I think Kathleen is great- her voice, her music, her look. Been hearing her stuff all the time on satellite radio without knowing too much about her. She definitely has her own song style but it wouldn't surprise me if she or some of the band were admirers of Tom Petty. There is a hint of it in this song. That's ok. Great freaking job. Gets my foot tapping without even trying. Hope she doesn't quit music as she apparently has suggested here and there.
"I've got ways to make you crazy, wear all things you always wanted me to, I 've got ways to make you run, and my Daddy's comin' for you . " Her voice , topped with John Doe's cameo , make this one of my favorite videos ever.
Just heard this on World Cafe (NPR) and had to look it up. I was a little bit dreading that I would find out that it's Lucinda Williams (who I've vowed never to listen to again), so I am especially delighted to find that I have a whole new singer to discover and enjoy. Life is good.
Did anybody see Kathleen on Austin City Limits? I got it on an old Tivo and don't have a DVD burner to get it off. It was a great set and the audio and vid is great too. I would download it to YT if I could get it.
Alt-Country (whatever that is) at its' best. A video featuring the daughter of the founder of the genre, Graham Parsons and the legendary John Doe. I love the un-definable "Alt-country" style more than anything.
THIS Song must make us "Hopefuls" ASK: "How does COLIN CRIPPS respond to This Tune?" We've Just GOT TO WONDER... Even though we likely don't "have a Chance"....
Back To Me - Kathleen Edwards I've got ways to make you sorry Start my life with someone else I've got ways to make you fall Tell you all the things that I lied about I've got ways to make you mad Just laughing at the girl sittin' on your lap I've got ways to make you sing my songs The ones I ain't written yet [Chorus] I've got plots you've never seen I've got moves I've never used I've got ways to make you come back to me I've got ways to make you strange Drug you up and drag you home I've got ways to track you down In all of the places you like to go I've got ways to make you crazy Wear all the things you always wanted me to I've got ways to make you run And my daddy is coming for you [Chorus] I've got ways to make you hear me Just by whispering your name I've got ways to make you think You'll never be happy again I've got ways to make you see I'm so much better than before I've got ways to make you swear You won't want your old life anymore [Chorus] [Chorus] Back to me Back to me
Great song, yep! I'm a huge Petty fan and the similarities hadn't hit me over the head till I read this but now they surely do...they should make a duet recording.
I love how she is so confident. I think most girls have moves that their guys have never seen. Spooky. She's too good for him anyway - makes me wonder why she hasn't just got over him, but glad we got the song out of the deal. ;) Desert Island: Disc 1
When I first saw this video I was working at Towne Crier Steakhouse and I worked with a girl I thought was Kathleen Edwards but it turned out I was wrong but she still has the moves.
if this didnt make it to country stations, i am thinking the stations are controlled and bought off... this girl is lovely.....if this song was pla7yed on KRTY it would KiLL even today in 2013...ways to make you coooome back to me.................
I absolutely adore Kathleen Edwards, but Lucinda Williams is a genius at what she does. No need to put down great musicians in an attempt to prove your point.
Today's music is garbage compared to this. Everything is all about swearing, violence, drugs, and skimpyness. This is just good quality, positive music.
well nancy ur wrong. outlaw country has real new country and 4 letter words are included because its real life. anytbody bitchin about words that some moron years ago declared cuss words, u are living by his rules. fck u and society. outlawsrule
Great artist great song but one thing I don't get in the video story line... did she get herself pulled over in order to give cheating pics of the guy and her to the guys wife just to piss her off? Nice way to ruin someone's day in hopes that it will draw the guy back to her I'm sort of confused
OK here is a real alternative country-pop musician. But of course mega-marketed plastic autotuned idols like Taylor Swift get all the attention. The public listens to pushed plastic and buys what they are told to. Lemmings.
too bad the crapfest known as mtv/vh1 wont allow her to become as huge here as her talent dictates she should be see, she can actually play an instrument... the death-nell for popularity nowadays
eek a ref to edie brickell, uhmm edie cant sing, maybe half note are on, but wtvr, it's ok when youre super stoned....zzzzz...this woman is talented.....just didnt get lucky.
This song was a freebie on iTunes back in the day. She also opened for Aimee Mann at the concert I saw in Portland Oregon. Glad I found this video!
