I found this song on the live at the 9:30 Club on 11/20/06
I have it as track 14 (unknown title) but found a corrected set list that has it listed at 17. (Scroll to bottom)

Does anyone have more info on the song? I searched for lyrics on 3 different search engines, as well as here.

Is this an original, or one of her many beautiful covers, and if so who is the original by?

Also I posted this song on here:

Thanks for your time

The original is by Otis Redding. You can find it on this (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:1kq7g40ttv1z). There's also a properly recorded studio version of it by Chan on Cat Power's eMusic Session EP (http://www.emusic.com/album/10962/10962465.html).

These lyrics are from the KCRW recording (really excellent quality) from 09/12/2006.

Remember me
Don’t ever forget me, child
We are all only here
Just for a little while

You remember that guy,
That guy you were dating?
He broke your heart
And then just walked away

Yes you did now

You remember when you were sick
You were crippled, and you were lame
I stood by your bedside
‘Til you were on your feet again

Yes I did now

You were tired,
And you wanted to be free
I need someone
To stand just right by me

All day and all night
Again and again and again
Can't stop now, no

With you my life, my life
Has been so wonderful
I need your love
I need you to hold
All day and all night

Remember me
Don't ever forget me child
We are all only here
Just for a little while
Please
Please
Remember me

This song is so beautiful. I really hope it makes it onto the next Covers record.
