Thanks for the link to that vid...i love warren. I had to opportunity to go to the soundcheck a few years back when he played with The Dead and was able to be right up there at the stage at Deer Creek in Nobesville, IN. That mans hands are HUGE. They look like bear paws. I have no idea how he gets them to fit in some of the frets. My wife loves him too. Her thoughts are that when you have a chance to see him live it feels like his voice goes straight through you and vibrates around on your spine on its way back out.

Same here.

My wife has been learning more about the blues' date=' the progression of music from Robert Johnson to Led Zep and the way blues branched out in so many directions. She's really digging Warren Haynes and the Mule stuff, first time for her.

I haven't heard Beautifully Broken in a few years, honestly I had forgotten about it until I saw it on YouTube.

 

I was listening to that song with a little more of a critical ear after the wife asked what he's talking about.

"I dunno, it's blues, what does anybody talk about in the blues?"

 

Well, I found the lyrics online and went back to listen to the song again - powerful stuff.....

 

[i']Mysterious-blown in with the night-all this beauty

Captured in a frame

Visibly shaken but never stirred-drives them insane

I see the way she plays her men- and I know I've got to know her name

 

She's so beautifully broken-shaped by the wind

Dangerously twisted-Here I go again

 

I see the way she casts her spell-it's like drowning in moonlight

Discards them when she's done-they're lost in her twilight

I watch her move from star to star and I wonder why, why it feels so right

 

She's so beautifully broken-you can barely see the flaw

Especially from a distance-which is always how I fall

 

Why do I fall for the dangerous ones-the ones that

Never learned to let go

And why do I lie to myself and pretend that I can break her

When she's already been so beautifully broken

 

Why do I fall for the dangerous ones-the ones that

Don't know how to let go

And why do I lie to myself and pretend that I can break her

When she's already been so

Beautifully broken-shaped by the wind

Dangerously twisted-Here I go again [/i]
