Cowboy Junkies - SWEET JANE (LIVE IN LIVERPOOL). For anyone who’s ever had a heart.

First time in my WHOLE life, im 60, that i jammed out to an Accordion!june24

Lou Reed called this band’s original cover of this song “the definitive version”. Couldn’t get a better accolade than that one.

Cowboy Junkies are such an under-rated and/or overlooked band. They've been doing great stuff for a long while now.

I miss really good music like this... The things you find when your scrolling through YT...

This version never gets old. I read an interview in which Lou reed said that Cowboy Junkies were his favorite version.

You couldn’t get a more beautiful singer with a better voice to perform this number!!

Okay, so, after listening to this a couple of times using a good set of headphones, I discovered "flavors," if you will, from each of them. Little things that one might not notice right off the bat but nevertheless are there. Subtle taps by the drummer. Equally subtle enhancements by the guitar; the kinds of little things that really add to the song. Kind of like putting just enough spice in a dish to make it pop without being overwhelming and distracting. Great track by a great band. I really enjoyed this. Thank you.

Anyone who knows anything about music will appreciate this song for what it is, one of the greatest rock tunes of all time. This cover is absolutely incredible.

It just keeps getting better and better each time I listen to it. A present for my ears

Happy Heavenly birthday Lou Reed and thank you for a splendid song. Margo steps right up and delivers.

I would venture that “Sweet Jane” has been covered by over a hundred bands. Lou Reed is on record saying this was his favourite. I absolutely concur with him.

only a legend walks on stage with a cuppa BRAVO!!!:hand-pink-waving:

Wish you could give it a thumbs up everytime you watch it

I saw this band in May of 1989 at the Rialto Theater in Raleigh, NC. It was so laid back and awesome. We got out of our seats and moved down to the front and sat on the floor and watched them. This cover of this song is my favorite of all time.

Lou Reed always said that the version of Sweet Jane on their breakthrough album, The Trinity Session, was the best ever (including his own!).

Similar to the Grateful Dead and the Allman brothers live jams. This song could go on for an hour and more, letting each instrument and her voice take control for periods as it progresses. That guitar playing is incredible!

Brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Brings back memories my late wife and I shared. Thank You

Fantastic! All aspects of it. Mandolin, guitar, and a freakin’ accordion with Margo’s great vocals. Doesn’t get any better. Turn it UP!

For anyone who's ever had a heart . . . every single moment in this is perfect.

To hear a song you've known forever for the first time is a wonderful thing.
