Ashley Cooke - it's been a year (Official Music Video) 

DEFINITELY a stand out among all the female country artists! This song is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL ♥️

Ashley Cooke kinda came out of nowhere and now she’s one of the hottest artists out there (in more ways than one). Another absolute hit!

This song is hitting so hard. I just started focusing on my health and I have been keeping my head down, grinding and I feel bad for missing out on my loved ones 😢💔 but it's been a good one because I'm focusing on me

Ashley, as a guitarist of 30yrs, this song moved me in a way very few can. Your raw emotion in your sound is magnetic. PLEASE listen to me and never lose those roots! SO many country music stars today succumb to the pressure and become elite snobs that no one enjoys. Maintaining those roots are what will separate you. Keep it real. I just want to hug you and be on team Ashley. It doesn't help that this song was sent to me as I am the "guy they should have fought for"...lol Stay grounded and you will fly!

My God, I've never cried so hard listening to a song in my life. This has got to be a song so many can relate to. This should be #1

It’s been a year … I am so grateful for this song here in Canada’s … I have listened to it on repeat . To help me get ready for the day , to help me summum up the energy to continue raising three amazing sums , to have family and friends in my home , to make advertising content for a business to dealing with a house falling apart and needing Reno’s , to picking up a mangled family pet hit by a truck, all by myself,! and shelter my sons from that view , to establishing making money to keep us afloat to The absolute love of my life ripping apart the life I thought we had , in minutes . And you don’t just “ un love “ someone because they left you , and left you in the biggest kind of way an entire community had to bear witness , and the countless minutes of every hour it took for me to wake up and continue paying the bills , getting a brand new company off the ground, working shifts as a Registered Nurse to pay the bills and invest in my company of one employee ( me) and raise three strong kind gentle sons to be great humans , ya it’s been a year … to make sure life continues when you just want to crawl under a rock, the biggest line in this song for me “ its a did a lot more than I thought I could one” … folks out there .. know this , you can do it … you just get up dress up show up and do it … you cry in every shower in every morning but then you just push it and play this song … and then I looked up and realized that last week , it’s been a year . Since I seen his face , since I had the person who made me laugh harder than anyone , walk out my door and into another and not look back …it’s been a year since I couldn’t take a deep breath, since I watched myself build a company work hard as an RN, continue to raise three strong, kind sons, make sure they had all the love and seen strength and dignity and grace … it’s been a year. This is THE song and honestly pulled me back from all the ledges. It’s true what everyone says folks, it’s time and it’s inner strength and it’s definitely this song … this writer and singer of this song, you’ll have no idea what ledges it’s kept me off and now I listen to it with melancholy and exhale … you did good… one of the most intimate songs for so many folks in loves that get really shuffled sometime! From here in Canada , I love this and you 💗

I used this song for my 2022 recap on IG. It sums up perfectly the highs and lows that I had. Thank you for capturing many of our emotions in such a beautifully written song. ❤

Wow I’ve never had a song I’ve felt was written for my present life before! I’m speechless and at the same time motivated! I’m a huge fan, thank you for sharing your talent with us!

Wow this is definitely a song I needed to hear, going through a year of ups and downs this sure gives home for a better year ahead. Can’t wait to hear more songs!!!

its amazing how time flies by sometimes the best thing we can all do is stop and realize what a good year its been and even with me this song hits and amplfies even further memories are powerful but when you realize when your grinding in life how much just flashes by so quick its crazy sometimes but its good always good to look back

So happy that RU-vid recommended this artist to me, her album is amazing.

Wow, what a great song...Thanks Ashley for blessing us with such introspection...Love it!!

i lost my mama in 2022 and when i found this song i found something that summed up one of the hardest years i’ve ever gone through.

This song describes my first year adulthood. I turn 19 next week. 365 record lows and record highs wascery relatable

Superstar. Every year seems to be a “It’s been a year”.

It’s been a year got outta 13 months in 5 county jails in Three states….stayed clean a year than hit the whiskey and weed again. I been behaving staying outta custody about to move to Okc Oklahoma to buy a house. Hope Gods good to all of y’all.

