I know you'll probably never see this, but I wrote you a letter when I was around 11 or 12 and got your CD. I listened to it until the disc was so worn. I wrote you a letter and painted a watercolor 🌹. In my youth group during 9/11 we constantly went back to sing Hands. Fast forward to today I am 35 and still struggling to find myself. This song was so pivotal these last few months acknowledging the hurt and dysfunction in my family and how I resonate with these words after the birth of my 3rd son. Singing your songs helps me mend and heal these literal and figiurtive wounds. Thank you for sharing your gifts and talents with the world.
I need to tell you I'm from a verbally and physically abusive home to the extreme and my dad was a severe alcoholic. I'm 72 now. I was stripped of my self esteem and so we're my siblings. Somehow we have all found our path in life for the good. I lost a brother and sister from suicide. One sister died from cancer at 40 and she wanted to live. I was a mess after I got married, 19. I didn't even know it until my father in law went into treatment. I decided to go to family days. The first day I knew I needed help. The counselors picked me out with no hesitation. I've been talking ever since. I divorced after 20 years of hell. I gave it 3 years of counseling. I was changing but my spouse was hanging on tight to his controlling behavior, verbal and physical abuse. I owned and operated my own business for 25 years after that. I went to beauty college. I loved every minute of it. I have 3 wonderful children that are thriving in their lives that are helping other people in society and are successful. I was a "caretaker" all my life. I have fibromyalgia, chronic pain and arthritis now. I had to retire early and have been on disability ever since I just couldn't keep working anymore. I worked another 5 years after my Drs told me I needed to stop working. I just wouldn't give up that easily. I live alone now. All my life I've wanted to have someone stable in my life that would give a relationship 100% - 100%. It didn't ever happen. I have so many health issues now I wouldn't put myself out there anymore. I lived under so much stress until I started my journey to find myself. And to love myself. It's not selfish at all to love yourself at all. I had to find it within myself. Am I lonely? Yeah! But I am lonelier in a relationship where I am doing the majority of the emotional work. I am just touching the surface of my life here. You are young yet, don't settle for less than who you are. If that 'someone'is not familiar with the emotional work, for God's sake, RUN!!! You can't change a tigers stripes!!! And you are definitely not alone!!! Remember that. God bless ❣️ Life is never going to be perfect, but keep looking forward. If we didn't make mistakes we wouldn't learn from them. And learning from other people's mistakes is also a learning tool 🙂
"I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations..." I've had a crush on Jewel for nearly thirty years now, but that line cuts deep. My grandfather fought in Bastogne in Belgium. His father before him cleared the land that now provides income to me and my sons. "Such sacrifice..." No longer do I see her as a pretty girl with a lovely voice, but an artist that really gets it. She's an artist with an understanding that few possess. Stop making me cry.
Totally I’ve been in a jewel run lately crying my eyes out. That’s all she ever wanted in the industry is to be a true artist and she is. The few of many!!
Jewel and Dolly singing together from the heart of their shared heritage and experience is just beautiful, this is what music and song was meant to do.
My father passed in 2019 and my grandfather passed three years later in 2022, and my God I miss them terribly. They helped me become the woman I am today and I'm forever grateful.
Your music has calmed me in some of my hardest times. As a disabled firefighter with PTSD. I still find it to be one thing that can calm the mind and settle the soul. Thank you
No I haven't ," but I would love too , I've got one CD of your's , I've been to a few 3 day music festivals , I'm 61 , to me I look at day by day " not the number
"I am the product of such sacrifice. I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations and their stories live in me like holy water." My genealogist soul loves these lines so deeply. ❤
So sorry for your loss, not just saying it! Lost my Father when I was 6, he died in a horrible car crash, he was 27 years old!! I reminisce about how much I loved him and his love for me and my brother!! Jewels song comes from a place of going through the heartache!! And her voice is like an angel, delicate and pure!! So precious!
This speaks to me !! Been thinking of my Dad a lot lately Even tho he passed almost 10 yrs ago I Am My Father’s Daughter and becoming my Mother’s friend finally
'I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations' and 'I am the product of their sacrifice' - those lines are so beautiful and says so much. They describe everyone who ever left their own country in the hopes of giving their children a better life.
This is Teresa I'm Cybeles wife. I have wonderful memories of Jewel before she ever signed to any record label she use to open for a lot of Christian bands in Southern California. I knew someday she'd be famous she has such an amazing voice
The day my daughter was born was the first time I heard Jewel and Dolly singing the greatest song I have ever heard. That moment became etched in my heart forever. It was as if the universe knew the significance of that day and gave me a soundtrack that perfectly captured the overwhelming love and joy I felt. Jewel's music has been the constant thread through my life's journey, and that song, on that day, was like a gift-a perfect harmony of two incredible voices marking one of the most beautiful moments of my life.
