You'll laugh, you'll cry; it's the Americana sensation of the decade: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwevqcForgM&mode=related&search=

3. Me three.
Not too many Nanci fans, but we all love her.

I saw her in concert in NYC a while back, and I was delighted to meet all the fans who follow her around the country.:grouphug:

4. I think there are probably a lot of us here.
She has the sweetest voice I've ever heard.

Nancy trivia: watch the extras on the Townes Van Zandt documentary DVD when she talks about how they (rather unintentionally) dropped acid together. Very, very funny (and, as with all things Nancy, sweet).

5. FREAKY!
I was humming Griffith's "Once in a Very Blue Moon" right before I clicked into the lounge.

One of the best concerts I have seen- I think everyone cried through Tecumseh Valley as Townes had just passed earlier in the month.
I was hoping to run into her at a session while over in Ireland but it didn't happen.

7. I watched it the other day
That and Across the Great Divide, I liked Across the Great Divide much better, it's more polished and the sound was better.
