Hey Paul, when for a collab with Josh Turner? Looking forward for this, you cannot imagine. So nice work Mary, you all gathering is so exciting to see and to hear! Cheers from France.
Josh, just to show how much your music is moving folks, I'll share this with you...My dad is almost 86 years old, and in poor health. He used to play and sing a lot in his younger years. Now he sleeps most of the days away, and my mom can't find anything that will motivate him to get up. I visited them a couple of weeks ago, and pulled up your videos on YT, and started playing them loud so my dad could hear it back in his bedroom. We were in the living room. After about the 2nd one we watched, here comes my dad shuffling into the living room to watch....we watched over an hour's worth of your videos, and he stayed wide awake listening and appreciating your music. My mom said to him, now I know how to get you up! Thanks for sharing your broad range of musical styles....dad really loved the older songs he used to sing, i.e. Tennessee Waltz, Folsom Prison Blues, Hey Good Lookin, and the older country stuff. Thanks again, and please keep 'em coming!
Say what you want about the oft-maligned algorithm, it managed to bring two of my favorite musicians on CZcams together, whom I discovered on two completely independent paths. Even 20 years ago, this possibility would be nothing short of a miracle, but today we can bring two harmonious talents in a cacophonous sea together. What a fantastic time to be alive.
I hadn't heard of Josh Turner until this week. Then he shows up playing with two of my favorites: Mary and Reina del Cid. Now I'm reading a comment from you, Rhett, another of my favorites. I guess my preferences in music are more consistent than I thought.
Never heard this song... I don’t know if I would like to listen to the original... I am afraid to find out a pale shadow of your beautiful version! Thank you! Thanks Josh for helping us finding real wonderful artists all over the network!
Just Wow. I can't let a day go by without listening to you Josh. Mary I watch you on CZcams but have only begun to listen to your music. You are amazing.
I remember watching this guy's cover of Sultans of Swing years ago and spending weeks learning it note by note, he's come a long way since then, and he deserves it.
REAL music is being made on CZcams with the performers completely in charge with the process. Love this... Josh is an old favorite but Mary is a delight as well. Thanks.
Bonjour @Maryspender Wow ! What an amazing performance ! I follow Josh on YT for years now and saw he was around... Just a click and i arrived on your channel to hear yor beautiful version... Wow ! Merci beaucoup ! Much love from France 💐
I’ve known Josh all his life & have loved his music. I just heard Mary for the first time & love her as if I’d known her forever. What a beautiful song & collaboration. You two need to collaborate on a complete album of songs. Your voices are perfect together. Wow! Congratulations on a hit!
Thanks to CZcams for making things like this accessible! Josh Turner is an amazingly competent musician. What's he going to be like when he's fifty! Mary Spender plays so wonderfully also. It's also cool that these two and others like Paul Davis and Rick Beato mix it up!
Mary, Josh, Over a few years I have created playlists of hundreds, if not thousands, of music videos on youtube that span many decades and genres, not to mention non-music videos on a variety of other topics I am also interested in. I have realized that it has reached the point that if I watch them all day every day until I am 90 years old, I won't get to them all. So, I ask you, how am I supposed to even put a dent in that effort when I can't help coming back to your videos -- especially this one -- several times a week to listen to it three or four times in a row? Thank you, I guess. (Why do you both have to be so good?)
Mary, when you collaborate with people like Josh and Leo, they pull a level of performance out of you that is astronomically fantastic. There is a synergy there, when you collaborate with the best of the best, they make YOU the best, too. Please, don't wait for them to ask you to collaborate with in 2020, instead, bring your best to the table and ASK THEM to collaborate with you.... your voice is an exceedingly rare and pure commodity, and your money maker. Find fantastic sound engineers and producers to mix your work too... I see huge stars in your future, if you do so.
So I was watching a Josh Turner video and thought, man he should to a colab with Mary. Then proceeded to do a YT search and lo and behold they have indeed already.
Oh my gosh! I can't type anything except: Thank You, that's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen/heard. Plz stand by whilst I find my box of tissue to dry my eyes.
A beautiful song and agreat duet! Hi Mary, I am very happy to say that I have just discovered your channel, and I love your music and your viewpoint on music in general. I have been following Josh turner for a couple of years now, And this duet between the two you is awesome! I am a 70 year old guy n Canada who has been playing guitar for over 55 years now, fighting the arthritis in my hands lately, but still with a huge love of music and musicians. Looking forward to hearing much more from you. Keep up the great work!
I've been following Josh for, like, forever, and now I've seen and heard Mary and her angelic voice! This brought tears to my eyes. Josh, you are truly finding your voice!
i am a gigantic Brandi Carlile fan and started watching prepared to be disappointed, but actually ended up liking it better than the original. Way to go!
Such a beautiful refrain 😌. Just wish in the brief stillness of quietude, he'd reached over and given her a gentle hug - an acknowledgement of what they'd shared.