Your music has been with me through the past 25 years, a source of comfort, inspiration, and connection to my own journey. Now at 49 an single, as I reflect on my life, I find myself returning to your songs for strength and solace. If I had one bucket list wish, it would be to hug you for just 30 seconds, to thank you for being such an important part of my life. You’ll never know how deeply your music has touched my heart.
Im 33 and have listened to Jewel since I was a teenager. Losing my Daddy changed my life. But, this song reminded me, I am my fathers daughter. I have his eyes. And I will miss my hero until the day I die.
Just found this beautiful song by jewel. Need to have my daughter listen to this. She just lost her father two months ago. To cancer. Beautiful song. Made me cry.
I just lost my father recently. He was a good, hard-working and kind man. He used to play his guitar to me before going to bed and sing. He was a minister in his last days and sang his guitar, sang and preached the gospel to the end. I have big shoes to fill.
My dad just passed away on the 10th of March 2022. And I miss him tremendously. I have no words. My mind won't turn off and I feel numb. I love him so, so, so much. I am my father's daughter. And I couldn't be more prouder of that. Thank you dad for everything. And you handled your situation with such grace. I was watching and you taught me so much these last nine months living with you. And I thank you for allowing me to help you those 37 days in the hospital. I thought I'd be bringing you back to your house, but it was time for you to go home. I'm completely lost right now. But, I know what you would want me and my children to do. And I will continue living the best life that I can for you. You'll be forever missed.
+Paula Vargas All the jewel songs from this album should have more views. And otherwise, there are tons of songs on youtube that should have millions of views, but dont. Because people forgot them, like their history. Ironic, as this is what this song talks about :P
Sadly anything acknowledging men these days, particularly older men is not popular. Heartwarming to realize that all society doesn't believe we are all rotten to the core.
So very very true. Sadly, men are minimized as a parent. I know fathers that are far more nurturing than many mothers. Don't get me wrong, mothers are equally as important. "Equally", being the key word. #parents.
My dad just sent this to me to listen to, I am indeed my father's daughter. Brought tears to my eyes. I love the line: I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations and their stories live in me like Holy Water. Wow, just beautiful.
I just watched Eddie Vedder's daughter sing a song with same name but different melody and lyrics. Both are equally beautiful songs and both are sung by outstandingly beautiful women. Dolly Parton is a national treasure.
This is absolutely beautiful! Tears rolled hearing this, reminded me of my dad who passed away almost a year ago..."I am my father's daughter and I have his eyes".
The father daughter relationship should be one of the strongest in life. So glad to have a daughter by myself! You fathers out there, love your daughters no matter what approaches you in life. They need our unconditional love ❤️
Ended up here after watching Joe Rogans 3 plus hour interview with Jewel. If you have the time, I'd recommend to watch the episode. Jewels story is powerful and perspective changing!
We just lost my father in law a few weeks ago. This song was brutal before his passing. Its just too much right now. But such a beautiful tribute. Rest easy Bob.... I'll move heaven and earth to keep your daughter safe. Thank you for raising her right.
I'm speechless and choked up. Being half Swiss Dutch and country born and bred, that song and video touched my very soul. Thank you so much Jewell and Dolly, your brilliance just gets stronger with time. Two truly beautiful stars worthy of the name. God bless. Emily Liberty
I know you'll never actually see this comment, Jewel, but thank you for this song. My four-year-old daughter absolutely loves it, and asks me to play it for her all the time. It makes me cry just a little, every time. I hope she looks back some day and cherishes all of the times we have had together, like you do with your father. We love you and your family. Hope you are all well.
Its a beautiful song and today am glad i found it, yes iam ma fathers doughter and am living his dreams i will keep our candle still lighting love u dady
This is a piece of art! And the lyrics to this song are just so powerful, so deep, so meaningful. You actually literally feel the love in each word. God bless you, Jewel. May love always surround you and your family
75 years ago on the side of that mountain an angel came gently down and placed a gift inside dolly to share with the world thank you for meeting Dolly and sharing your gift with us xxx
Me and my dad danced to this at my wedding 2 years ago, and still it always brings us to tears. It will always have a special meaning to my family and help us get through so many hard times ( nearly losing my 4 year old son, husbands deployments and so many more) x
Just beautiful… I enjoyed meeting you some years ago when you played at the Sydney Opera House in Australia… you are truly a gift from God, Jewel. God bless you.
