“a song that happened by accident,
like all my favorite songs that I write do.”

She says that she listened to Border Song by Elton John and The Beatles’ Let it Be when she wrote it, and that gospel feeling that those songs have, Brandi Carlile mannages to bring into this great song, That wasn’t  Me.

Music video by Brandi Carlile performing That Wasn’t Me.

Live at Beer Creek version:

She told Rolling Stone Magazine:

“I literally could not believe my luck,” recalls Carlile about getting Kristofferson to appear in the video. “I was fortunate enough to hang out with Kris at the shoot, and he surpassed all my expectations and proved himself to be a kind, compelling and inspiring gentleman.”

Two incredibly good versions of the song!
