My Daddy was a coal miner in West Virginia appalachian's. He only went to two movie shows in his whole life. Ten commandments. And coal miners daughter. We love you Ms. Lynn
I was raised in the backwoods of Appalachia. Spent many years of my life trying to get away and I did. Sometimes while I sit at my big desk and look down at the city below, I play Loretta Lynn to take me back to the place I miss now more than ever. RIP Loretta Lynn.
@@mickjagger8439 Back where my family is from its a slower way of life and it's not a rat race like in other states where people are just chasing the next dollar. It's very much more traditional there, the wife stays home and takes care of the chores around the house, taking care of the kids who aren't school aged yet and usually most families have chickens, the men go and work a 10-12 hour shift in the mines or drive a coal truck or something of the like. People care about their families more than money and it's a rarity in our modern times. There's good hunting and fishing, the best trails in the world for off-roading and has among the most beautiful landscape in North America. the required income to live comfortably is lower than the national average. The only real problem is finding a steady job, the mines pay very well but its hard to get a spot and every so often men are laid off because politicians are fighting to get the mines shut down so its a gamble. forestry is a good business if you get a good deal on the land, I'm thinking about going back, probably whenever i'm able to retire, I miss McDowell county WV.
I'm a Black woman and I always loved country and western music because it told stories I could identify with. Just as gospel songs and rap music tell stories that move me as well. RIP Loretta Lynn.
Your the first person that has refered to Country Music as Country and Western Music. That's what we grew up on. Thank you for remembering that the way it was.! My Mom and family grew up with Country and Western Music and our favorite was Loretta Lynn. Thank you for sharing!
I am a man yet I feel the song, too. My wonderful Grandma Belinda was truly a coal miners daughter during the 1920s and 30s in the countryside of West ''by God'' Virginia. Her son, my 93 yo Dad, tells me stories from those times nearly starving and being cold for years. The men worked all day in the mines and the women and children worked the fields. Rarely any proper schooling. Dad says he the family knew what they had to do to eat so not much complaining. Dad gets choked up when he remembers how his sweet dear mama and Grandmother and aunts would recite the bible and just keep working hard day after day. The men would make sure all the kids would get a good Christmas since they didn't have anything during the year. Like the song says... nothing lives there anymore, except the memories of a coal miners...
As a woman who was born and raised in back woods holler of Kentucky also, your songs played regularly in our home. RIP Loretta. my condolences to your family. 🕊YOU sure made KY proud! 🌹thank you!
I remember living like this. I spent my childhood trying to escape it and now my adult life trying to get back to it. Rest In Peace Loretta and thank you for such a beautiful song.
RIP Loretta Lynn 🌹 She was the Queen of Country. She touched so many lives and hearts with her music. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends. Go rest high on that mountain sweet lady. We will never forget you!
What a tremendous talent. A country singer who came up from poverty in a material sense but was rich with a family that had love and two committed parents.
If we would all decided for our self whats racist an whats not an stop assuming all whites hate blacks an an blacks despise whites an talk to eachother we would find the general public has been tv an internet fed lies an deception for many of years time to pull heads outta asses an move on from the bullshit an if we dont satan will always win iam far from a religious man but strings are bein pulled u want to b the puppet or the master¿
I’ve met this woman after she had already been famous from singing. And when I did it was when we was trading cows. She always stuck to her roots. She was out there in the fields working cattle working harder than the men. After she was famous and had money. One of the few real people let alone singers there was. Never was a sell out and sang nothing but truth. Always was humble and kind❤
My late wife was from Johnson City Tennessee. She used to sing this song all the time. I lost her in 2000. At only 48. This past January l went to her uncles funeral. I stopped by her grandparents old house. Abandoned. Sat and looked at it and thought about just how real this song is. Sad. Great memories. Miss her after being together from 69 to 2000. 😩❤️
So sorry bud. Life sure does suck when life throws wrenches at us like this. We are all here for a very short time. So we have to make the best of it with what we are handed. This life is only a test to see if we can live in the spiritual world of the kingdom of God. What is 60 years of this life compared to eternal life in the kingdom of God. God bless you my friend.
Unless you were raised poor, you might not understand the power of this song. She did not make this up. I am saddened that there are a couple of generations who don't "get" this song. Hardship is terrible when you endure it, but it is worth is when you overcome it. Thank you Loretta.
What brought me to this song "Super Password", the answer, Miss Loretta Lynn. Now, me myself, I'm an R n B born and bred music listener although I can remember when this song came out, and the spectacular performance of Sissy Spacek in her portrayal. Anyway, I decided to listen to this song, (I had only known the first line because, and her delivery of it❤) and remembering when, in the movie "Ray", where he talks about his love of country music because of the stories of them (my daddy loved country music too; me, as a kid 👎🏾👎🏾) and this song brought tears to my eyes 😢😭, and overwhelming joy, happiness, and appreciation for my dad! Both my parents came from very humble beginnings as well, surrounded in love of, and for each other, and in time, as things got better, he was able to do better for himself and his family. My dad had less than a 6th grade education but was THE SMARTEST! man I have ever known. His 89th birthday (02/14) is approaching, unfortunately I lost my dad 2 years ago, but yes, I too "get it"! In your comment I felt such a "kin" ship, that I had to reply. Thank you!!
