One of my fav songs... Just listened on Spotify, sounds great! You've a great "real" country music voice, nice to hear your take on other classics... greetings from Ireland!@@annawescoat2588
@@happytobehere1111 thank you so so much!! Really appreciate that, and I LOVE Irish music so I just might have to post a song with my Irish whistle soon so stay tuned 😁👍
This girl has music in her blood, heart, and soul!
Thank you so much!! 🙏
A song by John Prine is like a dusty bottle of wine. The older it gets, the harder it hits. I've listened to many renditions of this song, and your cover is superb. The song has two sides, and I've been on both, and neither one is any place to find yourself.
Agree with you 100%! Thank you so much for listening 🙏
@@annawescoat2588 I listen to you often, I just haven't had the guts to speak up. Little Lady, you have the gift and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I especially enjoy your original songs, and " I Need You " is one of my favorites among all songwriters. Name is John, I'm 71 years old, and I've written a few diddys throughout the years and I would be much obliged if you would critique a few of my songs. If you have the time and you have a hankerin' to do so, just let me know and I'll give you my email. Regardless, I'll keep on listening and enjoying your gift. Night all.
This is the best cover of a John Prine song that I've heard. One of my favorite John Prine song too. The vocals and the music are top-notch. For the last two or three weeks I've started my morning listening to this version. I'm sure John Prine would've said, "Oh boy."
Oh thank you so much, that truly means a lot! He is by far and above one of my favorite songwriters, I was so sad when he passed away that I didn't get to meet him first. Hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
A great way to start your morning!
@@timothybyers I really appreciate that! 🙏
Great Prine song. And this performance of it is really, really friggin' good.
Thank you so much for that! 🙏
Mr. Prine would be pleased and proud. Bravo!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that 🥹🙏
John Prine. Much love
One of the greatest to ever do it! Thanks for listening 🙏🎵
Wonderful performance! I'm sure John is giving you a great applause from up above.
Thank you so much!! 🙏
This song transports me to another world. Thanks for sharing your gift with us. I found an old John Prine cassette tape back in 1980. Changed my world. He was a master. And so are you. My band plays this song for nursing home residents. The lyrics really don't match the bouncy happy melody, but maybe that is part of John Prine's genius. The world needs more music!
Thank you for listening! I agree John Prine was a genius, and he left too soon 🙏
Absolutely the best version of that song I've ever heard.
Oh thank you so much! I really appreciate that ❤️🙏
Such a clear voice,yes i had to listen again.
Thank you so much! Really appreciate that 🙏
Wow. My favorite John Prine song. Perfect.
Thank you so much! It's in my top 3 of his, right up there with Hello in there, and Paradise.
Beutifull cover of one great song❤️
Thank you so much! 😁
As an acoustic live player that plays this most nights I perform, this is fantastic. The vocals, the lead acoustic, and keys, absolutely amazing! Beautiful cover of a great song. Thanks!
Thank you very much!! I really appreciate it, I play it almost every show as well. I'll be releasing a better quality cover this coming Tuesday to all streaming platforms 🙏
I have been playing this song for about a year and have been using various tempos looking for the right feel based on my voice. Your version of this is practically perfect in my opinion and I will try to copy your cover if I may. I decided to reverse the second and third verses because I think it tells a better story and I don't think John would have minded. Thanks very much for this performance.
Of course! Take it and make it better I always say, thanks so much for listening! 😁🎶
Damn gurl can play...Prine is smiling from above ❤
Thank you so much!! Really appreciate that 😃 I just released this on streaming this past week too, if you'd like to listen to it in better quality 👌
Beautiful version, one of the best I've heard.
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate that 🙏
This women is great on this song...loved it all!!
Thank you so much!
It's a beautiful song and you have done it beautifully,thank you 👍😊
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that! ❤️🎶
I'm a big fan just awesome.
Listen to the tribute song to John Prine by songwriter Dennis Callahan.
Thank you so much! Prine was/is one of my biggest songwriting influences, so I cover at least one of his songs at every gig lol I've not heard of Dennis Callahan so I'll definitely check him out! 😄
John looking down with a grin from ear to ear !
Aw I sure hope so! Loved his music so much 🙏
I keep coming back to your version of this song and the vocals, guitar, keyboard,the whole thing is amazing, thank you 👏👏👏👍😊
Aw that means so much, thank you!! I have a version of it on Spotify/Apple etc too if you'd like to stream it! 😁🙏
Lovely voice. Well done!
Thank you!! 🤗
It takes one hell of a person to out-do John Prine on one of his best songs. What talent you have Young Lady!
Regards from Ody Slim
That means a lot, thank you so much! John Prine is one of my biggest influences, I try to do his music every show 🙏
Wonderful Anna. Great cover. John would have been proud.
Oh thank you so much, that means a lot considering he is one of my all time favorite songwriters!! 🙏
John would be SO proud! Nice job. Miss Anna. bravo BRAVO
Thank you very much!! 🙏
Her parents must be so proud of their daughter..to be such a magician and sing a John Prine Classic so beautifully.