So glad to finally work with you, Mary. May there be many more in the future.
Haceme un hijo bien de a poco, Joshua Lee Turner.
Hi Josh, are you using an OM 28 too?
Yes, please, Josh. Your voices blend very well, great performance.
So cool to see you two together. I hope you do more.
I'm also glad to see this as I follow you both on here!
awesome
Why do all my favorite artists know each other

jmccullah thank you so much for sharing that. All the best to you and yours for 20202!
Lovely story health to your father
Josh Turner Guitar
Outstanding👍
So cool about your dad! ❤️❤️
jmccullah, THANK YOU for sharing that. Comments like yours are why I'm addicted to ALWAYS exploring the comment section ... AFTER watching YT.

Dude takes the high harmony at the end...what a boss
I have been married to my love for 48 years and I just found our song!
For me, this is literally one of the best acoustic performances in the CZcams history
Cant agree more!!
Amen to that.
Aye!
Josh Turner AND Mary Spender! This is like Christmas!!!!!
this is Christmas (2019)
And now, Christmas 2021, not exactly what we planned for, but it’s here!!
Xmas 2022, still hits!!
It's hard to imagine how much work went into making this seem so effortless.
This performance is criminally underviewed. Fantastic.
Please fall in love and get married. Stay together forever. We need more songs like this... and babies that make songs like this for our children!
What a performance by these two talents. That was gorgeous.
Love this, I feel a transatlantic collaboration coming on.
I just watched you play some killer guitars! lol
If anyone can see quality, Rhett, you can.... Hook 'em up with Rick Beato, and a songwriter out of Nashville that needs a new song showcased?
I hadn't heard of Josh Turner until this week. Then he shows up playing with two of my favorites: Mary and Reina del Cid. Now I'm reading a comment from you, Rhett, another of my favorites. I guess my preferences in music are more consistent than I thought.
Can you imagine? Without CZcams we would never hear this kind of performance. !
I'm trying to find words to describe how I felt watching this and all I can think is
W O W
Exactly
Took the word right out of my mouth!!
me too
Oh hi 👋
Eliana Hershberg hi honey 😂
Do you ever just break down and cry at the sheer beauty of a song midway through a performance? Asking for myself.
Joshua Londero,
No -- not "midway". (Quite a bit before midway, actually.)
The amazing talent CZcams has exposed to the whole world.!!
Well, I don't but if I had to guess I'd say these two have a 'thing" for each other. And why not; they're freaking adorable.
Simon and Garfunkle better watch out!! Super harmonies and guitar work - very special!!
Okay, so that was pretty awesome. I really like Spenders singing voice a whole bunch...
Never heard this song... I don’t know if I would like to listen to the original... I am afraid to find out a pale shadow of your beautiful version!
Thank you! Thanks Josh for helping us finding real wonderful artists all over the network!
The original is way more country sounding, especially with its orchestration.
richard koo so I will stay with this :]
Now I understand why CZcams recommended Mary Spender to me! Josh Turner is also how I discovered Reina del Cid.
I discovered Josh through Reina. We must have similar tastes.
Funny, I discovered Josh and Reina through Mary.
Mary Spender is extremely cool.
Accented each other nicely without either one overpowering the other.
Josh is one of my favourite guitar players on CZcams right now - great to see you two collab.
Wow that was fun to listen to great job
Once again...better than the original!
I like Mary's guitar playing and singing
Very nice collaboration! You watch enough CZcams music videos, you find Josh Turner playing with all the up-and-coming artists.
Crossover of the century
Brandi Carlile's original song is beautiful. This version gives me 5 minutes of non-stop goosebumps.
This version sounds better than the original done by Brandi Carlile, more engaging well played and signed by very young musicians, Great!
I think i speak for everyone when i say we wan't more of you and Josh.
Wow... that was way better than I was expecting.
Better then the original, just done perfectly
Ladies & gentlemen it's an acoustic jam session time with Mary Spender & Josh Turner.
Loved it, Brilliant, Found by accident bookmarked forever
Mary and Josh make magic music. I want more. You are both individually gifted and fantastic, but together magic music happens.
My bird loves it, and so do I!❤️
This is should be happening MORE OFTEN....
Just Wow. I can't let a day go by without listening to you Josh. Mary I watch you on CZcams but have only begun to listen to your music. You are amazing.
It’s been a slow burn Mary but I never miss now and that Josh is great too !
Best duo of the year !!
This is a true power (music) ~coulple~ duo
I remember watching this guy's cover of Sultans of Swing years ago and spending weeks learning it note by note, he's come a long way since then, and he deserves it.
Josh and Mary, as good as it gets!
Both songs with Josh were a new way of seeing you, Mary. Totally phenomenal!
@Badger BadgerBadger One on Mary's channel, one on Josh's channel.
This is a folk-y rendition of Brandi's original country song. Love it.
