About 6 years ago I was working at a Drug and Alcohol rehab in Cookeville Tennessee. I had attended the same rehab a few years before. I play guitar and occasionally a client would ask me to play when it came time for them to go back out into a world that is geared toward their destruction. That is unless they personally change their way of thinking and living. Not an easy task. But doable. A young man asked me to play something different from what I had played before. That night I learned This River. The next evening I played and sang to the best of my ability. That song became our anthem. I wish I could say that young man survived his disease, but he didn’t. The process of learning and performing This River and The Sun is Shining changed me and I’m sure others for the better. Melissa and I got to see JJ and Mofro later that year at The Caverns. I had forgotten about these songs and JJ’s phenomenal performance until tonight. I have drifted away from recovery and all the worthwhile endeavors brought about by living life on life’s terms. I lost my Dad June 22nd 2022. And my Mom 3 months later. Due to my addiction I missed the opportunity to grieve their passing. I miss them every day. Tonight I listened to both these songs and my heart broke. I am not proud of the way I am living. But these songs reminded me that I am alive and the sun shines even in my darkness. And as long as I live I can open up and allow that sun to shine through me. I think maybe it’s time to go back to that rehab. JJ’s passion inspires me as much if not more, now than ever. It will be a while before I can possibly sing these songs without tears drowning my words. Thank you JJ Grey. And thank you God. I don’t know if anyone will ever read this but for the first time in a long time I have a plan
God bless you, man. God bless us all that went down that road. I have been clean 4 years, 2 months & 23 days. After a 30 year addiction to opiates. Heroin & Fentanyl being the very worst. Its a daily struggle but i have finally gotten over any cravings, except Cocaine. What can i say. I dont indulge in that too much, but i aint got no monkey on my back anymore. I have dedicated my life to my family. I now have money to help them if they need it. Something i never had b4. Ok. Enough of the crybaby shit. Hang in there, dude. You are worth it!!!✌️💙🤘
I am a 54 year old truck driver, lost my grandfather when I was just in the 9th grade, in that short time he taught me how to hunt fish live off the land and how to be a man, until now I never grieved... I heard this song for the first time just now...& I finally grieved like never before! and I just wanted to say thank you, thank you so much, your music is incredible,... passionate, and heartfelt beyond belief, God Rest Your Soul grandad and thank you once again
I found a picture of my grandfather and me today and stopped to hear this song as the sun sets. I'm a couple of years younger than you. Our grandparents were made of something really special. They don't make people like that anymore.
i just had that moment after 5 years of never ending hell. I’m ALIVE and im feelin loved and feelin fine!! Whoever reads this, i love you fellow human !!
Heard this song, an 'this river',, an took a deep breath, an laid my 40 cal down on my pillow,, my depression allmost cost me my life,,, but music is food for the soul,, im on meds now an they seem to be workin,,,💯😎💪
Oh James , I’m so incredibly proud of you man ! If you ever feel like talking, I’m a female from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦, who cares . If you need a friend day or night man , I’ll be there for you . Sometimes, we don’t have people who really don’t understand. Ohhh man ,you are strong. So happy you shared that story with us all . ✌🏾@❤️🇨🇦. My name is Michele. XO Hang Tight James . Unbelievable man , way to go !
Yeah, man. JJ is about as good as as it gets. I've seen him about 12 times. The best was in Thomasville, GA. The only bad show I saw was at Celebrate 450 in St. Augustine. They brought in a bunch of of back up singers, and it wasn't rehearsed. It was just bad.
JJ Grey.. you nailed it brother. Today is six long months since I lost my wife. I have several playlist to remind me of her. This song has brought me close to her many times. It rips me to the soul, bares my heart, and sometimes hurts like hell..but that is such a small price to pay to feel close to her. ...THX. Linda Nelson💞remembered,loved,missed💞
I don't know about that, some songs can bring me to tears, like a dagger straight through my heart.... And some, will instantly make you smile, or dance,. ..just like there is a reason for every season we have to go through in life,...there is always a song you can find to match how you feel exactly at that moment. Music is my therapy!