Just randomly went to listen to Loretta for the first time in ages and realised she'd passed away. What an incredible lady she was, may she rest in peace.
I'm a farmer's granddaughter and the words of this song applies to him,as well. The farm house no longer stands, but the memories of this farmer's granddaughter ALWAYS will. Love you, grandpa!
I grew up on my great-grandparents farm. It's all been sold and houses and a post office are there now but I can't help but ride by and remember where the house was, where each barn and shed were. I remember playing in those woods and running through that creek. I'm glad that there are plenty of children in the neighborhood to enjoy it but I guarantee they won't have as much fun on that land as we did growing up.
@@greatmusicfan57 Thank you so much for your comment about Appalachian people. Far too often, people look down on us. We have a long, rich heritage, and are a tough, hard-working people. I'm proud to be Appalachian!
My mom has dementia but shes never forgot you. She adores you. Im her daughter and I play her your music its the only time she talks thank you Loretta for making my Momma smile.
Your story touched me. Such a sad disease. My grandmother had it and I believe my mother is in early stages. I'm glad she has something like Loretta's music and I can tell she is blessed to have you. God bless you.
Only 23 years old from jackson, ms when I say I’m so blessed my mama raised us on all kinds of music baby this is my jam and the movie ohh don’t even get me started ... I’ll choose this over this new generation music no offense but I just love the classic old school songs
Me....this is also my life story in the Philippines back then. We were 10 kids and my father was a coalman in the day and a fisherman in the night. When I was a teenager with suitors well I was pretty. Its the.men who witness what I was doing helping my dad to gather coal,they were the ones who were uncomfortable seeing me with a black face.
My grandpa used to love her. As a matter of fact we had two hens ones name was Loretta the other Lynn. Good tunes wish he was still here a good man who also lived a good and simple life. He sure did spoil the grand babies though even though he wasn’t our bio grandad
It don't matter if you're from Butcher Hollow, Kentucky; Ranger,West Virginia; Colony,Alabama; or Cornfield, Illinois. If you grew up poor and owe everything you got to the hard work of ur parents(or grandparents) you feel how deep this song is. Not having food and good clothes is struggling, not missing out on the next iPhone or having to buy a cheaper car.
Such an iconic singer, human being and humanitarian. Proud to be a coal miner's Granddaughter. Prayers for your family. Rest in Power Ms. Lynn, thank you for touching our hearts with your music. 😢😢❤️🙏
Hello 👋 Susan. How are you doing ? Hope are you fine. Im Scott Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from. You seem like a real country girl
Im from A coal mining city in England called Newcastle..And my mums dad was a coal miner from Killingworth so shes the coal miners daughter ... The people of Newcaslte are called Geordies and we are proud of are heritage...Great song this Howay the lads and love from The North east and Newcastle
Your American not Mexican American your American your heritage might be from mexico but you are American be proud to be one but also respect your heritage,
No joke. I'm Oklahoman, back during the Dust Bowl us Okies traveled all over doing migrant work picking in farms all over. Especially in California we got treated a lot like how Mexican immigrants get treated now. Nobody seems to think about that before they start talking about migrants nowadays though. It's a shame that we don't remember where we come from or what we been through back then.
Ryu Shiska You sound stupid. If he says he’s Mexican American then he is. That’s what Mexican American means when your from Mexico but are an American. MEXICAN AMERICAN. Don’t ever try to tell someone they’re not Mexican. 🇲🇽
The most beautiful voice in all music. My fellow Kentucky hillbilly. God gave us an amazing gift when he gave us Kentucky women. Especially Ms Loretta Lynn. Makes this Kentuckian tear up with joy.
Just got the news, this legend has passed away at age of 90. Rest in Paradise Loretta Lynn. So glad Daddy introduced us to your music. Thank you for the awesome down home memories.
First generation American here from a Christian Middle Eastern family. Only saying that to show that incredible music transcends. Anyway, beautiful song from a woman with class like no other. God bless!!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!!! I'm African American, born and raised in Los Angeles CA but I developed a love for Country Music as a child. I used to glue myself to the t.v. to watch Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton when they would have 2 hour music specials. #GoodMusic
Music transcends all line humans have drawn... I love truth and honesty, when a song tells me a story of these things I am blessed and honored to be available to hear it. Thank you Father above for this gift!! PS- Thank you for Loretta Lynn!!!!!!!!
Folks growing up in poverty can truly relate to this song, not having the luxuries or even essentials that others had but one thing for sure, we always had such a deep and profound love from our parents that money could never buy. No matter the success that we have become , I personally will never forget the sacrifices that my parents made just to keep food on the table. God bless the life of Ms. Lynn and everyone of you as well.
