A HUMAN TOUCH
You can call it a decision
I say it's how we're made
There's no point in shouting from your island
Proclaiming only Jesus saves
There will always be suffering
There will always be pain
But because of it there will always be love
And love we know it will remain
Everybody gets lonely
Feel like it's all too much
Reaching out for some connection
Or maybe just their own reflection
Not everybody finds it
Not like the two of us
Sometimes all anybody needs is a human touch
Everybody wants a holiday
Everybody wants to feel the sun
Get outside and run around
Live like they're forever young
Everybody wants to be beautiful
And live life their own way
No one ever wants to let it go
No matter what they do or say
Everybody gets lonely
Feel like it's all too much
Reaching out for some connection
Or maybe it's just their own reflection
Not everybody finds it
Not like the two of us
Sometimes all anybody needs is a human touch
Written by Steve McEwan, Leslie Mendelson, and Jackson Browne

I count myself lucky to have found Jackson Browne's music since the early 70s as a child. Jackson, THANK YOU for such meaningful music oftentimes in such an unmeaningful world. You get better and more important with age. Our hearts are better because of you.
i have a hard time listenong to this song without crying ... so poignant
Perhaps you should cry for the women he hit
What the .....are you talking about?
This is the Highlight of this difficult year. Thanks to these two brilliant voices and the sensible tones by the awesome band. Still the one - Never stop making music, Mr Browne 🎼
Just so incredibly beautiful and on point in this distressing world of such sadness. Your music and your humanity has filled my life for over 45 years Jackson. Eternally grateful. ❤️🙏
There is still love in this world, just not on TV.
I am also Eternally Grateful!!! It really is incredible. I go way back as a fan too. As always, perfection.🧡
Beautiful duet …. Thank you Leslie Mendelson and Jackson Browne and your band. ❤️
Hi lili

Hey Richard, thinking of your dear friend; may the beautiful memories he left BRING YOU PEACE.🌻☮🌻
Very sweet Jackson nice Duet love Jackson He is never Running on EMpty he A always has Something To give ♥️💋
Mercy Jackson Browne! That is wonderful, you are correct, Leslie has a wonderful voice and ya'll did spectacular job performing and writing. Well done
Hey dear, where are you from?
You do realise that this is from a 1977 LP?
A touch can heal & transform.
Music has the same power.
Together it is magical.
Thank you.
Hi dear
Hey dear, where are you from?
A future classic for our time of confusion.
This song kept my heart healthy and my mind still while I was in prison. It kept me alive quite honestly.
They sound great together.
Beatiful, wonderful, fantastic... GREAT! Thank You Mr. Jackson Browne and Leslie Mendelson.
Jackson, I'm working toward your Kansas City event. Thankfully, I cry quietly. But, I cheer Loud. Thank you for the moonlit mountaintops you aspire me to reach toward. This song is a jewel for us all. Not everyone does find it. Those are the hardest poems to write. Hope the one thing we need.
Hello Diana. I love this song, it was one of my best. How is life treating you?
Incredible song. Spain
What a fantastic performance. I love this song. It touches the heart. We all need a human touch xoxoxo
Hi Gloria
Hello sunshine
Hey dear, where are you from?
Easily one of the best songs I’ve heard in the past 10 years.
Goosebumps......
Jackson has always been able to freeze frame a moment of time, painting with emotion & coloured with heart this song captures what's most important in life to find the person who you can bare your sole too & know that they will love you with out judgement ... simply amazing!
Hello Charlie. I love this song, it was one of my best. How is life treating you?
Like a photograph found in a drawer… frozen as Kodak did:
Looking through some photographs
I found inside a drawer
I was taken by a photograph of you
There were one or two I know that
You would have liked a little more
But they didn't show your spirit quite as true
You were turning 'round to see who was behind you
And I took your childish laughter by surprise
And at the moment that my camera happened to find you
There was just a trace of sorrow in your eyes
Wow, Leslie is so courageous. Standing up there singing on live TV with one of the greatest ever...very cool..absolutely gorgeous song...and Leslie you are so beautiful. I could not wait to watch this show last nite...wonderful show..through out...and that Our Lady Of The Well at the end just blew me away..I was like... is this really happening? .....
he is gonna close this show with our lady of the well... Wait a minute hold the phone ...he never plays that song. .. I was stunned... watching and listening to that at 12:30 in the morning...OMG.... .love you Jackson love your band... you have the heart of a lion.....god bless you...and thank you....and thank you PBS and ACL...
Beautiful harmonies. Beautiful song!💕🎼😃
Thanks dear how you doing
Lovely
Hi Cynthia
Hello how are you doing
His music puts you in a trance of relaxation and gives you a mind comfort. It is such a blessing he gives his fans. Thank you for all the years you have given.
Jackson’s lyrics are built upon imagination based on lived experience. I think that’s why he’s resonated so much in my own life.
Beautiful underrated song, perfect and touching performance. So good to see my musical heroes playing live again and giving us that human touch.
The first time I ever heard this song was live at Lake Tahoe a few years ago. They performed it beautifully under a memorable moon and sky. I've probably seen Jackson Browne more than a dozen times in 6 different states and this was one of the all-time highlights.
Sounds like pure biss!✨🥰
Conciser yourself lucky! 😊
Wow 🤩
JB you never disappoint us,especially with this beautiful duet with the talented LM - superb as ever
Agreed.😊
Graham, his voice is as good and strong as in his younger years. When I listen to him sing, it takes me back to my younger years.
@@scottielover5415 Scottie, I agree with you. I am 73 and have been listening to him and his albums since the early 1970s
Thanks to all for such a great performance.
Beautiful ❤️🎶❤️🙏🔥🔥👏👏🎼🤗❣️
Hey Jacqueline

