My dad introduced her music to me when I was a girl. Now I sing her songs to my daughter. She lives on.
She's phenomenal
How could you not love Nanci she's amazing. Miss her.
This is one of my favourite's of Nanci's although I love all her music.
It is just such a powerful song and I too am a "child in the 60's."
It truely is "A Hard Life Where Ever You Go." I totally agree with that.
Nancy, fly free baby! Soar on those black birds wing. I saw you in Houston at Anderson Fair ,the Paramount in Austin and open Mike night at the Strawberry Patch in Houston. God bless you your loved one your family and thank you for bringing such beauty into my life.I grew up with your songs and your sage wisdom. I miss you dearly. R.I.P. beautiful spirit.
Just watching the 2022 Grammy Awards and as they scroll through the artist's we have lost in the music industry they show a picture of Nanci Griffith 😔
I had no idea she passed away.......
This was one of the very first songs I ever listened to of her and I loved her since.
Rest in peace you beautiful soul and thank you for all of your beautiful melodies.... 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎸🎙️
Such a beautiful and sad song. One song we should all be listening to today especially in our hard times between neighbors, family members, people driving in cars, and lastly politicians. Too much hate and division today everywhere. Please request this song on your local radio station today. I heard it again recently on a Sunday Irish music format show on Sunday (NPR) while driving home and it was very emotional for me. A beautiful song from a beautiful person, Nanci Griffith- may her music and contributions never be forgotten.
Lovely, just lovely.
I enjoyed her music so much. So sad to hear of her passing.
♾Missed
So sad to hear of her passing. I so enjoyed her music and voice. Such a talent.
What a voice, and what a sweet Texas Lady! 🥰 R.I.P., Nancy...
What a unique great voice. She is missed.
God I love this song.
Still can’t believe she’s gone
New to her music. UA-cam recommended this after watching Sufjan Stevens and The Polyphonic Spree ACL shows. I love her voice and the writing is good.
Great song!!
Miss her.
And Amy Ray paying homage, singing along in the chair next to her :)
Plus, Mary Chapin Carpenter singing harmony beside Nanci.
the lyrics seem profound, and yet the song overall feels pedestrian. makes me sad that it still brings me to tears.
Is she speaking English?
well, technically no; she's singing.