My Daddy recently had an accident and suffered a brain injury he would never recover from. We took him off the ventilator and sleep with him for what was that last 9 hours left with him in his hospital bed. We listened to this song and the entire album for 9 hours until he passed. This song on repeat many times. This was my Dads favorite music so we blasted it as loud as possible that night. I listen to this song everyday on my way to work. I miss Daddy so much. You have no idea how much your music meant to us that night -Dennis Craig Hill 04/10/61-07/28/2015
I feel for your loss...it's amazing how much music can mean to us, I had already been thinking this would be a beautiful song to sing at a funeral or memorial
I went thru the exact thing with my father. I lived @ the hospital with my step mother the entire time. I only left twice bc I had a 2yo @ home. When I wasn't sitting with my daddy I was listening 2 music. I stumbled across Beth harts a change is gonna come. I remember everything like it was yesterday & that was over 2yrs ago. I've just discovered him & stumbled across your comment. It's crazy how ppl go thru the same exact things sometimes. That experience was 1 of the worst & hardest things 2 date. Having a living will helps. It sucked having 2 help make that decision 2 take him off support. I too tried 2 play any & all songs I knee that he liked. From 1 broken heart 2 another.
My Lord, God bless you, I'm happy that your daddy had someone like you, and others that loved him, loved him like words cannot describe ~ love like that is what makes life so precious, and, so worth living ~
Bad to the bone in concert is a hell of a musician who is from the great state of Florida .Got sum of those amazing lyrics and a down to earth kind of man.
Unconditional LOVE ... I pray for peace guidance and strength.this I ask for all ..for myself I humble ask that the pain in my heart quits for it weighs me down and weakens me .ty and amen .
I will admit to being an emotional creature, but no singer/band has ever evoked such strong feelings from me. His music puts a smile on my face and gives me a warm feeling in my sole. My wife and I make it to almost every show he does in the Denver area. JJ, if you ever read any of these comments, I want you to know l LOVE YOUR MUSIC!!!
Ya know I notice alot of people saying how Is JJ not as popular as he should be. I like it that way. I feel like he is singing directly to me with every word. He touches my soul like no musician has ever done before. What I wouldn't do to sit down for just an hr and talk to this guy. Not many people may know about them or listen to them but I thinks that helps keep his music pure and untouched.
I hear you. Some of my favourite bands are unknown, obscure, no one knows who they are. I LOVE that. I love going to see them in some hole in the wall venue. It’s much better than going to see a band in a big venue.
@Triz Trizzy i swear. he feels every note. efery word. a s that makes e feel itcas well. and the bad partcis that as soon as i heard hin on here? i started teiiing all my friends ahout him. guess wat tbey said? oh. j.j. grey? we already saw him at such and such club 5 yrs ago. well. dam. such great friends lol no. ouch
I know what your talking about, he is a great musician who puts his heart and soul in his music, when I first heard him, I was like I love this, it's different, JJ made his music his own✌️ We're stingy when we find things we love, such as JJ 🤔🥰
I'm not gonna lie. This is The most beautiful song I've ever heard. Chills. And tears Wow this man can get to you way down deep in your soul. I'm a new fan. God bless you, man.
Death is not our greatest loss. Our greatest loss is what dies inside us while were still breathing. You realized this J. YOUR STILL ALIVE. Never doubt that. Stsy rightous. Stay humble. Heres to ya
Ironic I lost my baby brother to a 24 yr war with cancer and I'm so hurt,I'm a otr truck driver and been alone for 2 months now trying to come to grips with loosing my friend and this song popped up one day while I was crying and driving with radio cranked and it's been playing over and over for four days now this guy is a genious thank you for such heart felt music
This is possibly one of the greatest live performances I've ever seen. Greys singing, his guitar work and the raw emotion you can see in him as he sings and plays those solos. Then there at the end, where he walks off and let's the Saxophone and Trumpet go and finish it off. Beautiful.