I will have my first child in a month; Her name is Ava. I hope to raise her with such love and respect that she too will have a meaningful and happy life. It would be my greatest pleasure.
Jewel looks just like her grandmother, and it is true that she is a product of her grandmother's sacrifice. This song is a beautiful tribute to her family!💞
Jewel's mother in the video looks like my grandmother who was of German descent from NC. I am Jewel's age and people used always tell me I looked just like Jewel. Now I am older and what a compliment that really was.
Mar Thivierge, mine too. Throughout his entire life my Dad was a man of sacrifice & patience, dropping everything and coming if ever one of us had need. He is the greatest man I ever knew (aside from Jesus Christ of coarse😊).
My daddy passed on 12/04/15 I miss him, the dementia is the worst. I'm my father's daughter and have his eyes. He was 87 and born 1929 year the Great Depression started. He worked hard all his life to give me the things he never had. But the biggest thing was his love, patience and understanding 💓 I miss you so much Daddy 💔
My Dad died at 64, when I was 32 years old. My Mom 5 years earlier. Many times I miss them so much and sad they didn't have the chance to get to know my children. Deep down, though, sometimes, I'm grateful they didn't get too old and got dementia. I understand how painful that can be. Even more so than having dead parents.
Hi daddy..this reminds me of all of the wonderful times that we had together. RIP daddy .1979. Writing in 2022.💝💝💝 I miss you so very much. Still have tears running down my face
I have heard this song and many others of Jewels over many wonderful years. An incredible talent and gift to the world. I really do love how Dolly sings Jewels song with her. ❤️
when asked who my father was I just answered MY FATHER'S IN HEAVEN .. any would assume he had passed away and left me here yet little did they know I WAS TALKING ABOUT GOD THE ENTIRE TIME ...
I love this song so much. Jewel, I know your father is incredibly proud of you. When I watch Alaska: The Last Frontier, he just lights up like a firefly when you are around. You and Dolly are both such beautiful and inspirational women. God bless.
Late on a saturday night and I'm drunkenly watching Jewel videos. 20 years later ... nothing ever changes :) Actually I was just thinking the other day about how much grief and effort our ancestors put into us, and how we (as a people) willingly throw it away......
My dad was a MST SGT when he died and I was a toddler left w evil ppls I saw wht hell is..and GOD showed me love. I was made to be a victim and GOD taught me how to be a warrior. My dad was amazing and he did not fight for this country to LET the evils of this world take it from us..
Your voice is one of a kind, and I think she is very under rated as beautiful as she is I can’t believe she’s not still in the forefront between those two things alone not to mention, she seems like a very nice girl, and clearly from a good background. She is incredible.
Am dad have six little girls that listen to Jewel and send me the song on Father's Day so thank you for the memories and the song too I grow up with six sisters and now listening to my daughter sing along to you make grown man tear up think you
I watch Alaska The Last Frontier and LOVE the theme song. I had to find you, knowing your dad as well as I do through the program this song made me cry. You're incredible.
My grandmother died today and I keep listening to this crying both sad tears and happy for the memories. I am my father's daughter I have my grand mother's eyes I am the product of her sacrifice
@@sharonvance4460 Thank you, that means so much. My grandfather died 3 days after her. Its been very rough but now they rest externally together. I appreicate your prayers 🙏
Jewels voice is so beautiful and emotional to me. I'm 6'4 290lbs. And yes, I find her music soul touching. I wish I could see you live. So powerful. Just beautiful music.
I am My Father's Daughter, love it!!!! I am a Father's Daughter too! Miss My Daddy so. And Grandma. This So Special! Thanks for sharing. Beautiful duet.
this so touches my heart, my Daddy sang the old songs to me, and played his harmonicas. He learned from his elders and I do have his eyes! I miss you Daddy
Beautiful! Fathers can really shape a childs dignity and can destroy it in a flash. And for the children, sons and daughters that have no father, sad. Are these real videos of Jewel as a child with her father and family?
I bawl my eyes out every time I watch this video. My Dad was a musician and I remember the days spent in local joints in AZ. Precious memories to me now. My husband was born and raised here in Homer (well Seward because at the time there was no hospital here) and I’ve loved sharing this video with him and him telling me the names of your aunts. Such great history.