Yup!!! Beat cancer, and im on a weight loss journey. Fighting to keep my marriage together. Life is beautiful, but sometimes its hard

It was one year from my Mom passing away on 2/11/2022. It’s been a hard year, many tears and a great void in my heart. You see who your real family is and I lost many of mine. It’s been a year of pushing forward even through darkness and self isolation to just get a grip on reality.

I absolutely love your music! This song has really touched my heart. I have had a difficult year, just trying to deal with everything that has happened to me. This song puts it in perspective. Thank you! Keep up the good work you are doing.

I just love all her songs.

This song is so beautiful!

I really don’t know how this hasn’t hit a million video streams I love this song

Cancer diagnosis, treatments, it's been a year.....thank you Ashley

Not sure if Ashley reads these comments, but she should. There are some very powerful stories. Great song that relates to more folks than the writers probably could even imagine. Best wishes and God bless!

Beautiful song! It’s been a year since losing my Momma! I’m still so lost without her being here!❤❤❤

Ashley, it's been one heck of a year for me. I started from leaving my home of 11 years because of some unpleasant circumstances caused by the ecology of the society in that house. Then being in the hospital and a crisis housing situation for close to a year just to get better, heal myself, no longer suffer from the same crisis, to survive what I went through, just to get into a whole new situation. That's life . And yes, that's one heck of a year for all of us

Came across this song on Instagram, what a perfect song to describe this year.

I lost my momma a year ago today 💔 this song hits so hard 💔 😢 lost my mamma in January but still got married in march and had my baby boy in October that I've been trying to have for 8 years. It's definitely been a year

Hope the rest of your year is good and 2023 is even better for you, Ashley! You look amazing in each of the outfits you wear in this video.

Your beautiful song helps me get through all I been through an yes it's been a year for me to now I'm ready to travel

Awesome song of the year

This song right here is a definition of my 2022, Debt, inflation, my Dad back and forth with his health, and my niece passed away.

What a wonderful song, beautiful guitar and words oh-so-true to heart and to life. Wow. Beautifull all the way around; thank you Ashley!

It’s been a year for me getting everything I lost back after a horrible decision that took almost everything from me. I’m still working on it happily, ALONE. I’m looking forward with excitement to whatever time I have left. I have always persevered and will continue…. To everyone here just remember, every day above grounds a good day, and a chance for a fresh start.❤

She's a great storyteller. Love her voice

Love seeing Fenway park

My grandparents spent 20+ years in Sarasota for winter for years, in 2002 I hugged my grandpa and I had a feeling when he left Iowa to go to Sarasota I wouldn’t see him again, he died in January of 2003 I never got to say goodbye 😢

Oooo my God I love this song. Kenya 254 represented

Amazing song , I love reading comments on songs like these, get to read other people's stories and know a little bit about thier journeys , and I Have some rough times but getting to read about other people's problems makes me realize my issued are pretty small on comparison, I pray everyone's journey gets better this year

Song always makes me cry….life always keeps moving forward and I feel it in this song….

One year today since that fateful May eclipse changed our lives forever!. 💔💔💔💔

i was looking for that meme song it’s been a year daddy

I love you and your music and this song hits all the right notes because its been a year. God bless you in all you set your hands too.

I love this 💓

Hey Ashley. I 'discovered' you only a month or so ago on IG. I didn't do much following of your music for a while until a couple weeks ago. Now I'm so hooked I can barely put my phone down. It's amazing how well you have been doing and the tours, the sold out concerts, the stars you have been meeting. I'm not an American so my chances of every getting to go to one of your concerts are negligible. I've been a Country fan like forever and still listen to and watch many of my favorites from days gone by. But I'm always watching social media for new talent. There are several but by far you top that list. Some of your songs really hit home and I can relate to them. Well done young lady. Wishing you only the very best for the future. Your star 🌟 is shining bright.

Love it Ash

Absolutely beautiful!!!! We needed this one :)
