Songwriter Iris Dement wrote this about John Prine: “Because he cared enough to look - at me, you, all of us - until he saw what was noble, and then he wrapped us up in melodies and sung us back to ourselves.”
That sums it up for me.
❤❤❤❤
John and Iris were great together on 'In Spite Of Ourselves." Very humorous song.
He wrote it in his EARLY 20’s. John Prine was one of a kind, with the ability to say more in a single line than others could in an entire song. And his writing was always in a universally understandable and relatable manner. He is very sorely missed.
His duet with Iris Demit is beautifully funny - In Spite of Ourselves 🥰
This is a touching song. I am a much older man, but I am blessed to still have my wife of 50 years with me. I did hard physical work most of my life, and I have had many broken bones and serious injuries while working as an electrical lineman. I can now definitely relate to all the physical pain I feel each day, but I couldn't handle being lonely after all these years. You two have beautiful hearts and souls and are really in touch with the feelings and emotions of others.
Thank you. Much love from Romania 💚
I've been crying to this song for over 50 years.
John Prine was amazing ❤
That's Mister... Mr. John Prine.
Respect.
As you know by now John Prine was a master of lyricism. This song is powerful in its description of what it can be like to grow old and then see the pictures of your life slide by in your mind - so touching and personal. Another beautiful reaction. R.I.P. Mr. Prine - we miss you.
What a beautiful reaction. Last year, my wife was diagnosed with lung cancer and I was devastated at the thought of being on my own after 45 years. I was terribly depressed and felt the darkness and loneliness wrapping around me. I had never thought of our relationship ending in all the years we have been together and it never occurred to me that all married couples have to face the fact that nothing lasts forever. Watching your reaction to this song showed me how much you mean to each other and my heart was aching that one day you will also have to say goodbye to each other. By the way, after 11 months of chemotherapy and fighting the cancer, I'm pleased to say she won the battle and is now cancer free. Unfortunately, three weeks ago, I was diagnosed with cancer. I still don't know how bad mine is but I hope we don't have to go through the same battle all over again.
Thank you for your words...pleased to hear your wife is healthy now. Sending you both warm wishes, and praying for you to get good news as well 💚
Glad to hear that your wife is better. I lost mine last year to Dementia after 42years. Now she can be there for you to heal with. I know the thought of loneliness starts with the unknown future so stay strong with each other.
Every word counts with John. He can make you laugh or cry and sometimes in the same song.
John did add, in some performances, "Please don't just go and harass your elderly neighbors because they may not want it."
Don't do it for you, do it for them.
I believe John worked for the postal service when he was young and would have experiences with older folks that made him mature beyond his years.
You never have to apologize for getting emotional when listening to John Prine.
It happens to me all the time
Souvenirs is a great one to check out next. Grandpa was a carpenter, please don't bury me, up on bear Creek are more of my favorites from John 👍 I really enjoy watching your reactions,you two are so blessed to have each other. Thanks from the USA.
Definitely Souvenirs, and Dear Abby to lighten things up.
This is the best reaction to a video by anyone. So emotional and honest.
Two tender hearts I like to visit.
This made me cry...again. We run a free soup cafe, but the main thing we 'serve' is community, especially for the elderly who come and talk to each other and to all sorts of other folks who come through. Loneliness can be worse than hunger
That is beautiful! We would definitely stop for soup and to listen to some stories. All the best ☺️💚
Absolutely love John Prine. ❤He had so much empathy and that comes through in his songwriting. He also had a great sense of humour and that comes through as well.
Also...
You got Gold inside of you... 🎶
I love this song and Miss John Prine.
I so admire this talent. His final album "Tree of Forgiveness " is really good 👍 ❤
To go from crying to laughing with Prine, try 'In Spite of Ourselves'. You owe it to yourselves.
Been waiting for this one
John's songs make you think, make you feel. This song means more and more to me with each decade that passes. ☮💙🎶
Love some JOHN PRINE❤😎
gem
Your emotional pauses were so telling about the two of you.
We should all be grateful to get to listen to this man, a songwriter unlike anyone else.
I keep telling you, John Prine was among the greatest singer/songwriters lyricists ever. It's like he knew me better than anyone and could write a song that helped me heal or move on. The closest thing to godlike in his humble way.
His Christmas album is the sweetest you will ever hear.
Best choice of music ever!!! C'mon give us more of that good stuff!!!