I came close recently to losing it all after neck surgery. I had multiple stroke 11 days after and had it gone south, I would not be here today. This song just spoke to my soul. The intensity of it brought tears to me. I'm very thankful God gave me another chance to stay a little longer. Jj's voice is so powerful and his music hits deep in my soul. I thank God for that. Keep singing, man.
Because he is a simple man, playing his beautiful music and to hell with charts and awards. Go listen to "The River". It is my favorite along with this one..........
Sadly because because people today are more into nice shiny brain rotting junk like anything Kardashian and Kanye than anything of substance like this.
Between this and " the river" I'm at a loss for words. Music like this is so rare these days. I feel like these songs should've been on an Otis Redding album back in the day. Love this. Just amazing.
Been going thru some stuff,watching my 91 year old my slowly letting go and caring for her as best I can,losing my most beloved and loyal dog of 14 years 2 weeks ago and listening to both songs back to back on repeat all day....dang JJ.....thank you💕💕💕💕
I am a musician, Ive written songs and played for over 45 years. But .. the first time I heard JJ sing this it put me on the floor with my mouth open in amazement. Its one of those songs that come along once in a very very long time that just pierce you through and through. God gave JJ this to dedicate to his Grandparents and what they experienced that day he died on the way to the hospital. JJ puts his heart and soul into this song.. more so than just about any other he does. God Bless JJ..
It's one of those rarities that brings you on home and grounds your feet to stabilize and nurture your soul to bring a smile to your face as it works it's way to a tilt toward the sun with arms wide open and eyes wide closed.
He is unbelievable you've been doing this for all those years but I'll see him in the middle of nowhere North Florida the Big Bend area when I had a house up there with my family and then big things on the river the problem is society well we all love him but you don't get to hear him and everybody forgets him we got to figure out where he's at now Tesla from when I was a kid of course they're going to keep going around forever and ever and ever but it's sad that JJ Gray and mofro come even way back when it's just cuz there's not a big following there is but not enough for the market Tesla will always be going everywhere until they can't stop but great songs like JJ Gray and so many others in this world nobody ever number one gets behind them and tries to help them number two it's too nice and too deep it's too real it needs to be unhappy or sexual or crazy or what the hell you know what I mean but that's okay let the people that know who he is always pushes music forward I will send it to one of these people that are reaction you know what I mean they listen to stuff one guy says I never heard of Johnny Cash that's pretty sad he's even he has to be 30 something the deal is whoever sent him the stuff and everything they send is not the original there's so much better on every one of these like Chris Stapleton or whatever but the deal is Johnny Cash that was Kurt Cobain's song well you're extremely right this is the man said he's hurting in this yeah well oh my goodness it's hard to understand how people don't listen to anything except for one thing cuz I heard all kinds of different songs that was mainstream that one time but you're only going to listen to rap
This song speaks to my soul.. I want this to be one of my songs played after I pass from this life .... amazing!! Glory Hallelujah!!🙏❤️🙏 October 23 2021
Today would have been my brother's birthday. Would have been 56. Died a month and a half ago. I don't write this for sympathy or likes. I want to shout out to my sister-in-law. Now she's on her own with three kids. God bless your heart and keep them safe.
Glory Glory Hallelujah the sun is shining down ... about 4 years ago now me and 3 close friends bought some bad dope...I woke up paralyzed from the neck down...three years and two nursing homes later im on my feet and I finally made it home only to find that my friends aren't coming home...they all passed and I struggle to stand daily but music gives me strength... Here's to the truth.. what's done in dark will always be brought to the light... just 3 months clean now and I'm trying to figure out what to do with myself.. today im sitting in the sun enjoying this beautiful song and thinking about my friends...thanks jj...
Just listened to this song and it always takes me to a place of peace and I am thankful for the little things. Reading through all of these comments and I hit yours and It hit me like a ton of bricks. So sorry about your friends. Stay strong. Another band that has been helping me is The Red Clay Strays.
