Cowboygenius take me away

southern 90s kids who rode around in their moms car listening to country radio will get the feels listening to this

Seeing Julien smile while she's singing makes me feel so many things but mostly Gay

These girls make me believe that the lint in my pocket has meaning.

WOW!! Julien Baker...I used to work at guitar center off Stage rd/64 (outside of Memphis) and she was a youngster in there buying up effect pedals. I remember helping her often bc she had really good taste in pedals and knew her gear! Congrats to you and all your success!! Love the cover and it appears you're surrounded by AMAZING SOULS 👏

Such beautiful voices in exquisite harmony, but I do wish they'd given the violinist credit in the description. Her contribution is an important part of what makes this performance so special.

The way Julien delivers that first "sounds good to me" reduces me to existential sobs every time.

Need this on Spotify so bad

Country fits boygenius like a glove.

90's country is a special kind of nostalgia. Puts me back in the backseat of my grandmas '90 Escort, studying the detail of the Nasa sticker I had stuck to the back passenger window, mouthing the words to every song.

*Sad yeehaw*

i was raised on The Chicks and somehow only just discovered this cover and i LOVE boygenius and all its members solo careers so you can imagine i'm freaking out rn

Lucy’s voice is sublime.

Damn, does the girl playing violin get a credit? This cover is pretty good but SHE makes it beautiful.

Lucy's verses are just so damn good

This Dixie Chicks CD was the first CD I ever owned as a kid. Hearing my favorite band now cover it is so unbelievably magical and nostalgic

I just can't believe the absolute sheer talent these 3 have as a group. Just magic.

Good loorddddd this is fantastic. I never thought I'd see the day I'd see julien baker singing dixie chicks.

i want a studio version of this on boygenius 2

why isn’t this on spotify i’m dying

I was a huge Dixie Chicks fan and they continue to hold a very special place in my heart to this day. This was always one of my favorites of theirs and hearing boygenius, one of my all time favorite bands ever, cover it is nothing short of heaven.

im late to this but lucy in the upper register for the second verse is PEAK

The way Phoebe smiles at Julien singing/playing the beginning is an entire mood.

I keep coming back to their cover of this song over and over again. It never disappoints. Never.

oh no i hope this doesn’t awaken anything in me 😳

Julien's SMILE IS EVERYTHING

Also can we pause and just appreciate the hell out of Camille here? The violin (I think? *tips head* could be viola) just MAKES this song and I always have this half-idea that they're like "hey, do you know this song?" and she's like "I mean, if I don't, I'll make something up" because it literally feels like she can improvise along with anything.

I often wake up with country songs from my childhood; my mom's music; stuck in my head. Usually it's infuriating, soulless, overproduced Nashville pop country. Sometimes it's the Chicks or other great stuff. Whenever it's this song, and it often is, I'm glad. And this is the best version of it I've ever heard. Fantastic.

I am ready for a full cowboygenius country album

I think I fell in love separately with each of them at different points during this song

The dark hair singers part is just so Dam beautiful

Just when I thought Julien Baker couldn't get any better she goes and does this.

This is a stunner. Also I don’t own nearly enough personalized blazers.

This is an unexpected crossover but im here for it.

Julien Baker's voice is angelic.

The album ‘Home’ from the (Dixie) Chicks is one of best country albums ever.

this... is the greatest thing I've ever heard. It's almost infuriating. This was on KZfaq for me to enjoy for a whole SIX DAYS before I found it????????????? Unforgivable.

My job is really stressful these days and playing this song on repeat calms me down

LUCY ARE YOU KIDDING literally heavenly

I said, I wanna touch the earth I wanna break it in my hands I wanna grow something wild and unruly I wanna sleep on the hard ground In the comfort of your arms On a pillow of blue bonnets In a blanket made of stars Oh, it sounds good to me I said, cowboy take me away Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue Set me free, oh, I pray Closer to heaven above and closer to you Closer to you I wanna walk and not run I wanna skip and not fall I wanna look at the horizon and not see a building standing tall I wanna be the only one for miles and miles Except for maybe you and your simple smile Oh, it sounds good to me Yes, it sounds so good to me Cowboy take me away Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue Set me free, oh, I pray Closer to heaven above and closer to you Closer to you I said, I wanna touch the earth I wanna break it in my hands I wanna grow something wild and unruly Oh, it sounds so good to me Cowboy take me away Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue Set me free, oh, I pray Closer to heaven above and closer to you Closer to you Closer to you Cowboy take me away Closer to you

I saw Lucy Dacus perform at First Avenue in Minneapolis last year. The show was amazing, and because she had an injured back, she had to either sit or lie down through the entire show. If boygenius goes on tour, I will be there!

