    Will never forget 1989, watching my little 10" tv in my college dorm watching Tracy Chapman perform her song live on the grammys, just her and a guitar. Great songs live forever. Good job on your version LC.

      Both make me cry. They remind me of my grandma. I miss her so much. We use to talk every day sending each other music to listen to. She’d always send Fleetwood Mac and Tracy’s songs. I wish I could send this to her.

      the song is about her dad being an alcoholic and her mom leaving.
      “See, my old man's got a problem
      He live with the bottle, that's the way it is
      He says his body's too old for working
      His body's too young to look like his
      My mama went off and left him
      She wanted more from life than he could give
      I said somebody's got to take care of him
      So I quit school and that's what I did”

      Although he should've changed the word girl to guy when he said checkout girl. Because he has such a deep manly voice and can't really work as a checkout girl, lol. It ruined it for me.

    First time I heard Mr. Combs’ remake. Damn he a great job! I always be partial to Ms. Chapman’s original, but Luke gave a nice country spin on this classic! Well Done Luke!
