Goodnight to a mother's dream - Nanci Griffith video free download

Glenn Gilbert

This is one of my favorite songs. Nanci kindly played it at my request on my birthday night. She and the band played it so beautifully that I just wept. Couldn't he'p it, as we say in Texious. It was in a plein-aire amphitheatre and as she finished I flipped a bottle cap to her in appreciation. My ex- was so jealous of Nanci that night, it was unspeakable. Good heavens, this is even better in concert. What a tune. What a tune.

As I hope I once conveyed to Nanci, I dream sometimes of writing American poetry so beautiful as this, but the thought of setting such idiomatic lyricism to timeless music--well, that's beyond my dreams. What a wonderful, eternal satisfaction it must be to know that you have written a perfect song! This song's so good that it transcends Envy.

I can't express how important Nancy's songs and voice are to me. I was given this album by the only woman I ever loved. I haven't seen 'her' for many years and I admit,I don't think of her so often these days, but when I hear Nancy all the 'noble madness' connected with being in love floods back. A bitter sweet experience for sure, but glad to have had it. No conscious intention today to seek Nancy out, just ended up here. Only as I type I realize today's the BD of the lady who gave me Nancy.

Flyer is a great album. Also love Little Love Affairs and anything from the Five and Dime era.
