We worked Mary Chapin Carpenter at The Park West in Chicago in early 90s. People started dancing on tables and I had to get them down. She was very friendly and visited with the crew after the show.
i wore out every album she put out, especially this era! I wrote a fan letter to her when I was 12 years old... she actually called me on the phone to thank me personally, it made my entire year... she is an amazing person on top of amazing artuist!'
I SOOOOO WISHED TO MARRY HER MY BEYIN A MIDWEST COUNTRY GENTRY N HER BEIN SUCH A DYNAMIC, PHENOMENAL, MESMERIZING, FLAWLESS, BREATHTAKING, PERFECT, STUNNING, VIBRANT, EXCITING, SPECIAL, ELEGANT, ELOQUENT, WONDERFUL, CHARMING, ADORABLE, ELECTRIFYING YOUNG TALENTED WOMAN IN FACT SHE'S DEFINITELY THE ONE I'D CERTAINLY BE MOST PROUD TO TAKE HOME TO MEET THE FAMILY GOD BLESS HER PRECIOUS LIL ADORABLY HEARTED SOUL!🌹🌹🌹😉👰🏽♀️💍🤵🏼♥️♥️♥️🎸🎶🔊🥁
I met her at a local fair when I was 7 and I was in aww. She pet my dog and gave her her own hot dog. She's so nice and I knew her songs by heart even then.
I was a raised by a single mom in the 90's and I really don't think there is a better depiction of that spirit of strength and grit. She always says, "everything we got, we got the hard way." We love you Mary!
A great wise woman who doesn"t have to play the "over the top sexy card" to win votes for her music. Her music with her on-point lyrics speak for themsselves!! She is a crazy poet ringing the bell on behalf of reality...thank you, the world needs you!!
Hey Sally, three years later and I agree and appreciate your comment. The sexy card is that and not much more. Mary has Natural Beauty, Appeal, and Charisma. I'm thinking your people notice this in you.
@@anthonybowditch7805 It appears they are friends and remain connected. Also, they are on a yt video together. Also, Roseanne Cash married the man who formerly collaborated on projects with Shawn Colvin, who Mary Chapin Carpenter often tours with and is a close friend. So, that's the good crowd!
I am a pretty recent regular listener of Mary's on thr scale of things, i had never heard of her until about 2 years ago when she came on the country radio with "passionate kisses" from the same album as this song as it happens, well after i heard that i wanted to hear much more and now i have most of her back catalogue on cd which is listened to pretty often to be honest, I'm so glad i found out about Mary in the end
Mary in the '90's was in a class by herself . All those great albums and selling platinum and multi platinum such as Come On Come On . What a great era in country music along with the golden age of CMT & TNN Networks that brought so much talent to life in all those music videos . I did not know John Jennings had passed on . Play on forever John . Thanks for the info Ed . The album Stones In The Road was another fine one . The song and video for Shut Up And Kiss Me with Lee Roy Parnell just rocked .
I saw MCC with the Mavericks and it was one of the best concerts I've ever seen. I was hoping she'd rock out and swing that hair of hers and she didn't disappoint! Thrilled as I saw Patty, Kathy, Suzy, and Trisha. I used to do this song in our band, so it's a thrill to see this great performance. When I saw her live, at the end of this song she changed the lyrics to "now she's in the swimming pool and sipping lemonade", so when I performed it I did too! (I like those lyrics even better!)
MCC was at the top of her game this year (93) and kicked *ss at the awards shows. BTW, she is the only artist to have won 4 consecutive grammy awards for best female country vocalist. Unfortunately, she was never really seen again on the national spotlight after this year. It's too bad because she was clearly one of the most talented of the female country artists of the 90's.
Mary Chapin Carpenter's circle leads me to these women too: like you said, Lucinda Williams, but also Shawn Colvin, Gretchen Peters, Tift Merritt, Emily Barker, Allison Moorer, Shelby Lynne, Joann Pochop, Mary Gauthier, and I may come back to add or to correct spelling.
I took a walk in the rain one day on the wrong side of the tracks I stood on the rail 'till I saw that train just to see how my heart would react Now some people say that you shouldn't tempt fate and for them I can not disagree But I never learned nothing from playing it safe I say fate should not tempt me I take my chances I don't mind working without a net I take my chances I take my chances every chance I get I sat alone in the dark one night, tuning in by remote I found a preacher who spoke of the light but there was brimstone in his throat He'd show me the way according to him in return for my personal check I flipped my channel back to CNN and I lit another cigarette I take my chances Yes,forgiveness doesn't come with a debt I take my chances I take my chances every chance I get I've crossed lines of words and wire and both have cut me deep I've been frozen out and I've been on fire and the tears are mine to weep Well, I can cry until I laugh and laugh until I cry So cut the deck right in half, I'll play from either side I take my chances I pay my dollar and I place my bet I take my chances I take my chances every chance I get I take my chances Yeah,I don't cling to remorse or regret I take my chances I take my chances every chance I get I take my chances I take my chances
I love her so much. I love Miranda but she’s about the only current one, other than kasey Musgraves, that I like. The 90s country and other genres was fantastic. I miss it

