I want passionate kisses from my Debbie..

This lady is one of the finest singer/songwriters on the planet...and so modest and demure...❤❤

Thanks for my childhood .... <3 Oh god that's what it was... <3

Nice comment. Why? Lucinda is a great songwriter and I understand when you say she sings this better. My best analogy is John Hiatt, one of the best ever. I personally prefer his version of his songs but there are lóts of great covers. Not that you should care but you posted. Have a good one.

The more I hear MCC The more I want to hear the adorable powerhouse that is MCC.

I was fortunate enough to have attended this show. It was great all the way through, but this was probably the best performance of the night.

My wife & I were fortunate enough to see MCC in 1993 at the Mann in Philadelphia when “C’Mon, C’Mon” was released, the album this song was featured on. I had never been to any show where I’d felt my emotions get the best of me, but on that evening, I was wiping away tears twice - once during the performance of this song and again when Chapin sang the title tune. It’s been 30 years now and I still believe “C’Mon, C’Mon” is the best overall compilation of songs I’ve ever heard from a female singer-songwriter and her performance on that July evening ranks as one of the best five concerts I’ve ever had the privilege to be in the audience for. She was at the peak of her creative powers at that time and I feel so grateful to have witnessed how a great artist can reach into the souls of other human beings. On that particular night, she touched mine.

Songs that make you cry are not made up.

Love MCC so much and love seeing her perform with John Jennings. They were special together and made such beautiful music. Gosh, I miss that man! ❤️She always smiles when she sings this! Thank you for the video!

Buetiful, the song and the songstress. 🌹♥️🌹

sublime song beautiful mind and physical appearance she like passionate kisses

Is it too much to ask I want a comfortable bed that won't hurt my back Food to fill me up And warm clothes and all that stuff Shouldn't I have this Shouldn't I have this Shouldn't I have all of this, and Passionate kisses Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh Passionate kisses from you Is it too much to demand I want a full house and a rock and roll band Pens that won't run out of ink And cool quiet and time to think Shouldn't I have this Shouldn't I have this Shouldn't I have all of this, and Passionate kisses Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh Passionate kisses from you Do I want too much Am I going overboard to want that touch I shout it out to the night "Give me what I deserve, 'cause it's my right" Shouldn't I have this (shouldn't I) Shouldn't I have this (shouldn't I) Shouldn't I have all of this, and Passionate kisses Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh Passionate kisses from you Passionate kisses Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh Passionate kisses from you Passionate kisses Passionate kisses from you Passionate kisses Passionate kisses from you Passionate kisses Passionate kisses from you Passionate kisses Passionate kisses from you Passionate kisses

Beautiful song Chapin ❤️🙏😌

The most effective line in this song (to me) is the one Chapin so wonderfully left out. Right after "It must have been one helluva a suitcase you packed." There's an expected lyric after that sentence, and "space" for it, but ... none comes. Silence. Thoughts. Masterful. (And I still want to play bass for that woman!)

Beautiful voice

beautiful !

30 years on and still all the greatness from 1992 is here today. Wow!

I love her

John Jennings 1953- 2015 R.I.P.

You can tell she was seeing Mike Campbell of the Heartbreakers around this time . Love that Rickenbacker sound.

I miss the 90’s

Such an amazingly talented musician, singer songwriter. MCC is truly the Elder Stateswoman of Country Folk Music. I love this woman's music.

Oh geez! Lucinda minus the soul!

Still Listening Feb. 21, 2022 Hi Everyone.

I love her and this group. Her Wolf Trap video of the same song is my fav video on CZcams, and I've watched a lot of them.

mind blowing .....brilliant

been a big fan since i first heard MCC back in the early 90s, if my memory is still intact or can trust it. one of the best composers of our time, male, female, or other. Thank You MCC

Beautiful piano accompaniment,breathtaking from the heart,just transcends ,"just a song"

What a Band, what a Voice, what a Song

Just gorgeous.

One beautiful woman

This is gorgeous. I've never heard it before -- so glad to have found this beauty.

Song makes me cry every single time -yearning for our childhood… feeling safe “under a sheltering sky”…yet the dissolution of a family… as the baby of ours, I ached every time my siblings moved away….

More tissues, please...

The lyrics to this song are so vivid; they take me back to my own childhood. A very reflective song; wonderful music written to accompany such. Thank you The MC2Fan for recording it and for posting it.

I so enjoyed hearing years later Ms Carpenter tell the story as to how she came to record the song of Lucinda's. What I truly like about this particular recording now are the words about "shouldn't I have this". I adore that her dear best friend, producer and amazing guitarist is her right-hand person up until he was taken too soon by CA. Thank you TheMC2Fan for ensuring that this Austin City Limits performance made it to You Tube. It is a good 'pick me up' beat when one needs such, with words to process as well.

Same band members I saw at the Reading Hexagon theatre so many years ago. Been a fan every since, have all her albums.

Happy 63rd birthday, Mary Chapin Carpenter!

So personal and oh so lovely. Mary Chapin Carpenter is a treasure, an intellect and a poet.

talent

Can you believe I found MCC this COVID seclusion from her Songs from Home. Bummer it wasn’t much sooner! I could listen to this song all day. Love her, her music, her poetics. And Angus and White Kitty!

Just so amazing. Urban a very deep woman, I've been told the same thing lol sing on lady think I fall asleep to this 1,,,love you miss Mary xox

Austin? Lucinda is from Louisiana.

What a beautiful song, what a beautiful singer, it has got to be one of the best performances I've ever seen on this program this hits me right in the heart

Hello Mrs. Mary...this song just touches my heart sooo.. ty for singing it...xcx

So funny., I always thought it was about an older brother. Makes the song seem more plausible and poignant, though I now know it was written about a sister. Girls today have all that BFF rubbish, etc, going on. But between a girl and her older brother, there might grow a distance as he grew older. But if it's about a sister, nobody in the family gets up to help a sister leave for college? I played the Come On Come oN CD in my car today, and , as always, this song put a lump in my throat.
