...but I love them all - that angelic voice and mean fiddle-playin' chops. What a combo! :loveya:

I heard another cover of that song...by some guy.
A pale imitation! Allison nailed it flawlessly!

He sounds like the worlds biggest wussy singing it...

Too bad he chased his demons with alcohol and died young.

I should learn to read an entire thread before I post; mea culpa.

If anyone would like any of these 6 songs, send me a PM with your email addy, and I'll try to email back your requested mp3's (all 192 kbps), if I can remember how.

is an amazing song done by an amazing singer. It's hard to pick a favorite by Allison, because everything she does is perfection!
Bertha Venation and I saw Allison and Union Station at Wolf Trap Farm National Park for the Performing Arts a couple of years ago. A bug flew down from the loge and right into her mouth! She coughed and sputtered for a few minutes while Dan talked to the crowd; Dan said he saw the bug heading right for Allison.
If you ever get a chance to see them, don't pass it up. They do one helluvagood show.

| 8. When You Say Nothing At All |
|
I have to go with the more mainstream answer....don't listen to country much but have always liked Allison's sweet voice. Another one I like a lot is "Moments Like This" from the Twister soundtrack.

| 14. "I Don't Believe You've Met My Baby" |
|
Originally on "Slide Rule" by Jerry Douglas, but she put it on her "best of" compilation, so it qualifies, sort of.
Second place is probably "Sleep On"

| 15. When she gets together with Jerry Douglas |

They just open heaven's gate. Saw them do a few numbers on PBS, and it was the cat's ass.
