- I feel lucky to have lived in a time to enjoy the beautiful music of this super talented and special man. There is not a single John Prine song I dislike. And like a fine wine, he just got better with age. "I Remember Everything", a simple song with a powerful message, makes one feel that John knew something that we didn't. What a beautiful way to say goodbye. I sure don't remember everything, but I'll always remember John Prine. Enjoy and please feel free to share. (My apologies for typing Prime instead of Prine in the introduction to the video).
OMG so beautiful .miss you JOHN
Years ago someone posted on John's message borard the following:
"The last quarter of the 20th. century would not have been worth living without John Prine".
When I hear John or have a thought or discussion it’s all become so bittersweet now. There are very few musical story tellers who can require a box of Kleenex and make you fall off the couch laughing at once! It’s extremely difficult still but I have my Prine concert every morning because I need him to stay with us in the way he is able. JP will never be forgotten. He is too important being the national treasure he his. Love you and thank you John♥️
I love him and i love his stories and songs.
💙💙💙
Amen to this great human. Missed every day. He left us a treasure trove of his heart. What a gift he has given us. I’m smiling the whole time the tears fall thru every song. No one but John can do that Dead or alive.
He's all I listen to
Deb MeyLong: Great Comment!
thank you for the effort and the sharing. frankly, one of the more tragic events from COVID is the passing of John Prime. he mattered to me. still does. probably always will. stay well.
They just put covid on all death certificates, to raise the statistics.
Amen 🙏
The world is a lesser place without John.
John always wishing happiness Love his songs and his unique voice. .RIP 😇😴🙏
Peace and love, John. We sure miss you.
Awesome person, Rest In Peace John.
Looking at Fiona`s picture on screen...yes...she is a beautiful dark Irish rose...thankyou John for all your songs and your great but simple finger pickin melodies and your special poetry.....
Beautiful. Thank you
Life is a party. We all come in after it started, and we leave before it's over....but he left way too early.
RIP John Miss ya ✌️❤️
possibly one of the best songs ever written...so simple yet so beautiful...here today but gone tomorrow...a sin !!! so much more to offer and just maybe his songwriting was entering a new phase a new realm...i hope Fiona was able to feel her husband`s love for her.....one thing ..John was not a selfish man but very generous and easy goin and he did not deserve his ending fate....
The times John wasn't singing about love, he was on the far side of town having that ice cold beer
😅
LOVE his songs .....All of them, deep meaning to all of them, I think of your sadness and mine like yesterday, things that have happened to us in life .xx D.❤
Anytime I think I'm an idiot I think of those who didn't like this song.
It's impossible to pick my favorite John Prine song! I MIGHT could slick it down to my favorite 10 but even that's questionable
John has helped me in this life of ❤
…absolutely incredible. I’ve followed John since the late 70’s seeing him in the Virginia Beach area & strumming his songs since. I have a huge hole in my heart since he’s passed but will always treasure that man & his down to Earth songs…
Great segue to I Remember. First time I heard this song, I had been a JP fan for nearly a half century, and after his passing, realized just how prophetic it was, in so many ways. I've lived a charmed life as one of the lucky ones who saw him perform in the very early days. My first time about fifty years ago was through a happy mistake when I was in the Navy and scored a free ticket and a bus ride from the USO in Millington, TN thinking I was going to see Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid in downtown Memphis . Turns out that the lady handing out free tickets had run out and gave me a free admission to a different theater - can't for the life of me remember where it was. But I was also a young folkie at the time having played for nearly three years on the Jersey Shore and in Greenwich Village before the draft notice arrived and I joined up before the Army snatched me up... I was blown away - had never been to a small, one man show before. I got there well after it started - heard maybe five or six songs, was properly blown away by this guy, but didn't write his name down. And, I promptly forgot it.. the bus was leaving so I couldn't just run back and get it. It was a year before I happened upon his album in vinyl at Wallach's Music City in LA during a weekend visit from San Diego just weeks before I went to Vietnam. I played it thru at the listening station then took it home and played the grooves off of it trying to transcribe it to paper, then again to figure out the chords, and it was that way for the next two or three albums, until he started including lyrics.... How I met John Prine is a story I've never shared except with a couple of close friends, because it still makes me feel like a little like Forest Gump...
Those Forest Gump moments are the Best. I love John Prine. Nice story
Great story. Thanks for telling it.
It was fifty years ago I heard JP in the Village of Albion in Orleans County NY.
