RIP Nanci. 😢 you’re an Angel.
@Gameplay Today - When I was a kid, I thought that she wrote Boots of Spanish Leather, and since my mom was a huge fan, I grew up knowing every song by heart. When I heard Bob Dylan sing it, I got really pissed & apparently told my mom “this man ruined Nanci’s song!” I was then distraught to learn it was, in fact, his song. It’s ok though, I grew into a deep appreciation for Dylan’s music and love to hear it covered. But no one will ever replace Nanci in my heart. The first lullaby I sang to my nieces the day each of them was born Little Love Affairs -
When I wake in the night
And find that I'm dreaming
You're the first thought in mind
Love's a fair weather friend when
You're lonely
You are my summer state of mind
(Chorus:)
Does it sing to you nightly?
Does it lay down beside you?
Does it make you hear songs
On the radio?
It once was my shadow
Grown Weary of travel
Till you gave it home
When my parents renewed their vows in Ireland on their 25th anniversary, the couple who owned the B&B where we stayed threw a big celebration for them at Kate Kearney’s Cottage in Killarney. Not even knowing about how much we loved Nanci, the band played “From Claire to Here” for them. You very rarely cross paths with another fan of hers in the states, but my favorite thing about Ireland was that it was hard to find someone who wasn’t a fan. 😢
@@DrAnderson1 the key is that the singer sings the song from the heart with the intent of the song writer in mind.
kris Kristofferson wrote the song about a sunday morning coming down.
kris wrote it for johnny cash to sing.
john did. kris dis and so did the highwaymen john kiris waylon and willie.
Nanci also wrote outbound plane.
Kathy's voice must have been touched by GOD to be able to sing so beautifully.
Always loved her music! A perfect voice no autotune just a girl and her guitar and more class and talent than most of Nashville.
Both ladies do justice to this lovely piece of music.
She is someone who should of been recognized in country music more so then she was. I have always loved her music and voice. She was right when she said the guys kinda took over those years.
Some years ago I saw these group live and she sang this song. It stuck in my mind and a Google search turned up Nanci Griffith. Nancy had many u-tube hits and I believe I saw them all. She was stunning. Kathy's version of Five and Dime is just as stunning.
One of the most original voices in country...a true classic.
No one sings it better than .. # Kathy.
Kathy Mattea is one of the greatest artists in country music, in my opinion. I have always loved and appreciated her music so much! She has such a beautiful and mellow voice and is a great guitarist as well. I love me some Kathy Mattea!
Great singer. I miss this type of country music.
Well said...me too !!
Kathy Mattea and her music and humor is incredible always a lady and best always thank you Kathy for keeping me human for so many years .
May Nanci Griffith have flown away to heaven, having caught some blackbird’s wing, with every sweet bluebonnet spring awaiting her arrival.
It would be a fitting & proper tribute to her life and all she left us with if amazing, talented artists like Kathy Mattea continue to cover her music & breathe new life into her lyrics with the same brilliance as this. Never to be forgotten, aNGel.

“These days your face, in my memory, is in the folded hands of grace against these times”
Absolutely beautiful. I saw Ms. Kathy Mattea in concert (Sonoma County) 1989 or 90 when I was 17 years old and her voice is still amazing and very important to hear. I know all of her songs by heart and this is my favorite.
I saw her at about the same time. It was at the Luther Burbank Theater of Performing Arts in Santa Rosa, California. Might have been the same show? It was one of the best shows I have ever seen. At one point, she decided to give the band a break. After they left the stage for a few minutes, she pulled up a stool and sat down and sang a song Acapella. I have yet to this day heard anything to compare! She remains my favorite female vocalist and I long for the day to see her again.
I am amazed at the number of people commenting here cannot simply appreciate a song sung with sincerity by a beautiful performers feel the need to criticize, particularly those saying that because Nanci Griffith wrote it she and only she should sing it. How terribly negative and narrow minded. Both Nanci and Kathy are great artists and performers who speak to the world through through music, giving us their wonderful gift. Those who write songs, or poetry, or novels, or whatever, do so with the desire to share their work with others. I've heard it said that there is no greater honor than to have your work performed by others. There are few gifts greater than the gift of music. Cherish it, appreciate it, give if freely.
