This song will be the favor of every generation. So much love.

Four weeks before my sister died, she and I were driving around in my car, and I had this playing on the CD player. She turned to me and said “Are you thinking of playing this at my funeral?”. I looked round at her and said “Yes, I am”. We both smiled. She then turned away. Boy, I miss her. Sorry for the sentimentality, but thanks for this beautiful track, Lucinda. Not heard it in a while but needed to tonight. Thanks. xxx

A fucking national treasure is what Lucinda is. I'm confident that people will realize her greatness one day down the road. I hope she sticks around to relish it. She'll be celebrated like all our legends are today. She's old enough to be one but her recording career was sporadic until the past 12 years that she got a late start on making an impression with most. Not even an average album in her canon, but several great ones. Car Wheels is in my top 100 LPs ever. West will prove to be a top 250!

I met Lucinda after she played mountain stage in Charleston, WV with a good friend of hers from Sarasota, Fl. We were back stage and later we all went to the Marriott and talked for a couple hours-she is humble, kind and and her band was kickin-an awesome time. Thanks Lucinda.

I recall the release of West - I was blown away, it quickly became one of my favourite albums and definitely one of the best releases of 2007.

Sometimes a man like me needs to cry ( once in a while ) now's a good time ! I love you Lucinda, always have... few people can grab a soul.. with a whisper...............

This song is full of compassion and passion. The melody is like a beating heart. It says a lot of what ought to be said but never is...

I first heard this song on the show "House". Ms. Williams voice compliments this song with wonderfully nostalgic lyrics and such universal meaning. The instruments also intensifies the simplicity of this song. Beautiful composition all around.

Awesome song! Heard this song at the end of "House" and I was really touched. I am sure it will touch a lot of people in many ways, for years to come. Love it.

Beautifully sang and simple question..lovely tune🌺🌺🌺

Heart hits home. Thank you.

First heard this song on Don Imus show on MSNBS and I've been hooked ever since. Much love!!!

This song is making me think about my friend who I haven't heard from in a long time. Everyone and I that know her are very concerned about her.

This tune is simply lovely... im not a countryfan but her voice is so real.. luv it!!!

Lucinda Williams is one of the best of artists right now!

Warms the heart love her voice

For almost everyone there was someone that got away. This song is a killer... Whew!

Just finished listening to Lucinda's latest album. She always delivers... I always buy....And she never disappoints.(Don't use that line Lucinda..It's mine). Thanks for all the wonderful music that you fill the world with. Come back to Dublin, Ireland!! Happy Trails, Celine.

Beutifull Song, Touched My Heart! Reminds Me Of Someone.

I love this song. Reminds me of someone I loved but left early. I know he's all right - I just wish I could have told him more things before he left. There's a lesson here! Lucinda Willilams writes straight from the heart, she is REAL and that's why she's one of my very favorite singer/songwriters.

This song breaks my heart.

I love this song dearly Lucinda but I cannot listen to it without crying my eyes out. Your music touches in so many ways. It is a great song.

A visceral, evocative and poetic conveyor of truth.

friendship... love... whatever... it just fits perfectly!

She is great singer hits home

Great Album. My inspiration as a songwriter. Storytelling at it's best and most devastating.

You're the last and the best American singer for me. Wonder what made me cry when I dont understand your language. Want to see you in Japan.

I love this song. I'm sharing it with a friend who it is seemingly perfect for!

This song says it all about a lost friendship!

I've been listening to LW music for a long time, but heard this song first on Imus. How horrible that the world will no longer be able to discover incredible talents like Lucinda on his program any more. The jackels have wom. How sad .....

I love this woman.

Lucinda and co. were brilliant last night on Letterman!!!

Amo esta canción , love .. Saludos desde Buenos Aires

Yeahhhhhhh, she's back!!!!!!!!

So simple, so fine - she and her great band rocked our socks off in Dublin. No-one else quite like her.

First heard this on a closing scene from 'HOUSE." Loved it since then. Bought Steel Wheels what seems like years ago now!

Gorgeous!

Lucinda, you're the greatest:) See you next month in Toronto!

That goes deep into my heart ... Incredible who got she can describe this feeling i always get, when someone beloved is hurt, but dont wanna tell u why.

I always considered West one of your greatest outings!

This is good stuff

I love this song dearly Lucinda but I cannot listen to it without crying my eyes out. Your music touches in so many ways. It is a great song. Are u alright. You would think all mothers should be able to ask that question to their sons , but that is not the case. which is where the tear start. I would ask all the questions you did to my boys if i could.

Cool song. I love this laidback style.

Magic!

simply........profound!

Happy Birthday! :)

Thanks House! :)

This was the last bumper song Imus played before the commercial when they bumped him off...

'Touched'....yep

Beautiful, indeed.

Me too!

*put a smirk on my face and a tear down my face*

waiting impatiently for someone to post If Wishes were Horses . . .

Very nice, Sadie.

all I can say is: thank you LW.

🌹

this song cuts through my heart. I think of my ex in this way

What if I’m not alright? I will fight to be better 💪💪🏴‍☠️🙏🏻👊✊🏻😘

I've heard some pretty soulful, meaningful and deep rap and hip hop. You just won't hear it on the radio. Like many country radio stations replace good people like Lucinda with bubble-gummy, soulless country music.

"Are you alright? 'Cause I need to hear from you..." 'Cos I miss you!

Niiiiiiiiiice.!

how good is this voice??? and yet, a clown I talked to that hosts one of the most popular radio shows in mainstream country said THAT VOICE WILL NEVER BE ON COUNTRY RADIO. Sick world, eh?

Man I wish she was singing this to me..

Yes... It was the same eith me! :D

Love those Texas girls !!!

That's right. It's the one where House is confronted by an expecting mother who is desperately trying to keep her baby, at the risk of her own life. Gripping episode.

OK this one too..

🎸👍😎

Such amazing lyrics one would want to share with during times of uncertainty. Are you alright?

this is Are You Alright

She did get away, I wonder if she is all right: wish I had the nerve to call her. Hey! are you all right

I wanna hear lucinda and Tom Waits duet!

Oh I love to know i this is the complete poem... and who is it by

just like that, you disappeared from my life. are you alright? i just miss you.

Sometimes all people need is to be asked Are you all right ? Iv'e been a little worried- Just let me know your ok

I stand corrected. My bad. lol

Season 3 episode 17

Hey sorry ,gravity took hold for a bit.im alright but still need a jump start some morning

Don Imus Likes this song alot, hes always playing it!

my pal calls them Face Jocks.

inspirational (didyagetachaanyonya) you sound so poetic. i agree with every word, letter, and sentence you've said that explains this song

He is probably right because there are enough artists that cannot write for shit and will end up being the ones on the radio singing her songs.

no not ok