@ozzy ozzy great song please check out Jewel - Pieces Of You ,Spirit, This Way , 0304 and Goodbye Alice in Wonderland Album review including Perfectly Clear , Sweet and Wild and last album is Picking Up The Pieces on my channel
There are certain Artists, I swear are Angels, these are 2 of them. Would Love to see it performed with both of you and Allison Krauss. Now that would be truly Heavenly.
You can tell Jewel wrote and sang this from the heart. What a beautiful tribute to her family. She looks JUST LIKE her grandmother, who by the way, she inherited her voice from. Grandmother was an aspiring opera singer who gave up her chance when she move to Alaska. I assume Jewel SOUNDS like her grandmother, as well. Anyway, love her and love this song.
jealousy love holding hands... native constellation in sky, just looking and heaven's hymn... flows at once through my vain veins... questions asked on knees... can my brother see these flowers in my hand...?

Just beautiful… I enjoyed meeting you some years ago when you played at the Sydney Opera House in Australia… you are truly a gift from God, Jewel. God bless you.
that is one of the prettiest things I have ever heard , nice job little lady !
This is such a beautiful song! Reminds me of my Dad! He died the week before his 96th birthday!🌹❤️
I will have my first child in a month; Her name is Ava. I hope to raise her with such love and respect that she too will have a meaningful and happy life. It would be my greatest pleasure.
Jewel you're talent is immeasurable
The best songs are the ones that tell a story , with simple words & deep meaning . This is one of those few .
I was around when Dolly started her Career and she is a MEDIOCRE singer at best!! Jewel shouldve done it ALL by herself,,she NAILED IT!!
Jewel looks just like her grandmother, and it is true that she is a product of her grandmother's sacrifice. This song is a beautiful tribute to her family!💞
Im a hard-core metal head from the 80's...but I love this song. Very Deep and personal, good work ladies!!
That clip in the beginning is a great indicator of the German heritage of many southerners.
The good looks, and barbecue are other indicators.
Jewel's mother in the video looks like my grandmother who was of German descent from NC. I am Jewel's age and people used always tell me I looked just like Jewel. Now I am older and what a compliment that really was.
I'm not crying. You're crying. (This is absolutely lovely. Jewel and Dolly are treasures.)
This song just brought me to tears. So beautiful. Yep...I'm my father's daughter.💗
My father is in his 80s, and is losing his history and and himself due to worsening dementia. This song makes me think of him.
Mar Thivierge, mine too. Throughout his entire life my Dad was a man of sacrifice & patience, dropping everything and coming if ever one of us had need. He is the greatest man I ever knew (aside from Jesus Christ of coarse😊).
My daddy passed on 12/04/15 I miss him, the dementia is the worst. I'm my father's daughter and have his eyes. He was 87 and born 1929 year the Great Depression started. He worked hard all his life to give me the things he never had. But the biggest thing was his love, patience and understanding 💓
I miss you so much Daddy 💔
Mar Thivierge blessing to you
My Dad died at 64, when I was 32 years old. My Mom 5 years earlier. Many times I miss them so much and sad they didn't have the chance to get to know my children. Deep down, though, sometimes, I'm grateful they didn't get too old and got dementia. I understand how painful that can be. Even more so than having dead parents.
My mom is 87 and cant remember what happened to her brother and her husband, sometimes calls me my brothers name,, it is heartbreaking sometimes..
Hi daddy..this reminds me of all of the wonderful times that we had together. RIP daddy .1979. Writing in 2022.💝💝💝 I miss you so very much. Still have tears running down my face
Hey how are you doing….?
I have heard this song and many others of Jewels over many wonderful years. An incredible talent and gift to the world. I really do love how Dolly sings Jewels song with her. ❤️
Four years later, and I didn't know I needed this. This transcends generations and genre. This is a part of the human story.
when asked who my father was I just answered MY FATHER'S IN HEAVEN .. any would assume he had passed away and left me here yet little did they know I WAS TALKING ABOUT GOD THE ENTIRE TIME ...
jewel and dolly. what a combination of perfection.
I love this song so much. Jewel, I know your father is incredibly proud of you. When I watch Alaska: The Last Frontier, he just lights up like a firefly when you are around. You and Dolly are both such beautiful and inspirational women. God bless.
Hey how are you doing…?
Man, Jewel seems like an awsome person. Every song is from the heart and not fluff. I love Jewel.
Late on a saturday night and I'm drunkenly watching Jewel videos. 20 years later ... nothing ever changes :)
Actually I was just thinking the other day about how much grief and effort our ancestors put into us, and how we (as a people) willingly throw it away......
My dad was a MST SGT when he died and I was a toddler left w evil ppls I saw wht hell is..and GOD showed me love. I was made to be a victim and GOD taught me how to be a warrior. My dad was amazing and he did not fight for this country to LET the evils of this world take it from us..
