John in my book is as great a song writer or maybe greater the Bob Dylan at least i think so.

@nomadjeff1922 4 года назад

John Prine has died and I don't know what to say. I had tickets to see John and Emmy Lou Harris at The Wolf Trap National Park in Vienna, Va. in June with my best friend. I've never been able to see him live and was looking so forward to this concert. I would have given up every concert I would have attended in the future for John to be alive and I would have never seen him in concert. I miss you already John. The song "Paradise" is about Paradise coal fired electrical production plant operated by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and the Peabody Coal Company mines coal for them. I started school in Muhlenberg County (Greenville , Ky.) in 1965 while my dad worked (TVA) where John talks about. I left a few years later, but always felt the connection when I heard John sing "Paradise". John actually grew up in Chicago and his parents were from Kentucky. A very common migration for people in those days. I traveled the world and John was always with me. I'm not much of a hero worshiper, but when I get to heaven........I want to see that band John and I hope you're on your third Vodka and Ginger-Ale. Let's fire up that smoke nine miles long! As Kacey Musgraves said, I would have loved to burn one with John Prine. Good bye my friend. I hope you know how many times I listened to your songs in some God forsaken place and you lifted my spirits. And God, if you're listening......well never mind. If John made it, maybe I will. :)

Da da da da da da, da da da da da because this old man is going to Town Now I’m playing his songs and singing them too get closer too him . I’ll see him one day and maybe he will let me sing along with him. Either way, I’m singing along with him while I’m still on Earth. Knowing he is in Heaven , I’m not afraid to die.

Loved John Prine for over 40 years. He certainly had a way with words and making creative songs. He had a way of making funny subjects serious and serious subjects funny. Saw him many times through the years and each concert was different but the same, if you know what I mean. His song, "Onomatopoeia" from years ago actually got my son an A+ in English his senior year in high school (92). He had to define what onomatopoeia meant and he wrote the whole lyrics from John's song to explain what it meant. By the way, he didn't plagiarize the words he had written. He wrote in small letters at the end on the right hand side of his paper "by John Prine." RIP John.

When I was a teen and into my early 20's and partying constantly, my best friends dad used to smoke one with us some boring nights when nothing was going on. We would constantly talk about music and how he(friends dad) wrote songs and even sent one to Willie Nelson that Willie sang at a local show. One guy he would constantly ramble on about was John Prine. He played him one night when I was lit and I could barely hear it and what I heard sort of reminded me of Bob Dylan whom I detest listening to lol. Years later , actually last year, I decided to give Prine another chance one night when I was bored on RU-vid and holy shit did I enjoy him! Kinda funny how things change. Hope John gets better! He has the virus I hear . Hope we get to enjoy him some more when this is all over.