Hi Linda
The beauty and significance of this song guts me at an age when I delude myself into thinking I am impervious to being this moved by a single piece of music. But this is a Jackson Browne (McEwan/Mendelson) composition after all. Silly me.
Feedback appreciated🚀

Hi Alice
Hello how are you doing
Leslie, your voice has grown & matured since Your mother told me about your talent and I listened to an early video of yours. Love this song. Perfection.💗
And with Jackson Browne! I have been listening to his music for 40+ years.😊👍💕. The world needs music like this now.
Such a beautiful song. Her voice reminds me of Shawn Colvin.
Hi Amy
Hello how are you doing
Hey dear, where are you from?
Of your many collaborations, IMO this version of this truly beautiful song you and Leslie wrote might well be your best to date. And Greg’s break… sublime! Thanks for posting!
Jackson Browne, since Dr. My Eyes . You have been a constant inspiration in your music. The Running On Empty Album i wore out the grooves on.
All The Way Down To Shaky Town!
Sums up the last couple years hug your loved ones cause you never know when your never going to get to again
This September I hope I get to hear both of you sing this song...makes my hairs stand up...I just love this song...Humam Touch...✌️💖💖💖😇💛💛💛🐺✨✨✨
Hello 👋, dear how are you doing?
Ok, I listened to this 3 or 4 days ago.... two days ago I woke up with this going in my head, today when I charged the phone, boom here it is... so of course I had to re-listen to this one... it's a beautiful song.
It's a tear jerker, but one of the best.
During these times such lyrics have special relevance together with the haunting melodies of Jackson Browne… “sometimes all we need is a human touch “…
So lovely ❤
Hi
One of my all time favorites! You make a great team. Thanks so much for sharing your talents!
Hi Patricia
Thank you Jackson Browne for all the music you’ve made for us and thank you for this set at ACL. You and I share a birthday and Ive seen you in concert three times before which were all wonderful. This one is something special I think. You were ever generous with your excellent band and they returned the favor with performances to remember. Late for The Sky We are.
Great pair -- in writing music-- - 🎶🎸❤️🎉--‘- beautiful music 🎶-- keep tapping my heart ❤️
Hello
Excellent✌
Awesome rendition of the song. Marvelous duet .Peaceful. Thank you. 💐🙋♂️🙋♀️🎄❤🎅🌞
The most important in life is Human Touch, a chance to interact with somebody. Then u will know the true meaning of life.
yes..outstanding....greetings from BARCELONA.
I love Jackson Brown he has such a tender heart So protective I have never met another man that could be as wonderful Jackson Browne. Its The soul the love the kindness the gentleness that he puts in his music the words the dance across people's souls this is what brings his music magic to peoples hearts and can bring them tears of joy, tears of connection, And wanting to reach out to connect to other people even if it's just momentary , All my life I watched my parents Humanitarian aid And I spent my life as a child trying to follow in that footstep But a single person does not have that voice not Jackson Brown's voice that goes into someone's soul that reaches their hearts on a deeper level than words mere words can ever Pierce. And bring to the surface The compassion that truly is hiding in other people's hearts because it is true all we need is a human touch

Hi Katherine
@@Rogerwaters668 I'm laughing~i couldn't help myself from saying hi back even tho i know you can't really be Jackson Brown BUT the other strange thing that caught my eye was you actually spelled my first name correctly when this Goggle site or You Tube has it wrong.

Achingly beautiful; tender & moving.
This duet and the text leaves me speechless every time I listen to it. Leslie Mendelsohn and Jackson Browne achieve pure magic here - a force they release into our world that will hopefully touch others as powerfully and deeply as it has touched me.
Beautiful❤️🎶
Hello Kathy. I love this song, it was one of my best. How is life treating you?

I have heard it said, and totally agree, more universal than it's original purpose in support of the film. Absolutely lovely.
I still can not get through this song with our becoming emotional ❤ it's that powerful
Thank you Leslie and Jackson for a lovely, touching song.
Beautiful song.
Heard it first yesterday. Fell in love instantly
Wow, i,m 73 and been listening to this song for some time now and just have to comment, I remember the 80's oh so vividly, with the ravages of AIDS, and now given our recent history with Covid, not unfamiliar circumstances. What a beautiful song shining light on life, sung by 2 beautiful people. I shed a tear every time I listen to it.
Sound waves ‘n soulful vibes that reach right to the core of one’s being. ❤
One of the most beautiful duets written and performed by two geniuses. HOw gifted they are and what a gift to be alive at the time they are singing. God bless you both! A fan from Scotland who has heard Jackson for many many years now. A prophet of our times and Lesley is elfish in her eternal soulful voice. Sheer bliss
Marvelous song ..a dreaming song …
Leslie Mendelson, wise choice. Lots of soul. Thanks Jackson
One of the best musicians
Stunning song, beautifully sung .. stopped me in my tracks ....
The release of a new Jackson Browne album has been on the horizon for about eighteen months and I had seen the two releases prior to the release of Cleveland Heart video and couldn't wait for new album to come out. When it appeared on TH-cam I played it straight away, having ordered the CD on pre order months previous, but it had been delayed. Anyway had it playing on the TV in the living room while I pottered about doing chores. I was in the kitchen when the fourth track came on and I stopped in my tracks, what the fuck's happened ? There's a female vocal. I thought something had gone wrong on TH-cam and it had jumped into something else. So headed for living room to check and sure enough it was still showing a Jackson Browne track. Strange I thought, until his vocal came in on the second verse. Absolutely love the song. The young lady has an amazing voice, and they work well together. I keep meaning to check her out on TH-cam but haven't got around to it yet. Still trying to get into Pheobe Bridgers and that's tough.
Okay I just broke down and cried I couldn't hold it in! What a beautiful song!
Me too. I really didn't see it coming either.