Thank you for your thoughtfulness and and your musical suggestions sometimes I wonder were they are as I WALK past there house's maybe they walk with me maybe they don't IDK.. one thing I do know TIME DOES NOT HEAL-ALL WOUNDS and this song can really beat me up on some days.. I've watched this and listened and I noticed something about this video when he leaves the stage it's not him giving the band there time it's that he can't take it anymore and he's crying if you look close you can see him give way to the emotion..it's just to strong some days ...
I'm using someone else's youtube account to post on here (I hardly EVER comment on youtube). The love of my life died 8 days ago. We'd known one another since we were 13....life went in opposite ways for us for many,many years. We both married other people and did love them. But we always sort of kept in contact. Anyway...I can't write our life story on here but we were both from Jacksonville and LOVED JJ Grey and Mofro. He just sounds of......Florida if that makes any sense. Plus he's immensely talented. Anyway. I lost him and this song....this song makes me think of him. So, thank you. We always wanted to go see these guys in concert. Never going to happen now, but maybe one day if I can I'll so myself in his honor. No clue if this band even reads this stuff (wouldn't blame you if you didn't there is usually so much bullshit on here). But again you guys ever read this...you've made an impact on this woman's life. Must does not always do that.. So......thank you.
kidhuman. - It's incredible, soul touching, to have music that can take your breath away, pull your heart, bring you to feel the love you felt with a love who has passed. The love of my life passed 3 yrs ago now. Tho his body is no longer here, his soul in spirit, his love remains with me. The song that can bring me there, David Grohls acqustic Everlong.
kidhuman I hope you Have gone to a show by now. If not, go and think of your love and celebrate his memory. JJ is an emotional performer and this song will fill your heart and turn your pain into smiles and acceptance. God bless you and your friend.
My friend that faught in Afghanistan turned me on to this song. He rarely spoke as all his comrades were killed in war. The song brought me to tears. I love him for it. I hope Joeseph Kloby is alive today. #Veteranpurpleheartrecipient
I have loved this song for a while now, and it has carried me through some difficult times. I'm not going to be the hipster asshole that gets irrationally mad when their favorite song suddenly blows up due to a popular t.v show because I honestly feel that HoC integrated this song beautifully into their series. This song is gorgeous and uplifting and it deserves the recognition that this phenomenal series brought to it. Thank you JJ Grey & Mofro and thank you Frank Underwood
Christine Wells, I saw jj in Grand junction CO couple yrs ago. A lil girl 9 yes old sat in front row singing every song word for word. She'd lost her dad recently, jj was his favorite. Very emotional and powerfull night. LOVE has no boundaries, thank you jj
I lost my mom to covid. This song has helped with the loss of a very important and spiritual person. Fair winds and following seas Mom. Till we meet again, siempre estarás en mi corazón mamá.
OMG! OMG! OMG! He's FINALLY coming to St. Paul, MN!!!!!!! I'll get to see him and his marvelous band for the first time!!!! March 20, 2024. Glory, Glory, Halleluiah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My mama,daddy, grandson and husband of 28 yrs and 2 sisters. Have all gone to heaven it's been over this yr to 32 yrs since they've passed. I listen to this song several times a day. I thank you JJ for this song. You have no idea the comfort it brings me. Renee
My dad took me to my first JJ Grey show at Skippers Smokehouse. Met him there when I was real young, still have a signed wallet from the Country Ghetto album. This song reminds me of my my childhood with my dad and grandma(who passed a few years ago). Makes me cry every time I hear this song
Also Brandy Clark if u like country women she only wrote songs for the longest time. Then started singing them. Wrote better dig two for the band Perry. Love her.
the day we buried my nine year old sister it was dark clouds and thunder till the sermon at the grave and the angels blew the clouds away for the rays of the sun to warm the hearts of the mourners. When it was over... the rain poured down...
Even after I heard this song several times now whenever I hear it rivers of tears start pouring. amazing singer amazing band great performance by everyone. I’m incredibly appreciative towards the people that recorded this and allowed those of us that weren’t their live to experience this moment.
My son passed away last year and I listen to this song almost every morning, i saw JJ grey warm up for the Doobie brothers a few years back and new there was something special about him.