Favourite Kathleen Edwards song. Even better live...
Easily my favorite Kathleen Song. Very aggressive.

Thats Polly Parsons as the cop
I after 17 years I STILL sing this song to myself!!!
Ballsy country rock in the same vein as Lucinda Williams' "Changed The Locks."
What more do you need?A great looking woman who can actually play guitar ,and a tune that kicks ass!Kathleen rocks!!!
And Canadian too. Ticks every box .🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Found this on Republic of Doyle, this type of music is right up my alley...awesome song, awesome artist.

Me also..i liked the song right after it but dont know the name..it was a girl singing sounded like Stevie Nicks..do you know the song?
wahats the matter there nancy, Lucinda hit home too hard? lol
Kathleen is a Canadian wonder
Excellent albums, one damn fine coffee shop and Kitty nails it every time
STILL LOVIN THIS SONG!!!
Happy Birthday, Kathleen Edwards, and here's to many more happy birthdays.
Kathleen Edwards kicks ass and I am so grateful for it. Love me some Kathleen Edwards. Keep doing what you're doing and share it with us. Thanks.
Come back Kathleen!
Did anybody see Kathleen on Austin City Limits? I got it on an old Tivo and don't have a DVD burner to get it off. It was a great set and the audio and vid is great too. I would download it to YT if I could get it.
That show was a scorcher!
Just heard her for the first time on a college radio station in New York. She really is a great combo of country and rock.
Alt-Country (whatever that is) at its' best. A video featuring the daughter of the founder of the genre, Graham Parsons and the legendary John Doe. I love the un-definable "Alt-country" style more than anything.
SuperBuzz71 Alt County can also be described as County that doesn't suck. That cuts out about 95% of the genre.
Kathleen Edwards is awesome! Wish I could see her in concert.
THIS Song must make us "Hopefuls" ASK:
"How does COLIN CRIPPS respond to This Tune?"
We've Just GOT TO WONDER...
Even though we likely don't "have a Chance"....
Thank you Kathleen💪🏼
Diggin' this! Love it.
Great lyrics
DAMN, this rocks!!!
Back To Me - Kathleen Edwards
I've got ways to make you sorry
Start my life with someone else
I've got ways to make you fall
Tell you all the things that I lied about
I've got ways to make you mad
Just laughing at the girl sittin' on your lap
I've got ways to make you sing my songs
The ones I ain't written yet
[Chorus]
I've got plots you've never seen
I've got moves I've never used
I've got ways to make you come back to me
I've got ways to make you strange
Drug you up and drag you home
I've got ways to track you down
In all of the places you like to go
I've got ways to make you crazy
Wear all the things you always wanted me to
I've got ways to make you run
And my daddy is coming for you
[Chorus]
I've got ways to make you hear me
Just by whispering your name
I've got ways to make you think
You'll never be happy again
I've got ways to make you see
I'm so much better than before
I've got ways to make you swear
You won't want your old life anymore
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Back to me
Back to me
Great video, go Kathleen!
Kicking ass indeed!
I think this is best song of the albums she has done. I wish there was more of her.
Saw her open for Bon Iver last night- SO SO SO good!
Great song, Kathleen ! From Argentine.
Great song, yep! I'm a huge Petty fan and the similarities hadn't hit me over the head till I read this but now they surely do...they should make a duet recording.
Fun song, I enjoyed it.
great cd
Thanks for explaining that! I couldn't figure out if I should know an "Officer Parsons."
this is a rocking and rollicking good time!!!
Love it
She's got ways,
to be the next big thing!
How many of them love Kathleen Edwards
Definitely Me.
Where is that truck? Is it for sale? I love Kathleen but I really love that truck
I love how she is so confident. I think most girls have moves that their guys have never seen. Spooky. She's too good for him anyway - makes me wonder why she hasn't just got over him, but glad we got the song out of the deal. ;) Desert Island: Disc 1
he is a moron. There are ways to handle chicks like that..matter of fact, they like the handling even more..lol
WOW, Wow, XO, dtf *!*
When I first saw this video I was working at Towne Crier Steakhouse and I worked with a girl I thought was Kathleen Edwards but it turned out I was wrong but she still has the moves.
And she's got ways to sing like she owns it.
WOW! what a woman.