This song shows the passion of Mary Spender, I think it is one of her best.
REAL music is being made on CZcams with the performers completely in charge with the process. Love this... Josh is an old favorite but Mary is a delight as well. Thanks.
Seeing two of my favorite CZcamsrs covering this song. Amazing.
Bonjour @Maryspender
Wow ! What an amazing performance ! I follow Josh on YT for years now and saw he was around...
Just a click and i arrived on your channel to hear yor beautiful version... Wow !
Merci beaucoup !
Much love from France 💐
Only a matter of time until Josh performs on Colberts show!
You two really need to make an album together. Simply, beautiful. Thanks.
I’ve known Josh all his life & have loved his music. I just heard Mary for the first time & love her as if I’d known her forever. What a beautiful song & collaboration. You two need to collaborate on a complete album of songs. Your voices are perfect together. Wow! Congratulations on a hit!
Agreed. I would buy this new work, in an instant.
That was really pretty guys. Thank you.:)
Thanks to CZcams for making things like this accessible! Josh Turner is an amazingly competent musician. What's he going to be like when he's fifty! Mary Spender plays so wonderfully also. It's also cool that these two and others like Paul Davis and Rick Beato mix it up!
Seems like every time Josh does a new collaboration I think “well, this is clearly the best one yet.” Well, this is clearly the best one yet. Sublime.
Better than the original. Congratulations! (one more time)
Holy crap that was incredible.
All I can say is....I'm at a loss for words. Please keep sharing with the world. I'm watching talent I've never witnessed before. Thank you!
i'm 55 beginner guitar and a few of Josh's songs have been my inspiration.
This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever experienced in my life.
Today, someone asked me what day it is. I replied Chewsday and even said it like Mary. This channel has made its way into my deeper conscious.
what a lovely voice Mary has.
Mary, Josh,
Over a few years I have created playlists of hundreds, if not thousands, of music videos on youtube that span many decades and genres, not to mention non-music videos on a variety of other topics I am also interested in. I have realized that it has reached the point that if I watch them all day every day until I am 90 years old, I won't get to them all.

I keep coming back to this one , I think it’s my favourite Mary and Josh collaboration, and that’s saying something because they’re all great
Good to see you two get together. :)
So I was watching a Josh Turner video and thought, man he should to a colab with Mary. Then proceeded to do a YT search and lo and behold they have indeed already.
Dream duo. Two of my favourite singers/guitarists in the same video is more than I can handle.
How you guys arranged the guitar for this song is truly amazing
Folk magic!
omg, what a wonder,,,,,,,,on repeat until further notice
The two of you work beautifully together, looking forward to your next joint venture.
the dynamic duo!!!!! great job
Sensational. We are so fortunate.
A lovely interpretation of a great Brandy Carlile song
Holy crap, you got Josh Turner!!
Oh my gosh! I can't type anything except: Thank You, that's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen/heard. Plz stand by whilst I find my box of tissue to dry my eyes.
The harmonies are exquisite.
A beautiful song and agreat duet!
Hi Mary, I am very happy to say that I have just discovered your channel, and I love your music and your viewpoint on music in general. I have been following Josh turner for a couple of years now, And this duet between the two you is awesome! I am a 70 year old guy n Canada who has been playing guitar for over 55 years now, fighting the arthritis in my hands lately, but still with a huge love of music and musicians. Looking forward to hearing much more from you. Keep up the great work!
Me too, 64 and newly Inspired.
Josh is is fantastic with you!
Without music, life would be a mistake! so pure! LOVE IT! Both of you!
My favorite guitar channels in one upload!
If I have to have a song stuck in my head, it may as well be this one. So good. Hope Brandi Carlile approves too.
These two belong on everyone's playlist.
Wish I could hit like more than once. I must hear it every day.
I love your sound, Mary! Shout out to Josh Turner for pointing me to yet another amazingly talented singer such as you Mary Spender!
This is like suddenly seeing a DC hero pop up in a Marvel movie. Great song. Your voices and playing meld together perfectly.
Holy friggin balls that was incredible. Mary's voice and Josh's shredding at the end. Doesn't get any better.
Loved it! Excellent!
I've been following Josh for, like, forever, and now I've seen and heard Mary and her angelic voice! This brought tears to my eyes. Josh, you are truly finding your voice!
Even the panning in the mix is perfect where the harmonies come in. Not easy when just using one stereo Mic. What a solo. So bluegrass and brilliant.
Brandi and the twins are pure gold. Nice cover.
Josh is a great talent.
You guys are AWESOME together... Honestly... music doesn't get better than this!
So good!. As an official old fart, it warms my heart to see younger musicians performing excellent music.
Wonderful, simply wonderful.
No matter if there is a better cover than this one, I will always love this version.
i am a gigantic Brandi Carlile fan and started watching prepared to be disappointed, but actually ended up liking it better than the original. Way to go!