I love this song so much 🥰 Thankyou JJ for writing it ! This is my husbands and I many songs for the soundtrack to our marriage! We were driving after getting engaged to Mobile and played this for me and sang it to me changing the first Glory to Lori and it made my heart melt so much when I learned this was about your grandparents love and last conversation it made me think about how I want to just grow old with him and hold hands in a rocking chair when we’re old and grey ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Like wise! I have seen him live a hand full of times and it by far outshines his studio recordings! His energy is amazing and overflows onto the entire crowd! He is incomparable!
My sister and I saw JJ and Mofro in Biloxi during a tornado. Not many people came out and it was the best time she and I ever had. He's got so much heart for music and his fans. Even the police were dancing with all of us!
This music, the lyrics truly touch the inner soul of this girl. As a young woman losing her mother to Cancer 18 years ago and then being a Cancer survivor of 4 years myself, I know what's it's like to ask and then answer that same question, but with my faith in God above, I shall hang on as long as he shines that Sun down on me.

Quite possibly my anthem. I drove that road in southern WV at 90mph bringing PaPas meds to the hospital for the last time. 24hrs later my Grandma was there when he took his last breath. Dad and I were on our way back from a short break. THANK YOU. I really needed this on my 60th birthday.
"How many more days can you hold out, How much longer can you wait?" she asked. There was a time I thought I, I could answer But my tongue gets tied as my thoughts drift away. Glory, Glory - Hallelujah The sun is shining, shining down Glory, Glory - Hallelujah I'm alive and I'm feeling, feeling fine All those simple thoughts all those peaceful dreams, Share the space with a hard worked, hard worked day But it's the little things, the little things not expectation That make life worth living, worth living. Glory, Glory - Hallelujah The sun is shining, shining down Glory, Glory - Hallelujah I'm alive, and the world Lord, world is fine Glory, Glory - Hallelujah The sun is shining, shining down Glory, Glory - Hallelujah I'm alive and I'm feeling Lord, feeling, feeling, feeling fine.
JJ is no doubt the best. He has it all. Thank God he is alive ~ his music has brought me joy, happiness, and it makes me think of the good in life! God Bless 💗

You were here in my hometown and WE missed you! For YEARS, I've personally wanted more than anything to come see you all perform!!! As a single mom I've already raised 3 Daughter's & have a business here in NW Florida....you came during spring break. Dude I'm old & this is my busiest time of the year. I wanted to cry when I found out today you were here. I just found out today that you were at Whale's Tail in Miramar Beach April 2022. I live in Fort Walton Beach. My heart was BROKEN! Even my daughters were super frustrated that you all performed & none of us knew. 2 of my daughter's live in Kansas but when I told them you were here we all just phone tagged our love for you! love you JJ Grey & MoFro!!!!! We love so much your art & music & your amazing voice. How can we make our dream happen? My girls grew up listening to you while I was on my own growing a business - teaching my girls integrity. Your music was real in our everyday lives. God is Good. Family is Life! The next time you all are in our neck of the woods please let my business accommodate your stay and please give me and my daughters front row seats! We'll pay of course! ....so close. Please let me know when you guys come back!!!!
Every now and then I come back to this video because the album version just doesn't live up to the sheer amount of soul that is laid down here. I can scroll through the comments, and it's affecting people differently but boy do we know that it hits something special that we can not explain, a memory, a loved one, hell it even saved a man his life. I've been trying to replicate this both acoustic and on my Les Paul, but this is one of the few ones that no matter how hard you try you can not embark on the same emotional journey you get when this plays. I mean, look at this mans face when playing the solo. It is by no means a hard guitar solo, but he lets it take him on a journey and even whispers "okay" to his guitar as he lets the notes ring and echo through eternity. I guess the first statement of what it actually meant, at first nothing but then evolving to be the ultimate love letter of an old soul to another. It sends shivers down my spine every time, in which only true music can and I stand humbled, grateful, and for a few minutes at peace with life cause, no matter the current circumstances, you know that if you find this type of serenity it will all be worthwhile. Peace.