He was warm. gracious, funny, and generous with three encores. I will be a fan forever.
back again...what more can i say....Bobby Dylan and Neil Young and all other folkie stars should take a page out of John Prine`s Songwriting Book...everybody else seems so non-essential when compared to him....everybody else is farting around and only John knows how to do it right.. he did not deserve his fate....but then in life nothing is guaranteed....so i ask you...why do we all seek out fame and fortune ?? someone out there send me your thoughts....dark cloud poet singer songwriter...thankyou.....
I am a musician in my core, but I saw all that fame and fortune does for one is bring complications and a target on your back. Music and money don't mix well, I told myself.I decided to make my living doing other things and use the gifts I have as a secondary. I play for old folks, the appreciation is genuine.
What more can one say? I just feel fortunate to have lived at the same time and able to enjoy the music this great unselfish man created for us all. We’re very lucky.
He will live on forever with his songs, no one could write such beautiful songs that made you laugh and cry at the same time, rest in peace John.
🎶🎶🧜♀️🌹Beautiful song, John Prine wrote and sang for his Lady Love 🌹🧜♀️🎶🎶😍
Correct sir
Not a bad chanter
An iconic balladeer and musician. A bright star that faded way too fast.
I totally agree. Lasting music and people are not those of fame.
Missing John. Guess I always will.
Me, too.
no man can deny the Irish beauty of Fiona...Boomer...that is a great pic of an old acoustic guitar..maybe it`s an old martin ?? world class lyrics penned by a country folkie with 40-50yrs of writing and thinking songs...i think his writing was improving with age...i wonder what opportunities he missed...swimming pools of butterflies....the music biz is very political just like most/all business...but this is life people...someday soon we will all be gone too and all music from the past will never be heard again or just heard by chance...our lives have been enriched by John`s melodies and lyrics and his sense of humour....what more can i say...I just don`t know....thankyou for the youtube video and the notation etc....dark cloud poet singer songwriter.....canada
@9921moo There is wisdom in your thoughts. Like you and most people here,
even though I'm from the other side of the pond called the Atlantic,
I'm happy and glad to have met this talented musician via audio and video.
Miss you
Thank you for this beautiful tribute to a great songwriter. I don't think John Prine really knew how great he was. I rediscovered him sometime in the last 10 years but as I listen to his music over and over on You Tube and Pandora, I realize he has been in and out of my eclectic musical tendencies. I REMEMBER EVERYTHING is such a fitting finale for such a great artist. At his age (the same as mine which isn't really that old when you think of it) and with the health issues he had overcome, I'm sure he must have had some premonition whether conscious or not. There is an old saying that one never dies until the last time their name is spoken. If that is the case, John Prine will live on forever. His music is for all ages.
A fabulous tasteful and moving tribute to the great man.Thank you,i will remember everything.
no copyright on love that I know of.
I miss you John Prine.
I sure needed a good cry, thanks for the memories.
I remember you John every day I remember you
WOW What a great talent we lost lucky us we still have his music!
This song is about his wife Fiona right?
I still can't believe he's gone. I didn't even know who he was until 1996, in my 40s, introduced by someone I'm no longer with. He's the best thing she ever gave me.
What’s the name of the first song?
“All the Best”
We heard him many times. Every performance was a revelation. But thinking about John Prine's songs, I think the strength and beauty come from his fundamental kindness,
Thanks. A unique talent.
Wow ! just loved how you matched the song to the video ...Thank you so much for sharing this amazing video
john prines music is so dope. Glad i heard it
I can relate to this, thought I was in love many times, only to find the woman was just in it for herself 😊
I love this.
💙
This is NOT I Remember Everything, It's All the Best, from The Missing Years.
I refer you to the credits at the end of the video.
@@boomerhiker I didn't read the credits, my apology.
Beautiful song from a wonderful man. Thank you John.
It's OLD BUT TRUE 😢
So close to home
❤x
I love it! ❤ It's so sad! I didn't knew❣️ I remember this💖
American folk music...John is the best.
Woody Guthrie? a little too political. Bob Dylan? a little too cynical.
John Prine just drills into your heart and never leaves...and you don't want him to. Miss you, friend.
✨🎶🎶❣️🎶🎶✨
Thank you for uploading! If you have a second, I recorded some original music. As a fellow music lover, I'd love if you'd check it out. It's on my page. I appreciate it!
old fav!
