Grace Potter covers Golden

[bold99]

not sure if the link comes out..you can get it at www.thisissomewhere.com

Grace laid down an excellent cover of My Morning Jacket's "Golden" on Sunday at the show in Montreal. You can grab the entire show from etree here - Petit Campus, Montreal, QC - Grace is in a talkative mood. Special Bonus Michael McDonald impersonation at the end!

"Golden" (click to download)

Watchin' a stretch of road, miles of light explode.
Driftin' off a thing i'd never done before
Watchin' a crowd roll in. out go the lights it begins.
A feelin' in my bones i never felt before...
Mmm... people always told me. that bars are dark and lonely
And talk is often cheap and filled with air.
Sure sometimes they thrill me
But nothin' could ever chill me.
Like the way they make the time just disappear
Feelin' you are here again. hot on my skin again.
Feelin good a thing i'd never known before
What does it mean to feel?
Millions of dreams come real
A feelin' in my soul i'd never felt before... mmm...
And you always told me.
No matter how long it holds me if it falls apart
Or makes us millonaires. you'll be right here forever.
We'll go thru this thing together
And on heaven's golden shore we'll lay our heads

and look at the live music player on the right hand side of the blog.

Check out "Get Better Mr. James" - a song Grace sang only one time. An ode to Jim's pneumonia.

Thanks.  I promise not to abuse it, I just like the novelty of it.  I heard a partial cover of Kings Of Leon's, Arizona a while back by Grace, and hope she finally pulled it off one day.  Any knowledge of that?
BTW- Welcome to the board.

I just saw Grace in Boston last thurs....she rules...her and Jim should really do something together (I mean on stage!) she also rocks the Flying V like no other female i've seen.  She covered Paint It black and Pain in my heart the other night...killer voice and he band rocks.

They played Arizona in Troy, NY last Saturday. I haven't seen it on archive or anywhere else yet. They also did it back in February at the Bluebird Theater in Denver, CO

Here you go!

Grace Potter and the Nocturnals are AWESOME.  How they dont get more recognition is beyond me, I would advise everyone to go out and buy both their cd's.  I'm still trying to see them live though, i've heard nothing but good things.

I've never heard of her before but I like the cover. She has a nice voice.

Exactly...I don't think there is a band out there that plays more shows....Grace hosted the Jammy awards this year with Warren Hayes, she's had her songs on TV shows, she's played with and opened for just about every band out there....its crazy that people don't know about these guys.  I would recommend seeing them live before listening to the studio stuff but I like the albums also.  Great Live Band.