As a Florida native,born and raised in Auburndale, Polk county, FL. I live on the same lake I learned to swim in. I don't dare swim in it now. That's..what we are losing. Thank you JJ for letting everyone know, not all Floridians are from New Jersey. ❤
I'm new to JJ💖 One of the few Things that were positive re : The Covid Pandemic. I watched waaayyyyyy more music. Which happens to be the soul of my heart. I don't know what I'd do without my passion and love for it. And to watch a video like this.......! That's some passion ❣️ I First discovered the song "This River', and I'll be quite honest, it was at a horrible time in my thinking, but it brought me comfort. Now I'm happier than I've been in a Very Long Time! So just listening to the instrumental, the horns,.... .The crescendo! The Audience 💖☮️☯️
Never heard JJ until tonight looking up tickets for the Blues Travelers. Never have I watched a RU-vid video with 0 dislikes and this is the second one of JJ's in a row. That says a lot.
So heartbreaking & yet so very beautiful ,my gosh what a performance just amazing, all of them are spot on ,I can't say enough to compliment this artist.
Had the pleasure of seeing JJ with Blackberry Smoke in July in Virginia......I also cannot put into words how he made us feel at his concert. I wouldn't of wanted to go on behind him, they were some big shoes to feel....
Ain't that the truth, man. I got chills all over my body & I want to cry but I dont know why. This dude is AMAZING. He has a new fan right here. A big ole crybaby. ✌❤🤘
I've seen JJ 7 times since I first heard "Light A Candle" 4 years ago!! Every show is like the first! When you think it can't get any better, it does!!!
Thank be to God , for his guidance, for having the blessing to be with loved one who passed. Wisper in ear , forgiveness, go to the light, so they can cross over. They can hear you for a hour. They will not feel alone !
I followed the same route as the rest of you. House of Cards led me here. Stopped the shop after I heard this song. It rekindled that passion for music I had when I was younger. I had to find the source and pay my respects. That feeling doesn't hang around that often the older I've gotten. JJ Grey - you did well with this song. Good job.
I gave very specific instructions this is the song i want played at my funeral. The soulful vocals and lyrics by JJ. The trumpets of the angels bringing me to heaven. I'll show up in my swimsuit and flip flops, sing with choir, check no bags, and bow down and kiss the ring of God and then rest in paradise.
21 years old, already have it in my legal will that this song will play as the last song at my funeral, no matter when that will be. So much soul in this song it's impossible for the patrons to not feel along with it.
Love it !!!! What a tearful time I have listening to this song as I never married and have no kids and cry for the next generation as this world is going down hill at light speed ! Love like this is very rare these days , so if you find it hold on too it and cherish it
Holy shit, I dont think I've ever seen that much emotion put into a performance. Sitting here thinking about the pain someone I know is going through losing his daughter to cancer at the tender age of 15 and lemme tell you, this one got to my hardass self in a big way. All I've got is WOW!
This song is SO BEAUTIFUL .JJ does an excellent job of Singing this ❤️ Heartfelt & Powerful song .I’ve experienced losing Both parents to Alzheimer’s .My sister died in her sleep alone with no one & I lost my 15 yr old son to suicide .He had changed his mind but Paramedics could not save him . I never knew I was going to be SO ALONE in this big scary world . BUT HERE I AM . I’m alone . Lost my immediate family & GOD I MISS THEM ALL SO MUCH . Thankyou for this wonderful SONG .God Bless you JJ ✝️❤️🎉💐
My Son David and I absolutely love your music... that was our thing when he came over to visit we always put on RU-vid and watch videos... we would always play The river and The sun is shining down... but we listen to all of your songs... But those two definitely were our favourites... on May 25th 2018 I played the songs at his funeral... It is what he would have wanted.
❤ Reminds me so much of my grandparents. Oh how I miss them. How I have missed myself since they been gone. Love everything J J Grey touches, like most precious memories of my life in every song. Thank you this really hits me such a sad but good way. ❤
