Kacey was very respectful in her accompaniment. Her voice is so powerful, and John's doesn't project like it did before the throat cancer. She just added a soft harmony on the refrain without overpowering him. I love to see these "passing of the torch" duets, like John playing with Sturgill Simpson at the 2016 Grammy Awards.
I think everybody deserves somebody like John Prine in their life. Just look at the way he looks at Kacey at 2:35 Its like a proud dad moment and its goddamn beautiful
Unfortunately for me I did not discover John Prine until after he died. It is a revelation to now experience his wonderful music, his wit and his big heart. RIP John Prine
What distinguishes Prine from other great songwriters is his deep empathy for ordinary people. I feel his message because I'm ordinary. Another song like this is Our Town by Iris Demint.
This is exactly why I scroll through comments ; little Nuggets like yours . Not sure if this is the video you had in mind ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-b9IUj1mDENg.html But, you're Spot On with your suggestion . Thank You.
How the hell can a person go to work in the morning , come home in the evening and have nothing to say. The first time I heard that , I thought you must have met my father. RIP JOHN .
What makes this so tough is the recognition of how fragile life is. He flies with his wife to Europe and back at just the wrong time. If he’d been home, his family would have been likely able to keep him safe....such a shame. Makes me angry and sad at the same time
I was 5 years old when I lived in Montgomery, Alabama a white son of a USAF officer & my mother, a house wife on Dec. 1, 1955. I'm sure you're asking why I say this 😊 In my opinion, Rosa Parks was The Angel from Montgomery. Yes, John Prine was one of my favorites to listen to often.
Although the years have made john an old man, his voice is still young and fresh. its hard watching my childhood hero's grow old! i know its gonna happen to all of us but if hes getting old that means i am too!
This has always been my favorite song...but for some reason this version made me cry. Out of nowhere. That right there is how you know it’s good, boys. Makes you feel somethin.
I went to school in Muhlenberg County down by the Green River where Paradise lay"" in 1965 when my dad worked at "Paradise". John speaks to my soul. I love you John. You were my constant companion.
John Prine. A true American treasure. He is not dead he is just on the other side of town. R.I.P. John . You have no idea how many people you have inspired . You will never be forgotten.
I grew up in Canada, and heard John Prine for the first time when I was around 19 years old,by far he is my favorite performer. My love. For this man’s music I have past down to my kids , it is our cooking music. ,and our comfort music. John is a amazing man and will live on, he is my ultimate favorite. God bless him he will live on through my family
I searched for the artist of this song, without a title or many words to go by and before google lol. It took me almost 10 years to find out it was an artist I had loved for years. Just somehow slipped past my ears.
I fell in love with him and his music back in the seventies, have to say he stole my heart with lake marie. Love and miss you Mr. John Prine. Thank you
Shortly after John's passing, a Danish friend who doesn't like country music, said to me: hey, you ever heard John Prine's songs? Nope, I haven't, who is him anyway? Better find him on youtube, so I did and instantly became hooked for life to John's masterpieces and great sense of humor . Shame I didn't find him in the early years when I though the Brothers Four, The Kingston Trio, Jim Reeves, Hank Williams and and few more were all that existed to country music. It was in Spain, I was 21 and it was 1961. Had to wait for 50 years to be told about the existence of John Prine. Even people who don't like country music are aware of John Prine's greatness.
Ty, Kacey Musgraves for introducing me to John Prine. Clicked on your song, wanna burn one with John Prine in Jan 2020 only to lose him 3 short months later☹️ My favorite radio show on Sundays called Sunday Morning Coming Down plays alot of his songs
John Prine was one of a kind you don't I rarely meet people liked him on the street sure wish I could because I know it would be a treat you can make me smile I can make you laugh now that he's gone I Cry he's the best of the entertainers and that's a fact may you rest peacefully up in God's hands because God made someone special a man who can reach your heart and touch your soul we're going to miss you dearly John but your music I will never let go
I enjoyed listening to John Prine for years and sang Spanish Pipedream many times to my children when they were growing up. They bought me tickets to see John at the Fox (11-17-17) for my 70th birthday (9-15-2017). It was one of the best concerts I have ever attended. Kacey was outstanding. Long live John Prine through his timeless messaging, poetic genius and musical legacy. Travis picking, here I come.
Just lost my cousin to a car accident and he loved himself some prine, hope that angel from whycocomagh is up there singing every word to fish and whistle ❤️