Next song....IN SPITE OF OURSELVES..... those sad tears will turn to tears of joy and laughter. I really like your reactions
I am so glad that you have found and get John Prine, He has changed my life and has been an inspiration to me all these years. If you want to hear the fun side of him you should try "In Spite of Ourselves" or "Linda went to Mars" . Beautiful reaction....
My favorite.
Had the pleasure to see John twice
Beautiful song and beautiful soul
I love your reactions. John was a gift to all of us. I was lucky enough to see him about a dozen times over 45 years. His songs are as poignant as our truest feelings. A lighthearted, fun masterpiece of his is The Bottomless Lake. Also, I Remember Everything is a great bittersweet song that he recorded on video just before he died.Thanks for your open, honest reactions.
One of my Favorite song writers, a fantastic storyteller, i think you would like Jerry Jeff Walker also a great storyteller.
This dang song makes me cry every time.
Beautiful, sad song.
John Prine the master of simplicity, he will take you on journey's, make you cry, fill your tummy with laughter, make you think. He wrote so every which one of us understood. A major loss when John decided to go fishing in heaven. God bless you John for leaving us some of your gigantic talent. have a listen to Fish and whistle.
So happy you guys love John prine. Brilliant wordsmith
Lidia is a great song too. He will always be a gift to ages.
Grandpa was a carpenter is a great and funny song
The best of them can wring the heart, John wrings it out, comforts it and fills it with hope.
He was such a sensitive old soul.
Miss him so much...😢
The second song I ever heard from him (angel from Montgomery was the first) absolutely love this ❤❤
Another song from this, his first album, that stands out is Angel from Montgomery. There are many covers of John's recording, maybe the best is the version by Bonnie Raitt, but John's version -- in which he sings from the perspective of a depressed housewife -- is still incredible.
It is amazing is how this 20-something year old put together such a wonderful collection of songs that seem to have emerged from the souls of people who don't look at all like John Prine. An elderly couple, a heroin addicted veteran, a middle-aged woman tired of her life, a young shut-in girl longing to live a real life.
Prine magic
Thanks to Ziggy. What great people you two are!
We lost a good friend when John passed. Miss that man
I love this song but it always makes me choke up.
You guys would really like Spanish Pipe Dream. It’s a lot more upbeat and quite funny.
Or for another tear jerker there’s Sam Stone.
Love and miss John Prine.
Life is short. Everyone who is young will be old, and they will be old before they know it. It's typical human behavior to shoot ourselves in the foot. Every single thing done in society to minimize the value of the old is minimizing ourselves.
I knew this one would get you. I was crying watching you cry.
Yes. ❤
LAZY SUMMER DAYS IN THE COUNTRYSIDE, WE WOULD SIT AROUND N HAVE JOHN PRINE SING ALONGS.
DOMINIQUE, WHEN YOU GO TO SEE UR GRANDMAMA, YOU CAN TELL HER ABOUT ALL THE GREAT MUSIC YOU HAVE DISCOVERED. WAS EMOTIONAL RIGHT ALONG WITH YOU JUST NOW. 👏🖖
John Prine is Americana, much like Woody Guthrie. I've had the pleasure of seeing him perform several times. I grew up in Chicago and knew of him early on in his career. One interesting note to share: Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) was asked which musicians he likes to listen to and he answered that he doesn't often listen to other musicians, except John Prine.
Love you two! And he wrote that quickly in the way to an open mic night. Glad you may be doing more Prine. M6 favorite story teller of all time. Once heard him described as having the ability to "Express complex human emotions, simply." And ability to provide such details to the story make the picture he is painting so universally real. Tru Souvenirs, and Sam Stone from this same show. He does light hearted as well, after he makes you cry. Do Summers End followed by When I Get to Heaven.
Me and the wife got to see John in concert, probably around "84.
Shoutout to the great Dave Jacques on bass.
Some of the greatest lyrics ever. After John Prine’s death Brandie Carlisle did a cover of this as a tribute. It will absolutely rip your heart out ❤
If you like story telling songs, I think you will appreciate Randall Knife by Guy Clark. You both are lovely to watch! Thank you😊
I just moved to the Ozarks, an area I know John liked to go fishing. I'm going to find myself a big old oak tree next to the Buffalo River and play this song on my guitar (and try and sing it).
Thank you for allowing me to share in your tears with you. ❤🫂
💚
You guys are very bright lights in this dark world. Stay that way. Blessings
Thank you and much love 💚
Joan Baez did a wonderful cover of this song!
Check out Brandi Carlisle signing this in the Colbert Show the day after John passed away. Stunning.