And two years later, The Chicks noticed this cover!!!

the giggles at the end bubbled somewhat awkwardly over my aching heart. So beautiful. Each voice incredible in its own way: Julien touching, Lucy angelic yet powerful, Phoebe cuts like a knife.

It's Julien's smiles for me 🥺

I could listen to Lucy sing all day. I love them all

Youngsters! It's your world now.

All three of them have such amazing voices

Isn't this just beautiful and etherial? And not so different from the original? I love when bands can make something sound like them without also not making it NOT sound like the song we're familiar with. That's artistry.

Julien's look at around 0:20 is insane.

can someone ask the editor Jim Beckmann wtf he has against Lucy Dacus? she was barely in this video

I grew up on The Chicks, I love this song so much

such an NPR nerd thing, but I found you guys from when Phoebe did Wait Wait, but I'm glad I found everyone else as well.

We need an official release of this

Beautiful cover and definitely lives up to the spirit of the original!

Why have I never seen this before-

The Holy Trinity.

These girls kill it. Gorgeous and they can actually sing. Nice! I love it. The red lipstick girl is amazing.

I hope we never live in a world where there is not a place for these ladies

feels like I am in a movie when I hear this song

their smiles have my whole heart melting ... there is nothing more perfect than this

wish I could find this cover on a disc...perfect.

How lucky for us these ladies found each other to come together as a very talented group. And they even have fun doing it! 💖💖💖

This is so outrageously stunning. I’m completely blown away

best cover of all time i think

When Phoebe smiles at the start of the song, just shows how kind and beautiful she is.

I have no idea why this showed up in my recommended...but I'm glad it did!

Those little giggles at the end of the song just help emphasize that those absolutely amazing musicians are just young girls. Blows my mind how good they already are!

Everything about this is mesmerizing: their voices, the sounds, all of them.

This video is so much better than your average 'Stealth Camping' or 'Tree cutting fail' videos.

Red lipstick’s voice is heavenly

how am I just now finding this!!

holy SHIT i am CRYING

Easily one of the best covers I’ve ever heard

I think I've listened to this 100 times in a row by now. Well, not really, but it sure feels like it. This is damn good.

This is absolutely amazing. They can sure harmonize. Brings tears to my eyes...

Oh my soul is lifted

Listened to this religiously in Iowa. It’s a country thing not regional lol in our house it was 90s country, classic rock and 90s top 40. Pop music was better than the shit of today. And today’s country all sounds the damn same

Much better version here with everything stripped down and simplified. So pure and clean. Love it!

That IS what passionate intensity looks and breathes like! Bravo to the staff at Avast for a great job with the audio. No credit for the violinist? Comon'...

So beautiful and melodic. had a girl crush on Phoebe Bridgers over the pandemic.

this is my favorite cover of all time

So nice hearing such incredible vocals, and so refreshing not sung in American Idol style that has become nauseatingly ubiquitous.

There are moments caught on film this is one of the best

A very good version of the original. Beautiful harmonies surrounded by wonderfully crafted instrumentals.

For Kristin, one of the great ones, love of my life. Miss you sweetheart. Love always, Ron

Most favorite cover of this song! ❤

I love the mandolin

*HOW IS THIS SO WHOLESOME*

I’m still waiting for this song to show up in Calgon commercial. “Calgon take me away... 🎶”

Extremely impressive. I admire these women. Phenomenal.

Me as a kid: sure, I'm too cool for this, but I've gotta admit they can both sing and play Me now: damn, they rolled up romance, religion, and pastoral fantasy all together like salt, flour and lard, a dang ol' fluffy pastry of a song

Boygenius make more music challenge pls

A freaking mazing!!!!!!!

BEAUTIFUL SHOWSTOPPING SPECTACULAR

Excellent rendition of a great song.

Perfectly suited the name.

I like this version better than the original. Beautiful.

Wow !! You girls did an awesome job covering the Chicks. Simply beautiful. So far this is my favorite cover of Cowboy Take Me Away. Thanks so much.

I absolutely love the Dixie chicks so this was a very pleasant surprise!

This cover always takes my breath away...hits different right now.