If John Doe's old band X would put out another album. That would be the icing on the cake.
She couldn't make me come back to her because I would never leave.
if this didnt make it to country stations, i am thinking the stations are controlled and bought off... this girl is lovely.....if this song was pla7yed on KRTY it would KiLL even today in 2013...ways to make you coooome back to me.................
D200 Dodge truck is so cool. But ya had to go and mount some Ford mirrors on it and aaahhh
when did this happen?
American folk music
For those who don't know - the other great Canadian singer/songwriter of our time - old stuff....
#dj_michaelholloway
Reminds me of a Eddie Brickell with a hard Cutting edge
Country, through Rock to Pop and Advertising.
OLD Kathleen Edwards. "I've got moves I've never used."
#dj_michaelholloway
I definitely would.
❤❤❤
i am dumbfounded this woman isnt on the radddio or the charts..she is beautiful and fking good singer
Yep
"Good ole John Doe.." -D. Boon
@mathgeek 37- yes there is; a girl with a bass.
great songwriter, awesome music, plus she's so insanely hot in every video. love her music.
She is like the true Taylor Swift
What the fuck? Taylor Swift doesn't even deserve to be mentioned in the same breath. Psuedo plastic music maker for the deadened masses.
This is the sexiest song ever.
And, that is a great old Dodge she's driving.
1963 Unibody!! Heck yeah!!
I would write bad checks for this woman.
It sounds like Kathleen Edwards,"Back to Me"
Reminds me of a Edie Brickell with a hard Cutting edge
Has a Tom Petty feel to it, cool song.
Lucinda Williams heritage
Aight grrrl
Sounds like Edie Brickell with a nice hard edge
This could easily been a heartbreakers song. Tom Petty and Kathleen are equal on this one.
Does she have other songs that sound like this?
John Doe
Come to ButHead
It's interesting how a woman with as sweet of a voice as hers can sing such a sinister song like this!
Mistertbones That's the sweet, sweet trap my friend :-)
I absolutely adore Kathleen Edwards, but Lucinda Williams is a genius at what she does. No need to put down great musicians in an attempt to prove your point.
@mathgeek37 a girl on drums (isolde lasoen)
Love this song, just annoyed with youtube.
Today's music is garbage compared to this. Everything is all about swearing, violence, drugs, and skimpyness. This is just good quality, positive music.
well nancy ur wrong. outlaw country has real new country and 4 letter words are included because its real life. anytbody bitchin about words that some moron years ago declared cuss words, u are living by his rules. fck u and society. outlawsrule
20 people were never wanted back
24 seconds, Sing the songs she hasn't written yet, wow.
@mathgeek37 maybe, just, girl without cloths
sounds like Lucinda williams' Cant let go
Didn't Tom Petty write this one? :-)
poor girl cant write music w/o being pinned down to her most recent relationship. She stands alone in my ears.
sheryl crowe esque
Canadian chicks make the best breakup songs. Something in the water maybe?
As good as any John Hiatt song. Compliments don't come any higher than that.
Great artist great song but one thing I don't get in the video story line... did she get herself pulled over in order to give cheating pics of the guy and her to the guys wife just to piss her off? Nice way to ruin someone's day in hopes that it will draw the guy back to her I'm sort of confused
marry me yestersay
bon iver opener? really
The only thing she has... ( in any case, not the music...)
must need better mgmt,pretty woman with a lot of talent
OK here is a real alternative country-pop musician. But of course mega-marketed plastic autotuned idols like Taylor Swift get all the attention. The public listens to pushed plastic and buys what they are told to. Lemmings.
Is it just me or is that totally the Corner Gas gas station?
I'm knotty your boyfriend yeyti
Creepy stalker girl song.
Justin Vernons girlfriend!
too bad the crapfest known as mtv/vh1 wont allow her to become as huge here as her talent dictates she should be
see, she can actually play an instrument... the death-nell for popularity nowadays
most annoying playlist has a commercial between every song.
Great rythm, instruments and voice… but the lyrics are too toxic and possessive 😱
she's a redhead irish girl..expect different? lol
eek a ref to edie brickell, uhmm edie cant sing, maybe half note are on, but wtvr, it's ok when youre super stoned....zzzzz...this woman is talented.....just didnt get lucky.
Cringey bc the old dude