I started reading the negativity and was just about to echo your comments. Thank you. You are totally correct.
I hate being the one to tell you this but you can quote me on it if the need arises.
In general, People are assholes.
That's it. What more needs be said? You can't fix it, why dwell on it.
Yes, nauticalguy1. I've never met Nancy Griffith but I'm a devoted follower, so I'll take a leap. The classy artist that she is, I'm confident that nobody loves Kathy's copy of Five & Dime more than Nancy. To think otherwise requires the dimensions of a very small mind. Not that rivalries never happen; half a century ago, Paul Simon waxed snarky on the Mike Douglas TV Show. He was obviously miffed at the fact that S & G's 59th St Bridge Song was a far greater success for Harper's Bizarre than it was for him and Art Garfunkle. Sometimes it happens that way, but Simon wasn't happy about it. No shade on the immortal Paul Simon, but it wasn't his finest day. Just think of Simon's pompousness for what it was-- the exception to the rule.
Such an incredible song. If you love it, sing it and share it :)
I'm totally with you R J Norgard. I play and sing everyones elses songs. Once in a while I entertain someone that way. My dog was giving me a hard time about going to bed, just last night . I grabbed my guitar and played the song I wrote to her, ...she jumped into the air, landing squarely in the middle of the bed. Cat Stevens' very first hit was a song called, " I Love My Dog". Music is of the soul, and almost always about love. It should be shared.
Kathy has one of the best voices ever. It seems effortless for her.
I love Kathy and this song! Rest In Peace, sweet Nanci Griffith! You will be remembered!
One of the greatest country voices of all time. Great performance.
I was living in Denver when this song came out. I remember many concerts back then, including Kathy. Colorado was a musical place!
Beautiful to hear Kathy sing this song again. The years have only made her voice more expressive. She remains one of the best performers I have ever heard live.
Hello Sabrina
I not only love this song, I love all of Kathy Mattea's songs. I wish the radio would play this kind of music again. Not too long ago, I saw an interview about you being your Moms caregiver. I had that opportunity as well. love you Kathy and I love your new album, "Coal." You truly are a woman of substance.
I was partners in a music company in Nashville in the 80s.
Mainly, we did jingles for radio & tv spots.
Kathy was waiting tables at Fridays.
She also sang both demos and final spots.
Aside from her obvious talent, she was an absolutely kick-ass lady.
A pleasure to work with.
I was so glad when she got big.
Charlie Newman nnnhnn
Kathy graduated from my high school, Nitro High in Nitro WV. Our fathers worked together. Great family, I’m glad Kathy made it as well. 😊
@@lisaknell1809 I've been to Nitro...twice.
Shot part of a tv spot there for a bank out of Charleston WV.
Weird place for a guy from NYC & Newark NJ.
Charlie Newman that’s cool! Yes, I’m sure it was different than what you’re used to. Nitro is still proud of our Kathy!
I absolutely love that
She's so beautiful... with a voice to match... How gifted!
I loved her music back when she first started out and still today. Vocals that are so smooth and songs that tell wonderful stories.
Beautiful song, beautiful voice and sung with a lot of character. I’ve always loved this song.
beautiful song, beautifully performed.
Some women age gracefully and beautifully, and Kathy Mattea is certainly a prime example. Simply lovely
Love Kathy Mattea and her cover of this is awesome. I would love to see Kathy and Nanci sing this together. Love it

@@lewisc215 Lewis thanks for sharing that. A friend of mine and I sat through a bad storm to see Kathy Mattea. I am surprised they did not stop the concert but happy they didn't. Kathy is an awesome singer.
Here they are ... czcams.com/video/eQxj-EWEN7Y/video.html
Brilliantly executed!! Love this and this beautiful performer!