Dan..NZ.
How sweet of you to say, thank you!! I come from a big musical family, but I ended up being the one who is blessed to do it for a living. Thanks for listening 🙏🎶
How uplifting for an 85 Yr. Old.Thank you so much. Tom.
Excellent job… he would be super proud!!! 👌👍
Thank you so much!! I love to think he would ❤️🙏
You really killed this! Very very good. Your voice and musicianship are outstanding! Thanks very much!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! 🙏🎶
@@annawescoat2588 You are very welcome. I have to tell you … I’ve listened several more times and your performance sounds better every time! I’m sharing and I wish you all the best. Take care👍🇺🇸
Anna Love your voice and what talent you have !!! Glad I found you on you tube. Your voice is the style of country I just love to listen to keep them coming !!!!!
Wow that means a lot!!! I really appreciate it! 🙏
@@annawescoat2588 Anna it is not only your voice its the way you play that Taylor. A Taylor already sounds great but in your hands it it just beautiful !!!! Yours is the kind of playing I just wish I could play that great !!! But all the practice in the world would never get me there you are special. Just love to hear this song and glad it isn't on a tape or I would have already broken it LOL. Good Luck on everything you want to do !!!!
Wow, you are so in your element, relaxed yet very focussed playing. You sound amazing ! Thanks for the tribute to John. He would approve. ❤
Thank you so much!! I have been doing this a long time, so it's second nature to be now, but something about John's music always puts me even more at ease-- he just had the way with melodies. I was so sad when he passed, I never got a chance to meet him and it was on my bucket list, so needless to say, try to do what ya can when ya can! 🙏
The best version of this song I have heard.
Wow thank you so much!! ❤️🎶
Wow, she nailed it! Wow a fun cover of a classic song. Great job!
Thank you so much! 🙏
Wow John would be so proud of you! Gave a straight up randishine! !!!! So sweet !!!
Ah thank you very much!! Really appreciate that 😁🙏
Very good lead break on the guitar. I wasn't expecting the piano part but it was very impressive as well. Very well done!
Thank you so much!! I like to keep things interesting 😆👌 this one is out on streaming platforms too if you'd like to listen to it in better quality 🎶
Thank you! I'll check it out!
Stunningly well done. John would be proud.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate that 🙏
Top notch in all ways.

WOW!!!!!!!
Thank you!!
so good love john prine
Thank you!! 🙏 I'm a huge fan of his, too. Actually working on an original song called "I miss Prine" 😁👌
Great rendition of a great song. John would be pleased.
Thank you so much!! I sure hope he would've, he's one of my biggest influences :)
WOW.......
Thanks for watching! 😄🙏
Love it! It does transport you to another place.
Thank you! Prine had a way of doing that with his lyrics 🥹
Another great cover of one of the best of John Prine songs. We think the version that he recorded with Nanci Griffith is the best one. Looking forward to finding more of your music. Thanks. Lydia & Rick
Thank you very much! He's one of my biggest influences, I love his raw lyrics and folk style melodies 🎶
I loved this great performance, Anna! Your voice is amazing and so is your playing! Peace and joy, Charles
Thank you so much, Charles! Really appreciate you taking time to listen and respond :)
Just came across this. Fabulous musicianship!
Thank you so much!! The studio version will be released on his birthday next week, 10/10 😄🙏
Great rendition particularly the guitar/piano piece
Thanks so much!! 🙏
This is a fantastic cover of a classic , beautifully delivered.

Well done and keep on with your fine talent.👏🎵👏👏😉
Extraordinary. .... well done, a joy to hear your version... JP would be proud of it..
Thank you very much! I sure hope so, I have always admired him and his writing style 🙏🎶
@@annawescoat2588 let me know if you're planning to tour the UK!
This is my favorite John Prine song and this is the best cover ever. I always tell people he wrote this song about my first wife.
Wow favorite cover ever?! I'm honored 🙏 it's my second favorite of his, right behind "Hello in there" ❤️
@@annawescoat2588 Yes, Hello in there is a great song. When I found John's music I was hooked.
Some covers make you feel something as special as the first time you heard it, this one's one of those for me.
That just made my night! Thank you so much 🥹
excellent. just excellent.
Thank you so much! 🙏🎶
Incredible Anna...as Bill Burlington said awesome tempo and love the new guitar. Love to hear your voice!
Thank you so much! I looove John Prine's music, he's in my top 5 favorite artist of all time :)
You do a wonderful rendition of this Prine classic. Kiddos
Thank you very much! I really appreciate it 😃🎶
Wonderful talented girl. A refreshing take that is usually a rolling slow (sad) pick.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that, John was/is such a big influence on me 🙏
Just terrific. The last concert I saw was John and he did close to two hours at the FOX in Atlanta. Your version is perfect.
Oh my gosh I'm jealous!! I so wanted to see him in concert but he died before I ever got the chance ;( thanks so much for listening! 🙏
Excellent cover, I love !