Thanks for the great reaction. John was so amazing. I really think you guys might like No Hard Feelings by the Avett Brothers. They are big fans of John and really great song writers like John was.
No Hard Feelings. OMG. I want that song played at my funeral.
Thank you for reacting to "Hello in There". I should have said in my message to immediately go and listen to Prine's "In Spite of Ourselves" with Iris Dement, a song that will make you laugh. 'Hello" is such a poignant song and I still get teary eyed when I listen to it. Dominika, your comment about us cherishing and staying with our elders is beautiful. Our elders have much to teach us. I think that's what Prine was trying to tell us. Prine's genius lay in the fact that he could bring us to tears and then make us laugh. "In Spite of Ourselves" is one of his songs that will bring a smile and laughter.
Thank you so much...as you probably noticed, the song touched us deeply. He was such a beautiful soul 💚
@@MerchantOfAlba Your reaction reflects your beautiful souls. ❤
Now that I’m 65, I see it’s true…old trees just grow stronger, we have no other choice!!
One of the first tragic deaths of Covid; the world lost a true treasure when he was struck down.
John Prine is a treasure. Please you absolutely have the review John with Iris Dement "In Spite of Ourselves".
Listen to Sour Grapes, he wrote it when was 12 or 13 years old
I think he was an old soul from the beginning
I’m pretty sure the inspiration for this song came about as he had a job(not sure what), but he would have to visit an old folks home. That’s what I read.
Make a recording next time you visit and listen to stories ❤️
Listen to Prines late good friend Steve Goodman do his version of The Dutchman for a similar message beautifully done.
Yes. I started working in Adult Protective Services a few years ago. Even when they’re able to take care of themselves on their own, they’re often still lonely and need someone to just listen and talk with.
I love this song. If you want something funny then check out "Let's Talk Dirty in Hawaiian"
A Song Smith would be a good title for John...................Legend would be another :)
When I was a kid , I used to hang around with the old folks at family gatherings and listen to their stories . I learned so much from them .I will be 79 next week , our kids are scattered all over the country with no grandchildren . I have lots of stories about what I consider to be an interesting life , but no one wants to hear them. The greatest problem of modern society is that unlike human life for tens of thousands of years , when wisdom was passed down to the young from older generations , the pace of change is so rapid now that the experience and knowledge of past generations is considered to be irrelevant. All culture now is passed on by sexual perverts in Hollyweird or the internet .
May I suggest that you write down the stories from your life. Take them one at a time. Treat each one as a chapter in the book of your life. Your experience has value. It is said that we will never be a prophet in our hometown, but the day will come when there are questions that will want to be asked and we won't be there to answer them. Tell your stories.
I am 66 but very similar experience as you. Even as a young kid I always loved listening to my elders be it parents, aunts, uncles or grandparents or even older work colleagues. I would try and ask a few questions to get them started then sit back and soak it all in. And like you I believe I have had some interesting experiences to share but find children and grandchildren not much interested.
@@757optiminteresting reading your response/suggestion as that is something I have been considering doing. I have stories and experiences but those who should be my audience don’t show much interest. I will write them down for my own benefit and hope one day they come across them and find them worth their time to read.
Thank you for your wise words. If we were living closer, I'd be happy to listen to your stories. Much love from Romania 💚☺️
@@bradsense7431 Excellent. They can't read them if you don't write them. May you enjoy the effort and may the fruits of your labor bring you closer to your loved ones. Amen.
Please listen to his album Bruised Orange and his album Sweet Revenge
Listen to them all!
i like you . I dont know why. ❤️
As a mailman he would see police doing welfare checks and they would knock on the doors and yell "hello in there. Hello." In some cases the person had passed.
John Prine is one of the greatest songwriters of all time. This entire concert 'Sessions on West 54th St' is on CZcams.....check it out.
I like Bette Midler's cover much better.
You have a wonderful channel. But you seem to be reacting to more and more obscure/niche artists. Sometimes these get
Thank you...we do love discovering all those wonderful artists we've never heard of before. It's true, some of them don't give views, but make our life richer 😊💚
@@MerchantOfAlba Tak. Muzyka wzbogaca nasze życie. Zgadzam się całkowicie. Nie sądzę jednak, by "media społecznościowe" robiły to ogólnie./Da. Muzica ne îmbogățește viața. Sunt total de acord. Dar nu cred că "social media" face acest lucru în general. My best regards to you both!😁
Way too much talking
