Good Saturday afternoon my RP Brothers and Sisters!
Before my wife and I take off for Rhode Island to my Friends 50th Wedding Anniversary party, I thought I would post an Afternoon Music Interlude, and the song I chose is by Alison Krauss performing "When You Say Nothing At All", in a performance at the White House!
Background:
"As part of their "In Performance at the White House" series, the President and First Lady invited country music legends and contemporary major artists to the White House for a celebration of country music. The program includes performances by Lauren Alaina, The Band Perry, Dierks Bentley, Alison Krauss, Kris Kristofferson, Lyle Lovett, Mickey, Darius Rucker and James Taylor.
Alison Maria Krauss is an American bluegrass-country singer-songwriter and musician who performs with the band Alison Krauss and Union Station (AKUS). As of 2012, she has won 27 Grammy Awards from 41 nominations, making her tied as the most awarded living recipient. She is also the most awarded singer and the most awarded female artist in Grammy history.
"In Performance at the White House" is a series of events created to showcase the music that's contributed to the fabric of American culture and chronicled the history of its people, performed in the setting of the nation's most famous home." YouTube

Thank you, my friend Sgt (Join to see) for posting the music video of Alison Krauss performing "When You Say Nothing At All" in performance at the White House for former President Barack Obama in 2012
When You Say Nothing at All written by Donald Alan Schlitz / Paul Overstreet
Lyrics
"It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain what I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
A touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
Now you say it best when you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
but when you hold me near you drown out the crowd
Old Mister Webster could never define
what's being said between your heart and mine
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
A touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
Now you say it best when you say nothing at all
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
A touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
Now you say it best when you say nothing at all"
