Need help identifying a song in the film


Not sure what rock I was under, but I only discovered this documentary about a week ago. Was watching it and came across a scene just over 23 minutes in, where Martie is telling the story of why Emily plays the banjo to the RHCP drummer. In the background of that scene, Emily is playing the banjo for a song with Natalie singing. I can't make out any of the words. I figured it must be on Taking The Long Way, but I still cant place it. Does anyone know what song this is????

Thanks in advance, this is driving me crazy!

OMG, I totally want to know what the name of that song is too. I've been searching for this song for the past two years and I have half a mind to write to the DC themselves to see if they wouldn't mind identifying the song. The melody is beautiful and Emily's banjo playing is so beautiful. I can't believe they did not even put it in the credits. Tthe scene was long enough to include it.

If anyone has any info on this please let us know. I'm on youtube too trying to enlist people to help out with this. LOL.

Everytime I watch this movie I come to this part and hear her playing and it's so pretty. I hope somebody can answer this question too.

It almost seems like a song they were recording that didn't make the cut for an album... I wish it did!

I THINK I FOUND OUT WHAT IT IS!!! I myself have also been trying to figure this out, I have listened to all their songs, ALL OF THEM, to see if I could identify it but none of their songs on any of their studio albums, or other albums, matched. Yesterday I found out of 3 songs that the Chicks managed to keep so well hidden. The first, was The Neighbor (you hear this song during the credits.)The other 2 were bonus songs if you pre-ordered Taking The Long Way on either iTunes or Best Buy, they were "Live Wire" and "Thin Line". You can find them on YouTube.com. If you listen closely to the intro to "Thin Line" you can clearly hear it is our mystery song. :D I am very excited...