Composing, writing, singing.... true artist..... story telling with heart....traveling America & pioneering country music for female artists.....thank you for paying a price....making a path for others. Your gift has made room for you in the Halls of Country Music & most of all in the hearts of Americans.
You have never really heard this lady until you see and hear her live. I got the pleasure of seeing her at Starwood in Nashville Tn way back when she was just hitting it big. We were listening and needing a beer real bad so we waited until she( so we thought) took a break. The band had walked off the stage and we thought the show was over so we got up and started heading to concessions for our beer. Then all of a sudden she started to sing another song only acapella. We waited and ended up not even moving it was that good. I have yet to hear a singer with the voice I heard that day it was simply put Perfection of sound. If you ever get the chance to see her go you will not be sorry.
Very well worded story! Thank you for sharing that!
An absolutely beautiful song done so, so well. I can listen to Kathy sing this over and over again.
No one sings it better than you.. #Love you Kathy.
I always loved Kathy Mattea's music. Great video thank you for posting it.
One Great Singer , Will always remember this Song!!!!
Simply divine! Thanks for sharing this performance with those of us who couldn't be there. Ms. Mattea is and has always been a class act, a truly beautiful soul.
Love Kathy Mattea, great voice, lovely lady. I could listen to her all day.
This was a beautiful live version. I can't remember how I learned of this song. I love the bass in the song (studio version).
Love Kathy. She's like a fine wine for your ears.. A good story. And no Spandex.
I saw Kathy in Lakeside, California when she opened for George Strait at the Lakeside rodeo. She was fabulous!
She still looks, and sounds, great!
Great person, lovely woman and very talented singer...Love this song...which she does SO WELL. Thank youn Kathy for sharing.
One of my favorite country singers and a real distinctive voice..
Love you Kathy and also your music.
Beautiful performance of a beautiful song. Here's hoping we have a Grey Fox in 2021.
kathy is a very special artist.there is something very unique about her. not just a brilliant singer and guitarist,but also obviously a lovely person,even more,numinous!
Such a marvelous ballad, and such a wonderful introduction by an extremely talented Lady.
most underrated country musician ever
Ravishing! Count me in as a Kathy Mattea fan!
Damn, she really has taken good care of herself. Still has that sultry voice.
Yeah, she looks healthy to me.
Saw her with Bill C. two years ago and she was amazing - and I respect her guitar playing - and of course THE voice.
World-Class performance. Off the charts for quality in vocal performance and Picking. Every time I watch and listen, I see where we want to go with our band. My dreams in music find inspiration in this performance. Nemo
Good luck with your band!
Love these story telling / ballades style of songs.
Kathy is my favorite female country singer. Love all her songs
Man, woman or child, one of my all time favorite vocalists! GOD, what a beautiful voice!
Prefer Nanci singing this but still got goosebumps listing to this version, great voice :-)
Nanci just passed away yesterday. Sorry about that. But Nancy did alot for others
This song always calms my nerves. Love it thank you
Such a beautiful song, an exquisite rendition.
I love this song!!
Talented and arguably best ever looking female country singer.
I rarely like covers of the original but this one is is worthy.
First time listening to this song today. Glad found this gem!
You should have been listening to me DJ'ing at KCAR back in 1988! I played Kathy Mattea music every day! ;-) Glad you found this great by an amazing artist!!!
Great songwriter and musician. Have loved her since I heard "Walk the Way the Wind Blows" playing in a store in the 80's. Went out and bought the CD, or cassette tape ..
She was just in Prescott AZ and I missed it. Want to see her live. She's a WV girl, where my mother is from.
Kathy...I am singing, and dancing to this! So sweet!
Thanks for sharing this...it took me back to my country roots! (*_*)
Hello Miss lantana
I don't say that Kathy should not perform this song, she is a very talented and accomplished artist who can sing whatever she wants to. I'm saying that when I see and hear Nanci perform this Love At The Five And Dime, she lives it with an incredibly personal manner that touches me deeply. And that is why I want to experience again and again the magic that Nanci brings to the song. No disrespect to Kathy. Just personal preference.
no bigger Nancy fan than me but, Kathy does it justice. love em both
Some songs are just great. No matter who sings it.
