    @borghese84
    I totally agree. This version feels like the origional and the Stone’s version feels like the cover.
    TVZ kills this song and makes it his own.

    I strongly believe this version is way deeper than the original. Am i the only one thinking in this way?

    La vidéo va très bien avec la musique, c’est réussi.

    It’s strange that the Stones would even write a song like this. It just doesn’t sound right with a heavy, rock-beat and electric guitars.

    The video footage here is from the documentary “be here to love me”,any Townes fan should check it out,but beware….infinite sadness! don’t watch while depressed! I love his songs, and Lebowski is one of my favorites.I’ts also cool that townes has another song in a Jeff Bridges movie,Crazy Heart ,has if I needed you! what a songwriter!!

    @banfile7 thats cool, when ever I play it I play it as a van zandt cover. its in his style and could be his. He wrote so many good songs it really doesnt matter.
