What an amazing talent so much inventivity and twist in her songs, you'll never know what you gonna get like say Forrest but for sure it's always a good surprise
I heard Madison play this song live this summer, with just her guitar as accompaniment, and I loved it then- but this full band version is AWESOME! I'm so grateful to Live from Here for introducing me to this amazing songwriter...
This is studio quality sound. Kudos to the crew and to the band! Madison is certainly a talented musician/composer/ performer. Chris T. is a shrewd judge of talent, this woman should be a star.
Hm... She definitely tuned the lower strings down per, say, at least a half note or so? Idk, I myself, am not really into notes, but my experience says, that some strings are just tuned down a bit, then she plays it muted with her right palm, also she uses her left thumb, what I really like 😃 I hope, I could help a little bit..
It always shows up at your door When you least expect it to Old wounds from your youth Re-introduce themselves to you Do your best impression of yourself A watered down version of the way it felt To be unrecognized, misunderstood, and spelled out In plain letters In plain letters The camera's always on the wrong side of the glass Is there ever a flattering angle of the facts? Well do your best impression of yourself A box within a box in a storage cell Those who tell you what you are, poke an insect in a jar And put it on your name tag In plain letters How does it look when it dries in pen? On your eyes, on your heart, on your emptiness Well you can't be surprised by what you've come expect I hope you find a weakness that you're stronger than I hope you find a weakness that you're stronger than You've got a case of winter that no one's ever seen Is that a new bandage on your knees? Did anybody ask you what was wrong? Or did they stare at you strange when you asked where you belonged? You know you can't defeat it, so you run out to greet it But it looks like a stop sign In plain letters In plain letters How does it look when it dries it in pen? On your eyes, on your heart, on your emptiness Well you can't be surprised by what you've come expect I hope you find a weakness that you're stronger than I hope you find a weakness that you're stronger than I hope you find a weakness that you're- Stronger than It's an illiterate feeling and a slow healing Your world spins like a planet on your ceiling And I wish it was enough to convince you of yourself But it can't be said in- In plain letters In plain letters In plain letters
Madison Cunningham has raised the bar so high, she is untouchable. Joni+Beatles in this one. Wow.
The guitar part is crazy complex.
Can she write a bad song? Good gracious she’s amazing!

Ms. Cunningham has such an amazing gift to compose.
What a compelling groove! ...and those lyrics!
The playful theatricality of her compositions is both delightful and engaging. I am extremely impressed.
She's brilliant and so deep yet so young.

So great to hear Madison on the show again...but how great is this band????? 😲

"is" a star - in my universe.
Just heard this Sunday on NPR. Was floored by it.
さすがマディソンカミンガム！サビの演奏最高！
'Ooh!' says I, a third time.
what a delightful comment
I can't figure out that guitar intro at all. How is she doing that?
it's a year later and I still can't make out the lower notes. help

It always shows up at your door
When you least expect it to
Old wounds from your youth
Re-introduce themselves to you
Do your best impression of yourself
A watered down version of the way it felt
To be unrecognized, misunderstood, and spelled out
In plain letters
In plain letters
The camera's always on the wrong side of the glass
Is there ever a flattering angle of the facts?
Well do your best impression of yourself
A box within a box in a storage cell
Those who tell you what you are, poke an insect in a jar
And put it on your name tag
In plain letters
How does it look when it dries in pen?
On your eyes, on your heart, on your emptiness
Well you can't be surprised by what you've come expect
I hope you find a weakness that you're stronger than
I hope you find a weakness that you're stronger than
You've got a case of winter that no one's ever seen
Is that a new bandage on your knees?
Did anybody ask you what was wrong?
Or did they stare at you strange when you asked where you belonged?
You know you can't defeat it, so you run out to greet it
But it looks like a stop sign
In plain letters
In plain letters
How does it look when it dries it in pen?
On your eyes, on your heart, on your emptiness
Well you can't be surprised by what you've come expect
I hope you find a weakness that you're stronger than
I hope you find a weakness that you're stronger than
I hope you find a weakness that you're-
Stronger than
It's an illiterate feeling and a slow healing
Your world spins like a planet on your ceiling
And I wish it was enough to convince you of yourself
But it can't be said in-
In plain letters
In plain letters
In plain letters
Danke für die Lyrics
Danke für die sensationellen Lyrics!
I wish the camerawork was this good for her performance of beauty into cliches on live from here.
Somebody put that weirdo on the Mandolin in jail.
Madison & Glaspy coming from the same school of thought/approach