Glad this popped up on my feed kinda forgot about this song,,, voice of an angel!
Oh how I loved listening to this performance. The song, your voice and the feelings it brought to me:)
I love her .I just found this on my computer.I'm a tech dinosaur.I will watch more often.
Thank you to what ever greater being who gave this beautiful being the will to share this amazing talent with us!
love this song, always have. haven't heard it in along time. you go girl.
Kathy, thank you for youre beautifull music . I love you
I love Nanci Griffith. Kathy helped get her exposure by recording this and taking it up the charts.
They came out at the same time. Saw both of them in concert. Different artists. Can't compare. Frankly I think Kathy is easier to watch and listen too.
I listened to Nanci sing this song on one of her earliest cassettes long before I ever heard of Kathy Mattea. Before her long version came out on the live Anderson Fair album. Nanci wrote it.
Yep, You are absolutely right. I like them both but Kathy is one of MY faves. Nothing to argue over. Nancy is a great writer and story teller. I saw them both in concert the same year.
Nancy was singing, writing and performing in Texas and Boston long before Kathy Matea ever heard of her. Some here don't know the depth and breadth of Nancy. At one time, I had every cassette she ever did. Including one from the late 1970's with There's A Light Beyond these woods Mary Margret.
My all time favorite Nancy song is "Michael's Song. If you know that one, you do really go back a ways. When I moved and retired to Florida Iost a lot of my treasures
I remember Mary Margaret and saw her and her wonderful band in concert in Orange County (CA) I may know Michaels' Song....my memory isn't as good as it used to be. We all have our faves. Respect Nancy's talent. I relate to Kathy's personality. Her latest, or maybe not, is an album about Coal Mining. Her family worked in the coal mines...both of them, along with me, seem to be in an era that's over. I never thought hip hop and rapping would last. Argh!
Katia
P.S. I lost my treasures too. Thank goodness for youtube. Will listen to Michaels' Song.
Wow. Her voice sounds fantastic... better than when she was young. And in particular it sounds great considering the microphone is not set up like studio mikes... Excellent. Also nice, clear video. Thanks for posting this....
No one sings it better than you.. #Love you Kathy.
Hey Kathy! WVU 1977....our group was called Pennsboro.....I will always remember
Her "Good News" is still my favorite Christmas album of all time.
the epitome of grace and poise
So beautiful!!
Gentle touch to lyrics😊
I love Kathy and Patty Lovelace's music.
Loveless.
Hello Virgina
I feel energized by this music! Gracias por música!
such a darn good voice
Love your singing for years
There are a LOT of wonderful singers who don't get proper exposure, like Kathy Mattea. It's a lot of chance and serendipity, and if you're what Nashville wants to promote.
always a favorite of mine
Very, very beautiful :)
Beautiful.
Thank for the concert at the 6th and I synagogue last night. It was magical... even without the shoulder pads!
NICE
Hello Beyhan
@@fredthomas4342 funny to hear from you at this venue! Hi.
@@beyhancagritrock3189 oh really...smiles..
So how are you doing today, I hope you are having a beautiful day.?
Wonderful Performance!
My uncle Gene Lorenzo was her keyboard player for a while. I saw her when I was young about1991... She was the nicest person
Kathy Mattea's version is wonderful but Nanci Griffith's original, and especially her stage performance with its story intro, is superb.
Muchas Gracias! Bueno música.
One of my favorites🎶😎👍
Fantastic.
Masterfully done.
Thank you Nanci.
Love kathy mattea music ❤
West Virginia loves you Kathy
Agree about no requirement to acknowledge composers but it is a nice courtesy when it happens. Nanci and Kathy have performed together.
beautiful and special!
Kathy, Would have been nice that you mentioned the person that actually wrote this song. Thanks to Nancy Griffith for actually wrote this song and also performed it live as well!
Beautiful 💖🌺💕my favorite of hers.🍃🌹🌻🐞
