I'm a 60 year old woman, and it amazes me that Emmylou Harris has gotten more beautiful as she ages. And her voice and style....just beautiful

As Willie Nelson said there are two kinds of men, those who are in love with Emmylou Harris and those who’ve never meet her

Happy 'Would Be' 80th Birthday to Townes Van Zandt. We love and miss you here. Still listening to your words in 2024. Thank you, Emmy Lou, for the finest cover of this amazing song. Much love and respect to you.

Every time I hear her sing it takes me back to a better time and place.

I never thought I would find anyone who could sing Pancho and Lefty better than Willy and Merle, but I must admit I just love Emmy Lou.

Willie and Merle had the most commercial success with this song, but Emmylou’s version is the most beautiful and poignant. Pure magic.

"There are only two kinds of men in the world: those that are in love with Emmy Lou and those that haven't met her yet." Willy Nelson.

This recording is commonly known as one of the finest recordings ever made. Every sound is crisp and clear, near perfection.

Emmy Lou is The Best, no other singer brings tears to my eyes because of the shear beauty of her pure voice, love you EmmyLou!!

[PennyRankin]

She was my idol in the 70s i was 17. I was heavy in drugs. I thought so much of her i got much better ❤❤

Willie Nelson also did this song. I would love to hear Emmylou sing with Willie. Two very distinct voices.

[stephaniehowell]

Thank you, Emmy voice, your music has helped me cope with some real hard times...and still does.

I am siting here crying remembering when I first heard this song. SUCH a Beautiful Voice. SUCH an Amazing Song. The Melancholy is OVERWHELMING ! I have always felt like “Lefty” even when Young. God Bless You Townes Van Zant and Emmy Lou Harris for bringing One of the Most PURE, BEAUTIFUL SONG to the World ! !

Never heard a song Emmylou couldn`t sing! Townes would be honored.
