I'm 76 years old and have watched this cover hundreds (thousands?) of times, starting with its original broadcast in 1989. That means I've been in love with Margo Timmins about half of my life!

[frogsterjonesiii]

She was beyond gorgeous. And that voice!

[irritablearchitect]

You could take me back to 1989 and leave me there and I'd like it just fine.

[imcttunome]

The camera loved her that night as she dropped the best cover of that song ever.

[Chiller]

No auto tune just beautiful voice backed by real musicians.

[BH-frcy]

That subtle smile says it all. Confidence and enjoyment of the moment, beautifully captured for all time.

[rcair]

What a wonderful world we had back then.

[joehinson]

Good Lord that is a great cover and she is crazy beautiful!

[mikesmyth]

She is bewitching, utterly over the top Pied Piper taking the children away bewitching. I'm breathless and mad for a woman who sang 35 years ago! She cast a spell on me.

[BenSHammonds]

loved the Junkies, their Misguided Angel is the one that did for me, hit me solid at the time, I was 21 and going from my solo James Dean around town life to marriage and a factory job, nothing has ever been the same since, like Springsteen song The River, I spent all the time since those days reeling and loosing, or so it seems, but I rarely allow myself the melancholy, but when I listen to certain songs and bands they take me back to another time and place, one in which I often wish I could stay.

[PauloGoncalvesGuimaraes]

Her voice is No words... Never ever anyone sang so beautifully "na na na naaa naaaa naaaa"

[GeoffreyCairney]

It really makes you wonder what it would sound like if she ever let loose and let it rip, and yet the whole genius is the restraint. This is and always will be truly timeless.

[tinahinkle]

Beautiful!!! The Cowboy Junkies have been 1 of my number 1 bands for many, many years!!! The album Trinity Session is my all time favorite! To this day I enjoy their music often! I've never seen them live. One day I still hope to do so ❤

[peterfoerderer]

We used to listen to music like this when we were sane.

[davidanderson]

Wonderful cover. She has that heavenly voice and the backup is so tight with the accordian and slides.

[dirkevans]

Damn, I think this lady could sing a phone book & it would still sound awesome!!!

[stephenoneill]

I had the pleasure of seeing them with John Prine at the Greek theater in Berkeley in I think it was 94. Great show!

[kipphelan]

Amazing. Margo Timmons has a special presence and amazing voice.

[andyyarnell]

I was 17 years old when I first heard the Cowboy Junkies in 1989... instantly fell in love with their music. I listened to this album over and over and over and over again... I can't believe I have never heard this live performance before today in 2023... Exceptional. Just beautiful. "That has a nice quality."

[jaymcconnell]

What a gorgeous voice. Perfect song for that voice.
