john hiatt - have a little faith in me (live - guessing 1986?) ... Sunday AM Song II

Many have covered this classic song of his ... some pretty good ones ... but for my money, the original, with just the songwriter and his piano, pouring out his heart and soul ... will never be outdone.

John NAILS it here too ... well, other than the one little lyrical flub lol ... pure songwriting and performing perfection.

One of my favorites

Best cover, IMO, is Chaka Khan’s

And since it's a 100% gospel song, one would expect someone who can do gospel very well ... like Chaka ... could nail it.

And she damn sure does ... thanks for sharing, I've actually only heard that once, many years ago. Forgot how brilliant it is.
