This past Saturday my daughter drove us to the wake of a cousin. He was only 65 but had a long illness and suffered a lot. I am not well and could barely walk, stand or kneel at his casket but I had to be there to say goodbye. Today my daughter was driving me home from cardiac rehab. This song, one of my Prine favorites, came on the radio. I had to look away thinking about my cousin and John so she wouldn't see the tears but she knew they were there. She turned the volume up a bit so I could hear the song above the outside noise. We had a long "moment" in silence as we drove home. No words were said nor needed. That's how John Prine touches people's souls.

Sorry about your cousin and good karma to you. I'm 66m and really just started listening to him after he died. I knew Paradise from college but that was about it. I just retired and am finishing a cabin on the lake. However, I will be having both hips replaced this year. It makes you feel old, but I I have a lot of time to catch up on his music and every single song hits home. The man is truly a savior.

I had never heard of Kurt Vile until I stumbled on this duet. He's has an interesting style. Great guitar player.

John was TRULY a national treasure. He is so so missed by myself and so many others. :(

I bought a record in High School, John Prine sitting on a stack of hay. Loved his music ever since. How Lucky am I.

Watching “Dog” on the plane, I said to myself “I think I hear John Prine”. Beautiful

Just saw "Dog" tonight! Soundtrack was great, especially this one❣

This song makes me tear up because the words are so ironic to the fact that he passed away from Coronavirus in the spring of 2020.

What brilliance. How lucky can one man get to have lived in the time of John Prine?

God bless John, and bless Kurt

How can anyone not love this? Pure joy.

Thank you, Kurt, for your incredible talent and tribute to John Prine!

What a beautiful melody. We’re lucky to have gotten this brilliant duet

So good having an illegal smile thank John you been with me for 25 years and to steal a line "I got no hate. I got no pride i got so much love that i cannot hide". To my fellow songwriters keep writing even if no one hears the songs.

I write songs because I have a passion for music and let me say this some of the best songs I ever heard are from artists who no ever heard of like Sneaky Pete of East Texas. Best slide and finger style guitarist i ever heard or met.

Miss you John, RIP. Watching this Jan 1st 2021. Hope his kind, calm, wise words lead us to peace This Year.

Covid-19 takes the good ones. Kurt makes them live for ever,

There's a candle that burns right through the darkness it shines so bright to light my way back home it caught my eye and filled my soul with music it was John Prine and a heart felt melody... I love you John Prine!

What a fantastic combo.

What a beautiful man. RIP John.

John Prine understood pure human nature that we all have our little short comings and should enjoy or at least appreciate it.

Met both these wonderful gentlemen and both gracious to speak with.

I was always a John Prine fan then i saw Kurt Vile at the Beale St festival 2weeks ago..then i found this!!

Stumbled upon this from "This is Us" netflix series

I love music these days

A rising star and a prodigy ❤️

My favorite version. God is now learning how to write a song. RIP John.

Such a simple song but so catchy and memorable. Luv it.

Love this song. Its grows on you.

Just my two favorites together

these two really are in sync w each other... beautiful

Not even a small detune can spoil this beautiful union.

moving song. R.I.P. JOHN. From Italy

This song is beautiful. I love this collaboration. What talent.

Une merveilleuse mélodie, des voix singulières....bravo...bravo

Superb, so sweet, looking forward for Kurt's concert in Detroit.

I was there. My family and I drove down from Michigan for the show. One of the best things we've ever done. God bless you, John, we sure will miss you!

Coolest boomer and millennial duet ever. Great stuff.

John never really seemed to care who was singing with him, as long as they were singing with him. He just wanted to play his music and if someone was playing with him, that was a bonus.

Good song to leave us with. Miss you my friend

heard this song on my spotify and i knew it was gold.... listened to it over and over.... love these guys..

love love love

this song touches my heart oxox

En France des personne apprécie cette balade musicale

Love his muzak!!! Hehe lol

Today I walked down the street I use to wander Yeah, shook my head and made myself a bet There was all these things that I don't think I remember Hey, how lucky can one man get.

JP once said that something as simple as his fan belt breaking at a hotdog stand could be the difference between a great novel and an insignificant song. That's the thing about John Prine. He makes a simple statements that provoke very deep thoughts. With most highly-educated scholars, it's just the opposite.

I must have something in my eye.

Nice music performance 👍

Prachtig nummer! Ook te horen in de film Dog (2022)

How lucky Kurt Vile John Prine

Corona virus took John Prine and left the former Scrotus. If there is a God, what the pluck was he thinking ?

JP mistakes on the guitar were even beautiful.

Covid took John Prine about the same time it left us Donald Trump. Proof that if there is a God he's got a very dark sense of humour.