Probably THE most underrated Female artist from the 90's
@@rameychisum2891 underrated and Unappreciated are most assuredly two different things. Hopefully you are able to understand the difference.
Wrong.
I heard that she had a lung embolism and was out of action for three months.
Very good person too
along with Shelby Lynne

omg that is so awesome!
Love her and her voice too
I love this song, she is great!
A brilliant singer and songwriter who is always at the top of her game.
She is a one of a kind and unbelievably talented, she's still killing it today on CZcams singing her songs. Just amazing.
I was a raised by a single mom in the 90's and I really don't think there is a better depiction of that spirit of strength and grit. She always says, "everything we got, we got the hard way." We love you Mary!
I was that single mom in the 90s and she was singing my song.
She is by far the best female artist that I know of. I love all of her music.
"Forgiveness doesn't come with a debt," one of the greatest lines ever in a song.
it would be a great song for the casinos to play.
A great wise woman who doesn"t have to play the "over the top sexy card" to win votes for her music. Her music with her on-point lyrics speak for themsselves!! She is a crazy poet ringing the bell on behalf of reality...thank you, the world needs you!!
That said, "Shut Up and Kiss Me" remains one of the hottest songs I've ever heard ;)

Doesn't have to and refused to play the sexy card.
"Forgiveness doesn't come with a debt." So true!
Beatiful Mary. John Jennings (RIP) always great guitar solos.
What is it about these American female country singers - fabulous. AND - I hear the great John Jennings on guitar, sadly no longer with us.
Mary in her prime kickin major ass!!
This beautiful singer is unknown here in Brazil but I love listening to her. Mauro
From Sao Paulo
Brazil
I LOVE Mary Chaplin Carpenter
This has to be one of the best Letterman musical presentations ever.
Lot of competition for that title ;)
One of those artists that just looks all-around great when playing.
She is amazing! Saw her at Ruth Eckerd hall back in the day! She tells stories like few can! I am proud to be a fan!
She’s a super star. Taken me until now to realise how great she is
MCC takes me to church and brings me to tears...everytime.
Great song/words by a classy lady.
Hello Margaret..
My God she is awesome and with Paul Schaffer on keyboards to boot.
She is one of my favorite female vocalist, and Roseanne Cash awesome

Was lucky to see her in NYC. Love her music~
Holy ^%$#@! This is music I can relate to. Thanks.
Such a Gorgeous Talented Incredible Heart & Soul!
Gotta love Mary. Then and now.
What a great song after all these years.
I love this song ❤
Forgiveness doesn’t come with a debt.
That’s a damn good line.
How sweet is that John Jennings' guitar solo at 2:43!! Gone way too soon at age 61 in 2015.
so understated the camera didn't catch who was playing it!

Have you listened to Between Here and Gone? Beautiful album.
She has been a favorite of mine used to dance like crazy to her songs loved those days

As someone who was a big fan when this clip was new, welcome to the club.
thanks for this song 'cause it remind me old times
Paul was getting down! Great time for country music!
Mary is one of the best!
I've always loved Mary's singing (playing a RIC) Paul cooking on keyboards, and John Jennings (RIP) on Fender

What a great era in country music along with the golden age of CMT & TNN Networks that brought so much talent to life in all those music videos . I did not know John Jennings had passed on .

