Alison Krauss - I Don't Believe You've Met My Baby (Now That I've Found You)
(Autry Inman/Tree Publishing, BMI)
Last night my dear the rain was falling
I went to bed so sad and blue
Then I had a dream of you
I dreamed I was strolling in the evening
Underneath the harvest moon
I was thinking about you
Then we met out in the moonlight
The stars were shining in your eyes
But another was there too
I don't believe you've met my baby
You looked at her, you looked at me
I wondered who you were taking to
I shook the hand of your stranger
But I was shaking more inside
I was still wondering who
Your arm was resting on her shoulder
You smiled at her, she smiled at you
Her eyes were filled with victory
She said "My brother wants to marry"
And then my heart was filled with ease
I knew that you would marry me

"light and fluffy" is her power. Can't be all things all the time, obviously.
Still a valid critique of a singer who is virtually bullet-proof.

This live version has a slower tempo - maybe an experiment. However, (guest) recording on the Jerry Douglas album "Slide Rule" is much more the same as the Louvin's version. It's a matter of taste. Personally, I prefer the "Slide Rule" version, but this version is still interesting, and you have to say, beautifully done - like everything AK and US do - not a note out of place, and impeccable musicianship. Beautiful! tks for posting