One of our great American voices joining the firmament of legends who will be forever esteemed for her raw talent and humanity. Thank you, Loretta. Rest in peace.
A wonderful voice and life story. True country music. This song in particular says so much about Loretta's character, remembering the rural poverty of her youth and her hardworking parents. Her struggles and success are an inspiration.
My heart breaks learning of Loretta Lynns passing! Rest In peace 🙏 Loretta! My mom and dad loved her music and I was raised on it! My mom passed in 1998 and Dad in 2003 May they all join in and sing together Lorettas much loved song Coal Miner's daughter together once again!
My dad was born and reared in Sledge Mississippi, he loved country music. Through him I too loved country music. We would watch The Oakridge Brothers, Charlie Pride, Tammy Wynette and Loretta Lynn on a regular. It was wonderful; such simple times and precious memories. Country music crosses all the color lines.
As a kid I would watch the Coal Miners Daughter movie and sing every song over and over! No black, no white....just amazing music!!! I will ALWAYS be a fan! 💗
This song is beautiful. I cry everytime I hear this song or even read the lyrics. I think it's a pretty universal thank you to parents that have loved and sacrificed so much for their children.
I took my grandma to one of her last concert. She had never been to any concert. She had a fantastic time and got a big hug from Loretta. I'm very happy I was able to get my grandma there in time
Renee Woolwine Yes ma'am you should too, my parents aren't coal miners but they are definetly hard working folks I'll tell you that. I'm proud of them.
Hello 👋 Christi. How are you doing ? Hope are you fine. Im Scott Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from. You seem like a real country girl
I lived right down the road on Mathis Holiow Road just around the bend from Hurricane Mills, and remember meeting Doo and the twins when the twins were about six or seven years old, when my friends and I went swimming in Hurricane Creek in front of their house. Loretta was on tour but Doo came down to the creek and hollered at us to just have fun and don't make a mess and to clean up after ourselves. Then he just waved and walked away. Of course I was much younger back then. I knew who Loretta Lynn was but again we were just kids. Our families always listened to WSM Grand Old Opry and Loretta became one of my most favorite country music singers. I was very sad to hear about her passing, My prayers go out to her family . R.I.P. Miss Loretta
You now play for Jesus and the angels, sweet Ms. Loretta. Your music will always hold a special place in this Kentucky girl’s heart. You were the true Queen of Country. Rest easy, ma’am! 💗🎼💗
She will be missed soo much. I was born and raised in Eastern Kentucky and my grandfather was a coal miner as well as many of my cousins and their fathers. These people lived hearty lives loving and caring for their families. Loretta was a wonderful woman and her talent knew no bounds. Rest in peace
I hope you & Ms. Patsy Cline are singing up a storm in heaven. God bless you and your family. I'm so grateful I got to meet you & hear you sing this song which is my favorite. Blessings 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🕊️❤️
Wow sounds impressive, are you a music lover too, left for me am her great fan's because I sincerely do loves her songs, because dey re so emotional when it's comes in music, hello how are you doing?
RIP Loretta! Ur talent will always be remembered. More importantly, how you lived is a testament to how in America we all have the opportunity to rise from humble beginnings to be a dynamic force contributing to our American ideals.
I love it. I grew myself in a holler in Tennessee not too far from Kentucky. With 6 wild brothers, 12 uncles, and 2 sisters. My dream was to meet Loretta lynn, but the closest I got is a place where my family plays (ciderville) the old cas walker show.
Hello 👋 Marcie. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Finally 5 million views for the best female artist EVER. A real legend. The entertainer of a lifetime. The truest singer you could ever hear. THE ICONIC LORETTA LYNN.
I remember the first time I heard a song by Ms. Lynn, it was when I watch Sissy Spacek portrayed the country legend.... Now, I am the kind of person who enjoys the group Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Pink Floyd, and the Canadian group RUSH, and so when I heard Ms. Lynn sing for the first time I was floored..... .We have lost one of the most amazing and graceful voices in music... Godless.... Sincerely, Clayton Crawford
Loretta Lynn is and always will be the Queen of country music, the real music that is sung with your heart and soul. She will never ever be second to anyone else. Love her and wish her the best in her life. Jackie SC
Im from Brazil, not so good with the english, but i can understand a lot of this song and i am really amazed, so beautiful, really beautiful, it telling a history about being the daughter of a coal miner, and about reading the bible, and the look of a good mother. Thank you very much for this pure experience, i am looking for this woman before listening to a song named kentucky girl, and now i am so much amazed for have the merit of knowing that. So nice, very nice, why nobody plays music like this in the radio, this woman having 4 milions of views. This is the kind of music you should not compare with any other .
My mother was a coal miner's daughter she was always singing this song lost my mother 2013 My condolences go out to Loretta Lynn family friends and fans RIP Loretta Lynn