The best, most powerful version of this Greg song!
Great song,artist and beautiful lady!👍🏻❤️

I saw her on that tour too. Also, I caught her on a triple bill with Trisha and Kim Richey.
@@captainclockwork4007 wow, that would have been great!
@@jaster6056 It was great. One of the highlights was when MCC and Kim came out to lend background harmonies on "Believe Me Baby".
Schaffer on keyboards. Enthusiasm personified.
PERFECTION

Why wasn’t she seen after 1993, her peak?
Yo man, even though it's not in stereo, it still sounds great. Nice going
There have been very few exceptional female songwriters in Country Music. Dolly Parton, the late great Cindy Walker, Lucinda Williams and MCC
Mary Chapin Carpenter's circle leads me to these women too: like you said, Lucinda Williams, but also Shawn Colvin, Gretchen Peters, Tift Merritt, Emily Barker, Allison Moorer, Shelby Lynne, Joann Pochop, Mary Gauthier, and I may come back to add or to correct spelling.
Awesome Song from my Mary Love her❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hello Betty..
Beautiful woman who can sing with the best song s all her ownGo Mary Chaplin Carpenter
Hello Brenda..
Love her!
True country...please let’s not forget
Great song, great band! Another one my band covers!
Her Songs are always like warm Jackets.
she is really good !! I enjoy her music
Man, 1993! What I would do if I could again
What a great singer and musician...
I took a walk in the rain one day on the wrong side of the tracks
I stood on the rail 'till I saw that train just to see how my heart would react
Now some people say that you shouldn't tempt fate and for them I can not disagree
But I never learned nothing from playing it safe
I say fate should not tempt me
I take my chances
I don't mind working without a net
I take my chances
I take my chances every chance I get
I sat alone in the dark one night, tuning in by remote
I found a preacher who spoke of the light but there was brimstone in his throat
He'd show me the way according to him in return for my personal check
I flipped my channel back to CNN and I lit another cigarette
I take my chances
Yes,forgiveness doesn't come with a debt
I take my chances
I take my chances every chance I get
I've crossed lines of words and wire and both have cut me deep
I've been frozen out and I've been on fire and the tears are mine to weep
Well, I can cry until I laugh and laugh until I cry
So cut the deck right in half, I'll play from either side
I take my chances
I pay my dollar and I place my bet
I take my chances
I take my chances every chance I get
I take my chances
Yeah,I don't cling to remorse or regret
I take my chances
I take my chances every chance I get
I take my chances
I take my chances
just awesome, never get enough of this
Wonderful I found this I have always loved her music
7/6/2Q
Thank you, lovely Mary!
Unique voice. People should also listen to Lacy J. Dalton's "Black Coffee".
Tra Cker newer artist... but Julia Roberts break down here
aka "Mad Dad" Yeah Mark R. You got that right.
MaryCC remains as one of Mad Dad's favorite country
artists.
The late, great John Jennings on lead guitar
Always loved his guitar playing on those records with Mary Chapin Carpenter
Didn’t realize he passed away.
@@stevewilkinson8132 Yes, sadly, cancer in 2015, only 61. RIP
Can't get enought!
Very nice song.
CHEERS SHE''S AWESOME
Paul busted a gut there!
Man I miss the 90s!!
Bee safe in gods wisdom allways Mary with those wings up there no hard way ask sisters
You make me smile when you sing!
Hello Dianne..
30 años desde aquella presentación 🤩
Letterman was the best and had amazing performances like this every night. Come on Come on.
I liked the way he remarked about the particular choice of song at the end. The headlines of the day made it peak relevance, so it was no accident!
Forgiveness doesn't come with a debt.....think on it!
There truly isn't anything sexier than class. She's easy on the eyes though too.
I'll take my chances with Mary anytime!
not unless you are female..and Harrell sounds like you are a guy..
And my favorite song
Good job
Thenks for Mary*****
God, I loved the 90s!
My favorite cd come on come on
Beauriful
2/19/1993 - 2/19/2018Happy 25th anniversary⚘🍾🎶
Absolutely!
Hello Adrianne..
Mary knows when a friend doesn't have a net worth the hard way
The most beautiful woman in the world
Please come join the Mary Chapin Carpenter Facebook page. Come and please contribute any stories you may have about Chapin. Thank you.
Music as great as always, but the very best lyrics she's ever written. Good of here she didn't flip the channel back to FoxNews.
CNN was okay back when she wrote this song. You flip to it now you won't get news, just an agenda.
@@MrScottyr86 fire and brimstone fear agenda, that is but government propaganda always fully understands the debt.
.- No te conocia Mary. pero aunque ha sido fortuito, me gustas y te seguire.-- un abrazo.
John larroquote and Mary chapin carpenter on letterman 😎!
She in shania twain was the two best females country singers in the 90s
brimstone in his mouth, is about theocon jerry falwell.
Hardest working performer you'll ever see on stage. You most definitely get your money's worth.
2020 💜💜💜
This was when david letterman was still on nbc before going cbs ! Must see tv nbc!!!
I love her so much. I love Miranda but she’s about the only current one, other than kasey Musgraves, that I like. The 90s country and other genres was fantastic. I miss it
