I encourage everyone to indeed find out more about m ward. I myself am so glad norah jones had him touring with her otherwise I might not have ever discovered him
I love that it sounds like he's using old & dirty strings. As a guitarist there have been many times where I could feel and hear that grit of sliding my fingers over the old strings... a small touch that really hits home on that "lonesomeness".
amazing is an understatement...............................yet, i'm simply speechless with enchantment so i guess i would have not of said it much better. take care all
they appropriately drag the crap out of this. Production is lush and right on. The background textures really carry the dynamics of this tune. Beautifully done. I too thought Neil's version was it, and I still do, but this is a close 2nd.
The first time I heard this, I cringed, but I love Lucinda and downloaded it from iTunes. It really took me a couple of times listening to it to "get" it. Once you get your head out of your ass, forget about how it's "supposed to be sung", and actually listen to it, you will realize it's a brilliant interpretation of a classic. And at the end, he just sort of stands back and lets Lucinda carry it out. I love this version!! And now I want to know more about M Ward.
In the middle of this analysis the writer starts projecting on the reader by saying "you". I actually loved this from very first listen. I guess my head wasn't in my arse unable to hear? Jacinda can raise sensual out of sadness, quite the goddess!
@MrVATO37 funny thing is bro, i would normally say the same thing, but this song got me high without the aid of anything else. due to that, i've hit replay about 500 times. lol!!!
@chrislc11 Don Gibson had a hit with 'Oh, Lonesome Me' in 1958. He penned Patsy Cline's hit, 'Sweet Dreams' and the country standards, "I Can't Stop Loving You' and 'Sensuous Woman' .... a great and legendary country music songwriter. Ward does a great job of it, though, for me, Neil Young's version is the 'lonesomest' version of them all !

Mannnnnn....this song hard bro and sis... 🥇🥇🥇
who would dislike such a gentle and strong tune?
had to sign up just comment on these amazin artists...this song takes my breath away
Such a beautiful and elegant cover of Don Gibson's classic!! Neil Young's and this cover are my favourites so far!!
I cried and smiled all at the same time. I don't understand. What a beautiful song.
two amazing artists who just need more great material thats not a putdown but a fact
m ward doing a duet with my fave female singer, lucinda williams. close your eyes and let the song take you away. the strings are beautiful.
amazing is an understatement...............................yet, i'm simply speechless with enchantment so i guess i would have not of said it much better. take care all
each to their own - me, it makes me smile,
this is soul music...for the soul and by the soul...
wow never heard of this guy before but this version is powerful thanks for posting and merry Christmas to everyone
the Opening drifts through your mind, like Smoke drifting away from a chimney.
What a perfectly suited pair to do a duo. Love it
My new winter music. This, and let's dance.
Adoro M. Ward

An old song, with a sweet twist.
as you turn alone between two cool sheets.

I need a bottle of Jack and some pot, then listen to this song again. Good fucking shit here man. Awesome.
Until a few moments ago, I was convinced that Neil Young's version was best..but this is just breathtakingly achingly beautiful
reminds me of a male mazzy star :)
good night
Wow, this is really good music! Thanks to Paul and Ian from The Vampire Diaries for mentioning how good this guy's music is;)
Nice redo. I wonder though if he is ready to do a duet with the fabulous Lady Gaga?

Melo Faceless Takes one to know one, sugar. Now come over here and sit on Daddys lap.

Then she thinks the same!
Result : 2 lonesome souls!
u should hear blue bayou duet with norah jones...oh that shit;ll take u away into outer space
I love m. ward. I particularly like the Transfiguration of Vincent. But I prefer Neil Young's version of this particular song.
M Ward's brilliance in re-interpreting is nonpareil. Talk about a niche.
I thought it was Dusty springfield singing. Then i recalled she was a bit dead.
M.ward is my 2nd favorite musician without a doubt. I hate this damn song
@Myro45 The lyrics and the basic melody are the same. What are you talking about?
wow. i had no idea he covered this song. amazing. think i like the neil young version better though
Galanta
love this !..but Neil Young owns this song
At 1:48, is that singing?
Yes
I'm a huge Neil Young fan. If you're going to cover a great song reinvent it. Mission accomplished.
This on 33rpm lmao
lol
ah, but sir, it seems as if you are the one who has shared his ignorance.
Love "The first time I ran away" - really do not like this.
Thank you for your opinion
* *Yawn* *
THE worst thing I have ever heard. Loved his version of Rave On. This is PAINFUL to listen to !!!
ewd67 haha can’t be that bad!