Thank you so much! 🙏
Holy cow! I enjoy listening to a lot of covers of a lot of songs. This one blew me away! Keep up the great work.
Wow thank you so much! I really appreciate that 😊🙏 where are you listening from?
@@annawescoat2588 North Carolina
Just amazing _ I am now a huge fan
How do you get the harmonies to sound so good
Wonderful voice nice guitar playing tasteful
Thank you very much! The harmonies are from a TC HELICON VOICE LIVE ACOUSTIC, which is actually my voice being layered, not robot voices lol it takes the key from the guitar chords I play, or you can manually set it. It's really cool!
My college friend and play gigs like this together now and then when I'm on break from grad school. Your performance is inspiring for me as we approach some winter gigs. It makes me realize the gift that musicians bring to events. I greatly appreciate organizers who care for musicians and hire them to stir the wind.
Thank you so much for listening! Glad I could inspire you, especially if it helps keep John's music alive 🙏🎵
Beautiful ! Thanks for posting.
Thank you so much! 🙏🎶
Wonderful, thank you
Thanks so much! Are you a John Prine fan? 😁🎶

Beautiful job!! My oh my 😊
Thank you so much! 🙏
Very nice. Thank you.
Thank you!
Very impressed. You,re a genius. ❤
Ahh I appreciate that, but John is the real genius! 🙏🎵
I'll tell you what ... in my 72 years I ain't NEVER seen nobody play keyboards with a thumb pick!!!😳 John Prine. yeah ... John Prine. For me April 7, 2020 is another one of them days that the music died.
Haha!! Sometimes when I'm live looping like this I have time to take it off, sometimes not 😂 I ADORE John Prine's music, he's one of my top 3 favorite songwriters ever!!
@@annawescoat2588 He'd get done with a song and I'd be shocked that anybody could share so much of themselves. Never wrote a commercial nothing, but my GOD could he write. James Taylor could do that, but not like JP.
@@annawescoat2588 I'm kinda binging your channel tonight ... and trying to sell an old Contessa 5 string banjo to a guy. I have a question ... when your tunes have harmony ... is that some kind of electrickle gadget ... or do you sing the harmony tracks or something?
@@oddshot60 so the harmonies are done live with the TC Helicon Voice live play pedal, I plug my guitar into it and it automatically detects the key! I can adjust all kinds of effects on it too, including how many harmonies I want/doubling/delay/chorus etc
Fantastic! Well done!
Thank you so much!
Just beautiful Anna. We all have to do what we can to keep JP's light burning bright: you've done that particularly well.
I appreciate that so much!! Couldn't agree more, his music deserves to be remembered for generations to come!
You are so good. Singing and playing. I am a big John Prine fan. I’m 65 and really don’t care for to many younger singers now a days. I know I’m just to set in my ways. I’ve listened to country alll my life. The old rock and roll. I love a lot of what is labeled Americana music. I like most anything that sounds good to me lol. But you young lady sound super good. You are someone I look forward to seeing what you bring out next. Does hubby play and sing also? If I have one regret in life , it’s I didn’t learn to play guitar. But I can’t sing and don’t know music at all except what sounds great, like you. Happy holidays to you and the family.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that 🙏❤️ my hubby plays drums and is a great music producer! I will be posting a lot more next year, since I'll be retiring from my other part time job and doing this full time 🙏
Nice tempo, lovely contralto, great poise.
Thanks so much, Randy! 🙏
outstanding job!!!
Thank you so much! 🙏
Oh wow, what a beautiful cover! I live that you pick, and play piano, unlike me who can just strum, LOL.
Thank you so much! 🙏🎶
Wonderful rendition of this song!
Thank you so much! 🙏
Beautiful!
Thank you so much!
Wonderfully Done
Thank you very much! 🙏
Dang, you nailed it so right!
Thank you so much! 🙏
It gets to the true painful feel of a badly broken heart. Great job young lady!
Thank you so much! 🙏
I love the feel you gave this one. Nice groove, nice singing. I would like to think John himself would like what you did.
I really appreciate that, I like to think he would, too! He's one of my biggest songwriting influences 🙏 I'm hoping to work with the same sound engineer that did John's album Tree of Forgiveness for my album next year 🤞🤞
@@annawescoat2588 I perform in a local grassy type trio and we do a few Prine covers. i always look forward to Spanish Pipedream in our set list. I could see us doing this song too based on the groove you gave it. Our audience generally loves our Prine tunes. Best wishes on your album.
amazing !
Thank you so much!
The backing track, guitar, piano and beautiful voice all become a wonderful rendition of John Prine's song. Thanks. 💕
Thank you so much! It's actually not a backing track, I play through a looper and record everything live in real time so I can play other instruments at the same time 😁🎵
@@annawescoat2588 That makes it all the more beautiful.💕❤️🥰
BEAUTIFUL RENDITION OF HIS SONG!!
Thanks so much!! :)
Excellent cover...all the best wishes, and a blessed Merry Christmas 👍
Thank you so much! Merry Christmas to you as well 🎄🎁
Wow! You are terrific.
Thank you very much! 🙏