My dad showed me this song when I was 7 and I've loved it for 5 years now.
I listened to this first time in the car and started crying. It really brings the true message of hearth and home and family.
Your voice is one of a kind, and I think she is very under rated as beautiful as she is I can’t believe she’s not still in the forefront between those two things alone not to mention, she seems like a very nice girl, and clearly from a good background. She is incredible.
Am dad have six little girls that listen to Jewel and send me the song on Father's Day so thank you for the memories and the song too I grow up with six sisters and now listening to my daughter sing along to you make grown man tear up think you
The sheer power of a story set to music! The ability to move one's soul. Amazing.
Jewel has a vocal sound that is so special and you can listen for hours, loved her forever.
A lovely song and a fitting tribute to the journey Jewel has taken. She is the spitting image of her paternal grandmother.
I watch Alaska The Last Frontier and LOVE the theme song. I had to find you, knowing your dad as well as I do through the program this song made me cry. You're incredible.
This song captures the soul of America.
My grandmother died today and I keep listening to this crying both sad tears and happy for the memories.
I am my father's daughter
I have my grand mother's eyes
I am the product of her sacrifice
I'm sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my prayers.
@@sharonvance4460 Thank you, that means so much. My grandfather died 3 days after her. Its been very rough but now they rest externally together. I appreicate your prayers 🙏
Jewels voice is so beautiful and emotional to me. I'm 6'4 290lbs. And yes, I find her music soul touching. I wish I could see you live. So powerful. Just beautiful music.
I've never heard this song before, and I like how the two voices blend together. Jewel and Dolly are very good songwriters.
Hey how are you doing today…?
Still listening in 2020. Who else is here?
Yep, got Pieces of You in 1995 and I haven't stopped listening.
Me I love it.
Me. And I am 13.
Definitely here still
I love this song
I am My Father's Daughter, love it!!!! I am a Father's Daughter too! Miss My Daddy so. And Grandma. This So Special! Thanks for sharing. Beautiful duet.
Good heavens. What a sweet intro with your Daddy! That's adorable!
this so touches my heart, my Daddy sang the old songs to me, and played his harmonicas. He learned from his elders and I do have his eyes! I miss you Daddy
I am my fathers daughter, I have his eyes. I’ll never forget our times together
This is a Beautiful song reminds me of My Daddy & me. I love & miss him so much. Thank you for sharing & God Bless you for your songs!
Beautiful! Fathers can really shape a childs dignity and can destroy it in a flash. And for the children, sons and daughters that have no father, sad.
Are these real videos of Jewel as a child with her father and family?
I bawl my eyes out every time I watch this video. My Dad was a musician and I remember the days spent in local joints in AZ. Precious memories to me now. My husband was born and raised here in Homer (well Seward because at the time there was no hospital here) and I’ve loved sharing this video with him and him telling me the names of your aunts. Such great history.
Hey how are you doing…?
We need more women in this world like Jewel and Dolly. 👌🏻And more men like their fathers 🤗
@ozzy ozzy great song please check out Jewel - Pieces Of You ,Spirit, This Way , 0304 and Goodbye Alice in Wonderland Album review including Perfectly Clear , Sweet and Wild and last album is Picking Up The Pieces
on my channel
Always loved them both. Massive talent and both have a great sense of humour. I can tell.
Hear, Hear!!
Love them both
@@squirrelhillfarm9070 great song please check out Jewel - Picking Up the Pieces album Review on my channel
This song is so beautiful! I sent it to my Dad. It always brings tears to my eyes.
There are certain Artists, I swear are Angels, these are 2 of them. Would Love to see it performed with both of you and Allison Krauss. Now that would be truly Heavenly.
You can tell Jewel wrote and sang this from the heart. What a beautiful tribute to her family. She looks JUST LIKE her grandmother, who by the way, she inherited her voice from. Grandmother was an aspiring opera singer who gave up her chance when she move to Alaska. I assume Jewel SOUNDS like her grandmother, as well. Anyway, love her and love this song.
Hello Bonnie, how are you doing today?
😊😁I'm very pleased to know I'm not the only one that loves the song but when last did you play it.
Dolly’s voice breaks my heart. So beautiful.
jealousy love holding hands... native constellation in sky, just looking and heaven's hymn... flows at once through my vain veins... questions asked on knees... can my brother see these flowers in my hand...?
2022 here and both of these beautiful ladies voices just get richer over time. Alway been a fan of both.❤️
