  • Such beautiful music. I love Brandi and have never heard her wife till now. So moving, so beautifully done!❤

    This is beautiful! The harmonies are great
  • I always felt like one of Brandi's biggest strengths as an artist(and she has a lot of them, so it's a tough contest) is just how big a true fan she is of the music she chooses to cover. Listening to a song she's covering is always like being re-introduced to an old friend. It's not even that she always sings the song technically better than the original artist, but you can just hear how much she loves that song, and what parts of it spoke to her, and it just feels special that she's so unguarded about sharing that appreciation with all of us.

    "If you wait for me Then I'll come for you Although I've traveled far I always hold a place for you in my heart If you think of me If you miss me once in a while Then I'll return to you I'll return and fill that space in your heart Remembering Your touch Your kiss Your warm embrace I'll find my way back to you If you'll be waiting If you dream of me Like I dream of you In a place that's warm and dark In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart Remembering Your touch Your kiss Your warm embrace I'll find my way back to you If you'll be waiting Oh, I've longed for you And I have desired To see your face, your smile To be with you wherever you are Remembering Your touch Your kiss Your warm embrace I'll find my way back to you Please say you'll be waiting Together again It would feel so good to be In your arms Where all my journeys end If you can make a promise If it's one that you can keep I vow to come for you If you wait for me And say you'll hold A place for me In your heart A place for me in your heart A place for me in your heart A place for me in your heart" Source: LyricFind

    I saw Brandi Carlile in Seattle before she made it big at a Garrison Keiller show. She and the twins were fantastic. My husband and I fell in love with her voice then and she's not disappointed since.
