a little bit stoned' get me every time.
First heard this Courtney Marie on the Jools Holland programme here in the UK. Check it out for the great pedal steel guitar that accompanies the song there (it's a wonderful and different sound, but I think right here is the stonger version - love that powerful Gibson ES sound too.)

This is going to sound slightly bonkers but she reminds me of Mark Lanegan. Obviously she neither looks nor sounds anything like Lanegan but what I mean is they are similar in the way their voices just grab you in an almost tangible way and in the integrity and honesty of their songs. Does that make sense.
Truly love this woman's music. Lyrics, voice, style. All of it.
quite simply a stone cold masterpiece
Gawd how this girl can sing I just love Courtney Marie Andrews. Great show!
O got sold to this band in the first 15 seconds. Those lyrics are pretty beautiful.
She is my new favourite thing.

💗. Don’t tell anyone!
Even Bob Harris on BBC Radio 2!! Talking 'bout this gal!
Table for one - lyrics
I've got no one i'm waiting on
I just pulled into town an hour ago
From the streets of Houston
To this diner in Ohio
I'm just a'waiting for the bar to open
'Cause me, I'm a little bit lonely
A little bit stoned
And I'm ready to go home
You don't want to be like me
This life it ain't free
Always chained to when I leave
Been dancing with strangers
Sleeping in the van when the show's over
I've been driving till I get tired
Found peace in the redwoods
Lost it 20 miles later
There is no telling which way this road bends
Been wondering how you've been
Hoping things have gotten better
Hope you finally settle down in Washington
'Cause me...
...
'Cause me...
Alan Coates thanks...
Alan Coates Thank you
Alan Coates thank you for this...
Again lol..

So simple which makes it so beautiful and feeling the feels like I'm right there in the pub gotta love that country vibe 🎸🎤🎵🎼🎼🎧🎶🎶
Love this. Reminds me of Townes.
mixed with a bit of Linda Ronstadt
Lovely,mind swims in honey of this beautiful voice
Thanks Starlord. Always nice to discover great talent.
Oh god, this breaks me up every time I hear it!
Around one per cent negative thumbs down is incredible. Beautiful song and beautiful music, or there are just a lot of lonely people around.
Wow. This song needs to be in the closing credits of a Scorsese movie.
Wonderful, my kind of music this. The best I've listen to lately since Sivert Høyem
Courtney, there will always be a free seat at my table!
a lovely soulful voice and a coruscating song.
Really fresh !
very godd voice, music, harmony. Like very much. Please continue to make so good music
Beautiful 😊 come to Scotland!!
Amazing and beautiful.
Saw her solo acoustic a couple of months ago. This version is great with the guitar. but either way the lines "a little bit lonely,a little bit stoned' get me every time.

Amen
Simplemente hermoso.
song to ear
Lovely
Hoje dia 27/01 e acabo de conhecer essa canção que mudou o meu dia muito pra melhor!
This is brilliant!! Very reminiscent of the late Eva Cassidy.
Eva was a great singer yes…but this woman is a brilliant songwriter to boot! Eva..we miss you!
❤️❤️❤️
Soul girl 👍Dream Big 👍Love Life 👏👏✌🏻
Check out the Jules ?Holland version with pedal steel guitar, amazing stuff, enjoy, Ireland.
Paroles 💗💕💗💗
Je n'ai personne que j'attends
I've got no one i'm waiting on
Je viens d'arriver en ville il y a une heure
I just pulled into town an hour ago
Depuis les lignes droites de Houston
From the straights of Houston
À ce restaurant dans l'Ohio
To this diner in Ohio
J'attends juste que le bar ouvre
I'm just waiting for the bar to open
Parce que je suis un peu seul
Cause I'm a little bit lonely
Un peu lapidé
A little bit stoned
Et je suis prêt à rentrer à la maison
And I'm ready to go home
Tu ne veux pas être comme moi
You don't want to be like me
Cette vie n'est pas gratuite
This life it ain't free
Toujours enchaîné quand je pars
Always chained to when I leave
J'ai dansé avec des inconnus
Been dancing with strangers
Dormir dans le van quand les spectacles se terminent
Sleeping in the van when the shows over
J'ai conduit jusqu'à ce que je sois fatigué
I've been driving till I get tired
Trouvé la paix dans les séquoias
Found peace in the redwoods
Je l'ai perdu 20 milles plus tard
Lost it 20 miles later
On ne sait pas dans quel sens cette route tourne
There is no telling which way this road bends
Je me demandais comment tu allais
Been wondering how you've been
En espérant que les choses se soient améliorées
Hoping things have gotten better
J'espère que tu t'installeras enfin à Washington
Hope you finally settle down in Washington
Parce que je suis un peu seul
Cause I'm a little bit lonely
Un peu lapidé
A little bit stoned
Et je suis prêt à rentrer à la maison
And I'm ready to go home
Tu ne veux pas être comme moi
You don't want to be like me
Cette vie n'est pas gratuite
This life it ain't free
Toujours enchaîné quand je pars
Always chained to when I leave
Parce que je suis un peu seul
Cause I'm a little bit lonely
Un peu lapidé
A little bit stoned
Et je suis prêt à rentrer à la maison
And I'm ready to go home
Tu ne veux pas être comme moi
You don't want to be like me
Cette vie n'est pas gratuite
This life it ain't free
love your song's. if you write a song table for two. can i sit with you. brilliant songs when you back in the uk.
Good song Amity!
very good. better than shitty pop country out today.
Chris Pratt sent me here .Good song!
She sings from the heart. A true artist! Can't listening to her.
Modern day Linda Ronstadt, anyone agree ??? 😊
😊
💕
sad...nice. good sound.

Wonder who the 3 tone deaf people were who voted this down?
7 thumbs now: madness!
I really like her talent, but it's quite derivative of the incomparable Emmylou Harris.
I don't see that at all.
Very unique, great voice, and writer,not at all like Emmylou, who wrote very little early on. Courtney is a poet!
Why compare ? Enjoy both !!!
